New Alum Macbook 2.4 not connecting to TV

Like many others here, I've been unsuccessful connecting my new MacBook to my Samsung LCD with the new MD to VGA. Since it's not working, I'd like to return it and hopefully purchase another adapter (maybe HDMI?) if there's an alternative other folks have gotten to work for them. Has anyone had success with other methods/adapters?

Apple's new MacBook lines includes a form of digital copy protection that will prevent protected media, such as DRM-infused iTunes movies, from playing back on devices that aren't compliant with the new priority protection measures.
The Intel-developed technology is called High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) and aims to prevent copying of digital audio and video content as it travels across a variety of display connectors, _even if such copying is not in violation of fair use laws._
Among the connectors supported by the technology are the Mini DisplayPort found on Apple's latest MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air, in addition to others such as Digital Visual Interface (DVI), High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), Gigabit Video Interface (GVIF), and Unified Display Interface (UDI).

MacBook Air will not connect to a specific network

Hi,
I recently moved into a new place and the landlord has a wireless connection in place. My Macbook Pro , iPad and iPhone 5s all connect to the network without a problem (it requires a password and we were able to connect just fine). However, my mom's MacBook Air is not connecting at all. It recognizes the network and even establishes a connection to it, however, I only see an exclamation point on the airport icon on the top right once the connection is established and we cannot browse any websites.
Does anyone have any potential solution to this? I'm not able to drive to the Apple Store right now so I was hoping something could be done on my end prior to going to the genius bar.
Thanks in advance

My macbook pro is not connecting with my iPhone, help?

my macbook pro is not connecting with my iPhone 4S, help? I followed the instructions but somehow the Iphone doesn't connect!

I am having the same problem. First on a new ViewSonic, which I sent back thinking it wasn't working. Now the same problem on my new Powerbook Mac with a new Epson projector. Apple support hasn't been helpful.

Both my iMac and macbook pro will not connect to a certain web site?

Both my macs (21" new iMac & a 2008 macbook pro) will not connect to foxcycling.co.uk. I know the site is live as I can access on my iphone and ipad.
From what I've read on the forums its a settings issue which probably migrated from the macbook to the iMac when I migrated the data.
Very frustrating ....
Any idea's and simple solutions?
Both systems up to date etc

OK, OS X does not include Adobe Flash. The website is probably Flash based. Chrome has Flash incorporated into it. If you want to download and install Flash visit Adobe's website and download Flash for your system.

Macbook air will not connect to the wifi network

I recently had to replace my wireless network router and now my macbook air will not connect to the network. it worked fine with the old wireless router. Now, i get a "unable to join wi-fi network" message. The network ID (SSID) and password (WPA) are the same as before. I try to manually enter the password, but continue to get the previous message.
Any help in figuring out how to correct this problem is greatly appreciated.
Also, I have several PCs in the house that have had zero problems connecting to my wireless with the new router. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
Ever since did the last airport utility update this has been happening.
I believe the airport utility update is solely a software update. Repair permission and repair disk (boot from your installation disk A) may help.
Other wise, http://osxdaily.com/2009/12/22/mac-wireless-problems-guide-to-troubleshooting-ai rport-wireless-problems-on-your-mac/ may help, too.
Cheers.

My macbook air will not connect to the internet due to a self assigned IP address. I have tried trawling the support forums, but either I can't understand the suggestions, or they don't work. Please explain to me in simplest terms how to fix this. Thanks!

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

MacBook Pro will not connect to the internet

Suddenly, my MacBook Pro will not connect to the Internet--even when I take the cable from the Time Capsule and plug it into the laptop...
-Internet is good
–WiFi is connected
-both work with my iPad...

You should show WiFi:
Do you have it turned on?

My MacBook pro will not connect to the Internet through wifi yet all other devices do

My MacBook pro will not connect to the Internet through wifi. I have several other wifi enabled devices and they are all connected to the Internet just fine... What could/would cause this?

Disable your AirPort and enable in a second. Or check, maybe you need to type in correct digits in; Settings/Network/Advanced/Configure...

My MacBook Pro will not connect to my home wifi but will connect everywhere else. My other Apple devices (I-pad, I-touch, another MacBook Pro) connect to the router without problems. It was working fine but all of a sudden stopped working.Thanks!

try this.
get back into your router's settings and start deleting devices that are not connected to your router.
you can also delete the ones that are connected - they'll connect again.
on the DHCP side of it, increase the amount of users that can connect/log in to your router.
see if that sorts it out for you.
good luck.

IMessage on my macbook air will not connect.

iMessage on my macbook air will not connect. It says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." I have gone through all the support instructions and a lot of these discussion chats. I have sign out of it and my phone and resigned in. I have checked that everything is verified and connected. My ios is up to date on both my computer and phone. It worked fine until about a week ago and suddenly it stopped
Thank you for your assistance!

Hi,
In Hard Drive/Library/Fonts do you have the AppleGothic.ttf Font.
The iMessages account uses this to "register".
If the computer has been Off then the App effectively "registers" the Apple ID again.
It cannot do this is the Font is "missing".
The thread I saw that highlighted this as an issues said the font could be downloaded from Apple but not the "how" of that.

I have a new iPad 2 which will not connect to my wi fi despite a new router being installed. When I tap my network name (which is with TalkTalk) the message comes up "unable to join the network TalkTalk etc...)

I have a new Apple iPad2 which will not connect to my wi fi despite a new router. When I tap the correct address it comes up with the message "Unable to join the network TalkTalketc... It does connect in other peoples' houses . Am I right in thinking that the trouble is with TalkTalk?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo and keeps asking for password.

My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo account and repeatedly asks for yahoo password, any soliutions to this?

This is due to a change in Yahoo's security settings. You need to go into your Yahoo account settings and create a special App Password, then use that password in Contacts to access your account. Same goes for Calendar.
