Monitor cuts off wireless

This is a weird problem. Say Im running Xp on my macbook. I have an external DVI monitor hooked up to it. However, my wireless connection is very flaky. It would slow down after a few minutes and disconnected. I have tried reinstalling the drivers, etc. However, when I disconnected the external monitor and used the macbook screen, the wireless connection is fine. Anyone have this problem? Any suggestions? Thanks
P.S. I dont have this problem when using OS X.

I might suggest you post your topic in the Boot Camp forum. Your issue may not be specific to the MacBook and folks in there may have had more Windows-specific experience.

External HP Pavilion 23xi monitor cuts off laptop audio

I want to use my HP Pavilion 23xi monitor as an external monitor for my laptop (Sony Vaio, Windows 7). The laptop only has an HDMI connection, so I used an HDMI cable to connect it. The HP monitor works fine, but when it is connected, it cuts off all audio output on the laptop. There is no sound from the internal speaker on the laptop, or from the headphone connection.
If the HDMI connection automatically takes over the audio output, surely there should be at least a headphone socket on the PC? I can't change the connection type, as the laptop only has HDMI for an external monitor. Is there any configuration change that will fix this?

Hi,
As you mentioned, the HDMI sound may take over sound, disable HDMI sound may help. Pleae try:
Right click the speaker icon
Select Playback devices
Right click HDMI sound and disable it

I connected my Macbook Pro 2012 to a 1080p monitor, and the display is cut off at the top?

Hello,
I have just connected my Macbook Pro to a 1080p 23' LG monitor using a Displayport to VGI adapter. However, when I use the 1080p setting, it cuts off a little bit of the top bar. When I switch to lower resolutions, it works just fine. I would rather use it at 1080p, though. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks,
HiTryx

You may need a display adaptor but can otherwise use a non-Apple monitor.

Press any key on the wireless keyboard after you close the MBP and it goes to sleep. The computer will wake up with the external monitor as its display. This is called Clamshell mode.

When I turn on my iPad and. Go onto the Internet the wireless router cuts off and the Internet stops working and doesn't respond

Hello,
When I turn on my iPad 2 and go onto the safari and go onto google the wireless router cuts off and turns the Internet off and the Internet doesn't respond and then after I have to turn the router off and turn it on and then it is back to normal it has happening when I recently updated the new iOS 6 on my iPad since then it was been doing this please can you help and help me sort the problem out
Thanks

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Toshiba Portege S100-S1133 Laptop - Intenet (Cable or Wireless) cuts off when phone rings

Toshiba Portege S100-S1133 Laptop, Intel(R) Pentium(R) M, processor 1.73GHz 795MHz, 512 MB of RAM. Internet (cable or wireless - COMCAST service) cuts off when the house phone (AT&T service) rings. The HP Laptop in the house doesn't have this problem. COMCAST can't fix the problem.

The only way to fix the problem entirely is to not have any 2.4GHz cordless phones in the house. You can try to change the wireless channel on your router but it probably won't be far enough from the 2.4GHz phones to help. I assume when you say it shares internet you mean that your home computer is connected in the back with ethernet and that is why the internet stays up on it. Your MBP connects wirelessly so it disconnects when the phone is in use.
Go to 192.168.1.1. Log in by leaving username blank and password is admin. [Follow these instructions|http://www.tutorial5.com/content/view/155/79> to change anything you need to (such as if you have unsecured wireless). Click wireless and under basic wireless settings you probably have channel 6 by default. Try channel 1. (Though you can also get into problems with wireless networks of neighbors interfering so download [Airport Radar|http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/networking_security/airportradar .html] and try to avoid channels that are nearby).
As I said the only solution is not using 2.4GHz phones.

Wireless Phone Cutting Off Airport Express

I think that my wireless phone is cutting off my wireless connection for my internet. Can that be true? Is there a phone I can buy that won't do that?

What you are probably experiencing is adjacent channel interference. Before potentially wasting money by purchasing a new phone, you could try to change the channel of either the phone or the Airport Express. Some quick tests will tell you which channels play nicely with each other. 2.4GHz is a crowded frequency range but there should be plenty of room for these to coexist.

Yes, the product number would be helpful. Please don't provide the Serial #, however.
I believe your problem may be that the monitor is not compatible with Win 8.1. The only updates that are available are for Win XP and Vista. You can find this information in the link that I provided under the section titled "Software Update".

