Can i use my emac screen to play my x box on?

I want to put my x box next to my mac and was wondering if instead of having another television screen on the table, wether i can put the audio/visual feed from the x box through my emac monitor (my modem is also on the table so i could plug in my xbox live!)
Any advice appreciated

James,
Sorry, the eMac has no video in port (the mini sVGA port is out only).

iMac- How to use your iMac as a Target Display Mode display
Target Display Mode- Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I am unaware of any PCs that support connection via Target Display Mode. I have never tried it myself, so I don't know if it would work. All you can do is try provided you have an iMac that supports TDM and the proper cable adaptors.

Can I use my iMac screen as an external screen for my PC laptop ?

Thanks for your reply. After reading the article though, I'm still not really sure what the answer is. For example, you mention something that can be done, with some hurdles to go through, for 27" iMacs. Mine is a 21.5" iMac, but seems to have the same port you mentioned in the article. Or maybe it isn't. Anyway, I'm still not sure if it is possible after reading that. Interesting information though.

Can I use any smart phone to play webcam flash games?
I'd tried to use my smartphone ( Android 2.2 + Flash Player 10 ) to play some "webcam flash games" with browser, but all failed, is anything necessary must downloaded to smartphone first? or any other system (for example, IE9? Windows Phone 7?) can make it?

Have you not tried?
I would have thought you would prefer stereo. And to listen to music, the device you use needs "A2DP".

Unfortnately you cannot. Thunderbolt is an onboard chip that will require an updated Mac Pro. It is not a graphics card upgrade, but a full logicboard upgrade.
Apple has not updated the Mac Pro in 580 days - as of this post. Hopefully one is right around the corner...but I've been hoping for that for over a year.

My eMac screen goes grey, with a box appearing instructing me to restart my computer. It appears every time we use the machine, sometimes straight after login. Help!

tb8,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Refer to What's a "kernel panic"?. You can examine the /Library/Logs/
panic.log file to get a better idea as to the cause of the kernel panic (if necessary, post the last dozen lines or so for others to offer comments). You may need to do a safe boot (see below) after disconnecting all but the Apple keyboard and mouse to get at the log. If you have access to another Firewire-equipped Mac, you can use FireWire target disk mode to get at the panic log.
A general troubleshooting checklist and references are in Gulliver - kmosx3: MacOS X 10.3: Basic trouble-shooting. As Sherry earlier noted, disconnect all peripherals other than the original Apple keyboard and mouse to isolate the hardware. You can check if third-party add-on software is affecting things by Starting Up in Safe Mode; if that resolves the issue, you'll need to examine what's in /Library/PreferencePanes/ as well as what's listed under Login Items for your account.
If you can't startup in safe mode, you can boot from the OS X Install disk and run Disk Utility> Repair Disk from the Installer menu. If you don't have the Install disk handy, you can start the computer in single-user mode and use the Unix file system check utility fsck. Both procedures are described in Using Disk Utility and fsck.
You can further troubleshoot software issues (once you can get onto the computer) by creating a new troubleshooting administrative account and seeing if the problem disappears, which would indicate a problem with your account preferences. You can use Preferential Treatment to check your account's preferences. If kernel panics recurr when using a particular program, start with the preferences for that program (move the .plist files from /Library/Preferences and/or ~/Users/[username]/Library/Preferences to a holding folder on the desktop and restart or log out/back in, depending on whether the preferences in question are system or user level). Since you're seeing kernel panics shortly after login and not before, a user preference or login item is a likely suspect.
You can use MemTest to check your computer RAM; it's a more exhaustive test than the one built into Apple Hardware Test.
You'll also want to reference the <following User Tips Library links:
F.J. - kmosx: Kernel Panics ? Don't panic too !

Can i use elgato hd capture to play my ps3 on my imac 21,5 even if i don't have a tv?

