Can I connect via HDMI and get 1920x1080?

Can I connect my MacBook Pro HDMI adapter up to my new Samsung Display via the HDMI connection and get 1920x1080?  Or is the 1080p the best display I can do with that connection?  Should I get the VGA adapter instead?

Not so fast please...
for HDMI rev 3.1 and above the AOK
However my SHARP 42" flat screen (model LC-42D72U) requires DVI MBP (adapter ) to DVI port on the SHARP.
I also have HDMI( and S video, component video and composite video) Also digital audio output from SHARP flat screen but for max UXGA resolution at horizontal frequency of 75.0 kHz DVI the way SHARP requires.
Fortunately Apple gave me DVI adapter free ( seldom heard nice four letter word )
"and a little help from my friends"...(apologies to the Beetles)
Let 'er rip and...

  • ATV2 - Can I connect via HDMI to TV and connect to outdoor speakers also?

    Currently have an airport express on my mac and i just bought Apple TV (2nd Generation). Essentially I would like to connect ATV2 via HDMI to my TV to play movies, see photos, and play music but I would also like to connect ATV2 (perhaps via optical output?) to a receiver or other speaker system to play music outside on my deck.
    Is this possible? I was told at the Apple store prior to purchasing that it is possible. Has anyone here accomplished this? Both connect to TV and also to another audio component??

    The answer to your question is yes.
    I currently have the HDMI running through my receiver to my TV for movies and music in the Home Theater, and the optical output (going thruogh an optical to analog converter) to the Multi-Room input on the receiver. This provides music to three other sets of speakers in the house.
    The Multi room input on my Marantz receiver only supports an analog input but with the converter everything works great.

  • Jetpack 5510l has no wifi signal - can only connect via usb to get Internet.

    Bought this device on a Thursday and it worked flawlessly - until Saturday.  The device has had a consistent connection to Verizon, but on Saturday the wifi began to 'go out.'  The device showed everything was working, but the wifi radio seems to have just turned off (after intermittently failing for a period of a couple hours).  We tried several different devices, none showed a working wifi signal coming from the mifi by the end of the day.
    What we have done so far:
    Rebooted.
    Removed battery (after shutting down), restarted.
    Used hard-reset button.
    Used web intefrace to turn wifi on and off - and on, changed ssid, passphrase, reset again (after each phase we also gave it an hour to see if the signal would return).
    Nothing has gotten the wifi from the device back online - it's as if either the radio or wifi antenna is completely broken.  We attempt to connect using 3 or 4 different devices - so it is most certainly the mifi.  There are no errors from the device - is there a debug / test mode?
    Our current workaround is to connect via usb to a Macbook and just share the internet connection - which works great, but makes travel a bit more difficult if a computer has to be connected to allow us to have a wifi signal (not from the mifi).
    Regards.

    Taking the Jetpack apart is going to void your warranty.  I would not suggest going down that road until your warranty is up.  Instead give VZW a call and have them ship you a replacement under the warranty service agreement. You have done a perfect job of isolating the problem to a wifi radio issue.  Its easy to recreate and confirm which will make the phone call fairly quick.  Unless you got sold on some kind of Best Buy warranty and prefer to go through them, VZW is going to be your best bet at getting a speedy replacement.

    I am a First time user of a Mac and I've gone toturn it on fr the first time today, i conected it to a HD ready LCD tv via HDMI and get the first gray 'loading' screen then an 'English' over the speekers then nothing else

    Make sure the TV's menu is actually set to connect to that HDMI port.
    Make sure the TV is 1080p and is setup to use that resolution on the HDMI port in question.

  • My TV has a combined HDMI/DVI slot, and says I can't connect my TV and Mac. Is there anything I can buy to fix this?

    I have been looking all over the net to see if there was something that I could buy to troubleshoot this problem, and I've had no luck with this. I'm running OSX on my 2007 iMac, and know what I would need to get to connect my computer to my TV. The only thing is, the TV has a combined HDMI/DVI. I looked on Samsungs website, and it said that because of this, I can't connect the 2. "
    Many of Samsung's 2005 and 2006 model TVs have a combined HDMI/DVI input jack. You cannot use the combined HDMI/DVI jack to connect your 2005 or 2006 model Samsung TV to your computer's DVI video output jack. If your Samsung TV has an HDMI only jack, you cannot use the HDMI jack to connect your Samsung TV to your computer's DVI video output jack. Samsung's 2005 and 2006 TVs do not support DVI to HDMI computer video connections."
    I am at a complete loss right now and have a feeling that there is nothing I can do about it. I do have the Roku connected to my TV, and bc I don't have the HDMI spot, we have to use the RGB slots to connect it. The Roku does have a HDMI slot to connect it to a TV with one, and even thought that maybe I could connect something to that to connect my computer to my TV. I've pretty much decided that if I can't get an answer in the Mac community, then there isn't going to be a way for me to connect the two. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!  - Patrick

    You tv probably has 2 seperate inputs, DVI and HDMI. You will need one these adapters if you want to connect via HDMI however on a machine as old as yours neither the  HDMI or DVI will only output video, not audio.

