Cannot Connect Pavilion dv6 2020sa laptop to HDTV using HDMI cable

Hi
I have tried to connect my laptop to HDTV using HDMI cable but it just comes up with a 'No Signal' message on TV, any ideas?  I have done a search on internet with no joy.
Operating system is Windows 7
TV is 32" LG LCD HDTV

I have been having the same issues trying to connect my Laptop to my TV to use as a DVD player. A normal HDTV cable would not work. I went to Best buy, and found a HDMI cable that said "Laptop to HDMI cable" It was the only HDMI cable out of all of the HDMI that said "Laptop to HDMI". It was also twice the cost, $50.00 for a 10 foot cable. It seems a little to high in price so I am looking for a cheaper one on the web. If I find one, I will post to let you know.

  • Laptop to HDTV Using HDMI and Quicktime

    I'm trying to play a .MOV created by a GE DV1 camera using an HDMI connection from my PC (Dell) laptop to an HDTV.  It doesn't work.  Most of the time it does nothing, sometimes it operates jerkily for a while then quits.  Works fine on the PC monitor.

  • Apple TV won't connect properly to Sony home theatre system using hdmi cable.

    Using an HDMI cable to the port on the home theatre system I can get sound, but the picture is intermittent. It Comes on for 1second, goes of for 10 seconds.
    If I connect directly to the TV using the HDMI to DVI-D cable it works, but because I am using a Fujitsu plasmavision it is a monitor only with no speakers.
    Would really like to get this to work and don't understand why the video signal is intermittent from the blueray player. Other inputs into the player through the HDMI port work OK (such as a set top box).

    Just installed my Vizio SoundBar with my new LG TV & Apple TV 2... The trick to get the Apple TV 2 to send audio to the Soundbar is on the Apple TV Menu under audio change it to 16 bit. Boom it works.

  • Hi , I own a hp pavilion dv6 6050se laptop bought in UAE during 2011, I have lost the recovery discs

    Hi , I own a hp pavilion dv6 6050se laptop bought in UAE during 2011, I have lost the recovery discs.
    How do i get a copy of recovery discs??

    Hi,
    I don't see any link on your Product Page to order a replacement set of Recovery Discs, but it's always worth calling HP directly and see if you can order them this way.
    If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
    If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
    If you are unable to order these discs from HP, here's an alternative option you could try.
    Before trying the following, make sure you can still read the 25 Character Product Activation key on your Windows COA label ( 5 blocks of 5 alpha/numeric sets ).
    An example of a COA Label can be seen Here.
    You can create an installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the correct Disc Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your notebook ) from the link below and use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here.  These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available.
    Windows-7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit
    Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the COA Label when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations.

    Any additional drivers and software you may need can be found Here.

  • Can I Replace a Keyboard(Non-Backlit) with Backlit Keyboard in my HP Pavilion DV6 3217TU Laptop.??

    Hello All... My name Pravin and I own a HP PAVILION DV6-3217TU Laptop couple of years ago.
    Well, when I visited a near by HP Customer service center for the replacement of some components in it, the HP Technician has told me that My HP PAVILION DV6-3217TU Laptop is compatible for the up-gradation with Backlit Keyboard as he found the required sockets available for a backlit keyboard on my laptop's Mother Board. I felt pretty happy to hear about that, as it sounds real cool for the guy like me who works mostly at night time...
    PLEASE CAN ANYBODY CONFIRM THAT MY HP PAVILION DV6-3217TU Laptop IS COMPATIBLE FOR THIS UP-GRADATION, IF COMPATIBLE, DOES ALL THE KEY STROKES WORKS FINE AS THE PREVIOUS ONE.???
    Hope I hear a good news about it from the great experts here..^_*
    Thanks In Advance..
    Regards..

