InFocus X2 Can't Connect with New MacBook Pro

I'm trying to use my old (but reliable) InFocus X2 projector with a new MacBook Pro I recently purchased. I have the correct adapter (mini-port), but the inFocus X2 is just not able to find the mac. It just shows "searching...."
The X2 projector shows up on my "Detect Displays" window on the Mac.
Any "words of wisdom?" I was able to connect to this projector with my two older macbooks okay.

  • Slow PAN connection with new MacBook Pro

    I have an older MackBook Pro, one of the first, running 10.5.5 and and brand new MacBook Pro bought today.
    When I use Bluetooth to hook via PAN to the older MBP I get 65-85k downloads, when I use the new MBP I get a stuttering 3-6k. I've used the same setup pair procedure with both MBPs and even gone as far as retraining the older MBP and eliminating it for the phone/shutting off the older machine with no luck.
    Any ideas ?

    I have pair and deleted the AT&T Tilt several times on both my old MBP and my new MBP. The Old MBP still performs a full speed when using PAN to connect to the internet. My new MBP is a DOG through PAN, 3-4k max download with long periods of no activity.
    I've looked at both computers Preference files and they are basically the same. There is a difference between the Bluetooth software on the two machines even though they both run 10.5.5, I guess different bluetooth chips?
    The older MBP uses a Cambridge chipset
    The new MBP reports a Broadcom chipset.
    I'm getting a bad feeling from this switch...

  • Bluetooth speakers won't connect with new Macbook Pro

    I just sold my Macbook Pro (mid 2012 release) and purchased the brand new lighter, faster Macbook Pro Retina display that was just released a couple of weeks ago (Mid 2014).
    There are a host of things this new Pro can't/won't do (which I didn't know upon purchasing it), but my question right now is: why won't my bluetooth speakers (which worked great with my other Macbook Pro) properly connect/work with my new one?  The bluetooth recognizes the speakers--it says they're there in the bluetooth set up--but they don't work, nor do they show up in my sound options (In my system preferences, only the internal speakers are listed as available output devices).  Why would they be visible but not able to be connected?
    Is there a fix?  Can I get my bluetooth speakers to work?  Or are these more things (along with my Apple Remote) that I have to scrap?
    Thanks!

  • How can I connect my new macbook pro to HDTV, either wirelessly or via a cable?

    I just got a Macbook Pro about a month ago and I'm trying to figure out how to connect it to my HDTV. Is it possible to connect it and simply use the HDTV as a display that way?
    Ideally, I'd like to connect it wirelessly, but if not, I understand that a cable should work. I tried to look for a cable from one of the Macbook Pro's ports to the HDMI port on the tv... but couldn't find anything. My old Macbook had a DVI port and I don't think it exist anymore (unless I'm missing it).
    Hope to hear back soon.
    Guy

    If your MBP can use it, I highly recommend the following adapter:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/H1824ZM/A/Moshi_Mini_DisplayPort_to_HDMI_Adapt er
    I'd be very surprised if it doesn't have a capable mini DisplayPort, since my not-quite-one-year-old MBP does.  But to be sure, first make sure you've got a mini DisplayPort, then scroll down on the page above and find a user comment titled "How you know if it is supported w/o guessing."

  • Experiencing Slow Internet Connections with new Macbook Pro

    I have had the laptop since December and I have had several problems regarding the internet. Just a little background, I have always had pretty fast internet and have never experienced any of these problems with any other computers. My family owns 2 other PC's(ew) and they don't have any problems with internet speed.
    Examples:
    -90% of the time my arrow will not change to the hand when something is clickable
    -downloading songs takes forever, even when they are only 10 megabytes
    -pages wont load even simple ones such as search engines
    The overall feel of my connection is slow and the sites i use are the basic ones which dont require too many flashy things.
    When I reset my modem the internet works better for a little bit but then goes back to its old ways.
    If you guys could give me any tips on the preferences i should have please help

  • Connect my new Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion to my HP PhotoSmart B210

    How can I connect my new MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion to my hp b210 printer?  My printer is about 1.5 years old and works wirelessly just fine with my PC.  I just switched to mac.  The printer is supposed to be airprint compatible according to HP.  HP has no software drivers for me to download.  Instead they say to use Mac Software Update to get the software.  However, there are no updates when I try that.  I have tried adding the printer manually using it's IP address and can print a test page, but when I try to print using an application on the Mac it cannot find the printer or says the printer is in use.  Help!!!

  • How can I connect an old macbook pro...

    How can I connect an old macbook pro with that does NOT have a Thunderbolt connection to a new 27 inch iMac? I only need to do this for one specific purpose, to be able to see the work I'm doing on the laptop in InDesign on the iMac's larger screen (at a larger size as it were, so I can see a double page spread (or even a whole page would be an improvement) in one go)?  I gather it might be possible to get an adaptor but note that Apple don't seem to sell one. I know I could do this with the cinema screen but would rather do it with a new imac as that will have more use to me overall. It's a work laptop which I don't own so I don't own the Indesign to just be able to use that on an iMac. I have tried to connect monitors to the laptop in the past, but with no success at all.  I hope someone can help . Thank you.

    Im pretty sure you are talking about the M8536 which has an ADC Adapter.
    you will have to daisy chain a thunderbolt to DVI adapter with an DVI to ADC Adapter.
    the first adapter:

    The second adapter is old so you may find used ones on ebay like this:

  • How can I restore my new Macbook pro to Factory setting?

    How can I restore my new Macbook pro to Factory setting?

    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: Be sure you have an active internet connection.

  • Can I take my new MacBook Pro retina to an apple store for them to transfer files

    Can I take my new MacBook Pro retina to an apple store for them to transfer files from my PC? I am migrating from window 7. I was planning on doing myself but it looks like you need two thunderbolt to Ethernet adapters and two Ethernet cables? What is the best way to transfer? I live in a rural area and think maybe wirelessly may not be the best way? Thanks for any assistance!

    Can I use my back up from my PC to transfer? I just backed up my PC to WD My Book. Will that work?
    Probably will work fine. It's worth a try and won't do any harm. 
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2518
    What you can transfer to your Mac depends on the files.
    Photo files (.jpg .tiff etc) fine
    Music files - some may need conversion software to be used in iTunes (unless you had iTunes on your PC) but free converters are there
    Video files - ditto, some will work in iMovie, others may need converting to work
    Text - Pages will read .doc and .docx files.  Most Word processing files/spreadsheet files/presentation files can be read in iWork but if not, can use Open Office or Libre Office (both free downloads)
    Windows programs (eg those with a .exe suffix) won't work on a Mac without installing Windows (e.g. via BootCamp).

  • After the 2015-002 update to Mavericks, I keep losing wi-fi connection with my Macbook Pro.

    After the 2015-002 security update to Mavericks, I keep losing my wi-fi connection with my Macbook Pro. My Kindle Fire stays connected, so I'm assuming the problem is connected to the update. I have to be right next to the router, or sometimes the next room, to stay connected. Sometimes it stays connected for a few hours, no matter where I'm at in the house, then all of sudden it won't. Haven't found a rhyme or reason to it at all. Can anyone help me?

  • Facebook problems with new macbook pro.

    Facebook problems with new macbook pro. I can't publish photo albums to timeline. I can't share items onto timeline. Photos I'm tagged in don't appear on my timeline. Any help?

    Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
    Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
    I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
    I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
    How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
    Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.
