How to set up tv as display

I recently purchased a mini dvi to s-video/RCA cable and hooked up my macbook to my sharp lcd tv using a RCA video cable. At first I had nothing but static but after messing around with the display settings i got the tv to display the right half of my desktop on the left hand of the screen and left of my desktop on the right of the tv and the whole picture is scrolling up repeating itself does anyone know how to fix this.

I'd hate to have you buy another adaptor, but does the TV by any chance have a VGA or DVI inputs? I do this hookup all the time for customers and every time I'm forced to use S-Video or Composite I run into trouble. If the TV has VGA (like a regular computer monitor), you shouldn't have any problem. I strongly suggest this option if at all possible, as the maximum resolution from what you have is around 640x480-- not exactly what you're used to seeing on that TV.
If VGA is possible, you can find the adaptor you need here from Apple.

  • How to set a view in display mode??

    Hi,

    This view is of table type and associated with value node .
    I am able to display contents of table on UI but they are in editable mode.
    I need them in display mode .
    How to achieve this functionlaity??
    Any suggestions will be helpful.
    thanks

    Hi Kanika,
    There are 2 ways:
    In the configuration of your view you can set the fields as display mode.
    In the method get_i* of your atributtes you can disable the field too.
    I think the better solution is using the configuration.
    Best regards,

  • How to set full-screen page displaying automatically  on portal.

    one viewset included two views (named <b>topView</b> and <b>detailView)</b>
    putting a <i>table control</i> in the <b>detailView,boz</b> of many columns of the <i>table</i>  exceed the width of portal screen,which result in the  <b>topView</b> is the same width to the <b>detailView</b>.both of the two views exceed out of the full-screen width.but i don't wanna move the <b>topView</b> when i drag <i>scroll horizontal bar control</i>. so i added a <b>ScrollContainer</b> into the <b>detailView,and</b> put the <i>talbe</i> control into it.
    the confusoning is :i don't know how to set the the <u>width</u> of the  <b>ScrollContainer</b>  cotrol , to keep it  full-page displaying any time on portal .
       u know the IE'Screen resolution setting maybe different ,e,g,:1024786px  and 800600px.

    HI,
    Give the width in % instead of mentioning in pixels.
    ie. for full width, give 100%.
    Make sure the layout is GridLayout.

  • How to set one layout to display only?

    Hello, Expers,
    I want to display only one layout. The scenario is: when the user input some data in a layout and click on one 'input finish' function button which means that the user has finished input data in that layout, then the system will set that layout to display only. I don't want to use the variable with comparion column because that will also cause all the layout to display only. What I want to do is just set only one layout to display only. Anyone know how to do?

  • How to set default settings to display record count in multi record block

    Hi All
    Whenever I query my multi record block, I get 1/? as record count at the console in standard Oracle Applications. Is there any setting so that it displays 1/50 (in case total record queried is 50). I don't want to set query all property of block as I don't have any control in standard Apps forms.
    Thanks in advance

    Check out the next_navigation_item option for the get_item_property procedure. If you use this you can do the process without having to navigate from one item to the next.
    You can do something like this (untested) to move and resize the items (other than the first in the block):
    PROCEDURE move_and_resize(p_item IN ITEM, p_width IN PLS_INTEGER) IS
      prev_item ITEM := Get_Item_Property(p_item, PREVIOUS_NAVIGATION_ITEM);
    BEGIN
      Set_Item_Property(p_item, WIDTH, Get_Item_Property(p_item, WIDTH) + p_width);
      Set_Item_Property(p_item, X_POS, Get_Item_Property(prev_item, WIDTH) +
                                       Get_Item_Property(prev_item, X_POS));
    END move_and_resize;
    move_and_resize(myitem, -30);

    but answer for your question is form is nothing to do with the pdf generation. you can call the report from the as usual.

  • How to set a JScrollPane always display the last line?

    I have put a JTextArea in a JScrollPane.
    Whenever I append a new line of sentence to the JTextArea, the JScrollPane only shorten the vertical scroll bar.
    Is there any command that can scroll down to the last line whenever I append a new sentence to the JTextArea?

    I have tried to add the line you shown, but it can just show the second last line. It cannot scroll down to the last line.
    e.g. I have these message:
    AAA
    BBB
    CCC
    If the message board can only show 3 lines and I enter one more line "DDD", then the last line will be shown is CCC. I need to scroll down a bit more myself to see DDD. If I scroll to the top and enter another line"EEE", it will scroll down to show "DDD" but not "EEE".

  • How to set up my display to be the main view HELP

    How to set up my external display automatically work as the main display when plugged into my MacBook Pro.

  • How to get Hongkong Map to display 繁體 when cellpho...

    How to set Hongkong Map to display 繁體 but keeping cellphone lanaguage in English?
    I want to keep all interfaces in English, only local maps of China, Taiwan, Hong Kong & Macau to have street names in Chinese language (either 繁體 or 简体). The PinYin is an alien language to me.

    Thanks farby. It is a pity there is no option to switch between the languages. Most locals here are bilingual and for some reason prefer to have the menus set in English but the maps. And those pin-yin names of places are not proper English names either.

  • How do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.

    how do i set up a second display for my iMac desktop?  I want to use both displays at the same time.  My iMac is the 24" Late 2006 model.  I recall that there is a cord for plugging in a second monitor, but I want to make sure that i can use both monitors side-by-side at the same time.  thank you.

    If the Display supports DVI, then you will need a > Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
    If the Display only supports VGA, then you wiil need a > Mini DVI to VGA Adapter and a VGA cable.
    Noting that the (digital) DVI is far better than the (analog) VGA connection.

  • Two Apple Displays and Mac Pro - How To Set Up?

    Hello! My boyfriend surprised me yesterday with a second 23" Apple HD Display! Fed Ex delivered it and I had no idea it was coming! Before I take the plunge I need to know how to set it up so it works as with my current Mac Pro and 23" display so that they work together, as one big screen. I have the ATi X1900 graphics card with 512mg of RAM and two DVI ports and assume that will be sufficient to run both displays.
    Is it possible to use them as one large screen? If so, how do I set that up? If I just plug it in and restart, will the two screens work as one or as separate screens?
    Thanks!
    Lisa

    I did the same thing last night, and if you haven't just plugged it in already, it's really as simple as that.
    I get a little video glitch on my main startup screen when I'm booting up, but otherwise it just works smoothly. Plug it in, and go.
