Problem with Xerox XA7-17i with a Macbook Intel ore duo

Hi - please help
I have recently got a Xerox XA17-17i monitor to use as a second display for my new Macbook but it doesn't seem to receive any signal from the mac - the screen is blank and doesn't respond.
The Xerox works fine with my sons mac mini which has a DVI connection on the back which the Xerox plugs strait into.
On the Macbook I connected with a mini dvi to vga adapter that I already had plus a vga to DVI so to connect on to the DVI adapter from the monitor.
What is also strange is if I boot Windows XP sing bootcamp I get the initial XP starting screen with the blue dots starting then the screen goes blank on the macbook for a second and the Xerox goes dead.
I know that the macbook recognizes the monitor as when I gather the windows under screen preferences it shows one for the Xerox XA7-17i - also when mirroring is off the cursor can disappear off the side of the macbook screen as though it's going onto the Xerox but all is blank.
I've tried altering the screen resolution under Display on the macbook and both mirroring on and off but no joy -
Please help!!

I have had the same problem with a Xerox XAP 192i. I am using bootcamp on the mackbook. The monitor works fine under Windows Vista. But I get the same problems as described before when I connect it under MacOS (using the VGA adapter).
I purchased the said adaptor but they are not compatible with the monitor as it has four extra pins around the big flat pin. Have you managed to find a compatible adaptor? I only tried the Apple shop in Regent Street.
Have you had more luck with it?
Cheers,
George

  • 10.4.7 or 10.4.6 is incompatible with Xerox XA7-19i LCD display??

    Hello,
    I've discovered some strange behaviour of my core duo mac mini with Xerox XA7-19i LCD display. This display worked well with 10.4.5, but after my upgrade to 10.4.7 my screen wasblank and only blinked a little bit after booting. The only way was to put into sleep mode with the power button, and wake up with the keyboard to get it work. It was disgusting so i reinstalled osx and upgrade only to 10.4.6. Now it works, but i cannot see the booting of my computer i onyl see a black blinking during the boot. After that when it booted up totally a get the desktop. It's now a little bit better, but still strange.
    If somebody has the opportunity to test this display with mac mini, or other intel based macs, please do it and report it here!!

    I have a new Macbook and can't get this display to work at all ... unless I boot it up in Windows ... Tried all your tips but to no avail. Any help appreciated.

  • Why can't install adobe illustrator on macbook intel core duo?

    I just bought the Macbook intel core duo, specifically so I could use Adobe Illustrator. I installed adobe CS2 and every program installed EXCEPT FOR ILLUSTRATOR! Tech support says Apple and Adobe are working on the problem. Can anyone help me?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I've installed CS2 standard on about ten Intel-based Macs and and CS2 Premium on three Intel-based Macs at work. I haven't encountered any issues. No MacBooks at work though, just Mac minis, MacBook Pros and Mac Pro towers (which don't have the Core Duo chips).
    After reading your message here, I made a quick search of the Adobe support forums and couldn't find any messages there about anyone having a problem installing Illustrator CS2 on a Core Duo Mac of any kind.
    Our Intel-based Macs are all up-to-date with Mac OS X 10.4.8 and all the extras like QuckTime 7.1.3. Which "tech support" did you contact? Apple or Adobe? If Adobe is aware of the issue and is working on a solution, I'm afraid there isn't much we could do to help you here.

  • I have an older MacBook Intel 2 Duo processor 2.4Gh 4GB mem running 10.6.8.  Yahoo just informed me I must upgrade my Safari (5.1.10). How much can I upgrade from 10.6.8 without degrading performance?

    I have and older MacBook Intel 2 Duo processor 2.4 Ghz, 4GB mem, running 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10.  Yahoo has just informed me that they will no longer support Safari 5.1.10 and my question is how much higher than 10.6.8 can I go to get a better Safari before I start reducing performance on an older computer? It is about 6 years old but runs fine for my purposes.

    If you want to stay with 10.6, try Firefox which is still being updated.
    Firefox
    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.

    Do a backup before installing.

  • Mac mini works strange with Xerox XA7-19i LCD

    Hello!
    I bought a brand new Mac mini and connected it to my Xerox XA7-19i LCD which works fine with my PC. It has cable with DVI connector, and cable is not removable (other side is built-in in LCD).
    After I power-on Mac LCD just blinks and after few seconds monitor reports "No signal". After pluging-out and then pluging-in DVI cable, I get the picture. And I have to repeat that every time. I have also BootCamp with WinXP which boots just fine without re-pluging the cables. MacOSX also doesn't detect refresh rate of this LCD. In MacOSX it reports only 60Hz, while in WinXP it works at 75Hz.
    I borrowed Dell LCD with VGA cable and it works fine in MacOSX and WinXP, so I'm pretty sure that the problem is about properly detecting Xerox LCD while booting MacOSX.
    Does anybody know any drivers or something like that for Xerox LCD for MacOSX?

