what cord do i need to watch videos on my tv from my laptop

Depends on what input options you have on your TV.
If your TV has DVI in then you need a MiniDisplay Port to DVI Adapter.
If your TV does not have DVI in but has HDMI then you need a MiniDisplay Port to HDMI Adapter with Audio Support.

    What cord do I need to get video into iMovie? I have a Canon HDV video camera, a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter but not a cord from the camera that matches. I am using a Macbook Air.

    You need a Firewire DV cable like this one.

  • What cords do i need to hook up my macbook to my tv?

    what cords do i need to purchase in order to watch movies from my macbook to my tv?

    You'll need a Mini DisplayPort adapter and a cable from that to your TV. Here's the various types of Mini DisplayPort adapters on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min   i-dvi&x=9&y=13#/ref=nb_sb_ss_sc_2_16?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=mini +  displayport&sprefix=mini+displayport&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Amini+displayport
    If you connect the MacBook using a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter you will probably need to use external speakers or a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo sound system if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs or a 3.5mm stereo input plug for audio with the HDMI plug. The Mini DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't carry audio unless you have the Mid 2010 model 7,1 and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI. Check your TV manual to see if it has audio plgs that work with one of the HDMI ports.
    With the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody there is an adapter that uses the Mini DisplayPort and a USB port to combine video and audio to HDMI. It's only 2 channel stereo not 5.1 Dolby Surround.

  • What cable do i need to watch  netflix from my ipad to the tvv

    What cable do i need to watch  netflix from my ipad to the tvv

    Netflix does support video out. The type of cable depends on your TV. I have used the composite cable and the HDMI adapter with an HDMI cable. Both of these cables work great. There is an AV cable, but I haven't used it, but it should work also. Video quality wise the order of preference would be HDMI, AV, Composite. I bought the composite cable for traveling, because I figure most TVs in hotels would have composite inputs.

  • I would like to connect a monitor to my mac to use two screens, what cord will I need?

    I would like to connect a 'non mac monitor' to my mac to use two screens, what cord will I need?

    Have you found your question yet?
    Well as you can tell this isn't very active especially when your asking a question in a cross platform trouble shooting forum.
    You don't say what computer you have so no one can even guess, you should put the model/year of the computer your on and the Mac OS version your using into your profile so we can help you better. (Example, 2010 MacPro, OS10.6 and Windows 7.)
    Try here and pick your computer to get more help. Click on the Communities link and then the Discussions link and you should find a post that has already asked your question or you can search and you should find a bunch also.
    From what I understand your Mac needs to support dual monitors and you need to have 2 video ports available and just get an adapter if needed for the connection between the computer and the monitor.

  • What cable do you need to watch shows from your macbook to your HDTV?

    What cable do you need to watch shows on your macbook to your HDTV?

    Depends on which MacBook Pro you have and what kind of TV you have.
    If you're MacBook Pro is 2010 or 2010, and your TV has an HDMI input, then get this adapter.  It should be easy.

  • What do I need to watch moves on my tv from my imac?

    Ok I want to watch movies on my tv with my imac. I have the 27-inch, Mid 2011 here is the back of the tv:
    What will I need to watch movies on my tv from my imac?

    A Mid 2011 iMac has got Thunderbolt, which can be used to connect the iMac to your TV through HDMI.
    Get a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, and a HDMI cable. You have to connect the Mini DisplayPort adapter to the Thunderbolt port of the iMac. Image will appear on your TV automatically, unless you have to set the TV in HDMI mode. Another option is to get a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable, so you don't have to buy an adapter and a cable

  • I have a macbook pro. what equipment do i need to watch my computer on my flat screen tv?

    i have a macbook pro. what equipment do i need to watch my computer on my flat screen tv? thank you.

