IBook compatibility with HP Pavilion monitors

Is iBook compatible with HP Pavilion monitors

You may need to clarify your question, since there isn't much detail to go on.
When you say "ibook" do you mean the software and ebooks? Or, do you
refer to the Apple portable computer (iBook, circa 1999 to 2005 G3/G4)?
If you are referring to the portable Apple computer you have, MacBook,
then you may have to check out the Display Adapters and ports, to see
what you have; & try to match the correct adapter to connect hardware.
With a VGA, or other, you'd need to use the correct display adapter so the
MacBook (or older obsolete iBook G3/G4) could communicate with it.
So, with correct terms and identification of the products in question, one
may be able to match a suitable response to some or most of them.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

Mac mini compatibility with 1600x900 Samsung monitor?

I have just purchased a Mac mini Z0FW-2GB (2GHZ 2GB DDR3 RAM/120GB drive) and would like to pair it up with a Samsung 2033SW 20-inch with a resolution of 1600x900
Does anyone know if this monitor / resolution will work natively with Mac mini? Does the necessary connector ship with the Mac mini?
Thanks.

A Mac can automatically configure itself for any resolution on-the-fly based on whatever EDID (display driver data) it receives from the monitor it is connected to. That is, for example, why all Macs, even older ones, are successfully running monitors like the new 2048 x 1152 ones that have recently come into the market. Even though older Macs may pre-date the existence of that new and never previously existing format by several years, they are still able to read the EDID and self-configure their graphics output into any resolution. For this reason, I doubt you will have any trouble with a 1600 x 900 monitor.
And, yes, everything you will need comes with the Mac mini (Mini DVI to DVI Adapter) or the monitor (DVI cable), so you won't need to buy anything extra.

Windows Compatibility With HP w1907 Monitor

Is my HP w1907 monitor compatible with Windows 8? The Copyright on the software disc is 2006-2007. Thanks!

Hi,
Yes it is, you need the right port on your machine to connect to it. It has one VGA port and one DVD-D port.

Compatibility with an Eizo Monitor

Hello.
I just bought a Mac Pro Xeon 3.7Gh.
I am considering buying an Eizo CG277 monitor.
Is there any incompatibility between both in terms of calibration or any other aspect?
Thank you.

The following are published methods. There is a third method I found out about messing around one day. Close your MacBook and use the remote control to wake it. This will start Front Row and that will allow your to run your movie. You only have to have power and the external monitor to do this.

233 MHz G3 Compatibility with Sony SDM-X52 15" LCD Monitor

Trying to interface the subject items, the monitor recognizes the Mac's video output on its input #2, but shows the error "Scan Out of Range," and "Frequency 43.3 Khz/85 Hz." According to the Sony manual this means the horizontal scan frequency is 43.3 KHz, which is within the monitor's range, but the vertical frequency needs to be 56 - 75 Hz. The graphics card in the G3 is the original OEM ATI Rage II+, which Apple states "supports refresh rates up to 85 Hz." However, I haven't the slightest idea how to reduce that rate to between 56-75 Hz.
There is an adapter on the G3's monitor output which allegedly converts to a VGA/SVGA signal, and it does mate with a cable that is compatible with the Sony monitor. This adapter contains slide switches and a rotary dial, and a label on the bottom which identifies the characteristics for its various settings. The G3 was previously interfaced with a CRT monitor, and worked fine. The current settings on the adapter are for 640x480/800x600 resolution with vertical and horizontal sync signals active (these can be turned off but have not tried that).
The adapter has no manufacturer name or logo, only an icon of the Liberty Bell molded into its case.
Would anything I do to this adapter's settings change the vertical scan frequency?
(BTW, the monitor works perfectly on its DVI-D input #1 with my G5.)

Hi, Bill -
The reason I asked if you had another monitor, is that the initial settings (the ones used at the beginning of startup) for the monitor are stored in the Mac's PRAM. After the OS has loaded sufficiently for additional or other settings (if they are different than those in PRAM - not common, but possible, especially when switching from one OS to another) in the appropriate prefs file(s) to be read, those take over.
If you had a different monitor to use, you could use it to get the machine running, then use the Monitors control panel to reset the resolution and frequency to a combo acceptable to the monitor. Then shut down, swap monitors, and give it a try. When the machine is shut down, the applicable settings in the prefs files are transferred to and stored in PRAM, making them the initial governing settings at the next boot.
You might try a reset of PRAM (zapping the PRAM, in old lingo). Doing this should reset the settings in PRAM to the default ones, probably 480x600 @ 60Hz for your model. Later model G3s and G4s default to 600x800 @ 60Hz.
Article #HT1379 - How to Reset PRAM and NVRAM
If that works initially, then immediately press the Shift key and keep it held down until the desktop has loaded. This will prevent the Monitors control panel (along with other control panels and non-critical extensions) from becoming active - and with a bit of luck will prevent the prefs file from being read.
If that works, then go into the Preferences folder in System Folder and trash the Display Preferences and Monitors Preferences files. Empty the Trash. Then try a normal restart.