    Hello!
    I found a "solution". It is not what a wanted but it is as closest I can get.
    If I don't turn on monitor before I turn on Mac everything goes well.
    So when I'm turning on Mac a wait for 15sec before I turn on the monitor. After logging, I change resolution to 1280x1024@76. Thing that I have to do before tuning off Mac mini is to set back resolution to 1024x768 or 1024x820 and turn off the monitor (don't leave monitor in standby).
    If I want to change boot disk at booting time I have a problem, because after holding Option key it boots up in BootCamp and waits for boot disk selection. If I turn on monitor after 15sec the screen is black. Solution for this is that BootCamp always selects first MacOSX volume, so if I want to boot in MacOSX I have to just press Enter, if I want to boot WinXP I have to press Tab then Enter.
    That is the only solution in which I don't have to plug out and back in DVI cable.
    Is it possible to make some script which will change automatically resolutions on logging in and out?
    Thanks!

  • Problem Reading DL DVDs (DVD-R DL) on Intel Core Duo

    I have a problem when trying to read a burned DVD-R DL. The system just ejects the DVD after about 20-25 seconds of trying to read it. The same thing happens when I put in a blank DL DVD. The format is DVD-R DL, which I believe this iMac should be able to read/write.
    Any advice? - Thanks.

  • Bought a macbook intel core duo, any upgrades available?

    5 days before the macbooks with intel core 2 duo came out, i purchased a black one. Since it is within 30 days, is there any way for me to upgrade to the "new macbooks"?
    Matt

    Yes, you will be able to go and upgrade the "newer" mac books. The grace period isn't 30 days though, it is 14 days. What you need to do is go to an apple store with your reciept and say that you would like to get the newer MB. They will ask for a reciept and most likely will have to pay a re-stocking fee...
    I hope this helps.

    I have a Macbook that is using Mac OS x 10.4.11 and wish to update the OS. Can someone tell me how to do this and the best way?

    Any Intel core 2 Duo MBP can run Snow Leopard.  Order the disk from the Apple store ($19.99) and install it.  After installation check for software updates.  These are the Snow Leopard requirements;

    With 10.4.8 the problem is the same as with 10.4.7, so apple has not changed anything, despite of my bug report.
    I hope sombody will read this problem, and may have a solution for that!

    Hi B4n4n;
    If you feel that strongly about this question then talk to Apple. Here on this discussion you are talking to other Apple users like yourself. You can submit your feedback to Apple at OS X feedback.

  • I am having a problem with Windows Fusion installed on a MacBook.

    I am having a problem with Windows Fusion installed on a MacBook OS 10.  When attempting to use a Browser, (either IE, or Chrome), under Windows Fusion, I cannot browse to ANY page except Gmail.com.
    I checked all security settings, and found no problem. Neither browser will allow me to do ANYTHING other than go to Gmail.com!!!
    I am not sure if I have some virus on my Windows side, because Google and Safari both work perfectly on my Apple side, just not when running Windows Fusion.
    Is there some setting I am missing, or do you think I have malware/virus issues?? My Internet connection is DEFINITELY working fine - I can send, receive, open, and close all my email on Gmail only, and can navigate freely on Gmail, but cannot get to any other site even hyperlinked to Gmail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you very much.

    If you've already tried my previous suggestions, it may be that something has tampered with the DNS settings in your Windows VM, which might bypass the settings your Mac uses. Assuming you're using Windows 8, these instructions explain how to check and change the DNS settings. There's also a link in those instructions listing a variety of suggested DNS settings. If you do try changing the settings, record what the settings currently are in case you want to return to them.

  • While updating my MacBook Pro to the newest software, it froze with a grayish screen with a Apple logo and a frozen pinwheel right below it. What can I do to finish updating or to fix this problem?

    We can't help you if you don't even know what you are installing.  Never install anything if you do not know what it is.  Installings through Software Update always have explanations which you should be reading to see if you actually need and/or want them.
    That being said, it appears you attempted to upgrade to Mavarick.  Although I am not positive. 
    Sorry, I am going to back out of this because I nor you know what it was you installed.  Hopefully, someone else will chime in here. 
    GOOD LUCK!
