Which cables are needed to connect macbook 13" to HDTV

Hi, was wondering which cables i needed to connect my 13" aluminium macbook to a samsung HDTV. There's so many on the apple store, not entirely sure what I need. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

Can you clarify whether you're using a MacBook Pro or a PowerBook? Your post is ambiguous. For good measure please tell us when it was purchased new.

Which files are needed for connection to database in 11gR2?

I'm confused about the following files:
sqlnet.ora
tnsnames.ora
listener.ora
host file
If I understand correctly, sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora can exist in both client and Oracle database server and listener.ora should only exist in Oracle database server. I guess host file can exist in both client and Oracle database server.
I'm trying to understand which of the files are needed to access Oracle 11gR2 database using different tools such as
sqlplus, SQL Developer, and Database Control on Oracle database server or from a client machine.
If I'm on an Oracle database server, which of the files are needed for accessing 11gR2 database on that server for the different tools?
If I'm on a client machine, which of the files are needed for accessing 11gR2 database on an Oracle database server for the different tools?

Some of the config parms available to it apply only to the server side, some apply only to the client side, some apply to both.
tnsnames.ora is used by client processes to resolve a connect alias to a specicific host, port, and service. It is used ONLY by the client side of tns. You see it on host machines because those machines can also run client processes.
host file. Oracle doesn't know what this file is. Oracle doesn't give a flying fig about this file. It is used by the standard network software in the OS to resolve a name to an IP address. The only reason you even see it discussed in the Oracle world is because Oracle TNS sits on top of the standard OSI network stack, and uses it. Thus, if your tnsnames file has an entry like:
houston =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = vmlnx01)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = houston)
#==========tns will never know or care where vmlnx01 is. The request will be packaged and sent to the standard network stack with a request to "route this package to vmlnx01, wherever that is.". The OS network stack will then resolve 'vmlnx01' to an ip address, by one of several possible methods. ONE of those methods is to look it up in the local hosts file.

What is the exact name of the cable I need to connect my old hard drive from my macbook pro (it has been taken out of the computer) to my new macbook pro? I need to transfer files from the old hard drive to the new computer.

No eSATA to USB. Just a SATA/IDE to USB adapter. Google SATA/IDE to USB adapter and you will get tons of links to buy them. Most likely your local computer electronics store has them, although they might be more expensive buying locally than online.
I have several. You can get either USB 2, which what I recommend, or USB 3. USB is backward compatible so a USB 3 adapter will work on a USB 2 port and a USB 2 adapter will work on a USB 3 port. Backward compatible in both directions.
I suggest a USB 2 type because there have been some problems with certain USB 3 devices, the USB 3 interface used isn't all that good in those certain devices. USB 3 is still fairly new where as USB 2 has been around for over 10 years.

Thank you LowLuster,
At the apple store they said I needed an esata to usb wire. But looking at wires on line has been confusing. Is sata the same as esata? How do I know if I need a usb 3 or usb 2?

A VGA or HDMI cable (Perferably HDMI). But you need mini-displayport connectors to the specific cables.

Thanks for your help. Sorry for not explaining properly but the cable kit original kit is damaged as it was chewed by my rabbit and it'sthecable from the hub to the bt vision box I'm looking for. I don't want to go into a shop and get ripped off with an expensive cable so just looking for a cable I can from online (but need to know what I'm looking for, which I don't! I am so clueless!).
Thanks again. Hope you know what I mean now.
Ah, my bad. I took it you were either coming back to BT or was explaining to us that you were already a BT customer and was thinking of taking out BTVision and was wondering what cables were needed. The reason I mentioned scart and hdmi was purely to let you know that the only additional cost would of been an HDMI cable.
You have the answer from PP and the others

What cables are needed to extend the range of my airport extreme with my time capsule

I just purchased a new Time Capsule, and I want to install it and use my current Airport Extreme to extend our home's wireless network. What extra cables are needed, and is there a diagram for this setup? We currently have a broadband network.

