HDMI connected to work flatscreen not displaying, but detected

Hi all.
I'm having an HDMI output problem on a MacBook pro retina, just got it a couple days ago.
When I connect to the flatscreen in the conference room (Toshiba) via HDMI, the mac screen does it's resolution-switching blue flicker, and I get, in the displays prefs, confirmation of the fact that it sees the Toshiba. However, no image on the Toshiba.
I consider myself a pretty adept wrangler of these things and I'm stumped. Things I've tried:
* Running in forced dedicated card mode
* Running in forced integrated card mode
* Scaling to all the available resolutions (believe me I tried every combo)
* Trying all the refresh rates
* Plugging in another Macbook (one with an mini dongle to HDMI) and it works fine, so input is correct, etc.
* Trying mirrored
* Trying non-mirrored
* Rebooting the TV
* Rebooting the computer
* Made sure all the update are applied (including the displays firmware one)
* Blowing on the cables (I'm superstitious)
I'm considering animal sacrifice.
Any thoughts? It seems like getting rid of a dongle should simplify, not complicate things!

Sorry ilesal, I was referring to the OP. The solution that worked for me was enabling 'dynamic switching' in gfxCardStatus. However, that was the first option the OP tried, so I'm sorry I cannot help
On the bright side, I have had nothing but success with Apple Customer Support. My two previous rMBPs were faulty (I'm on my third now - finally got one without software or hardware problems) and I had no problems exchanging them for brand new units, even when outside the 14-day grace period. If you have the possibility to go to an Apple Store in your area, and if you can stand to deal with the "Geniuses", I think it might be worth your trouble. Good luck!

  • Welogic 9.2 jdbc connection pool monitoring section not displaying server

    Welogic 9.2 managed jdbc connection pool monitoring section not displaying server name. Can you please let me know how can i achive this

    Hi,
    It happens if the Connectivity is Lost b/w DataBase & WLS Server...In that case in the WLS AdminConsole---DataSource---Monitoring Tab you wont see even the Testing Page with valid datasource to test it.
    So please make sure that the N/W connectivity proper....One more thing you can try:
    <h3><font color=red>Test-1</font></h3>
    You can use *“weblogic.Admin”* utility to Enable and Disable the Pool (DataSource) Just to Confirm whether the dataSource is actually active or not::
    Step1). run *"setWLSEnv.sh"* first in the same Shell prompt....then do the following:
    Step2). To suspend:
    java weblogic.Admin -url t3://localhost:7001 -username weblogic -password weblogic SUSPEND_POOL YourDataSourceName
    Step3). To re-enable:
    java weblogic.Admin -url t3://localhost:7001 -username weblogic -password weblogic RESUME_POOL YourDataSourceName
    To test whether you are getting any Exception or Error while doing this....If yes u are getting any Error or exception then It means there May be some Database connectivity issue...
    <h3><font color=red>Test-2</font></h3>
    Please use the following Utility to Test the Database connectivity from your WLS Server box:
    <font color=maroon>
    java -classpath /opt/app/bea/weblogic92mp2/weblogic92/server/lib/weblogic.jar -Dbea.home=/opt/app/bea/weblogic92mp2   utils.dbping ORACLE_THIN DbUserName DBPassword somethingDbUrl.Something.net:1521:dbInstance
    </font>
    Syntax:
    java   -classpath /opt/app/bea/weblogic92mp2/weblogic92/server/lib/weblogic.jar   -Dbea.home=/opt/app/bea/weblogic92mp2   utils.dbping   ORACLE_THIN   <DBUserName>   <DBPassword>   <DBURL>
    The above utilty will test the DB Connectivity ...you need to run it from your WLS server Box...

  • Wirless icon not displaying, but says I am connected to network

    I am a new Iphone user, so I apologize is this a rookie questions. I believe I am connected to my house wireless connected as the name of my network is checked off when I go to settings and Wifi.
    My question is, though, why is my icon not displaying on the top left corner? It displays when I am connected at work and everywhere else I was able to connect. Is there something in my settings that I may have checked?
    And, does that mean I am not really connected wirelessly?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Thanks, all. So, I just rebooted and there was no change.
    Then, as SteveCWatkings recommended, I went into my settings page. I went into the properties page, and there isn't anything listed beside IP address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS, etc. They are all empty...
    *UPDATE*
    Okay, something just happened. AS I WAS RESPONDING, I was clicking on each of the fields (IP address, Subnet, etc to see if I could enter information since they were empty. And,when I got to DNS, it allowed me to type something in. Not knowing what to enter, I clicked back and it took me back to the Settings page. So, I clicked on my network again and when I tapped my network, all the fields were filled in, and the icon appeared.
    So, now it appears to be connected. I don't know if it will remain connected, or if I had to tap something (DNS?) or if it was glitch, but it appears to be working now.
    Thanks a ton!

