Connecting Macbook Air 2011 to Epson projector for Keynote

Hi,
I'm trying to connect my Macbook Air 2011 to a brand new Epson (Powerlite 1760W) projector for Keynote presentations.
I bought the recommended Monoprice mini cable from the Apple store but I can only plug it into my MBA (small squarish socket), the other end dosen't connect to the projector. It seems the projector wants a VGA cable into it.
I'm lost. Do I still need the UBS cable between the two? Do I need a USB / VGA cable instead?
Thanks in advance.

Alison,
In looking at the technical specifications (on Epson's site) for this device it would appear that you can make HDMI work - http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Product.do?sku=V11H361120&BV_UseBVCookie= yes
That being said, the HDMI end on the adapter and on the projector are most likely female. So you'll need an HDMI cable (the length will vary on how far the machine is away from the projector) but I suspect a 3 or 6 footer would work just fine. The cable is a male-to-male.

MBP Retina OS X Yosemite has distorted display when connected to Epson projector. How do I fix this?

MBP Retina OS X Yosemite has distorted display when connected to Epson projector. How do I fix this?

Hello ATLawson,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that the display, after connecting to a projector, does not have the image quality you would expect. There may be a few different troubleshooting steps I would recommend in this situation. To begin troubleshooting, I would suggest reading over and working through the information in the attached article.

Have a great day,

Converting QT to WMV files for PowerPoint presentation on PC

Hi All,
I have a client on a tight budget who wants to incorporate some talking heads into their Powerpoint presentation on their PC. I did a test with a full resolution Quicktime file but they could not play it.
My plan is to export as a Windows Media Player file but I'm not sure if there are any settings that I should be aware of before I deliver.
I am editing in DV 720 x 480. Can I keep this file size and just export at full quality?
I have both VisualHub and Flip4Mac software.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Chris

Thanks for the reminder on the size, Jim.
quick question. I've done a test using the Flip4Mac preset - One pass VBR, Presentation (high) and the clips play fine of their PC. The client is happy, But, and this is a big but for me.... I can see some green leaking through around the heads. I have worked very hard on the key using the DVGarage plug-in and it's clean on my computer.
Is something happening during the conversion to wmv? The bitrate on the presentation preset is only 80 with a peak bit rate of 160, a far cry from the 1600k cbr that you suggested. I need to deliver today and I'm not sure if I should be experimenting too much at this stage, but, on the other hand, they will be using a projector.
I could really use some advice.
Cheers,
Chris

External Projector for Slide presentation on iPhoto 09

I need assistance in using an external projector for a slide presentation of my pictures. I can not get the pictures to project. I can do Keynote presentations with no problems with the same settings. thank you for your help...

Welcome to Apple Discussions Alejandro,
iPhoto does not support slideshow play back on a secondary display like keynote does. iPhoto always displays the slideshow on the primary display. There are a few ways you can get around this:
1.) Export your slideshow as a Quicktime Movie and play it in Quicktime or iTunes
-- File > Export > Slideshow -- Check off "Display" and "Automatically send slideshow to iTunes"
-- Once your slideshow (now a movie) is in iTunes you can move itunes to your second display (or projector) and then play
2.) Change the primary display from the computer display to the projector
-- You can tell your computer to display on the projector first by changing your display preferences
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301408#3
-- Go to Apple > System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement > Drag the small white bar from the current display (which is your computer) to the secondary display (which is your projector)
-- Now play your slideshow
3.) Set your computer to use mirroring ( I don't like this option because you lose your primary display for the duration of the slideshow
-- Go to Apple > System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement >Mirror
-- Now play your slideshow
Hope that helps!

Using Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter to connect Macbook Pro (2009) for a presentation via projector.

When I connect my Macbook Pro (2009 model) using a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter to display a presentation via projector, only the top-left portion of what is displayed on my Macbook Pro's screen is displayed on the projector, as though I zoomed in on that portion of my screen. The projector is on and the adapter and the cable that connects the adapter to the projector machine is correctly connected. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

Hi glraczon.support,
It sounds like the external display you are using (projector) operates at a smaller resolution than your MacBook Pro. You may want to configure the display preferences in System Preferences for the external projector.
Here is an article that may help you with that process:

MacBook Pro connect to Epson projector

I have tried everything to no avail. Trying to connect my MacBook Pro OS X 10.7.5 to an Epson ceiling mounted projector. I am using a wall mounted HDMI cable connected directly to my MBP. I get no communication to the projector. I tried going to System Preferences and to images and applications but nothing shows up only various resolution settings. Is the resolution setting an issue? I am really frustrated since it seems to work fine with other projectors (not ceiling mounted).