Print border cut off

Hello, I just got a Pixma Pro 10 yesterday and after several hours figuring stuff out (downloading the right software, etc) as my cd/dvd drive is not working. I finally was able to print a test print.
My issue is that after I made a print, on one side of the print the border is cut off, there's like only a hair's width of a border on the left side, I'm printing in Landscape orientation if that helps. . So only three sides have the white border. I used Canon's Print Studio Pro as well as printing from Lightroom. Printing from Lightroom left a bit more border on the left side but not much.
I spent hours up trying to figure out how to fix it but to no avail. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it.

First, you must not let the printer set anything. Turn off every bit off control it has. You can do this with the Canon My Printer under the Printer Settings tab. Do you know how? I will guess, yes, for now but if you don't get back to me.
Second, you need to have your photo editor (like Photoshop) handle all the settings and color matching. You know how to do this? I prefer Photoshop and I use AdobeRGB color space.
And lastly, it is essential you get some settings on your monitor that somewhat matches what the printer is printing. Your printer may be doing exactly what you are telling it to do and you have no idea it is, because your monitor is so far off. If you don't do this step, you can forget the other steps. However, there are only a few things that you need to be concerned with. You don't need any fancy extra add-ins to do this. No additional software or gadgets, etc.
Most people set their monitors too bright.
You must get the gray-scale very close. You need to get the brightness very close and you need the contrast very close.
After you do these things you can make adjustments to your prints by just looking at your screen. Because you know the monitor and printer are on the same level. One more point, you can NOT get a printer to print every color exactly the way you saw it. It isn't possible as all colors and adjustments effect all others. My goal is to get the skin tones right. That is what people notice most. Remember you are dealing with two different disciplines here. One is colored light and the other is colored dyes. They are not the same thing.
All the Canon photo printers I have ever seen have a warm/magenta cast. Canon engineers must prefer this look. It can not be changed. You need to "fix" it in post.
Make sure you have the correct ICC profiles and you are using Canon brand ink and paper until you get good with the printer. Very, very important, otherwise you don't know if the printer is doing exactly what you are telling it to or not.
Important is, use the USB connection until everything is right. You are just adding another issue when you try to set up the printing and the wireless all at the same time. Just like using Canon branded products until it is a go. Use a real printer USB cable. Not just any old USB cable. Get everything right before you explore.

Import from FCP Cutting Off Audio

I've just had a few hours added to an interview I've been editing thanks to either a setting I don't know about or an import bug between FCP and Soundtrack. I'll try to explain.
I have 4 video tracks and their accompanying audio tracks. After editing the footage (which include several "J" and "L" cuts, if that matters), I sent the file to Soundtrack as a multitrack project. Upon beginning to work on the audio, I quickly discovered that the import had cut off some of the clips. Not all, but some. The edit sounds fine in FCP, but then the clip is cutoff mid-word in Soundtrack. For example, in FCP a clip ended on the word "purpose". In Soundtrack, the same clip ended at "pur-".
I could think of nothing else to do but take the affected clips one at a time, and by trial and error, extend the audio clips in FCP 5-10 frames past where they were supposed to go. A couple hours later....somehow--even though it sounded wrong now in FCP--it sounded correct in Soundtrack. Then I made my audio adjustments, added a background track, and took it back into FCP.
This has really confounded me. Is there some kind of export bug? A setting? What?

well you might be in the wild west just a little. I haven't tried editing anything from an iPhone. My guess is that the video isn't frame based, but that it's probably a long GOP codec. I do everything in one of the flavors of Prores. You might want to try that and see if it clears up the issue. Download a copy of Mpeg Stream clip and convert your files to ProRes and then bring them into Final Cut. Then you'll be using proper frame based footage.
Note that you can get a cable for your iPhone that, when plugged into the audio socket, gives you both audio in and monitoring out. I have one, and I use it for a Sony wireless mic set. Then your audio is automatically wedded and you can skip the hassles of double system sound. You could even take the monitor out of the H4 and run it into the camera so you have an automatic backup. Oh, and check the frequency of the sound on the iPhone footage. It might not be 48k.
Take a look at Pluraleyes, for syncing double system sound. It does a very nice job