  • Design view not displaying but code view is ok

    Hi Everyone,
    my design view in dreamweaver cs5.5 is not displaying anything but all the code is there and my page online is working fine http://www.exclusivewindowtint.com.au/car-window-tinting.html
    How can i fix this as easy as possible? this is only happening to this one page on my website.
    Thank You
    George

    I have to second  Murray on this.
    I will go a step further and say ignoring errors on your site because someone else's site has some is extremely poor advice, especially considering the volume of people visiting this forum alone with a random display problems that are solved by simply correcting the errors found in the validators.
    Restoring from a backup may work this time, but why did it work? That's where validation, and understanding what the validator is telling you, pays off. You somehow inadvertantly mangled your table code, will that ever happen again? What happens if your backup also has the same mangled code next time?
    Some validation errors are never going to affect display and can be completely ignored from a "how does this affect my design" point of view, like missing an alt attribute on an image for instance. Others, like missing or improperly nested html elements, can kill your design in browsers or rendering engines that can't handle major errors (like most versions of IE or DW's Design View) while everything looks fine in a browser better programmed to handle problems (like Chrome or Firefox).
    Bottom line is, the validators are extremely useful tools, do not ignore the  error report unless you understand which errors can be ignored.

  • When I connected iPhone 4,5 and 6 it's showing connected and working, only not showing wireless icon on top of screen

    As per attached wireless design I have two outdoor access points connected to cisco 5508 controller, everything is working fine only problem is that when I connected iPhone 4,5 and 6 it's showing connected and working! only not showing wireless icon on top of screen (see the attached icon), but when I connected to Android like Samsung it's showing connected and showing icon as well top of screen.
    Advanced thanks and highly appreciate

    I have an iPhone 4, 5 & 6 and when successfully connected to the controller all does have the wireless icon on the top left. I don't think they are connected to the wireless... Might be associated, but not authenticated. Look at the client on the controller and see if they are in the policy state: RUN  If they are not in the RUN state, then they are not connected.

  • Album Art work does not display

    So, in my iTunes my album artwork is not displayed. The files are on my computer, they just don't show up on my iTunes. I noticed the problem after I upgraded to Leopard, but in all honesty I could have had the problem before that without noticing. So, anyone have any ideas of what might be going on?

    Not sure if I have the same problem or not. My album art work shows up fine on the i-pod and in the small "now playing" window on the lower left of my pc but the main view window shows that "Itunes is unabke to browse album covers on this computer". I was always able to view this for as long as I have had the i-pod in the past before but now cant. On my PC (I tunes)the "Cover flow view" is selected and no matter what preference is selected the same message comes up and can not see album art work anymore on main window above song list.

  • TS4123 I cannot connect to ITunes store from Windows Vista.  Get unknown error (0x80092013) message but am network connected.  Diagnostics say not administrator, but am.  No LSP.  HELP!

    Network connection IS active.  Network connectivity test confirms, but shows Secure link to ITunes store failed.  Tried help from diagnostics but get message that help is unavailable because computer isn't connected to internet (but it is).  Diagnostic details show current user is not administrator (but is).  Details show basic connection to the store failed.  Tried all the "helps"/solutions I could find--  ie flush dns, No LSP except Bonjour, firewalls, etc. and still can't connect.  What can I do????

    Must have Admin password for the OS system to know you are Admin -
    that error is known for eventually having to either
    1 Unintall reinstall itune or
    2 Reinstall Windows

  • Data selected is not displaying but when refresh the browser it displays

    The system brings back a record after the record is selected from the database. The data is in memory but is not display. When the browser is refreshed, the data displays.

    Sorry but this is an internal system. The problem is baffling because there seems to be no consistency in its patterns. Sometimes when we pull up an account, it would show the info. Other times the same information does not come up. We thought it could be missing records, i.e. orphaned rows, but this isn't the case. It is quite odd and especially hard to bug because we can't consistently replicate it.

  • Email body not displaying but preview shows text.

