Apple :: Connecting Alu-MB To Vizio LCD TV

Apr 5, 2009

how to connect my Aluminum Macbook up to my 47" Vizio LCD HDTV. I am currently trying to go with Mini-DisplayPort > DVI and then go to DVI > HDMI from there. Would this work, with the exception of sound? I know that MD-port doesn't offer sound support, but if I added an audio cable, would this be good?

Apple :: MBP - Connecting To My Wireless Network

May 27, 2009

I have a USB dongle connected to the USB port on the left side of my MBP. I'm not sure which side the wireless adapter is located in the MBP, but there seems to be interference between the two as I just been having alot of problems connecting to my wireless network. Because of the lack of space on my desk, the left side of the MBP is facing toward a wall (parallel to it), so therefore the Magsafe, USB, and audio ports are facing toward the wall. I have not been able to even detect my wireless network until I decided to remove the USB dongle temporarily and rescan for wireless networks. It finally worked then! So, do you guys think there is a possibility the USB dongle is interfering with the wireless adapter built in MBP? If so, what can I do about it (the right USB port is powering a WD Passport because the left USB does not provide enough power)?

Apple :: Connecting Macbook Pro To Tiscali Broadband

Mar 13, 2009

Just received my new Macbook Pro (very fast delivery) and on first impressions I'm very impressed with it. The build quality and screen are stunning, and it was definitely worth the extra cash.

I'm trying to set up my broadband connection. I've got an old S@gem modem. I've managed to update the drivers using information from this site, but I'm not able to connect.

Is there an issue with Tiscali and Macs? Will I have to contact Tiscali and get something reset? I've been using the modem for years with my PC without a problem. The drivers seem fine, so I'm wondering if it's a Tiscali issue.

Apple :: Connecting To My Workgroup/network At Home W/ OSX

Jun 19, 2009

Recently got a macbook for the first time and I'm having trouble figuring out how to connect to the other (vista pc) computers on my network. Of course on vista I would just click network and it would show all devices online, but here nothing shows.......so I've looked up walkthroughs and I have to go to GO/ connect to server, then punch in the computer name...ok....but once I'm in, all I see on the pc I tested on is this "users" folder and nother else. I have virtually everything set to share....what am I doing wrong? Why can't I see the normal public/shared folders? Is there an easier way to connect to my home network computers?

Apple :: Connecting Macbook Pro 15 To Dell 2407FPW 24

Mar 9, 2009

I'm going to order my 15" 2.4 MBP tomorrow. I'd like to be able to occasionally use it with my Dell 2407FPW 24" (TCO99) Ultrasharp (DVI-D) monitor.

which adaptor I need - is the DVI the best option, or the VGA?

My Dell monitor runs at 1920 x 1200 pixels - would I be able to get the same resolution via the MBP, and is the quality good?

Apple :: Mac Users Connecting To 3008WFP 30" Dell

Feb 7, 2009

Well on my way out to the apple store I decided to run up a few competing monitors and find the 30" Dell with higher specs, HDCP S-IPS panel with 6 inputs (even has display port) for EXACTLY 1599...which is the SAME student discount price for the 30 cinema. Spec wise the Dell is better...in reality, I don't know because I can't go see it.

My question is has anyone connected a macbook or macbook pro to this display?

Dell :: Connecting Laptop To TV

Jan 18, 2009

I have a Dell Xps 1530 with a 1920 x 1080 display. I connected it to my 40" Samsung LCD 720p using an HDMI cable, but its not as crisp as I have seen such connections be at stores. For example the text isn't crisp at all.

Also, I heard that if I connect through an HDMI cable that sound should also be transferred, but when I play something from the laptop the sound comes from the xps rather than the TV.

HP/Compaq :: Connecting To My HDTV

Apr 29, 2009

I've been watching some HD movies that I downloaded on my laptop, and I've been watching them on my HDTV that is connected to my laptop via a VGA cable. Everything is fine with connecting it, settings are all right, but when I watch HD movies, about every 10 minutes it freezes up (the movie, that is) and I have ti close my VLC player and restart it.

