Help with choosing the correct adapter

Hi, could anyone help please.
I have a 20inch Cinema display that I would like to connect to an imac at work. Am i correct in thinking that all I need is the mini DVI to DVI adapter. I'm a little confused.
Thanks
John

Click here, find the page for your iMac model, and then hook it up to an ADC or DVI port depending on what the display has.

  • Help With Choosing The Technology

    Hello,
    I need help in choosing the appropriate technology for the application that I'm going to be creating.
    The characteristics of the system that have been decided until now:
    Standalone app built on either Flex/Flash/AIR
    Restricted to using the system on a single computer, hence can be a tightly coupled system
    The server component of the system needs to be closed source and robust, for which im thinking something like a Java backend,etc,etc.
    In a completely new environment, all that i need to be able to do is install just the AIR application and not worry about installing extra stuff for the server support.
    Thanks In Advance for anyone who can help me out with this.

    If you are saying you want the server component to be on the same machine as the Flex app, then your choices are severely limited due to the sandbox, unless of course you are using AIR, then you can just use the SQLite database.
    But if there will be a sevrer component on another machine on the web, you could use BlazeDS, and like I said, its free and very robust.

  • Help with choosing the right specifications for a Macbook Pro Retina?

    Opinions needed....
    So I'm new to Macs, but I know what I want to achieve and I feel this is the right route to choose. I'm looking at delving into the world of music production, using Logic pro 9 and garageband, but I also enjoy watching High definition Movies and televison so I know that the Retina display is definatley the right choice for me. However, I'm unsure on the amount of RAM & Which processer I should choose. I have read a fair bit on forums and online about the new retina macbooks being 'locked' from upgrading, so the 16GB of RAM is an immediate choice for logetivity.
    The choice of processor is when I start to become clouded in my choice. As forementioned, I'm looking at running logic pro, as well as high def movies. There is also a possibilty at looking into photo and video editing, Whether that be in final cut pro or photoshop... But I want to leave my options open.
    I think the choice of 16GB of RAM, 2.6Ghz processor, with a 256GB hard drive ( as i have 1.5TB external space) would be a good choice. Once I've added on applecare that comes out at around £2350, Which is a significant investment, but one that I think will help me immensely for the future. I am interested in other peoples opinions on my possible choice because, as I said before, I'm new to the world of Macs and making the right choice is essential. As a side note, the choice of upgrades also ensures a reasonable resale value, which is a bonus.
    Regards

    Both power adapter I have are different (at the magnet end) from the one in link.
    Earlier adapters have T shaped connectors, which Apple later changed to the L shape, presumably to make them more abuse-proof. Either one is fine and the one you are using will not damage your Mac.
    Retina MBPs and new MBAs use a completely different MagSafe 2 connector which will not fit (without an adapter).

  • Making a website to help with choosing the colour of a bike - please help me :D

    Hello I am trying to make a website where you can take
    conponents of a bike and change their colour
    there are about 17 conponents that I want to be able to
    change the colour of e.g. frame colour and seat colour.
    and I want to have 10 - 20 colours
    the number of combinations would be huge, so to have that
    many pictures, with a link to each is probs not the best solution
    by far.
    I was planning on having a more interaction site, where when
    a colour or conponent is selected, it changes in front of you - any
    ideas how I could do this?
    prehaps a simple solution would be to have a range of
    buttons, that when selected display a different coloured conponent
    - how do I make a button that when pressed reveals say a coloured
    box and doesnt dissapear when the mouse is moved away from the
    button - is this the hit feature? if so how do I make it work!?
    Any help would be fantastic
    Simon

    Simon :
    The best way you can do it, is firs, to prepare several
    colors of the same bike : you achieve this changing the
    Hue/Saturation properties in photoshop, so you are going to create,
    as an example, 7 different colors (the main colors) you have in
    stock.
    Then you create independent Movieclips for each one, this
    won't load too much your memory since you can make independent
    SWF's which are going to be called on pressing the "color button"
    using the "LoadMovie" actionscript property. Remember, when you
    create the button, you just create small squares orange, blue, red,
    yellow, green, etc etc.. so when you click on them, the color they
    show is the color that will call the bike.
    You have a good example here on using LoadMovie, there are
    even more googling around :
    http://www.cristalab.com/tutoriales/152/galeria-de-imagenes-en-flash-con-loadmovie.html
    P.D.: There is another way, to try to apply colors with
    Actionscript, but forget about it, because since the bike pictures
    have shadows and shiny parts, this "filling color" way is not going
    to fit well. I justed wanted to mention this, I wouldn't try this
    way...

