Is it possible to show a presentation from the original iPad via wireless on an older projector with no HDMI input?

is it possible to show a presentation from the original iPad via wireless on an older projector with no HDMI input? If so, what equipment is needed?

The ipad not support wireless projector yet.
The workaround is you are using computer that connected wirelessly [needs 2 wireless adapter] / via cable to projector and connected also to the wireless router.
You are controlling the computer via wireless connected to the router using remote desktop app like splashtop, teamviewer, logmein, vnc, etc. You must set the remote desktop port and app at the computer too as ipad app support.

Blu-Ray: Anyone ever replace the cd drive with a after market blu-ray drive

I have replaced cd drives in the older iBooks and back then they used a standard cd rom drive.
Anyone know if you can put an aftermarket laptop blu-ray drive in a MacBook?

I don't recommend you do that. I wouldn't trust rumors, but here is one for you. People have said that Apple might be releasing new macs with blu-ray support. So I don't recommend you replace the drive. Let me tell you again, it's only a rumor, so don't count on it.

Blu-ray creation on Mac? Surely so....

I'll try to ask this in a very straight forward way - I'm not looking for any step by step instructions, just general advice, and links to any other appropriate and knowledgeable sites or articles will be greatly appreciated.
I'm using a recent, fast 27 in iMac (March 2010), core i7 processor with 8 gigs of ram, OSX 10.6.5. Currently having great success with CS4 versions of PPro and Encore, having good luck burning SD DVDs. Am shooting 720p footage with a Canon T2i, and have been able to produce nice looking down-sampled DVDs (thanks to reading other forum discussions on here on the topic, with a great link to an excellent tutorial specific to CS4 PPro.)
I just bought the CS5 upgrade to everything, but honestly am a little hesitant to install it just yet. I've been offered a "dirt simple" (I know - famous last words) video job for a client and think I should probably stay with a workflow that I know works. They only want a <10 min DVD that will continuously loop on a small LCD-TV at the back of a trade show booth - so my widescreen DVD process, down from 720p HD, works fine, even better than I expected.
But it makes me want to try to produce true Blu-rays disks, especially since I'm so impressed with what Canon DSLRs can shoot, and PPro handles the format so easily - I understand it does an even better job in CS5.
So here finally is my question(s) - I'm looking for an external Blu-ray burner that will connect to this iMac via Firewire, and can be written to by the Mac version of Encore, CS5. Surely this is all possible - right?? I've seen lots of internal units intended mainly for windows, and I think one possibly discontinued internal for Mac Pros.
So - is there such a beast - an external Firewire burner for Mac? And - will Encore CS5 for Mac be able to produce a simple Blu-ray disk (a simple menu with buttons, no extra features or 3d or anything extravagant)? And is Toast a better or lesser option? I do fully realize that OSX cannot play a Blu-ray disk, so I know I'll need a true Blu-ray player hooked up to an HDTV.
THANKS for any advice!

Any external Blu-ray burner should work on Mac. Talk to these people:

I bought two external and two internal drives from them for my company's Macs. No drivers included or needed.

Question re set up: Samsung Blu Ray Disc - 55" Samsung LED 3DHDTV - Denon Receiver

We brought this package home yesterday. We have it hooked up as follows, pursuant to Best Buy's recommendations at the store where we bought it: We have the Bresnan cable box hooked into the Denon receiver in the appropriate place with an HDMI cord. We have the Blu Ray Disc hooked up to the Denon receiver in the appropriate place using an HDMI receiver. We have an HDMI cord in the spot marked "Monitor" on the Denon receiver running to the HDMI1 spot on the Television. Everything works fine, except for one problem. We can't watch cable television without the Blu Ray disc ON. If we are watching something on cable, and we turn off the Blu Ray disc, we get fuzzy white and black "ant races", but we can still hear the program. We have to unplug the Blu Ray Disc if we don't want it running all the time. I assume this could be bad for a Blu Ray. This does not make any sense at all. They should all operate independently of each other. I have also called technical support and they are stumped. Waiting for a call back from a sales person at the local store. Anyone out there have any ideas. The store sales people suggested that the best way to connect the components was with HDMI cords. I have already spent $300.00 on HDMI cords alone. Hopefully, someone out there has some ideas. THanks.

