mid 2011 imac, no vga, no dvi. have a mini to vga and a mini to dvi, but they are both too big. is there some sort of "vga-or-dvi to thunderbolt connector" that neither me nor the guys at the best buy are just not understanding? think i have one of these (which says it does it) bought a month or so ago and an older dvi version i bought maybe three years back for a macbook.but are maybe four times too large for the little thunderport:[URL]
I recently purchased a cintiq 21ux, when I connected it to my macbook pro 15'' (with the usb cord it has)it only works as a giant drawing tablet with no monitor display.
I will buy soon a mac pro 8-core 2,44Ghz and I wanted to know if there was a dvi port on the tower because I must connect a Cintiq Wacom 21ux on it. If there isn't a dvi port, is there another solution to connect it?
I just bought my cintiq 12wx and was wondering if i can connect it to my macbook pro 2011 through the thurderbolt using a mini display-port to vga adapter?
Having trouble with my IMac, I'd like to pair it with my Cintiq 21Ux but i don't know how to dual the monitor ! my Imac doesnt have any DVI ports, only thunderbolt, how can i connect my Cintiq as a monitor as well ?
I'm looking to get a Wacom Cintiq for my illustration studio.
I'm using an iMac G5 running Tiger and I know Apple disabled dual monitors on their video card for iMac. I also know that there's a freeware program that allows you to enable dual monitors if you've got the correct video card� it's called Screen Spanning Doctor and it seems to have a pretty good reputation.
My question is this:
Will Screen Spanning Doctor allow me to use the Cintiq the way it's meant without any screen stretching or other screwups? Or am I SOL, and should I get a Mac Pro with Leopard and all that jazz?
I read an article written by someone who did this and I was just wondering if anyone here has done it as I'm not sure if the Cintiq will immediately display the system or if the install CD needs to be run first... in which case there'd obviously be a problem since it's the only monitor I'd have!Â
I've been getting the dreaded "Signal out of Range" error whenever I try to switch my tablet over to a 1280 by 800 resolution, so I've had to settle for 1280 by 780 or so, but it's harder for me to draw that way as the image looks stretched out. I'm using a DVI outlet at the moment, so I'm just curious, if I bought a VGA adapter, would I still be getting this message? I want to be able to use my tablet with the best resolution but have my tablet still process everything without it cramping out.
I have recently purchased a Wacom Cintiq and it works fine with my PC desktop, however, all of my drawing and painting software is on my macbook. I have been having problems getting the Cintiq's display to work.
The Cintiq basically works as an additional monitor, and has a DVI-I cable. The Cintiq came with a DVI-I to VGA adapter, so I simply bought a Mini-DVI to VGA adapter at Best Buy (the apple brand adapter). I hooked the adapters together, turned on the Cintiq then turned on the Macbook and went to "Displays" under "System Preferences". I clicked on "Detect Displays" and the Macbook was able to detect the Cintiq fine. I then did what the Cintiq manual told me to do by configuring the resolutions and all that, but despite this the Cintiq did not pick up any screen from the Macbook. The error message on the Cintiq read that it did not detect any input from my Macbook, which is odd because the Macbook was able to detect the Cintiq just fine.
When I connected my Cintiq to my PC (by use of the DVI-I to VGA adapter as well) the Cintiq picked up the screen within seconds of turning on the PC. What is the problem here? I really do love my Cintiq but it is useless if I cannot use it with my work Mac. Do I have to buy a new adapter or am I doing something wrong with setting up the monitor? Or are the Cintiq and Macbook simply incompatible?
I installed the 10.7.3 Combo Update yesterday on my iMac (Early 2009) that has a Wacom Cintiq 21UX connected. Prior to updating, my system was working absolutely fine, and I could turn the Cintiq's power on/off at anytime without concern. Now, my system is consistently crashing when I turn the Cintiq's power off/on. A pop-up window appears that reads: "You must restart your computer." Again, this was not an issue prior to the 10.7.3 Combo Update.If I wake my iMac from sleep mode, with the Cintiq turned off, my system will immediately crash when I turn the Cintiq's power on. Similarly, if I cold boot my system with the Cintiq off, and turn it on at anytime after the Mac login screen appears, my system will immediately crash.

