How do you get the video out to TV to work on the iPhone 3GS

I cannot get the video out to TV to work on my iPhone 3GS with iOS 5.1.1.
I am using the $40.00 apple composite AV cables and nothing seems to work. With the cables connected to tv input nothing shows up in general settings for video out. Or anywhere else for that matter. I have tried many different TV's, sometimes I get audio but never never ever video . Does anyone else have this problem or better yet the answer?

Thanks for responding to my question about not being able to get the video out to work on my iphone 3GS. In answer to your question i couldnt get any video to work at all. But, i do know what was wrong now. The whole problem was the brand new $40.00 set of apple composite AV cables i just bought was no good. This afternoon i took a trip to the nearest apple retail outlet (30 miles away) with phone and cables in hand. And after doing a little head scratching of their own they decided to try another set of cables, and low and behold the darn thing worked like a charm.I was very impressed by the service at the apple store even though i didnt buy either product from them. I wonder if there is a bad batch of cables floating around out there because it looks like other people out there are having the same problem, which is why i didnt really suspect the cables. Thanks again for responding. Micdude001

How can i get HD video out from the lumia 900. ? Is there some kind of gable. ? N8 has HD cable port..so where is lumia`s port. ?

Download Zune and start it, when started connect your Lumia 900 and you can now transfer mediafiles from the Lumia to your PC through a USB connection. For Mac use the Mac connector.

How can you get 2 videos to play simutenously together?

How can you get 2 videos to play simutenously together so both are playing side by side on screen at the same time?

Welcome to the forum.
As Steve observes, what you are talking about is called "PiP," or Picture in Picture.
He has given you the basics of creating a "split-screen" PiP, and that should be exactly what you wish to do.
For more detail, plus more ways to do PiP, I strongly recommend his book, Cool Tricks & Hot Tips for Adobe Premiere Elements 11, from Muvipix. He has an entire chapter (Chapter 10) on PiP, and many of its uses, with detailed instructions on the settings to accomplish it. Just that one chapter is worth the price of the book.
Good luck, and happy editing,

How do you get iTunes purchased songs to automatically play one after the other

How do you get iTunes purchased songs to play automatically one after the other without having to hit play for each song ? Also I lost all my pictures on my iPad when I installed iOS 7 upgrade. Any way to get them back? Thanks. Dr Ron.

Hi Dr. Ron,
By your question, I am wondering if you are playing your music from the iTunes app rather than the Music app?
In the Music App, you can go to any of the options at the bottom and click on a song to play and it will then continue to play the songs in that category. You can also select "Shuffle" to shuffle them.
As for your Photos, did you have them backed up anywhere?
Cheers,
GB

TS3999 How do you get info entered into iCal and Contacts on an equipped iPhone to push back to an equipped MacPro? so far it's only a one way street Macpro to phone, and that's not what I was told it would be.

Hi, all.
How do you get information entered into iCal and Contacts on an equipped iPhone to push to an equipped MacPro? So far it's been a one way street Macpro to phone, and that's not what I was told it would be. I've been through all settings on both devices and see no way to do this. Help! If I synch the old fashioned way, what's going to happen?

First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

HT3413 How can I get composite video out of the 13" early/mid 2009 MacBook?

OK, the Mini-DVI - DVI Adapter "works with" the 13-inch, Early and Mid 2009 MacBooks.
But can it combine with a DVI to S-video and composite adapter so I can play video from my MacBook (one of the above) to my TV (composite input)?
It is stated in many places that the Mini-DVI to S-video and composite adapter doesn't "work with" these models, and I've proven that's the case.
But I can't find anywhere that explains why, or says more than "works with," or just tells me how I could get any external video from my MacBook other than VGA which is useless to me as far as I can tell.
Thanks for any help!

How do you get your videos on the phone memory to your computer??

I can't get my videos stored in my phone memory to my computer or sd card. I got a replacement phone, but I'm trying to get the videos off my old phone. I called tech support, but they were no help. Can anyone help me?

You should be able to plug in the phone to your pc via a usb cord and select to use it as a disk (you select this on the phone, not the pc). You can then view the phone's directory just like an external hard drive from Windows explorer. Then find the folder in the phone's directory and copy and paste the folder or the video files in the folder to the hard drive on the pc.

How do you get a cd out of the imac g5 drive if the computer doesn't know it's in there. I've tried shutting it off and holding the mouse button, but nothing works because the computer can't eject what it isn't registering to be there in the first place.

I can't get access to the cd that is probably slid past where it is supposed to go. The computer doesn't note it is in there. This happened once before and I used another cd to tap it into place, and then I could eject the cd. It's a library music cd and nothing I've done to eject it, works. The dvd drive is empty to the computer, even though I've tried to trick it by getting it to burn a cd or dvd. It says insert disc. Hope someone knows how to pop it into place or open the thing up to get access to the drive. That cd is due!

power off your machine. hold down your left mouse button. power on your machine. This should eject the cd.
Eject cd
Here is a web page on twelve ways to eject the cd.

