My thunderbolt port seems broken - have to re insert on startup every time

Just bought neew Mac Mini. Using Thunderbolt to VGA adaptor from Apple. But every time I start up, I am getting a 'no input' message on my monitor and only by pulling out the cable from the thunderbolt port and re inserting do I get a resoloution.
Anyone else had simular?

Hi Skelbob, I have a similar problem whenever I restart or shut down my Mac Mini using the same adapter.  The only difference in my case is that I do get display but it has a slight vertical wavy distortion which goes away if I unplug and re plug the thunderbolt connection.  There is no problem using an HDMI connection, but the graphic resolution is not as good as the VGA.  I have a very high spec Mini and I am not pleased about this, but have founf no solution to it.  Let me know if you have any success.

  • In fcp7 there is a "close gap" option so you don't have to highlight and move everything every time you delete a small section in the middle of a video. Is it possible to do this in fcpx? I can't seem to find it...Thanks!

    This isn't the actual clip, I fixed it by highlighting and moving everything over but it'd still be a good thing to know for the future. This is essentially the situation i'm talking about. I would never use it for something this simple, but when more complicated editing is being done it isn't so easy to just move all the clips over.

  • TS2446 i have a problem in my account every time i want to install application from app Store on my iphone a message shows that my Apple ID has been disabled, what is the problem? what can i do ?

    i have a problem in my account every time i want to install application from app Store on my iphone a message shows that my Apple ID has been disabled, i creat a new password and still that message shoes ,what is the problem ?can you help me please???!!!!

    If your account is disabled then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    It's simple... I want the Illustrator pen tool to ALWAYS make corner annchor points and NEVER smooth.  Right now I have to convert every single one of them, or I have to do a work around every time I draw a line and make one of the handles disappear.  Is there some simple setting out there that will just "make it so?"@

    The video I am watching this guy is just dragging every line to make curves.  And every anchor point is a corner.  He is not switching back and forth between the pen and the anchor points tool, and he is not using the convert points tool.  He draws a curved line and starts another straight line only to curve it with a click and a drag.  It is super efficient, and I could save a world of time if I could figure out what he is doing.

  • In OS X Mavericks using Safari, the search bar at the top that i had on the previous system disappears only reappearing in the full screen. Do i have to go into full screen every time? Bit of a pain but no doubt I'm doing something wrong!

    Those are all fine
    Here is how to see RAM overloaded…
    Reboot to see the system in it's default state.
    Open TextEdit for the sake of it
    Open Activity Monitor & Terminal from /Applications/Utilities.
    Select the Memory tab
    In Terminal enter the following command
    memory_pressure -l critical
    # note that is a lowercase L
    RAM usage will climb, compression will begin the VM will become way more than the system has installed.
    Eventually the system will start swapping  (look for RED) - Watch the 'memory pressure' & 'Swap used' as this happens.
    Try switching to TextEdit - the system is still coping !
    Switch back to Terminal & hit ctrl+c to stop the process.
    Watch the VM & memory pressure return to normal levels.
    This OS kicks 4ss !
    Your problems may lie elsewhere

  • Why do I have to repeat the installation process every time I turn on my PC?

    Why do I have to repeat the installation process every time I turn on my PC?

    Why do I have to repeat the installation process every time I turn on my PC?
    Because you never run the install of whatever program you are referring to with sufficient user privileges and it thus never "sticks". Run as admin, turn of security tools, let the install finish properly. If you need more guidance, provide system info and tell us what program you actualyl mean.

    You might give VueScan a try. It should work with your scanner. There's a demo version that you can use initially.

  • HT204053 Do I  always have to put in my password every time I purchase/download an app?

    I only have the 1 iOS, the new iPad. I don't use or sync other devices. Can I somehow disable that so I don't have to write in my pw EVERY time I download something new!? It's kind of annoying. Lol I'm using the same device every time, it should remember me! Thanks for help.  

