DVI and Ethernet Cable

Hi,
Quick question, my internet is ethernet only but i am thinking or getting a cinema display and i will need a Mini DVI to DVI adaptor.
Could someone tell me whether i can have my Mini DVI cable connected and my ethernet cable plugged in at the same time.
Thanks.

Sure you can. They are 2 different ports that are virtually unrelated. There's enough room for each cable too.
Good luck

  • Airport Self Assigned IP/No IP Address and Ethernet Cable not detected

    My aiport status keeps changing to:
    No IP Address
    Self Asigned IP
    Conected to the internet
    Even when it says connected to the internet, It isn't. Also my iMac won't detect any ethernet cable and I know the cables work because they work on my Macbook. The internet works on everything else in the house wired and wireless. It just won't work on my iMac.
    How do I fix this?

  • Time Capsule and Ethernet cable connection

    A simple question (I hope).
    I currently have a 1TB Time Capsule working as my network wireless router and my Time Machine backup device. The TC is connected wirelessly to my iMac.
    I would now like to connect the iMac to TC with an Ethernet cable in order to sped up my regular backups. (Heck, maybe it will give me a boost in Internet connection rates, too?)
    My question is this - will simply plugging an Ethernet cable into my iMac and my TC work, meaning, will I have to drill down and change settings? Or will plugging in an Ethernet cable mess up a system that has for months worked flawlessly?
    Thanks for the help!

    So you are saying I should push Ethernet to the top?
    Yes. That's how I have it. If Ethernet is first, it's my understanding that OS X will try to connect with it first. If an Ethernet connection isn't available, OS X will work its way down the list until it finds a connection. I know it doesn't stop at that point, as I routinely have simultaneous connections with Ethernet and AirPort. The AirPort signal where my MacBook normally is is weak, so I depend on the Ethernet connection. I'm guessing that the order of connection items may play some part in prioritizing the use of network connections.
    I definitely DO want to keep my Airport connection (i.e., wireless network), as I do indeed need wireless internet in my home for my iPhone, iPad, and my AirTunes streaming (which is sent to my Airport Express).
    What I've recommended won't affect any of that.

  • Kernel Panic and Ethernet Cable

    This seems too weird to be true, but my ethernet cable seems to have been responsible a kernel panic.
    At least this is what http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106464 says...
    ....If an Ethernet cable is connected to your computer, temporarily disconnect it and restart. If you have enabled NetInfo, you may need to temporarily disable it in the Directory Setup application....
    What can this mean?
    Here is the Kernel Panic log info and what I have been doing...
    Last night I installed SnapZ Pro 2 and registered it. I made it available to all users on the computer.
    Other suspicious activity... a co-worker sent a file that I thought was a AppleWorks doc, but was gibberish instead.
    This morning the iBook would not boot. Each attempt resulted in "kernel panic" screen. Ran TechTools. Found only minor errors in the Finder test.
    From another computer, I found article 106464 at doc.info.apple.com
    I tried safe boot (shift-boot). No kernel panic, but no boot either.
    I removed the ethernet cable.
    It booted.

    I think the cause is not the Ethernet cablei you questioned. Try testing the Ethernet cable for the reproducibility with another computer that does not install "Baltaks DoubleCommand" kernel extension file. I am sure the Kernel Panic called the ISI Exception (0x00400) panic type will not occur. Although a configuration set for your Ethernet device with Baltaks DoubleCommand could impact on the Instruction Storage Interrupt exception.
    Typically, this type of the panic exceptions is caused by an attempt to execute an instruction at an invalid memory address, jumping to location zero-- in your case, it is "PC=0x0000000000000000" value on the program counter register in the microprocessor.
    You will now please focus on the exception state value 0x213CD000. The closest values to this exception are indicated with the following kernel extension files (.kext).
    - com.baltaks.driver.DoubleCommand(1.6.2)@0x21bc7000
    - com.apple.driver.AppleADBKeyboard(2.3.9)@0x212e0000
    - dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOADBFamily(8.0.0)@0x21209000
    Those loaded kernel extensions at the panic phase are a family that belongs to the same region of a source inside Mac OS X operating system. Thus, the first culprit is com.baltaks.driver.DoubleCommand. However, a preconfigured insufficient setting for/on the utility could face a mapping address collision to lead up to the panic.
    If you can still start up the computer in a safe-mode without the Ethernet cable, try removing the questioned file and other related files (if you install).
    Method 1: Using command lines should be the best way; I am afraid I do not know for the syntax. Find Michael Conniff for this help.
    "sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions" could be necessary before restarting the computer.
    Method 2: Manually remove the files onto the Desktop. Then, restart the computer.
    Method 3: "Archive and Install" or "Erase and Install" solution.

