Can i display my PS4 on the iMac screen?

Can i display my PS4 on the iMac screen just by using a Mini Displayport like this one: http://i.simpalsmedia.com/999.md/BoardImages/900x900/9f845806fc264ec4a153c5a8815 a8e8d.jpg
If yes, what software should i use?
I got Apple iMac "Core i5" 2.9 21.5-Inch (Late 2013)

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
No. Target Display mode only works with other Macs. In the past there were an adapter to connect a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 to a 27-inch iMac, but it no longer works with Thunderbolt iMacs like your computer.

  • How do i display multiple pages on the iMac screen in safari

    When I open a new web pages in Safari, it closes the current page.  I want to be able to open another (i.e., split screens) in safari without closing the current page so I can work between the pages.  I'm new to the iMac, but I had this feature on my Windows PC.

    Terence,
    Thanks for the information.  Although this allowed me to open multiple windows, they are all show in a format too small (large thumb nails) to use.  I'm looking for a way to do a "split-window" function where two windows are shown (at the same time) larger enough to move between the windows and perform functions such as copy, paste, edit, or drag data from one to the other.
    Thanks

  • I have a Thunderbolt iMac 27" with a Thunderbolt Display attached.  I would like to use the iMac and Thunderbolt display in Target Display Mode for my new Thunderbolt MacBook Pro.  So far, it seems I can only use the iMac screen itself.  How do I do this?

    When I press the Command + F2, the iMac screen becomes a secondary for the MacBook Pro, and the Thunderbolt Display becomes the primary screen for the iMac.  I was hoping that both screens would become secondaries for the MacBook Pro.  Does anyone know how I should proceed?  I have tried to connect the Thunderbolt display directly to the MacBook Pro, and the iMac to the Thunderbolt Display via the separate Thunderbolt cable, but there was no difference.  And since the MacBook Pro only has the one Thunderbolt port, I'm not sure how to proceed.

    Yes, eww, the language definitely states two thunderbolt displays, but I can understand the confusion and was siding with how they could make the mistake to think it would work like they want it to. My appologies for not being clear on that point, but I think you make it clear that the language in the ad says nothing about an imac.
    Having said that all the language about TB would suggest that this would be possible. http://www.apple.com/thunderbolt/
    High performance on display.
    Thunderbolt I/O technology provides native support for the Apple Thunderbolt Display and Mini DisplayPort displays. It also supports DisplayPort, DVI, HDMI, and VGA displays through the use of existing adapters. So you can connect your Apple LED Cinema Display or other display, along with multiple high-speed devices, all from a single port.

  • IMac connected to TV, can I turn the iMac screen off?

    Hi,
    I connected my Intel (white 20") iMac to my TV and I'm using the TV screen as the main screen with the menu bar and all that. But the iMac screen is always on, until you launch Front Row or Hulu..etc. then the iMac screen turns off. Is there a way to make the iMac screen to stay off permanently?
    Thanks
    Gene

    On the MacBook, you can wake it while the lid is closed, and the built-in display will not be used. You can then open the lid, and the built-in display should still stay off. At least, that's how it worked with my older PowerBook. So the MacBook design is capable of doing it without any additional software; Remote Buddy just takes a short cut, which is why it is kind of cool, like it does to change the "Main display" from one to the other, or "Toggle mirroring," without opening System Preferences Displays pane Arrangement tab.
    I was exactly where you specified in the Remote Buddy menu. The brightness control can adjust the brightness exactly like the built-in control, but even the lowest setting is not an OFF setting.

  • My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet".How can I change ip address?

    My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet". If this is the root of the problem,how can I change ip address?
    Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.

    First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
    Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
    After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
    If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly.

  • How can i display a portlet in the Edit view only ?

    Dear All,
    I'm developing a portal in which the end user can change the content of the portal page (personalize) using Edit smart link and i ask How can i display a portlet in the Edit view only ? not shown in the production view ?

    Last time I heard with Oracle they said the only way is to look at the current URL. If it contais _mode=16 then we are in edit mode.
    This is a function I use:
    FUNCTION inEditMode return boolean is
    bEdit boolean := false;
    begin
    if PORTAL.wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('_mode', 'qaz') = '16' then
    bEdit := true;
    end if;
    return bEdit;
    end inEditMode;
    Kind regards

    If you have an iPad 2 or 4S you can use airplay mirroring to show PDF's."
    Is there any other ways?
    I have Imac, Ipod touch, Iphone 4 but do not have ipad2 and 4S.

  • Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    There have been many issues reported with Kodak cameras - serach the forums for them
    Actually the best practise is to use a card reader to import your photos, verify that they are imported ocrrectly and wait at least one backup cycle and then use the camera's format command to reformat the card and erase it - this assures no lost photos and always having the card properly formatted

  • Displays not sleeping at the login screen

    Since I upgraded(clean installation) from 10.4 server to 10.5 server none of the client station displays will sleep at the login screen. I have 3 labs with Intel iMacs running 10.4 and 10.5. I have Workgroup manager set to always manage the Desktop in Energy Saver and put only the displays to sleep after an hour. This used to work with 10.4 server even at the login screen. Is there a way I can get them to sleep at the login screen?
    George

    Well I am still trying to figure out the issue however I have made some ground. It seems that my 10.5 Intel iMacs screens appear to sleep if set it to less than an hour like 45 minutes or 15 minutes but my 10.4 PPC macs worked the first day at 15 minutes but currently are not sleeping. I will keep trying...

  • Darkening the iMac screen

    I have my new intel iMac connected to my TV through HDMI.
    While I'm watching stuff on my TV screen, how can I turn off the iMac screen?
    Phil

    VLC media player supports a setting where it blackens the imac screen. it doesn't turn it off, but it just puts a black screen on it.
    unfortunatly, there is no way to turn off a single monitor