Exactly the same way you would connect it to an older MBP with a mini-Displayport. The Thunderbolt port is, for your purposes, the same thing, and the same adapters work with it.

I would like a recommendation on purchasing a mini projector for client presentations for customers that cant held in conference rooms

im using a 3rd generation ipad and would like to bluetooth or hardwire the projector to my device.

Well for starters, anyone who puts audio into a PPT presentation needs to be taken out back, beaten, drawn and quartered, beaten again, put in a stockade, flogged, then beaten one final time for good measure. The only audio coming from a presentation should be the presenter speaking. The PPT slides are meant to be secondary in nature, highlighting the major points of the presentation as you go along, not be the presentation. Audio and video, even those stupid transition effects, just distract from the content. The people at Microsoft responsible for putting those features into PowerPoint, and thus opening the floodgates for all their competitors, should have all the above happen to them, and then add being shot to the very end of it. It's still far too good a fate for the **** those people have loosed unto the world.
That being said, I'm under no illusion that this is going to do anything but get worse over time, so here's the deal.
You need a MDP to HDMI adapter that is designed to also carry the audio signal. But it couldn't hurt to teach her how to ensure that the audio output device is set properly. Just in case. Or, you could do the right thing, and start smacking the people who think it's cute to put all these animations and sound effects into presentations. There are a very select few times when that sort of thing is justified, and 99.99999999999999999999999999999% of the time when one is used, it's not one of those times. Then you wouldn't really have to worry about getting audio AND video. Might be rather cathartic too.

I am trying to connect a Macbook Pro to a projector for a Powerpoint presentation. When I use a VGA cable, the color of the projected images are not good. When I use a USB cable, the projected image includes the presenter notes on my computer screen?

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
and select the Library that you moved. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.

How should i connect my new macbook air to lcd projector for presentations?

how should i connect my new macbook air to lcd projector for presentations?

One of these should work, depending on the projector. Just note both will not allow you to play protected movies on the projector.

I am considering using I Pad for a presentation and want to use it in a wireless environment and though a projector not a TV monitor. Can I use Apple TV and apple wireless base,

I am considering using I PAD for a presentation using a projector. How can this be done. will Apple TV connect to a projector and if so does the projector have to have an HDMI slot or is there some sort of adapter to convert VGA slot so it connects with Apple TV. I also want to do it wirelessly so does the Apple wireless device work for this purpose, is so what do I need to connect that to the Apple TV and to projector. So, ideally I want to be able to operate the IPAD without it being connected to cables and have the image procted on screen using a projector which only has the VGA slot not an HDMI slot. any suggestions will be appreciated.

It can use Apple Tv, but will require a wireless network as well. The Apple TV has an HDMI output, and depending on the projector it may connect directly to it through HDMI.
There are adpaters out there that will convert from HDMI to several other types such as VGA or Composite oir RGB. It would not be directly an Apple product as it would work with the HDMI cable rather than the apple TV or iPad directly.
Basically your setup should be:
iPad -> Wifi Network -> Apple TV-- HDMI Cable-->Adapter---->Projector
If the iPad is iPad 2 or above you can mirror the entire display to the projector through the apple Tv.
The Adapter would be something like this for instance:
http://www.amazon.com/Sanoxy-HDMI-Composite-S-Video-Converter/dp/B0047PDBP0
Or this:
http://www.amazon.com/ViewHD-Component-Converter-Support-Surround/dp/B004F9XVBC
With that said there are projectors that can be used wirelessly from the ipad without the need for Apple Tv or any adapter.
Epson makes one and a proprietary App to use it.

TS1702 how do i use microsoft word on my ipad? i cannot use flash on it as well neither do i use it with projector for presentation.

how can i use microsoft office on my ipad? i can't also use flash to copy and transfer documents into it and neither could i use it with a projector for presentation.

You can't use MS Office on the iPad as Microsoft haven't made app versions of their programs (you can only use apps that are in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad), but there are apps that support word, excel and powerpoint documents. The options include Apple's Pages app for Word documents, Numbers for Excel spreadsheets and Keynote for Powerpoint. And from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc

Which is the best and least expensive projector to show powerpoint presentation from a MacBook Air?

I would like to know the best and least expensive projector to use with MacBook Air to dispaly a powerpoint presentation.

Do you mean a external cd/dvd drive that connects by usb port? If you do then any brand will work. It does not have to be a apple brand for it to work on your mac. Most go for around $30 in the usa.
I use a asus brand that cost me just under $30. Works on any computer it is connect to.
