Thunderbolt display not working with bootcamp and windows 7

I am running a late 2013 MBP Retina display with a Thuderbolt monitor. I am running windows 7 on a dual boot partition. I can not get my thunderbolt display to work while working in windows. The screen is currently black. I have attempted to follow the instructions in prior posts regarding this issue with no success. Is there a clear fix to get the monitor to work? Thank you

it has to be plugged into the machine before you power on the machine, it is not hot swapable like on OSX
does the screen work in OSX

  • Thunderbolt Display not working with Yosemite

    Hi all,
    After I have updated my mid 2012 Retina Macbook Pro from Mavericks to Yosemite my Thunderbolt Display has stopped working. It makes no difference if I connect the display before startup, or while the macbook is already powered on. It just doesn't power up. The display doesn't show up in System Report (?) while it was actually working on the Yosemite beta 2. I have reset the NVRAM / PRAM and SMC all to no avail. When I connect the thunderbolt cable and power plug the MacBook also doesn't charge.
    Does anyone have a solution for this?
    Thanks in advance.

    By power leak issue I mean something to do with what I just found here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5276098?tstart=0
    I was wondering why my Macbook was a bit tingly to touch. I've since plugged it in with the longer 3 pin lead. No fix to my display issue.

  • Flash Player Does Not Work with IE8 and Windows XP

    I am using Windows XP VR 5.1 with SP3. Flash Player does not function? So videos will not play that use Flash Player. The Adobe Support Site has been 000 Help because it is a free product. Microsoft says it is an Adobe problem. Finger pointing to the nth degree. I have loaded the latest version of Javascript and Flash Palyer.. Any ideas?

    Resetting IE is a shotgun approach, but may be much easier (and faster) for a user than trying to troubleshoot and find exactly which add-on, control, setting is causing issues. For a fast approach, you can reset IE, then start re-installing the add-ons you wish to use. Here is a kb that describes the process and even provides a Fix it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737
    If you’d like to troubleshoot, here are some steps that will fix most issues with Internet Explorer and Add-ons. This can be more of a scalpel approach, and could help you save your cookies, stored passwords, etc.
    1)      Update your Windows software

