Can I extend a MBP 15" to mac display and another DVI monitor

Hi,
I have a MBP 15" and I currently use mac display as my external monitor for my MBP via Thunderbolt. Can I also extend it to another monitor with DVI ? Is there any converters that can do that for me.
Thanks

You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010 before ThunderBolt. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

Toggle how? What are you doing? Why do you have the MacMini connected to the TV? That is the whole point of AppleTV. It is a simple way ( in therory ) to get your content to your TV without having to plug your computer in to your TV.
it becomes an issue.
What does? What is the issue? What specifically fails or does not work?

Investigate the Air Display App to see if it will do the job for you.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Is your Mac connected to the network via ethernet. Mac's thatareI connected via ethernet cannot be located using "find my phone".

Why can't iTune Apps download to my Mac Mini and MacBookPro?

Because those App's are for iDevices like iPad's and iPhone's.
For Mac App's, you need to go to the > Mac App Store.

Can I save a file to the Mac HD and, automatically, also save it to Dropbox?, Can I save a file to the Mac HD and, automatically, also save it to Dropbox?

Hi everyone,
Can I save a file to the Mac HD and, automatically, also save it to Dropbox (or another cloud-based storage)?
What I would like to do is to have my Mac HD duplicated in the Cloud?
Is this possible?
Many thanks!
Bryan

Dear dwb
Many thanks for responding!
I am not that technical and I would be grateful if you could continue to help, please.
On the first bit - the Dropbox folder - this I understand - I have been using Dropbox for a number of months and it is fine.
The linking folders outside Dropbox does sound like it is what I would like to do but I don't know how to do it!
May I give an example?
If I have a folder on my Mac HD in Documents entitled "Tax" (nightmare!!) and in the folder I have some subfolders (e.g. 2011, 2012 and 2013) and in the subfolders I have files such as "Propeties", "Travel Days", "Interest", etc.
I would like to duplicate this folder (Tax) and all of its subfolders and files in Dropbox and AUTOMATICALLY update the Dropbox files everytime I update the file on the HD.
Is this possible with Symlink? And if so, how do I do it?
I really appreciate your help!!
Many thanks,
Bryan

HT5019 MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Can I have more than one application displayed at a time?

I would like to have my MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Question, how can I have more than one application displayed at a time? IE: I would like email on one monitor, Finder on my laptop, and iTunes on the other. Possible?
With extended desktop, it appears that I can only have one application presenting at a time. Sort of defeats the purpose of having multiple displays.
I am using the HDMI and the mini HDMI connectors.

Then do so.
Nothing special, beyond an intelligent human being, is required to make this happen.
Read the User's Guide, it covers basic functionality of the device including syncing content from the computer to the device.
FYI, marking your own question as "solved" without actually solving, will generally get you ignored.

How can I use my MBP's(late 2008) display as a secondary screen for MCP retina display?

I've got my new MBP retina dispaly and I would like to use my old MBP as a secondary display.
Is there any way to do this without installing different types of software like ScreenRecycler?
I tried to connect the only cable I have which is an HDMI to Thunderbolt cable but nothing really happened!

Thanks It actually works when you want to share the screen.
However I'm looking for using the old MBP's screen as a secondary display so that I can have two screens like an external monitor.
Also when you use the share screen it has some delay because of the wireless network.

Can I move hard drives from one Mac Pro to another?

I have two mid-2010 Mac Pros that I work with daily - one 8-core on 10.7.3 and one 12-core on 12.7.4. I would like to take all of the drives out of one Mac Pro and put them in the other and vice versa, essentially trading their content. It probably sounds pointless, but I would like to build the more powerful one out from scratch, and right now the less powerful one is nearly empty.
Can I simply shut off both machines and swap all of the drives in one for all of the drives in the other? I would keep them in the same bays in the machine I'm trading them with, but I'm unsure if I will screw something else up.

I've moved drives from a Mac Pro 1,1 to a 5,1 and they were able to boot the newer Mac, but to ensure that the OS was configured for the newer machine, I ran the appropriate combo updater once the drive was installed. If you're planning to stick with the drive rotation, doing that shouldn't hurt and might help even though the machines are of the same vintage. Note, however, that some commercial software keys in on machine specifics and/or the serial number to prevent piracy, so swapping drives can cause other problems.

How can I delete all the data in Mac pro and install the latest version of OSX Mavericks?

Hi,
I want to know why my mac become slow and so, I want to data and system and I want to install the latest version OS X Mcvericks. How can I do?
Thanks

Open the App Store app:
And, choose Mavericks:
Then download and run the installer. Tip: It would be a good idea to quit the installer before proceding with the install, so that you can copy it or move it to location outside of your Applications folder. That way the installer won't be deleted after you run it.
If you don't have a backup of your current Lion partition, the only way that you can do a clean install is to erase that partition, thus losing all of your data.

Can't find Leopard Installer Disc for Mac Pro and Need to Boot from Disc.

Any chance I can create a bootable DVD for my Mac Pro without having the original to duplicate?

This has to do with the mouse lag/freeze problem people have been having, by the way. Just about any 10 consecutive seconds that I use my mouse, it freezes then jumps a little ways away - which is seriously hampering my ability to finish this editing project.
It's been suggested this is a directory problem, which is why I'm looking for the boot disc. If anyone has any other advice on this, I'm all ears.
I've already changed out the hardware and run disk permissions, etc., to no avail.

Can i extend the range of an airport extreme with another airport extreme and use the ports on the airport extreme i used to extend the network?

That seems like a complicated question.
I have a Time Capsule (which the HD *****, but that is matter for another discussion) and want to extend the range with an Airport Extreme because I have 2 devices in one room that do not do wireless but have Ethernet ports.
The room has iffy WiFy connectivity too.
I want to know if the 3 ports on the Airport Extreme still work after configuring it as an extender rather than a router.

The thing is that I want to know if I can put the Airport Extreme at the edge of the room where the existing Base does not reach.
This will not work.
Remember, an "extending" AirPort can only extend the quality of wireless signal that it receives. For that reason, it must be located where it can receive a strong wireless signal in order to work effectively.
For example, let's say that your "main" router was on one end of the house and you want to extend the signal to reach the other end of the house. In this case, you would locate the "extending" AirPort about half way between the main router and the other side of the house.

Apps bought from the Mac App Store are made strictly to run on OS X. iOS apps are made to run only on iOS devices.
