Monster iTV Link for 13-inch MacBook and 12-inch PowerBook

Does anyone knows or the Monster iTV Link for 13-inch MacBook and 12-inch PowerBook even work with the imac intel-based mini-dvi port?

I went with the crucial 512 SSD.  It will push your budget just a tiny bit more as with tax and shipping it came to about $834 but oh man what a difference this makes!  My MBP sprang to life with this SDD... Everything simply pops open instantly.
www.crucial.com
On transferring, I suggest the following: 
Get a copy of SuperDuper
Buy an external case for your internal drive.
Install SuperDuper on your current HD (before swapping)
Perform the HD/SSD swap, so your SSD is in the MBP, your HD is now in the external case.
Plug in the external HD and power up holding down option.  You should be presented with a choice of boot drives (DVD and your external).  Boot off your external.   Once OS is loaded, use Disk Utility to format and initialize your SSD.  BECAREFUL that you initialize the SSD and NOT the external HD!!!
Now run SuperDuper, clone from the external to the internal SSD.  It might take an hour or so to do this.  When complete.  Power down, disconnect the external and reboot.  If you've done everything right your computer should come up on the SSD but basically will look exactly like your old drive.
You're good to go.  Use it a few days and make sure everything is good, then you can format your external and use it for general purpose storage!
I'm not sure this will work on the 13" but these guys:  www.mcetech.com make a bracket that you can remove your internal DVD and install your old HD inside.  This way you have your SSD + your old HD installed at all times.  You move your DVD to an external case.  I did this in my MBP 15 so now I have basically a 1 TB laptop.  My main drive is the SSD but for storage of stuff I don't use all the time I have the HD which is also 512gb.  Pretty cool.  For me I didn't use the internal DVD that much so having it in an external case was just fine.

  • Monster iTV Link for Macbook- Mini-DVI ports different...

    I have been watching movies etc. on my TV through my 14" G4 iBook for the last year using the Monster iTV Link with the mini-DVI end. I recently bought a Macbook and expected to do the same with it, but the mini-DVI ports are a different shape!
    I have scoured the internet for some information on different mini-DVI ports but have come up short. Can someone explain why Apple would install a different mini-DVI port on the Macbook? Or not install an S-video?
    Regardless of why they did this, I now need a new adapter or Monster needs to make a new iTV Link cable for Macbook. Has anyone seen an iTV link for Macbook? Is there one out there I can use?
    I am assuming my other option is to buy the mini-DVI to video adapter, use the audio part of the Monster cable I currently have and get a S-Video cable. However before I acquire more cables and adapters...
    Can someone confirm that the the Mini-DVI end of the Mini-DVI to Video adapter is the correct shape (version) for the MacBook.
    THANKS

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    It would appear the Monster guy is confused what cable you got. The iTV cable I bought up on Google has the standard round-din S-Video connector found on 15" and 17" Powerbook G4s of the same generation, but I don't think that is found on the 12" Powerbook. What you need is a DVI to S-Video connector to hook up the iTV cable from all indications.
    This may be what you are looking for:

  • Monster ITV Link

  • IPhone 32 GB 3GS TV output with Monster iTV Link

    I have used my Monster iTV Link cable http://www.monstercable.com/productdisplay.asp?pin=3897 to connect my 80GB 5th generation ipod (through the dock port on the bottom) to my Chevy Avalance's AUX Video input via left, right audio and video plug. When using my old ipod and selecting a video it will automatically ask for "TV out" on or off. I switch it to "TV on" and my ipod plays through the cable into my AUX Video input with great video and audio quality in my vehicle. I tried the exact same thing using my new iphone 32GB 3GS and nothing happens. It does not ask to select "TV on" It plays through the iPhone speakers as if it wasn't connected to anything.
    When using the mini jack input from my 5th generation iPod and my new iPhone 3GS into the vehicle AUX audio jack input the result is the same. Both play through the vehicle speakers. However, the mini jack audio quality is noticeably inferior to the dock port on the bottom of the devices.
    Why don't both play through the AUX video input?
    I tried changing the settings in my iPhone (NTSC & PAL) with no luck?
    The website for Monster says the cable is for "iPod Video" is it possible the cable is not iPhone compatible?
    How do I get my new iPhone to play through the bottom dock port to my left right audio, video, input?

