Cannot re-route TV signal to other monitor from TV Anywhere program
The TV function is working fine through the default monitor, but I don't like having only two screen size options, full screen and the one smaller version. Therefore I want to re-route the TV signal to another monitor, so I can use the full screen default monitor for working while watching TV on another monitor. I've connected a DIGIX SDV17 Portable DVD Player, which can operate as an external TV monitor, but I can't get the TV signal to swith over to it? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. AS well as a forum post for other interested parties, please contact me directly at [email protected]

you are making it to complicated
just use windows extended desktop... (your video card must support multiple monitors)
what you should understand is that your video card (not your TV card) is "deciding" where signal ends up!
Hope this helps Robertob!
(I am not really sure if your DIGIX SDV17 can be attached to your computer / video card!?)

I all,
the scenario is the following:
WIFI connection with TISCALI operator. Encryption made by WPA2 EAS with router SITECOM or tested also with another router DIGICOM with WPA TPK.
From December up to end of March the IPAD2 working perfectly serfing and downloading.
By two weeks it has a very strange behavour without have changed any configuration on IPAD or network:
with WIFI turned on it discover about 4 different ntw among them the mine, I successfully authenticate with psw the my ntw,
the IPAD2 start to run with Safari without problems, but after about 1 minutes, it stop to serf or download and answer that the Server cannot be reached or the page cannot be open, at the same time the signal is present on the icon of WIFI and it is strong.
This problem is systematic: If I dissasociate the ntw and then authenticate again I start to serf again for 1 minutes (more or less) and then it stops again, this occurs every time I authenticate the ntw after a disassociation.
I made some test changing the encryption from WPA2, WPA and also without encryption but the result was always the same, after about one minute the server seems to be for the IPAD2 no more reachable while the others PC and netbook connected to the same router continue to serf/download without problems!
I also tried to change the router with a DIGCOM that I did not use generally, but the behavour is always the same.
Since the IOS was the 4.3 revisin, I made the upgrade by means Itunes to IOS 5.1 succesfully installed.
But unfortunatelly all test repeted have had the same negative result with the same behavour!
Yesterday I tried to do the complete restore of the System but the tests had the same rsult.
I really don't know how to proceed, the problem started suddenly without any action from my side....is there someone that can help me?

i upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 and if I'm close to my router the signal indicator comes on and the phone connects to the wifi just fine, but if I step away from the router my phone does not have signal and cannot connect to Internet
I can use my iPhone only with wifi .
I don't get any signal and I can not connect to
The Internet without wifi.
When I don't use my wifi from home I have lost all connection to the net
My iPhone is on and working it does not shut down -
I cannot get a WiFi signal, which means that I cannot access all of the other features on my ipod. Is there anyway I can access all of the other features without Siri or WiFi?
Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.

I have an I phone 3gs which for the last few months cannot find wi-fi signals unless I stand next to a wireless modem. To annoy me even more I called apple to find out if the phone is unserviceable and they want money to tell me if it's broken!!! Is this bill gates in disguise?
The netgear is not going to work very well.. and not at all unless it is universal wireless extender.. you cannot use WDS method.
If it does support universal wireless then make sure the airport uses a rational SMB compatible wireless name.. not an apple name which is 35 characters long with spaces and illegal characters like apostrophe.
So nice AE name.. AEwifi and actually while you are trying.. fruitlessly to do this.. use AE24ghz and AE5ghz (so different names on the different bands)
Assuming your AE is gen3 or greater.
You should also fix the wireless channel at least for 2.4ghz since the netgear is probably only going to repeat 2.4ghz so use channel 11, as a trial.
And use no wireless security as a test.. if that works.. then use WPA1 & 2.. as often old equipment using WPA2 is not compatible.
If it fails with simple name.. fixed channel and no security. Sorry it is not compatible at all.. it happens.
If your AE is G wireless or earlier model.. really the time has come for replacement.
If your Express is G wireless model it is not supported.. and is too old to bother with expect I guess if you want to run audio to a speaker.
You must use older 5.6 utility to do this.. so do you have a computer running older OS.. up to Mountain Lion it is easy to install with a bit of manipulation.. later is much harder .. or windows computer anywhere or available to you. -
my ipad 4 has been connected to my wireless network using a netgear sky broadband router succesfully for a few weeks, suddenly can't connect, network is showing but no signal - all other wireless gadgets are connected just fine - including iphone - any ideas?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I have a Lorex DVR that I want to monitor from my IPhone and IPad. I used to be able to do this when I had a Belkin router (easy to open ports) but I bought the AirPort Extreme router and no longer have that capability. When I use "canyouseeme" they can NOT see 80, 9000 or 1025. Lorex says I need them all available in order to access. Help! And all the help I see refers to a earlier version of the AirPort Utility so I cant use those to look at anything, I cant find the same screens, I have version 6.1 (610.31). I also don't really understand how ports work, so I need a pretty basic explanation.
Well...I went to the modem (Westell, WireSpeed), found the NAT settings, once again, I'm WAY over my head, I am assuming this is a TCP connection (as opposed to a UDP) and per Lorex my mobile devices will use port 1025. So I gave it a "global port range" of 1-10 and I indicated that the "base host port" was 80, 1025, & 9000 (ports 1,2,3). When I selected the 'enable' it asked for a "host devise" my choices are my IPhone, IMac and the IP address for the dvr, so I choose the dvr. I still cannot connect and canyouseeme still can NOT find these open ports. This is taking up my whole day! I don't know how people figure this stuff out.

