Can I connect an Apple 15" external LCD display to a G4 Powerbook or iBook?

Will this type of display work with the G4 Powerbook or and iBook with a VGA adapter or does it require a Power Mac?
Thanks,
Randy

I use an Apple DVI to ADC Adapter with a MacBook with an external Apple Cinema Display HD (23-Inch) with no problem.

  • Can't set resolution to match external LCD display.

    Hi all.
    I'm having trouble getting the screen to display on my 42" LCD without cutting off the right/left edges.
    I've found two sets ways to try and fix this in the Nvidia control panel:
    1-setting the ### x ### resolution doesn't help.
    2-when setting up the external monitor all the resolution settings are grayed out.
    Also, changing my format settings on the tv itself makes no difference.
    I'm using an 9600M GT and got the same result before and after updating the drivers.
    Anybody have any ideas?

    What I would try is the binary nvidia drivers and use the nvidia-settings tool, it seems to work better for setting screen resolutions on Nvidia cards, in my experience. It lets me set resolutions that xrandr won't let me, like 1280x720 on my 4:3 monitor if I feel like it (I had good reasons to do it lol, and no, I didn't stretch it out, I had black bars on it). I have it set to output 1360x768 to my LCD TV and I set it through nvidia-settings (though that was the default on it, so maybe a slightly different situation, but similar).
    After xrandr change KDE says that it is 1360x768, but on monitor's OSD I see 1280x768…
    Well, one of those is right, one is wrong, find out which is which Sometimes on my TV, if I'm in something with a lot of black space (full screen video or something), and I switch inputs, my TV will sometimes say either 1280x768 or even 1024x768, even though it's still in 1360x768). Maybe try taking a screenshot or something, and then an image viewer will tell you the real resolution of your screen.

  • Brand new macbook pro 15" when connected to external LCD display in high resolution ,flickers often

    Hi,
    I have brand new macbook pro 15" with retina display.
    I have connected external LCD display (Samsung B2230) using Apple VGA adaptor & thunderbolt port. But LCD display flickers quite oftenly. I read community blogs where many macbook pro users like me are facing similiar issue.
    There is no problem with LCD display as it works fine with Lenova laptops.
    Can anybody please provide me the solution to this problem.?
    Regards,
    Sam

    If you can find such a thing.  I really doubt that exists since USB is a data connector not a video connector.
    would allow me to run the audio through my stereo.     
    That would depend on this adapter.

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Yes you can do all that without needing to keep plugging things in and out. You will still need to manually turn on the receiver and turn down the volume from the tv though.

  • My TV is mounted on a wall so I can't connect the Apple TV device. Is it possible to connect to an HD Cable Box and send signal to TV that way? Other problem is that Box only has one HDMI socket .. Help!

    My TV is mounted on a wall so I can't connect the Apple TV device. Is it possible to connect to an HD Cable Box and send signal to TV that way? Other problem is that Box only has one HDMI socket so would also have to use a splitter. Tried Apple Support but couldn't offer a solution. I can't be the only person with this issue surely?
    Help!

    No, unless you are using a home theatre system already, your only option is to connect to the TV.

  • Very slow downloads Network test says "can't connect to Apple"

    Have a 1st generation ATV and it has been working great for years until now. When I have slow downloads so I go to "Test Network" and it fixes the problem, but not any more. Now it says "can't connect to Apple"
    Funny thing is it can connect but it is very very slow!
    I have tried most everything I can think of this has got me stumped!
    -- Speed test on my network shows I am getting 12 Mb/s download speeds with Comcast cable
    -- using an Apple Airport extreme
    -- I have NOT done any changes to my network
    -- Have done a factory reset on ATV
    -- rebooted my Airport
    -- Made sure all my updates have been done
    -- Hooked ATV up with ethernet cable to network that just seemed to make to worse! strange?
    -- look all very the boards
    Does any one have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    I have the same experience, i.e., "Test Network" used to improve slow downloads, but now when I attempt it, the test download progress bar moves, but then I get the "can't connect to Apple" error message. I have not yet found a solution to this, however it may be related to the following problem:
    ATV does not remember wireless network password.
    ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
    I am having to re-enter the wireless network password every time the ATV starts up, and sometimes during startup it appears to be in a Catch-22 situation where it is trying to access the network but cannot because it has not yet let me manually enter the password, so it spends a long time with amber or amber plus white light blinking, and then more time with solid white light before finally showing the startup sequence, about half an hour after being switched on.
    See post about password problem at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=13182180#13182180, which also lists my equipment.
