I have want to connect my laptop to a projector but it dosnt work, how do I do it?
Hi! In order to connect a macbook pro to a projector you will need to purchase this cable and attack it to the cable from the projector. This way you have a connector that can be plugged into your computer:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
If you already own this cable and are having problems mirroring the display from your computer on the projector screen, go to system preferences>displays and then hit arrangement tab (note: this will only appear if the projector or external monitor is attached) and then hit the checkbox that says mirror display.
If you are having other problems, please elaborate so that I can provide a better answer.

I want to connect to a bluetooth enabled device but don't know how
I don't know how to connect to my bluetooth enabled device. Please help.
Hi,
Your machine does NOT have Bluetooth therefore you can't connect to Bluetooth devices.
http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02882598
If you wish, a cheap option is to buy a dongle called USB-Bluetooth such as:

(Much cheaper elsewhere)

HT201471 I have an ipad 4th generation and my screen cracked but it still works how can I fix this
Hep please
The standard 1-year Apple Care warranty only covers defects in materials and workmanship, not damage due to accidents.
Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)
iPad model
Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
iPad mini
$219
iPad 3rd, 4th generation
$299
iPad 2, iPad
$249
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
Make a Genius Bar Reservation
http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.

Difficulty using a projector. I have a MBP 17" and am running 10.6.8. Often I need to make a Powerpoint or other presentation at a client and I want to connect my computer to their projector. Either it won't display on the projector at all. Once it displayed but the presentation mode was on the big screen and the presentation I wanted to show was on my MBP screen. I have the adapter( white ones) to attached to the projector cables. I am so frsutrated...it looks so silly not to have a computer work during a presentation..
Another problem one the rare occasion that it shows on the screen is that the presentation does show just my desk top. Any ideas?
Thanks !You often have to turn off Mirroring to be able to set the second "screen"s resolution to something reasonable. When you do, the two screens become an "Exceeded Desktop" joined along one edge, and the Arrange pane in displays prefs can allow you to specify what edge. Initially, it will show a vacant extension of the built-in screen's desktop.
The mouse moves freely across that shared edge, and can allow you to drag the presentation window across to the the projector screen and re-size it to fit. -

I want to connect my laptop to tv using Apple tv. i wannt to make something like mirroring.Can i do it?
thnaksWelcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you want to stream the PC onto your Apple TV, you can use AirParrot to do it > http://www.airparrot.com -
i connected my laptop to the tv and it has worked before. this time only the laptop flashes the blue screen and the tv is saying no signal. when i tried to check the dispaly arrangement it says this:The Arrangement tab of Displays preferences is hidden because you only have a single display attached to this computer.
It is not properly connected to the network.
Make sure location is set correctly
DNS should be on auto (settings - general - network)
Try ethernet
Signal strength on device won't account for issues, you would need a network report from istumbler, netstumbler or similar. This will show accurate signal strength along with noise and nearby networks -

When attempting to print in Pages, I keep getting a message that no printer is detected. I have checked all connections and they are solid, this printer has always worked before, and even if I try to add it, I still get that message. I can print from all other applications, just not any Pages documents.
You may just have an outdated printer driver.

I was wondering if there's a way to connect to my work server from my home iMac i7. I can't seem to get Share Screen to work. I have tried connecting to server using the vnc but doesn't work.
The easiest way would be to use Back to My Mac, but that will only work if the server is a Mac running OS X 10.7 or later and you have the cooperation of the network administrator.

I updated to 7.0 and now my ipod wont play in my car stero. I have reset, bought an itunes song and reset again but nothing is working. Pandora wont play. I can hear it very slightly in my speakers if I turn up the speakers but it is so faint. It plays thru its own speakers and my radio plays thru my speakers in my car so my its not my speakers.Help! Thank you!
Hi Novagurl2369!
I have an article for you that can provide some helpful troubleshooting steps to address your issue:
No sound through stereo headset1
Inspect the headset jack for debris and clean if necessary.
Connect the headset and make sure the connector is pushed in all the way.
Check the volume setting. Adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down button on the left side of the iPhone.
If you are trying to listen to music and cannot hear any audio, make sure that the music on iPhone is not paused. Try squeezing the headset microphone to resume playback. Additionally, from the Home screen you can choose iPod > Now Playing, then tap Play.
Make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed on the computer that you are syncing the iPhone with (songs purchased from the iTunes Store using earlier versions of iTunes won't play).
Try another Apple headset (some third-party headsets require an adapter to be used with original iPhone).
Try a different song or video.
Check to see if the iPhone alert sounds or other iPhone sound effects exhibit the same audio issues.
Disconnect the headset from the iPhone and see if sound comes from the built-in speaker.
