Connecting lap top to hdtv

I have a new HDTV with a pc input. I tried to connect my m105-s3004 satellite to my toshiba 42hl167 tv using the pc input with a vga cable and the tv is displaying " unsupprted video signal. Is there something extra I need to do to get my lap top to work on my TV?

You'll get the best picture connecting the video output from the S-Video port of your Satellite M105-S3004. Scroll down in the specifications and you'll see it on the left side just in front of the USB port.
You'll need to get the audio from the Headphone jack on the front on the right.

Connect lap top to iPhone to get on Internet ???

Is it possible to use the iPhone as my Internet modem using the g3 cell connection and NOT wifi???
This allows connectivity anywhere ...

Not yet. What you are describing is a "tethered modem"
There was an APP posted on the App Store a few weeks ago that did what you want, but it was pulled in less than a day.
I have seen news articles from AT&T that say they intend to release their own version of a tethered modem application but it was probably come with an additional monthly service charge.
See http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-10083957-37.html
Hope that helps.

Having trouble with display from lap top to flat screen hdtv

I connected my macbook pro 2011 to my hdtv with a thunderbolt to hdmi cable. The audio comes through but all I can see on the TV are the default mac backgrounds. What do I need to do so that my TV shows whats on my lap top?

You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
Or if you want to use the MacBook’s keyboard and trackpad to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

My iphone 4s and ipad 2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi but non-mac lap top has no issues

my iphone 4s and ipad2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi.
About three days ago the ability to connect came and went and the connection never lasted more than 10-15 minutes; it has not been able to connect since last night. I do not think it's my wifi router as non-mac lap top has no issues. I have seem many similar questions posted.

Reboot your router by removing all power from it for about 15 seconds. Also, if your router still has its default SSID (such as LINKSYS, DLINK, NETGEAR, etc) change the SSID to something unique. Note that all other devices on your network will have to be reconnected if you change the name, but if the name is still the default that is most likely your problem.
If the SSID is not the default then the reboot should fix it.

I have multiple devices (imacs, lap tops and ipads) all connected to a NAS server. Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife, and each have our own apple ID, and Itunes accounts, but all share the same media on NAS drives?

I have multiple devices (iMacs, Lap tops, Ipads) all connected to a Nas Drive. Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife and we each have our own apple ID's, Itunes etc, but share the same data on the hard drives? So when she logs in, and sync's her ipads, they will sync with her stuff and when I do the same under my user account, on the same device, my ipads will sync with my stuff?

You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs. (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.) This will prevent you from ending up with merged data. You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

So, I have created my home sharing from my base computer to my laptop. On my lap top I see the tab for home sharing but it will not let me connect to my computer to share my music over. I have done everything iTunes has told me to but it still won't work.

I got some more info that may help.
I put a cd on my laptop, and was able to share it to my computer... So the problem is only from my computer to my laptop. I tried the firewall thing and it did not help. I read the rest of the trouble shooting page, and nothing else applies. iTunes is an execption and already was. I can not think of anything else being my problem. Do you think I should re-install iTunes or would that be a waste of time? At this point I am about to just call Apple for some help because I am getting to stressed over this.
Thanks

Hi all,
Guess I understand what is going on as I'm also experiencing the problem.
Basically the issue is about the iPhone 4's personal hotspot.
I'm trying to hook on personal hotspot to my toshiba laptop but it couldnt work as the connection is limited to local only without Internet access.
The hotspot works well on other laptop and I-devices, but not my toshiba...
Hope to get assistance here. Thanks

Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet.

I am having trouble connecting my iPad mini with my lap top that run Xperia

I am having trouble connecting my iPad mini with my lap top that run Xp

Hi..I've had a variant of this problem; my internet was accessible but my devices on wifi could not see the PC on Lan. That meant no iTunes syncing, Airplay from iTunes etc.
Dlink has a strange default setting that isolates Wifi & Wired connections into different subnets.I'm assuming you have DHCP setup on your router and you're PC or MAC has internet access via the same router. Try the following steps to see if this solves the problem for you-
1. Go to Setup -> Local Network and Uncheck the box that says 'Configure the second IP Address and Subnet Mask for LAN' - Hit Apply
2. Go to Wireless -> Wireless Basic and Uncheck 'Enable MultiAP Isolation' - Hit Apply
3. Restart your Router
Let me know if this solves your problem. I've been frustrated by my problem for months & had nearly given up.

How to connect I pad with lap top Sony Vaio

Hello,
I have an Ipad and I would like to connect it with my Lap top Sony Vaio with using the bluetooth system. And the problem that I have, my computer ask me to insert the disk and I have not this disk.
How I can do with out this disk.
My computer is with Windows Vista
Thanks for your answer

To answer your original question, you can connect your Sony Vaio with your iPad using the cable that came with your iPad. Bluetooth connectivity is not supported. You move photos and other documents from your laptop to your iPad with iTunes which can be obtained from the Apple website for free. The iPad is not like another computer or a disk that you can connect to your laptops.

Cannot connect 2nd lap top to the internet

Hello,
I have the Linksys BEFW11S4 router. The 2nd lap top in my home cannot get connected to the internet for some reason. Any suggestions?
Thanks

What exactly is the problem? What are you doing exactly to connect and what is happening (exact error messages if there are any)? In particular, do you have a connection to the router or not?

Could I connect the lap top to TV and watch movies and control the lap top from a distance?

could I connect the Apple lap top to my TV to watch movies and control the lap top from a distance just like the Window lap top???

Check out Apple TV. It is a wireless interface to your TV. It may be the best $99 investment you can make for entertainment on your TV. It simply requires a standard $10 HDMI cable, not supplied with the Apple TV unit. Through Apple TV, with Mavericks, you can use the TV as a standard OS X monitor or for entertainment. Also check out the Beamer software to stream videos to it from your Mac.
Apple TV requires a Mid 2011 or newer MacBook Air with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later.
If your MBA is not new enough you can use the AirParrot application but the video quality is not as high as with a newer MBA. It also streams from iOS devices.

AirPlay is available on all devices running iOS 4.3 or later. Some features require the latest software. Second-generation Apple TV or later required.
AirPlay Mirroring is available with iPhone 4s or later; iPad 2 or later; iPad mini; iPod touch (5th generation); and iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer), and Mac Pro (Late 2013) with OS X Mountain Lion or later.

Hi NYYJMM,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You may want to reset your iPod nano and then sync again. If the issue persists, restore your iPod and try again. See these articles for the steps:
