Simple connection from powerbook to monitor remains a mystery to me.

Hello,
I have a studio monitor that gets its power through whatever it's connected to. I have a 12 inch powerbook that I want to connect the monitor to. After some research, I bought this: http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9321G/B
It came today and doesn't fit. I'm confused so I took a picture of what I'm talking about (both connectors are in the photo). Perhaps someone can prod me in the right direction or solution.
Here is the photo: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/713/dscn0475s.jpg/
Thanks to anyone who can help.

That appears to be what you want, although wrongly described as ADC to DVI. The others at the top of the page have the right description of DVI to ADC.
This is what we are talking about.

Connecting from other machine

I have installed Oracle XE 11.2 on a windows 2008 server. I am unable to connect to this database from a client machine. Tried simple connection from SQL developer, and TNS from sql plus. I am getting the following error:
Status : Failure -Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
I have the listener on port 1526 and Application express on 9093. I am able to connect to APEX from the client machines with no issues. Its the database I am unable to connect. I can connect to the database from the host machine (server) but not from any clients.
Please help / advice....
Edited by: johnj2 on May 31, 2013 6:33 AM

Could be the firewall blocking 1526, if its an actual network error. Is there a TNS error number?
Maybe -12505 listener does not currently know of SID ... or -12514 listener does not currently know of service requested ... ? If the database listener is not on the default 1521 port the local_listener parameter should be set to point the instance at the listener. On the database host make sure the database service has registered, should have both the "xe" and "xexdb" services showing in a lsnrctl services listing.
If the apex web page is working for remote clients, but not database connects, still could be a firewall block.
The telnet utility can reveal if a port is blocked, in a command box try `telnet <host> 1526` from any remote host. If the port isn't blocked it should behave like a command box lockup. Then again, if the client is win 8, may not even have telnet, its optional.

How can I connect my Powerbook or iPad Retina via HDMI cable to 4K digital video camera to be a "control monitor"

How can I connect my Powerbook or iPad Retina via HDMI cable to 4K digital video camera to be a "control monitor"

That won't work with the iPad, unless maybe there's a "control monitor" app somewhere.

HT3382 Connect from a MacBook Pro's mini display port to a Display Port monitor?

Hello everyone,
Is it possible to connect from a MacBook Pro's mini display port to a Display Port monitor with resolutions higher than 1920 x 1200? It seems Apple does not supply a mini-DP to DP adapter.
However, just as they do not make a mini-DP to HDMI adapter, but they do recommend a Belkin product for this purpose.
Is there any reason that a mini-DP to DP adapter or cable wouldn't work and support high resolutions?
Thanks for your feedback!

Hey tjk,
Thanks for the response.
Do you have any recommendations for a potential set up? The audio output and Apple DVI are on different sides of my MBP, which is alright, I guess I can get two long cables to handle each. I was hoping to just have my MBP closer to where I use it, with a cord nearby plugged in on one side to the HDTV and resting near where I keep my MBP for when I want to use the HDTV as an external monitor.
With a converter like this, you can run video out of the MBP's DVI port, and miniToslink (optical) audio out of the 3.5mm stereo mini jack to the converter, then it will combine the two and output audio and video through HDMI to the monitor.

Otherwise, depending on the TV's inputs, for video you could run DVI to DVI on the TV, or DVI to HDMI to the TV. For audio you could run 3.5mm stereo mini plug from the MBP to RCA adapter on the TV. Toslink/optical is also an option.

I just bought a new external monitor (ASUS), and I have DVI adapter plug. When I connect it with my Macbook pro - the monitor remain black (even tho it is 'on')

I just bought a new external monitor (ASUS), and it have DVI and VGA plugs. I bought the DVI adapter to connect with my macbook pro laptop. But the external monitor remain black… so I turn it off then turn it back on, it said "No VGA signal". Does it means I have to use VGA adapter instead? I am not sure how it work, I am very new to it… I hope you can help me out!
Thanks!

Trying to connect my iMac to on 10.8.2 with PowerBook Intel on 10.5.8; sharing works from PowerBook to iMac but not the other way around. Why?

Trying to connect my iMac to on 10.8.2 with PowerBook Intel on 10.5.8; sharing works from PowerBook to iMac but not the other way around. Why?

Thanks for the interest. Preferences are similar on both machines: screen sharing, file sharing, printer sharing & scanner sharing all ticked and radio button for Screen Sharing is ON.
My confusion is that I can get a network connection to the iMac by selecting "go to server" on the PowerMac running 10.5.8 but am unable to make the iMac connect to the PowerMac using similar selections. When ethernet cable is plugged in the PowerMac shows up on the finder bar on the iMac, but it does not allow either screen sharing or connection to occur - a dialog box tells me to check System Prefs and Network connection.
I'm hoping to export a large file of photos from iPhoto on my iMac to my wife's PowerMac and hoped to achieve this with an ethernet network connection.

