Hi,
Sounds like you connect from VGA (analog) to HDMI (digital), this is not going to work. You need a converter, not adaptor.

    Hello,
    I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV. The computer flashes blue after I plug the cable in but the TV says there is no signal.
    I have a Mac Book Pro 2009 and a Samsung 32" Class (31.5" Diag.) 450 Series 720p LCD HDTV (2010 model).
    I am using a mini display port to VGA adapter. I have sucessfully hooked up boh devices but it stopped working after a handful of times. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to fix the problem or is my cable broken?

    Some things you can try.

    The problem is not the router.. the issue is the vpn has put your computer in a different IP range with a different gateway. When you turn off the vpn the computer returns to local lan and can print.
    Some vpn software allows you to set gateway to use local net instead of remote gateway or access to other webistes or local lan.
    Read up the issue.

    I did not search much.. just grabbed the first article I could find that explains the issue.
    The whole point of the vpn is whilst it is connected your computer is NOT part of the Local Lan .. it is part of the Remote LAN via the vpn tunnel.
    It is also a security risk using split tunnelling so often it will not be allowed.
    Plug the printer directly into the computer via usb or whatever.. Local connection will work.. not local lan.

  • Iphone 3 not charging or connecting to laptop

    Hi, my mate has brought his iphone 3G to me to see if i could assist with problem.
    when the phone is plugged into the mains on charge the apple symbol apperas and is there for some time before anything happens.
    It then dissapears and when you press the home button on the front it says ios 6 and slide bar saying set up.
    The top of the page is saying searching and there is battery symbol.
    upon sliding thebar it requests connect to apple i tunes. upon removal from charger everything instantly goes off and upon connection to laptop via lead nothing ever happens. after a while the apple symbol flashes slowly but this is the end of things.
    the laptop/itunes donot reconise that phone is plugged in.
    Does anyone have any answers for a fix or is the phone finished????
    The phone was working as normal before any problems, he took it into store and they said liquid corrosion which is not right.

    Charge the iPhone to a wall outlet.
    Try a different USB cable.
    Try different USB ports.

  • Just updated KIES and can no longer connect my laptop and S4?

    I've been using KIES for a year.  Was just prompted to update it.  Did so (to version 2.6.0.13091.9) and now I can no longer connect my laptop and Galaxy S4.
    I'm getting the following message which is, of course, nearly worthless:
         Reconnect the device in Samsung Kies (PC Studio) mode.
         Current connection mode not supported by Kies.
         Check the USB settings.
         (Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging (x))
    1) "PC Studio" has no actual meaning; after searching online I found what they're trying to tell me is the phone must be in MTP mode rather than USB debugging mode.
    2) The Settings path above is wrong; I DID manage to find the proper path to turn off debugging & switch to MTP, but that doesn't help.
    3) uninstalled & reinstalled KIES; no help
    Any ideas? 
    I know 1000's of other people are having this problem, so I'm a bit surprised VZ doesn't have a ready answer here.

        Hey there mjr123,
    I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with the Samsung Kies software.  This is actually a third party application offered through Samsung, so I would recommend reaching out to Samsung's support team for the best assistance.

  • Connecting HP laptop to my television

    When I connect my laptop to my television, my tv displays the laptop screen and sound, but not video.  These are the steps I followed:
    I connected my laptop to tv with hdmi cord.
    Using tv 'source', I choose appropriate hdmi setting.
    I chose second screen only option on my laptop.
    My laptop 'desk top' was displayed on the tv screen. (Good!)
    I opened 'Netflix', and it was also displayed on tv screen. (Stll good!)
    I clicked on a movie to watch...suddenly the tv screen is black, but the tv does have sound. (NOT good!)
    Do I have to change a video setting on my laptop?  I don't know how to do this.

  • I have want to connect my laptop to a projector but it dosnt work, how do I do it?

    I have want to connect my laptop to a projector but it dosnt work, how do I do it?

    Hi! In order to connect a macbook pro to a projector you will need to purchase this cable and attack it to the cable from the projector. This way you have a connector that can be plugged into your computer:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    If you already own this cable and are having problems mirroring the display from your computer on the projector screen, go to system preferences>displays and then hit arrangement tab (note: this will only appear if the projector or external monitor is attached) and then hit the checkbox that says mirror display.
    If you are having other problems, please elaborate so that I can provide a better answer.

