Using HDMI splitter on a TV with one HDMI Input?

Can you use Apple TV with a HDMI splitter for a TV that has only on HDMI input? 

it's hit or miss many people report issues with such splitters likely a missing or poor implementation of the hdcp is the cause of the issues

    can i use a 2010 24 led screen with one of the new 2012 macs with thunderbolt technology?

    Yes. Any standalone display which can be connected to a Mini DisplayPort, with or without an adapter, can be plugged into a Thunderbolt port without any additional adapters.

    Wow. Okay...
    I'll let the real veterans in this forum tackle your issues one after the other. But, I can tell you, all will be well.
    My only comment would be re: your computer specs:

    To be completely honest, FCPX is a RAM hog. It just is. But, RAM is relatively cheap, and the pay-off is good.
    4GB is right on the edge, IMHO. 16G is ideal.
    I wish you luck, hang in there, and standby for more help.

  • Using Cinema Display and Samsung LCD with One Mini

    I have been trying unsuccessful to output the DVI of my mini to my 23" Apple Cinema and my Samsung 4669F (native resolution of 1920x 1080p). I have tried various methods including using the Gefen 1:2 DVI Splitter (Ext-DVI-144) and a DVI-HDMI cable to the samsung in conjunction with SwitchResX, all to no avail.
    Any help?- I wish to mirror the same display on both LCD screen simultaneously?- However, I would settle for a solution of a convenient A/B switch? ANy tips?
    What about an external USB video card for the Mini- that should work too?- any tips?
    I used SwitchResX because I determine that because the 23" ACD was 1920 x1200, the Samsung was not displaying because the Gefen splitter box was sending the same signal in 1920 x1200 to the Samsung, which was not accepted by the Samsung whose native resolution is 1920 x 1080p. However, once I switched the resolution to 1920 x 1080 to force an out of the mini to that resolution, there was no display at all on the 23" ACD and I had to do a safe mode reboot to recover the display on the 23" ACD?-
    One would think that it would be relatively easier for Apple to create a script that would allow a person to display 1920 x 1080p on the Cinema Display, a script that overrided the message from the ACD that tells the mac mini to stretch any resolution to 1920x1200 before it gets to the 23" - This way I could use SwitchResX and the Gefen splitter to output 1920x1080p to both displays at once (of course the 23" ACD would have to have some black borders on the top and bottom. Why doesn't apple make this available? - Spent $900 on this monitor and the Mini has a DVI output- why should the Gefen splitter be rendered useless simply because my other display is a different native resolution.

  • Using Facetime on two iPod Touches with one Apple ID

    My wife and I both have new iPod Touches.
    We use a single Apple ID between the two, so all app and song purchases are on one account.
    But it appears we need separate Apple ID's to use Facetime? Is it possible for her to create her own Apple ID just for Facetime, but continue to apply purchases to my Apple ID account?

    Is it possible for her to create her own Apple ID just for Facetime, but continue to apply purchases to my Apple ID account?
    Yes.
    (1) Some users find that they can create one more free email account and associate it with FaceTime as a separate caller iD associated with the same FaceTime iD.
    Then assure that each iPod is configured with a unique Email address showing for the
    FaceTime Account in Settings > FaceTime
    (2) If you have already configured them separately but the problem persists, establish a new Apple iD specifically for use on the second iPod:
      http://appleid.apple.com/
    (3) I think you can configure the same iD for the iTunes Store in both iPod's by entering the same
    info in the Settings > Store of both your iPods.
    However, remember you purchase items via your account, not a specific device.
    If you both synch to the same computer, these articles may help you:

  • Panasonic TV. Apple TV works with one HDMI input but not the other.

    I have the latest version of Apple Tv and an older Panasonic TX32LXD60 Tv. The TV has two HDMI inputs. Apple TV works perfectly on HDMI1, but shows nothing on HDMI2. I am using exactly the same cable. HDMI2 works fine with my DVD player. Can anyone explain how I can get HDMI2 to accept Apple TV?

    Update - Panasonic support wrote the following:
    "Thank you for your e-mail enquiry regarding your Panasonic product.
    I have discussed your issue with our head office AV technica ldept & they have confirmed that as the DVD player works on the HDMI input there is nothig wrong with the TV. It may be there is an incompatability with the apple TV interface & the TV. Nothing can be done to solve this as there would be not adjustments you could make to the HDMI inputs on the TV."
    so according to them its not their product!
    I have solved my problem by getting a Samsung TV - brilliant picture and no technical problems (so far!!)

  • Does the mini displayport able to transfer audio and video to an external monitor (example: a tv) using a 2011 13" MacBook Pro with an hdmi cable?

    I was wondering this, because I want to hook up my 2011 MacBook Pro to a external monitor (TV) using an hdmi cable.  This would be heplful before I buy a mini displayport to hdmi adapter, and then maybe find out that the mini displayport might not transfer audio, only video.

    Yes, min Displayport supports audio and video for the 2011 MBP 13" via HDMI.

  • Using app store on two laptops with one apple id

    Hello,  I have two laptops - MacBook Pro and MacBook Air.  I use the app store on my MacBook Pro frequently.  I have recently purchased a MacBook Air.  I logged in to the app store, using my apple id, on my new MacBook Air to install apps.  However,  when I search for an app it says installed (which is actually installed in my MacBook Pro).  Is there a way to get around this?  And install apps on a new Mac using the same apple id.  All my products are linked to one apple id.   Do I need to create a new apple id to install apps on a new laptop.
    Also,  until recently I was residing in the United States.  I have recently changed my address to India in my apple account.  The app store is now linked to the Indian store.

    Click on the Purchases icon in the App Store's toolbar. Locate the apps you wish to download. You should see an Install/Download button to the right of the entries.

  • How can I use 2 iPhones, 2 iTunes account with one PC?

    My boyfriend has an iPhone 3gs and I have an iPhone 4. We both have our own iTunes accounts as we got our phones at separate times.

    Nothing will be wiped from your phone. Each phone's backup is separate. Here is an Apple article that you should take a look at:

  • Anyone with experience using a Fosmon 3-way HDMI Splitter Hub Switch Port Cable Cord?

    Would like to feed my new MacBook Pro laptop and an existing Dell Latitude laptop into the same 25" Hanspree HDMI monitor.  Appears that the above Fosmon 3-way HDMI splitter Hub Switch could work since the input feed is manually selectable on the Splitter Hub.  Before purchasing this and accompanying cables, has anyone had positive experience with use of this Splitter?

    Yes, you can connect an HDMI monitor directly up to a 2011 using an HDMI cable.

  • HDMI Splitter Issues

    I"m using an HDMI splitter with my Apple TV. Bascially I've run out if inputs and this little device, I think made by Belkin enables me to share Apple TV and DirectTV with one HDMI Input. All content plays fine from Apple TV with the exception of Rented Movies. I keep getting a message that states that my HDMI connection is not supported. Any ideas of what splitter I could use that would be supported? Thanks!

    Hi Grant! When you say "switching cables" to you mean reverse the cables I'm using now? I tried that and sometimes the rented movie plays and sometimes not. Does HDCP have to do with the switcher or the HDMI cables? Thanks taking the time to reply?
