Cannot get hdmi viewsonic monitor to work using dvi-d to hdmi cable

Late 2008 17 inch Macbook Pro...OS X 10.6.8. Screen stays blank no matter what I do..mirror display or not...Only works when I use dvi-d to VGA adaptor. Is there anyway to hook it up using HDMI ??

Recommend checking this Toshiba document.
+*Is it possible to use two external monitors on a Qosmio X500?*+

Yes, it is possible.
Connect the VGA and the HDMI monitor to the related connectors. Now you can use the key combination FN + F5 to activate both monitors.
Choose "HDMI + CRT Extended Desktop". The internal display will turn of.
Note: All three displays (two external and the internal one) can not be activated simultaneously.

I cannot get my second monitor to work!

Hi,
I have a brand new MacBook Pro, and I am trying to hook up a 17 inch ADC studio monitor to it. I have the DVI-ADC adapter and I have everything hooked up properly. The USB ports work on the monitor (I have my wireless mouse plugged into it and it works properly) and the extended desktop is turned on because there are definitely window that I dragged over there. When I hit the power button it flashes white and then flashes off again.
Is the screen defective? Did I do something wrong?
Thanks!

Thank you so much for getting back to me. By not connecting I mean, it will not show a picture. When I right click and change the display settings, I have gone through every possible reolution setting on none of them produce a picture other than an occasiional flickering screen on the very lowest resolution setting.
The monitor model is HF 199H and it is still relatively new and in great condition.
I bought the Rocketfish connector (RF-AP307) as I was told by the Apple Techs at Best Buy that I needed the cable in order to hook up a second monitor. There's also an HDMI output from the monitor but I do not have the cable to connect to my computer.
Is there a chance that somehow bootcamp will not allow for me to extend my screen?

Help...cannot get audio input monitoring t work

when punching in..I cannot hear audio before and after punch. Please help!!!

Try deactivating Input monitoring so you'll hear the track before and after the punch - like that you're actually listening "post tape". If you have an external Audio Interface/Mixer with monitoring capabilities use that instead.

I cannot get my iPad 2 to work with VPN provider.

I cannot get my iPad 2 to work with my VPN service provider. Using OS 4.3.3. iPad purchased in the USA. Have heard there are issues with iPad 2 and VPN support. Any suggestions?

You can try this ... hold down on the sleep button and the power button at the same time for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo on the screen, release the buttons and see if the iPad restarts and you can use it.

Getting external VGA monitor to work without cloning. [Solved]

Hey guys. I'm on a ThinkPad T42 with an older ATI card (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]). I'm using the open source drivers since I'm fairly sure the closed source drivers don't support this card.
Anyway, I can get an external monitor to work as a clone booting into X, but I can't get it to work as a separate screen. I've tried multiple xrandr commands, but it appears my card just won't do it.
This is my xrandr output when nothing's connected. Based on this, is it just not possible to do what I want?
# xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1024 x 1024
VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
LVDS connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
1024x768 60.0*+ 60.0
800x600 60.3
640x480 59.9
S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
I know it worked out of the box when this thing had Windows on it, so I know the hardware can do it. I'm wondering if it's just a driver restriction or if I just don't understand what I'm doing with randr.
Thanks

It's giving me a 1600x1200 limit, no matter how far up I jack the virtual command in xorg. That's better than the 1024x1024 I was getting before the change, though.
Also, I'm using the GPL'd radeon kernel module (I assume it comes bundled with the kernel since I don't remember loading it) and the radeon driver from xf86-video-ati. I see that package also has an ati_drv.so, but I haven't used it.
I was pretty sure the Catalyst drivers don't support this card (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500])

I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap

I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap. I am trying to export 33 PSD files in BRIDGE to a PDF like I used to do on my other computer with bridge.

Let's start with the general things.
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

I cannot get my Logitec speakers to work. They do not show up in the output section
Thanks

Hi. If the speakers are using a standard 3.5mm plug, they need to be plugged into the headphone jack. Please clarify which jack you are using.

I cannot get Adobe Reader 11 to work - what have I done wrong?

I cannot get Adobe Reader 11 to work - what have I done wrong?

Hi Pat,
I usually don’t have trouble explaining my problems, but this one is confusing the heck out of me. I just downloaded Reader 11. It is installed, I believe. This is the first time Reader has not worked for me after upgrading to a newer version. I’ve been reading PDF files forever, but tonight when I went to read a pdf file that I received today, I clicked on the file, expecting Reader to open up and it never did. Then I tried to read some older pdf files and nothing happened when I tried to open the file. I’ve been using Acrobat Reader for years so that’s why I’m so confused.
I downloaded the file from the adobe.com website. and everything seemed to be fine. My question is indeed vague, but I don’t know any other way to explain what happened. Should I uninstall and start over??
Thanks, Elaine

If you are certain it is correct, you will need to contact Adobe:

HT204380 I cannot get any FaceTime calls to work.

I cannot get any FaceTime calls to work. If I do manage to talk to the other person, I only see myself. One only sees himself. One sees nothing. What are we doing wrong?
Thanks.

Sounds like a catch 22 situation. I rekon you are in the UK trying to use the 3 USB wimax stick.
In anycase an iMac is a big machine to lug around. It's a difficult situation.
If you have a neighbor, politely ask them if you can use their broadband for a short while. If this is not practical then call 3 and let them know your circumstances.
I might be stepping on my own feet here…wait. You need Java 6.
Ok for now, try the standalone combo update for Lion client. We will try things the manual way. It's a big download, please make sure you are not going to reach your download cap on your phone becuase you are now tethered to your mobile phone and I wouldn't want to see you pay a premium for this.
Here is the Lion Client combo update. Download it and double click the eventual DMG file. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1524

Hi Cantonvase.
I am going to asume that you have a MBP 13" Mid 2012 as you have in your profile.
First check if you computer is updateing the spotlight. Second. Make sure the Icloud acount is activated. (using your apple id and password). Once that is working, and all of these are made, repair permitions and wait be sure all programs are close. Reset the computer.
Once that is done. Go to system preferences, Select Security and Privacy. Then select privacy and see if maps is seleccted in location services. In order to change that unlock the lock and add the password fom you computer.
If that is check, we can see what we can do next. Also make sure that diagnostic & usage is selected, so all these info be send to apple for making these better.
One step at a time.
I work 2 instalacion. One clean install and 1 upgrade. The clean isntall has being perfect so far. I only find 2 errors so far and i am working on those right now.

I cannot get my Gaussian Blur to work!!??

I cannot get my gaussian blur to work. I have watched every tutorial and did it exactly as demonstrated but when I get to the part of painting my sharp image back into the picture...it stays blurry. I have went step by step, watched 100 tutorials and still no results! Help!

Which tutorial are you talking about? Are you using a guided edit? There is no way normally to just paint back what was in focus, unless you are using a layer mask, for example. We need to know more about what you are doing and how.
