Can I use the screen of my iMac G5 by linking it to my MacBook Pro?

Hi.
I've seen a lot of producers studio pics, using 2 monitors, it seems to be they've connected there MacBooks up to a 24" + TV/computer screen,
I would like to know how to do this, what cables i need etc. Also, I havent got a spare monitor anywhere, but i have a iMac G5 (power PC) in my studio, could i possibly link my macbook up with my G5, so i can work on my MBP and use the screen of the G5 mac?
Thanks!

What cable you need depends on which ports the monitor and computer have. If you want to use a monitor built into a computer, the cable required is an Ethernet one unless otherwise noted; this also requires setting up Virtual Network Computing.

Can i upgrade the new OS X Lion for free if i bought my MacBook pro 13" around Apr 2011 in store?

Hi eveyone,i just check online that you are entitle for a free upgrade to new OS X Lion if you buy a mac book pro from June to July 2011. Can i upgrade the new OS X Lion for free if i bought my MacBook pro 13" around Apr 2011 in store?

When it says on Apples website that it runs from june - july 2011, I seriously doubt you can get it for free when you bought it already in April.

Can i use the motherboard that i currently have in my dell in my macbook?

i just bought a macbook air 2008 from ebay and it does not come with a logicboard/motherboard. i have a dell inspiron 1545 that is in fine working condition. can i use the motherboard from my dell in my new macbook?

Macbook Airs are extremely compact, and because of that, every internal component has been painstakingly designed to fit inside of this Mac. Their is likely no other motherboard/logic in existence except for those designed for the Air that will fit into your computer. Those logic boards alone cost about 75-90% of what a new Air would cost from Apple. I hope you didn't spend too much money on your new aquisition.

Can't remove the screen lock by PIN and can't use the screen to receive calls

Hello, I have a brand new SONY Xperia , Model Number D5803, Android version 5.0.2. , Baseband version 8974-AAAAANAZQ-00063-42, Kernel version 8974-perf-g3f600d1. , Build number 23.2.A.1.62.
I set a screen lock by PIN. However when I receive calls I can’t take them, because the screen in locked.
I tried to turn off the screen lock, but when I select the “ Screen lock” menu and after entering the correct PIN, the following items are not active “None”, “Slide” and “Pattern” . So I can't select “None”
The only active items are “PIN” and “Password” .
Please advice how to remove the screen lock by PIN. I hope this will help to be able to receive calls.
Thank you

To enable None and Swipe options, you need to go to Settings -> Security -> Clear credentials. Then those options will become active again.
However, you should be able to take calls even when you have PIN security, can you describe what shows on the screen when you have an incoming call while screen is locked?

You can't turn the sensor off or on.
First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again. If thsi does not help, try to reset all settings in Settings/General/Reset -> reset all settings

I want to view the screen of my dslr camera in live view on my macbook pro via the hdmi port, is this possible?

I would like to view the output from my DSLR on the screen of my macbook using the hdmi port. I know I can connect to a tv to send images "out" from my macbook, but is it possible ti send images in?? I operate my camera by remote control, and would really live a live view if possible.

Nope - you can only output video from your MBP - there's not a port for input.
