Need help connecting 23" ACD to Mac book pro

I have a 17" MBP and a 23" ACD the ACD works beautifully with my G5 tower. Now when I try to connect it to my MBP nothing happens. The display power indicator is on but the screen is black. When I tell the MBP to detect displays nothing happens. What am I missing?

I have the same issue. A little more interesting on mine, which you can try with another monitor, find an analog monitor and using the DVI to Analog adapter that came with your computer, connect it to the analog monitor. Mine works with an analog monitor connection through the adapter but not to a straight dvi connection.

  • Canon MG 31222 won't connect wirelessly to a Mac book Pro.

    Trying to get a Canon MG 31222 to connect wirelessly to a Mac book Pro running OS 10.6.8.   I've turned off and on both printer and router with no success. In the print and fax dialog box, the printer is not listed, nor is it listed when I try to add a printer. Canon's site is useless. Their FAQs are useless. Anyone have any idea how to get this to work? No WPS button on printer. 

    If you are using Snow Leopard, Lion or Mountain Lion and have HP software for pre-Snow Leopard (either from a CD not marked as compatible with 10.6 -10.8 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, Lion or Mountain Lion and had the HP software on your Mac before you upgraded - even if you did a standard uninstall of the old software or installed new software over the top of it) you must uninstall the software using the 'scrubber' option:
    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
    Click on Continue
    Highlight your device on the left pane
    Press and hold Control + Alt + Cmd keys on the keyboard simultaneously while you click on Uninstall <<<< This IS the Scrubber Option, there is no button labeled "Scrubber"
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click Continue and let it finish
    Download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    Restart your Mac.
    Now reset the printing system:
    - Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    - Right (control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    Finally, download and install the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

    To reinstall the original OSX in your rMBP, boot the MBP using the COMMAND-OPTION-R keys.  The display should show a picture if the planet earth and you will be connected to the Apple servers.   Make certain that you have a solid Internet connection and follow the instructions.

  • Connecting la2306x monitor with mac book pro retina

    Hi There
    I just bought an HP Monitor la2306x, and tired to connect it with my Mac book pro Retina. I attempted the connection via HDMI Cable and a HDMI to Display Port Adapter, but the monitor didnt find the connection.
    I then attached an HDMI to DVI adapter to the Monitor and still nothing, the Laptop did seem to notice that i connected another display as the screen went on and off but nothing was shown on the monitor.
    Using the same connection i tried connectiong my PS3 and it connected through HDMI to DVI.
    Can the monitor work with Macs? I didnt think it would be a issue  
    Thanks a lot for your Help!

    Hello naja89,
    You want to connect a monitor to your MacBook.
    You might have to change a setting on the computer.
    The cables connect to the Thunderbolt/Mini-Display Port, and you then have to select System Preferences > Display and use Mirroring or not according to how you want to operate.
    I found this on the mac forums.
    Here is the link to the forum.
    Clicking the White Kudos star on the left is a way to say Thanks!
    Let me know how everything goes.
    Have a good day.

    Hey HJA96,

    Some of the steps included:

    - Perform a Safe Boot
    - Reset the NVRAM / PRAM
    - Start from your Mac OS X Install disc; use Disk Utility
    - Check your cables and power source
    - Remove third-party RAM and internal hardware
    - Perform an Archive and Install installation of Mac OS X
    - Perform an Erase and Install installation of Mac OS X as a last resort
    (See article for full information on all of the above)

  • Need help for downloading java at mac book retina

    Banks do NOT use Java-in-a-Browser for anything, at all. If you have received a suggestion to conduct banking with JAVA enabled in your Browser, someone is attempting to commit a crime, with you as the intended victim.  You are being scammed and should report it to the Police.

  • Firewire 400/800 and Iomega connectivity in the Latest Mac Book Pro?

    Hi,
    I am awiting my Mac Book Pro to arrive. I have no experince with a Mac Book Pro.
    I have a Mac version Iomega External Portable Hard Drive. This Iomega has USB2, Firewire 400 & Firewire 800 connectivity.
    I do not think Firewire 400 or Firewire 800 cable came with my Iomega.
    Is this Iomega connectable through Firewire 400 or Firewire 800 to a latest Mac Book pro? If so do I connect it to the Thunderbult port in my Mac Book Pro?
    Is there especial cable avaiable for these purposes?
    Regardsa

    Connection is with the FW800 port using a FW800 to FW800
    cable.  The ones I've purchase came with USB and FW800
    cables.  The Thunderbolt port is only for Thunderbolt devices
    or some displays via a Display Port adapter.
    If for some reason you no longer have any cables, FW800 cables
    are readily available either online or at any store that handles
    Apple computers, and some that don't.

    Try the Boot Camp Assistant when you are in OS X and download those and follow the directions in BCA utility.
    Then look up the Boot Camp forum. I suspect you thought this was MBP related forum, it is for 65 lb tower model (and well the new "nMP Late 2013 Mac Pro" http://www.apple.com/support/macpro/

  • Do I need anti-virus software for my Mac Book Pro (purchased in Sept, 2011)?

    McAfee's website ...
    http://home.mcafee.com/Store/PackageDetail.aspx?pkgid=358&culture=en-us&affid=79 2&eid=covmcaggl89400000070427s&adid=8370783383&
    ... says I need anti-virus protection for my Mac (of course they'd like to sell it to me). Been a Windows man since Gates was just getting started. FINALLY switched over a few months ago. McAfee makes good points about getting this protection so I thought I'd sign in here and ask you guys (the experts:-)) what YOU think?? If I do need it, please recommend. I always heard that you don't need anti-virus protection for a Mac and was hoping that would be the case but I must admit it ... that sounds a little bit far-fetched/unreasonable. I don't mind doing it if it will add extra security and isn't too annoying as it has ALWAYS been on my Windows PCs through the years. Thanks, Dan

    No. You don't need AV software.
    What does McAfee sell? AV software so of course they are going to attempt to sell it to you. Their only interest is getting your money and nothing more then that. That web site is a total crock.

  • What do I need to connect my late 2009 Mac book (mini display port) to the TV and get sound?

    I'm totally confused!
    I have a late 2009 model Macbook. And I want to connect it to my TV.
    So my research has led to believing I need a Mini display port adapter and a HDMI cable - but from some of what I have read, this won't carry sound...
    Can anyone clarify this and what I do actually need?

    The Mini DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't carry audio unless you have the Mid 2010 model 7,1 and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with theHDMI.
    If you have the Late 2009 model 6,1 White Unibody with the MiniDisplay Port there is an adapter that can combine video and audio to HDMI.
