HDMI works as well as "composite" video.
appletv does not support composite at all.
i'm sure you meant component.

Cable Advice for connection to HDTV

I am waiting for delivery of a Pioneer LX5090 and a new MBP but I am confused as to the type of cable required to connect these two up.

For the video, you need a mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter like THIS ONE from monoprice.com, and an HDMI cable.
For the audio, you need a mini-stereo to RCA cable like THIS ONE from amazon.com (these are commonly available). The TV you list does not seem to have digital audio input (though it does have digital audio output).

What User authorization objects needed for connecting to SAP from xMII?

We eneter a SAP user and password for connecting to SAP from xMII to retrieve the metadata of the incoming IDocs.
When I specify a user with SAP_ALL user profiles, the IDocs are received properly in xMII. If I specify a user with privileges to run only certain transactions, IDocs are not received in xMII.
What user authorization objects are needed for this user to connect to SAP from xMII?
Thanks,
Sara

Sam,
I turned on the SAP System trace for this user and figured out the following auth. objects are required for receiving IDocs in xMII:
C_TCLA_BKA
S_RFC
S_CTS_ADMI
B_ALE_MAST
S_IDOCDEFT
The following auth. object is required for making JCO call to SAP from xMII:
C_AFRU_AWK
Thanks,
Sara

Which files are needed for connection to database in 11gR2?

I'm confused about the following files:
sqlnet.ora
tnsnames.ora
listener.ora
host file
If I understand correctly, sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora can exist in both client and Oracle database server and listener.ora should only exist in Oracle database server. I guess host file can exist in both client and Oracle database server.
I'm trying to understand which of the files are needed to access Oracle 11gR2 database using different tools such as
sqlplus, SQL Developer, and Database Control on Oracle database server or from a client machine.
If I'm on an Oracle database server, which of the files are needed for accessing 11gR2 database on that server for the different tools?
If I'm on a client machine, which of the files are needed for accessing 11gR2 database on an Oracle database server for the different tools?

Some of the config parms available to it apply only to the server side, some apply only to the client side, some apply to both.
tnsnames.ora is used by client processes to resolve a connect alias to a specicific host, port, and service. It is used ONLY by the client side of tns. You see it on host machines because those machines can also run client processes.
host file. Oracle doesn't know what this file is. Oracle doesn't give a flying fig about this file. It is used by the standard network software in the OS to resolve a name to an IP address. The only reason you even see it discussed in the Oracle world is because Oracle TNS sits on top of the standard OSI network stack, and uses it. Thus, if your tnsnames file has an entry like:
houston =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = vmlnx01)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = houston)
#==========tns will never know or care where vmlnx01 is. The request will be packaged and sent to the standard network stack with a request to "route this package to vmlnx01, wherever that is.". The OS network stack will then resolve 'vmlnx01' to an ip address, by one of several possible methods. ONE of those methods is to look it up in the local hosts file.

What cable type for connecting with gigabit port

What kind of lan cable that I should use for connecting with gigabit port from Time Capsule to get the fastest transfer rate. And what is the maximum rate MB/sec that could be?

You can use CAT5 or CAT6.
max transfer rate is:
Fast Ethernet has a theoretical speed of 100 Mbits/sec (12 MB/sec), while Gigabit Ethernet has a theoretical speed of 1000 Mbits/sec (120 MB/sec). That suggests a double speed advantage of Gigabit Ethernet over USB (60 MB/sec), but neither protocol hits its maximum. In reality, a typical USB connected disk is roughly equal to or lesser than the throughput of a shared drive attached over a Gigabit Ethernet network.
Over wireless network:
- 802.11b has a theoretical speed maximum of 11 Mbits/sec with a typical transfer rate of around 4.5 Mbits/sec (0.5 MB/sec) with an ideal signal.
- 802.11g has a theoretical speed maximum of 54 Mbits/sec, with a typical transfer rate of around 23 Mbits/sec (2.5 MB/sec) with an ideal signal.
- 802.11n has a theoretical speed maximum of 300 Mbits/sec, with a typical transfer rate of around 74 Mbits/sec (9.25 MB/sec) with an ideal signal.

Crossover cable needed to connect Switch to Airport?

I need more ports. I got more stuff to hook up than available ports on the Airport.
I picked up a switch but couldn't find anything in the boards on whether a crossover or straight-through cable is required to connect the two. I suspect the Airport port is auto-sensing but figured someone here would know.
Thanks.

Great, thanks Bob,
So it is just a matter of physical wiring then.
Still waiting for a transfer and restore from the TC to my reformatted iMac, then I'll be starting wiring.
The migration back from the Time Capsule over GigaBit to the iMac seems to take 5-6 hours, would that be normal (some 460 GB of data)?
The TC is the latest version with GB, Cat6 cables, plugged into the iMac on the Marvell Yukon Gigabit Adapter 88E8055 Singleport Copper SA....
Thanks...

DVI to S-Video & Composite plug cable needed for output to audio/TV system

I'm in need of a DVI to S-Video and Composite plug cable to replace the Monster iTV Link cable I used with my 12" Aluminum PowerBook. (http://www.monstercable.com/apple/Computer.asp) I use it to output to my audio/TV system.
Whereas the PowerBook used a mini-DVI port and had the audio output jack on the same side of the computer, the MacBook Pro uses a full size DVI port and has the audio jack on the opposite side!
I've been unable to find a cable so that I can connect up to a TV. Does anyone know where I can find one? Or perhaps a DVI to mini-DVI adapter? Or perhaps a VGA to S-Video/Composite cable and I can use the DVI to VGA adapter that came with the computer?
This is very frustrating!