  • Connecting my laptop to my Panasonic plasma TV

    Hey everybody.
    I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV with a HDMI cord.
    I've changes my TV to be on the right channel, I've pressed Fn+ F5 but nothing works. I've been told that I need to go into the video card settings in order to press clone / mirror / duplicate, but I cannot find the video card settings. Can anyone guide me through this?
    Thanks, Dina

    Hi,
    With the laptop connected to the Tv with the HDMI cable, hold down the fn key on the notebook and press f4.  Use the arrow keys to select 'Projector Only' and hit enter.
    Can you see your 'Desktop' on the Tv now?

  • Connecting my laptop

    I am trying to connect my laptop to my new Insignia tv.  I lost the instructions.  I connected to two cords that came with it.  I just need to know what channel to put my tv on to get the signal to show up on screen.  We are running our cable through the dvd player.  Does it need to be on or off? I'd appreciate any help ASAP.  Thanks.

    I'm getting the lcd Dynex 42 inch . It didnt specify what the imput for pc was but i call cus service and guy said he had same tv hooked up to pc using vga cable. Said only newer laptops have hdmi out. Mine seems to have just that 15 pin vga plug, will that make picture look like crap? 
    I'm not sure what you mean by component cables? Is that what you were refering to using the headphone output with cabke linked to?
    i'm confused. So with dynex to use as monitor (and  with cable tv) do i have 2 options in connecting to pcs with no hdmi or dvi output plugs ?  Are you saying the vga cnnect is not a good option ? theres nt much i can do about what outputs are on existing laptop and pc and i cant afford higher end brands of tvs. ive pretty much decided to get the lcd 42 inch dynex after loking over all ads and reviews. The 650.00 price is max i can come up with.

  • How can i connect windows(laptop) to lion server?

    Hi..
    We in our company use mac's as clients. We use Mac OSx 10.7 lion server. We have a lenovo laptop for general purpose. Now can we connect that laptop in network. So that can we remotely use mac screen sharing.

    Are you asking how to connect to FileSharing from the PC ?
    Or are you asking about screensharing?
    On Server
    If file sharing, edit the SharePoint and make sure that
         Windows File Sharing (SMB) is enabled
    On the PC:
    Map a network drive
    \\10.0.0.1\Share
         (your IP and the share name)
    Make sure you check the box to use another account or user/password
    It will then ask you to enter a password.
    In general, the above should work.
    There are some cases where it requires a few other tricks.
    Good Luck

  • Connecting XP laptop wirelessly to AEBS

    Hi,
    I'm having trouble connecting my laptop running Windows XP to an AEBS that connects well to my iMac desktop (via ethernet cable) and my Powerbook laptop (wirelessly).
    I've been able to get a signal with full strength using WPA2 Personal from the AEBS, and using WPA-PSK and TKIP on my XP machine, but still can't connect to the internet.
    I tried following the directions on iFelix, and switching over to WEP but was still not successful.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Milo

    See if it is an encryption issue, turn off all encryption temporarily and see if you can now connect.
    This will determine if it is an encryption issue or something else.
    Does the XP laptop get a valid IP address or is it a self-assigned address as in 169.x.x.x or similar?

  • Connecting new laptop to DSL

    I have a desktop that is currently connected directly to DSL.  I now have a new laptop that I want to connect to the same DSL as well.  I plan on eventually buying a router to connect both the desktop (direct connection) and the laptop (wireless) to the DSL.  First, I want to see if I can connect the laptop directly to the DSL modem via the Ethernet connection so I can download AOL software.  When I installed DSL on the desktop I remember there being a CD as part of the installation.  I can not find this CD so will I be able to connect the laptop to the DSL without this?  Likewise, later when I setup the wirelesss router, will I need this CD?
    Thanks.
    Dave.

    Yes, you will probably need that cd( It wouldn't hurt to try anyways). You could also just get our gateway which is a modem/router and it will probably be a little bit cheaper than actually going out and getting a new router. You can call 1-800-567-6789(8am-6pm) and go into the equipment department.