Playing slideshow on tv from ipad cutting off picture

I am connecting my ipad 2 to my TV with a RocketFish Composite adapter and trying to play a video slideshow on my TV. I am able to play the video/slideshow just fine, however both the top and bottom of the videos (and pictures) are being cut off by several inches. When played directly on my iPad the size is fine ( no cut offs). The videos were converted to Ipad compatable (.m4v) using Aimersoft Video Converter and the iPad presets. The resolutions of the videos are 720 x 480. The TV I am connecting to is 1080P LED TV. I have tried different aspect ratios in the TV's settings but there are not much to choose from and each setting changes the size of the video a little, but the amount being cut off from the top and bottom is consistent. What can i do to correct this problem. Also, I need this slideshow for a trade show I am in tomorrow afternoon, so a quick response would help a lot.
Another thing... In my research so far, I found that iPad 2 can mirror its display (meaning what you see on the iPad you see on the TV) onto the TV. But I cannot seem to get that to work either. I can only play videos and slideshows from the apps that allow you to. How do I go about mirroring my display to my TV? Does it only work with a HDMI connection?

Cmart1019-
What adapter are you using? I have the Digital AV Adapter that connects to the HDMI input of a small Vizio HDTV. It seems to work OK, and has stereo sound. My only problem has been the weight of the HDMI cable pulling the adapter out of the iPad.
Apple also sells VGA, Component and Composite adapters. I also have the VGA adapter which works on the HDTV and one LCD monitor. However it doesn't work on a couple of older monitors I tried. Also VGA is video only. You would need to run a separate cable for sound on the TV.

Sides of Keynote presentation cut off when exported to iDVD

Hi,
I have a keynote presentation with the slides set to 800X600 that I am trying to burn to a DVD. I am able to burn fine but when it plays on my DVD player and CRT Samsung TV, the sides of the slides are cut off so that the first and last letters of many lines are not viewable. I also tried on a friend's TV with the same results The DVD looks fine when playing on my iMac but it's widescreen.
I first tried exporting the keynote presentation as a quicktime movie set to full quality 800X600. The next time I exported to iDVD which first exported to a quicktime movie with a size of 720X540. I thought that would fix it but that presentation also has the sides cut off. The iDVD project is using a standard 4:3 aspect ration. Should I try a widescreen project or won't that make more of the slide disappear. Any help would be much apprecitated.

Your problem is that while on a monitor, you can see the entire picture. Any DVD player connected to a standard television is going to show, at most, 90% of the image...some may only show 80%. This is due to something called Overscan on televisions. To account for this overscan, you have to make sure that as you're creating your presentation, you have nothing near the edges.
A good rule of thumb is to create an area that's 80% of the size of your presentation (in 4:3 resolutions, widescreen, you only have to worry about the right and left) and, as you're creating, keep dropping this shape onto your presentation slides to make sure you're inside it. Then, you'll be pretty sure that even on the worst televisions, all you information will show.

Bottom half of text cut off

My printer: Photosmart C6280 All-in-one. The printer connects to my wireless router via Ethernet cable. Two computers use this printer on a wireless home network. The problem has occurred with both computers. Both computers (an HP desktop and a Gateway laptop) run Windows Vista Home Premium. The problem I describe occurs when printing text from Microsoft Word 2007.
From time to time, the last line of text in a document or a label comes out with the lower half of the entire bottom line cut off. The odd thing is that sometimes (but not always), I can resend the print job and get good results. For example, on one occasion after encountering this problem two consecutive times with a particular document, I re-sent the print job and used the back side of a used sheet. It printed correctly, so I put a new sheet of paper into the tray and tried a fourth time. This time, I got the same unacceptable result! Tried a fifth time and got a good print.
One important point: The problem has never once occurred when I print photos. The problem seems to occur only when printing text.

We were also having this problem but after researching around on the net and finding some other people with the same issue, we found the following fix worked (based on a Windows 7/Vista Machine):
Click Start > Devices and Printers
Right click 'HP Photosmart C7200 series' and click Printer Properties
Click the Ports tab
Uncheck Enable Bidirectional Support
For XP users, you can get to the same thing by finding your printer in the "Printers" area of Control Panel. Following this, opening the properties for your printer from there either by right clicking directly on the printer, or by double clicking the printer and then in that window selecting Printer > Properties.
We found that the above worked for us so I hope it works for some of you too.
