Tv/ sky and maybe Playstation 2 on a mac

hi there guys! just wondering if there was any hardware that allows me to connect my imac to sky or ps2 via scart so i can use it as a tv when im not doing work. please let me know
many thanks, too anyone that can help

I use EyeTv 200 but i'm waiting for the update of the software from Elgato (it's the best choice for sky).
If you want to see PS2 signal and sky it's better to use Pinnacle DVC (cheaper than eyetv) with a video software (for example Vidi that works with IMac Core Duo).
Bye.

  • I want to download Firefox 17 to a jump drive on a Windows machine and install it on my Mac. Can I do this?

    I live in Mountain View and use Google WiFi which is provided by Google for the City of Mountain View. For the past few months, they have been having a BIG problem with the corruption of downloads. Even teensy tiny ones. Perhaps you've heard about it since you're also in Mountain View. They have not responded to repeated posts from the forum... I have an iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I haven't been able to update my software. I go to Lane Medical Library at Stanford to use the Windows machines there. I load whatever standalone software that I can onto a jump drive and install it at home. Unfortunately, some sites (like Apple and maybe even Mozilla!) recognize the computer you're on and only allow you to download software compatible with the machine that you are actually sitting at. This means that I can't reinstall Safari because I can't get a copy of it. And it looks like I might not be able to install Firefox 17.0 either. At least, that's what I'm trying to find out. "We've made some educated guesses about your current browser and operating system." See what I mean? So when I go to the library, will I be able to download a copy of Firefox 17.0 for the Mac and install it on my computer at home? Thanks!

    You can find the latest Firefox release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:
    *Firefox 17.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Download and save the DMG file for Mac on the jump drive and install the program in the usual way.

  • Authentication problem - solved, but maybe a bug in Mac OS X?

    Hi,
    I've a rather small installation with only a handful of users configured on a Mac mini (Mac OS X Server, 10.6.8). All of them use the mail, calendar and addressbook server on the Mac, nothing more. They use it with Mac, iPhone and iPad. Everything worked fine for months but suddenly all of them were faced authentication problems: it was not possible to login on the imap server, the calendar server, the addressbook server. It was possible to login using the admin account on the server directly. Moreover, all users disappeared from the workgroup manager, however they still were available on the servers LDAP server and findable using ldapsearch.
    First, I used to completely restart the server to solve the problem, but it reappeared after only few hours again.
    Second, after understanding more about the authentication process, I found the "killall DirectoryService" was sufficient to solve the problem, but it still reappeared after few hours.
    Then I found the, once the problem occured, there was nearly no more communication to the local LDAP server on port 389 on localhost. When everything was working fine, the was a lot of such communication, including queries for usernames, when a login attempt was made. I started a "tcpdump -n -i lo0 port 389" and waited for the problem again. After the problem occured, I found in the pcap files that there were a few final query attempts, actually attempts the open a port 389 TCP connection to the slapd running on localhost, which were answered with a TCP RST. Then, no more attempts were made until l restarted the DirectoryService. Using the logfile of the slapd I found that this happened exactly at the time the slapd was stopped and restarted. And - surprisingly for me - stopping and restarting the slapd happened exactly once an hour.
    I then found that it happened exactly at the time the time machine backup process was started and indeed it was possible to trigger the event of restarting the slapd by manually starting a time machine backup.
    (Indeed, I switched my backup strategy from SuperDuper to time machine the other day and maybe that was the time the problem occured for the first time. I know that time machine is not considered as the best backup strategy for a server but I wanted to try on my own.)
    Google helped my to find a hint that time machine will actually stop and restart slapd - which is a generally a good idea, since otherwise a backup from some open database files would be made, which could work but may fail. So, I thing, someone of the developers thought about that problem too and has considered time machine for backups of a server.
    However, a not running slapd can not answer queries from a DirectoryService and a stopping or starting process might indeed end up with TCP SYNs answered with TCP RST.
    My solution was to disable time machine again and from that time the problem does not occur again.
    I'm wondering why the DirectoryService process isn't starting to query the slapd again after a failed connection. Isn't this a bug? After this experience I consider time machine as not only the not preferred backup solution for a server but as completely incompatible with Mac OS X server - although, as I said, it seems that someone thought about backing up the LDAP database using time machine.
    (On a Lion server this problem does not occur, the slapd will not be stopped and restarted when time machine is running. Moreover, I saw a com.apple.slapd.start notification in the slapd.log ... maybe this tells DirectoryService to try again.)
    Cheers,

    Another problem I found with the MacOS X key bindings: the 6 key doesn't work!
    In the config that ships with SQL Developer, I found this:
    <Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">
    <first class="java.lang.String">DOCUMENT_6_CMD_ID</first>
    <second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">
    <data>
    <Item class="javax.swing.KeyStroke">6</Item>
    </data>
    </second>
    </Item>
    which should be:
    <Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">
    <first class="java.lang.String">DOCUMENT_6_CMD_ID</first>
    <second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">
    <data>
    <Item class="javax.swing.KeyStroke">meta 6</Item>
    </data>
    </second>
    </Item>

  • What is a safe reliable playstation emulator for mac

    What is a safe, reliable playstation emulator for mac ?