Hi again - I thought I would report back to you on the status of my issue. I stopped by our Best Buy store and talked to another person again. We wanted to see if we could bring back the Denon receiver and switch it out for another one. After explaining our situation, the guy talked to his manager. The manager had a suggestion that we try before switching out the receivers. I don't necessarily understand it, but you probably will. He said (and this is NOT verbatim - just kind of what I picked up out of the conversation) that because we were using two Samsung compenents (BD and TV), that they were trying to work with one another, but we had some kind of interference with the Denon receiver and the Bresnan cable box, and that something was getting caught up and trying to work back through the BD. Like I said, I don't understand it completely. He suggested we go to our TV menu and find where it says Anynet+. We were to check to see if that was turned on. He wanted us to turn it off. Once we did that, everything started working great. So we are up and running with a simple menu fix. Thank goodness it was that easy. I thought I would just report this to you so that in case you see any more similar problems, you can try this fix.
Thanks again for your help yesterday. Have a great day.

Cant play blu ray movies

Cannotplay blu ray movies on my HPE-570f running window 7

Hi,
As you're probably aware, blu ray optical drives have Two lasers, one for reading CDs and DVDs and the other dedicated to reading blu ray discs. With this in mind, it's always possible that the blu ray component of the drive has failed.
As a further test, uninstall PowerDVD 12 and MediaSmart DVD ( if it's still installed as both are Cyberlink products ).
When done, restart the PC.
When windows has reloaded, try installing the free 15 day trial of ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre 5 from the following link.
http://www.arcsoft.com/totalmedia-theatre/
When the installation has completed, restart the PC before trying to play a blu ray disc.

Can I burn a Blu-Ray movie on an Imac?

I'm aware of the issues involving Blu-Ray playback on Mac.....my question is simple though:
If I use Final Cut to make a blu-ray movie and purchase an external blu-ray burner, can I make a blu-ray video disk for playback on a blu-ray player hooked up to a television?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

OWC's hardware product descriptions, for example
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MRF8BDSD8X/
says that you can. However, current Apple software cannot burn to Blu-ray discs. Third-party software, such as Toast 10
http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/titanium/overview.html
should be able to burn to Blu-ray discs. I am not sure if this capability is just for burning data discs, or if it can create Blu-ray movie discs.

No sound when playing Blu ray movies

I just recently got Direct TV and now my tv has no sound when playing my Blu ray movies. I have a LCD 32 inch 32C100U1 model tv and a LG Blu ray player. When I look for audio on the TV menu I only see HDMI 1 sound and my Blu ray is hooked up to HDMI 2 input. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

How to connect Apple TV to DVD blu-ray home theatre

Hi guys, I am planning to buy Apple TV2 and I was wondering is there setup guide for connecting to HDTV and home theatre system. I currently have LG HDTV and LG DVD Blu-ray Home Theatre. They are connected with HDMI 1.3 cable and I had to get optical cable to get sound from TV to Home theatre.
How is Apple TV fits into that? I have 1 HDMI slot free on TV and 2 HDMI inputs on DVD system.
I was thinking just to connect Apple TV to DVD via HDMI? Would that put sound on home theatre system?
Thank you in advance.
ddrasko

You have read home theatre manual about playing sound from external device.
You doesn't need to connect home theatre to tv at all as you have get video from apple tv.
Connect video output from apple tv to tv(may carry sound along) and optical cable from apple tv to home theatre.
That will do. You can mute sound of tv(in case hdmi carry sound along) or using other function(on samsung ) and hear from home theatre sound from speakers.

How to convert Hi8 to iMac? Have 2 video cameras: Sony CCD-YRV98 video Hi8 and Panasonic SDR-SW20 digital video. Please provide the steps to convert to iMovie '11. Also, is there a way to burn in blu-ray?

I already have two video cameras. One older (Sony) in Hi8 and the less older one (Panasonic) which is digital. Between the two can it be accomplished to transfer the Hi8 video on tapes to iMovie?
I have the newer iMac 21.5" and also would like to know if it is possible to record this on blu-ray. The iMac didn't come with iDVD, which means I have to get that uploaded. Any other suggestions?

