Connect mi iMac to Tv Sony

hello! I hope someone can help me, buy a mini display port adapter Griffin because I use my Sony Bravia as a monitor but not recognized, I have an iMac with software i5 2.5 Ghz Mac OS X version 10.7.4 Thanks for your help.

Well well, it seems that I have found a magic trick myself. However, I’m a bit disappointing to have to answer my own question. It kind of bit the purpose of the Apple support community doesn’t it ?
Anyhow, for those of you still looking for the answer, I have found a way to wirelessly link my iMac to the Sony Bravia. Unfortunately it’s a bit expansive. You basically need to buy an Apple TV2 or 3 and download AirParrot (10$). You do not need to hack into your Apple TV, you just need to install AirParrot on your mac “et voilà” ! With AirParrot & AirPlay (already installed in Apple TV 2 &3) you will be able to “stream” your desktop to your Sony Bravia (or other) tv.
If any of you find a better/cheaper way to do it, please let me know & post it !
Cheers,

    Which cable should use for Sony DV(IEEE 1394)connect to iMac ?

    If your iMac has just the FireWire 800 connection, you will need the 9 pin to 4 pin cable.

    If your iMac has the FireWire 400 connection, you will need the 6 pin to 4 pin cable.

  • Can anyone please help me connect my iMac to my TV?

    How can i connect my iMac OS X to my sony bavia TV?
    Its an iMac OS X version 10.5.8 The TV has an hdmi port but the iMac doesn't have an hdmi port. But the TV & the iMac both have a USB port.

    If your iMac has a MiniDisplay port then you need a MiniDisplay port to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable.

  • I keep losing my connection from iMac to keyboard and mouse any help please

    I keep losing connection between imac and my mouse and key board.I then have to power off and reboot to get connection can anyone help please!!!!

    Hi
    Update date for anyone who ha suffered with the problem of losing connection to an ext HDD.
    For me, the solution appears to have been achieved by making use of my old 802.11 b&g Airport Extreme base station and my new 802.11 n Airport Extreme Base Station.
    My network is now setup as follows:-
    Airport 802.11 n - 5GHz
    Macbook Black
    Apple TV
    Time Capsule
    Airport Express Base Station
    Airport 802.11 b&g - 2.4GHz
    Playstation 3
    Xbox 360 Elite
    Nintendo Wii
    iPhones
    iPod Touch
    Canon Wi-fi Printer
    iMac G5
    Sony VAIO TX2P
    I connect my ADSL line to both AEBS by ethernet, changed the settings and this has dramatically improved my connection reliability and speed when streaming movies and/or music.
    Through trial & error, I have also discovered that the other problems that I have are connected to situations when restart my Macbook after a shut down or restart and my iPhone is connected. This causes iTunes to start up but due to the restart, the ext HDD is not ready and therefore, ITunes opens its local library - I now just try to remember to use the Option key to choose the library. Finally, if the laptop just runs out of juice, the ext HDD doesn't have the chance to have a friendly handshake before losing its connection. When I restart, the connection does to the HDD fails and I have to restart AEBS
    I hope that helps anyone with similar problems or who wants to make the most of their fast 802.11n equipment by making is use of that kit that was maybe considered redundant - by creating a dual frequency network that maximizes speeds on 802.11 n whilst allowing use of the legacy 802.11 b&g devices.

  • IMac to replace Sony laptop. How do we make it our main computer?

    WE have just bought an iMac to replace Sony laptop. We would like the iMac to be our main computer and iTunes account.
    how do we change the other devices - ipad and phone to sync with the iMac instead of the laptop.
    CUrrently when you wish to sync by wifi it says it will sync when the laptop is connected.

    To have  EVERYTHING  as it is Now...
    Copy your iTunes Library From your OLD computer To your NEW computer...

  • How to connect my Imac to my HDTV

    I have a 2007 aluminum Imac and a 50 inch 1080p HDTV. is there anyway I could connect my Imac to the tv and control it via wireless mouse and keyboard... The rear connections on the tv are 3 hdmi, 2 component, s-video and AV.. Please let me know what is easiest, fastest, most reliable and produces the best picture.. Thanks so much!
    Also I might get the new 13 inch macbook pro, what would I need in order to connect that?

    I am not familiar with this new mini-DVI to HDMI cable. Sounds interesting. There is a Mac user reporting an issue in trying to use one of these in the Intel-based iMac display forum. He is using a mini-DVI to HDMI adapter and an HDMI to HDMI cable plugged into a HDMI port on his plasma TV and nothing is happening. But he is also reporting the same issue with mini-DVI to VGA adapter and an VGA to VGA cable plugged into the VGA port on his plasma TV. So the problem may not involve this mini-DVI to HDMI adapter.
    I use Apple's mini-DVI to DVI adapter connected to a Belkin DVI to HDMI cable plugged into the HDMI port on my LG LCD HDTV with great success with my new Early 2009 Mac mini. The Apple mini-DVI to DVI adapter came with my Mac mini and I bought the Belkin DVI to HDMI cable at the Apple Store when I bought the Mac mini. Both are also available from the Apple Store online for US$19 each.
    The MacBook Pro has a mini-DisplayPort. Apple also has a mini-DisplayPort to DVI adapter for US$29. So that could also connect with the Belkin DVI to HDMI cable.
    I did Google for a mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and there are a few 3rd party venders of this adapter as well.

  • How to connect my imac to my tv ?

    How do I connect my Imac to my TV ? Is there an easy way, Any body can help? I'm new to the Mac world.
    Thank you in advance

    What do you want to achieve? If the goal is to use the TV as an external monitor then get a mini display port to HDMI, DVI or VGA depending on the connections the TV has. You can find each adapter at the Apple Store either online or at a store close to you.

  • How do i connect my iMac to my tv to see movies with wire

    how do i connect my iMac to my tv to see movies with wire

    Hey rodskc10,
    Thanks for the question! Based on the iMac model and TV you have, you’ll need to pick up a compatible cable. There are a few options that can be found on the Apple Online Store:
    Mac Cables - Computer Audio & Video Adapters, Network Cables & More - Apple Store (U.S.)
    http://store.apple.com/us/mac/mac-accessories/cables#!
    For example, if you have the latest iMac and an HDTV, a mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable should do the job (you’ll connect this to the Thunderbolt port, which is backwards compatible with mini DisplayPort).
    For additional information, see this article:

  • How can I connect my iMac to a TV for playback of videos? My TV does not have HDMI.

    How can I connect my iMac to a TV for playback of videos? My TV does not have HDMI.

    You need to find out what video out you have on your iMac, and what kind of video inputs there are on your TV.
    It will help to know exactly what model iMac and exactly what make/model TV you have.
    Depending on the exact model iMac you have, it may have miniVGA, miniDVI, miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output.  Your TV may have composite, S-video, component, DVI, VGA or HDMI inputs.  Once you confirm what kind of ports your iMac and TV have, then we can probably suggest the correct cable or adapter so you can connect them to each other.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If this program doesn't work, open  > About this Mac and tell us the generation of your Mac. AirPlay Mirroring needs a Mid 2011 or newer iMac, so if your iMac is supported, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion

  • I want to connect my iMac 21.5 mid 2011 to the tv

    how can i connect my imac to an hdmi plug from the tv. do i use a thunderbolt cable and what adaptor can i use?

    If your TV has HDMI inputs, use a mini-Displayport to HMDI adapter and a HDMI cable.
    The mini-Displayport adapters are compatible with your Thunderbolt port.
    Here is the Kanex version of the mini-DP to HDMI adpater. Moshi makes one also.