    I have yet to see a 'safe & reliable' PSX emulator on OS X - they crash and are buggy & generally unreliable from the few I have seen.
    You can look at PCSX (PS1)
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/pcsxosx/
    and PCSX2 (PS2)
    http://pcsx2mac.net/downloads/
    These are cumbersome to install and may require you to get files from your original Sony hardware.
    I'm hoping someone else can post a better option, these are not that great.

  • ARD window with Starry sky and lock

    Hi,
    I am having a problem with ARD 3.3.2. From my Mac Pro I can control my MacBook Pro. From my MacBook Pro I cannot gain access to My Mac Pro's screen. Sharing settings are the same for both.
    On the MacBook Pro in the ARD window I click on the Control button and I get a window with the Snow Leopard starry sky and no other objects in the screen EXCEPT a lock displayed in the middle of the screen for the 5 seconds after starry sky screen 1st displays. The only other objects are the 3 buttons in the left of the title bar.
    If it matters, I get the exact same symptom with BTMM.
    Anybody have any ideas one how to get rid of the lock and have the contents of my Mac Pro display on my MacBook Pro using ARD?
    Thanks
    Craig Dudley

    Well, I deleted my Mac Pro from the Remote Desktop on the MacBook Pro system and then re-added it and everything works fine. Should have tried this 1st before posting.

  • Kernel panic and distorted screen on startup - mac book pro c.2008 on os x 10.4! HELP!

    I've had my mac book pro since 2007/8, it's on os x 10.4, and has worked well until last night when the screen froze in a crazy distorted pattern and I had to turn it off. Now it kernel panics every time i turn it on and it attempts to start up with the same crazy distorted pattern across the loading screen and even the kernel panic message.
    I don't have the start up discs with me.
    I've tried the troubleshooting for kernel panics i.e.
    1. holding [shift] when start up  - did nothing
    2. holding [option + command + p + r] when start up - chimed three times but wouldn't load  after this
    3. holding [command + s] on start up to boot in single user mode - it loads the logs but with the same crazy distortion and when i try to exit to boot in single user mode it won't do anything
    so that is where i am up to... really need my laptop for work and about to leave the country to travel so need it asap - i'm in melbourne and the apple store is miles out of city - any suggestions on reliable apple retailers also gratefully received...
    anyone any ideas on the damage/ cause/ possible solution???
    i love my mac. please don't die.

    If this happened spontaneously and not as the result of a software update or any other change that you made, then it's probably due either to a hardware failure or to data corruption. There isn't much you can do without the installation disc, and maybe not even with the disc. If you can boot in single-user mode, run fsck as prompted on the screen. If it finds problems, run it again.
    Any authorized Apple dealer should be able to provide service, but it may take more time than you have.

  • I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account?

    I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account? I have been able to log into what appears to be three of the four iCloud accounts I have. Two of them seem to be remarkably similar, and one appears to be only for my MacBook.I think I know which one my iPhone is backing up to, as I successfully restored from a back-up last week. The fourth iCloud account I can't access via password or security questions. Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I just got my mac a month ago so go easy on me but I was just working with the pages that was already on it, and then today I know it updated, and now I am unable to open a lot of my documents!:(  Idk what you mean by the icloud version lol sorry! As for the version, when I open pages from my apps and click 'about' it says version 5.1? And when I open the document it just goes grey and kind of blinks and doesnt open? No error message or any indication of why it will not open now when I for sure have opened it in the past! Andddd for the OS X I think it is 10.9.1 ??

    We have developed a desktop application using Flash software and published the same for MAC environment. When we double click on the index.app file, the application is working perfectly in Mac 10.6.7 at our office. But if the same index.app file is double clicked in Mac 10.6.7 at out clients location, its not opening. For your information the client is able to open this same application by double clicking on index.swf file. The main problem is that client is not able to open the application using index.app file at their office whereas we are able to do so at our office. Can anyone give some suggestions to sort this problem?

    The most common reason is different versions of Flash, or different versions of web browsers used.  Some users may elect to not have Flash installed at all because of the processor overhead of Flash.  If you are going to make an application for a client, check what operating system and browser versions they are using first.  Then determine if a stand alone application is required, or if they have the necessary plugins to run specific browser enhanced code.
