Samsung TV automatic detection of MacBook

I have a MacBook (Late 2009) and connect it to my TV via the DVI output and a HDMI cable. I would like to connect it when closed and use the TV as a monitor, using my iphone to access the computer. The problem is, when I connect the cables to my MacBook, I need to open the clamshell, wait for the screen to connect, then close it. It's a minor annoyance and wondered if anyone out there had an idea of how to make it work as soon as its connected.
Thanks

My Panasonic Plasma display has Format/Mode settings that allow me to swap between a variety of sizes and screen formats - have you anything similar ?

You really have to mess with the resoluton, espescially the refresh rate, as it varies from projector to projector, monitor to monitor. Even within the same brand! Because so many manufacturers are trying so many different things to become the next cool kid on the block, and the way the formats are being configured that's now part of the game.
That's why so many professionally produced corporate shows hire a dedicated projectionist for the video presentations. Too many bugs in the honey.
Refresh & sesolution are the first things to look at.
Just so you know that colors in PowerPoint PC, and PowerPoint Mac, don't exactly match... go figure.
I forgot to mention another thing, sometimes it's the projector that needs to be tweaked.

System Preferences > Network > WiFi
To give a network the highest priority, drag the name of the network to the top of the list. This is the network your computer will attempt to join first.

Is there a way to automatically detect and delete duplicate photos in a library

I just imported a load of photos into my main iPhoto '11 Library from several older MAC's Photo Libraries. Despite repeatedly using the "Don't Import Duplicate Photos" dialogue box, I have many duplicate photos. Is there a way to automatically detect and delete Duplicate Photos?
I also have iPhoto Library Manager installed on my MAC, but cannot seem to locate on it anything that would do this.
I have over 4,000 photos, so would really appreciate some help here! Thanks in advance...

duplicate annihilator - http://www.brattoo.com/propaganda/
And NEVER import an iPhoto library into another iPhoto library - doing so des not work and creates massive duplication
if you still have all of the original iPhoto libraries I recommend you drag the bad one you created to the desktop (delete it later when everythin has successfully been completed) and start over usin iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to merge the libraries

Cannot update iPod software even after setting automatic detection

Hi, I've been trying to update the software on my 5th gen iPod but to no avail. I've recently bought the pod and just installed iTunes. It informed me that an update was available for the iPod but I can't get it! Everytime I click on Update in the Version section on iTunes, it says "iTunes could not contact the iPod software update server because you are not connected to the internet....Make sure you internet connection is active and try again". The connection is active and i've even tried the method in the hot topics support section telling you to go to 'LAN settings' under the 'Connections' tab in Internet Options and under Automatic Configuration, set it to 'Automatically Detect settings' but this has still not worked. Can someone please help me as this is doing my head in?!!!

yea... something like that is happening to me... when i try to update it (with itunes 7) it says that my firmware is "corrupt".... i dont know what this means because it had no problem updating b4... and no i didnt try to put linux or anything on it. it just wont update.
and if anyone knows.... y does my itunes symbol look like a picture with a camera in the corner... i just downloaded itunes 7 to my friend's computer and it looks just like last itunes but instead of a green music note infront of a cd... its a blue music note infront of a cd... and when i plugged my ipod into his computer it said that my ipod is up to date.... y is that?

How to automatically detect server ip address

does any one know how to automatically detect an ip address of a server from the client with a socket based connection ?
instead of prompting the client to connect to the server ip address which is trouble some.

You must start with some initial information and a known environment.
There are several possibilities after that.
- The server has a 'name'. This is not an ip address but a name like "yahoo.com". When you connect using that, even if the IP changes, the correct IP will be returned. (At least ignoring an annoying bug in some VMs)
- A specific IP address
- Use a methodoly to 'request' a server address. One version of this is to use a UDP broadcast another version uses a service manager (which itself must be found.)

Hi ronda
I am not sure what you mean by "automatically". It will find your network but you will need to enter your password, assuming you have your WiFI protected.

