imac intel monitor not working

Hi Robby62,
please do report back.
Also, after you have successfully installed the BootCamp Drivers from the Leopard DVD (which are version 2.0, btw.) you might want to download the 2.1 version update here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/bootcampupdate21 forwindowsvista32.html
The update also has to be installed while in Windows.
Have Fun
Stefan

  • IMac external monitor not working after lion upgrade

    Hi,
    I have had an external monitor hooked up to my 09' imac for over a year now. I upgraded to Lion and ever since then it hasnt worked but one other random time when I moved and hooked everything back up. Im very tech savy, but this just doesnt make sense. Have combed google to find a solution. I have a Samsung 22in moniter and all the blue power button does is blinks at me. I am using a miniDisplay to DVI connection.
    Does anyone have any suggestions other than resetting the ram?

    I guess it's possible you've got some kind of hardware problem.... but not likley given it started with you installed your OS.
    Here's a few things to try:
    1. see if you can borrow another monitor just to be sure your monitor isn't the problem.
    2. in System Prefs, and the Displays pane, click on the Detect Displays, then then the Gather Displays. If you get two diffenet display panes, that would lead me to think it's a monitor problem.
    3. Lastly, disconnect your 2nd display, and restart. Then Shutdown, reconnect it, and see if that helps.
    and of course..
    4. make sure that all of your connections and adaptors are tight.

    Hello
    Try this
    plug a WIERED mouse , start up your imac , hold on mouse buttons for 30-40 second at least by chance cd could be ejected

  • IMac Monitor not working properly

    My iMac 24 monitor has started acting strangely.  I hve what looks like snow or flickering across the whole screen.  I tried rebooting and at the Applw startup screen the scrrne is covered with noise and the Apple lgo is semi duplicated higher on the screen.  It seems to bootup and then the screen realy goes crasies with black blocks in 4 columns on the right side of the screen.
    looks like a monitor problem.  I tried unplugging everyting and startw ith shift key.  no luck, same thing.
    Any suggestions other than take to Apple.  It is a 2008 unit so it is outside of warranty....
    I think I have uptodate backups of most of info using time machine.  I may be missing a bit from Parallels, but should be enough to get back.
    I currently have it unplugged to see if cooling it down helps.  I am guessing graphics card is ...
    It was not overheated when this occurred, I had just started it from sleep mode...

    You're likely correct in that it could be a failed/failing graphics card but you could try a couple of things that might help, if you haven't already. Sounds like you have backup organised - you may need it.
    Are you really running 10.8.2, as per your profile - 10.8.4 is the current version? Applying the combo will bring you up-to-date with the OS: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659
    Try a Safe Boot: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564 - once booted restart as normal from the Apple menu.
    Boot into the Recovery HD and run Disk Utility to see if any repairs are required. Restart holding down Command = r - more info here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • Imac Intel will not boot up - 3 days old, light on, starts to spin...

    I got an Imac Intel 20" from my husband on mother's day and it now will not turn on!! White light comes on, sounds like it is trying to boot and then nothing... blank screen, no beeps - have unplugged and restarted, tried a million key combination from the forums and still nothing... locked up once on "Garage?" software (according to son)... worked for 2 days...
    Very dissapointed and sad... husband looking like the PC is still a better box even after breaking down and getting the Imac - can't help much because this is all new to him...
    Help!

    If you bought your imac with a credit card anywhere in your home state(or within 100 miles of your home in another state), then you can return it within 30 days if you are unsatisfied. That is federal law, and a store cannot do anything to deprive you of those rights--no matter what they say (or what they print on the receipt under your signature). My Apple store tried to tell me they only allow returns for 2 weeks. I told them the were violating federal law and they were required to issue a credit for the amount of the return, and they reluctantly complied.
    I believe credit card companies are now required to print those rules on your bill (mine does and I don't think it would do so voluntarily), so you can check the fine print on your last bill and read them.
    So, if you meet the above requirements, take your imac back . Insist on a refund. Be firm. If the retail person won't do it, tell them you want to speak to a manager. Once they credit your account, walk up to another retail person and tell them you want to buy a 20" imac.
    If the retailer won't credit your account, then call your credit card company, and tell them you tried to return a defective product within the 30 day limit that you bought in your home state, and you would like them to reverse the charges.