  • Lockup Plugging in VGA Display and Ethernet Cable

    Three times now I have placed the MBP on a desk, opened the lid, woke it up, plugged in an active VGA adapter, plugged in an Ethernet cable... and it locks up. The mouse stops moving and it requires holding the off button to restart it. I am not entirely certain if it is the VGA, the Ethernet, or the combination that causes the issue.
    This is one of those new (June 2007) MBP 15 inch laptops. Anyone else experiencing this?
    It works perfectly once it reboots.
    Given I have only done that 3 times, it is currently 100% reproducible for me.
    MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.10)
    MacBook Pro    

    I have this problem too. I think it's something to do with current induction through the connected sound cable, caused by the electricity in the VGA adapter. I think it is because the two output sockets are parallel.
    I work in a school where all the staff use the latest 15" MBP. The problem occurs in maybe different rooms with different sound equipment.
    The buzzing goes when the output is converted to an XLR cable (to be plugged into a sound mixer) via a DI box AND this DI box has the "ground" switch selected. This does not solve the problem for a home user and does not solve my problem as once sent into a DI box, the sound signal become mono. I'd need to double up everything and split the signal before converting, and grounding it, which would mean buying 2 DI boxes for each set up. Rather expensive!
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • Problems with Airport and Ethernet cable

    Hi
    I wonder if anyone can help please, i have a really annoying little problem with my Airport Extreme. I use the internet either at my friends through his wireless internet or at an internet cafe via their ethernet cable.
    Recently I keep getting an error message up every 20 seconds or so that says 'Could not find a PPPoE server' and i have to click connect in my built in ethernet settings before the cable or even the wireless internet connection works again and this is getting really frustrating. Is there any way to restore my internet connect settings so that using airport and plugging an ethernet cable in will be a bit more straight forward.
    Any help that you can give me would be very much appreciated.
    Many Thanks

    Hello davehtaylor. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Recently I keep getting an error message up every 20 seconds or so that says 'Could not find a PPPoE server' and i have to click connect in my built in ethernet settings before the cable or even the wireless internet connection works again and this is getting really frustrating.
    Is it possible that you have PPPoE enabled in either or both your AirPort and Built-in Ethernet settings on your Mac? If so, you should only need to disable them to remove this warning.
    o AirPort: System Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort > PPPoE > Connect using PPPoE (disabled)
    o Built-in Ethernet: System Preferences > Network > Show > Built-in Ethernet > PPPoE > Connect using PPPoE (disabled)

  • Migrate using Thunderbolt adapter and Ethernet cable?

    Hello
    I need to Migrate data from a 2009 MacBook Pro to a 2014 MacBook Pro Retina.
    Can I use an 'Apple Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter' plus an Ethernet cable to do this?
    (the 2009 MBP has an Ethernet port, but the 2014 MBPR doesn't)
    Or, will the Apple Thunderbolt cable alone work to connect from the Firewire 800 port on the 2009 MBP to the Thunderbolt 2 port on the 2014 MBPR?
    Thanks!

    One more thing: can I use the USB ports on both devices?

