How do I connect model a1355 to 2011 imac?

Install window says components are incompatible. Any help?

Are you trying to install the old airport utility from the CD that came with the TC.. don't .. you don't need it. You already have the files installed.
Are you trying to install a new v6 utility into snow leopard? You cannot.. you must use v5 utility.
If you tell us what it is you are installing then we can help.
More than likely you should not be installing anything..
You connect a Time Capsule to the iMac by plugging it in using ethernet and then setting it up using the airport utility.
If you don't know where airport utility lives.... just type airport utility in finder.

  • How do I connect my MacBook Air 2011 to a projector?

    How do I connect my MacBook Air 2011 to a projector?

    It depends on the input connection for the projector, but since many are rduced resolution, VGA seems to be the prevalent common connection.
    It's just a matter of buying the adapter that adapts VGA to the Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt port on your Air. If it is a DVI or HDMI connection input on your projector, the online Apple Store carries that as well.
    This adapter and sufficient length VGA cable is all you need for VGA.
    Here's the DVI adapter.
    For some reason, I am unable to bring up the Moshi HDMI adapter on Apple's site.

  • Cannot get my Samsung SyncMaster S27B370 to connect to my Mid 2011 iMac 27

    Cannot get my Samsung SyncMaster S27B370 to connect to my Mid 2011 iMac 27 inch with HDMI to thunderbolt port adapter but works like a charm in Windows 7 when I bootcamp over to it. Any ideas? The cable is working properly as shown by the fact that Windows 7 uses both monitors perfectly. I am using Mac OS X Mountain Lion and have already done the option + cmd + p + r boot reset to no avail. It does not find the second monitor at all as in it doesn't even show up in the display preference pane.

    Arguably, they're both right.
    Changing your router changes everything, so your best course of action is to research the respective printer's documentation and determine how to reset them to factory default condition. Then, add them again using System Preferences > Print & Scan.
    For that, I recommend you first "reset the printing system" according to these instructions: Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system. Its instructions for Lion are identical to those for Mountain Lion.
    As the article states, it will remove all your existing printers, leaving the Mac's printing system in a similar "factory default" condition ready for you to create a new print queue for each printer, which you should probably do.
    Apple's printing support documents contain a great deal of redundancy, but this one may be a good place to start: OS X Mountain Lion: Set up a printer to print wirelessly

    I was wondering how you would connect the latest Xbox360 (not Xbox One) to a Mid 2011, 21'5 IMac..

    Sorry, as far as I know the only iMacs this would work with are the 2009 & 2010 iMacs.

  • How do I restore my 27" mid-2011 iMac EXACTLY the way it was after hard disk replacement?

    Hi all.
    Recently received an email from Apple saying that the 1TB Seagate hard drive in my 27" mid-2011 iMac is apt to fail anytime. Apparently they used some bad hard drives in the mid-2011 27" iMacs which are problematic so they're offering me a free replacement to a brand new hard drive. I'll be sending in my iMac for the replacement sometime in the next few days.
    In preparation for it, I've backed up my entire system using Time Machine into an external harddrive. The backup is up to date & includes all system files. I've also made a Lion install disk on an 8GB USB flash/pen drive using Carbon Copy Cloner.
    My question is: When I get my iMac back after the hard disk replacement, will I be able to restore my iMac to EXACTLY the way it was before the replacement using the Time Machine backup & the Lion install disk that I've prepared? When I mean EXACTLY, I do mean EXACTLY, e.g I don't have to re-install all the programs I have, my settings for the programs I have will stay intact, everything is where it should be etc...i.e EXACTLY the way my iMac is right now. 
    If yes, how do I do it? I've read Pondini's guide: http://pondini.org/TM/14.html
    However it is less than clear on certain points, e.g in my case, which one do I have to use to restore my system to the way it was...the Time Machine backups I have on the external HDD or the Lion install disk that I made using Carbon Copy Cloner? And how do I go about doing the restore?
    I'd appreciate any & all help given. Thanks in advance!

