Thanks for any help.

Have no clue since you provided no details. What did the smart phone tech support tell you? You contacted them right?

Having trouble connecting macbook pro via HDMI to television?

When I connect my macbook pro to television via HDMI thunderbolt cord it flashes blue, then the mac does not recognize any other displays. I have tried all HDMI ports and am getting the same results. Please help, trying to watch netflix on larger screen.

I don't know that it wouldn't be best to simply get a 'smart' device (my Blu-ray player is the 'smart' device in my AV line-up) such as an Apple TV, etc., to actually view NetFlix movies. That's what I do - my BR player on Ethernet - and the results are terrific. Although I've used a Thunderbolt>HDMI adapter in the past (I don't have a machine with native HDMI ports) I find that the quality and speed is just better with a smart device.
Just a thought...

No picture on TV/DVD combo when connected to laptop via HDMI

I have. 2008 19LV50KW TV/DVD combo that I'm trying to use as a second monitor for my new laptop. I have it connected via HDMI port, and the laptop recognizes the Toshiba, I have windows 7 and have dual monitors enabled, yet there is only Black on the Toshiba TV (I have it on the HDMI input selection). What could be the issue ?

I've seen a number of similar posts around the internet. I have this same Toshiba TV, and my new fire TV stick from amazon will not display via the HDMI (the only option). So then I tried my laptop, and discovered that it too would NOT display.
Based on that troubleshooting, I've concluded that it much be an issue with the TV. Can this be remedied in any way? Both my fire TV stick and my laptop work on all of my other TVs. There seems to clearly be an issue with the HDMI input with this Toshiba model, and maybe more.
Please advise.

Hello LittleFeatFan
It sounds like to me that your MAC Book Pro is cycling through trying to find a compatible video mode with the monitor. Please be advised that HP monitors are not designed with MAC computers in mind they are designed for computers running Microsoft Windows operating systems. The newer MAC computers run in what is called 'VESA' modes and will work on most HP Monitors. Try the following steps
1. Turn off the MAC Book Pro.
2. Connect the HP Monitor while the MAC Boot Pro is off.
3. Turn on the MAC Book Pro.
4. Set the monitor to run at 60 Hz.
I am also including a link to the driver page for your HP Monitor below. You will note there are no MAC O/S drivers available for this device.

Normally i use itunes to transfer files from Laptop to iphone4. Recently i am unable to see my phone in itunes library. I uninstall and and reinstall and no improvement. When I connect my phone via cable to laptop, itune is not launching automatically.

I am unable to use itunes to tranfer appln from my laptop to Iphone 4. I uninstall and reinstalled. But still when I connect the phone to PC , itunes is not launching.

One thing you should definitely try is keeping your iPhone 4 connected via USB cable in your computer and restarting. This should make the computer recognize that it is connected and as long as you have your iTunes set up to automatically open upon connection with your iPhone you should be all set!

Exchange appears to be work OK. I can set up a smart phone and connect it to the exchange server, but when I try to look at the inbox, or for that matter any other folder, all I see is that small circle spinning and will never display any folder or
mail box. I have a Godaddy SSL certificate, in bound and out bound mail using outlook 2007-2010 works good with pc's on network. OWA works perfect off site. Just having trouble with smart phones. Not sure where to look or what to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No sound connecting Qosmio G30 via HDMI to audio/video receiver

When I connect my Qosmio G30-177 via HDMI cable to my audio/video receiver using Windows Vista Ultimate I get no sound but excellent video.
When I connect the DVD recorder to the receiver (also via HDMI-cable) the sound is o.k.
Do I have to use the s/pdif interface instead of HDMI to transmit the sound to the receiver or is it also possible via HDMI?

How to connect android phone via usb using mavericks?

I am fairly new to Macs and want to transfer music files from my PowerBook to my LG Android phone via a USB connection. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance for any help.

I do not have the equipment to try this setup first hand, however, it could be possible to set this up. It appears that the phone and Operating System has the means to print pre-installed. You will need a proper OTG cable also.
Ensure that under Settings> Printing that the HP Plug in is installed and turn on. If you do not have it, it can be found in the PlayStore. HP Print Service Plugin<---
After that, simply connecting the cable to both phone and printer should allow you the means of printing.

MacBook Air no longer connecting to monitor via HDMI after recent update.

Hi all,
My MacBook air typically has no issues connecting to my external ASUS monitor via Thunderbol-HDMI port. However, after the recent Mavericks OSX update that was pushed a couple days ago, my monitor says that there is no signal. My MacBook air screen flickers slightly once connected (typical behavior, as it begins to mirror the screen on a scaled resolution shortly there after) but then nothing happens.
How can I fix this?
Thank you!

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Try System Preferences->Energy Saver:Automatic graphics switching (Deselect the checkbox).
If that doesn't work you might try changing the resolution and refresh rate for the monitor in System Preferences->Displays, or downloading an app called SwitchResX (shareware) and lowered the resolution just slightly .
One other solution if possible - restore to time before update from backup.

MacBook Pro - connect to TV via HDMI Mini Display adaptor

Can't connect macbook pro to my TV and view/listen to what's on my mac on the tv. I am using an HDMI cable from the tv to a mini display port HDMI adaptor. When I go to system preference, display it doesn't have an Arrangement tab to mirror. It only gives me tabs for Display and Color. Any help would b appreciated.

Hello pdr4d,
Based on your post it seems you are unable to get video on an external display. The following article may help you find a solution:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays - Apple Support
Check connections
When using an external display be sure to check the following:
If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
Monitor and Display Adapter Table
About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

MacBook Pro Connect to TV via HDMI with Toslink...???

So I have a MacBook Pro (Mid 2009) and using a Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI will not give any audio. Only MBP (Mid-2010) I did sum research and found this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STx9PN7TPoc&feature=related which connects a Audio using a Mini Toslink to Toshlink adapter which is connecting that to a AMP. My question is: If i connect the Toslink to my TV (since I don't have a Amp) Will it still give out audio? I'm a little confused. Any help anyone...??

To Csound's good advice, let me just add that there may be a specific HDMI port on the TV that you must use if you're going to send audio to the TV separately. This should also be explained in the TV's manual.
