Monitor not powering on

I have a w2072a hp monitor which Is now not powering on and the led too doesnt work .recently I changed an option on the osd,the connectivity option from vga to dvi now its not powering on plss help me

Apple Support had me reset the SMC and after doing so my monitor came back up and functioned like it was supposed to. Support said sometimes after updates we need to reset the SMC if changes aren’t cleared from the previous update resulting in behaviors like I was experiencing. Below are the steps i followed to reset the SMC.....
1. Shut down the computer. 
2 Plug in the MagSafe or USB-C power adapter to a power source and to your computer. 
3 On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. 
4 Release all the keys and the power button at the same time. 
5 Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
On MagSafe power adapters, the LED might change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

27" thunderbolt monitor is not powering back on with Laptop

Since updating to the new version of Yosemite my 27" thunderbolt monitor is not powering back on when plugged into my laptop via the thunderbolt port. Suggestions on how to get it back up?

I want to use my apple TV as a second monitor not a mirrored one, in other words, I want to use my TV as a second screen not a copy of my first screen,other people have asked this question but have been given mirroring answers. I want a second display.

I want to use my apple TV as a second monitor not a mirrored one, in other words, I want to use my TV as a second screen not a copy of my first screen,other people have asked this question but have been given mirroring answers so I am spelling it out here very specifically. I want a second display. This should be possible and would be awesome. Anyone know how to do this?

Nevermind I just installed it to try it and it's awesome, so happy right now, Thanks. All the things I had read about it on third party sites led me to believe it could not do extended desk tops, thanks for your help!

Monitor not recognized by Mac anymore?????

Hi
This is big and what is APPLE doing to solve this issue??
I just copy some posts from the forum to show how big this issue is, there is 8 more pages with the same problem, and i am one of them!!!!
HELP!!!! WE ARE FREAKING OUT HERE AND NEED A SOLUTION!!!
Yes, me. I have an HP w2207 who worked with my 3 y.o. old MacBook (OS 10.4.??) via the DVI-port flawlessly. Then bought a brandnew MacBook Pro with 10.6.X and the external monitor stopped being recognized. It works now that I have changed the connection to the VGA-port of the monitor (and bought yet another adapter for the MacBook Pro) but the quality is not what I'm used to.

Yes. I've tried 7 different Macs including a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard (10.6.2) and my external monitor doesn't work with it either.
For me here's a recap:
Installed SL on a Mac Pro connected to a 23" Cinema via DVI and Olevia 537 via HDMI Input #1 and now that input no longer works with Mac computers.
Reinstalled 10.5.8 on the Mac Pro and HDMI #1 still didn't work, so I plugged the Mac into HDMI #2 and it worked.
Reinstalled SL on the Mac Pro connected to a 23" Cinema via DVI and Olevia 537 via HDMI Input #2 and now that input no longer works with Mac computers.
Since then, every device (PCs, DVD Players, Video Cameras, etc...) I connect to either of the HDMI inputs work fine. However, neither HDMI input works with ANY of the 7 different Macs (regardless of OS version) I've tried, except for a 10-year-old G4 running Panther or Tiger.
The monitor had previously worked with the MacPro (HDMI input #1) and a G5 (HDMI input #2) for almost 2 years.
When I plug the MacPro into any other monitor via HDMI, it works fine. Same thing with the G5.
My theory is still that the installer for Snow Leopard somehow made my monitor's HDMI inputs incompatible with Macs. I'm so frustrated that I'm ready to buy a new monitor, but since there's no guarantee that a new monitor won't be adversely affected by Snow Leopard, I'm still dubious.

Another "me too" post...
Not sure exactly when it stopped working (since I don't use it every day) but my Viewsonic VX2455wm stopped working with my MacBook recently too. Checked with another MacBook (six months newer than my Late 2006 model) and that exhibited the same problem. Both machines have fully patched Snow Leopard installs. Both started with Tiger. Mine is regularly connected to the external monitor, the other has never been connected. I'm connecting using a DVI cable and a mini-DVI-DVI adapter.
The monitor appears to work correctly. I've checked with a Windows laptop connected on the VGA port. I want to test with another DVI-enabled machine to see whether or not its the cable.

Hi Guys
I have the same problem with my new Dell 2209WAf. It worked fine before i changed from L to SL.
I didn't know what happened so i have spend hours and hours to resolve the problem.
Hours with Mac support and friends didn't change anything, i still cant make my Dell to work, or show up in preferences. I am working as a photographer and this issue is a real problem.
I just heard from Mac Support that Apple is working on it.....well, doesn't help us with the problem today.
So Apple, DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! NOW! this problem should NEVER showed up, this is something you should have fixed before telling all the Macers to upgrade!!!