I just purchased a 15" MBP and I want to connect both a 27" thunderbolt monitor plus a wacom Cintiq 21" UX. Is it possible to have these both connected to my MBP at the same time acting as seperate monitors? If it is, are there any adaptors or cables I need for this type of se up running to my MBP?
I have a 2007 20 inch Intel core 2 duo iMac and an LG 46" LCD tv. I bought an HDMI cable and a Mini DVI to HDMI adapter but cannot get them to work together. Nothing happens when I click on detect displays in the system preferences.Â
Do I possibly have the wrong version on Mini DVI, for instance DVI-D instead of DVI-I?
So I've got an odd problem, here's the scenario: 27" iMac 2.8GHz Quad Core running OS X 10.7.1, and a netgear router (connected to a Comcast modem).It sees the network, connects then drops the network. However, a MacBook Air running 10.6.8, an iPad, and a Sony Viao running Windows 7 can connect and stay connected to the network fine.This made me think that something with the iMac's WiFi card is broken so we brought it to work and connected it to our network (802.11x, WPA2 Enterprise, Cisco routers) and it worked perfectly. He brought it back home, still couldn't connect to his network.We brought it to the campus Apple store and they replaced the airport card and it seemed to resolve the problem for a bit, but now the issue has come back.Yesterday we did a full time machine back up, wiped the hard drive and did a full OS X Lion re-install and restored from the Time Machine back up, ran all of the Apple software updates and it connected to the WiFi here at work fine.Brought it home, still won't connect to his network. This would make me think that it's an issue with his home network but all the other devices are working fine.We had a Comcast technician look at the network and they found nothing wrong.
Itunes say's that i need to update to be able to connect my phone, yet when i try to update it says my software wont let me.So I have tried to update the software but it say's there are no updates?? I really am useless with computers. It's an Imac5,1 -system version Mac OS X 10.4.11Â (8S2167) Â
I have a Verizon Mifi 4G LTE and I can connect to my Powerbook (which is running on system 10.6.4) BUT I CAN'T CONNECT TO MY iMAC (which is running on system 10.5.8. When I try to connect, it "times out".Â
I want to connect my 2009 iMac, Mac os x version 10.5.8 to my 2008 Samsung LCD TV, model LN32A450C1D. Does anyone know what cords I will need so I can watch videos from my computer on my TV?
What's the best way to connect my iMac (2011) to my TV? My TV has HDMI inputs and my iMac has Thunderbolt ports, so I know I can connect them with a cable, but they are about 20 feet apart and I think that's too long for a cable run.
i have an iMac and am trying to connect it to my HDMI tv so i can watch films through my tv. iv read about all the mini DVI things but my Imac does not have a mini DVI port as it is relitavley new, it only has 1 ethernet, 2 thunderbolt, 1 firewire and a few USB's. I have a thunderbolt to hdmi adapter which i can plug a HDMI cable in and hook it up to my TV, how do i get the display to come up onto the TV?Â
My current software is LION if that would affect.Â
I have an older (white) iMac that connects wirelessly to my Linksys router. I bought a new iMac and I am unable to connect both iMacs wirelessly at the same time. I was wondering if the issue had to do with using the same Apple ID's, but I don't think that is the case. It seems like the old iMac is connected to the router, the new one wont connect and vise versa.
I've seen this question asked before, but it was all related to people who are running lion. I have 10.5.8, which I believe is leopard. Whenever I try to connect to airport, I get my network from the list, enter the password then I get a connection timeout after about 15 seconds. We have had this problem for a while now. We just got a new router this week and I'm still have this problem.
I have my iMac (2009 model) and MacBook Pro (2011) connected to a D-Link Gigabit switch using CAT5E cables.Switch is connected to my router using gigabit connection. Switch is showing gigabit connections for the link to the router and the link to the MacBook Pro (MBP). Link to the iMac only shows 100 mbit connection.
Cables are ok since behaviour is exactely the same when I change/swap iMac and MBP.
When I go the network/ethernet settings in iMac and change from "automatic" to "manual" and select gigabit, the iMac claims there is no network cable connected at all. When changing back to "automatic", connection is re-established but again with 100mbit connection only.
