MacBook Pro :: Its No Longer Connect To My Tv
May 5, 2012
Until a recently I had no difficulty connecting my mid 2010 macbook pro to my LG tv using a mini display port to HDMI cable. The software on the Mac is OS X Lion 10.7.3 Now when i plug it does not work. The tv recognisies the computer is plugged in but it enlarges the screen so can only see a small part and the display on the computer does the same so I can get into the display menu to do anything there. When I unplug it it goes back to normal but i cant do anything with the display preferneces as its not plugged in. I have tried a new cable but this didnt work.
Info:Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

When I am logged into my user account on my macbook pro, all of my apps can no longer access the internet, safari, mail, skype etc etc I thought it was just Safari, so I deleted plist file, but it is all my apps that are not connecting. Safari gives error cannot connect to server.... It is not a network problem, wi-fi is connected fine. Other devices connected etc It was working fine last night, and now today nothing works The weird thing is that I can connect to internet using safari in my guest account (which I am doing right now!) Do I have some kind of virus?

I am running into an issue where AD users can no longer connect to AFP file shares. If you attempt to authenticate with one of our Lion server's local accounts, you connect without any issues, but if you put network credentials in then you get the window shake denial. This issue just came up this morning. I attempted unbinding and rebinding the machine, updating from 10.7.2 to 10.7.3, removing and re-adding share point permissions, turning file sharing off then on, and still no network account authentication.Â
how to get network credential authentication to AFP filesharing working again?

I have a Powerbook G4. It doesn't have an internal wireless card so I bought a Linksys wireless adapter to plug into the side of my computer when I first got the computer. It worked fine for years. I recently reformatted the hard drive and now when I insert the wireless adapter it no longer will allow me to connect to the internet. I'm aware that Linksys doesn't have drivers for Mac users so I'm confused as to how I got it to work in the first place. I don't remember installing any third party software, but I may have, it was a few years ago. Does anyone have any suggestions what I should do to allow me to use my linksys card in my Mac? I've heard of Orangeware but I'm not sure if that's the solution. The adapter is a WPC54G
Oh one last thing, when I plug the card in, an icon appears in the top right corner that shows something is plugged into the port but doesn't allow me to click on it and search for wireless connections.

I have a blackbook (intel core 2 duo) and I can connect to my landlord's wireless network (they have a netgear wgt624) but I can't actually use the web (Safari or Firefox will just "think"). I've tested the diagnostics and it confirms that my mac can connect to the network, but it cannot connect to the internet. The network uses WPA personal and it has a 19-aphanumeric passphrase.
*Also - would it be possible for me to extend the wireless range (and make it possible to browse the web) if I used my own 2wire wireless modem to connect to the netgear wgt624?

I don't know what's wrong with it.My ipod touch connects just fine and yet when i try to connect my new macbook it won't allow me to connect.I've never owned a macbook - so i have no idea how to fix this.
I currently have the network setup assistant running and configuring - but it's been about an hour and it hasn't done anything.Is there something else i need to do?

It is on my home network which I have been using for months. I have made no changes to my router or network setting. Other devices will still connect to the wifi with no problem and I connect through the ethernet connection with no problem. I have disabled the wifi and restarted my computer with no luck.

I remember being able to tab through the buttons in certain windows. For example, when I press the power button to shutdown, I used to be able to tab through 'restart' 'sleep' 'cancel' and 'shutdown', then press either space or enter to make my selection. But for some reason, I can no longer do these things. I do not remember when I first lost this function, but it's been a while. Is there a setting that enables this?

my Macbook no longer recognises any "alien" accounts.It started with mail no longer accepting my gmail and hotmail accounts and constantly asking for the passwords and rejecting them even though I'm 100% sure I used the right password.
Even tried resetting the passwords for all google and hotmail accounts and using those passwords.I deleted all accounts in system preferences and then tried adding them again to accounts.It still wouldn't accept any passwords.I deleted the passwords stored in keychain but that didn't work either.Now I have the same with twitter and Facebook accounts set up on my mac.
And now it doesn't let me add my iCloud account to mail anymore.Is there some sort of reset button to just wipe the whole macbook clean or something as it is quite unworkable this way.