    a.       High Priority
    b.      Software, Optional
    c.       Hardware, Optional
    6.       Select the updates you want, click Review and install updates, and then click Install Updates.
    2)      Turn off Internet Explorer add-ons you don't recognize
    a.       When you visit a website, an add-on might be downloaded without your knowledge, or you might be prompted to download an add-on. These add-ons might cause Internet Explorer to run slowly or become unresponsive. You should remove all Internet Explorer add-ons you don't recognize or trust.
    b.      How do I spot malicious add-ons?
                                                       i.      You can usually spot malicious add-ons under the Name column in the Manage Add-ons dialog box. Malicious add-ons might have:
    1.       Blank names.
    2.       Names that include random characters or have a sequence of numbers and letters (for example, fhriduvh.dll or f6rid8vh.exeas as opposed to Windows Messenger).
    3.       A publisher name you might not recognize.
    c.       How do I disable an add-on?
                                                       i.      Open Internet Explorer.
                                                     ii.      Depending on your version of Internet Explorer, do one of the following:
    1.       In Internet Explorer 6, click the Tools menu, and then click Manage Add-ons.
    2.       In Internet Explorer 7, click the Tools menu, point to Manage Add-ons, and then click Enable or Disable Add-ons.
    3.       In Internet Explorer 8, click the Tools menu, click Manage Add-ons, and then click Toolbars and Extension (if necessary). Also note the drop down list labeled “Show:” You are interested in Add-ons and Downloaded
    4.       Follow these steps to determine the version of Internet Explorer you're using:
    a.       Open Internet Explorer.
    b.      Press ALT+H, and then click About Internet Explorer.
    c.       How can I find which version of Internet Explorer I'm using if it won't launch?
                                                                                                                                i.      If you're unable to launch Internet Explorer you can use the following steps to determine the version you're using:
    1.       Click Start, click Run, type %ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer, and then click OK.
    2.       Right-click iexplore, click Properties, and then click Version.
    3.       Under Item name, click File Version. The version number appears under Value to the right of File Version.
    a.       Note:If the file version number begins with 6, you have Internet Explorer 6. If the file version number begins with 7, you have Internet Explorer 7. If the file version number begins with 8, you have Internet Explorer 8.
    d.      If you aren't using the latest version of Internet Explorer, consider updating.
                                                                                                                                i.      How do I update to the latest version of Internet Explorer?
    1.       Click to download and install the latest version of Internet Explorer        
                                                                                                                              ii.      How can I update Internet Explorer without launching my web browser?
    1.       Click to go online to the Windows Update website.
    2.       Click Custom to check for available updates.
    3.       In the left pane, under Select by Type, click Software, Optional.
    4.       Select the Internet Explorer update, and then click Review and install updates.
                                                    iii.      Click the name of the add-on.
    1.       Click Disable. You might have to restart Internet Explorer for the changes to take effect.
    2.       Why do some add-ons include (Not verified) in the Publisher column?
    a.       If (Not verified) is displayed in the Publisher column in the Manage Add-ons dialog box, the add-on itself is not digitally signed even though the program that installed it might be. A digital signature verifies that a file comes from the person or publisher it claims to be from, and that no one has tampered with it since it was digitally signed.
    3.       How do I disable an add-on if I can't access Internet Explorer?
    a.       Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
    b.      Double-click Internet Options.
    c.       Click the Programs tab, and then click Manage Add-ons.
    d.      Click the name of the add-on you want to disable, and then select Disable.
    e.      When the Add-on Status dialog box appears, click OK to close it.
    3)      Perform a free Full Service Scan using Windows Live OneCare safety scanner (not necessary if you don’t suspect viruses and are confident in the protection you have on your machine).
    a.       Go to the following website, and then click Full Service Scan: Windows Live OneCare safety scanner
                                                       i.      http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=56726
    If you are still experiencing issues, perform these steps. If the issue subsides, you may discontinue the remainder of the steps
    1)      Disable all add-ons (one at a time) until you can no longer reproduce the problem
    a.       Close all Internet Explorer windows.
    b.      Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
    c.       Click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Internet Options.
    d.      Click the Programs tab, and then click Manage Add-ons.
    e.      Click the name of the add-on you want to turn off, and then, under Settings, click Disable.
    f.        Click OK.
    g.       Restart Internet Explorer. Continue using Internet Explorer the same way you did when you received a crash report. If Internet Explorer continues to crash after disabling this add-on, continue with the next step.
    h.      Repeat steps b through g for each add-on listed. When you can no longer reproduce the problem, the most recently disabled add-on is the cause of the problem. Once you discover the add-on that is causing the issues, you can uninstall it (use Manufacturer’s uninstaller if one is provided) then if you wish to continue to use the add-on, install the latest version from the manufacturer’s site.

  • I need help getting my Thunderbolt display to work with Windows 7 through Bootcamp.

    I recently bought a thunderbolt display and it works great in my Mac environment.  But I recently added Bootcamp and Windows 7 (I need since my Broker Dealer only uses Internet Explorer).  Unfortunately, I can't seem to get Windows to recognize my Thunderbolt display.  Today, I spent 2 hours with a very kind advisor from Apple Support but we didn't have any success.
    Here's my setup:
    MacBook Pro (purchased new in 2011) with i7 processor
    Thunderbolt Display
    Lion OS (all updates installed)
    Bootcamp with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (all updates installed)
    With the help of Apple Support, I downloaded and reinstalled (through the repair option) all the Bootcamp drivers.  I shut down my computer, plugged in the Thunderbolt display, turned it on and booted into Windows 7.  When the Windows Welcome screen appears, it shows on my Thunderbolt display for about 2-3 seconds.  But the thunderbolt quickly goes black.  My MacBook Pro changes to a 640x480 resolution and the Thunderbolt remains blacked out--with no signs of even a single flicker.  Once the computer finishes the start-up, my MacBook Pro remains in a 640x480 resolution, with no option to change the resolution (it's grayed out in Windows control panel).  If I unplug the Thunderbolt cable from my MacBook pro, the high resolution of my MacBook pro snaps back to normal.
    To me, this seems like some type of driver problem but I must be missing something simple because it appears that Thunderbolt works with Bootcamp and Windows 7--based on some of the readings I've found here in the Apple support community.  I'm most appreciative of anyone's help here.