Experiencing the same issues. However, on bit different hardware.
I'm using the XLR8 ProView USB input devices. Using these devices on a mixture of 10.5.8 and 10.6.2 systems (2 MacBooks, 2 Mac Mini and 1 iMac).
I can confirm the following:
When attempting to mirror video, or extend the desktop, using a mini-DVI to S-Video/Composite device on OSX 10.6.2 no video is sent to the mini-DVI device (inputing into the XLR8).
When attempting to mirror video, or extend the desktop, using a mini-DVI to S-Video/Composite device on OSX 10.5.8 video is sent to the mini-DVI device (inputing into the XLR8).
Let me also state, that the mini-DVI port on the Mac Mini's do work. They have been connected to 19" monitors and working without issue. Today, the mini-DVI devices were replaced with minidisplay port devices, which are use in conjunction with the mini-DVI ports.
It would appear, in my case, that the problem is that the mini-DVI port on both the MacBook and Mac Mini, running 10.6.2, as a secondary display device is not operating properly.

Same problems here. I reloaded OS 10.4.6 which is what shipped with my MBP1,2 17" 2.16 Intel Core Duo 2GB ram and after installing that, i was able to select 1920x1080 for my external HP w2338h, DVI-VGA, never been able to connect DVI-HDMI. On SL, the max rez I was able to "use" was 1600x1200 which looked horrible. So this leads me to suspect that this must be an issue with SL.
I spoke with Apple Tech support on Sat and was no help. The only suggestion was that I take my MBP and Monitor to the Apple Store. Those of you who are fortunate enough to live in Chicago in the winter, then you know that option really isn't that feasible, it is but just a giant pain.

I have an iMac 9,1 Intel Core 2 Duo that I bought last June. It came with Leopard, but I upgraded to Snow Leopard. Currently, it's running 10.6.2. My HP w2207 Widescreen monitor works perfectly with it using the DVI port on the HP and the mini-display (not mini-DVI) port on the iMac.
However, I just bought the top-of-the-line iMac 11,1 Intel Core i5 QuadCore three days ago and it crashes nearly every time that it wakes from "sleep" when the HP w2207 is connected to it. It doesn't even recognize that the w2207 is connected to it. Additionally, when the w2207 is connected, it (a) looks terrible - very dim and very granular, and (b) causes the iMac QuadCore to operate very sluggishly. When I disconnect the HP w2207, the iMac QuadCore is lightning-fast.
Much like my older iMac, the QuadCore is running 10.6.2 and I'm using the mini-display port.

This is a Me too post, I have a MacBook and NEC Multisync Monitor that worked fine before I upgraded to 10.6.2. I've tried to get it to work without any luck. I've written NEC to see if they have a solution.

Another me too post. I have a new 17" MacBook Pro with 10.6.2 installed. Trying to connect to an HPL2245wg - sometimes it works flawlessly - other times not at all. Some mornings I spend 30 -40 minutes rebooting, unplugging and plugging the monitor, Detecting Displays, changing the Graphics Card (Energy settings) - all to no avail. Very, very frustrating Apple - please figure out what is going on with this issue....and get it fixed!

Wow, me too. Did a minor software update (apple released it) last night, got on this morning and BANG - my main 24" Dell display is NOT working.
This is ******, apple have surely f**ked up here. It's never had a hitch, ever, since i bought it 9 months ago.
We are all reporting the same thing - software update, and then no working external display...

I seem to have found a fix for myself. I was having terrible issues with the screen blinking and flickering constantly. I tried to reset the SMC with everything unplugged and the computer would not reboot at that point on it's own which led me eventually to reinstalling SL.
Reinstalling SL is quite painless actually as it installs on top of your profile. After reinstalling I ran software update which installs the cumulative upgrades. Now I usually don't have any problems but must follow the instructions to run in clamshell mode to the letter.
After a week of running in clamshell mode I started having an issue with the dock not lining up so I put the computer to sleep, disconnected the monitor and restarted with nothing connected. After that, followed the clamshell mode instructions again and have been working fine again all week.
I've also disabled my screen-saver, and deleted the windowserver preferences as part of my debug process but not sure if that has contributed to my new found stability.

