Need help.Bought an HDMI-miniVideo Ad/20ftHDMItoHDMI for tv

How do I view my internet on my MacBookPro on my large screen Panasonic TV. I have done it with Cox in San Diego but have relocated to Iowa and have a non internet TV. I connected my laptop to Direct TV (using a wify tower and cable 100 foot in electrical PVC to Direct TV Box. In SanDiego I just connect HDMI to my Sony Bravia and have both internet and ability to set up Netflix. I am trying to accomlish watch Netflix on my computer by mirroring it to Panasonic screen/ The tv has only one extra HDMI input. That is where I connected my video from my laptop with the miniAdapter.  I thought I should set up mirroring like I did in the old days with my g4 laptop when I connected to TV with an s connector and 20 foot cable. This is connected but error message that Direct TV is not programmed to video 2.  I guess there is no way to choose HDMI. It asks me to program  a vcr, DVD, or other service like Netflix . I would appreciate any help . I have been without internet for three weeks. Uggggh. So now am trying to set up computer with two screens. the second being my big screen tv.  Would like to share emails, photos etc with 90 year old mother who could see print enlarged on bigger screen. 

First of all you have to connect both devices (notebook and TV) with an HDMI cable.
Then power on the TV and the notebook.
In the TV settings choose the HDMI input port where the notebook has been connected.
Now you can use the function key F4 (or Fn + F4) in order to switch to the external video output which in your case should be the TV device.

  • HOW TO?: Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

    Need help setting up 3 different iCloud accounts for my kids (so each has own iMessanger)using same Apple ID (mine) ....they don't have their own separate email addresses to work from...how do I do this?

    Any devices connected to the same icloud account can sync all the data on that account.  For this reason an icloud account is really for a single user.
    On a mac, if each user has their own account, then the itunes for that mac account should be set up to connect to that user's icloud account (System preferences>icloud).

  • Need help using WEB module in Lightroom 2 for .mac/mobile me accounts

    Hello,
    I need help in finding the Server path information for Lightroom 2.  I am trying to use the Web module of Lightroom and build a website and instead of going through another hosting service, I want to use my Mobile ME account, can't I do that?
    I have the user name and password obviously but what is the server path, protocol, path?
    Help please!
    Thanks
    Ray

    For those Mac Users using iWeb, MobileMe, and Lightroom 2, here are step-by-step instructions on how to create a web gallery in Lightroom, upload the gallery to MobileMe, and finally, how to link the uploaded files to the wesite you created in iWeb.
    1. In the Lightroom Library module, create a collection of photos you want to display in your web gallery.  For illustration purposes, we will call your collection Sunsets.  Once created, it will be listed under Collections in the left panel of Lightroom.
    2. Switch to the Lightroom Web module and select the Sunsets collection (from the panel on the left of the screen.)
    3. Chose whichever template you like (from the list of Templates in the left panel).
    4. Fine tune the appearance of the gallery using the controls in the right hand panel of Lightroom 2.
    5. When you are satisfied with the gallery’s appearance, use your keyboard to type Command-S.  That will save your template settings (give it a unique name when saving).
    6. Open up Finder on your Mac.  Inside your username folder, create a new folder… I'll call it Web Files.  (You can choose any name you like, and locate the file anywhere on your Mac HD.)  You have just created the folder username/Web Files.
    7. Back in the Lightroom Web module, chose Export, at the bottom of the right panel, and export your gallery to the folder you just made (e.g. export to username/Web Files).  By doing so, you will have created /username/Web Files/Sunsets.
    8. Once again open Finder on your Mac.  Go to /username/Web Files/Sunsets and you will see 3 files in the Sunsets folder: bin, index.html, and resources.
    9. Open a second Finder window and in it, click on your iDisk icon.  You will soon see all of the files on your iDisk.
    10. In iDisk, click on the folder called /Web.  You will now see the /Sites folder inside the /Web folder.  I.e., /Web/Sites.
    11. Drag the Sunsets file from your Mac HD to the /Sites folder on your iDisk.  E.g, drag Sunsets from /username/Web Files/Sunsets on your Mac HD to the /Sites folder in iDisk /Web/Sites.  The Sunsets folder (and the three files it contains) will now upload to your iDisk on MobileMe.
    12. Open iWeb on your Mac. Add a new page to your website.  Call it “Galleries,” or anything you like. (You can also use an existing page if you wish.)
    13.  On that “Galleries” web page (or on an existing web page), create a picture icon, or a word, or a symbol, or anything else that you will activate as a hyperlink to your iDisk web files - specifically, you will link it to the Sunsets folder you just uploaded to iDisk.
    14. Activate the hyperlink in iWeb’s Inspector.  In the URL box, type:
    http://web.me.com/username/Sunsets  (Don’t forget to substitute your name for “username” and the name of your gallery for “Sunsets.”)
    15. Save your website in iWeb, and then publish your site.
    You will NOT see your gallery in iWeb – you will see only the link to the gallery that you uploaded to iDisk..  To view your gallery, either make hyperlinks active, using the Inspector in iWeb and click on he link to the gallery, or visit your website on the internet.  If you want to edit your gallery, you will have to do that in Lightroom… then repeat steps 7 – 11.  You cannot edit your gallery in iWeb, but you can use iWeb to change the appearance of the link to your gallery, or to change it’s location within your website.