  • How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro?

    How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro? Or am I SOL?

    You can't. Theoretically, Thunderbolt devices that only transfer video and audio should work with Mini DisplayPort MacBooks like yours, but it's not the case of the Thunderbolt Display. Its firmware doesn't allow it to be used with non-Thunderbolt Macs, so you can't use the Thunderbolt Display with the Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
    Instead, you have to look for another screen, or you can get an adapter and connect the MacBook Pro to a TV

  • Uploading files to website not working with Safari in Windows 7

    Safari version: 5.1.7
    OS: Windows 7
    Hi,
    I am a website owner, and I have a feature on my site where users can upload large (up to 50MB) music files to my server. The feature works in Firefox on OSX & Windows platforms and it also works in Safari on OSX. The uploading feature is not working with Safari for Windows. Do you have any idea why and how to fix this? It can't be an issue with my server as it works in other browsers fine and works fine in Safari for OS X.
    If you have any information on how to solve this or things for me to try to rectify this for use with Windows operating system it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    GREAT NEWS!!!!
    I have solved this issue myself with some help from my a user on Microsoft Forums. The issue stems from the mime type of each Browser Chrome, IE, & Safari for Windows defaults as audio/wav. When the mime type is changed to audio/x-wav everything works. Firefox defaults to audio/x-wav and when changed to audio/wav it DOES NOT work.
    Once I input some code in my .php upload page to change the mimetype if audio/wav is detected everything works GREAT!!!
    So Here is what you need to do: Find your upload page and input this code:
    echo "<p>MIME Type: ".$_FILES["file"]["type"]."</p>";   
    right before your "If/then" statement of file type. For me it was near line 30 in my upload.php page, but I'm sure this is different for everyone.
    This will detect and DISPLAY the default mime type of your browser on the error page when your upload doesn't work. Once you know what mime type works for your file type then you can change your "if/then" statement for mime type upload to change your mime type to the correct one.
    I don't want to give the code here, because I'm sure it's specific to your file types and your site construction, but this should lead you on the right track.
    ***This is the solution if you ARE NOT ABLE to upload any certain file in a certain Browser. It has to do with mime type construction***
    I hope this helps others like it helped me!!!!!

  • Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009?

    Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009 (mini display port? The image passes through the mini display port to the monitor, but the connections (Firewire, USB, ethernet) do not work. Can you confirm?

    I'd love to get confirmation if this is the case too.   I was all ready to buy the new iMac until I found I couldn't use it as an external monitor for my DisplayPort-based MacBook Pro.  And then I was all ready to buy the new display.
    I really hope Apple hasn't restricted this to purely Thunderbolt-equipped Macs. I know I'll end up upgrading my MacBook at some point but I can't do so just yet, and this means I'll have to go for some third-party display, camera, speakers etc for the new Mac Mini which is crazy.

    Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype. 
    Microphone works fine with Quictime on another mac, so I do know how to use it. The one where it is not working (A) had an external microphone and camera attached earlier, and indeed it does work with that external microphone, but not with the internal microphone selected; and (B) had RealPlayer installed previously.
    Any suggestions, please?

    all on Linux
    Description: We have an exiting environment with 6 ZfS Servers and now we
    brought up a new Server for another location. I configured all same as on
    the other Server and the new one created all NAL-Apps at the new location.
    But in the Application Site list on the golden App is this Application
    missing. So I clicked on the Link up site list on the Distribution Screen
    in C1. On ApplicationSite list the App from the new location is missing.
    So I removed all and added the new from the new location and now i see all
    in the application site list.When I install an app on the client on the
    new location NAL is connecting alway th the same (wrong location-server
    and i get an msi error 1612 or id=53272 with path=\Wrong serverpath to
    file.
    I looked on the other tab on C1 at the golden app an I see the backlinks
    are going to all other servers without the new one. Software installation
    on other locations are ok
    Regards

    Andreas,
    I forgot to mention that you can also set the loging level on the Distributor and the Subscriber to 6. to do this at the Zenworks Server Management prompt type "setconsolelevel 6" if you want to capture this to the log file ted.log then use "setfilelevel 6"
    Next delete the Distribution from the Subscriber and then re-push the channel.
    What we are looking for here in the log is the creation of the object and the linking information about the gold object. it should look like this (not the failure part ;-))) )
    In this excerpt you will see the entry
    Golden App =
    This should be were the link is to
    You can check this both ways in the Golden App and in the Distributed Application.
    Here is a log from me that shows this info as an example of what you should be looking for.

