Type of Video Display "Out" Port on Mid-2006 and mid-2007 MBP's?

Howdy
The subject line above kind of says it all. I would like to know what type of video out port exists on these two models of MBP's: mid-2006 and mid-2007? In other words, what kind of Apple adapter would I have to buy to use these ports? Mini-DisplayPort, etc.?
Thanks!
DaveW

Kappy, thank you for your fast reply. But, I am puzzled by it. A standard DVI port is rather Large and has many pins and the crosswise electrical flat pin. Are you saying that this large type of standard DVI port is present and physically fits on the edge of a Mac Book Pro?

Transferring from the camcorder using S-Video IN/OUT port possible?

My DV port on my Panasonic NV-GS70 camcorder broke and thus I can't use the firewire cable anymore to transfer video on my Mac.
Repairing the port doesn't seems a viable inexpensive option. (Based on what I read on the Web.)
Now, the camcorder also has a S-Video IN/OUT port.
My questions:
- Is it actually possible to use this port to transfer video to a MAC?
- If so, what kind of cable do I need?
I read about USB A/V capture device (such as this one: http://www.pinecomputer.com/dduusb20veca.html) but didn't manage to find one specifically for MAC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

The Eyetv Hybrid from El Gato will do this, and it will export to old versions of iMovie. However, I did a test on analog 8mm passed through an 8mm digital 8.
I tried both dv and s-video. Unfortunately the s-video would only import in black and white. I suspect this was due to the analog conversion, but I did not go back and test running digital dv through the s-video.
Of course, the same test through FireWire in dv was in full color. Just take that as a datapoint. It could just be my camera.
In your case, I would recommend that you monitor eBay and pick up a used dv camcorder.

HT201364 What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 ?

What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 that couses the OS X Mavericks not to run on it?

Neither the 2006 or 2007 MacBooks will run Mavericks, nor will the white plastic cased 2008 models. The oldest MacBook that will run Mavericks is the Aluminum case Late 2008 one.
Looking at the specs, I think that is because prior to the aluminum 2008 model, all MacBooks used less powerful Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) graphics processors with (at most) 160 MB of available video memory. AFAIK, neither Intel nor Apple ever released 64 bit drivers for these GMA graphics processors, so when OS X dropped support for booting into 32 bit mode in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) that meant the newest OS these MacBooks could support was Leopard (OS X 10.7), the last version to support 32 bit mode.
It is also likely that the GMA's, with their limited memory & support for parallel processing, can't effectively support technologies like Grand Central Dispatch that system services in the newer OS versions increasingly rely on to speed up more than graphics rendering.
So, even if one could find a 64 bit driver for the GMA's, the system probably would be too slow at too many things to be practical. (Personally, I have a while 2008 MacBook, & I think the "best fit" OS for it is Snow Leopard. As far as I'm concerned, Lion is basically a beta version of Mountain Lion with too many rough edges & limited user choice to run on mine.)

Macbook stuck in headphone (optical digital-out port) mode. Plugging and unplugging headphone jack no help.

Stuck in headphone (optical digital-out port) mode. What do I do? Plugging and unplugging headphone jack no help.

Do you see a red light in the headphone jack?? If you do, then the microswitch is stuck and you need to turn it off. Try poking it with a toothpick.
If you don't see a red light, then try resetting the SMC and PRAM and see if these helps. Here are the links.

I have looked through the threads on this sight but cant find my issue.
Please Help.

Hello G E2
You have made a good start and already considered a couple of the most likely possibilities that could have caused your problem:
• CPU performance settings and
• multiple apps running
re: CPU performance setting: I am not certain, but your MBA may run even faster when it is connected to power that when running on battery, even with the processor performance setting configured for best performance. If you are not already running on AC power, do a test while plugged in and see if that helps.
re: multiple apps: Consider the possibility of background widgets or apps that might be running. If you have not already tested this way, restart your Mac to eliminate possible widgets, quit all startup items, verify that Spotlight is not your indexing disk, and verify that no Time Machine backups are running. Then test video recording again.
If you do not get your problem corrected otherwise, consider the relevant suggestions in this list of possibilites regarding A/V recording sync issues:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7089133&#7089133
Some of them may not be relevant to your MBA, but you may find something helpful there.
If your problem is as bad after any actions you try from that list, when you post back for other ideas, give the details of any new info you found as a result of the additional checks / tests / actions. We will try to offer detailed suggestions in reply to your specific new info and questions.