  • I need help exporting Apple Mail messages to Outlook for MAC 2011

    Good morning,
    I need help exporting Apple Mail messages to Outlook for MAC 2011. Please....

    It is possible to do this without external tools, but it is a tremendous faff. See
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macoutlook/import-ema il-from-mail-to-outlook-2011/5e858173-e1f4-4adc-99d7-253cc467169d?page=2 for details.
    The easiest way, however, is to use Mail Exporter Pro https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mail-exporter-pro/id675131616?mt=12 which will convert the email for you from one format to the other, and comes with an excellent manual.
    A third possibility is to connect Apple Mail to an email account via IMAP (this doesn’t have to be your usual account, you can just create a Gmail account for the purpose) . Copy all the messages into it and they will be uploaded. Then connect Outlook 2011 to the same account, via IMAP again, and let the messages download, then copy them to wherever you want to keep them and disconnect from that account. This is slow but preserves the attributes of your email (e.g. read/unead) better than any other method.

  • Need help! Can't validate date overlaps for a tabular column

    Hello all,
    The validation I created to validate whether new or updates rows does not overlap with any records in the table isn't working.
    The columns are StartDt and EndDt
    Validation Type: NOT EXISTS
    Validation expresion:
    select 1
        from  sample S
        WHERE S.STARTDT BETWEEN :STARTDT AND :ENDDT
    OR(S.ENDDT BETWEEN :STARTDT AND :ENDDT)
    or (S.STARTDT <= :STARTDT and S.ENDDT >= :ENDDT)
    or (:STARTDT <= S.STARTDT and :ENDDT >= S.ENDDT)
    Error Message:
    Times overlap
    When Buttons pressed
    -Select Button-
    The validation works if a new row or updated row overlaps any existing start and end date records but it doesn't work if I update startdate and end date rows that doesn't overlap existing date times
    Example:
    TABLE DISPLAYS THE FOLLOWING RECORDS
    NAME                   START DATE                      END DATE
    TEST                    1/1/2012                               12/31/2012
    If I update the rows to the following values, I receive an error message (although those values don't overlap any records in the table)
    NAME                   START DATE                      END DATE
    TEST                    6/1/2012                               10/30/2012
    Any ideas? Do I need to change my code?
    Click the link to view the answer to this question. Need help! Can't validate date overlaps for a tabular column
    Message was edited by: CharlieMack

    Logic for date range overlap testing only requires two conditions in the WHERE clause:
    ORACLE-BASE - Overlapping Date Ranges
    WHERE S.STARTDT <= :ENDDT AND S.ENDDT >= :STARTDT -- TRUE for ranges that overlap
    It looks a little odd, but, if you scribble out a 'logic table', it makes sense.
    Condition
    A.start <= B.end
    A.end >= B.start
    A__A B--B
    true
    false
    A__B=A--B
    true
    true
    A__B==B__A
    true
    true
    B--A==B__A
    true
    true
    B--B A__A
    false

    Help!!!!
    Hi I am a web designer at beginners stage with web

    Something like what you are attempting is not simple.
    Flash, Flex would be ideal for creating the UI and
    manipulating the vectors.

    "Reap what you sew"

    some parts of that are doable using non-advanced skills, but
    will be difficult and unwieldly if there are more than a few
    colors/patterns.
    saving the image to the server is a bit more advanced and
    you're going to need some server-side scripting like php, perl, asp
    etc. in addition to some flash programming ability.

  • Need help Setting up Multiple Static Ip , 1 for each port of the fios router

    Need help Setting up multiple Static Ip on my fios router
    I have been trying to figure out how to set up multiple ip in my fios router.
    However I kind of managed how to set up multiple static ip However the way I want it is for each port of my router to have an external ip signed to it. ( like 4 different modem in 1 )
    Verizon gave me 5 static ip but they can not help me how to set it up.
    Have anyone here done more then one static ip on different ports? I assume that the process will be the after the second static ip.

    You want to set up Static Nat. You will not assign the IP to a port, but rather to a local machine. Figure out what machines you want your IP's to go to. Under the firewall section you will see static nat. Pick the machine you want and enter one of the IP's you were assigned.
