Viewing shows with an external HDMI TV

Running FCP on a 27" iMac and would like to hook up an external TV to view shows from within FCP. Currently outputting then reviewing on an HDMI TV because I don't get an accurate view of the show from either viewer in FCP. Can I hook up an HDMI TV using a Mini Display (plugged into a Thunderbolt port) to HDMI cable AND get an accurate representation of the video with this setup? This would save so much time.

Yes, you can output to your HDMI TV using a mini displayport to HDMI adapter. Note that no all adapters carry audio, so make sure you choose one that does.
The TV will appear like another monitor your mac can use. You can elect to Show Viewers on Second Display and then put the viewer on full screen.

Using my mid 2012 MB Air with an external HDMI monitor question.

Am wanting to use my mid 2012 MacBook Air 13 inch running Mavericks with an external HDMI monitor.
I've got a thunderbolt to HDMI adapter which I've plugged in and am able to redirect the sound to my speaker equipped external monitor by choosing it in the sound output preferences box.
BUT I've got a picture displayed on both my air and monitor.
My question - is it possible to switch the display so that it only shows on the external monitor - I'm only wanting to display the same picture on both displays.
Finally is it possible to show one screen on the Air and a different one on the HDMI Monitor.
Thankd

Try  > System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement > Mirror Displays (or not).

Possible to view presentations with embedded clips on the ipad from an external wifi drive?

Hello,
first of all I am happy to have joined this community, my name is Chris from Germany.
I am wondering if this setting is possible:
I have bought an external wifi drive (Seagate Satellite Goflex) as well as the iPad4.
I am giving lectures (powerpoint and keynote presentations containing lots of embedded video clips).
Now I would like to show these presentations with my iPad connected to the Wifi drive.
You have to download a special Seagate App on the iPad to be able to see the data on the external wifi drive - I have managed to open the powerpoint files in the App (unfortunately keynote files are not supported by the Seagate App) but when I open them with keynote or goodreader the embedded media will always be removed.
Is this the end of the story or are there any solutions (i.e. with other hardware devices or software)?
Have a nice New Years Eve and thanks in advance,
Chris

yes and no ...
I have figured that out:
First of all: you can`t just view presentations on an external device without importing them into your iPad (at least when you plan to show slides with embedded clips) - goodreader, filebrowser, dropbox ... just show you "static" slides.
When you import a ppt-presentation into keynote all the hyperlinks, embedded clips ... are gone - no chance.
But ... in keynote you are able to "embed" video clips when you drag and drop them directly into the slide alowing "copy video into the document" as well (that is "vital") - the files are getting larger but you don`t have to add a clip when you transfer it to another device (i.e. the iPad) - they are "fixed" in the document..
Now seagate goflex has the problem that you just can`t open/view keynote presentations - but there is a solution:
hacksatellite firmware. When you install that you can go into keynote, activate WebDav, import a keynote file from the external drive, edit it and send it back to the external drive - so: import (can`t live without that), show or edit the presentation, copy it again to the external device and delete the presentation in the iPad (to save storage) is the way you can get the optimum from the iPad at the moment.
Correct me if there is any other more comfortable solution.
Thanks for your reply Daniel,
Christian

Color Corrector's Frame Viewer Split Not Showing Up On External Monitor

Kind've a long title - sorry - but . . . here's my question:
Why am I not able to see the Frame Viewer's split on my external monitor?
A further, more detailed explanation of the problem:
I recently purchased Ripple Training's Color Correction with Andrew Balis. It's very, very imformative and I think will help a lot when it comes time to begin color correcting the feature I'm working on. The section I'm on shows the Frame Viewer tab in the Tool Bench window that presents itself when one opens Color Correction under the Arrange area. In other words, Arrange>Color Correction sets up your windows for color correcting with your Viewer, Canvas, and Tool Bench windows aligned from left to right. When one opens up the 3 Way Color Corrector on a clip and makes a change in the clip, the Frame Viewer tab in the Tool Bench window will show a split screen where on one side you'll have your clip with the color correction you just did, and the other side un-color corrected. Isn't this (split) image supposed to show up in your external monitor just as the images in the Canvas and the Viewer?
That doesn't seem to be happening on my external monitor.
I'm not sure if this problem/issue I'm having is related to the muticlipl issue I posted in an earlier thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1330596&tstart=0
perhaps.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Javier Calderon

Ahhh, Shane. So it's as simple as that? So then there's nothing wrong with my setup or my external monitor? FCP's just not designed to show the Tool Bench's Frame Viewer image in your external monitor? Wow . . . Well that answers that then I guess. And you're right . . . that IS indeed kind've lame . . .
Thanks.
Javier
. . . um . . . doesn't that kind've defeat the purpose of proper color correction then (regarding the Tool Bench's Frame Viewer anyway)? If the only place you can see your color corrected Frame Viewer split images is on a monitor that's NOT suited for color correction? Anyway . . . just a thought . . .

I need help with viewing files from the external hard drive on Mac

I own a 2010 mac pro 13' and using OS X 10.9.2(current version). The issue that I am in need of help is with my external hard drive.
I am a photographer so It's safe and convinent to store pictures in my external hard drive.
I have 1TB external hard drive and I've been using for about a year and never dropped it or didn't do any thing to harm the hardware.
Today as always I connected the ext-hard drive to my mac and click on the icon.
All of my pictures and files are gone accept one folder that has program.
So I pulled up the external hard drive's info it says the date is still there, but somehow i can not view them in the finder.
I really need help how to fix this issue!

you have a notebook, there is a different forum.
redundancy for files AND backups, and even cloud services
so a reboot with shift key and verify? Recovery mode
but two or more drives.
a backup, a new data drive, a drive for recovery using Data Rescue III
A drive can fail and usually not if, only when
and is it bus powered or not

Hi Hal,
One possibility, is a strange occurence when applying the big 10.5.8 combo, most people have to Repair Permissions twice in a row, then reboot.