External Midi Plugin and Midi Output Delay

This one is fairly esoteric but has anyone run into the following problem or have a workaround?
I'm trying to incorporate the External midi plugin into my setup so I can use the new midi plugins, but I cannot correctly calibrate my system when using it. My calibration technique invoolves setting delay for each synth to the slowest of the bunch and then compensating for all in the Sync > All Midi Out > Delay preference. However, when you use the external midi plugin this control has no effect. Running the synths as standard midi does work but then you lose the option of using the new midi plugins.
If verified, does anyone know if this issue will be resolved in an update?
Thanks,
David

Pancenter,
Thanks for replying. I haven't had internet in a couple days and I'm back on now. Time Warner Cable is sometimes unstable around my area.
Logic:
I've been trying different things for the last couple days and nothing works.
I replayed and recorded a 4 bar piano part and made sure that the hits were as close to the grid as possible. It sounded fine on MIDI Recording. But on MIDI Playback Here's what I found: The Midi data is not misplaced, it's right where it should be. But the actual sound is delayed on playback.
I have a PreSonus Monitoring Station. The outputs of the Motif go straight into the Traveler (In 5-6). The Main outputs on the Traveler go into the PreSonus Monitoring Station as well as my KRK Monitors. I control the volume from the Monitor Station.
Software Monitoring and Independent Monitoring Level are both enabled.
I don't get it...Please help.

I have an Ipod Video 60 GB (1st Gen from 2006) and I cannot get it to show up in my iTunes version 11.0 that I just upgraded to. It won't show up as a disk under Disk Utility either. I cannot get it to stop saying "Do Not Disconnect" to use it either.

I have had the same issue with my Ipod Nano (bought 2011). It would not show up in Itunes on my macbook unibody (2009). Please help!

Hi mafiose15,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
You can find the instructions in this article:

Using multiple MIDI in and out ports... is there a any solution?

Hi Guys,
I've been using Logic Pro for about 3 or 4 years, and have always struggled with the fact that when using external MIDI instruments, there are not separate drop-down menus for PORT IN and PORT OUT, where I could choose which port would be used on my MIDI interface.
I was previously a Cubase user, and it had these two ports, so I could easily choose, for example: "MIDI IN: Port B" and "MIDI OUT: Port C", and MIDI would be routed to those ports.
Logic only has one drop-down for selecting ports, and that is for the outgoing MIDI signal only.
My problem is that when we want to record say two synths at the same time, each on its own MIDI track, the incoming signals are blended and played on both active tracks.
There IS a tick-box option in Project Settings, called Auto demix by channel if multitrack recording, but this only works when all the channels in question are armed for recording. If we are just jamming ideas (but want to have MIDI set up ready to record... therefore local is off on each synth, etc...), it appears there is no way to separate the incoming MIDI signals so they only go back to their respective ports.
This issue has now compounded with the addition of two new synths in my studio... suddenly it's even more crucial to be able to easily separate the MIDI ports for each of the four synths.
I have never delved into the Environment, but was chatting to the guys in the music store I go to, and they were saying there might be a way of setting up the specific MIDI routing I am looking for, in the Environment.
I would love any assistance you could give me. This has become such a frustration that I have even looked at moving back to Cubase (but the way it handles lots of tracks at low latency on Mac is stopping me, at the moment! The trial version showed this up as a real issue, compared to Logic!).
I am of course secretly hoping that Logic Pro 10 will have a re-thought MIDI setup, with simple in and out port drop-downs for each MIDI track. But that's a long shot, and Logic 10 could still be ages away!
Any help an experienced user can offer me would really be appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike

Video displays text garbled up.

As I scroll through the text of my Mail list, a message, or text file; the video displays a gargle mix of letters and to solve the issue; I have to slowly scroll the text out and back in so it will display correctly. Is this a software or hardware problem. I just got my computer a few days ago. I am worried!!
Thank you in advanced.

