I tried to connect via to dvi to hdmi and it did not wrk

This question was solved.

Hi lastace,
If your vga port is blue, that means it's a D-Sub connection.
With D-Sub, you can purchase a connector that can convert D-Sub output to DVI but unfortunately, not HDMI.
So in your case, you can connect your monitor via D-Sub (VGA) or DVI but not HDMI unless you have a HDMI port on your
laptop. Sorry I couldn't give you good news.
Hope this helps!

  • HT201343 I tried setting sound to apple tv before mirroring and it did not work. Any other suggestions?

    I tried the solution of selecting sound in System Preferences before turning on mirroring and it did not work. Any other settings I need to worry about?

    You can only update an app from the AppleID that was used to purchase it.

  • I had recently tried to change the background of the lockscreen and it did not show the selected image as lockscreen background while charging, but earlier the image iused to keep as lockscreen background used to be always present even while charging???

    is it normal for the iphone to act like this ???

    Firstly I thank you very much ckuan to take out time and answer my question. But I seem to have tried all the three things but in my case the phone doesn't show background of lock screen in two out of three instances that you have pointed out. First being it shown to me while charging if I press the home key, but if I press home key once during charging it still appears dark and battery and I suppose date and time shown.
    Secondly the one at silent mode also doesn't work in my phone.

  • HT4623 I tried to update my ipod touch through itunes and it did not work.

    Now my ipod is in recovery mode and it wont recover after attempting to update to the new update!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                 
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Error trying to connect via jdbc

    I'm trying to connect via jdbc driver from a java application to a remote db. The code is quite simple
    DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());

    ("jdbc:oracle:thin:@dbhost:orcl", "user", "password");
    in my CLASSPATH I have the ojdbc14.jar file

    Please be aware of the following facts:
    1) sqlplus from the same machine has no problem connecting to the db
    2) there is no firewall or router between the client and the server
    3) As host name I've tried the fqdn (resolved by the DNS), a name I've set up in /etc/hosts, the mere IP address
    4) Checking with tcpdump, I've verified that NO network packet actually leaves the client, so the problem completely lies there.
    Has anyone some good idea why this happens?

    Make sure you are providing correct hostname and listener port number

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    I just bought my wife a iMac. Now her iMac and my Macbook Air are always trying to connect via bluethooth. I use a bluetooth mouse and she has the bluethooth keyboard and trackpad, so turning bluetooth off is not the best answer.

    What's the problem?  In theory a BT device can only pair with one machine at a time.