What cables to connect to the VGA monitor

Hello,
From what I know the Mini Mac 2010 includes a HDMI to DVI monitor adapter. I have a LCD display with a VGA port. How do I use this adapter to connect it to the monitor VGA port. I am thinking about connecting HDMI --> DVI adapter (included)to DVI ---> VGA adapter (purchase) to my monitor. Will it work?
Also, how do I know if the Mini Mac is 2010 or early version before I buy it?
Thanks.

Using the stack of adapters you suggest will definitely not work. The VGA monitor is not a digital signal, where the HDMI is. DVI specs support both analog and digital signals, but when using a DVI to HDMI cable it should have the digital only version of the DVI connector. Even if you can find adapters to fit, you can not go between HDMI and VGA without a digital to analog conversion device in the middle.
Your only practical option is the Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter.
If you are asking how to tell a 2010 HDMI equipped mini from earlier models, its quite simple - the HDMI native models are all the unibody aluminum design. The earlier models without HDMI have the plastic top.

Powerbook on monitor w/ wireless keyboard?

I'm interested in buying a display monitor on which to run my Powerbook G4 (Dec 2005).
Specifically, this Fujitsu Siemens 22" - http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/407346/art/fujitsu-siemens/scaleoview-l22-2w-22- lcd.html#
I've read that you can operate a Powerbook in this way whilst closed if you plug in the monitor and an external keyboard.
But I'm interested in getting Apple's own wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard.
So - will my Powerbook know to stay awake with a wired connection from the monitor only?
That is, the keyboard will presumably need the machine to be awake to establish a Bluetooth connection in the first place (?)

There is a setting (either in Bluetooth, or Energy Saver) for Bluetooth to wake the computer. Connect the monitor and power adapter and close the lid. Using the external keyboard or mouse should then wake the computer.

Hi Neetesh,
I have check all, but it resolved not my problem.
I will describe my scenario again:
scenario:
syncronous request from system A over DataPower ->SAP PI to SAP system.
communication DataPower to PI: SOAP over https
DataPower located in other network zone.
port is activated in firewall.
called URL from DataPower:

channel=:<business system>:<interface>
Problem:
authentication looks like ok. No error in ICM Trace, in default java
trace login from DataPower IP-adress ok.
but no message is to see in the communication channel.
no message in the adapter engine, no message in the integration engine
DataPower get a timeout. (Timeout 2 minutes)
we find no error, but also no message
What could be the error? And where find I some information in SAP PI.
Thanks and regards

Difference between connection pooling and simple connection

Anybody please tell me what is the Difference between connection pooling and simple connection and also where we define connection pooling and how.
Thanks
Please reply soon
amitindia

Creating and closing connection to the database is a relatively slow process. Equally connections use database resources so you can't just open as many as you want.
A connection pool maintains a number of open connections throughout the lifetime of the application. Instead of opening and closing the connections your application just "borrows" them from the pool when they're needed.
If the pool runs out of connections it will usually create new ones as needed until you reach some predefined upper limit.
A good connection pool will also manage connections which have failed for any reason, and report code which fails to return connections to the pool (ie connection leaks).
The number of connections created at startup is referred to as the "low water mark" and the maximum number that the pool will allow to be opened at any given time is the "high water mark". If no connections are available client code will generally block until one is released.
If by "defined" you mean where can you get a working implementation then your database or application server vendor is likely to provide one. Also the Apache Jakarta Commons includes [url http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dbcp/]an implementation which you can use with any JDBC driver.

IIOP connection from JDeveloper does not work

I'm trying to run some sample EJB programs but cannot connect to the IIOP port from JDeveloper. I have installed Oracle 8.1.7 Enterprise on my machine, and it includes a listening location for IIOP on port 2481 under the listener. I can connect to JServer on this database from DBA Studio using various user/passwords, so the IIOP connection seems to work in principle.
But when I try to set up an IIOP connection from JDeveloper (v.3.1.1.2), the "Test" button fails to connect, but does not give any details on the reason for the error.
I have tried using the command line utility sess_sh, but this fails telling me the URL is invalid, even though it is exactly the same as the URL I connected to in DBA Studio.
Why can I connect from DBA Studio but not from JDeveloper, and can anyone tell me how to get this connection to work?
(It shouldn't be this hard to get a simple "Hello world" EJB to work!)
Thanks,
Chris

You must use Jdev 3.2.x to communicate with RDBMS 8.1.7.
Jdev 3.1.x.x is for RDBMS 8.1.6.

