Mini Works with others

I just got my mini December 31, 2010. I plugged it in hdmi to hdmi to my tv. (Element 32") It shows a blue screen when the mini is off but once i turn it on it goes to a black screen, mind you i use the hdmi on the tv for xbox and the same cable for xbox. I only have one hdmi port tho. Now if i plug the mini into the other tv (Sanyo 26") I plug it into the dvi hdmi port (it has 2 hdmi ports) and it works fine.
I went to bestbuy to get a dvi to vga adapter. The mini has the hdmi to dvi adapter. I open the dvi-vga and there are 4 pins next to the bigger pin, so i had to break them otherwise they dont fit the apple adapter. I used my vga cable for my pc (I know, pc=junk, thats why I have a mini now lol) and the mini does not work for either tv using vga.
What is going on? and how can I fix it? and no i can not use the sanyo tv cause it is in another room.

You likely need this adapter instead of what you bought:

Breaking off pins is generally a sign that the adapter is wrong.
+Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter MB572Z+
+Use the Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter to connect to a standard analog monitor, projector, or LCD that uses a VGA connector or cable. Review the documentation or check with the manufacturer of your monitor to make sure you're choosing the right adapter.+

  • Does the iPod Mini Work with Windows?

    I am thinking of buying an iPod mini but I don't have an Apple computer. Does the iPod mini work with Windows efficiently? Thanks....

    Hello Ian,
    Can you be really specific about the necessary Windows XP updates needed? I run XP Pro on a rather new computer and just got an IPOD mini. I'm ready to tear my hair out because iTunes seems to crash my computer every time I change one CD for another. iTunes runs REALLY, REALLY slow for me. Also read on the board that iTunes 6.0 and the mini don't work well together. True or not true?
    Thanks - Genevieve

    Does the mini work with my current mouse and keyboard? HDTV ?

    TV yes if it has a VGA, HDMI or DVI input
    Mouse and keyboard: I have no idea since you provided no information as to which ones you have.
    Any mouse and keyboard with USB connections will work included ones for a PC.

  • ISight not working with other apps

    I've currently been having a problem with my Intel iMac (specs in signature) since the iSight works with iChat (the green light turns on and everything), but it doesn't work with other apps such Delicious Library or Photo Booth. I also have a Windows XP partition on here, and it works just fine.
    With Photo Booth, I just get a green screen and no message. On Delicious Library I get a white screen and no message either. I've tried deleting the .plist file for Photo Booth, but that hasn't worked. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

    If nothing above solves your problem, try all relevant suggestions from http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93240
    If the problem continues, you may have a hardware or software conflict. Some users report that plug-ins installed by Delicious Library cause conflicts with iSight.
    If your problem remains after trying all relevant Troubleshooting suggestions, uninstall D/L (or at least remove any QuickTime plug-ins D/L installs) to see if your system has a D/L conflict.

  • How to work with others in a same workspace (I mean collaboration)?

    I need to work with others in a same workspace.
    Is there any mechanism support collaboration in JDeveploper?
    Many thanks.
    Ben

    You can use a version management software to do this.
    JDeveloper has excellent support for CVS which is a free version management tool.
    You need to install CVS on a server that will provide access to all the users and then you can check-in your workspace and others can check it out.
    In addition you can download extensions to JDeveloper that support Subversion, Clearcase, Perforce, and Serena Dimension as version management software.
    For a basic introduction to working in teams with JDeveloper and a CVS repository see:

  • FM Transmitter used to work fine but stopped working, bought 2 new ones and neither work, they work with other Ipods in the house, IPOD Usb syncs fine with Computer, why won't it work with the FM transmitters anymore?

    Are the other iPods models, same version as yours. The 2 New FM Tx may need a new iPod software, which you can update via iTunes.
    Good Luck!

  • Hi im staying in UAE, why doesnt my interactive notification work with other apps like facebook?

    why doesnt my interactive notification work with other apps like facebook?
    its only working with the message app notifications.