    Older video cables are not compatible with the iPhone. The Apple A/V cables are:

  • Using Monster iTV Link to connect to 42" Plasma

    I have a 12' G4 iBook bought in October 2003.
    I want to use the Monster iTV Link cable to play DVDs from te iBook and display them through my Panasonic Viera 42" Plasma TV.
    Are there any issues I should be aware of, or is this a straightforward
    process?
    Any advice at all would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Kieran

    Check out the resolution of your plasma. As i can assume it is wide screen... Also try to connect it via regular monitor cable. Besides this adapter goes with your laptop. It will be much better. DO NOT FORGET THAT YOUR iBook IN STANDARD MODE COULD WORK WITH EXTERNAL TV OR MONITOR IN MIRRORING MODE ONLY. To unlock possibility to work in extended desktop mode you could use SSD (Screen Spanning doctor). Suggesting you to use it as resolution of your laptop monitor and plasma is different.
    Ask if something is not clear.

    Also the search program doesn't find previous version downloads.

  • I am using an early 13 inch MacBook and have kept it going for five years without problems. The hard drive is getting unreliable and needs changing. How large a hard drive can I replace it with?

    Sorry for the long title, this is the first time I have used this place.
    The local Mac engineering support in Jamaica is a small shop in town. They told me I could go up to 750 gig, which appeals to me as I use this for my business. And oldie but goodie this Mac. It is upgraded in memory to 4 gig and is operating on Lion Server.
    Recently I have been getting disk errors, which indicates the drive is getting too old and may fail soon.
    So, before I buy I figured asking what the truth is. 750 gig? Really?

    Physically, the limitation is the 9.5mm drive thickess. AFAIK, most if not all 750GB HDDs have that thickess. The next size, 1TB, has the issue that many of the brands are 12.5mm thick and won't fit, but you may get lucky and find a "thin" model in this size.
    Other thing to watch is the speed. 7200 vs. 5400 RPM is attractive, but the faster disks will run a tad hotter, which can be an issue in a single-fan 13"
    Lastly, noise. Compare the noise ratings as published in the spec sheets. Western Digital disks, for example, are usually noisier than other brands. Perfectly nornal and does not detract in performance or longevity, but having the thing buzz at you while trying to catch a quick email check at night or watch a subdued movie may be annoying.
    When you do decide and get down to doing the deed, be sure to get one of those cans of compressed air or "dusters" and thoroughly clean out the guts of the Mac. Especially around the blades of the fan, where dust tends to stick and degrade the cooling capacity of the component.

  • Monster iTV Link Cable

    hey there all,
    just been reading some posts & thought i'd pass this along. i've been using a Monster Cable to connect my MacBook to my Olevia 26" 16:9 LCD HD monitor/TV. it's the iTV Link cable for the old 12" PowerBook, which also had video out over a mini-DVI connector. the cable is 10 feet long, has a mini-DVI + 1/8" stereo plug on the Mac end & an S-Video + 2 RCA plugs on the TV end. i've set my MacBook for extended desktop & use the external monitor w/ Final Cut Express to display the Canvas. i know it's not the greatest for "real serious work" but to be able to be in bed & work on a project from an external FW hard drive as opposed to going downstairs & firing up the "Big Mac" it's pretty cool, also for watching a DVD on the bigger screen. & once i set the extended desktop it's easier to work in FCE as opposed to sending signal over firewire to my cam/deck then to a TV, because the MacBook sees the TV as 2nd computer display(it shows the desktop wallpaper). the TV is set as follows: resolution 1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz(NTSC), millions of colors. the TV is also set @ fullscreen from it's menu. the MacBook is set @ max native resolution 1280 x 800, millions of colors.
    i got 2 cables from CompUSA($15.00/ea.) less than 1/2 the original list price. probably because there are no more 12" P'Books & they think they have no market for them & want to get 'em out of inventory. iTV Link cable might also work for MacBook presentations using a Projector.
    hope this helps someone.