I need to connect my Imac 27'' (newest version) up to 3/4 monitors (all 40'' LCD tv's with VGA and HDMI connections) with extended display to all external screens, not duplicate images. Is this possible?

I would suggest you visit an Apple dealer, preferably an Apple Store if there's one in your city, and ask for assistance in determining what you need. The questions and issues you bring up are rather complex to address in a technical support forum and would be better addressed in person where you and the salesperson can ask questions back and forth to arrive at the optimal setup.

Setting Up Rectangular, for example 16:9 with different subdivisions, Grid (View Show Grid)

The Grid tool (View > Show Grid) is a huge help when designing. Unfortunately, by default AI allows us to specify only square grids, i.e. you set one parameter for gridline spacing (and one for its subdivisions) and AI creates square grid applying your value for both: horizontal and vertical directions. But what if we need something more, for example 16:9 proportion grid (subdivided into 4 parts in horizontal direction and 3 in vertical)? Hmm…. actually… we can do this! We can even set different colors for the main and subdivision lines:

Found something on this! The rectangular grid with different vertical and horizontal subdivision values can be set!!! We can even set different colors for the main and subdivision lines. I've tested this under Mac (CS6 and CC) and Windows x86 and x64 (CS6, CC). I've posted a short articale on this:

I just created a slide show with iPhoto 11 on my MacBook Air. How do I save this to a DVD on my external drive so that it will play on a DVD player?

I just created a slide show with iPhoto 11 on my MacBook Air. How do I save this to a DVD on my external drive so that it will play on a DVD player?

Hi
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
AppleMan1958
You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

HT1338 How to setup an external HDMI screen with a Mac Book Air

How do I setup an external HDMI screen with a Mac Book Air? I am using an Apple accessory Moshi cable interface with a Samsung Syncmaster screen SB24B300 and I am unable to get any response. Thank you.

You need to connect it to the computer using either USB or Thunderbolt. Setup is simply prepping the SSD:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.

Why when I publish template to FCPX the design appears as a thumbnail but the view shows the red warning screen with the Number 2?

why when I publish template to FCPX the design appears as a thumbnail but the view shows the red warning screen with the Number 2?

That is priceless!!! Thanks! I sure needed a good laugh after spending/wasting hours & days trying to either get my c6280 to give up on its Ink System Failure fixation, or find a decent replacement. Unfortunately I need the Smart Web Printing feature that I guess only HP has, or I'd try a different brand. And now even HP has very few models with that available.
My error msg is a little different from those previously stated, but close: 0xc18a0201. Even tho there were frustrations with my c6280, I did like several of its unique features which are hard to find now under $100. I hate how HP (& I suppose other brands also) are CONSTANTLY changing models & then of course ink cartridges.
Oh heavens, I've had the c6280 a whopping 2 1/2 years! I'm sure they want us poor slobs to have to buy a new one every year & a day! To say nothing of the exorbitant prices for ink. And now if this one is really dead in the water, I have SIX unused #02 ink cartridges which I cannot return---I got them in a combo pack, & for some reason have wound up with THREE lite pink & THREE lite blue cartridges, while having to buy extras of the other colors, that ran out before the others!!! Yeah, & what's with that not being able to print in BLACK if a color runs out????
Anyway I really loved your essay! It's a classic! And says it all! I hate that we have to be 'slaves' to the electronic 'wonders'!!!

No BIOS access on external HDMI monitor

setop: T440S (20AQS00500) with Ultradock and external HDMI monitor
Today I updated the Firmware of my Ultradock to Firmware version: 2.17.000 to resolve the famous 3sec blackscreen that is describes in so many places. That did in deed resolve that problem
I also updated my BIOS using the Lenovo Solution center to GJET74WW (2.24)
But now, when I boot, I do not see any of the BIOS diagnostic on my external monitor.
If I hit F1 the external monitor still stays black.
That would be harmelss. But I also run Truecrypt and the Truecrypt prompt does not show on the external monitor.
I have to blindly type my Truecrypt password and then Win7 shows nicely on the external screen.
Our of the dock I went into the BIOS and made sure the display is set to "docking station".
Any ideas ?

There should be a BIOS toggle for display priority at boot. I'm not sure if it still exists in the T440s or exactly where it is though.

How can I share a Keynote show with a large audience using Outlook email?

I am working with a corporate client with a global employee audience of 7,000. They use Outlook as their email platform. Can I create an animated Keynote show and embed it into an Outlook email? So that the user opens the email note, and is either immediately presented with the animated show, or would click a play button to start the animated Keynote? Do I have to house the Keynote show on YouTube, or some other server?
There is no sound, only animation, and the entire show is approximately 75 seconds in length.
Thank you for any direction.

Note that any kind of file containing a slide show with multiple photos is going to be quite large, most likely, and thus is not really appropriate for e-mail. Many servers won't accept attachments beyond a certain size, many people operate with strict mailbox size limits, and so your message may never arrive at its destination. I'd encourage you to do something else. For example, I think you can create a movie file - possibly using iMovie, I'm not sure though. Do that and upload it to YouTube, then send people an e-mail invitation to view it. If desired, YouTube allows you to set it to be viewable only to those who are invited and not to the general public.