    Sounds like the iPhone is carrier locked with Vodafone and if so, it can't be used with another carrier's SIM card.
    If so, only Vodafone can officially unlock the iPhone or send the unlock request to Apple.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 no longer see's my scanner.  So I cannot scan my pictures, help.  Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer.  Scanner works with other programs in my PC.  Problem is PS12

    So I cannot scan my pictures, help.  Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer.  Scanner works with other programs in my PC.  Problem is PS12

    I bought the Officejet 6500A Plus about one month and have experienced the very same problem. I tried to remedy this problem following suggestions in a number of different posts (static IP, router, firewalls etc), all to no avail. Last week I called support. The support I received by the tech over several hours and different days for a week was very good. However none of his suggestions corrected the connection issue. After today's recommended fix failed, he advised HP is aware of this issue with the 6500 and other affected printers. He claimed HP was working on a firmware upgrade. He did not know when the update would be provided. The tech also claimed HP acknowledged this problem in a written announcement. He agreed to email the announcement to me. I haven't received it. This has been the only problem I've had with the 6500

  • Getting rm-1500 that came with audigy4 to work with other applicati

    Hello all
    I've done a search and not come up with much, well that was helpful or recent so thought i'd post.
    I have an Audigy 4 sound card (can't see any other names so it's not a pro or platinum or anything else - just a bog standard audigy 4)
    it's an internal card and came with a usb ir receiver and rm-500 remote control. I installed the software off the cd and then i have installed the latest drivers from the website and also the mediasource software from the website (i hadn't installed the mediasource software from the cd!)
    The remote works ok in the creative entertainment centre - but how can you use it with other programs?
    Looking at other posts, i checked in the entertainment centre and made sure i had the 'enable remote control' 'enable remote control when windows starts up' 'enable control of windows applications' all ticked.
    I don't have any section where i can 'add' applications.
    I've also heard mention of a settings area in the mediasource program, i have version 5.0.38- been in there and i don't have a remote control tab or a remote and OSD tab - no other settings for the remote control.
    So is it possible to get the remote to control other applications - i'm thinking windows media player , media player classic, a latest version of poweerdvd or windvd, VLC, and maybe itunes.
    Is there anything i can do? Even if it involves a lot of manual working? I've seen some 3rd party remote software but they don't seem to work with the creative usb receivers.
    At the moment the power button turns the creative entertainment centre on and off as does the start button.
    Ideally i'd like to be able to open and close other programs with the remote control as well as pause/play/forward/etc - not sure if this is possible though.
    At the moment i'm going through this thread but not sure if it applies to my remote control
    http://tinyurl.com/24kknj
    I should also add that i have a directory at
    C:\Program Files\Creative\SBAudigy4\Entertainment Center\KeyMap
    which has files called windvd, powerdvd, wmpapp, winamp - so it looks like it should be able to get them to work, maybe with just a bit of modification - as i said before it would be good if i could open and close a media or dvd player with a remote key as well as controlling the program.
    one other thing - and i'm not sure if i imagined it LOL, but when i tried the remote a year or so ago (i think maybe with just the drivers installed and no other software)
    i'm sure the power button on the remote turned my pc off (with no configuration on my part) and maybe even on.
    Could it really do this?

    i've discovered that pressing the cancel button closes apps and once everything is closed pressing it brings up the shutdown pc pop up where you can then select turn off, restart etc - so i can use it to turn the pc off.
    Still having probs getting it to work with other apps though - strange as i have the key files for various apps but other people seem to have a setting in mediasource where they can 'ADD' an app by browsing for the exectable - i don't have the remote settings page in my mediasource (latest version) for some reason.
    Can anybody help?

  • Can Oracle APEX work with other databases?

    Can Oracle APEX work with other databases like Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase... etc.?

    Though, the Generic Connectivity does not cost extra.
    It doesn't have all the features of Transparent Gateway, but if you can access the foreign database with an ODBC driver,
    it's an easy way to integrate multiple databases.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14232/gencon.htm#HETER007
    In one application, I pull data into materialized views from MS Access and Lotus Notes.
    Since Apex lives in an Oracle database, it inherits all of the functionality of Oracle.
    There's not much it can't do.
