Help needed....can I display my intel imac on this TV?.....................

Im thinking of getting this TV but before I do I need to know if I can display my intel imac on it....
http://www.pantheronline.co.uk/shop.php?Call=showdetail&stock_id=LE32R74BDX&ref= pricerunner&epi=615336
Does anyone know? If so what leads do I need?
Thanks in advance!

The iMac Intel has a Mini DVI Port.According to PantherOnline that TV has a HDMI port so you would need:
Apple Mini DVI to DVI adaptor.
A DVI to HDMI adaptor and a HDMI lead. This will be the best quality possible.
According to dabs.com (which incidentally is much cheaper (£160 less) than on the site you list) for the same model lists a VGA port on the Samsung. So you could use the Apple Mini DVI - VGA adaptor and a suitable VGA cable; although the quality will be somewhat less it should still be very acceptable.
Before you buy any electronics check the prices internet wide...

How can I check if my iMac has this update? OS X Lion v10.7.5 Update

It's not technically challenging, but it isn't clearly necessary. In any case here's how:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Use G5 iMac as external monitor/display for Intel iMac?

I have a 24" Intel iMac and a 20" G5 iMac (which is sort of mothballed now).I was wondering if it is possible to use the older iMac as an external monitor, mainly to save the expense of buying a "proper" external display when there seems to be a perfectly usable one sitting there in the G5 iMac.

translate.google.com.
Actually, it didn't translate very well. But the instructions are basically how to wire up an adapter cable. The G5 iMac appears to use standard DVI signals, so you just need to make a DVI cable to plug in to the internal connector. The table between pages 7 and 8 is what you want. If you've used a soldering iron around electronic devices before, that table is pretty much all you need. The picture of the backside on page 9 is neat. Using the ethernet connector hole to route the wiring. Almost looks like it came from the factory that way.

Help needed: replacement of display panel (HP Pavilion G7-1150US)

Hi all,
My brand new (< 2months old) HP Pavilion G7 1150US laptop's screen is broken, I need help in buying the panel. Where can I purchase the display panel.
I dont need the complete display assembly (unless the cost is not more than a few bucks of that of the panel alone), i just need the panel.

Macbook display on intel iMac??

Hello
I have a 24inch iMac and want to know is there anyway of using it as a display for a intel Macbook?
Thanks
Joe
iMac (intel) 24inch Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Glor,
I know this is WAY outside what the OP intends but your response got me thinking of POSSIBLE ways of doing this. Unfortunately I haven't a laptop to give this a try, but...
Since I assume you can get the laptop to display on a TV with some sort of settings, cable, could that instead be fed via a VCR? If so, it may be theoretically possible to then view that as a feed to an EyeTV which in turn would display on the iMac.
Ridiculously complex solution if it would work, but might be fun to investigate for someone who happened to have all the components on hand.

Can I start up intel imac mid 2010 model running os 10.7 with a verbatim external drive running os 10.6 so I can run some older power pc apps to get and archive old data

can I start up an intel imac mid 2010 model running 10.74 with an external verbatim drive running os 10.6 so I can access data on some powerpc applications. If so any help on procedure would be great. thanks for any help

Yes, that model can be booted into Snow Leopard 10.6.3 or later. Use the discs that came with the computer to install a compatible version of OS X for the model.

Urgent help needed: how to display a list of records on the screen

Hello,
This is very urgent. Can anyone help me. I have posted this query of mine before also but still no reply came. My whole application is dependent on this problem. Actually I am developing an application for mobile phone using MIDP. I have a record store which contains personal details for users. I am able to add records to the record store. Now I want that these records can be edited. For this I want to display a list of firstname field on the screen (and not console) so that i can select a user to edit its details. I have written the code to read the records and individual fields and display it on the console but i want to display that list on screen. I tried list and array but it s giving some error.
I am giving the code to read the records below. Please tell me how can I display it in a list on the screen.
public void readStream(){
try
byte[] recData=new byte[50];
String varname;
ByteArrayInputStream strmBytes = new ByteArrayInputStream(recData);
DataInputStream strmData=new DataInputStream(strmBytes);
if (rsperdt.getNumRecords() > 0){
ComparatorString comp=new ComparatorString();
int i=1;
RecordEnumeration re=rsperdt.enumerateRecords(null, comp, false);
while(re.hasNextElement()){
rsperdt.getRecord(re.nextRecordId(), recData,0);
System.out.println("Record #" + i );
varname = strmData.readUTF();
System.out.println("Name #"+varname);
System.out.println("---------------------------");
i=i+1;
strmBytes.reset();
comp.compareStringClose();
re.destroy();
strmBytes.close();
catch(Exception e){
System.err.println("read Records class:read");
}

I could not understand ur point "post the code in tags". I am pasting the code below. Please help as my whole application is stuck due to this problem and I have a deadline of 7th oct.

Urgent help needed, can I restore N900 Backup file...

i owned a N900 (now sold out)
before selling i took backup of contacts from backup restore option in application section
now i bought a N8 but i m not able to restore my contacts
1. is there any way to restore them in N8?
2. if not, can i convert them in TEXT or any readable format
urgent help needed
thanks in advance

The backup procedures built into the phone are only designed for restoring to the same phone (ie: in case or data corruption, software update or repair etc.), they can't usually be used to restore to a phone with a different operating system.
You should have backed up with Ovi Suite before selling the N900, that would have been able to restore to the N8.

