Is there a driver for the apple genuine dvi to composite adapter to make it work on Maverick OS?

Im having a problem with a few parts to it but the main problem is my Apple Genuine DVI to Composite is no being recognized correctly. & not allowing me to mirror or multiple screen or anything. It wont even broadcast a signal to the secondary screen or anything. This all started when I upgraded to Maverick OS. I'm pretty sure apple has a driver for this problem. Can anybody point me to where I can find it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there djshotgunn,
There is not a specific driver that you would need to download outside of Software Update. I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps in the article below if you are experiencing video issues with an external monitor.
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
Many common display issues can be resolved easily by making sure the software on your Apple computer and the firmware on your video adapter, display and Thunderbolt cabling is up to date. Check for updates for Apple products by using Software Update, the Mac App Store, or visiting Apple downloads. Check with the manufacturer for any updates that may be available for displays, extenders, or adapters not made by Apple.

  • Is there a download for the Apple Hardware test 3A126?

    Is there a download for the Apple Hardware test 3A126? I get a gray screen for several minutes until start up, Tried holding down the "D" key but no test, there is a disc stuck in the superdrive so I can't use the install DVD.

    You can only run the Apple Hardware Test from the correct Disc that came with your system. see > Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test

  • Installing a driver for the Apple Keyboard in Boot camp windows

    I recently installed Boot Camp, VMware and Vista on my Mac so that I could move all of my computing on to one computer (I use a few programs that aren't available for the iMac). In Windows I cannot use the number pad for input - I can only use the numbers just above the letters. This is a major inconvenience because I input numbers often. I have tried to search for the driver for the Apple Keyboard that is compatible with windows, but have been unsuccessful.
    Anyone know of a fix for this?
    Thanks!

    I tried putting in the Leopard disk and running setup.exe and that went through the motions of installing all of the drivers, but after I restarted the windows machine it still doesn't recognize my keyboard. This may be a system wide issue, because when I work in Windows it also tells me that I do not have a camera installed for video chat. At first I thought this was just part of the price I had to pay to have a Mac and use windows on it, but now I'm thinking that my drivers were not installed properly because I know a camera is installed internally (obviously - its a less than one year old iMac all-in-one).
    Can anyone think of something that I'm not doing? I have gone into the control panel in the Windows machine and tried to update my driver, but it keeps telling me that the driver is correct (it has windows driver for a standard ps/2 keyboard).

  • Is there a driver for the thunderbolt ethernet adapter on a 2010 Macbook Air?

    The thunderbolt ethernet adapter is not being recognized on my 2010 Macbook Air running 10.6.8. Is there a driver for it?

    That's because there's no thunderbolt port on the 2010 MBair.  You need to buy the USB ethernet adapter.

  • Is there a driver for the PXI-8310 that works with Windows 7?

    The only one I can seem to find is for XP.

    Hello LouisTI,
    Unfortunately there is not a Windows 7 driver for the PXI-Cardbus8310, as this is a legacy device which is currently going EOL (End of Life). The XP driver for the 8310 (which you may already have found) can be downloaded here:
    http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/370/lang/en
    If using Win 7 is critical, we recommend the PXI-ExpressCard 8360 as a replacement for the 8310:

  • Is there a driver for the HP W2371d for osx 10.7.5?

    Is there any way I can use the HP W2371d monitor on my MacBook Pro running OSX 10.7.5?

    On first reading, I thought you needed a driver for an HP Printer.
    The Mac does not use special Drivers for ANY display. It uses one Driver that is heavily parameterized.
    Your display must be connected properly and include the pins for the Data Side Channel. At Startup, the Mac sends a query to the Display asking "what is your name and what are your capabilities?" Driver parameters are adjusted automatically in response to that query -- no additional downloads are needed or are useful.
    The proper procedure is:
    Plug it in.
    if your Mac does not immediately recognize it, use the (Detect displays) button.
    If it does not work post back with your exact model of MacBook, what version of Mac OSX[ 10.7.5], what display card you are using if you have separate display cards, what port you are attempting to connect {Mini DVI,  DVI, Mini DisplayPort/ThunderBolt} , and what cables and adapters you are using.

  • Will the Apple mini DVI to video adapter work with a macbook? What to Buy?

    I went to my local Apple Reseller and asked for a mini dvi to video adapter to use to connect my macbook to a tv using either s-video or the yellow RCA cable. I was told that they only had the one that was for an ibook and Power book and that this would not work with a Macbook. I would need a different one. Is this correct. If so, what do I need? I have looked on the online Apple Store and cannot find anything that fits this description. They only list one type of Mini DVI to tv adapter? I just want to be able to connect my Macbook to a TV.