I have a Macbook running OS X 10.5.8
The print to pdf function is great, but I've noticed that for longer documents it divides the file into 3 separate sections/documents. This is annoying.
Is there anyway around this within the operating system, or is there other software like "cute pdf writer" for the mac . It seems that "cute" was only written for PCs since Macs tend to not need it.

I have been using my headphones in new macbook pro for about 3 months and everything has worked fine. About two weeks ago I started using external speakers, but my headphones still worked when I plugged them in, until about yesterday. The headphones are not even recognized the the volume just goes throught the laptop speakers. My headphones work with my ipod still so I know they are fine.

Just recently my MacBook (10.6.2) has started to take around a minute to shut down instead of about 2 seconds like it always has done. It displays a lightish blue screen with the loading symbol as seen below the apple logo when starting up any machine. The only thing I have done differently recently is started using an external monitor and kb/mouse. Although I have disconnected all of these and it still does it.

So I bought a MBP i7 in May and I love it, Never had any issues with it at all. But I never used the DVD drive once until today. I wanted to rip a DVD with MacTheRipper. It didnt work. Rips fine on my new Mid 2010 Mac Mini...
So I tried to play the DVD with the DVD player app... just get a solid black screen... VLC, nothing.
Anyone else have any issues like this?

Cinema tools, Evernote to name a few.I've repaired disk, verified permissions and everything I can think of. The computer runs fine but it's quite annoying that several paid programs just won't open at all.

I am running OSX 10.7.3. Yesterday all my thousands of fonts completely disappeared from Suitcase Fusion 2. I was told by Extensis that I could not get them back, but that I needed to upgrade to Fusion 3 which would be compatible with Lion. I did that. When I tried to get my stored fonts off the CDs and DVDs I'd stored them on all the CDs appeared to be blank and I got a message on the DVD that it cannot be read on my computer. (I have used all these CDs and DVDs before.)Â

Recently Ive purchased the mac app "Iboostup" and used the app shrinkinking function. I followed the steps the app gave me which was "replace the shruken apps with the old ones". In which case I did and all the programs worked except for Iphoto. Which Is quite annoying because that is my whole entire photo library. Im not too sure if my photo's have been deleted now and Im quite worried to the outcome Im going to get. Please respond as Im very anxious.

I am struggling with the best way to post HD, as well as SD videos to the web - Vimeo as well as YouTube sites. Some of my files are up to an hour long, and above. I've tried mp4, H.264 compression, multi-pass, as well as ProRes in various settings. The files are either too small or too large. I have an stand-alone Flash encoder, but it seems to take an inordinate amount of time. My computer only has a Duo Core - its the first Intel processor. Is it too slow to process these large Video files?

I am running a Macbook Pro using OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.8.Â
For the past few days, I am completely unable to restart or shut down the system, unless I hold down the power button.Â
I have checked Disk Utility -> Verify, and it says my HD is fine. I don't know what else I can do?!

Get the sound back on my late-2007 13" MacBook! Last week I put Bose headphones in the headphone jack, but after I unplugged them, the built-in speakers no longer worked, and the speaker icon is grey. Yet when I plug the headphones back in, I get sound again (through the headphones only, of course).

I have a 2008 17" Macbook Pro A1261. The other day I was working on battery life and noticed it was about to drain, so I plugged in my adapter. The adapter was not lighting up and I assumed that it had just stopped working. My Macbook is completely dead at this point. I bought another adapter (the newer L shaped ones) and when I plug it in the light comes on green but does not change colour to amber. When I try to power my mac on it does not come on with the battery in or removed.Â
I have tried an SMC reset, holding shift, etc. and nothing has worked thus far. My issue is that how can my macbook all of a sudden just "die" when it was working PERFECTLY fine before the battery drained? I assumed buying another adapter would fix the issue.
Could this simply be because my macbook does not yet have the firmware installed for the new L shaped adapter? If so what steps can I take to install the firmware? I know it is not the magsafe adapter because I have tried two others with no luck.Â