You indicate you are running on a g5, but 10.6 doesn't run on on a G5.
On a PowerPC-based Macintosh (but not an Intel-based Macintosh), you may use Open Firmware to eject a CD or DVD disc when normal methods for ejecting it have not succeeded.
Immediately after the startup sound, press and hold the key combination Command-Option-o-f. Enter commands:
eject cd
mac-boot

TS1702 How do you get UTube Videos to play on the IPad?

Are you using the youtube app?
If so, another reason for stopping and starting can be your internet speed.

How do I get a video signal to an external monitor via the mini-display port on my Mac Book Air?

I can't get a video signal out through my mini-display port on my Mac Book Air (version 1). Thus I can't feed BBC iPlayer to an external monitor. There is some connectivity - the MAC wallpaper is broadcast, the mouse pointer is visible and sound is transferred. Is it likely to be a cable connection problem (though the cable works with a Windows operating laptop)?

First, what you said is contradictory. You say "can't get a video signal", then say"the Mac wallpaper is broadcast, the mouse pointer is visible". "No video signal" means an absolutely black,blank screen. It sounds like you have plenty of signal.
I am supposing what you are seeing is actually a blank desktop, which is to be expected if your settings are such that you are extending the desktop, instead of mirroring it.
Within the preference panes is a setting that allows you to change this. Open System Preferences, click Displays, and then click Arrangement. You will see that you are extending the desktop. Change that setting.

How do I get SD video (4:3 aspect ratio) to fill the entire screen?

Any 4:3 video I stream has black bars on either side of the picture. I have a Samsung HDTV, and I can stream content using its own pc to tv streaming software and 4:3 videos fill the entire screen. Or if I play a DVD with 4:3 aspect ratio that will also automatically fill the screen. With the Apple TV I cannot make it fill the entire screen. Is this something to do with the signal being transmitted over an HDMI cable?
Has anyone else had this problem, and if so how have you resolved it?

I know it is displaying 4:3 video correctly, however I'd prefer if there was some stretching (non-linear) so that it fills the entire screen. Having 2 big black bars on either side gets very annoying. There doesnt seem to be an option to fill the entire screen when streaming from the apple tv. There are options when streaming from Samsung's own software (I don't want to use samsungs pc share manager as the apple tv's user interface is much better).
Are my options restricted because the signal is transmitted through an hdmi cable? Seems to be what other websites might be suggesting.

How do i get my photos out of a backup thats in the cloud onto my IOS 8 I phone 5S

Hi,
I just upgraded to a I phone 5S from an I Phone 5. I backed up the I Phone 5 and returned it to Verizon and received the 5S.
I didn't think to worry about doing a photo migration because the I Phone 5S came with IOS 7. What happened was I Tunes went ahead and put IOS 8 on the 5S which is ok but now the 900 + photos that were in my photo stream on my I Phone 5 did not transfer to my IOS 8 I Phone 5S.
BUT...I still have the original backup of the I Phone 5 with all of the pictures on it in I Cloud and a copy of it on my Computer.
Is there a way to get those photos back out of that backup and on to the I Phone 5S or just get them onto my computer? There is also a back up of my original I Phone 5 on my computer also. I always back up all of my devices in 2 places.
Can I use my daughters I Pad Mini running IOS 7 to put that I Phone 5 backup onto to get the pictures back & then restore her I Pad Mini back to a backup I would have created before doing the above or is there another way of doing it. My daughters I Pad Mini is only 16GB and my I Phone 5S is 32GB.
Any Ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I can't replace a lot of those pictures.
Thanks in advance
Steve

Hi..
Thanks for the reply..
My original I Phone 5 was running IOS 6.12
My I phone 5S currently runs IOS 8..When I upgraded it, it had IOS 7 on it which made the I Photo app compatible with everything below IOS 8...( which the photo app is not compatible with ) so I just connected the I Phone 5S to my computer and thinking the new phone had IOS 7 on it that these was nothing to worry about..I thought all 900 + pictures in the photo stream would transfer but somewhere in the process, I Tunes decides to just go and install IOS 8 which requires that you run a " Photo Migration App" to transfer photos from IOS 7 & below. The problem was is that I didn't want IOS 8 on my new 5S so I thought I wouldn't have to do that part..
Anyway the phone emerged with IOS 8 on it and the only photos that remained were the ones that were actually on the phone..The 900 + I had in the stream didn't transfer because the Photos that works on IOS 7 and below isn't compatible with IOS 8..I guess you have to use the photo migration app that comes with IOS 8 & I phone 6..But I didn't ask to upgrade to IOS 8...It just did it on it's own!
I still have the I Phone 5 Back up that I did just before giving it back to Verizon but if I try to restore the I Phone 5S running IOS 8 those photos in the stream will not go back on the phone because IOS 8 isn't compatible with the I Photos" that ran on IOS 7 and below..
So I have an I Pad mini that runs IOS 7..should I try and erase it...and put that I Phone 5 backup on it and pray the photos that were in the stream come back on it so I can transfer them back to my computer...then erase the I pad mini again and restore it using it's original backup that I have on the computer and the in the cloud?
I know this sounds confusing but I'm at a loss as to what to do..This is what I found ...http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201386
but it doesn't help me..