Apple's instructions to do this are here:

HT201180 What type of Fire Wire cable to use to connect MacBook Pro 2009 to tape-based Sony TRV720 camcorder

What type of Fire Wire cable to use to connect MacBook Pro 2009 to tape-based Sony TRV720 camcorder

USB is the slowest. Firewire is faster. eSata is the fastest (and will be superceded by Thunderbolt). The old Fire was 4 pin (Firewire 400 and is essentially obsolete), new is 9 pin, Firewire 800. All of the will transmit data, simply a different speeds.
For eSata connectivity, you MBP must have an express card slot (and the appropriate eSata connection card) and you external enclosure must have an eSata input. eSata cables will only transmit data, therefor it will require power by Firewire or USB cables.
Ciao.

What cables are best when connecting apple tv, my HD tv has 2 HDMI slots but they are both in use, one for Sky and one for cinema. There are no hdmi slots spare on the cinema either ...

Mine has four Seriously shauntana the splitter is easy, a simple click to changre feed and eventually you will damage the HDMI port or cable by taking it in and out. True you can only use one feed at a time nut you can only use one port on the telly at one time too. I used it on my old one port telly for PS3 and Sky and it worked a treat.

Which cable to use to connect airport express to existed wired network

Hi all, I just purchased the airport express base station to create a wireless network over my existed Verizon DSL wired network. Could anyone tell me which cable I need to set this up? Will 10/100 ethernet cable work?
Thanks a lot!

Hello,
Some UK links... You can use any of the following to get the video signal out of the iMac and into a standard format:
Mini DVI - DVI
Mini DVI - VGA
Mini DVI - Composite/S-Video.
The DVI will give you best quality, but VGA will be simpler. The DVI to HDMI connector is:
Buy a DVI to HDMI connector (link). Long HDMI cables are pretty expensive though.
Although HDMI can handle sound as neither DVI, MiniDVI nor VGA do you'll need to connect the sound separately. Simply connect the sound out on the iMac to the input on the TV using a cable like this:
3.5mm to RCA.
If you use the miniDVI to VGA connector here's a long VGA cable (link).
All Macs since about 1999 have had +DVD Player+ installed. I'm not at my Mac right now to check Front Row in Leopard but Front Row in Tiger certainly played DVDs (but +DVD Player+ is a better, more flexible DVD Player).

Can someone please tell me which cable is used to connect a Macbook Pro to a TV.

I want to connect my laptop to the tv but i don't know which cable is used and where to buy it..

On my 2011 Macbook Pro (and my sister's) mdp does pass audio.
I seem to recall that some (older?) mdp-hdmi adaptors wouldn't pass audio.
The moshi one I have here passes audio, and another one I have does too -- I think it's made by RocketFish.
I see that the one at Apple Store is moshi -- it lists the digital audio feature:

Does anyone knows which cable is used to connect an iphone to a radio or speakers? would appreciate your help..

I have an iphone 5 and i would like to connect it to a radio or speakers to play music but i dont know which cable is used and where can i get it.

Depends on the home radio. You can connect a 3.5mm jack to the iPhone and, if your radio has a 3.5mm input, connect that to your radio. If your radio only has RCA style connectors, you can buy an adapter like the one pictured.
Regardless of which method you use, make sure to select the correct input on your radio. You'll also need to turn the volume on your iPhone all the way up.
I hope that makes sense. If not, what's the model of your radio?

HOW DO I FIND WHICH PLUGINS ARE NEEDED on pages that dont display?

Question
when i loginto my.t-mobile.com i get a circle of moving dots in a white screen over top of some of pages, and some pages have a moving circle like the QuickTime circle in place of the curser. i know its because ff needs a plugin or something installed but dont get info from ff as to what is needed. this site works perfect in IE8 (after IE8 loaded unknown to me which ones) some plugin.have upgraded to FF8, same problem. had same type problem on IRS free file website where pages wont show, but worked perfect in IE8. problem has to be that a plugin or addin needs to be installed but i can't get any info about which to work on.

Very few apps actually run in the background, so, if you're talking about removing apps from the recently used list, that's unlikely to have any significant affect on your data usage. You should go to Settings>General>Background App Refresh and turn off background app refresh for those apps that you don't need to have using data in the background.
You can go to Settings>Cellular and scroll down to see which apps are set to be able to use cellular data. Under each app name is the amount of data they've been using.