Sony Hi8 camcorder
No it is an Analog Camera - and have NO Digital-Out
I may be made a Wrongful assumption in that the - Panasonic digital camcorder - was a Digital 8 Camera.
If it is - it has a Digital Out (FireWire) and can playback the Hi 8 tapes from the other Camera.
If it is a miniDV Camera - it also have a FW-out (Digital out) - BUT can not play Your Hi 8 tapes.
Then there are not so many ways to do this.
If Your Panasonic digital camcorder - Has Analog in RECORDING ( not all have this, it was an EXTRA Cost ! ) - Then You can playback from the Hi 8 Camera to this and record onto a miniDV tape - to be played and Captured/Imported into Your Mac.
The Panasonic digital camcorder - Might have a feature - Play trough - that makes it possibly to use it as an Analog - Digital bridge - some can do this - But You've not told the exact type/no: etc - So I can not guess.
If this still do not work (The Panasonic digital camcorder do not have an Analog in connection/function)
- Then You need an Analog/Digita Converting box - from Hi 8 to this A/D-box then to Mac via FireWire.
There are several types and prices - I got a fairly expensive box due to that I've lot's of old VHS tapes in even bad quality. And this - Canopus ADVC-300 - has a function - Timebase Correction - that helps a lot in regard to drop outs and Audio slowly going out of sync. I just keeps perfect even over several Hours of VHS-tapes.

NEW Satellite A505 - Blu-ray won't play on WinDVD or Toshiba DVD player

I purchased a Satellite A505 (Windows 7) with a Blu-ray disc player that was pre-loaded with WinDVD, Toshiba DVD player, and one other player (?) - all this software was added 12/21/2009 (by the manufacturer). When I put in a Blu-ray disc WinDVD stops responding and I have to start the task manager to "end task." The Toshiba player says "media not supported." I used the recommended compatibility settings (Windows XP) and it says "incompatible application." I tried using a Sony Vaio w/ Blu-ray and had no problems with the same disc using WinDVD. I don't know what's wrong (and I'm not super tech savvy) - my settings, my drivers, my hardware... ???
I also downloaded the free trial of Corel's WinDVD 2010 and it wouldn't play on that either...
*Note - my model number is A505-S6012 but I can't find this as an existing model on any of the Toshiba sites. It was delivered to the store around 1/4/10, so it's brand new. The A505-S6990 has most of the same features though.

jacuielaura,
I had the exact same issue with the Win DVD BD that was preloaded on my A505-S6014 when I purchased it. I myself also downloaded the Win DVD 2010 free trial and it did not work. Reason being is that they are only allowing people to trial the DVD version of Win DVD 2010 and not the Win DVD BD 2010. I also tried Cyberlink's PowerDVD and it worked but it digitized terribly. So I uninstalled both trials and went to support.toshiba.com and found what I needed to fix it.
I recommend you uninstall the original Win DVD BD version you have and any trial editions you downloaded and follow what I have listed below to fix your problem.
This is only a recommendation. Uninstall and install software at your own risk. If this fix doesn't work for you then you will have to call Toshiba and request a disc to reinstall your original software you uninstalled.
This is how I fixed mine:
Go to Support > Download > then choose your category (Laptop) then your Family (Satellite) then you're model #(A505-6012). Or you can just enter S6012 in the search box and it should bring up a list of all Laptop models with S6012 in them. Choose yours and click Go.
Now from the two drop down lists choose which Operating system: (Windows 7 64 bit) should be what you have, then choose Blu-Ray in the 2nd drop down list.
Download and SAVE these files to your desktop or My Downloads folder so you do not have to search for them again after you reboot.
You should now see this listed:
WinDVD BD for Toshiba for Windows 7 (32/64)(v8.0; 11-05-2009; 176.1M)
Also you will need to download the (Intel Management Engine Interface driver) which is listed in the drop down list under Utility (2nd page):
Intel Management Engine Interface for Windows XP/7 (32/64)(v6.0.0.1184; 10-08-2009; 6.39M)
Reboot after each installation even if it doesnt tell you to.
After both downloads have been installed and the OS is completely loaded again, insert a Blu-Ray disc and hopefully it should automatically play.
P.S. When playing Blu-Ray's I turn my power management to Performance. This may also help.
Good luck!

HP HDX 16 Blu-Ray discs will not play!