  • Polarioid pogo printer not working with ipad and iphone

    And I can not believe how that truly *****... I am traveling through the states and bought the pogo to print on the road... Only to find out that it does not work with ipad and does not work with iphone... Unless I jailbreak my phone which I don't really want to do...
    Apple wants us to go mobile and clouding and all those things, yet, when we do go mobile and try a mobile life style, we are encountering so much technical crap that we loose the will to live...
    I could have spend the hundred dollar for the pogo to have pics printed out in every kiosk in the country...
    WWhen is Apple going to come to its senses about little life savers like the pogo and bluetooth???????
    Is anyone aware of a work around so I can print on the go? And a solution that does not involve a programmers brain because my single braincell is not working while traveling... It needs to be easy!

    To cut through all the rage and anger and "knowing" who wanted what, the Pogo has been out for a year or so, well before Mr. Jobs' passing, and Apple did not make any mention of supporting printing on anything other than Airprint compatible printers.
    Since Airprint is a Wi-Fi/ethernet thing, Polaroid would have to make a significant redesign to the Pogo.  Considering that the first iPhones only supported Bluetooth headsets and Apple didn't provide any indications about increasing Bluetooth support, Polaroid's decision for the Pogo to be Bluetooth was obviously not with iOS devices in mind.  This is why initially Polaroid had links on the FAQ to tell Apple to add Bluetooth printing support (so that in effect, asking Apple to pay for the expenses to make the iPhone compatible with the Pogo, rather than Polaroid paying to make the Pogo compatible with iOS.)
    I come from a photograpic background.  I got the Pogo as soon as it came out.  I quite literally was on Polaroid's website every day checking to see when I could order it.  Having "instant" sticker prints is wonderful at family picnics with all the kids.  While it would be great to be able to get Pogo prints from anyone's iPhone, I stopped holding my breath when Apple announced Airprint, which came well after the Pogo was released.  So I took that as the sign that it was probably never going to happen.  (I knew that the Pogo wasn't iOS compatible when I bought it so not having compatiblity is not a deal-breaker for me.  But, yes, it would be nice.)
    I now use a Polaroid Z340 since it's a 14 megapixel camera that prints larger 3x4 Zink prints.  Polaroid makes the GL10, which is basically a Pogo using the same printer as the Z340.  But it's still Bluetooth only.   So while I sympathize with the desire to have a really compact portable printer like the Pogo, iOS compatibility just does not seem to be on the horizon.  IMHO, it would be more realistic that Polaroid create an app to do Bluetooth printing.  But considering Polaroid's financial issues, I'm not holding my breath

  • My iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    my iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    How did you buy iPhoto? Did it come preinstalled on your computer with Lion or later, or did it come with Snowleopard on system installer disks?
    Which version of iPhoto?
    If you have a version of iPhoto '11 and it is showing on the Purchased tab of the App Store, with your Apple ID, then delete iPhoto from the Applications folder  (don't empty the Trash) and download iPhoto again from the Purchased tab.
    If that does not work, contact The App Store Support  from the Quick Links on the AppStore main page.

  • Webcam on 2008 Mac Pro with Bootcamp and Windows 7.  Cannot get it to work.

    Have windows 7 Professional on my mac, using Bootcamp
    I cannot get any webcam to work.
    So far, I have used ....
    A Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac. No app can detect it.
    A Logitech C510 Webcam (for PC) No app can detect it.
    An Agama V-2025 Webcam (for both Mac & PC and supposedly no additional drivers needed). No app can detect it.
    I called Logitech and they said as it was too complicated for them to support, (i.e. Windows on a mac with bootcamp) and so they couldn't help.
    Any ideas would be most appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Use bootcamp. I have been a loyal Adobe guy for 12+ years, but now that I have upgraded to mac...Adobe just sucks. I have not been able to finish a project yet do to the shabby CS4 media encoder.