  • HP Pavilion dv6-2151cl laptop power

    I have an HP Pavilion dv6-2151cl laptop that does not switch from battery power to ac power when plugged in.  Battery charges slow with computer off and plugged in to ac.  When started, it does not show AC power.  Only battery remaining, and shuts off when battery power runs out.  It does not switch to and run on ac power.
    Thanks
    Gerry

    Adapter is not the problem.  Adapter tested in other computer and it works fine.  Computer charges and works on battery but does not work on AC or switch to ac when charged.
    Thanks

  • Pavilion dv6-2044ca laptop screen won't turn on, unresponsive

    Hi, I have an HP Pavilion dv6-2044ca laptop that was purchased in late 2009, running windows 7. It was working normally the other night when I went to get a drink, and when I came back the screen was off. I couldn't get the screen to turn back on by moving my mouse, so I shut the computer down and restarted it. When I started it back up, it sounded normal, but the screen continued to not turn on. I tried taking out the battery and holding the power button for the power reset method referenced often on these forums, to no avail. I hooked it up to an external monitor but nothing showed up. When turned on, the caps lock and num lock lights won't turn on, however the light indicating it's plugged in, the lights for sound and wifi, and the light indicating the mousepad is turned on all light up. I have made no changes to the hardware or software in weeks. I'm at a loss as to problem solving methods at this point, and would greatly appreciate a more experienced opinion on the matter!
    Kevin

    Try a hard reset. Remove battery and AC power. Hold down power button 30 seconds. Now put AC power to it and try to fire it up. It is a 100 to 1 longshot but worth trying. If that does not work it ain't sounding good. Maybe try removing and reseating the RAM sticks, but other than that a new motherboard might be the only fix.

  • Cannot connect to SAP R/3 (datastore RD_110 using host n1.n2.n3.n4 , cli

    We use Business Objects Data Integrator 6.5 to connect to SAP R/3 system to generate ABAP extracts and load these extracts into a custom Oracle database. The current production R/3 system is in 4.6. We are planning to upgrade the R/3 system to ECC 6.0 and currently testing our interface from BODI 6.5 to R/3 6.0. We were able to successfully create a data store point to R/3. However when we execute a job, we get the following error
    Cannot connect to SAP R/3 (datastore <dsname> using host <host ip>, client <cl#>, user <uname>, and system number <0>. Please make sure the SAP R/3 server is running and login information is correct.
    The same login info was used to connect SAP GUI and it is working and we are able to execute the ABAP extractors. We have also tried running the RFC_GENERATE_AND_EXECUTE_ABAP function and it is executing as well.
    BODI is installed on Solaris and R/3 is on Aix.
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    OK.  Did you really mean to ask this question on a ColdFusion forum, if it's DreamWeaver you're having problems with?  You're probably better off raising this on a DreamWeaver forum.  "Using the correct tool for the job" 'n'all.

  • I cannot connect my I pad mini and iPhone using Bluetooth.

    I cannot connect my I pad mini and iPhone using Bluetooth.

    I'm not sure what made you think that that was not what Regal trail was asking... I am having the same problem and wish that that question had been answered! I believe I've gone through the same steps that used to work, to no avail now. But I'm betting that you (Chris) have the answer to this!
    In a nutshell: I'm trying to share my iPhone's cellular connection with my WiFi-only iPad Mini, using a Bluetooth connection. I used to do this regularly, but went for a period of time without the need for it, and so am hard pressed now to identify which thing that might have changed during the interim would have made it no longer work.
    iPhone is connected to internet via cellular data (AT&T LTE). Bluetooth is on. Personal Hotspot is on.
    On iPad, Bluetooth is on. My iPhone shows up in the list under My Devices, and I can select it, and it will connect for approximately 5 seconds. The shared connection icon shows up on the iPad. The iPhone (on the Bluetooth screen) shows, for those 5 seconds, that the iPad is connected, but the shared connection status bar never shows up on the iPhone.
    After 5 seconds, it disconnects.
    Thoughts? Need more info? Let me know! Thanks.