    Not sure exactly how long it is, but yes you get a period of time before you need to re-enter your password. So far as the security questions are concerned, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to Password and security.

  • Have to reboot my airport extreme every time i restart my PC.

    Hello,
    Why is it that i have to reboot my Airport Extreme every time i restart my PC? I am able to connect to the network but not the internet, unless/until i restart my base station.
    My phones and tablets are connected to the internet, so i know the my ISP is not the issue.

    It is impossible to work this out without lots of details.
    Like what PC OS do you run?
    What connection, wireless or ethernet?
    What you use test with the other if possible. Does it work for example swapping from wireless to ethernet??
    I presume wireless as it is the most trouble prone.. When you start the PC does the wireless connect? Do you get IP by DHCP .. if so does it match what you get after a reboot.. look particularly at dns and gateway addresses.
    Is the PC showing location as home or work/public.. it must be home to work properly.. also firewall might matter.
    Also what type of wireless card is used.. poor windows drivers abound.. particularly Intel cards in laptops.
    Is the wireless name SMB compliant.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric?
    Is the wireless password mix of only case and numbers.. nothing non-alphanumeric?

  • HT201493 Do I have to enter my apple ID every time I open Find My Friends? Annoying

    Do I have to enter my apple ID every time I open Find My Friends? Annoying

    Are you talking the app store on the iPhone?
    If you are, it has to do with control of getting the updates and control of downloading new software.  Sometimes there will be an update when someone won't want an update.  Requiring the password would give someone better control over what gets installed.  Or if there's new software, it will give a parent, for example, better control over what gets purchased or even just downloaded, in the case of a free app.
    I'm not an Apple employee, but I'm pretty sure Apple doesn't consider it a problem.  They tend to err on the side of caution, especially when money is involved.  Requiring the apple id password every time definitely does that.

    Could you do the following please.
    Click "Start" and then in the search box at the bottom of the menu, type: CMD
    When you get the link, right click it and choose "Run As Administrator".
    At the prompt, type CD\ and hit Enter. This will take you to the root.
    Next, type: net user administrator /active:yes and hit Enter to enable the hidden Administrator account.
    Type: EXIT to close the command prompt. 
    Reboot the machine and you'll see an additional logon option called Administrator. Choose that and then hit Enter to boot to the desktop (the Aministrator account doesn't have a password by default).
    Disable your antivirus to prevent it interfering with the installation. If you have AVAST antivirus, right click the orange icon in systray, go to Avast Shields Control and disable all shields for 1 hour. Otherwise consult this list for instructions on how to disable it: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html
    Next, download Flash for Internet Explorer from here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax_64bit.exe
    When you see the prompt, click "Run" to install it immediately.
    After the installation completes, open a command prompt again and type: net user administrator /active:no to disable the Administrator account.
    Reboot the machine and then open Internet Explorer.
    Click "Tools", then "Manage Add-ons".
    In the dropdown menu on the left near the bottom (see screenshot), choose "Run without permission".
    Scroll down to "Adobe Systems Incorporated" and verify that "Shockwave Flash Object" is installed and enabled. If it's present, but disabled, click the "Enable" button bottom left of that menu.
    Finally, re-enable you antivirus and reboot again. Check the "Manage Add-ons" menu to verify that Flash is still present.

  • I have a new MacBook Pro and every time I open Safari it locks up???

    I have a new MacBook Pro and every time I open Safari it locks up???

    Okay, then you have made a whole bunch of trouble for yourself. First, download and run this:
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    and then you can manually remove as many bits of PSE as you can find. Not only the application itself, but also in hard drive>library>application support>adobe. And go to your username>library>preferences and delete everything there pertaining to PSE. That library is hidden. To see it, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account.
    Then go here to download the installer and install it from scratch. You can never move an installed copy of PSE (except for the app store version):
    Download Photoshop Elements products | 9, 8, 7