    Step 1. Peek in the back of the TV and identify what kind of inputs it has. Ideally, you'd want an HDMI socket, followed by a DVI or in worst case, analog VGA. Try to determine what's the "native resolution" of the panel.
    Step 2. Based on what you find, peruse in the Apple Store (Mac Accessories /  Cables section, if online) for the appropriate dongle/converter. One end goes to the Thunderbolt/MiniDisplay Port on the Mac, other end depending on the output to feed to the TV. Also buy the corresponding cable of the desired length.
    Step 3. Plug everything together. You have to decide whether to use display mirroring (Mac & TV show the same thing) or separate displays (each shows different stuff).
    Step 4. Based on 1 and 3, open System Preferences / Displays and adjust screen resolution(s) for optimum viewing pleasure. The Mac's display usually far exceeds the external display's max resolution capabilities, so you have to downsize as needed, if in mirroring mode.
    Step 5. Enjoy the results.
    Edit: If your TV  has HDMI input AND your MacBook Pro is a Retina, you can skip the first half of step 2. The Mac already has HDMI output port, so you just need the cable.

  • I have a hitachi hard drive from an old pc. I would like to transfer pics and music to my macbook air. What cord do I need to make this possible?

    I have a hitachi hard drive from an old pc. I would like to transfer pics and music to my new macbook air. What cord do I need to make this possible?

    Some external cases include cords others (like some printers) consider the cord to be "optional" - read the package or product description. Other World Computing, HH Greg, OfficeMax, any box store or local computer store should have a case for your old drive.
    You are fortunate in that the Mac will automagically read the DOS format disk... you'd never be able to connect and old Mac HD to a WinDUHows machine.

  • What RAM do I need and where can I get it from?

    Hi all,
    I know this is probably a simple question, but I just want to make sure I don't mess up my computer! I have an old school DV iMac, and bought the Mac OS X upgrade not too long after it came out (which is rather a while ago now!), but couldn't install it became I don't have enough RAM. And I obviously have just put it off and off. Now I'm at uni, and want the computer to work as well as it can for my mum, because she's even worse than me when it comes to computers. So, anyway, I need RAM. What type do I need and where can I get it from fairly cheaply? And how much would you recommend I get? My friend says he knows how to put it in, so all okay there hopefully/
    My computer's details:
    Processor info: PowerPC G3
    Machine speed: 400MHz
    OS: 9.2.2
    Built-in memory: 64MB
    I remember being able to get more details than this from somewhere on the computer, but I can't remember where...I haven't used it for 6 months or something, and am obviously getting forgetful.
    Hope someone can help. If you need to know anything else, tell me where to get the info from and I will tell you!
    Cheers,
    Fran

    Hi,
    I just bought some RAM from Crucial.
    If you go to www.crucial.com/uk and follow the Crucial Memory Advisor Tool, you should be able to find the RAM for your Mac.
    1 GB sticks are pretty good value at the moment (they've even gone down a few pounds since I bought mine a week ago) and if you enter this code (found it on aonther thread here) you might get a couple of pounds knocked off the total: CUSTOMPC
    There's also places like Kingston & Cancom to try, as well as Misco.co.uk. But Crucial select the recommended RAM for your Mac.
    Also, when you think you've found the right RAM and want to buy it, try the Apple agent chat, and double-check with them.
    Hope this is useful.

  • How do i know what plug-in to use to watch video?

    I have firefox version 22, and windows 7 home premium. i don't have an add-on that i know of to watch videos. it keeps asking me to install something from a list, but i can't find firefox 22, and i don't know why they want to know about internet explorer. i am being prompted to install silverlight but not sure if i am compatible. what do i do?

    It depends on the video site. Some sites may only provide video content using Silverlight and if so you will need to install Silverlight. Silverlight is a Microsoft product and l works as a Firefox plugin. (If it is found to interfere with some Firefox processes you may of course disable Silverlight when it is not required.)
    * http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/
    * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silverlight
    You may use more than one browser on a computer so if convenient you could use Firefox for most day-to-day browsing but still use Internet Explorer (IE) on sites that require IE Some things probably do require IE such as your regular Windows updates. Do not try to remove IE even if you usually use Firefox.
