Can I use my iPad as an external monitor for MBA?

I have a MBA"13 (latest edition) and New iPad (3-d Gen), so I'm wondering: is it possible to get extra working space for my Mac using cables and adapters or wireless solutions (Apple TV 2-d Gen)?

No. There are some apps that allow you to control the laptop remotely from an iPad, however, but that doesn't sound like what you need.

    Or you can use home sharing for free, but it will only allow you to play movies and music from itunes.
    Or you can use any remote desktop software

    This question was solved.

    You know, this is just a thought.  I'm not sure the differences between the iq526 and iq770, but as I was looking around I found this article.  I don't know if it'll help, but you might want to take a look.  Evidently someone figured out how to use the HP touchsmart as an external monitor for his Dell laptop.

  • Is there a way to use an iPad as an external micrpohone for my imac?

    The internal mic on my iMac is dead (and I don't feel like paying a lot for opening in up and stuff), but external should work (I have tested with input from an iPod). So can I get around the problem by some how using my iPad as an external mic? I have found no way of doing this so far.

    not as far as I know
    at least not out of the box if some thirdparty app can let you I can't say for sure

  • Can I use MacBook pro A1211 with external monitor, screen has died but

    CCan I use MacBook pro A1211 with external monitor, screen has died but computer seems fine

    Hmm seems like this model has DVI out. You could just plug a standard DVI monitor into that. Or use the DVI connector (VGA supported with included adapter; S-video and composite video supported with optional adapters) adapter that came w/ your machine.

  • Can I use a PowerPC iMac as a monitor for my MacBook Pro?

    I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. I need an external monitor for it and have an old iMac laying around that I'm wondering if I could use. The iMac is the first gen white square all-in-one screen one. It's a G5, 20" 1.8 GHz from 2005. PowerPC.
    Can I connect my MacBook Pro to it to use as a second monitor? Or even to mirror the display? If so, what kind of connector cables do I need to make this happen?

    You need to use a product such as ScreenRecycler over a network connection. All of these products require the capability to boot the iMac.

  • Is it possible to use an iMac as an external monitor for a MacBook?

    What is the process (if any) to turn off the iMac's system and make it essentially an external monitor for the MacBook?

    No, it's not possible. Your iMac simply does not have a "video in" port for the MacBook's "video out" port. While Mike N. (nahyunil)'s option may give the illusion that you have two monitors, it does NOT turn off the system on the iMac. The iMac must be on and fully functional for that option to work.

  • How can I use the iPad as a sound source for my Mac?

    I would like to be able to record sound off my iPad, onto my Mac.  (I'm using a musical app that only allows me to save short recordings, so I would like to plug my iPad into my Mac and record the music into my Mac, into Audacity or something.)
    I know you can't just connect the iPad from the headphone jack, so I'm wondering what equipment I would need.
    I've heard that the iPad camera connector can be used to export audio out, does anyone know how that works?
    Or, are there any iPad apps available that will make exportable sound recordings of any sounds your iPad is making (from any other app?)  You know, like a screen shot, but for sound instead?
    (BTW, I am not interested in streaming music from my iPad.  I already know how to do that.  I'm trying to export audio from a musical instrument app I'm using.)

    Unfortunately that link doesn't provide the info I'm looking for...
    Answering part of my own question: it ISN'T possible to record audio on the iPad from one app to another. Technically not possible, so there are no apps that serve this purpose.
    So, I'm still looking for details on how to connect my iPad to my Mac and use it as a sound source.  I would like to record directly onto my Mac whatever sounds my iPad is outputting, by connecting the iPad to the Mac's audio input in some way.

  • Can I use a 2009 iMac as external display for 2007 macbook pro with DVI port only

    I have a late 2009 imac with minidisplay port and  a 2007 macbook pro with DVI port. I connected a mini diaplay port to DVI cable but all I get on the imac is a blank screen when I press F2. Can I use the imac this way?

    I'm not sure if it works with DVI but your late 2009 must be a 27". Try Command-F2 or Copmmand-Fn-F2

  • Can I use my 27" as an external monitor

    I've read several answers but they are confusing. In plain English, Can I connect my PC to use my new iMac 27" as a second monitor? If so can anybody tell me if I need any special connector, I already use the mini-displayport to connect a second monitor so I already have a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter. Thanks in advance.

    The m-DP to DVI adapter will not help you get a signal into the new iMac. It is a one direction adapter for sending the video signal out of the 27" iMac to a video device (display, projector, etc.) that uses DVI or HDMI.
    To use your new iMac as a display for your PC, the PC's video output signal must be a DisplayPort signal. You would need one of the converters that will convert a video signal from the PC to the DisplayPort signal required for the 27" iMac. Those converters are new and about US$149.00+. The converters have a m-DP so you can attach the PC+converter to the new iMac with a simple m-DP to m-DP cable.

  • Using a PC laptop as external monitor for MBP

    Hi!
    I just purchased my first mac. I want to have a dual monitor setup so I can have a bigger workspace when I design graphics on my Macbook Pro.
    Can I use my other laptop, which is a Toshiba, as an external monitor? The guy at Radioshack was worried that both the MBP and the PC laptop would try to send output signals and end up frying both video cards.
    Thanks!

    ScreenRecycler works very well. Contrary to what others have said on these boards, it is possible to use a second laptop as an external display.

    You will need a fast network connection between the two machines. Gigabit ethernet would be best, but performance is very good with 100 Mb. I wouldn't try using wireless to connect the machines - too much lag.

  • Can I use 24 inch iMac as a monitor for MBP

    I have a Mid 2007 iMac and want to use it as a monitor for a MacBook Pro or a Mac Air, is this possible??

    Yes, all Intel Macs can at some point offer screen sharing.  The faster the connection, the better the screen sharing speed.   Mac OS X 10.5 iChat offers screen sharing.  Mac OS X 10.6 and higher Sharing System Preferences offers Screen Sharing.   VNC is an alternative.  But it must initially be configured when both machines have working displays attached.  Once done, the machines that have their display shared don't need an external display.
