Problem with the HDMI cable.

Hi folks.
I was living in another country where I have had my TV and MacBook Pro Retina there with the Samsung TV via HDMI cable I was watching movies. Everything was perfect.
Recently moved to another country, I brought with my of course my MacBook and HDMI cable.
The problem now is, I have the very same Samsung TV and everytime I connect the TV with MacBook the TV displays green. Sounds work perfect. I can see everything but with the green thing on TV.
I bought another HDMI cable thought the problem would get solved, but the same problem even with the new HDMI cable.
Do you know how to solve this problem, guys?
Thank you so much.

  • Anyone have a problem with the HDMI port suddenly not recognizing any digital source imput signal?

    I have an HP 2711x monitor. 
    Anyone suddenly have a problem with it no longer recognizing any digital source input with the HDMI port (or DVI), yet the VGA port works fine?
    Thanks.

    Hello Largelee,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I understand you are having issues with your HP 2711x Monitor not displaying HDMI or DVI inputs, yet it can display VGA inputs. Are these inputs all coming from the same device? Such as your computer? Does the computer's outputs show up on other devices via HDMI and DVI? If it works are you using the same cables? Are there any messages displayed on the monitors screen when you have the HDMI or DVI hooked up?
    Check to see if any of the documents below pertaining to the HP 2711x Monitor pertain to your issue:
    Flat Panel Monitor Displays Message about No Signal, Signal out of Range, Sleep, or Power Save
    'Input out of Range' Error After a Recovery or Upgrading to Windows 7
    Monitor is Blank

    It looks like your memory card is corrupted. Reformat the card. Did you try another USB port?

  • I get no audio on the tv with the hdmi cable with my mc book pro 2008

    Connect your computer to a samsung tv with hdmi cable and audio only I get the laptop, I do not get any option in system preferences to change the audio or anything, thanks hope someone can help me

    Your model cannot carry sound through an HDMI adapter. If you have an auido in port on your TV, you can probably use a 1/8" stereo cable to carry the sound from your computer to your television.
    Good luck,

  • When playing netflix with the HDMI cable attached to my iphone it freezes up??

    When I attach my iphone to my TV via an Hdmi cable, it freezes up and stops continually???
    Can I fix this?

    You couldn't turn the machine on because it was already on (and therefore warm), although the screen was asleep and refusing to wake properly. When you held down the power button as I had suggested, the machine turned off as it's supposed to do, and when you restarted it, it started normally, as I expected it would.

  • Is anyone else had a problem with the hdmi mirroring with the new Ios5 update? I'm getting sound but no video. It was working fine before.

  • There is a problem with the charging cable that wont let my iPad charge. it is probably the little usb thingy. it does charge when it is out of power, but as soon as it turns on it stops charging. anyone got a fix for it? mail me at simenrognli@hotmail.no

    My chargers little USB port probably is the fail. it lets my ipad charge only when it is completely out of power, but as soon as it turns on, it stops charging. Any tips on what i can do? The charger is new and has worked until today. i cant bring it to the store because it was bought in my neighbour country Sweden. Thanks in advance.

    - Try another cable.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. You can still go if your country has Genius Bars

    Have you tried this without the universal dock?

  • Re: Qosmio X300-12H - Screen blank if I connect the HDMI cable to my TV

    Hello all,
    I'd be most grateful if anyone could help with this..
    I updated my laptop and then re-started to find that the screen just stayed blank after the Windows start up stuff. I eventually found that by removing the HDMI cable to my tv it all worked fine again;)
    However, as soon as I plug in my tv with the HDMI cable the screen goes blank again:(
    PLEASE HELP!!
    Many thanks,
    Sam

    i connect the HDMI cable while my nvidia control panel is open it shows that the samsung tv is connect.
    then shortly after the laptop screen goes blank. on the TV it shows Toshiba-PC in the corner but the screen is blank.
    tried to use the FN keys, but no response. have to restart the computer and disconnect the HDMI.

  • IPad 1 will it stream Netflix with the HDMI adaptor?

    Will IPad 1stream Netflix with HDMI adaptor? In HD.

    i believe it will play with the hdmi cable and all the out put cables
    but not 100 % sure about HD video, i would imagine so, its so hard to find real hd video on netflix, computer hd content can be different from set top box hd content.
    the one thing that netfix won't do is play over airplay they won't support it

  • HT200197 the colour on my apple tv is not right. itsshowing every thing in a grean and purple colour. i have restarted apple tv and changed the hdmi cable but the problem stiil persists

    the colour on my apple tv is not right. the only colours are black white green and purple. i have retatrted my apple tv and chenged the HDMI cable all with no success.
    any suggestions of what else i can try?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
    If this doesn't help, try it on another TV, if the problem persists you possibly have a failed unit.

  • Problems with the miniport display thunderbolt-HDMI

    I have an iMac 3.4 Ghz Intel core i7, the software is Mac OS x 10.6.8 and I have a new TV HD  LG 32" (LG 32LS5600- ZC) with 3 HDMI plugs. When I put the mini Display port in the thunderbolt plug behind the MAC  and in the HDMI port of the LG tv nothing happens... why? I tried to switch on before the TV and after the Mac... the opposite... and to check in Preferenze del sistema to see if the voice rileva monitor worked... nothing. The HDMI cable works because I am able to see the satellite TV perfectly. The mini port display Kanaan is new, bought on Amazon few weeks ago...  The Mac doesn't see the TV monitor which says: nessun segnale whatever I do!
    May you help me?
    Thanks

    Pressing F9 and then clicking on iTunes didn't do anything, but I can close iTunes anyways, that isn't the problem. It is just the seperate video display window that is the prblem . As for the other suggestion I cannot right click, so I definatly cannot right click on the window. However if you know of a way I can get it to normal or even original size with out right clicking, that would be helpful.

  • Is anyone else experiencing problems with the thunderbolt port on their Mac Mini's regarding using it to connect a second monitor? I've got the Mini Display Port to DVI-D adapter along with a DVI-D cable and I can't get an image on the second monitor.

    I had an dual display image / setup working twice for a few seconds, but then it cut out. I think there may be a problem with the thunderbolt port.

    As far as I can tell you have only listed that you have a DVI monitor connected to the Mini Displayport socket (i.e. the Thunderbolt socket) via presumably the Apple Mini Displayport to DVI adapter and a DVI to DVI cable.
    You don't appear to have listed what the second monitor is and how it is connected (even though not working). As such I cannot tell what may be wrong.

  • Can you hook up your iPod Touch 4th generation with an HDMI cable to your HDTV and play videos from your iPod to the TV?

    I'm trying to find out if I can hook up my iPod touch 4th gen. iOS 5.0.1 to my HDTV with an HDMI cable and have it mirror what I do on the iPod Touch like mirroring videos for example. I need to find out and if so, how?

    You can only output content to your TV if the App you are using supports the TV Out functionality. Mirroring is not supported on the iPod Touch.
    If you still want to output content from your iPod to your TV, make sure you have the right cables as described here.
