Mac Pro :: Hooking Up Early 2008 To TV With DVI-HDMI?

Dec 15, 2009

I am interested in connecting my early 2008 Mac Pro to my HD TV so that I can easily watch iTunes movies stored on the Mac Pro on the TV.

I know the Mac Pro has DVI video out and the TV has HDMI video in, and that there are adapters between the two. Will this be as easy as connecting my spare DVI port to an open HDMI port?

PowerPC :: Hooking Ibook G4 Up To 1080p LCD TV Via HDMI?

Jan 8, 2009

I bought a 32'' 1080p tv to be an external monitor for my IbookG4. I need to hook it up via HDMI to even get the 1080p. I bought a $100 converter to get VGA to HDMI output with HDCP. 1080 didn't show up on my list, and the highest I can get is 1280x1024. I then bought DisplayConfigX and installed to get the resolution, and i still get the same thing. My vid card is a ATIRadeon9700 pro mac edition, and should be able to go up to 1920. I've had a monitor hooked up via vga before that put out 1600x1100.

I have an iMac, MBP , and Airport Extreme. The HP printer that I have is hardwired via USB to the iMac.

If the above can be done, does anyone know how to set it up?

OS X :: Hooking An External Hard Drive Up To Both A Mac And A Pc?

Oct 7, 2010

Basic dumb question. My buddy has both a pc and a mac at work. He has music spread across both of them. What he'd like to do is colelct all his media files and put them on one external hard drive, then be able to connect both his PC and his MBP to the hardrive to access his music.

What would be the best way to do this? Is there something exceedingly simple like a hard drive with two USB outs that could feed both computers at the same time?