    Hi,
    I have been experiencing a consistent problem with emails from one sender. When I open mail I see who the message is from and a preview of the first few words of text, if I then open this message it displays no text at all. If I forward the message all of the text becomes present.
    Any ideas what might be causing this? It displays fine on Mobileme and Apple mail on the Mac, it just seems to be an iPhone bug.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Steve

    This just started happening to me. I can see all my email and I can see a few lines of preview text. But the message will not display when I tap on it.
    I deleted the IMAP account from the phone and then re-added it. Still didn't fix it.
    Did a restart of the phone like other poster suggested and it fixed it. Still seems like a pretty weird bug.
    IMAP server is Zimbra. iOS 4 on the phone.

  • The calendar sync is recently not working correctly, not display "All events" but it only displays the last six months for my individual entries. My repeating entires do go back further, though. How do I fix?

    I have an iPad 5.1.1. The calendar sync has started to not work correctly. I have it checked "All events," but it only displays the last two months for my individual entries. My repeating entires do go back further, though. How do I fix?

    HI Jason269. Thanks for your reply, however I wrote that I already have "All events" checked. If All Events is checked and it doesn't diaplay all events, how do I fix? It seems this is a common issue, as I have read many others on here state the same problem.
    I believe my problem occurred when I synced my iMac calendar to my iPad calendar using yahoo. Yesterday, I unsynced them on my iMac controls. When I checked my iPad calendar, all of my old entries reappeared - but only for five seconds and disappeared again. So, the data is saved and still there but cannot be displayed, even when I have All events checked. In fact, it only shows my individual entries for the last two months, but does show all my recurring entries. If I switched to last six months, I will see everything for the last six months. If I switch back to all events, it is only for the last two months.
    As I mentioned, others on here have expressed exactly the same issue, including the two month example and having used yahoo.
    For legal purposes, I need to be able to use the information from my indidual calendar entries in an upcoming court case. So I really need to fix this ASAP!

  • Videos not displaying but audio is working

    I am trying to access videos online.  I have done all updates I can think of.  I have restarted the machine numerous times.  I have exhausted my knowledge of fixes.  When accessing videos via youtube, or other media sites, I am unable to view them cleanly.  They are very choppy, they skip, and sometimes just dont show at all.  However, the audio works perfectly.  I have no problem hearing the video, it is just viewing.  I have also noticed the advertisements on the edges of most websites seem to do the same thing; they will either flicker or not show up at all.  Does anyone know how to repair this problem?
    Also, do I update to Mac OS X (10.6.8)?

    My guess is that you're trying to watch HD YouTube videos with a less than satisfactory connection speed.  When I'm at home, YouTube works perfectly with my overpriced internet connection.  If I'm staying at a hotel, with bad speed, I get choppy video.
    Also, Flash has terrible memory leaks.  If you don't force quit Flash every once in a while it starts to use up so much memory that it might cause an issue.  I go into Activity Monitor and kill Flash every time I think there's a problem.

  • Google home page will not display but everything else works (bookmarks,etc)

    When I start FF, the page says server was reset before loading complete, yet my other system does just fine with same version of FF.
    Just started last night and haven't gone to malicious website as they are blocked by Avast well and no emails came in.
    Even reinstalled FF.
    Please advise.
    Thanks everyone.

    FYI for everyone. Found that if your homepage does not come up and you get "Server reset while page was loading" and can't get it to change, then disable all plugins and restart Firefox. Home page should come up.
    Now Firefox comes up fine. Will check other issue on cookies not deleting.

  • KanaaN Mini DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't work on 2013 MBA but does for 2011 Air?

    This cable has worked well with my wife's 2011 air for ouputing audio and video through our Onkyo receiver:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/KanaaN-Mini-...pr_product_top
    However, I can't get it to work on my new 2013 Air. My Air's display will flash like other Air's do when you plug in a cable, or power on a receiver connected by cable to my Mac. But I can't see external speakers in System Prefs/Audio/Output. An no sound outputs.
    Both my wife's Air and mine are Thunderbolt so can anyone think of a reason for why this would work on hers and not on my 2013 Haswell air?
    Thanks.

    Then unless there's some newer/different setup in 2011 13" MBP (if so, I'd look in Displays), it sounds like a hardware issue, either with the cable or the MBP.
    I would contact AppleCare, as you are still in your three month free phone support, and one year hardware warranty.