    baltwo: Thanks for your input! I didn't think of wiping the old HDD before sending it in for the replacement..all those sensitive user data! One question: What's a FWHD?
    Already answered. Just note that FW is much faster than USB. See http://help.bombich.com/kb/troubleshooting/how-long-should-the-clone-or-backup-t ake for details.
    I already have CCC installed so I'll probably try it out. Are the steps outline here the one that I should do to restore the CCC clone when I get my Mac with the new HDD back? See: http://help.bombich.com/kb/overview/restoring-data-from-your-backup#full_volume_ restore
    Yes.
    Another question: while I'm booted on the backup/clone, and just after I've wiped the old HDD, how do I reinstall the OS to create a generic user account? Will I have to use a Lion install USB disk?
    No. IIRC (if I remember correctly), you can either use a saved Lion installer (hopefully it exists on your backup/clone) or use the Recovery HD. If you have the USB stick w/Lion installer on it, use that.

  • HT1529 how could i connect a xbox 360 to imac monitor?

    i would like to connect my xbox to my imac monitor to use it as a display.

    In general you would unplug the monitor from the Mac Pro and then directly connect the monitor to the xBox 360 (with the correct adapter cable, depending on which version of the xBox 360 you have). However, if you don't have permission from the owner of the lab to be connecting and disconnecting cables you shouldn't be doing that. Buy a cheap 1080p TV and use your xBox 360 at home.

  • How do I update firmware for mid 2011 iMac running Yosemite?

    I tried the link in the Apple support pages, but it told me I need Lion to install it. I bought the computer used. It came with Mavericks and I updated to Yosemite. I don't have Lion or any way (or desire to) install it.

    There is no update for the mid-2011 iMac firmware that will fix the fans running at high speed.
    Only the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) Apple hard drives had the proprietary firmware designed to properly monitor the hard drive temperature.
    So you have several possible solutions:
    1. If the computer was sold to you with a warranty, rather than "AS IS", my first choice would be to force the seller to restore the computer to the condition it was represented to be in when you purchased it, with an OEM Apple 500GB drive that does not cause the fan problem. If they cannot or will not correct the problem, make them take it back and refund your money. Consumer advocates such as the Better Business Bureau can help you prepare a formal complaint against the seller, and perhaps lead to a successful resolution through arbitration, without hiring an attorney and filing a lawsuit.
    2. If you bought the computer "AS IS", you'll have to attempt to repair the problem yourself:
    A) Locate an exact replacement for the original OEM Apple hard drive with the proper firmware and install it on your own;
    B) Purchase a 'compatibility kit'. OtherWorldComputing www.macsales.com reverse-engineered a solution to the problem and sells a short cable with an external temperature sensor for the hard drive that can be used successfully with non-OEM drives. http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DIDIMACHDD11/
    They also sell the sensor cable with a toolkit that can be used to disassemble and install the cable. http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DIYIMACHDD11/
    C) Try the fan control program mentioned in earlier replies.

  • How do I connect my 13in (early 2011) MBP to my Sony Bravia KDL-26

    Hi Folks,
    I've recently bought a 13in MBP and want to output my HD video to the TV. Is this just as simple as Thunderbolt to HDMI? If not any ideas.
    Cheers
    Mark

    Hi Folks,
    It's easy, there's just a few things you need to know.
    Bought the minidisplay to HDMI cable off ebay for about £6.00. Pluged in both ends OK. Had to disconnect the recorder first. Might have to look at some kind of splitter so I don't have to do this every time.
    Select the HDMI input on the tele.
    At first the TV will only display the basic Mac background picture (stars) You need to 'Mirror' the displays, and sort out the sound.
    Go to 'System Preferences' and select 'Displays'. With the Mac plugged into the TV you get an extra tab (Arrangements) at the top of the box. Select 'Arrangement' and check the 'Mirror Displays' box.
    Next from System Preferences select 'Sound'. Both 'Internal Speakers' and the TV are listed. Select the TV.
    All should be working now.
    HD video without Blueray - result!!
    Cheers

  • How do I connect my HDTV to an iMac when the distance is arround 15 meters between the iMac and the TV (HD)?

