How do I connect my Mac Book Pro to a projector I have the adapter but cant get anything on the screen

Go to your "screen settings". then chose "find screen" then you vill find the prosjector.
this will probably fix your problem.
if this dont works can it be something wrong with your adapter.
hope it helps

    I do not know the iWire adapter, but I use an inexpensive ($3) DVI to HDMI adapter from Monoprice, along with a regular HDMI cable:

    Be aware that this will only transfer video. You Macbook Pro cannot combine audio through DVI to HDMI. You will need to listen to the audio through the Mac speakers, or attach speakers or a sound system to the Mac earphone jack, or determine if your TV has the ability to accept external sound from the Mac while showing video through HDMI (few can).

    How can I connect my mac book pro to the HD TV to watch my videos on the TV?

    Depending on what model of Macbook Pro you have, you can either wirelessly mirror your computer's monitor (using AirPlay, so an AppleTV is required.) You can also buy and HDMI cable and special adaptor for your Macbook Pro so you can wire your Macbook Pro to your TV via HDMI cable.

    This is an example of the adapter you might have to buy. The cable/adapter depends on your Macbook Pro model.

  • How do I connect my Mac book pro to Apple TV wireless

    I am not sure how to connect my Mac book pro to the tv with Apple TV wirelessly

    You need to enable home sharing in iTunes on MBP and Apple TV. You will also choose which photos to share within iTunes.
    Setting up Home Sharing for Apple TV (2nd generation and 3rd generation) - Apple Support
    Any movies would need to be imported to iTunes or pointed to it if on external drive.
    Back up your iTunes library by copying it to an external drive - Apple Support
    The movies would also need to be compatible with Apple TV
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High or Main Profile level 4.0 or lower, Baseline profile level 3.0 or lower with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    They would then be accessed by going to the Computers icon on Apple TV.
    Note: Computer needs to be on with iTunes running.

  • How do i connect my mac book pro to a tv?

    Iv just aquired a mac book pro after having windows computers all my life. Im struggling to find a way to connect my mac book to the T.V.
    How do i solve this and what do i need to buy?

    I am assuming your TV has HDMI connector.
    In that case, if your MacBook is the retina-one, you have HDMI connector there too. All you need is HDMI cable to connect teh two.
    If your MacBook has thunderbolt port instead, you need Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and HDMI cable.
    Hope this makes sense.

    Hi
    I am tring to connect my Iphone 4 with my mac book pro wi bluetooth but message comes up with that your mac book is not supporting. So what should I do?

    Unless you are trying to tether your MacBook with your iPhone, nothing else is supported with a bluetooth connection.

  • How do I connect my mac book pro to a second monitor

    I have a macbook pro and want to connect it to a 2nd monitor.  How can I do that?

    If your MB has a female DVI connector built in, and your monitor has a male dvi plug, you connect the monitor and turn it on.
    DVI male connector:
    If the MBP does not have a dvi connector, what it has is called a mini dvi. You need an adapter. This is available from the Apple store.
    If you are not sure what you have, tell us the Model Identifier for your MBP.
    (Apple menu / About This Mac / More Info / Hardware overview includes that info.

  • How do I connect my Mac Book Pro to a Mitsubishi DLP projector?

    How do I connect my MacBook Pro to a Mitubishi DLP Projector?

    Without knowing the model of your MBP and what connectors are on the projector this is only a shot in the dark but I'd guess you will need a min-display port (mac end) to HDMI (projector end) cable.
    See Belkin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Cable (2 m/6.5 ft.)  for one possibility. But you need to confirm the connectors on your equipment before buying.

    How old is your MacBook Pro?
    AirPlay Mirroring is available with MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer) with OS X Mountain Lion or later.
    If it is older than that try using AirParrot.

  • How do I connect my mac book pro to a wireless LCD

    I want to connect my Macbook Pro to a wireless LCD projector. I am not sure how to do it. Do I need to download software? Do I have the hardware I need?

    Wireless capabilities — via the optional wireless module with either the included software (Mac and PC) or an optional Quick Wireless Connection USB key (PC only) for fast, ad hoc wireless connectivity
    The above is from Epson's web-site: http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Product.do?sku=V11H387020&BV_UseBVCookie= yes
    Do you have the optional wireless module?  Have you installed the included software on your Mac?  Have you looked at the instruction booklet or manual that came with the projector?  If you don't have it you can download it from here:  http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&oid= 175824&prodoid=63090166&infoType=Doc

    Hello Victoria,
    It sounds like you are connecting your MacBook Pro with your television, but you are not getting additional options for your external display.
    I found an article with steps to troubleshoot issues with displays.  This article is for internal and external displays, so you can skip any steps referring to the internal display.  I recommend reviewing the section titled "No video or no signal, image distortion, 'snow,' or flickering" in the following article:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays

    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