IE, Disable 'Automatically Detect Settings' Via GPO

Hi guys,
We have recently been having a small problem with IE, whereby the 'automatically detect settings' check box will get ticked - resulting in our users not being able to traverse our proxy server.
I use the User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > IE Maintenance > Connection to set up our proxy settings, however I can't see an option to explicitly disable the 'automatically detect settings' check box.
Is this located somewhere else in an admin template, or am I simply missing an option that is right in front of me?
Thanks.
Glen

here is a script that does the trick: source
http://www.craig-tolley.co.uk/2011/08/30/disable-automatically-detect-settings-in-internet-explorer/
Option Explicit

'Create a constant for the HKEY_CURRENT_USER object

'Define variables

DIm binValue
strComputer = "."
strRegistryKey = "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections"
strRegistryValue = "DefaultConnectionSettings"
'Connect to the Registry
Set objRegistry = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
'Retrieve the current settings.
objRegistry.GetBinaryValue HKCU, strRegistryKey, strRegistryValue, binValue
'Change the 'Automatically detect settings' box to unticked
binValue(8) = 05
'binValue(8) = 13 - Enable this line to check the box instead of uncheck

Automatically detecting an external monitor

I recently got an external monitor (with a nice 2048x1152 resolution ) to use it together with my laptop in a dual-head configuration. I can configure it with xrandr and everything works fine. What I would like now is that X automatically detects if the monitor is connected and adapts the resolution accordingly. The keyword here is dynamically, I do not want to hardcode it into xorg.conf, as I also use the laptop on the road.
This looks quite good http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_Rand … t_on_login, but arch doesn't seem to have the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ directory. The most similar directory I found is /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d, but it doesn't seem to work (I put an echo command redirected to a file in the script to see if it was at least trying to do something, but no). Any idea where the script should be put?

This is more or less what I am doing, starting it manually. I could put it into .xinitrc, but I would prefer to have it working globally and automatically for all (well, the two ) users of the laptop. And the links in the RandR1.2 page all discuss either manually selecting the output of hardcoding it into xorg.conf.

Mail does not retain correct external server path for Exchange Server '07 even when "automatically detect and maintain account settings" is unchecked. Advice?

Mail keeps resetting the external server path for an Exchange server '07 account when the program is closed and reopened. This happens even though "automatically detect and maintain account settings" is unchecked. To reset to the correct setting I need to disable the account, make the change and save with the account disabled, close Mail, reopen Mail, and enable the account. Then the settings are maintained and Mail works great... until Mail is closed and reopened again. At that point the server path reverts to an incorrect setting. Anyone else experiencing this? Advice? I don't think this is a problem with the Exchange server because this problem did not happen with OS X Mavericks.

This this to fix repeated password requests....
Open Keychain Access in Applications/Utilities
Search for your Dreamhost accounts. There should be two entries (incoming, outgoing) for each account.
It's not uncommon to find old entries. You might want to delete all and start clean.The Keychain isn't smart and will keep all old entries when you add/change a password.
While you are in the Keychain run Keychain First Aid, Under Keychain Access in the Menu bar.
Open Mail
Open Connection Doctor.
If you see red for the account, enter the password again.
If you continue to have problems, delete the account then add it back.

Joining paths chronologically (endpoint of objects with startpoint of the above insteadof automatic detection)

Just like the topic says, is there a way (scripting?) to join paths (i think of about 100-500 of more or less detailed vector scribbles) by connecting every endpoint to the startpoint of the following object above?

Would be great. Sure, i'll try.
1) You see the original scribble, 4 brush strokes, every stroke beginning in the bottom and directed to top-right.
2) The result of selecting strokes > right-click > join produces automatically detected path, connecting the nearest (?) anchors.
3) What it should be: end-point of the first stroke should join with start-point of second and so on.
Would this be possible? This would save enormous amounts of time while animating paths in after effects.

Cut automatically detected scenes?

hello Im new in final and i need to know how can i cut automatically detected scenes? after click on dv start/stop detect. or is only manual?
thanks

Once you SUB-CLIP after using Start/Stop Detect, you can treat the sub clips as though they are individual video elements. However, they are not.
If you want individual files and are working in DV, you have two options.
1. log each clip individually then batch capture within FCP
2. use a utility like Live Capture Plus (when capturing) or CatDV (after capture) to cut the longer capture file into individual clip files. Both LCP and CatDV are from Squarebox software.