  • Server monitor not working (hardware monitor)

    Just finnished installing my brand new maxed out Intel Xserves. And the Server monitor isn't working.
    This thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=643361
    Didn't solve my problem. hwmond is running on the Xserves but each server line just says "Waiting for response". My /System/Library/ServerSetup/SetupExtras file doesn't even HAVE a Disabled key. It has Label, OnDemand, Program, ProgramArguments and ServiceIPC keys, but no Disabled. And the hwmonds is running anyway.
    I have opened server monitor on the xserve itself and tried to open it to itself with no luck. I have configured Lights out management by choosing Server->Configure local Machine and added another IP there with different login, but I can't connect to either IP. Firewalls are all turned off.
    Running /System/Library/ServerSetup/SetupExtras/hwmondSetup just says "already loaded"
    Server Admin works, I can log in and edit services. Workgroup manager also works.
    When i run the hwmond as root on the server, it says "Failed to communicate with the front panel" which could be due to hwmond already running, but I can't turn off the process since launchd (?) launches it again.
    When I choose "Configure local Machine" the password I entered is always blank, but maybe that's by design.
    Since these servers aren't installed yet I have them in my office and their IP's are temporary, so I read this:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106830
    And it says that for this environment I should set the hostname to "localhost" in /etc/hostconfig. Done. Nothing changed.
    I've googled this and searched here but found nothing. I'm running out of options... What should I do?

    I set the server on a desk and do a fresh install off a DVD with the "erase HD" option. Then I install and configure the software I need (Software update, Sophos, power options, etc.) I did not configure LOM at that point, because I wasn't sure how to do it, and I needed to deploy the server. (luckily LOM was easy enough to set up after it was deployed.) Once the server is ready, I connect a FireWire HD to it, which has OS installed on it and boot from that.
    That way my server is just an attached disk, and I use Disk Utility to create an image of it, which I then deploy on other servers.
    I've had an issue with the G5 XServes where such a method required relatively simple modification before the server monitor would work:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301046
    But, I've not had to do that with the Intel XServes.

  • Server monitor not working

    Guys,
    I have server monitor installed on a 10.5.8 client mini to monitor our 9 xserves and it works fine on all the older ones (all G4 or G5 xserves running tiger or panther) but will not detect any of the 4 new Intel Xeon xserves running 10.5 (mixture of .6 and .8). In each case it alternates between reporting "Software is not installed properly on server" and "CANNOTLOAD_BUNDLEERR".
    I'm assuming this is something specific to 10.5 - some sort of SNMP setting or something perhaps? Obviously I've checked the passwords, I'm using root username/password for each one, all the servers are on and available, and like I say, it's working fine on the older ones.
    Anybody had any experience with this and know the answer?
    Further info: 3 of the servers (of which one is 10.5 and not working) are on the local network (local to the monitoring mini), the remaining 3 10.5's are each on other LAN's to which I have a currently working VPN. In each case the 10.5 machine which isn't working is on the same LAN as an older machine that is, so I know that's not the issue.

    The Intel XServes seem to operate differently than the old G5 units when it comes to LOM. Mine has been giving me a bugger of a time getting Server Monitor to work properly, but right now it seems to be functioning..
    Have you gone to Server Monitor on each of the Intel units and set up the "Configure Local Machine" from the Server menu? It should reject you if you enter the IP address of the Ethernet connection to your LAN - you have to use a different IP address. Configure only the information for 'Network 1' with the info for your LAN.
    It may be purely anecdotal, but it seemed to start working for me after I enabled the firewall on the server, leaving all the ports on the LAN open and shutting everything down on the other address groups.

  • External Monitor Not Working after 10.9.3

    I have two Macs which are not working with an external monitor anymore through the thunerbolt port. I have tried different types of connections (HDMI and DVI) and two different external monitors in an attempt to determine the issue. The only common denominator to the issue is the update to 10.9.3 OS X. I have also reset PRAM and changed between mirroring and non mirroring to no avail.
    Mac #1:
    MacBook Pro8,1
    Intel Core i5
    2.4ghz
    Intel HD Graphics 3000 512MG
    External Monitor: Resolution 1920X1080 @60hz
    32 Bit Color (ARGB8888)
    Main Display: Yes
    Mirror: Off
    Online: Yes
    Rotatino: Supported
    Mac#2:
    MacBookAir6,2
    Intel Core i5
    1.3ghz
    Intel HD Graphics 5000
    External Monitor: No information as it's not connected at this time.