I do not have this problem when I watch regular format (not HD movies) on my TV when connected to my laptop, but only when watching HD movies. Does this have to do with the type of connection? Will if work if I buy an HDMI wire and connect that to my laptop instead of using VGA?

Dell :: Connecting To Internet By Dialup

Feb 3, 2009

I just bought a Dell 1710 laptop with a wireless card but no internal modem. I have an old desktop that connects to the internet by dial-up.

(This is the only option for me right now because I live in the boonies!) I want to be able to connect to the internet with my laptop and be able to move around the house.

Do I need a modem & router? I can't seem to find a router with a built-in modem. How do I connect it all? Desktop>>>>>router>>>>modem>>>laptop?

Dell :: Connecting M1530 To Full Hd Tv

Jan 3, 2010

i have recently purchased an lg 42 inch lh3000 full hd 1080p tv to connect to my xps m1530.

i have also just downloaded the newest driver for my 8600gt.
i have linked the two with a vga cable and my problem is that i cant get it to output 1920x1080 resolution even though other people seem to be saying it is possible.

in the nvidia control panel the highest resolution i can get the laptop screen to show is 1440x900 (the native screen resolution) and with the tv plugged in the highest it will take is this same resolution.

HP/Compaq :: DVI? Connecting 6930p Via A Dock

Jun 2, 2009

I'm thinking about buying the HP 6930p Elitebook. One concern I have is that it only has a VGA port and no DVI, HDMI or Displayport for connecting an external monitor. I plan to connect the laptop regularly to a 24" display.

I thought one workaround might be to get a docking station for the laptop, which has a DVI connection. As the laptop connects to the docking station via a different port, I assumed a digital video signal would be sent. However, when I called HP to confirm if this was possible, they advised me that as the laptop only outputs VGA, even when it is connected to the dock, the only thing I could do would be to connect it via the dock's VGA port; it couldn't be connected via DVI. Is this correct? I have received incorrect info from HP and Dell on more than one occasion, so I wanted to check on here. Would the DVI port work on the dock or could I only use VGA?

Also, if not, how much better would a DVI or HDMI connection be versus VGA for that size of display.

Dell Latitude E6500 :: Connecting To LG TV?

Aug 31, 2011

I was wanting to connect my laptop Dell Latitude E6500 to my LG 32" LCD TV.  The TV has HDMI ports and my Latitude E6500 only comes with a VGA out.  I thought a 2m VGA to HDMI cable would suffice but when I select the HDMI input on the TV I get the No Signal message.

If I check the Desktop->Screen resolution properties, my LG TV shows up in the Display dropdown.

I have tried changing the resolution for the TV but it always shows the No Signal message.

Dell XPS 13 :: UltraBook Not Connecting To Projector

May 15, 2012

I just bought this Ultrabook the other day and I travel for business.  While at home, I tested the mini-display port output with my TV and it projected my laptop screen perfectly.  Now I am on the road at a client site and their Epson projector will not recognize my computer's output (or more likely my computer won't recognize their projector, since other people have no problem connecting to this same projector).

XPS 13... I've tried both duplicating and extending my screen to the projector with no success.  I can't find anything about this problem by doing a Google search...

Acer :: Connecting Wireless Aspire 8730

Dec 26, 2009

I'm having probs connecting wireless my Acer Aspire 8730. I had this issue 5 days into buying this laptop. It seems to be an intermittant problem as sometimes it connects fine but other times it doesn't. Sometimes it finds other available networks but not my router. Comet sent the laptop back to Acer who insist there's not a problem with the network card. I did find a setting on my router for extended range that we have checked but the problem still persists. If I connect via the ethernet cable then no problems but if I sit the laptop next to the router it still doesn't connect wireless. It seems to have completely lost the plot over Christmas and can now find absolutely nothing wirelessly. I could try changing the router but I'm a bit loathed to do this as we have aother laptop that runs fine via my router. I'm not sure where to go from here as I know both Comet and Acer will deny there's a problem.

my wireless cut out this afternoon having worked since i bought this laptop a year ago.
i've tried the 'repair' route. i've looked at the device manager and it is supposedly working, but i've had to plug into the wireless router with a physical wire to get connected to the internet. the message i am getting is that windows cannot connect to my preferred network (the one i've been using for a year).