    For instance: Can I use an adapter between the Minidisplay cable and a 15 meter long HDMI cable?
    Or could AppleTV be a (wireless) solution to the problem? Can AppleTV only interface sound to an amplifier through the optical interface? Are there adapters between optical and good old phono connectors available?
    I guess I could also use a Mac mini, which has an HDMI port. But since I want an Apple monitor with a Mac Mini and 27" is too big for my work place, I can't seem to find a smaler Apple display than the 27"Thunderbolt or LED Cinema screens. Is that really so? No smaller Apple displays available any more?
    If none of the above solutions are good: I am open to all good suggestions to how I can have a Mac workstation (iMac, Mac Mini, others) that is also connected to my HDTV, 15 meters away from the workstation.

    If indeed you have a Netgear Hub, then that is the wrong piece of network equipment.  If it is a Virgin Netgear router, then that will work.  The connection must use a router.
    Unfortunately, there is no software from HP to help you install this printer (assuming your new iMac has OS 10.8).  So, we will have to do it manually:
    1. Reset the printer.  Pull the power cord out of the back of the printer for 30 seconds.
    2. When the printer turns back on, on your Mac look for a wireless network that begins with 'hp", likely "hpsetup".  Join it.
    3. Print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer.  Note its IP address.
    4. Type that IP address into Safari web browser.
    5. Navigate to the Network or Wireless tab and look for Wireless Setup Wizard.  Run it.
    6. Finally, connect your Mac back to your regular wireless network, go to Apple menu > System Preferences > Print & Scan and add the printer with the '+' sign.

  • How do I Connect a F4580 to an imac using a Virgin Netgear Hub

    I have just tried to connect the printer to a new imac and I am able to print using the USB cable but when I disconnect this I cannot find the printer on my network.   I have read several threads and many mention using the installation CD.   The imac doesn't have a disc drive and the driver I have downloaded comes from Apple Software Updates.  
    I do not understand how to connect the printer to the wifi.   The Mac Airport utility cannot find the printer.   Surely I will somehow need to enter the network name and password but I have not been through a set-up process which requires this and do not understand how to initiate one.
    I have taken hours and achieved nothing so far so I am now very frustrated!!   Help would be much appreciated!!

  • How can I connect an ADC to an iMac G4 with mini-VGA port?

    I have an Apple Studio Display monitor that I want to connect to my iMac G4 that has a mini-VGA port. I have the ADC to DVI adapter, but cannot find any adapters that go from DVI to mini-VGA. Please help!
    I "inherited" these devices for work from a different university. They originally used the extra monitor with a PowerBook G4 that has a DVI port. But I would rather use it with the iMac - is it at all possible???
    Thanks!
    iMac PowerPC G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   1.0 GHz 768MB DDR SDRAM

    Hi,Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Depending on the age of the iMac G4 depends on what outputs are possible:
    700/800MHz - Mini VGA port to VGA port
    1.0/1.25GHz - Mini VGA port to VGA port or Mini VGA to S-Video/Composite.
    I'm not sure if the first revision of 1.0GHz iMac (Early 2003) fell in to the first category or the latter one.
    regardless... these adpators are available at theApple Store online for $19/£15. From there you'd need to find a VGA - DVI convertor and then the DVI to ADC convertor. Googling for such adaptors brings up several results.

  • How to sync new Macbook Pro with 2011 iMAC on Snow Leapord

    Hello,
    This is my first post so hello!
    My small business has an office iMAC and a Macbook Air both running 10.6.8. The two aren't synced in any way other than that the Air can access files from the iMAC's hard drive via the network. I have 2 email accounts on the iMAC's mail and just one of them set up on the Air.
    I've just bought a new 15" Macbook Pro running Lion.
    I'd like to be able to sync some folders (but definitely not all), bookmarks, iTunes and mail accounts between the iMAC and the new Macbook Pro. Ideally I'd like to be able to access the shared/synced folders when I don't have an internet connection
    What's the best method?
    Snow Leapord doesn't have iCloud does it? If not, why the **** not?
    Is it just easiest to set up the email accounts on the new MBP as normal and then use dropbox for the folders I want to share? Can I access the with no internet connection?
    One other question, can i link a gmail account to my Apple mail?
    Thanks for any help.
    Best wishes
    Dave.

    No.  It was a feature that was introduced with the release of 10.7.2.  I do not know why it was not introduced on earlier versions.  Probably the same reasons why some features will be introduced in later versions of OS X that will not be found on older versions.