    Hello gman0700.
    Welcome to the HP Forums. I understand you are unable to produce audio through an HDMI connection. I apologize for the late response, but I will do my best to assist you. Before anything else, please answer these questions:
    1. What is the current computer's operating system? Does the same behaviour occur on multiple operating systems?
    2. The title seems to imply that there is no audio when connected to a television, using HDMI. Does this only occur when you connect to a television? Will it occur if you connect to something else using HDMI?
    3. Have you tried connecting to a television using VGA or DVI? If so, what are the results?
    As an additional suggestion, for now, I would review the television's manual to confirm that everything is correct from the television's standpoint.
    Please post this information as soon as you can. Thank you posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • What kind of mac would I need for Nexflix, basic search and email? Also, sounds silly, but can I connect an HDMI from Mac to tv?

    What kind of mac would I need for Nexflix, basic search and email? Also, sounds silly, but can I connect an HDMI from Mac to tv?

    Just an FYI.  The Macs named PowerMac date from early 2006 and before.  Use this tip to discover where to post once you get your Mac:
    Site map of Communities and Categories
    The cheapest Mac available new is a Mac Mini.   It is no bigger than many an external hard drive.  But the screen and keyboard and mouse must be purchased separately.  They support USB and Bluetooth keyboards and mice, and pretty much any DVI, HDMI, or displayport display.   Although the iMac is certainly an attractive option if all you want to deal with is deciding on a printer.   I still recommend getting an Apple USB keyboard for the occasional times you may need to troubleshoot startup issues.  Normally not a problem, but as it gets older some issues can be fixed at startup or diagnosed at startup.

    Using iPhone/iPad Recovery Mode
    http://ipod.about.com/od/iphonetroubleshooting/a/Iphone-Recovery-Mode.htm
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    Was just on the phone with Apple about this.
    The solution was as follows for me anyway...
    Go to your Finder
    Choose the Go Menu
    Choose Computer
    Choose your Macintosh Hard Drive
    Choose your "Library" Folder
    Choose the "Preferences" Folder
    There should be a folder called "Audio"
    Move that whole folder to the trash
    Empty the Trash
    Restart from the Apple Menu
    When you are back up and running;
         Choose System Preferences from the Apple Menu
         Choose Sound
          In the output tab you should now be able to make the HDMI "Sticky"
          Enjoy your sound over HDMI and no more dirty knees or broken backs unplugging the desktop speakers!

  • Connection to CRX via RMI and getting WeakReference value..... with an exception!

    Hi there,
    I have the following problem.
    I opened a ticket in Day Care Support system, about CRX users/group membership that got lost while synchronization with our LDAP server.
    Although when the user and the group had been created (and therefore taken from that same LDAP server), the membership was good.... but after some time the membership got lost......
    So what i am trying to do now is a Java program that connects to CRX via RMI.
    And gets the list of all the users from a group (aka membership).
    The idea is to monitor the membership each seconds.
    But when trying to get the property "rep:members" of the group, I have the following exception :
    javax.jcr.ValueFormatException: Unknown value type 10
              at org.apache.jackrabbit.rmi.server.ServerObject.getRepositoryException(ServerObject.java:13 9)

              at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:611)
              at sun.rmi.server.UnicastServerRef.dispatch(UnicastServerRef.java:322)"
    I searched a little bit and found that "10" is the number for type WeakReference.
    That's normal to me because memberships are stored in the group as a list reference to users linked to that group....
    Anyways, what's not normal to me is that when the type is "10" the API does not let me get the Value (cf. ServerProperty.getValues() method)

  • I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8?

    I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8? Any ideas for a fix?

    iOS devices use AirPrint to connect to a supported printer. OS X will use Bonjour to locate and connect to the same printer.
    With the Epson connected to your wireless router, when you open Print & Scan and click the plus button to add, does the Epson appear in a small box with a heading of Nearby Printers?
    If not and a window appears showing Default, Fax, IP and Windows in the toolbar, do you see the Epson with the Default view selected?

  • Can you connect via thunderbolt a mac book air 13" (2013) and a imac 21" (2013) together, using the iMac 21" as a 2nd screen

    Can you connect via thunderbolt a mac book air 13" (2013) and a imac 21" (2013) together, using the iMac 21" as a 2nd screen

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. As both have Thunderbolt, it's as simple as buying a Thunderbolt cable, connect them and press Command and F2 keys on the iMac, so the iMac will be used as an external display for the MacBook Air. If you want more information, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11302
