How to connect hdmi

I have a MacBook Pro and a HDMI cable which once did work, but no longer. Did  software change, did my luck run out?  What can I do to make HDMI cable work again?

The cable may be faulty or if you have an adapter, that may be the problem.  I know of no way of resuscitating a bad HDMI cable.  If you can borrow another one that is known to work, you can then determine the status of yours.
Ciao.

    Hello sohagshahin,
    It appears that your HDMI port is not working on the notebook. I will try to assist with this.
    Have you verified that the port indeed does not work by trying other tv's or monitors? (try one of each if possible).
    Have you tried other HDMI cables?

  • How to connect sound or audio to my tv using hdmi adapter. I tried to connect thru sound settings but my tv is not found.

    how to connect sound to my tv set using hdmi adapter. Im using 2009 macbook pro 13". I went to sound settings then output and it shows internal speaker built- in, it wont locate my tv set. pls. help, thanks

    You probably can't because it looks like your MacBook Pro is too old to carry audio over HDMI. You will need to run a separate audio cable from the audio out port on the MacBook Pro to the audio in port on the TV.
    Check your MacBook Pro model year against the list in this Apple tech note:

    How to connect macbook pro to panasonic hd tv with hdmi cable

    Hi m,
    It depends which MPB you have and the inputs on the TV. The following assumes your TV has an HDMI input which will work with a computer.
    This is if your MBP is from April 2010 or newer:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241
    First connect the adapter to the MBP and the HDMI cable from the adapter to the TV, then go to System Preferences > Sound > Output > select HDMI.
    Or if your MBP is older than that and you have a Mini DisplayPort, you can use something like this: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/CBLMDPHDMID/
    If it's older than that, for video you need a DVI or mini DVI to HDMI or whatever input your TV has. For audio, you need a 3.5mm stereo mini plug to RCA or optical (Toslink), depending on what audio input your TV has.

  • How to connect macbook pro with hdmi? any ideas?

    hi,
    as the new macbook, doesn't have a dvi port but a faste thunderbols my good old dvi2hdmi cable is useless.
    any ideas, how to connect the new macbook to my hdmi tv?
    thx for help!

    Retina has a HDMI port.
    Others have a ThunderBolt, which is backward-compatible with Mini DisplayPort. Get a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, and make sure you insert it until essentially ALL of the metal end is inside the jack, and you will be in business.

  • How to connect your hdmi tv to the Thunderbolt display?

    Hello,
    I've just got my Thunderbotl display which is really nice, but i have question and i hope this would be possible.
    How to connect an external display, in my case the HDMI tv to the thunderbolt display?
    The connection would looks something like this:
    Macbookpro (late 2011 15') -> Thunderbolt cable -> Thunderbolt display -> Thunderbolt to hdmi adapter -> HDMI Display
    But currently i cannot get any screen on my hdmi display (it remeans black).
    p.s. runing latest version of OS X
    Thanks

    See secrions 14 and 16.
    If your MacBook Pro does support two external displays you may be able to use your TV with a Thunderbolt display.  While a Mini DisplayPort adapter won't work plugged directly into a Thunderbolt display, it will work if a Thunderbolt drive is connected between the displays.  This reportedly works with Seagate GoFlex drives.  LaCie drives don't work plugged into Thunderbolt displays.

    My macbook pro has no hdmi port.   What adaptor is needed to connect hdmi to macbook pro

    Macbook Pros have mini-Displayport connections, so you need a mini-Displayport to HDMI adaptor.

  • How to connect a Sony Bravia TV to the internet through your Airport network

    Since it took me a lot of time to figure out how to connect my Sony Bravia TV to the internet through my Airport network, I better share how to do it. Hopefully saving others a lot of time.
    My 32EX600 Sony Bravia TV is Ethernet connected to my Mac Mini, which is part of my Airport network, together with another Mac, an Airport Extreme Base Station and an ADSL modem/router. Moreover, the Mac Mini is connected to the TV by HDMI.
    Whatever I tried in the TV’s Wired Network Set-up (Auto, or Manual with manual IP, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and DNS IPs), I couldn’t get it right. Cable Connection and Local Access were mostly OK, Internet Access always Failed.
    The solution lies in the Sharing panel of the System Preferences of the Mac Mini. In the Internet Sharing item of that panel, you should choose to “share your internet connection from WiFi to computers (the TV in this case) using Ethernet“, and NOT (as I had chosen before and seemed so obvious) “share your internet connection from Airport to computers using Ethernet“. After that change, the Bravia Network Set-up, using the Wired and Auto options, flawlessly connected to the internet. No expensive (Sony) WiFi USB dongle needed.

    I have now had a detailed reply from Sony Europe and the way to do this is to:
    1.       Press Home on the TV Setup
    2.       Use the right and left arrow to select Setting.
    3.       Use the up and down to select Network, press Enter.
    4.       Select Network Setup.
    5.       Select Wireless setup.
    6.       Select Scan
    7.       Select your network
    8.       A new screen will appear asking for entering the security key.
    9.       Enter your WPA2 key.
    10.   Select Enter.
    11.   It will take you back to the same screen asking for entering the
    security key.
    12.   Press the right arrow.
    13.   Select Auto.
    14.   Press the right arrow.
    15.   Select Save and connect.
    These instructions are not the same as shown on the TV but they worked fine for me so they may help others with a similar problem.

  • How to connect my Mac book Pro to a TV

    How to connect my MacBook Pro to the TV using HDTV cable

    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.

    This could be an issue with that vintage Tv.
    Svideo is more fitted for video player input.
    Go to http://eshop.macsales.com/ to see what options are available.
    If you send them an email, they will help if you don't see option.
    Prior to sending them mail, select the exact model you have from the
    list of the MacPro's and any other details.
    Is there a reason your still at 10.4.11?
    Also, Apple Tv streams to my Tv's.
    May just have to do a Craigslist search and pick up a worthy Tv with HDMI ports.

  • How to connect my Satellite P300D to the TV?

    So what kinds of cable do I have to buy to connect HDMI? Do I have to download some software? How about the audio?
    Cheers

    Visit electronic store and buy high quality HDMI cable. Talk with your local dealer and pick up info which one they have.
    To connect your laptop to the TV is simply.
    Connect both devices with the HDMI cable, choose HDMI channel on TV and use FN+F5 to switch to TV.
    Everything should be OK.