    As it happens, I just bought the mini-DVI to video connector for my wife's Macbook (C2D) yesterday. I am in Australia (which is a PAL country), but I didn't see anything on the device or the packaging which indicated it as being PAL-specific. In fact, in Display Preferences when it is connected to the Mac and TV and in use, the panel relating to the TV output (which is shown by the Mac on the TV screen) is where you select between PAL-50Hz and NTSC-60Hz, so I'd guess it is a single worldwide device, rather than their being separately-manufactured PAL and NTSC variants of the connector.
    Anyway, on the back of the top cardboard part of the packaging is a picture of the connectors (because you cannot really see the pins in the Mini-DVI connector itself when packaged, due to an opaque plastic "keeper" over the end of the plug).
    To reconfirm what is said above, the pin configuration on the mini-DVI port on the MacBook and what you need on the Mini-DVI connector is a horseshoe or "U" shape. I don't remember if any specific model of Mac is listed, but I believe as long as it is that U-shaped connector you'll be fine with the same connector kit.
    The "mini-VGA to video" connector is not what you want for a MacBook; mini-VGA is not "U"-shaped inside, but rather two rows of pins in "II" configuration (even though the outside dimensions of mini-VGA and mini-DVI look very similar).

  • Will Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter device work on HD TV's?

    I have a Macbook. Will using just the Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter work for me if I have and HD TV so that I can watch movies from the Internet on the HD TV screen? How good will the quality be compared to watching on the Macbook itself? And I've noticed how short the chord is for the Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter. Will I have to buy another chord to make it reach the back of the HD TV? Thanks.

  • Apple Micro-DVI to VGA Adapter for a White Macbook

    When I read about the Apple Micro-DVI to VGA Adapter it talks about how it's designed for the MacBook Air and works with MacBook Pro, but will it work with a regular MacBook? My MacBook seems to have the same port necessary...

    You're sure that that port does not look like that:

  • Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter and Mac mini (2009)

    Can anyone tell me whether the Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter listed here:
    http://store.apple.com/ca/product/M9319G/A
    works with the latest Mac mini (early 2009)?
    If it does not what other solutions are there to connect to composite, component or s-video?

    KC from Ann Arbor, MI had this to say as a review on the page to which you have linked;
    10-May-2009
    I bought a Mac Mini (May 2009) and this Mini-DVI to Video adapter with plans to use it to send an S-video signal to an analog TV. Though the sales staff at the Apple store said it should work, it does not. The graphics card apparently should support it, and it may be addressed with a future driver update, but as of now this does not work. I have used a mini-DVI to VGA adapter and monitor to verify that the port is working, and also verified that the S-video cable and TV input work. There are third party VGA to S-video/RCA adapters available so I plan to use one of those for my purposes. This is probably a 5-star product when used with the right Mac; however, Apple should have made it clear that having a mini-DVI port on your Mac is necessary but not sufficient for this to work - hence the 3 stars.

  • Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter Questions

    I'm in the processing of producing an instructional video using an Intel Core Duo iMac and iMovie. This content will be distributed primarily via broadcast over cable TV. Considering this, I'd like to be able to edit and view my dv footage on a TV monitor as I work.
    I was told by the Apple Store person that the Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/6314001/wo/jY18n ncCp3Nx2tYjws52iCaPkH1/1.0.21.1.0.8.25.7.11.2.3) will enable me to
    1. Mirror my desktop to simultaneously show me what my iMovie edits will look like on a TV; and
    2. Enable me to edit in iMovie using the TV as my desktop.
    Am I understanding the capabilities of the Apple Mini-DVI to Video Adapter correctly?
    Regarding Cables
    1. I currently use an RCA composite cable to view dv footage from my camcorder directly on the TV. Is this the same cable I'd attach to the Mini-DVI to Video Adapter?
    2. The DVD recorder/player my TV signal is routed through has an s-video port. Is there a benefit to using an s-video connection in addition to/or instead of the RCA connections?
    Thanks for helping me understand this setup scenario!

    Ditto to Karsten's post:
    "Mirroring" a Mac's output to a TV, or plugging in an adaptor to provide a display on a Mac's screen and simultaneously on a TV ruins the Mac's display while this is happening by lowering its resolution. Ugghhh! (..I've tried this several times, in order to get a 'TV' signal out, showing the Mac's desktop, but it's hopeless..)
    Karsten's method is the best - output to camcorder via the normal FireWire cable, and plug a TV or monitor into the camcorder's A/V Out socket!
    [..Note, though, that Matti has pointed out that - what was it..? - during editing, some updating of the TV-thro-camcorder display doesn't work correctly. I can't remember exactly what the problem was, and I don't see it mentioned on Matti's Bugs Page, but there was some slight oddity. Nevertheless, this is still the best way of viewing on a TV or monitor..]