  • Type of battery -- mid 2010 13-inch macbook; and how soon do I need to replace dead battery?

    I'm trying to replace the battery on my mid 2010 13-inch Macbook. I'm not sure what kind of battery I need to get, and can't seem to find any indication in "System Information". It's a "MacBook7,1" with Intel Core 2 Duo and Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz. I found this battery on amazon: "Apple MacBook Pro 13 Inch Mid 2010 Battery 60Wh, 5500mAh". Will it work? Do I need to get one with a particular power capacity, or anything like that?
    I'm also wondering how quickly I need to get the problem fixed. My computer stopped working yesterday unless plugged into a power source. I don't really want to send it away to get it fixed, as I have a lot of work I need to do on it over the course of the next week. If I buy a battery online, wait for it to arrive, and install it (a process that will probably take at least 4-5 days), will I be leaving it too long? Or is it OK to continue just running my computer off the mains for now?
    Thanks!

    PS: here's some other info I found, after my earlier post timed-out:
    See how a determined DIY user with some skills & abilities could dissect & replace battery:
    https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Unibody+Model+A1342+Battery+Replacement/166 7
    Example of what new replacement battery looks like, for your Mac; w/ part number:
    http://www.battery-center.net/apple-macbook-unibody-13-battery.html
    Find an Apple Authorized Service Provider
    Visit an Apple Retail Store
    An Apple Store or Authorized Apple service provider could replace the battery
    for the cost of the part, and a fee for the tech time. This may vary by location.
    Hopefully this helps. The part is not considered 'user replaceable' but it is possible.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Which laptop is best suitable for me? Macbook Air 11 inch, Macbook Air 13 inch, or Macbook Pro 13 inch?

    I'm an 8th grader who does powerpoints, word documents, web browsing and light gaming, light movie editing on imovie, some ichat and some apps. Should I get a macbook air 11 inch 256gb and 8gb of ram, macbook air 13 inch 128gb and 8gb of ram or macbook pro 13 inch 8gb of ram 500gb hard drive?. Which one is most suitable for me? I need it to last 4-5 years.

    Strictly speaking, the size of the screen has nothing to do with a decision to install Windows on any Mac. It should work with the base 13" MBP, even with just 4GB ram.
    But it is more complex than to just "install windows"; first, you have to buy a copy of Windows. Any copies you have, even if on DVD, will not work (because the OS contains proprietary code based on the model and manufacturer of your Windows laptop.) Then you have to decide if you want a dual boot (meaning setting up another partition on the HD that holds only the Windows OS and files), or purchase Parallels, which you install as Apple software, then install windows "into" Parallels. If you use dual boot, you can only switch from one OS to the other by way of shutting down and re-booting. If you use Parallels, you can jump from one OS to the other just like switching to different programs in the Mac OS. Parallels runs under $40 these days, and MS Windows 7 Home Premium is ~$165 (both on Amazon).
    There are often business or academic reasons to have Win7 on a Mac, but each person should seriously consider whether buying a Mac so that you can install Windows is a sound decision. I mean, why bother with the Mac?  I first thought I would have to install Windows on my Mac, but found Mac versions of my critical programs, and learned how to use the many programs the Mac OS already provides to get the same, and often improved functionality over what I had with Windows.
    I know you will have a tough decision to make about this. And you are spending a great deal of money for an 8th grader (and for a lot of other people too). It's important to weigh all the factors, decide on your choice, and then make the purchase without having any doubts about your decision. Have confidence in your purchase, and move forward from there.
    One final note; I bought my first Mac machine only about 9 months ago. I've bought two more since then. And for each one, I bought the AppleCare warranty and have never regretted it. I won't know if I need it for repairs in a year or two, but just having an ability to call Apple at nearly any time, and have programs, functionality and OS behavior explained to me gives me real peace of mind. I may have to call AppleCare more than once to get a good answer, but in the end, the service has always come through for me. I suggest you consider this strongly.
    I hope my lengthy replies have been helpful; you've got a great treat ahead of you once you make the purchase!