  • HT5219 Thunderbolt port devices and ethernet cables doesn't work under Windows 7 or 8 via Boot Camp unless I restart my computer... how are the apple developers so dump to not realize this mistake

    How can you not resolve a problem so essentail related to swapping thunderbolt devices when running bootcamp? Everytime I diconnect a thunderbolt device, I have to restart in bootcamp for the mackbook pro to recognize it. Considering that I apid ~$3K for this laptop when I could have got a dell for half the price, it such a poor technology. How can apple developers be so dump that they didn't design a drive to resolve the issue... and to make it even more dumber, they acknowledge it ... hello any one with brains after steve jobbs passed away there!!!

    I don't have a Thunderbolt machine but according to this article, Windows doesn't support Thunderbolt at all. That means Apple had to add Thunderbolt support in order for it to work even as it does. How would a Dell have solved your problem?

  • Problems connecting a Officejet 7310 wirelessly and via ethernet cable

    My printer (a Officejet 7310) is connected to two PC's via a router and ethernet cable. I now wish to install a laptop as well.
    I know the lap top is communicating with the router wirelessly, but I cannot get the laptop to recognise that there is a printer installed.
    I have tried connecting the printer directly (via an Ethernet cable) to the laptop and this works fine. I have downloaded the latest software for the 7310 and utilised both options (wireless and cable).
    Any help would be most appreciated.
    This question was solved.

    OK, great, I have a much better understanding now.  Thanks.
    Do you have an antivirus program?  Does it have a firewall?  If so, disable it to test.
    Print a network test from the front of the printer to obtain its IP address.  Type that IP address into a browser to see if you can contact the printer.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 refuses to be recognized by my Windows 7 via router, USB or Ethernet cable

    This is a really strange problem. I owned a computer store for 20 years and I had never encountered a wierd problem such as this. It really has me scratching my head.
    I purchased the HP wireless printer 3 days ago, replacing a Kodak all in one wireless printer that I used for 3 months.
    I have been trying for the past 3 days, working up to 10 hours per day on it, trying to get my main tower computer with 32 bit Windows 7 to recognize the printer via the wireless router, the USB cable direct and Ethernet cable from the router to the printer with no success.
    The tower is hard wired to a TP-Link router.
    Strange as it is, my 2 laptops, one with Windows Xp and the other with Windows Vista, had no problem at all connecting, accepting, installing and printing out test sheets for me. Both notebooks installed as they should have.  However, my tower with 32 bit Windows 7  absolutely will not connect. There has to be something in the tower that is causing this problem.
    I have tried to connect directly to the printer using an USB cable from my tower to the printer, it failed.
    I have tried using an Ethernet cable plugged directly from the router to the printer, that failed also.
    I have uninstalled the HP software 4 times, cleaned the registry and reinstalled the HP software with no different results.
    I have booted up with minimum Microsoft files only, I have booted up in safe mode, I have booted up as Administrator - still the tower will not recognize the printer.
    I have downloaded & installed the HP software as well as using the CD, the patch, the firmware upgrade and several other programs that HP offers, none has helped.
    I have scanned and scanned the internet for possible solutions now for 3 days, nothing I have tried has worked yet.
    I have removed my anti-virus software and shut off the firewall. It made no difference at all.
    I manually added the HP printer on my tower via the control panel, it would not connect to the printer that way either.
    I have restored my registry numerous times back to before any attempts to add the printer, that didn't help.
    However, I can access the printer via my internet browser by typing in the printer's address  192.165.1.106
    Believe it or not,  I can print a test page from there and I can also scan the test page. I just can't get my tower to recognize this printer.
    This is really driving me buggy, any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
    I currently have an HP 1300 Laserjet on the network, non-wireless, and it works great with all computers via the router.
    I have a 2nd tower currently having a mother board repaired, I would bet that it will work when I get it back.

