How to hook my iPad2 up to my Sony HD tv

How do I hook up my iPad2 to my Sony HD tv?

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
Try this:
Press the button marked "Caps Lock" on the left hand edge of your keyboard.
Right now I can hear myself think!
Ensure the video cables are connected firmly.
Go to Apple menu > System Preferences... > Displays > Display tab.
Try different resolutions and refresh rates until you get a steady picture.

  • How do I install ipad2 driver on my computer

    How do I install ipad2 driver on my computer?

    There is no driver to install.  What you need to have on your computer to set up and maintain your iPad 2 is the most recent version of iTunes, which is a free download from Apple.   From this site, click on iTunes and download it......

  • How to hook up Power Mac G4 to my i.Mac

    Been browsing through discussions and Apple stuff, talked to support techs at Apple Care (with less than desired results), but still need help on how to do this.
    Here's what I want to do: Get step-by-step instructions on how to hook up an "old" (think it was made in 1999) Power Mac G4 to my i.Mac computer.
    a) primarily to serve as back-up for my documents, pictures, music, etc., even programs if that can be done, and;
    b) actually use some of the old programs that are on that old G4 (i.e. Adobe Pagemaker)
    Here's what I have:
    1) a flat-panel i.Mac, 1 GHz PowerPC G4, 256 MB DDR SDRAM, using Panther;
    2) an old Power Mac G4 (the rather large, vertical hard drive) of which I know nothing about the specs....like memory, storage, or system it has, etc......at least until I can get into it. It's been sitting idle for about four years;
    3) a three-foot, 6-pin to 6-pin cable (Belkin) which I am told is what I need to connect the two computers via FireWire jacks.
    So, presuming I have all that is needed to hook these two machines up, how do I proceed. A "1, 2, 3 instruction would be very much appreciated.
    For example, should both computers be turned on "before" inserting the FireWire cable, or......should just the i.Mac be turned on, then insert the cable, then turn on the old Mac?
    Once hooked up, and powered up, it's my understanding I'll see on icon for the old Mac on my i.Mac desktop. To copy files, I'm supposed to just drag and drop to the old Mac icon. Is that right?
    Then to actually use the old Mac, I'm supposed to reboot my i.Mac, then hold down the "t" key just after the reboot "sound," or little circling icon, and I'll be in the old Mac? The screen will show everything on the "old" Mac? Is this right? Sounds simple enough, but.
    If this is right and I'm actually in the old Mac, can I then sort and arrange documents I've dragged and dropped, and can I use programs that are already on that old Mac......like Pagemaker?
    And, how do I get "out" of the old Mac and back into my i.Mac?
    I see through discussions that I can apparently backup my entire i.Mac hard drive by going to the HD finder window and dragging and dropping my user folder icon (the little one that appears at the top and in the center of the Finder window, to the old Mac icon. Does that sound right?
    I surely would appreciate some help on this. What I've got so far is piecemeal tidbits, nonsequential, and often, unclear.
    Thanking anybody and everybody who might be inclined to help me out.

    Thank you A Brody,
    This is all very helpful to a guy like me.
    I guess the first thing I'll have to do is get an ethernet cable. Presumably, the FireWire cable will not be needed now. Correct?
    The same questions still seem to apply. I did print out the "Connecting two computers using Ethernet" that you forwarded to me.
    1) But, do I power up both computers before installing Ethernet cable?
    2) After following instructions on the"Connecting two computers....." will an icon appear for the old Power Mac?
    3) After hooking up the Ethernet cable, do I have to re-boot, use the "T" key, to get into the old Power Mac?
    4) After fiddling around on the old Power Mac, how do I get out of there and back onto my i.Mac?
    5) Or, because it would be hooked up via Ethernet, could I simply go back and forth between the two computers?
    By the way, after checking out your info on how to identify my old Power Mac, this is the info I've been able to glean, I think:
    The old Power Mac is:
    • A Power Mac G4 (PCI Graphics)........and therefore, it says, not able to serve as a target computer backup with my i.Mac
    • Apparently made in 1999
    • System, apparently, is OS 8.6 (my i.Mac is OS X 10.3.9...Panther)
    • Model number either M7631 or M7826 (can't find it on the computer)
    • Memory: PC 100 SDRAM, up to 1 GB (don't know how much it has now)
    • I have no idea how much storage is available (i.e. my i.Mac is 74.5 GB (I think)
    Thanking you again

  • Am considering buying a Time Capsule.  But all specs I read about it (re: printing) is how to hook up a printer via USB connection.  Need to confirm...that a wireless printer will work with the router feature of the Time Capsule.  I assume yes...?

    Am considering buying a Time Capsule.  But all specs I read about it (re: printing) is how to hook up a printer via USB connection.  Need to confirm...that a wireless printer will work with the router feature of the Time Capsule.  I assume yes...?

    A wireless printer connects to the network just like your computer, or iPhone/iPad, etc. connects using wireless.
    The printer must be set up intially to scan to "find" available wireless networks, then your specific wireless network needs to be selected. Then the password for the network needs to be entered.
    Once the printer is configured to join the network, it is always connected to the network. No further configuration is required.

  • How to update my ipad2 to os7

    how to update my ipad2 to os7

    If you are at iOS 4.3.3 as your info above states, you cannot perform an OTA (over the air) update since that feature was introduced with iOS 5 (which you do not have on your device).
    As Rudegar above mentioned, connect the iPad to your PC running the newest version of iTunes and update it that way. You update path is direct to iOS 7.0.3 (the newest as of now). You cannot update to anything but the newest version.
    iTunes download:

  • How di I connect ipad2 to Epson stylus nx330

    How di I connect ipad2 to my Epson stylus nx330

    The Epson NX330 is not an AirPrint printer.
    To print directly from an iPad you will need an AirPrint compatible printer or another device to act as a print server. That can be a Mac computer running Printopia ($19.95 with free trial) or AirPrintActivator (free).
    You can also buy this standalone print server:

  • How to hook video cameras to macbook air 11"

    I was wondering how to hook a hd video and sd camera to my macbook air 11".  I would like to use it for web cam, and high qualiy live feed to hdtv.

    Are you referring to mirroring or you just unable to set up homesharing.
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

  • HT1349 Hello,I want to ask you,how long may the ipad2 charge at the first time?Thank you for your answer.

    Hello,I want to ask you that how long may the ipad2 charge at the first time? Thank you

    The quickest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes.

  • How do I disable iPad2-Backup?

    How do I disable iPad2-Backup?
    Especially when having stored lot's of appss/music the automatic backup is most annoying.
    How can it be disabled?

    You can't disable it, but you can stop it. Just click on the little x there in the iTunes status window and the sync will move on to the next step in the process.

    Hello jodifromahwatukee,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    From what I understand, it sounds like Safari is not loading a single page or multiple webpages correctly and it is trying to reload the content. In this situation, there are a few different steps that I would recommend. 
    First, I would recommend clearing your history and website data as described in the attached article. 
    Safari web settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Nest, after the data has been cleared, I would recommend closing Safari completely as described in the next attached article. 
    Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
    After Safari has been closed, reset your iPhone. After the reset, open Safari fresh and use it as you normally would. If the issue continues, please let me know. 
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Have a great day,
    Joe