Connecting a 2nd Palette monitor to iMac

I have an iMac 24" 28Ghz (1Mac,8.1) and want to connect a second palette monitor to the mini DVI port, using a mini DVI to VGA connector.
A search of the forum shows issues with cursor jumping and wrong resolutions.
I really want to run my Adobe CS4 suite with the tabbed palettes on the second monitor to my right.
Is anyone doing this without issues?
Peter

Well given the huge response, I figured I'd just go ahead and warn all the vendors that they could have their stuff back promptly if it didn't work as advertised.
I bought a dead cheap 2-for at OfficeWorks. 2 Philips 160EI TFT 40cm monitors, only A$186 for both. I also got an Apple mini-DVI to VGA adaptor which has dropped in price from Apple's previous rip-off rate to A$25.
Installation was quite straight forward although the monitor looks like a dwarf next to the 24" iMac.
I installed under OSX 10.5.8 and then switched to OSX 10.6.3. Under both it was recognised immediately but defaulted for some reason to a non-native resolution, easily fixed.
I didn't need to *color manage,* that's not what it's for, but both Apple's color calibration and the on monitor controls only screwed it up so I went back to the default settings just playing a little bit with the on monitor contrast and color to try and crisp up the Finder text which still seems too soft. Apple's color calibration lead it to be way too dark. The monitor controls way too light, so factory settings is where it stays.
Visually the monitor is a tad unsharp with a visible vertical banding a little like thin corrugation. Colors are pale, about max 70-80% tint to my eye.
I was able to set separate screen backgrounds, so that I could have a pleasing black & white background to my palettes.
I tested several applications running simultaneously along with movies on both monitors. All work flawlessly so far.
I can now run tutorial DVDs on the 2nd monitor whilst keeping the application to which it refers open on the main monitor. Nice!!
*Testing palettes with Adobe CS4:* They cleverly snap to whichever of the 2nd monitors edges they are dragged to and work perfectly even sensing the real estate available on the monitor. I have set them to snap to the inside (left edge of the 2nd monitor, which is to my right). This means that for the first time the optional sub-palettes pop out to the right in reading order.
All remember their position between re-startups. No sign of flickering or any of the problems reported in the forums. That is in both Leopard and Snow Leopard.
Flicking between fullscreen view using the tab keyboard shortcut and the toolbar options has different results. Sometimes the palettes stay with the main screen in full screen view, sometimes they disappear, I'm trying to work out what combination of actions sets off what.
*Testing palettes with iWork:* They have none of Adobe's smarts but can be stacked a little awkwardly to fit. Awkward because Apple hasn't worked out how to sensibly do this and made them different sizes. However they do remember their sizes (sort of) and positions between restarts.
Pages' Outline/Fullscreen view unfortunately blacks out both monitors. I was hoping I could keep my palettes visible on the 2nd.
Overall I am very happy. I worked with 2 monitors for almost 2 decades until Apple made it both expensive and extremely awkward on several occasions. It feels very liberating to have my full workspace clear again.
OSX is one clumsy design for handling windows, despite/because of all Apple's efforts.
There is no substitute for more/separate screen real estate. So far I am one happy camper.

Why does it take over 2 minutes to get a database connection from the DataSource?

Hello,
It is taking over 2 minutes for my application to get a connection from a registered DataSource in iAS 6.0 sp4 on Solaris. The proper results are returned it just takes 2 minutes to establish the connection. The DataSource is an Oracle 9i database. I have the 9i drivers in the classpath. I also have a registered datasource that is an Oracle 8 database and have no problems establishing a connection quickly to that database. As an aside I have setup this application on JBOSS and both datasource's return a connection very quickly. If anyone has any ideas about what might be going on please respond. This issue is holding up a production release.
Here is the code:
try {
log.debug("getting a new initial context");
ctx = new InitialContext();
ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup(bundle.getString("IW_DATASOURCE"));
log.debug("after looking up datasource from initial context");
} catch (NamingException e) {
log.error(e);
throw new FinstarException
(bundle.getString("E-0001"));
try {
log.debug("about to get connection");
conn = ds.getConnection();
log.debug("after getting connection");
Produces this in the logs:
2002-05-29 08:55:12,859 DEBUG org.mitre.mii.project.finstar.FinancialSummary - about to get connection
2002-05-29 08:57:24,963 DEBUG org.mitre.mii.project.finstar.FinancialSummary - after getting connection
Here is the datasource registration file:
<ias-resource>
<resource>
<jndi-name>jdbc/pdc/IWDataSource</jndi-name>
<jdbc>
<database-url>jdbc:oracle:thin:@xxx.xxx.org:1521:acisdb</database-url>

<username>XXXXX</username>
<password>XXXXX</password>
<driver-type>OracleThinDriver</driver-type>
</jdbc>
</resource>
</ias-resource>

Have you tried to eliminate everything extraneous. In other words, do you experience the same delays with a simple Java program (no lookups, JNDI) that loads the drivermanager and creates a connection.
Do you have access to a traciong JVM or some program that captures run-time execution timing information? Even without the source, this will tell you the specific class::methos where time is spent so you can better determine where the delay is ocurring.

Simple connection from powerbook to monitor remains a mystery to me.
