I'm looking for something quick, cheap and easy to hook up a standard IDE hard drive to my iMac via USB. I have an Adaptec enclosure, but I really don't wanna open it up just to format a hard drive, or grab data from one.
I am looking to connect my macbook pro to an Acer G24 monitor, but am not sure what best way to do it.The resolution of the monitor is 1920x1200, and it is a 24" screen, with VGA, DVI, and HDMI ports.My macbook pro is the late 2011 entry model.
Will there be a difference in the quality of the picture on my external monitor, depending on whether I connect using a HDMI cable or a DVI cable? I will have to buy an adapter for each of these, to plug into the mini DVI port on my mac, will this alter the quality of the picture at all? If I were to buy an Apple Tv, would I be able to plug it straight into my monitor using a HDMI cable? If so, how would I manage the audio, as my monitor does not have speakers. Would using a thunderbolt cable (with HDMI adaptor) increase the quality of the picture of my monitor?
Info: MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.4), Apple TV, Thunderbolt, Monitor
I got my mac pro a couple weeks ago and am very happy. I am going to purchase some RAM from newegg and I want to get a couple hard drives to raid0 and store all my HD videos. Can anyone recommend a hard drive.
I have a MBP17, bought in Feb 2009, the HDD is a 320Gb 7200RPM. Looks like I have run out of space and cannot clear much more off, because of the number of VMs I'm running.
I'm looking for something to help me prepare for the LSAT. Ideally I would like it to countdown from 35 minute minutes with a warning at the 5 minute mark -- something that will do multiple timers at once would work, but having a built in "warn" function would be great.
I tried, iChm, not too bad, but the search function is not working, everytime I tried to search something, the beach ball will appear and whole thing will shut down.
I have tried xchm...doesn't work as well. chmox doesn't do well too. Chmosx is just horrible.
Can anybody recommend a wireless external hdd for imac that works well with apple products such as new macbookpro and new imacs? I know that appletalk as far as I am aware was discontinued and has become more generalised into bonjour but I am worried about wireless conection to connection being able to talk fluently (computer speak) to each other over a wireless home network. an external HDD which they know that supports apple and has in the past fast and fluently.
I have a iMac (Intel) desktop and also a Windows based PC. I use the newer Mac to process JPEG photos in Lightroom 3, but here's the catch: most of the time my older Sandisk ImageMate 8-in-1 CF reader does not show up in LR3 (I connect the USB plug directly to the back of the Mac's USB slot). It works just fine with the PC. So it may be a hardware problem and I am willing to invest in a new Mac compatible card reader. My Mac runs on OS X (Lion).
My alarm clock broke yesterday, and I figured it'd be cool to just use my Macbook as one. Does anyone know of a good free alarm program that also displays the time on screen?
I'm about to throw my HP Colorsmart C6180 out the window. The problems are mostly with the HP software, and my inability to get it to work with OSX 10.5.6 on my Mac Pro. Does anyone want to suggest a replacement that has all in one capabilities and actually is compatible with my computer?
i was wanting to transfer several vhs tapes to dvd in decent quality. can anbody recommend any hardware/software to transfer them without breaking the bank?
I need to burn a 6.2 GB disc image to dvd. Can someone recommend a mac compatible disc this size that can be used in my Superdrive. The only ones I have are 4.7 GB. I have a summer 2009 iMac.
I am looking at getting an external hard drive ...but before that, someone suggested i could use the second internal hard drive...but how do i find out if i do?If i don't, can someone recommend a good external hard drive?
I gave him my Mac Mini (it was one of the first ones out, several years ago), so we can communicate a little easier, and just because it's time he goes Mac! Anyway he gets home and tells me I forgot the vga to dvi adaptor. >.< I had forgotten its existence since I never used it... Is this: it? The code on the package is 603-0607. I googled that code, and did find something about DVI, but I figure it can't hurt to ask, before I go and mail a package all the way out there. Does that look like what came with the old minis?
i want to connect my macbook to a VGA screen, I have the macbook, I have the screen, I even have the adaptor (it's the one which came with the Macbook). The thing I really don't understand is why this adaptor cable is only about 3 inches long. I can't even find one which is longer. Surely I am not the only person who has encountered a problem with this - the VGA socket on the monitor I have is more than 3 inches up from the base so I literally cannot use this cable without half-lying the monitor down. Clearly this is ridiculous and not how it was intended to be, but how do people make this work?! As I say, Irealise this probably sounds stupid, but I am completely baffled by the total absurdity of it as well.