Me too. I have a MacBook Pro 2,2 running the latest Snow Leopard 10.6.2. After I have installed yesterday's security patch it does not recognize external displays on the DVI port any longer. Tried it with a 23" DELL at the office and a 23" Samsung at home. Both have worked without any problems for years.
I am curious to learn how this behavior is related to security...

Final Cut Pro 2nd monitor not working properly?

Been here before a long time ago, can't remember how it was resolved.
Working in a new edit suite, FCP Studio. Two new Samsung monitors (not my choice). I want one to be my playback monitor.
I set:
Final Cut Pro > Audio/Video Settings
> Digital Cinema Desktop Full Screen
> View > External Video > All Frames
But all I'm getting is a black frame on the 2nd monitor.
They've also got one of those very flat alluminum keyboards ... where F12 becomes a sound control. I'd love to know how I can change the function key to work as an FCP action / 2nd monitor toggling on and off.
That's two questions. Would be most appreciative of an answer for either.
Ben

Hey Andy,
I did the first half of your suggestion, but not the second half. Heading down to the studio this morning ... set up in a tiny white chapel looking out across the silvery North Atlantic ... and will try the second half of your suggestion. Will also see if there are two graphics cards installed in the Mac Pro. Will also check out the Window > Arrange in FCP (something I should have checked first off).
I talked to a filmmaker who previously worked on the system, only to discover he never uses the second monitor as a full screen, but rather as a large 'bin'. Interesting.
If worse comes to worse and I can't solve it I suspect I could size the canvas window to super large and drag it over to the second monitor.
Will post back when I've tried the latest suggestions ...
Thanks you mucho guys,
Ben

My iphone 5 is not powering the scree, when i connect the iphone to the power it only vibrates

my iphone 5 is not powering the scree, when i connect the iphone to the power it only vibrates o make the connect sound (is like the sound when you connect the phone to power) and the screen remains black, itunes recognizes the iphone, but i cannot do a hard reset because the power button does not work, and have password in my phone so itunes wond restore it. i want to know if is a hardware problem like the mother board o something. help please

If you have iOS 7 installed, you can try to restore it via the instructions given by lllaass in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5634135
As an alternative, you could take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs test it and see what is wrong beyond the failed power button.

Copying iMovie back to tape: "your firewire camera is not powered on"

I'm trying to follow iMovie 6 instructions for copying a movie back to tape.
I connected my camcorder to the computer with the firewire cable, and it shows up in the Share-->Video Camera menu as an attached device. (It's a Canon Elura 100, btw.)
So all seems well until I start the procedure, and then I get a "Cannot Export to Camera" error message that says "your firewire camera is not powered on or is not available."
My ever so slow brain thinks this might have something to do with the fact that I'm using the DV/firewire cable that I used to import the footage into my iMac, and maybe it only sends stuff OUT the firewire end, and won't send video the other way?
Do I need a different kind of firewire cable?

Thanks for your assistance!
I bought this camcorder from Amazon.com (USA) and I have not daisy-chained it anywhere. I've only connected it to one device at a time. It is capable of receiving digital as well as analog video, and can convert analog to digital.
For example, I used my stereo-video cable to transfer footage from an old VHS tape played by our VCR to my Canon Elura camcorder via the Canon's AV terminal.
Once the tape was safely transferred into my Canon camcorder, I then plugged my DV/firewire cable into the Canon's DV terminal, and the firewire end of it into the iMac. iMovie saw the Canon camcorder and imported all the footage very nicely.
Now I would like to transfer the edited footage from iMovie back to a mini DV tape, and my iMovie help file says I can do it, but it's a little sketchy on what cables I should be using.
The firewire/DV cable I used to send the footage IN to iMovie isn't working to receive the edited footage OUT of iMovie. So maybe I need a different kind of firewire cable?
Thanks for any help you can offer!

Hi,
You cant print to a printer that you physicly turned off. Most network printer have a sleep mode, so leave it on and after a while it should go into a sleepmode. And should wake up when a printjob is being sent.

BT Infinity Usage Monitor not updating.....hmmm???

This happens at the end of every month. I'm starting to think it is an actual ploy from BT to stop users from knowing how much broadband usage they have left? The usage monitor normally starts acting up around the 25th of every month....then you get an odd day where it works then it then it stops updating completely. This leaves a BT user in a vunerable position.
A, Scared of using Internet - Not wanting a penalty charge by going over your limit!
B, Not allowing the BT user to use their full amount of data that they are paying for = saving BT money = ripping us off!!!
SORT IT OUT BT.......IT'S JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