  • Use one iTunes Library for both my MacBook and Mac Mini

    Hi,
    I want to make a few changes in my configuration, but before something will go terribly wrong, I want to make sure I use the correct approach.
    Yesterday I got a and on an older Mac Mini Model (G4 - only 40GB hard disc). It runs Leopard. It does not have Wifi, but it is connected to my modem/router.
    I also have a MacBook. Currently I have my iTunes Library on an external HD (WD mypassport 320GB) that I hook up to my MacBook when playing music and syncing my iPhone and iPod.
    However; I want to use the Mac Mini as a 'Mediacenter' (Big term, because it cannot play HD movies (processor is too old; I mean I want to use it for iTunes and as a DVD player). I have another external HD (Lacie - 500 GB; bigger than the one first mentioned, but this one is not a mobile device). I want to hook this HD to the Mac Mini and put my iTunes Library on this HD so it can be approached through the Mac Mini. Subsequently I want to approach the same library on my Mac Mini on my Macbook…This to control and manage the iTunes library and to keep syncing my iPhone through my Macbook (this is easier to do, because the Macbook has a Keyboard….)
    Few questions;
    1: is this even possible?
    2: to transfer my library I will use this method http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751?viewlocale=en_US
    First copy the library from the WD HD to the Lacie HD; then choose the library on the Lacie in iTunes on the Mac Mini
    Then I will have my iTunes Library copied to the Lacie and connected to my Mac Mini.
    Then for the second and 'harder part'. The Sharing of one Library over two Macs.
    I think I can use the homesharing option. The above mentioned method transferred the whole current library and I can choose the option to automatically transfer new content from my MacBook to the Mini (correct?). But this leaves me with two libraries with the same content (one on the Mini (Lacie) and one on the Macbook (WD).
    Is it possible to use only one library (the one on the Mini) and approach and manage it on my Macbook and also syncing my iPhone through my Macbook? I understand that it will loose some speed as the data will be transferred through Wifi from the Mac Mini to the MacBook. But as I will not listen to the music on my MacBook, but only will use it to manage the library, I can handle this….

    I managed to transfer all music, movies and tv shows to the External HD (Lacie) and connected that one to the Mini. Then imported all files to the library on the mini. Quite easy!
    The second part I left out. It seems the home sharing option works fine for now. I can still 'manage'the library on the mini from my Macbook with the 'share screen' option.

  • Table Link for EQUNR (Eqpt Number) and GEWRK (Main Work Center)

    Hello,
    I need to fetch the main work center from equipment master. I need a direct table link between the equipment number and mainwork center. We are getting a link of equipment number (EQUNR) to work center (ARBPL) and a link of work center (ARBPL) to main work center (GEWRK). But the problem with this scenario is - main work center is not getting fetched from equipment master once work center is missing.
    We want a direct link through some table between EQUNR and GEWRK.
    Puneet

    Hi Puneet,
    Appreciate your problem !
    Many a times in such a situation (which I presume exists where no direct link is available between fields); we have 2 clear cut approaches -
    Approach 1:
    Develop a SAP Query, Functional Area/Infoset, and User Group ( using T code :SQ03,SQ02,SQ01 respectively )
    While developing Functional Area feed in these 2 tables (Table 1- equipment number (EQUNR) & work center (ARBPL) and Table 2 - work center (ARBPL) to main work center (GEWRK) with  work center (ARBPL) as the Primary Key- bridge to join these 2 tables.
    In SAP Query Development; you may take Plant as the Selection Field or any other field as per business requirement to make a search in the query.
    Now when you execute this query, you will get a complete Download of (EQUNR),work center (ARBPL)  and main work center (GEWRK) in one table.
    For SAP Query, you may also approach your ABAP Team Member. This is a cleaner approach than the other one.
    Approach 2:
    Take SE16 download of the Table 1 and Table 2 and join them in Excel (using vlookup if required).This approach is however limited to the data volume that you have to process.
    Please let me know, if you get stuck !
    Thanks,
    RAVI.