Can i use my imac 21,5 as a display? I have seen a lot of reviews but they all use a tv screen and i was wondering if i can play with my mac screen without amy tv. Just using elgato. Thank you all

I would recommend contacting their tech support folks here if no one else has an answer for you. My guess is the TV isn't essential but only the Elgato folks would know for sure.

How can i use an external screen on mountain lion when i'm running on battery power?

Hey all:
I just upgraded from snow leopard to Mountain Lion, and i use external screen, keyboard and mouse all the time....
On Mountain Lion it's perfect when the power adaptor is connected as soon as you close the LID your external screen becomes the primary screeen and it's fully functional desktop (no mirroring or extension screen)
But the problem is when i'm in battery power, in snow leopard i used to close my lid my mac goes to sleep then i wake it up using the mouse and immediately open the LID so it doesn't go to sleep again and now i'm running on battery power with a primary external screen.
Any idea how to use an external screen on mountain lion while i'm on battery power? (i know i can use mirroring but i want just 1 primary screen and the laptop screen would be turned off )
Thanks for the help.....
Sherif

You can't with the lid closed, that's one of the rules for clamshell mode.

Can I use a touch screen monitor with my macbook pro?

I am doing a lot of photo organization and thought it would be easier if I had a touch screen monitor attached to my macbook pro. Has anyone tried this and if so, what brand did you use.
Thanks
Bob

All a touchscreen is going to do is replace your mouse or trackpad, you can't use two hands at once to gain any speed advantage organizing photo's.
Also it would have to be a pretty big touch screen, place your two hands over a 17" screen and most of the screen is blocked.
If you need something like that, talk to Microsoft, they have a "Big @ss table" that does that.
Gives me a backache just looking at those people

I was led to believe a Xbox game pad can be used on an iMac to play call of duty, yet my mac doesn't recognise it

I was led to believe that an Xbox game pad can be used to play call of duty black ops on the iMac. I cannot seem to get mine to work. Is there an app or something needed for the computer to recognise it ?

I think Call of Duty doesn't support controllers due to the balance implications in multiplayer.

Can I Use my eMac Hardware Test CD to test my G3 900mHz iBook?

Hi All!
Can I use my 1.25 mhz eMac's Hardware Test CD to test my G3 900mHz iBook? I'm getting different answers from people who haunt the forums on MacLife and MacNN and MacWorld, saying that it might or might not work or that the test programs aren't any different, and some say the Hardware test on TechTools covers all Macs so same's true of Apple test CDs. Since this is the Apple site I'm taking it to the horse's mouth here. What's the story?
Thanks!
Trudi

Rhonda,
To me, the way you rub shoulders with regular Apple users here is the way Apple people ought connect with their public. I'm not asking or expecting Apple PR/Tech/Admin to chat or even talk at all on these (their own...) forums, but it's dismaying to me that only one Apple guy/gal ever drops by on a blue moon to eavesdrop (much less comment) on any non-PR department filtered real-world qualms or feedback their own customers have. That you care enough for Apple's own customers manyfold over what Apple ought be doing CSR-wise sans pay makes me tip my hat to you and I hope some Mac magazine picks you up as a stringer consultant if not outright employee.

My daughter dropped her ipod touch 4g into water. We bought a new one 3 days ago which she has dropped. The screen has smashed! Can we use the good screen from the water damaged ipod to replace the broken one

Can anyone help please? My daughter dropped her ipon touch 4g into water which resulted in it being ruined. We bought her a new one three days ago and she has just dropped it and cracked the screen!!!
Cany anybody tell me, are we able to use the perfect screen from the water damaged ipod to replace the broken one on the new ipod or, would the water damage have ruined the screen too?
Thanks in advance

Your very best option would be to take it to an apple store and exchange it for an alike model which can be a refurbished, or new unit. The repair/exchange price is about 99USD. http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&viewlocale=en_US&geo=United_St ates&product=ipod&select=REPAIR_PRICING