Monitor compatibility with mac laptop

I am using a Mac Pro laptop with an HP 2511x external monitor. There seems to be some incompatability with these devices. When the Mac awakes from sleep mode, the HP monitor will only respond to turn on perhaps 20% of the time to recognize the computer. 80% of the time it does not find the computer and goes to sleep. The only fix I have right now is to unplug the power cord from the back of the monitor and reinsert to perhaps resetting the monitor at which time it will recognize the computer and everything will work fine until next time.Any thoughts would be appreciated.
This question was solved.

Hello @rotarypilot,
I understand that you are having difficulty with your HP 2511x External Monitor always being recoginised by your MAC Laptop. I am providing you with an HP Support document: Updating a Monitor Driver, which states.
"HP monitors are not supported in a Mac environment. However, newer Macs use graphics with VESA modes and can display to most HP LCD monitors. To do this, connect the monitor to the Mac while the Mac is off, and then turn on the MAC. The monitor should operate at 60Hz. The INF and software for the HP monitor are for Microsoft Windows and cannot be run in a standard MAC OS environment."
Basically, any support you will get with an HP Monitor on a MAC computer will have to come from MAC.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Can I use My Ibook G4 as a Second Monitor For My Mac Mini G4

Hi
I wonderd if theres any way of being able to use my 14'' Ibook G4 as a second monitor for my Mac Mini G4? I already have a Samsung SyncMaster 913n. Is there any way of doing this by firewire using both monitors, if not what cables would I need?
Thanks

There is a application called Synergy which you may find useful. It allows the keyboard, mouse and clipboard to be shared across computers, and even different operating systems. It's not strictly what you have asked for as each computer still runs it's applications (and operating system) separately, meaning you can not drag windows between the screens, but by allowing you to copy and paste between the computers, and seamlessly slide your mouse and keyboard input between them you may get the effect you desire. Oh, and it is free and open-source, so why not give it a whirl?
You will need to connect the machines with a TCP/IP network, which can be done either with an ethernet patch cable, or alternatively as you suggest, using FireWire - these two articles may assist you in setting that up: IP over FireWire in Panther and Tiger.
As a point of note, a commercial program, MaxiVista allows exactly what you are looking for under Microsoft Windows.
Hope that helps.

I want to upgrade to Lightroom 5, but I'm concerned about compatibility with my 2008 intel Core 2 Duo iMac with only 4G of Ram. Will I be able to run Lighroom 5 if I upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion?

I want to upgrade to Lightroom 5, but I'm concerned about compatibility with my 2008 intel Core 2 Duo iMac with only 4G of Ram. Will I be able to run Lightroom 5 okay if I upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion? What will happen to the applications that aren't 64-bit compatible? Also the Eye-one Display 2 colorimeter to calibrate the monitor will not run on Lion, so that will be an expensive upgrade to an i1DisplayPro. Is the upgrade important enough to offset the expense? I have an Epson R2000 printer. Will there be problems with the drivers if I upgrade to Lion? It would be great to hear from other mac users who are also photographers and who print their own photos.

Before upgrading to Lion be sure to read this link:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6271
Adobe lists these requirements:
http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom/tech-specs.html
Looking at http://www.everymac.com/ even the earliest 2008 iMac was fully 64 bit, even though Boot Camp doesn't support 64 bit Windows on that machine.

Compatibility with Windows Mobile 5.0 ?

Does anyone know if Flex apps would work on PocketPCs, ie.
using Windows Mobile 5.0?
I haven't purchased one yet, so I can't test.
At this link, Adobe identifies Flash Player 7 for Pocket PC:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_pocketpc/
This page identifies FlashLite 2.1 which seems to be based on
Flash Player 7
but includes Action Script 2.0 support:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/
Does anyone know for sure? We'd like to do some monitoring
& reporting
in Flex & make it available on the go for people, but
don't want to go buy the phones
until we know it is possible.
Thanks

If so, then Flash is installed fine. Note, though, that Flash

only play when viewed in a browser (html file) or when
embedded in an
application using ActiveX or similar. So if you are tryting

file, that won't work.