I have researched this Blu Ray issue for days without a real solution. I am running Vista and notice many people feel upgrading to windows 7 was the issue, but I do not believe it is since I am still on Vista, with the same Blu-Ray disc issuey here. Also I do not have Itunes another popular fix. I did upgrade all the drivers I could and all the software I could from HP but did not resolve the issue. I can play regular dvd discs but not the Blu-Ray ones with the exception of 1. Surprisingly it is a newer one also. Updating the Media Smart has also caused a problem with not being able to use the keyboard light at the top to open the dvd drive. (one problem at a time though.)
The DVD Lightscribe drive shows as: HL-DT-ST-BDDVDRW CT10L ATA Device
After years of this issue being a problem does anyone have a real fix solution? Or Does the Blu-Ray player need to be replaced and with what.

HP MediaSmart DVD software and major Blu-ray issues

In September 2010, I bought an HP Pavilion Elite HPE 250-f desktop computer (running Windows 7). This computer was advertised as having a Blu-ray DVD player, as well as players for regular DVDs and CDs. From September 2010 to October 2014, I successfully played regular DVDs and CDs. But in October 2014, for the first time, I needed to view a Blu-ray DVD. Specifically, I needed to view the "Divergent" Blu-ray.
When I tried to play the "Divergent" Blu-ray (which was made in 2014), the HP MediaSmart DVD software (version 3.1.1.3317) and the Windows Media Player detected the Blu-ray but were not able to play the Blu-ray.
Next, I downloaded the Media Player Codec Pack, http://download.cnet.com/Media-Player-Codec-Pack/3000-13632_4-10749065.html. This Codec Pack was supposed to help Windows Media Player play the Blu-ray. That did not work.
I then downloaded Cyberlink PowerDVD 14, which played the Blu-ray for only about 7 seconds before crashing.
I downloaded TotalMedia Theatre version 6.0.1.123. However, this software did not even detect the Blu-ray.
Recently, I decided to revisit this issue. I installed the most advanced version of HP MediaSmart DVD. I installed HP TouchSmart DVD, version 4.1.2.5122.
TouchSmart flawlessly played disk 1 of the 2-disk "Star Trek" Blu-ray set (made in 2009). However, TouchSmart was not able to play the "Divergent" Blu-ray at all. After failing to play the "Divergent" Blu-ray, TouchSmart attempted to play disk 2 of the "Star Trek" Blu-ray set. TouchSmart played disk 2 with poor video.
Next, for some strange reason, TouchSmart became totally inaccessible. I could not start TouchSmart. I rebooted the computer. TouchSmart was then able to play the "Divergent" regular DVD, but was unable to play the "Star Trek" Blu-rays at all.
I did a system restore to the point just after the installation of TouchSmart. TouchSmart played regular DVDs well, but still could not play the "Star Trek" Blu-rays at all.
Next, I got rid of TouchSmart and installed HP MediaSmart DVD, version 4.1.4229 (sp49489.exe). MediaSmart 4.1.4229 flawlessly played the "Speed" Blu-ray (made in 2006). However, MediaSmart 4.1.4229 failed to play either of the "Star Trek" Blu-rays. And after failing to play the "Star Trek" Blu-rays, MediaSmart 4.1.4229 played "Speed" with poor video.
So, it appears that any specific version of HP MediaSmart DVD software will play old Blu-rays successfully, and will then subsequently fail to play more advanced, more recent Blu-rays. After that version fails to play the more advanced Blu-rays, that version will play the old Blu-rays, not as flawlessly as before, but rather with poor video quality or not at all.
I have read many threads on the HP forums and on other forums about people having trouble playing Blu-ray DVDs on a wide variety of HP computers. I went back to the specifications of my HP computer, and I found the following disclaimer about that computer's Blu-ray capabilities:
As Blu-Ray is a new format containing new technologies, certain disc, digital connection, compatibility and/or performance issues may arise, and do not constitute defects in the product. Flawless playback on all systems is not guaranteed. In order for some Blu-ray titles to play, they may require a DVI or HDMI digital connection and your display may require HDCP support. HD-DVD movies cannot be played on this Desktop PC. Some HD DVD and Blu-ray advanced features may not be supported. CPU power is dedicated to support HD DVD and Blu-ray playback functions. It is recommended that you close all other applications before and during HD DVD and Blu-ray playback. HD DVD and Blu-ray movies will only play through the HD DVD and Blu-ray player software. Advanced Access Content System (AACS) keys are integrated into your PC for copy protection purposes. Occasional renewal of the AACS key is required, and easily done by connecting to the internet.
I believe that I have gone way above and beyond ordinary diligence, to try to get my computer to play Blu-ray DVDs. The disclaimer states that certain issues may arise and that flawless Blu-ray playback is not guaranteed for all systems. But certainly my frustrating experiences, and the frustrating experiences of others, go way beyond the leeway given by HP's disclaimer, do they not? Has anyone thought about the possibility of a class-action lawsuit against HP?