    Well low and behold I tried clearing PRAM again and I reset my monitor to factory defaults. Reconnected my monitor and the thing works now. Very strange but I'm Happy that it's working again. *WHEW*

  • IMac External Monitor stopped working

    I have an Intel based iMac and have been running my old 17inch apple monitor as a second display for over a year now. For no apparent reason today the monitor stopped working. The screen just appears black. there is power getting to it as the power light is on and the computer detects the display fine. I can even move objets to that monitor, I just cant see anything. Any helps would be appreciated.
    thanks
    Joe

    Yep, have the same problem using a 3rd party cablesson mdp-hdmi adapter. Everything worked fine until quite recently. I have tried pretty much everything to fix it but nothing seems to work. I'm almost convinced it's an OS problem, as everything works fine when I boot into my windows bootcamp partition.
    Apple, please get this sorted! I'm reluctant to shell out $35 only to find that I have the exact same problem with the official adapter. Though I probably will anyway because I urgently need to get my display working again.

  • Activity Monitor not working correctly / not listing processes

    When I open Activity Monitor, it does not display a list of processes. The CPU usage works in the bottom of the window as does the disk usage. None of the other graphs display any graphing/data.
    I have rebooted, relaunched AM and I selected "all processes" but it still doesn't show processes.
    I used the terminal command "top" and can see processes in the terminal window.
    thanks for any assistance,
    Harold
    imac 2.8 dual core/24"/2gb/os10.5.5

    Thanks for the quick reply. I couldn't find the activity monitor preferences file you specified, in the Preferences directory. Here's what I've done: I rebooted from an older backup image on my external drive that I made using superduper. The activity monitor app worked from this disk image. I copied the AM app into my current drive, where it showed as a copy.
    I rebooted, and attempted to use this copy. It wouldn't let me due to file permissions problems of some sort. I opened the current version of AM and now it works.
    I'm not sure what fixed the problem, but Activity Monitory now seems to be working OK.
    thanks,
    Harold

  • External Monitor Not Working With Macbook Pro

    My computer was working fine with an external monitor, then my computer froze, and I had to hold down the power button. When I turned it back on, my computer would not work with an external monitor. I've tried different cables, so it's not the cable. The monitor is being detected by the computer, but nothing is showen on the external monitor. When connecting the monitor to the computer, the computer's screen goes blue, then turns back to normal.

    I cannot reset the SMC by removing the battery, I do not have the confidence to remove my battery, and do not have the time to send the computer to someone else to do it.
    I also tried updating my OS from 10.7.4 (Might've been 10.7.3) to 10.7.5.
    My computer is a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010), running OS X 10.7.5 Lion.
    I need to get this problem fixed ASAP, any help is appreciated.
    Kind Regards,

    I forgot to mention, I'm connecting the monitor via MiniDisplay -> HDMI. I've also tried USB -> HDMI and USB -> DVI -> HDMI but none of them seem to work.

  • Why does Server Monitor not work with non-Xserves?

    Does anyone know why Server Monitor does not work with non-Xserve computers? We acquired a Power Mac for a server, based on there being no apparent difference except for the obvious. Turns out there are some differences after all.
    Do Power Macs lack some hardware components or is this just a software thing?

    God question, unfortunitly I dont have the answer but I would also like to know why the software only works for X-Serve....Is there any 3rd Party Software that is similar to "Server Monitor"?
    Thanks

  • External monitor not working after ML upgrade

    I have a late 2008 Unibody Macbook and normally use it in clamshell mode with a Samsung 2043NW monitor if I'm in the office. Previously working fine in 10.5.8 through mini display port adapter. Upgraded via fresh install of 10.6.8 to ML, and the monitor flickered on occasionally but otherwise would not work - when it did display it showed the same resolution as the macbook screen i.e. 1280 X 800 instead of 1680 X 1050.
    There's a thread here related to this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2387462?start=15&tstart=0  but this software was not the answer. I can now view the screen, but it is still being sent a resolution of 1280X800, rather than 1680X1050 (i.e. a fuzzy mess). It also will not work in clamshell mode at all, and just goes to sleep when the case is shut.
    Anyone have a solution for this, or have I been 'obsolesced'? Does anyone have a unibody Macbook that DOES work with an external monitor?

    OK, now here's an interesting thing - the macbook has begun to work in clamshell mode. This is REALLY weird. Tried again this morning in the hope of getting back the monitor control icon in the toolbar and it booted straight into clamshell mode with the lid shut.
    When I first had this running 10.5 it would only work in clamshell mode if you pressed the power button and immediately closed the lid before the screen lit up grey. More recently it has been perfectly happy to enter clamshell mode after a period of use normally, just plugging in the monitor and shutting the lid. It would be nice if this behaviour were to start again soon.