HT4259 I have an 802.11n base and extender and still cannot get a good signal 80-90 ft away . Why?
I have an 802.11n base and extender and still cannot get a good signal 80-90 ft away . Why?
Hardwire is always recommended because there is virtually no signal loss in a wire....at least up to 300 feet or so.
Another advantage of using Ethernet cable...if you can...is that you can locate the AirPort Express where it is most needed.
If it extends using wireless only, it pretty much needs to be located about half the distance from the main router and the general area that needs more coverage.
I like to use WiFi Explorer since it displays SNR (Signal to Noise) readings, which are the best way to evaluate signal quality.
Mac App Store - WiFi Explorer
If the signal is varying constantly, something is causing it to do so....assuming that the AirPorts are functioning correctly.
Cordless phones are a huge problem for wireless networks. You want to try to figure out if the phones are causing a problem as a first troubleshooting step.
That is why I suggested that you turn off the phones for an hour or two and watch the network to see how it behaves. If the signal stops fluctuating....that is a good clue that the phones are interfering with the wireless signal. -
LPX apogee duet interface I/O but I get only the dry signal back to monitor
I use an apogee duet as I/O interface, the input channels all ok but I get only a dry signal back to the monitors. What I have to do for right routing the wet signals to my monitor? Duet is input and output (speaker) in the mac system and Logic Pro X, core audio is active.
I Assume you mean when you are recording. You have to turn software monitoring on in the audio preferences or you can right click in the transport bar and check off thr box on the right hand side that says software monitoring. That will give you reverb or whatever on the recording channel for listening but it wont print the effect. It is just for listening

No signal output on monitor after installin hyperx memory
I bought 2 512 pc3200 cl2 184 kingston hyperX (KHX3200AK2/1GR)
My mobo is msi k8n neo nvidia nforce 3 250gb chipset board
I have cpu 3400+ amd
I took out my 1gb of 2700 ddr333 to install my new ram ddr400 3200 hyperX kingston and when I turn on my computer, i get no signal in my monitor, i checked the cables, and what it does it goes black and then back to sayin no signal output on the monitorReplace monitor cable with a good one. If machine still won't boot then...
Follow Bejon's instructions carefully (remembering to remove power cord and waiting 3 minutes before opening case to reset cmos, then closing case after you have reset cmos as described in the user manual, and reattaching power cord after case is reclosed). Once you can boot (with one stick of ram in slot closest to the cpu if you cannot boot with 2 sticks) hit "del" key to enter bios, select "optimized defaults", enter "cell menu", set dram/memory voltage to 2.75 (or higher if manufacturerer of HYPER X memory recommends more power - don't worry about flashing red warning, memory can handle it), then use "F10" and "yes" to save settings in bios. Good luck. -
How do i run an external monitor with my macbook and change settings so that when i close the lid the signal to the monitor is not lost and i can continue using the mac with a mouse and a wireless keyboard?
No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

No signal to VGA monitor using Mac mini display to VGA adaptor and first time boot Mac mini
Just unpacked Mac mini and powered up using Mac mini to VGA display adaptor and VGA monitor. There is no signal to the monitor ( power is on).
How to see the display?[ 13.093] (==) No Layout section. Using the first Screen section.
[ 13.093] (==) No screen section available. Using defaults.
[ 13.093] (**) |-->Screen "Default Screen Section" (0)
[ 13.093] (**) | |-->Monitor "<default monitor>"
[ 13.093] (==) No monitor specified for screen "Default Screen Section".
Using a default monitor configuration.
First step would be to create the necessary entries (easier to make a complete xorg.conf versus xorg.conf.d/##-whatever.conf).
All Desktop Environments / Window Managers rely on X. Man pages are helpful, possibly some headaches ahead as I fought a dual-monitor display this way.
I currently run a xrandr script to switch displays on my hp pavilion: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xrandr#Scripts

I just bought one of the new minis last night. This is my first time in the Mac world so I'm expecting to get thrown some but I'm having a monitor problem right off the bat.
I am using the mini-display to VGA adapter and get no signal on the monitor. The monitor works fine with my PC. I also tried a second monitor but get the same no signal. If I use my HDTV via HDMI I get a display fine on the TV. I went to display and tried using detect displays but nothing changes. If I change resolutions it changes on the HDTV but I never get a signal on the monitor.
Any tips to try? Are the VGA adapters known to be problematic? Maybe defective?Hi
i did what you said and tried with other resolution/refresh rate combinations, also with anoter external monitor (and vga cable) but its still the same: monitor is detected but there's no signal.
Now I will try to chek if the adapter works on other pc and monitor.
Thanks
(anyway it was the firs time i connect this mac to an external monitor) -
My Mac Mini was not sending a signal to the monitor. I powered down using the power button and now it will not start. When i power up I get a strange 2 tone sound, like a warning alarm. The fan starts, and the light comes on, but no screen.
I have tried with a wired USB keyboard and mouse using a single screen. Powered up with option pressed. No change.
Reset SMC no changeRun the Apple hardware test to see what it tells you. Run the extended test when prompted, which can take awhile.