In "Device Manager", under "DVD/CD-ROM drives", I see the following:
hp BDDVDRW CH20L
I click on "hp BDDVDRW CH20L", and I see several tabs.
In the tab marked "Driver", we have the following:
Driver Provider:   Microsoft
Driver Date:           6/21/2006
Driver Version:     6.1.7601.17514
Digital Signer:      Microsoft Windows
In that same tab, clicking on "Driver Details" gives us the following:
Driver files:      C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\cdrom.sys
Provider:           Microsoft Corporation
File version:    6.1.7600.16385 (win7_rtm.090713-1255)
Copyright:       Microsoft Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
Digital Signer:   Microsoft Windows
I think that, back in October 2014, when this Blu-ray issue first came up, I updated the driver. That may be why you see the following different versions :
6.1.7601.17514
6.1.7600.16385 (win7_rtm.090713-1255)
So, how would I update the firmware? To what version should I update the firmware?

Fcpx, Blu-Ray & toast 11 = Burn both files in the img?

Looking to burn a Blu-Ray that is compatible with a standard home Blu-Ray player.
short:
On a FCPX Blu-Ray IMG, do you include both files in the burn or just the BDMG?
Long:
Job is all 5D mark 3 footage.
I have FCX 10.0.8. & output finished job to "share" BLU-Ray.
Result is a .IMG that when opened holds a BDMG file and a folder labeled CERTIFICATE.
I have a Mac Book Pro with a Blu-Ray burner.
Also have Toast 11 with the DB add-on.
What I don't have is a standard home Blu-Ray player to test the burn.
I do have a Blu-Ray player on my Mac but it's not the same as testing a standard home Blu-Ray player because on a home player when you put the disc in it either plays or doesn't.
Anyone experionce this before? And knows the solution to this diddy?
Thanks!
I would spend hours searching all the... results, as I normally do, but need to get it out tonight :-}

I think I found the answer. Looks like Both go in the burn.
1st, sorry for the short hand speech and typos. (BDMG should be BDMV)
In videohelp form it was suggested that both the BDMV and the CERTIFICATE should be in the burn.
http://forum.videohelp.com/threads/325212-How-to-burn-a-BDMV-folder
Incase someone is searching for this same question, I thought I'd give the answer I found and break it down a little further.
Q: How do I output to Blu-Ray in Final Cut Pro X? I don't see a Blu-Ray option.
A: In 10.0.8 that option is hidden from the main "share" menu.
Here is Apples "how to" page on how to find it, along with other info on Destination Prefs:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12718
Basically you select Share, then the plus sign "Add Destination" located at the bottom of the list, then Blu-Ray.
When you select Blu-Ray, in the preference window, the first pref. is "Output device" with two options your burner or hard drive. If you pick hard drive you get a .IMG that you would open and place the contents into a burn.
Q: What Blu-Ray burner is in your Mac?
A: a Panasonic UJ267
Very overpriced and had to modify (voided the warranty) in order for it to fit in my 15-inch, Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
I switched one of the covers on the Panasonic with my existing to get the right fit. One screw hole had a "no tamper" label that I destroyed, so that voided my warranty.
Q: why not an external?
A: I have one but it's big and needs AC power so it's not easy to move.
This is soooooo much easier because it's so mobile.
24 Gig backups of all my stuff for a $1 per burn is priceless.
Best of luck!

Did you even read the article you linked to?
Here's a quote from it
"The video itself looked fine when it played properly, but it stopped and started constantly, and often displayed with huge, ugly artifacts. And at times, the app would freeze completely and require a force quit.
Just to make sure it wasn’t a problem with one Blu-ray disc, I tried some others. With Hot Tub Time Machine the results were much, much worse. It got a few seconds into the United Artists logo before the movie and completely froze playback. On several attempts. With David Cronenberg’s The Fly, playback was generally better—but the software played the ‘making of’ movie instead of the actual film. I thought there might have been a preference to help with the movie selection, but—wait for it—the Preferences item didn’t do anything when I selected it."
Not very promising is it