Premier pro 5.5 not compatable with windows 7 64 bit

I have recently spent over 3.5 hours on the phone live only to be told they can't fix the problem of Premier pro shutting down in Windows 7 64bit every time I try to open it.
I was told to install Pro 4. I have pro 4 and that is why I bought 5.5 Now I can't get pro 4 to work either it also is shutting down. Has anyone had the problem. I believe Adobe has left me hanging after spending 495.

I was finally luckey enough to get a tech on the phone. To get the tech I had to call sales and explain what was happening , that the 800-833 6687 would get me to choice 2 for tech help and then hang up. This happened yesterday 10-28-2011 roughly 18 times. The sales person was kind enough to stay on the phone and verify what I was saying and go through the connections and get me to a tech who knew what he was doing and take the time to do it. It took roughly 1hour and 30 minutes to determine that the video card was the problem. The adobe site lists my card and compatable with the suite. I took the machine to Best Buy tech
and tried to show him the problem and the system worked. I recreated the scene at home and found the difference was that BB was using only one monitor. Premier Pro 5.5 is the only part of the suite that will not work with dual monitors. For 3 days I have spent countless hours and exausted patience only to solve the problem myself. So much for Adobe tech help.

Is eSATA compatable with SATA2 drives?

I have pavilion dv3000 laptop with eSATA port. Have run SATA external drives successfully.
I purchased larger SATA 2 drive (1.5TB) for backup data and computer will not recognise the drive using eSATA connection yet it does when I connect via USB. I want to use SATA connection because of speed advantage.
Is the eSATA port compatable with SATA2? If not, whats a fix?
Peter

Try partitioning your external 1.5 TB hard drive to something smaller than 1 TB (maybe two equal partitions). Your system may have a size limitation on the sata HD size.
I use an esata external enclosure containing a sata drive and I connect it to an internal sata port that I extended to the back of my PC. I can also use this device with the esata ports on my PC. It work both ways for me. Also works with USB since my enclosure has both port types. I see about 70 MBps using my 7200 rpm external HD. Almost twice that of USB2.

IBook G4 with lid closed

I have an iBook G4 with external keyboard and mouse. The help screen says if I put the iBook to sleep and close the lid, I can hit any key and my external Monitor will wake-up. Unfortunately it wakes up for just a second and goes right beack to sleep. After several hours of trying, I have had no luck correcting this. In the discussion it says iBooks were not made to be able to do this because the keyboard is where heat is dissipated? If that is so, why does the help screen say how to do it?
Any advice out there?
Thanks.
iBook Mac OS X (10.4.6) External display, keyboard and mouse

Capps, Welcome to the discussion area!
The help screen says if I put the iBook to sleep and close the lid, I can hit any key and my external Monitor will wake-up.
The help screen is wrong and is really referring to a PowerBook. That does not work with an iBook.

Does anyone know of a good A3 photo scanner compatable with OS 10.8 mountain lion? I need it to scan watercolour artwork. I was interested in Microtek scanmaker 9800XL and also Epson Expression 10000 but neither are compatible. Thanks :-)

Daniel Craigie-
How full is the hard drive that you are trying to save to? Not that it should matter, but have you tried scanning another document?
Is the scanner plugged directly into the Mac? Try it that way.
Disconnect all peripherals except keyboard, monitor, mouse and scanner and see if the problem goes away.

Hi Frederick,
You're spending a lot of money. I will add my 2¢ -- -- but you must, as I assume you know, fully research your options.
Environment:
Start with your workspace (inc. lighting) and your clothes.
Screen:
The iMac screens are lovely, but not, from what I hear, monitor-grade accurate. For critical color work, use NEC or Eizo monitors. I use NEC, with their SpectraView II software and an X-Rite ColorMunki photospectrometer. At the time, this was the least expensive color-calibrated workflow.
Printer:
Epson's are great, imho. I use a 3880 in my studio and rent a 9900 by the hour when needed. I have read of problems (iirc) with one of the printers in the 7000 line, however. The take-home lesson that I filed in my brain was, "If you're going to spend the money on the 7000 line, just get the 9000 line."
Aperture workflow:
Aperture is a fantastic workflow tool. Since you are adept with PS, you should set PS as your external editor. Use Apertures formidable tools for storing and organizing your Images, and its robust editing tools for either all your proofing, or all but your most demanding editing needs. That said, allow a good bit of time to get the feel of Aperture. It is not at all like Bridge. But your important choice is which RAW converter you want to use. There is, imho, no reason to use Aperture if you are going to use Adobe's (or anyone else's) RAW converter.
Good luck!
--Kirby.