This same garbled text is happening in FINDER. How do we fix this? I am starting to feel like I am runing a PC

White Macbook (Mid 2006) Trackpad problem

I have a white Macbook from Mid 2006 and it has been functioning fine all these years. However just yesterday, it developed a trackpad problem.
I am still able to move the cursor but nothing happens when I click the trackpad button.
I then bought an external mouse. However the problem did not go away entirely. The external mouse would work just fine (I would be able to click with it) if I did not touch the trackpad. However on the few occasions where I accidentally touched the trackpad, the external mouse would suddenly suffer the same fate as the trackpad, i.e. I was still able to move the cursor but I could not click with the external mouse.
I managed to alleviate the problem by checking the "Ignore trackpad when mouse is present" option in my System Preferences, thereby preventing any accidental touches of the trackpad from affecting the external mouse. However I hope to get to the root of this sudden and mysterious problem, rather than sweeping it under a "Ignore trackpad when mouse is present" option.
I have tried resetting the PRAM and it did not solve the problem.

Might want to check: Apple->System Preferences->Universal Access , click on the Mouse & Trackpad Tab, then Make sure "Mouse Keys" are off , make sure "press the option key five times .. etc" is unchecked, make "ignore trackpad when mouse keys is on" is unchecked. Check That 1st, because it does sound like a preference problem .. If I think of another one I'll ring in ... Good Luck

Pawtec UltraSlim External USB 3.0 on MacBook Pro 1,1 A1150 (Mid 2006) with 10.6.8 Snow Leopard

Hi,
I've quite a problem with my brand new Pawtec UltraSlim External USB 3.0 BluRay Burner (it is build around the MATSHITA BD-MLT UJ265 burner).
Writer works great with MacBook Pro5,5 13" A1278 (mid 2009), but things are completely different on MacBook Pro 1,1 A1150 (Mid 2006). When I insert a CD or DVD, burner tries to read it but after second stops. This pattern repeats over and over again. The only effect of all these attempts is burner unpleasant sound. The same thing happens on the Windows XP installed as a bootcamp on this MacBook (Mid 2006). I tried to solve the problem in the Disc Utility, but it doesn't recognise the writer properly. The writer appears there only for a few seconds and then disappears. What is more, when it is visible, all the buttons (options) are disactive.
As I said, this problem only occurs on the older MacBook Pro 1,1 A1150 (Mid 2006) with 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.
On the newer MacBook Pro 5,5 13" A1278 (mid 2009) also with 10.6.8 Snow Leopard everythng works fine. Even on Windows XP installed as bootcamp on the newer Mac, burner works with flying colours.
If the software (Operating systems) are the same, that makes clear that something must be wrong with the hardware. But is the difference between these two MacBooks so great, that it makes impossible to read simple CD/DVD from external drive?
I didn't find any drivers/software for this burner on Pawtec as well as on Matshita webpage. PatchBurn works only up to Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger so this also isn't a solution.
Have You ever encounter this kind of problem? I will be gratefull for any ideas, solutions.
Thank You
Greetings
Jacoszek

Anyone has any advice? Or the problem is just the age and incompatibility of the old MacBook Pro 1,1 A1150 (Mid 2006) and the best way will be to change it into something newer?

Memory Confusion and manuals (early 2006 v Mid 2006)

Hi
I'm trying to upgrade memory from the default 512MB - but I'm confused about why there are two manuals for the iMac on the Apple site - early 2006 and mid 2006 (both intel).
One says memory must be installed in pairs - other doesn't.
I don't think the Intel iMac had been fiddled with during its lifetime.

Oh - I think I see - they used to ship with a single
512 - and now they ship with 2 x 256 - pity - a
single 512 makes more sense to me.
That is NOT correct. The "early 2006," 17-inch (@ $1299) and 20-inch (@ $1699) models with SuperDrive still ship with a single 512MB memory module as the base amount, with another slot left empty. These are sold retail to the public.
The Education model is the "mid-2006" model, and it is not available as a retail item.
