-Put the powerbook to sleep > connect the monitor > turn on the monitor > wake powerbook.
-Or, turn powerbook off > connect the monitor > turn on the monitor . turn on the powerbook.

I tried changing the settings on the monitor from PC mode to DVI mode and nothing. I have also tried changing the display on the computer to a couple of different settings and nothing. Please Help?

I just purchased a new mac mini and would like to use my old dell monitor. I tried a HD to VGA adapter converter,it plugs in, but nothing shows on the monitor. Any suggestions?
What do you mean by "HD to VGA adapter converter"?
Do you mean have an HDMI to VGA adapter connected the the Mini's HDMI port?
Or maybe you plugged n the the included HDMI to DVI adapter and then connected a DVI to DVI adapter?
In either case that will not work since VGA is analog and the Mini's HDMI port is digital only.
You need to purchase a mini displayport to VGA adapter. It plugs into the Mini's Thunderbolt port.

Make sure you get a name--brand one. I purchased some el cheapo, no-name ones and they did not work -
I'm a new MAC user and I'm trying to transfer my iTunes music files to my Mac, however when I attach the external drive that contains the music files, the music files aren't visible on the MAC (but they are visible on my old PC). How do I get my music transferred? I have already exported the purchased music from the iTunes library, but I have thousands of songs from my private CD collection that I had previously loaded through iTunes.

I just replaced the hard drive for my Mac Pro, and I am trying to restore what is on my Time Capsule, but it wont connect, and only is giving me the pinwheel of death. What do i do?
You will need to boot from some alternate boot device to accomplish this, if you did not initialize the drive before installing it.
If you have another Mac, you may be able to use FireWire target disk mode.
If your MacBook has a DVD reader and you have a Mac OS X Installer/Utilities DVD, such as the one that shipped with it, you can boot from that DVD, answer only the "what Language" question, and wait a quarter minute for the MenuBar to be drawn. Then examine the Utilities menu or the Installer menu and Find Disk Utility. -

Ask the Verizon store to exchange your iPhone for a different iPhone 4.
UPDATE - Sure, try ckuan's solution first. Then use mine if that fails.

I have Mac mini and I'm trying to listen to music through YouTube it works. But my problem is that instead of the music playing through the tv speakers it plays through the Mac box. ):
Are you using HDMI or an Apple Airplay Module to go to the TV Speakers?
If you are using an HDMI it's straight through output. The internal speakers are disabled.
If you are using an Airplay Module:
- Go on iTunes
- Locate the Airplay icon that has a TV with an up arrow icon much like your iPhone has for Bluetooth
- Click on that and Airplay to ModuleName -
I am on Itunes right now and i am on a mac computer and i am trying to buy games for an ipod touch that i have but it just lists ipad and iphone apps so if i buy iphone apps will i be able to download them my my ipod 5th generation
No. If it states designed for both iPad and iPhone, then it won't run on an iPod touch.

Trying to plug in an hdmi tv to macbook pro rentina and it keeps trying to adjust and just flashes., Trying to plug in an hdmi tv to macbook pro rentina and it keeps trying to adjust sizing and just flashes and never stops.
Any help?First than all, check your video input (TV Video), check in all possible channels, and make sure the HDMI is plugged in correctly. If you did plug it in correctly, and checked all possible channels of Video Input, and it doesn't appear, you should try rebooting your MacBook Pro (with the HDMI disconnected), after it's back on, try plugging it in back again. If the problem persists, I recommend you to go to a Certified Apple Store, and have them check it.
Hope this helps!

Designing and rendering for output on an HD LCD monitor 16:9
Hi,
I've just completed an animation at 720 x 480 pixels.
I made sure that all my images imported were larger than I needed, just in case.
I need this to be played on a 42 inch monitor 1080 p.
I just realized that 720 x 480 is going to be pixelated on that size.
what output settings do I need to choose to make it look good on 42 inch plasma 1080p
If this is a dumb question I'm sorry, then please point me to some tutorials. All I can find are tutorials on how to do whiz bang effects, there aren't many simple ones for stuff like this.It depends on what device you will use (ie, connect to the LCD TV) to feed the content.
Widescreen DVDs are always 720x480 anamorphic (like the NTSC DV Widescreen preset in AE), and if all other variables are good (source material, encoding, etc), they can and do look terrific. Contrary to popular belief, there evidently are other aspects to image quality, besides pure pixel count.
If you want better than that and send HD video to your TV or monitor, it can't be a DVD. A DVD-Video disc is always standard definition. So, it has to be a Blu-Ray disc, or hook-up a computer display output to the LCD TV, or use one of the very affordable HDMI-capable media players (such as the Western Digital TV, or Popcorn Hour, for example).
In all of these cases, you can pick the HDTV 1080 Composition preset in AE, with the frame rate you need. The resulting Composition will be 1920x1080 with square pixels.
For Blu-Ray output you need an authoring application like Adobe Encore and a Blu-Ray burner (and player, obviously).
To send HD video from a media player like the the WD TV, or from a computer hooked up to your TV, you usually want to encode a high-bitrate H264 or MPEG-2 video file.
Since this is too broad in reach, once you figure out which route you want, let us know and we'll try to help with the details. -
I am working with a Mac Pro and I am trying to capture an HD video in iMovie.
I used a Sony HVR-Z1U Camcorder to record a video in HD. I have tried connecting the camera via firewire to my Mac to capture the video in iMovie. Firewire 4pin to 6pin. My computer does not detect the camera and i cannot pull up the video in iMovie.
Is my Mac compatible with the sony camera? Do i need a driver?
Is my Mac compatible with HD?
Is iMovie Compatible with my camera?
Is iMovie compatible with HD?Is the camera switched on with the power switch set to VCR (and not CAMERA) mode?
Is the camera listed under

HT204319 I have a Power mac G4 and I'm trying to upgrade it so I can transfer it to a new Imac
I just purchaseda new Imac and am trying to transfer data from my old PowerMac G4 that has ssytem 10.5.8
When following the prompts from the new Imac it asked me to open Migration assistant which I did.
The new computer found the old but there was a yellow triangle with an excamation point in it, I clicked that and it said I needed to update the old computer to a newer version.
That's where I'm stuck.http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5872 says
Migration Assistant in Mavericks is compatible with OS X Snow Leopard v10.6.8 or later. If you are migrating from an earlier version of OS X, update your older computer first, or manually copy your data from one computer to another.
You cannot upgrade your Mac to 10.6.8 so you will have to transfer the data manually as indicated in the linked page. -
The time capsule was used with my prior Mac Pro laptop that unfortunately had the home vault active on it.
My new Mac Book Pro does not have home vault open. But I am unable to back up my new MAC pro laptop because it says there is not enough storage space available. Therefore, t there any way to just completely delete all the old backup data out of my Time Capsule from my prior Mac Laptop?
When I go into the time capsule - it shows me NOTHING as being in the backup datas. So, I don't know where to begin to delete all the old data off the
time Capsule and start with a completely empty machine.Therefore, t there any way to just completely delete all the old backup data out of my Time Capsule from my prior Mac Laptop?
Here is how to do this:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click the Disks icon at the top of the AirPort Utility window
Click the Disks tab below the icons
Click Erase
The "Quick Erase" option will only take a moment or two
Now you can backup your MacBook Pro. If you connect an Ethernet cable from the MBP to one of the LAN <-> ports on the TC, the first backup will go 3-5 times faster than wireless.
Once you have the first backup done, you can use wireless for subsequent backups since they will only take a few minutes
