Eye TV Or Other Device for mac with HDMI IN PLEASE HELP!!!???

I want to k ow if there i a way to get my MAC to Play through and maybe record HDMI signal

Hi,
Please except my two pence...
I would like to purchase an iMac as a replacement to my TV. The iMac has a DVI output which is great for connecting to a projector for presentations however the iMac does not have a DVI input. I have seen 3-party products that enable such as the EyeTV seem fine for analogue but reading some online reviews they don’t seem to stack up if you want to connect your X-Box to you’re iMac.
As this seems an increasable waist of a fantastic screen, does anyone at Apple know if they indented in adding a DVI input socket to the iMac?
Or is there is a 3-partry device, either Firewire, USB, or Ethernet for connecting HTMI or DVI devices to a Mac without converting to an Analogue signal along the way?

  • Photoshop says "Rendering Type" and loads for a very long time, how do I fix this? I'm new to Photoshop and I was trying to learn how to make a watermark. This happens once I press the "Text" tool. I'm using a Mac with OS X. Please help, thank you.

    Photoshop says "Rendering Type" under a "Progress" Bar that shows up. I'm trying to create a watermark and this happens when I press the "Text" tool. Please help, I'm new to Photoshop. Thank you.

    So you created a document 192000 pixels wide, and 108000 tall, and  set the type to be 2 inches tall.  Yes, the type is going to take a few minutes to render in that document.
    Yes, you created a document much bigger than you probably intended (you probably wanted 1920 PIXELS by 1080 PIXELS).
    Pixels and inches are not the same, and you need to pay attention to the units.

    Hello pj o\'connell,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Please see below for instructions on troubleshooting this issue of not receiving the verification code:
    I'm not receiving the verification code via SMS.
    Make sure that you have a good cellular network connection on your phone.
    Check that your phone number is one that can receive SMS messages. You can do this by having someone send you a text message.
    Check that you have the correct phone number associated with your account:
    Devices using iOS 7.0.3 or later: Tap Settings > iCloud > Account, then tap Keychain. Check that the phone number listed under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    Macs using OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later: Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Check that the phone number listed under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    Check Apple System Status to see if there is currently a service outage affecting iCloud Keychain.

  • Approve all devices for keychain with each other

    all of my devices are asking me to use the other devices for Keychain, but the other devices aren't telling me where to do this. What do I do?

    When you set iCloud keychain up, you were asked to enter a phone number that can receive sms messages:
    Did you check your text messages on that device for a verification code?  Looks something like this:

  • Palm Desktop native for Mac with Intel

    Is there any chance of Palm Desktop native for Mac with Intel.
    To HP/Palm: please supports Palm Desktop for Mac and release a new version native for Mac with Intel. There is not competition for such a software (derived from Apple Claris Organizer). You will sell HP/Palm devices for sure. Actually, the main reason I did that in the past was because I could have the Palm Desktop software for Mac.
    Post relates to: Palm V

    I just wrote Access an inquiry about updating the Palm Destop to Mac Intel compatible. Not holding my breath. Shame such an elegant, simple and effective piece of software should just fade away.

  • Unable to Sync Outlook Contacts of Office 2011 for Mac with iPhone 5

    I have been struggling to sync my Outlook 2011 for Mac with my iPhone 5 via iTunes. Apple support says it is not possible. All thier stores say you can use Office on Mac Machines but no one says that you cannot sync contacts with iPhone. Why in the world Apple does not allow to sync contact from Outlook to iPhone? The apple support say that in the earlier version of iTune it was possible but in the current version it is not possible. Has some genius found a way to sync the Outlook 2011 contacts with iPhone using iTune or any other external software? I will be grateful for any help in the matter.

    The comment from Apple support was partially true.  If you search the web you will find that Office 2011 (latest Mac version of Office) has never been able to sync with an iPhone.  Older versions (maybe), and Windows versions possibly, but not the latest Mac version.  MS changed the format of just about everything in Outlook 2011.  It was MS that broke the iTunes ability to sync, not Apple.
    So, even though Office 2011 works just fine on a Mac, you loose the ability to sync with your iPhone.  Thank the folks in Redmond for this.

  • Compare iWork/Office for Mac with Office Windows

    I am an expert PC user switching to mac...
    I am moving toward google apps, but their doc program is not nearly as robust as MS WORD (windows). So, I need a sophisticated word processor...
    I have iWork 09 (bought it with the computer) and am considering buying MS Office for mac. I would prefer to use iWork (that is, an apple program), but don't want to go through the learning curve to find out it too is not powerful enough.
    Is there a web that reviews/compares iWork/Office for Mac with Office Windows? Or does anyone have any personal experience on how they compare? This would help me make the decision by learning only the one I will ultimately use.

    I, too, was a Windows vet until I switched in '03. My fiance has been on Mac since college--her Powerbook Duo (w/ OS 7.5) still works.

    Ditto. Google Apps are probably another year or two behind what desktop apps offer.

    I think that is what has made Office the standard for so long (and Wordperfect before it)--people don't like change...they like upgrades and enhancements, but not dramatic change. The learning curve for iWork

    Speaking as someone who owns Office 2008, I can tell you that Word '08 is dramatically slower than Pages; it is nothing like Office '07 (or earlier) for Windows. Word '07 demands a fraction of the RAM that Word '08 for Mac does, which may or may not be releated to the legacy support for older formats that Office '08 includes.
    Word does include a decent grammar checker, equation editor, and APA/MLA citation tool; however, Apple went a different route and made Pages instantly compatible with Mathtype and Endnote. My fiance is a math professor that teaches calculus, so she is no-doubt used to having to include mathematical equations and tricky text arrangements for exams, quizzes, and lesson plans; she used to use Word, but last year switched to Pages ('08) and loves it. When we downloaded the demo for iWork '09 and saw how well Mathtype integrated, she's a happy camper.
    I haven't been all that impressed with Office '08, at least not as much as I was with Office '07 for Windows. I never thought I'd say it but I think money is better spent on iWork '09, and later getting Endnote or Mathtype (if needed), than purchasing Office '08. That's my take on it, and I've been using Word/Office since 6.0 on Windows 3.1.

  • Just switching from CS4 & LR5 on Windows desktops to CS+LR monthly subcription for Mac, with catalogues, files etc residing on external HDD): Anything to be particularly aware of, or beware of, before/during switch?

    Just switching from CS4 & LR5 on Windows desktops to CS+LR monthly subcription for Mac, with catalogues, files etc residing on external HDD (due to multi-location living & lots of travel). Anything I need to be particularly aware of, or beware of, before/during switch? Thanks a lot for suggestions, recommendations, tips, experiences. Best, Joachim

    The switch should be straight forward but I would start by uninstalling LR 5. This is because there is no specific CC version of Lightroom and you can’t run the creative cloud version and the perpetual version on the same machine. Your catalog and images will be safe and will not be affected by uninstalling. CS4 will not be affected and will still work independently.
    Then launch CC desktop and go to the Apps tab. I would recommend installing in this order:
    Photoshop CC 2014
    Photoshop CC (if you need this to run old plug-ins)
    Lightroom 5
    If you install in that order LR will automatically recognize Photoshop for external editing from the LR Library.