    Thanks for your comments.
    I tried a new Ethernet cable hard wired between the printer and the router. Since the computer is wired via an Ethernet cable to the router and the router is wired directly to the printer, one would think the computer would see the printer but it won't.
    I also tried a brand new 10 foot USB cable between the computer and the printer, it failed and it wouldn't install the software either.
    I am adding a 2nd hard drive next week and going dual boot, that should work on the new drive at least.
    An associate, who is the best networking guy in town,  just left my house after trying for 2 hours to find a cure or the problem, he finally gave up. Like me, he thinks it may be something in the registry.

  • OS X 10.4 to Windows XP via direct ethernet cable connection

    Hi,
    I'm trying to help my friend connect her new MacBook to her old Windows PC notebook so she can transfer her music and other files. They are connected via a single Ethernet cable. (I spent an hour searching the Web and for the life of me I can't find a clear, easy-to-follow procedure for how to do this; even the Switch 101 website only provides half of the information needed).
    anyway... Her PC's IP address is 169.254.x.x (self-assigned I guess) but her Mac can still connect to it. Upon entering in her credentials she sees error code -36. I asked her to follow http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301580 but it still does not work; she still gets an error.
    Ideas? Any help or links to make this easier would be greatly appreciated. If at all possible, I don't want her to take it to an Apple Genius, I don't want her to go and buy/download extra freeware/software/hardware to do the job - unless I'm missing something big here, OS X and Windows XP should be able to do the job with a minimum of fuss, and if the instructions are straightforward enough I'd like to make a document showing people how to do this sort of thing.

    Peter,
    Based on your post I see that you are trying to transfer files through and ethernet cable. I don't think this is possible, correct me if I'm wrong, with just a plain ethernet cable.
    Try using a Cross-Over cable. It's easy to find. You can find it at your local electrionics store, such as Best Buy or CompUSA.
    There is also another method besides tranferring with an ethernet cable. You can use CD's and DVD's, (DVDs work a lot better for space). This will take a lot longer with a bit more effort and time. But, you can get the job done.
    Good luck.

  • MB Air cannot see TC 1T '09 while connected via WiFi and Ethernet.

    I have a TC 1T 2009 7.4.1 that I have set up successfully with MB Pro and MB White. However I cannot set it up with MB Air v.1 which is connected to TC via WiFi AND Ethernet cable. Internet is fine (Safari) but no TM - when I run APU 5.4.1 it cannot discover the TC it is connected to.
    I tried connecting after hard-reset (poke/power on), it would see the TM but then hang forever reading the configuration. So I set it up with MB Pro and MB White and both are now working fine with TC/TM. Then I tried MB Air and it failed.
    The TC is connected via ethernet to Sagem router (bridged mode) which supplies WAN and DHCP, it has its own WiFi as well.

    And by the way, Hi Everyone, how rude of me not to greet you in the post.
    Thanks for any help!

  • Can I add a second Airport Express using an Ethernet cable to extend my network if the first AX is wirelessly connected to an Xtreme?

    Hi, I run a small motel and I am trying to extend the wireless network from the office to the rooms in the next building.
    I have an AirPort Xtreme connected to my router with an ethernet cable and it works fine.  I have then connected an AirPort Express to this in the next bulding wirelessly (as i cant run an ethernet cable outside) which extends the network over all but the last 2 rooms in the next building.  There are bick walls so it sruggles over the distance.  I realise I cant connect another airport express wirelessly to extend the network further but can I connect another Airport Express using and ethernet cable to the exisiting Aiport Express to extend the network that extra distance?

    You can do this, but as you might imagine, that is going to place even more of a load on the weakest link....the wireless "hop"......between your AirPort Extreme and the current AirPort Express.
    So, things will slow down even more. Whether or not that will be acceptable to your guests is open to question. Light browsing and email should be OK. Someone trying to download a large file is going to be waiting longer than they might consider normal.
    Things like this, you simply cannot predict in advance. Might be a good idea to understand the store's return policy if the new Express puts more of load on the network than is expected.
