My Philips hdtv plasma wont display my pb

Please help. I had a regular hdtv before and never had problems. I have pluged to my 12" mini-dv adaptor, pluged to that is the DVI. Now at the other end of the DVI, I have a HDMI adaptor. My tv just stays black.
I Called philips and they said try changing your refresh rate to 60. Problem is, my refresh rate is grayed out and has n/a and doesnt let me chnage it. And I only have 3 resolution choices.
Has anyone heard of these problems?

Daddydesign:
Hi again - so glad to hear you figured it out.
I bought a Monster cable from Apple called iTVlink for powerbook 12",
which has two connections to the PB, one for video and one for audio, and the other end connects to the TV with three inputs; two for audio and one for S-video. As my TV is not so modern, I also bought a scart adapter. This setup gives me audio and picture. If you call an Apple store near you, they are usually extremely helpful in giving you advice as to what you need for your various setups. Good luck again!

  • Mini-DVI to HDMI output to Philips HDTV not working with Yosemite

    I've recently upgraded to the Yosemite OS, and was surprised to find out that the output to my Philips HDTV no longer works. I have a Mini-DVI to HDMI converter, which I then plug into the TV. Before the upgrade everything worked fine (I think I was running 10.7), however now it just says "Video format not supported". I've tried every video format too...nothing seems to work anymore. With my friend's Windows laptop direct output via the HDMI port to the TV works fine, so it's not a hardware issue.
    The Philips TV is an 8000 Series HDTV and I've already checked for the latest updates, but it says the software is up-to-date.
    Anyone have a similar problem or know of any solutions???
    Thanks in advance!

    I would contact Phillips and see if they have a solution.
    Ciao.

  • MBP wont display 1080p on monitor any more

    I have an early 2011 Macbook pro and a hp 2511x monitor. The setup worked flawlessly before I went off to school. Now that Im back home my macbook wont display 1080p on the monitor, only 720p. While attempting to display 1080p the monitor screen is blank but I am able to move my mouse over to the external dispaly just fine, just no picture. My mac will display 1080p on other external monitors & the monitor will work fine with other computers or xbox on 1080p.
    Just upgraded from 10.7 to 10.9 and still not working properly.
    Connecting from mini display to hdmi

  • Pdfs wont display in firefox

    Hi,
    PDFs on my system work fine. They display in IE no problem.
    In adobe reader, I've set the pdf to open in a separate window by unchecking the "display in browser check box"
    After no luck with the firefox options Ive downloaded the add-on "pdf-download" and set it to display\open pdfs in a new window, but this still doesn't work - I get "the adobe acrobat reader that is running cannot be used to view pdf files in a web browser...try again"
    I had some luck getting this to work by giving the user admin rights, but have failed to find a good consistent solution.
    any ideas are much appreciated.
    thanks
    Dan

    I found the solution firefox wont display the image if the image location doesn't start with web application image folder root.
    So Instead of C:/Images/image.jpg it should be:
    Inside TOMCAT/WebApp/WebApplication it should be:
    /images/image.jpg instead.

  • Will display usps labels in paypal but wont display international labels

    when I use usps labels in paypal the domestic labels display and I have no problems, but when I ship international labels it wont display its just blank, I can do both in safari but now paypal dose not support safari and I'm always getting errors, I want to continue using firefox but I cant figure out how to get the international labels to display

    I think I've had similar stuff happen to me before. When Java updates it doesn't get rid of the old version; it just installs the newer version. There can sometimes be problems with Java using an older version and not the newest version, or there can be problems with Java getting mixed up due to the different versions; I think the latter problem is the one you are experiencing.
    Try going to wherever you have Java installed (c:/program files/java or wherever) and deleting the older version(s).

  • Zen vision :M wont display anything when on & computer cannot recogn

    my?zen vision :M wont display anything when?i turn it on & my computer cannot recognise it... no my lcd isnt imploded or damaged...
    p.s. the buttons wont even glow when on plz help

    Are you sure it's turning on? If the display isn't turning on and the buttons don't light up, it sounds like the player isn't powering on at all. Do you hear it playing music?
    Have you tried leaving the player charging for a few hours, and then checking if it starts up on the PC? When it's turned on, does the system recognise it at all, does it see an unknown device for instance?

  • JSP Images wont display in firefox?

    Hi,

  • My iPhoto wont display and i cant upload pics or even look at my library. how can i fix this?

    My iPhoto wont display and i cant upload pics or even look at my library. how can i fix this?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see in the iPhoto window when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    Come on.  Give us something to work with here.

  • No Red or Green Colors On Philips HDTV

    I have my mini hooked up DVI-HDMI on my philips HDTV...and all my colors are gone except for the blue, black and white it seems. They are all very faded at that, but red and green specifcly are non-existant. I dont think it's any of the T.V.s settings because all the other inputs/channles look fine. Any help? also, a way to get a resolution that isnt a default on the list would be much appreciated

    I never used HDMI, however I would check the cable at first.
    Regarding non standard resolutions, there are a couple of utilities for doing that, one of which is called SwitchResX.

  • The image on my mac wont display on the tv with the firewire

    the image on my mac wont display on the tv with the firewire

    There's no such thing a a FireWire to HDMI converter. Do you mean Mini DisplayPort?
    Are you trying to extend your desktop onto the TV or mirror it? Have you gone to System Preferences, Displays, and either clicked the Mirror Displays option, or used the Arrangement tab to move the two screens into the correct alignment? There should also be a Detect Displays button somewhere in the Displays panel.
