I would like to watch videos on my tv from my mac, but no hdmi connection on my mac. Is there a usb/hdmi cable available to my mac?
I would like to connect my MacBook Pro to my tv to watch videos, but I only have a usb connection on the laptop. Is there an adapter to go from usb to hdmi for the mac?
You will need a cable such as this for video:
http://www.amazon.com/Mini-DisplayPort-HDMI-Adapter-Cable/dp/B003OC6LWM
This will be attached to the minidisplay port.
For audio, you will need a cable such as this:
http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Audio-Cable-Splitter-1-Mini/dp/B00004Z5CP
This will be attached to the audio output port.
Ciao.

I have a late 2008 MacBook I cant get to send sound to my TV when I try to watch movies. I have bought the HDMI cable and audio connectors but still no sound. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Maryan,
Open System Preferences > Displays > select the window for you external monitor > click on the Arrangement tab and check the box next to Mirror Displays. It may be slightly different in Lion, but the idea is the same. -
Windows 7 64 bit
I desperately would like to update Firefox to version 10 from version 9 but each time I try, I am stuck with FF10 checking addons for compatability and the Welcome page opening every time I start the browser. I continue to have to revert to version 9 to resolve this issue.Sorry to be a while getting back! Tried all of that with no sucess so this AM, bit the bullet and deleted the FF folder from programs and downloaded and installed FF 10.01. Still was plagued with the same problem. Went into the appdata folder and there were two sessionstore.js files. Deleted them both, restarted the browser and no compatibility check for add-ons was done at start up and the extra tab for Welcome to FF was no longer opening Everything seems to be working as it should and I did not loose any of my settings.. Thank you for trying to help and I hope my solution helps anyone else who might experience this in the future. Here's hoping the next update goes smoother!

I would like to be able to watch my rental movie/tv shows from Itunes on my tv... I understand that I cannot put it on a USB stick, but is there any other option available? I've tried USB to USB cable and am having no luck.
If you have a modern Mac with a mini-display or Thunderbolt port you should be able to obtain a converter from there to HDMI (e.g. this one) so that you can plug it through to your TV to mirror what's on your screen. Note that this output does not carry audio (at least on some Macs) so you will need to connect that separately from the headphone output (3.5mm stereo jack to whatever your TV or hifi uses).

I would like to deauthorize a computer, but my account won't let me view what computers are authorized. I'm on windows vista. Is there a way to do this. I'm afraid to deauthroize and then reauthorize, because I'm not sure how it will affect not only my computer, but my iphone and new ipad 2
There is no list. Deauthorizing and reauthorizing, will not acomplish anything, nor will it have any effect on your computer or your devices.
If you have reached the limit of 5, then you can deauthorize all and the authorize the active computers. -
I have a string of text sms and iMessages that I would like to save and then delete them from my phone, but gain access to them later if I need them. I prefer to have the string with the date/time stamp vs copying and pasting into a doc or text file. Is this possible?
Not unless you buy an app that accesses data from an iTunes backup. Check in the app store.

I live in Chile and would like to watch movies from my MacBook to my JVC HD Television.. What cables do I need to purchase to do this?
You'll need a Mini-DVI adapter for the MacBook 4,1 and the iMac 8,1 and a cable from that to your TV. Here's the various types of Mini-DVI adapters on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min i-dvi&x=9&y=13
(Composite is the red, white and yellow RCA plugs on your TV or red, white and S-Video plugs.)
You'll also need audio cables to the TV using a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs or a 3.5mm stereo input plug for audio with the Composite. You attach it from the headphone jack of your MacBook to the appropriate audio input plugs on your TV.
If you connect the MacBook using a Mini-DVI to HDMI adapter you will probably need to use external speakers or a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo system for audio if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs or a 3.5mm stereo input plug for audio with the HDMI plug. The Mini-DVI to HDMI doesn't carry audio and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI. -
I have some dvds that I would like to watch on my IPad can they be uploaded into ITunes and then viewed on my IPad?
Some commercial DVDs have the ability to purchase straight off of them through the iTunes store. But you must purchase the boxed set for those DVDs to obtain the registration code for purchase. They provide a link straight from the DVD. But otherwise, as Niel says you are basically stuck legally with only being able to make iTunes capable files from your own home made videos. Terms of use do not allow discussing ripping DVDs, so we can't say how its done even if we know how.

I made a movie with iMovie and cannot get the audio when I burn into dvd. I would like to transfer video to a dvd to be played in any computer and TV
Go to the Map mode in your iDVD project and make sure the blue bin at the left is empty. That's where you drag slideshows to if you want the DVD to open immediately to that slideshow and bypass the menu.
Click to view full size
If there is an item in there drag it out.

I have a dsl internet conection with a download speed of .66 mbps. I would like to watch netflix with a wireless conection to apple tv. What is the required internet speed?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Netflix recommend a minimum connection speed of 0.5 Mbps, however at that speed many of the other features of the Apple TV will be painfully slow. -
I would like to watch our new puppy from work
I would like to watch our new puppy from work (webcam or App). Anybody have the best way to do this?
What is your budget and what equipment do you already own?
There is an app in the app store which lets you use your iPhone or ipod touch as a camera, and your Mac as a remote web viewing device. The App is free, but obviously has constraints. First, you occupy your ipod (or phone) for as long as you are using it, and you had best be plugged into power too.
The Apple Online store has a product called iBaby ($200.00) which is a baby monitor, with remote control panning and other controls.
I saw at a "Brick and Mortar" Apple store another type of baby monitor that they sell, which I will be examining more closely myself, as I am in the market for something like this.
Also, you can look at less expensive dedicated web cams by Logitech and Cisco.
Bottom line is that there are numerous options, but qualifying your question with the phrase "What is the Best way" is awfully open-ended.
Are you looking for the most cost effective?
Do you need sound?
Is money no object (The very best way)?
What kind of bandwidth will you have at both ends?
What equipment do you now have, and want to dedicate to either side? (obviously you have an MBA) anything else?
Will you be needing a wireless camera/device, or will you be hooking up to Ethernet on the source end?
Do you need panning or other remote functions? -
I would like to know if my mom can share a tv series that she downloaded on her IPAD with her apple id with my wife. My wife would like to watch the tv series on her ipad that has a different apple id. Is it possible to share something downloaded from one apple id with another apple id?

I am shooting aerial video with a GoPro H3+ at 1080p 30fps and would like to edit videos and give them to my clients to use in as much media as possible for their advertising and marketing needs. I would like to give it to them at the highest quality allowed. What form should I save it in 'Publish and Share'? I have Premier Elements 12.
KM
Can we assume that your 1080p30 is an AVCHD.mp4 file or other?
You manually or the project automatically should set the project preset to
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR 1080p30 @29.97
(If your frame rate is really 30 instead of 29.97, then go with DSLR 1080p30 instead of DLSR 1080p30 @29.97)
See the following link for setting the project preset manually
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/04/pe11-accuracy-of-automatic-project.html
For your export
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30
Please let us know if you have further questions on this or need clarification on anything written.
Thank you.

My aunt would like to watch TV on her iPad mini. Is this possible for free. If not free, how much?
No, sadly, my uncle passed away. They were used to sitting down and watching TV every night together. She said she just doesn't want to sit down and watch TV by herself. But she listens to 60 Minutes on the radio and would like to see some of the images.
Thank you!