Apple's video adapters have a ROM chip inside them with EDID data contained within the ROM. That is one thing that will definitely be different between the two. The NTSC and PAL version (M9267G/A) gives priority to NTSC. This could cause problems in a PAL country. If you hooked a PAL TV up using this adapter, you might get a rolling (non-synced) screen and you'd have no good way to recover since the image on the screen would be unusable.
I don't think one adapter would have any advantage over the other in terms of PAL picture quality. It would just be a question of compatibility as outlined above. That's my best guess.

Extra power cable needed for a SATA drive in a G4 AGP "Sawtooth"?

If one adds a SATA controller card and a SATA hard drive to a G4 AGP "Sawtooth", will a power cable like the one at the below link be needed, or would the necessary power cabling ordinarily come with the drive?

Thanks for the additional information, japamac.
That would be Left (or right angle 270º) for the data cable.
Which of the below data cables would be more appropriate, the 18" long one or the 39" long one?
[http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Micro%20Accessories/SATA18L>
[http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Micro%20Accessories/SATA39L>
Power connectors would be a left angle 90º to get wires going up.
I found the below two (the first is the same one linked near the top of this thread):

Is it okay to have one of the ends of a "Y" cable remain unconnected? I've done that with my existing ATA power cables, but I wanted make sure that that is also okay with the SATA power cables.

Cable Needed For Dual Monitors iMac 9.1

Hi,
I want to connect a (VGA) lcd screen to my imac 9.1 - Intel Core 2 Duo, but i have no idea what cable to buy...
A DVI to VGA, Mini displayport to VGA, mini DVI to VGA...
I want to buy this because i want to run 2 monitors, so i have more screen space
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
the iMac 9.1 (otherwise known as the "Early 2009" model) has a Mini DisplayPort output port http://support.apple.com/kb/SP507
So a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter is what you need http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MTA4MzU1NDg

Cable Needed To Connect To HDTV?

I have a Macbook and would like to hook it up to my new Vizio HDTV.
What cable do I need to accomplish this?
Here is a link to what the connection on the Vizio TV looks like in the back:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v370/WhammX/0805081307.jpg
Now, here is a link to a cable I already have, though obviously does not connect to that Vizio output:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v370/WhammX/Untitled-1.jpg
So what cable do I need to purchase so I can connect my Macbook to my Vizio HDTV?

I dont have any experience with vizio televisions but your best bet (to avoid confusion) is to just finish the set up you already have. You will need to buy a cable like this:
http://www.provantage.com/belkin-av21401-06~7BELD018.htm
to connect your laptop adapter to your tv.
If you want to hook up your sound, then you need a cable like this:
http://www.milkhoneyland.com/male-35mm-to-male-x-35mm-extension-audio-cable-p-77 2.html
Plug one end into your "Audio In" port on your television and the other into your laptop headphone jack. You should be able to find both these cables at any local store with an electronics section such as a Walmart or Best Buy.
Hope this helps

Replacement serial cable needed for an Apple Color Stylewriter 2500

Hello,
I have a question. I lost the serial printer cable for an Apple Color Stylewriter 2500, but if I order a replacement serial printer cable from we love macs, will the cable still work just as good as the original apple cable? I didn't want to have troubles with printing and data errors with the replacement cable. Or should I try to get as close to original one as I can?
Any help would be really appreciated. Many thanks.

Is Cable needed for USB Charger Accessory?

I want to buy the separate charger 'accessory' ($29) for charging by iPod. Do I need to buy a separate cable for it or does the cable that is used to sync/charge my iPod via my computer's USB 2.0 port work with it?
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill,
The USB Cable will work. But some models of iPod's dont charge over USB - what model do you have?

OS10.4.8 absolutely needed for connecting classic?

I have an eMac running Panther and just bought an iPod classic. To my dismay, I get an error message when I connect the classic to my Mac, saying this iPod needs OS version 10.4.8. Is there a workaround for this, other than coughing up 150 bucks to buy a copy of Tiger? I really don't need Tiger for anything else and I'm planning on replacing the eMac with a Leopard machine sometime in 09. This makes buying Tiger now even more painful. Any ideas appreciated.

Just as an update: thanks to the help of some smart individuals on this board (first and foremost "srojtas" who came up with a workaround to install Leopard on a sub-spec machine), I am now running OS10.5.6 on my 800MHz eMac and the iPod connects just fine.

Cable needed to connect airport extreme?

How do I connect airport extreme to older speakers which are connected to older receiver amp? Do I need USB to radio jack? Have Itunes on IMAC , os 10.4.11. I know I need to update os sy to 10.5. I have new Iphone. I want to use remote app to send music to speakers.

There is not an audio port on the AirPort Extreme, so it cannot be used to stream audio per your question.
An AirPort Express will do the job.

Firewire Cable Needed For File transfer Between Old iMac & New iMac.

I have an iMac G4 (Flat Panel) - just got the the iMac 21.5! Need to transfer files between old & new iMac.
Is the 6 pin to 6 pin the correct cable I'm going to need to get my files transfered ???

No. The new iMacs have FireWire 800, which is 9-pin. Older Macs have FireWire 400, which is 6-pin. You need something like this.