  • Help with choosing the right hardware

    Hello,
    I would like to know what hardware sollutions from NI are best suited for my Master's degree project, which is a motorized crane for a video camera (basically a robotic arm with 5 axes). What I need is something to control my 5 motors (DC/stepper) - both in position and velocity and also need some Digital inputs available for different sensors. In my previous project, I have succesfully built a motorized slider for camera (only 3 axes - 2 rcservo for pan/tilt and a DC motor for translation which was controlled in position) and I used Arduino development board to control it, encountering difficulties for controlling my entire system. In this upgraded version of the crane, I thought that NI hardware are more reliable, and I want to find something to match my application requirements. I just need something to control my motors using Labview, as I will make my own drivers for them (also something affordable for a student as the motion control modules are way out my bugdet).
    On the other hand, I would also like to control my system from a smartphone and I was wondering why Labview has implemented applications for Android and Apple, but not Windows Phone? Are there policy issues or just not yet implemented? If not, I would gladly develop an application for WindowsPhone8, as it would help me remotly control my crane.
    Thank you in advance,

    Hello Catalin,
    There are a few options that are available for this application, I'll start with the simplest hardware with the most difficult software and then progress from there.
    The simplest implementation that I can think of would be a high channel count digital I/O device, where you power a custom H-Bridge or similar motor driving circuit. Based on a 6 or 4 pole stepper motor this would translate to 20-30 digital channels. Something as small as a NI USB-6504 (24-ch, 8.5mA) would work with very low performance. This implementation would only have software timed digital output with a significant amount of jitter and variability, as well as the 8.5mA max current drive per channel which would require extremely high input impedance on the drive circuit. 
    The next step up in implementation would be a digital I/O device with Hardware timing such as a NI PCIe-6321 or a NI PCIe-6323. These cards will allow a buffered digital output which will significantly reduce jitter and increase the performance of this control.
    Both of the above methods would require you to program the motion control for the stepper motors, and would also require an external drive for providing the power to the stepper. This could be something as simple as a custom built H-Bridge, a simple stepper motor driver such as this one available from sparkfun.com: Big Easy Driver.
    The next option would be using the motion modules such as a NI 9501 or a system built by following the NI Stepper Motion System Selection Guide. This would be the most complicated hardware, however this would enable you to use the National Instruments SoftMotion Module for programming instead of writing all the code from scratch.
    In regards to the implementation for LabVIEW implementation for Windows Phone, I am unsure of whether this will or will not be implemented. Please feel free to post your ideas on implementation on the NI Idea Exchange, and thanks for the feedback!
    Cheers,

    Thank you for your advise but how can I get very good quality on DVD then.
    as long as your project is <60min, iDVD will create best quality technically possible (=using the highest bit-rate, 9MBit/s) standards allow .
    it is not a prob of the tool, but the standards. your source is 1920x1080, a DVD can contain only 720x480 ..
    if you want 'higher' delivery-quality, consider BluRay (hmmm?) or a MediaPlayer (AppleTV, WD TV, PS3, .. )

  • Please help with choosing the right text component

    Hello,
    In my applet, I need a single-line text component with the following capabilities:
    1: Support for bold font (entire text,not just part of it)
    2: Support for underlined text (entire text,not just part of it)
    3: Support for blinking text
    4: Ability to put caret anywhere within the text field with mouse
    5: Support for field validation
    6: Ability to handle various key events and modify the text and/or move around caret position accordingly.
    Now, I know there are at least 4 different text components: JTextField, JTextArea, JEditorPane, JTextPane. Which one of these is most suitable for the above features? Is it possible to use JTextField to support all of the above?

    Here is a link to the Java Swing tutorial which discusses the text components.
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/text.html
    I think you need to use a JEditorPane or a JTextPane (although I'm not sure any of the components support blinking text). A demo program shows some of the capabilities of these components:

  • When importing a CD, the CD Lookup Results dialogue box came up and I choose the wrong CD title.  Now iTunes is importing a different song list than the one on my CD.  How can I retrieve the CD Lookup Results to choose the correct title?

    When importing a CD, the "CD Lookup Results" dialogue box came up and I choose the wrong CD title.  Now iTunes is wanting to import a different song list than the one on my CD.  I've shut down my computer and opened iTunes from the hard drive Program Files and tried to import the CD again with the same problem.  How can I retrieve the "CD Looup Results" diaglogue box to choose the correct CD title to fit the song list on my original CD?

    You might also be able to do it without importing the songs again I think. Just highlight the tracks, right click them and choose "Get Track Names". This feature only works on CDs that were imported via iTunes.

  • I am sending a single-page poster in Illustrator to a commercial printer. There are several placed graphics and I want to choose the correct file-type to keep my Illustrator file nice and small.

    I am sending a single-page poster in Illustrator to a commercial printer. There are several placed graphics and I want to choose the correct file-type to keep my Illustrator file nice and small.

    Printers like PDFs, but you should consult with the print vendor before you save the file in any particular format.  Each vendor is different and have an established workflow.  They may not accept JPGs.  If the poster prints offset, you will need to supply the appropriate resolution per their request or what they require. If the poster is large format or grand format, then they will or should know what resolution is appropriate.  However, large format inkjet only requires 144-150ppi at 100% final size.  Try to get in the habit of consulting with the print vendor early on so you end up supplying what is needed.

  • Help with updates - The software change returned error code 0x87D00215(-2016411115).

    I have rolled out bunch of updates across few hundred workstation systems.
    Few of the desktops have failed to install SOME of the updates and just can't get my head around as to why?
    Looking at one of the workstations, I can see 5 updates are pending download at 0%.
    Some of these fail after a while and with in Software Centre, I can see 'Help with updates - The software change returned error code 0x87D00215(-2016411115).'. Not exactly sure what this means, but I have tried clearing the cache and