True you can't clean install Intel iMacs?

Hi,
When I get a new Mac I generally zero out the drive and reinstall the OS and apps from the provided install discs and run a clean system without all the extra languages, etc.
Somewhere on this forum I thought I read that the new Intel iMacs cannot be restored from the install discs after zeroing the HD.
Is this correct? If so, why not?

It doesn't matter if you clean install it or not as
far as bluetooth goes. When you first boot the
computer after a clean install, it will do a search
for a bluetooth mouse or keyboard by default.
glor
I learned something very disturbing earlier today from Applecare Tech Support. I tried to boot from my install DVD (holding "c" down as instructed) but it hung. Tried three times with same result. When I called Applecare, they said you MUST HAVE A WIRED KEYBOARD AND MOUSE to boot from the install DVD because Bluetooth doesn't activate early enough for the wireless input devices to be seen in order to complete the various commands.
Their advice - go buy a USB keyboard and mouse so when I have to boot from the install DVD, I can!
This after I ordered my iMac online and PAID EXTRA for the wireless and, on top of that, was not sent a USB set along with the wireless. I feel a little ripped off...

Please Help:I Can't Display Album Artwork!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took the display album art check away because I couldn't see the album artwork. I then checked it back on and it still won't show the album artwork. It says ERORR (-50). Can anyone tell me how to fic this???-Thanks, Ray

I had a problem where the incorrect album art was displaying once in a while. I used the 'fix' of disabling the art and then re-enabling it. I got the same (-50) error, and ended up with most of the art disappearing (I guess because it bombed out of the process).
I ended up using the iPod updater to do a restore which blew away everything and set it back to a clean unit. I then re-synced everything from iTunes (after re-enabling the album art) and all was sweet - haven't noticed another problem with the album art since doing this.

17" combo drive Intel iMac- is this the right external DVD drive to get?

Earlier in the week, I bought a refurbished 17” white Intel iMac from the Apple Store. It came without the Superdrive, only the combo drive.
As this will be a holiday gift for a niece with small kids, I thought being able to burn DVD’s using iDVD would be nice for her. I understand she can attach an external FW DVD drive to do this, and I just want to make sure to give her the right info for buying in case she wants it (she has someone that can put it together for her)-
DVD Drive: PIONEER DVR-112, from here, $32.90 (from ‘lakewoodlawnman’ in an earlier post) http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=AA36700&RSKU=AA36700
Enclosure (recommended in the same post, with instructions for assembly): ANYWARE ME-340U2F USB2.0 & FIREWIRE FOR 3.5" & 5.25" DEVICES EXTERNAL ALUMINUM ENCLOSURE $30.90

Does this look okay? Do you think there will be any problems with it and the iMac 17-inch 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo?
If you have any other suggestions, I’d appreciate it (these forums rock, btw!)
Thanks!

I own 2 Pioneer 110-Ds that work with iDVD and over at ripdifferent.com there are several people that use the drive and enclosure I suggested and it works with idvd for them.
One of the 110s is in the same enclosure.

HT204621 Is this related to the Reconnecting phenomenon which I encounter regularly during sessions when I am mirroring my Macbook Air display on my iMac? This started happening after Yosemite OS u/g. Both using the same bluetooth keyboard/magic mouse per

I'm suffering from a reconnection problem which impacts my ability to use mirroring of my Macbook Air display on my iMac display. Both are using Yosemite OS and sharing the same bluetooth peripherals via the iMac. This did not happen much before Yosemite but I get a Reconnecting display about once every 15-20 minutes now when I am accessing my macbook in a session. Connection to the Macbook Air via a Thunderbolt cable also seems a little flaky, may or may not connect. Often improved by opening (waking) up the macbook if no response. Occasionally I get a Failed to Authenticate Macbook Air error which appears to be a hard error, typically after not having been using the laptop for sometime, e.g. overnight!

Yes but there's no point doing it here. As the Terms of Use make quite clear this is a User to User forum. It's Users like you talking to other Users. It's not a channel to communicate with Apple.

Need Help Connecting Logitech Z560 to New Intel Imac

I am a newly converted PC user. Like most of us, I am amazed by my new Imac.
I have a Logitech 4.1 z560 speaker setup that I would try to use with the Imac, if possible. My problem is that the connection from the speaker "control center" is actually two 3.5" mini phono jacks. Since there is only one audio output on the back of the Imac, I cannot figure out how to make this work. I can plug in just one of the connections, but I only get stereo sound coming from the front two speakers. Here is a link to the manual for the Logitech speakers:
http://logitech-viva.navisite.net/web/ftp/pub/pdf/speakers/z560.pdf
The connections I am referring to are numbered "4" in the diagram - described as "Audio input cable to PC - green & black plugs". I would appreciate any help. Thanks!

Hi wextasy: I have a set of Logitech speakers similar to those, and they work quite well. The manual says, with a 2 Channel Sound system (iMac), you plug the Green plug into the output jack, and enable "M3D" to get best sound. It does a pretty good job of simulating 4 channel sound. The other "black plug" is unused in this situation.
Happy listening
