Set up an old TV / VGA to RCA (1yellow) - what gives?

I'm trying to connect my laptop to my old TV which has only rca records. Laptop has a vga out alone. So, after a little obstructionisme at frys-(ne pas vouloir payer 60 pour ce truc de coffret, ils avaient--j'ai commandé un câble adaptateur RCA/S-vidéo VGA.) To my dismay, I now have trouble getting the video to show. I did my audio separately that comes through the tv fine. I was playing with it in the display settings IE. lowering the resolution, "corresponding upward monitors" which I did not quite understand highlighting Monitor 2 (the little icon - one who is somehow not highlighted in gray and checking "enable this monitor" and "do this my main monitor" I can get it the same size as 1.) Nothing appears on the TV. Doesn't seem to work. I'm trying to figure out if my video card will allow me to move to a 'TV' defining possibly? Maybe there's a driver that will allow this? So far I can say I have a "mobile intel 4 series express chipset family '. I feel now is that the video card, I may not be able to support the installation of the adapter - without some heavy DIY - ideas whiz kids?

Hello

The resolution provided by the VGA output must be within the limits of the TV that is connected in. If no video is shown, there are two possibilities. The video that came out of the computer is too high of a resolution or the RCA VGA adapter is defective.

Keep in mind that most graphics cards do not have the possibility of a resolution that appears on the TV, as they are designed for the video output on the monitor output.

  • Confused T400 VGA to RCA? ARGH!

    Well, this new computer has asking me for help for the simple task of connecting a T400 confused to an old analog TV. I've never seen a VGA port on your laptop before. All my laptops have a plural mini-jack, which branched into 3 RCA jacks-one yellow for video and red and white for audio-all of a stream of the singular of the computer. I found this very well! Now I have a machine extraterrestrial with an unusual configuration.

    I found VGA to RCA cable adapters but colorful on the mats were red green and blue! ARGH! I don't know what to buy to get the laptop audio and video on a common analog television. Used to be very simple. Should I now one two cables for audio and another for video? What is the problem with the VGA port? I do not like. The audio on the laptop is very bad... he can barely hear blaring in front of it! My guess is that the VGA port on the side is for video only. I just need a yellow RCA plug on the end for the connection with video-OK TV? Then I'll just need a common mini-plug with the two RCA plugs on the end for audio... Why I wasn't watching this before I bought the weird machine?

    Thanks for your useful link - oh crazy moderator with modulation information! I understand how something like that would drive someone crazy. I was frustrated after a long query. Because I've had my laptop, I couldn't get a handle on how to connect on an analog TV and I've had it for six months. I would like to see which cable recommended seller looks like, since I specifically a desired yellow RCA jack in my request to him on the phone. I have a degree in multimedia, but it is disheartening to fully understand a computer.

    I appreciate the link. Looks like a tv with a Lenovo solution will cost more and add another piece of equipment in my travel bag. Customers usually have more former county sets on it or be ill-prepared. Still, not everyone has DTV - in every room. Your answer is the best that I got, with an explanation-all this with credentals. Crazy? I feel your desire to help and teach the fools of time, not even ... The seller said that the cable there doesn't always work to get the box that you recommeded is better that the box he recommended ($100)... a big savings in money. Thank you once again.

    Start the computer in safe mode (press F8 continuously immediately after power and don't worry beeps when you press the button) and let it boot without a network.  Once there right click on the desktop and then click Properties.  Click settings and the value of the monitor mode (640 X 480) VGA or SVGA (800 X 600).  Accept the changes and restart the computer.  You should have a mediocre screen, but you should see it now.  Download and install the appropriate drivers for your video card in the laptop to the web site of the manufacturer of the laptop.  Install the drivers and then you should be able to set the display of the laptop to the correct native resolution for your computer monitor (must be in the documentation of the laptop).

  • How do you get the set of an old iPhone?

    I inherited an old iPhone and I'm trying to set it up as an iPod as a device for my grandchildren. How can I determine the series of the iPhone and can I download iOS 7.0 or such so that the applications can be downloaded?

    First, you will need a SIM in there to activate it with Apple (you can out it then - just to be there to complete the stages of activation).

    If you plug into iTunes, try to update to iOS, system update Apple will offer only the last version compatible with the material.  If iTunes says no update is available, then you are running the latest available for that material.  If there is a newer version available iTunes will determine the latest version for that material and provide only that the update version.

  • How to set up my old e-mail account on my new computer?

    My old E-mail need

    Hello, recently my computer succumbed to a virus and it does not start, my son built me a new computer and install windows 7 that I was too frustrated with windows vista. I use email a lot and it is necessary for a lot of all my tasks of day. However, the new email on windows 7 requires that I have check the email account I want to use. However, since the death of my old computer I don't have anyway to do. I used windows vista built in program and used an email me given by my ISP, not something like gmail or hotmail. Is - it there anyway I can use my old email so that email people that I do not lose me?

    Windows Live Mail is an e-mail client, such as Outlook Express and Windows Mail.

    Basically, an e-mail client is a small application that is not related to any provider of e-mail and allows different providers of e-mail accounts to be integrated into one or more mailboxes mailbox within the application.

    There are probably some instructions on the Web site to your Internet service provider who could tell you how to set up Windows Live Mail, but the simplest is to call the ISP directly and ask them to guide you through the process of email all configuration.

    Good luck.. :-)

  • How to set up my old iPad with the content of my husband's iPad

    I give my husband my old ipad to replace its older iPad. I have reset my old iPad to factory settings and then save the sound an old man to iTunes on my MacBook and then synchronize my old iPad than upward?

    You, in fact, start with settings > general > reset > erase all content and settings on the old iPad you disclose.  (Before doing this, make sure that the iPad has been removed to find my (iPad), if it has been implemented.  Also, make sure that you have made the settings > general > software update, then it executes the current iOS version.)

    I hope that your husband (one being replaced) old iPad has already been saved or to iTunes on his computer (with his account, not yours) or iCloud (using his Apple ID, not yours).  Simply restore his 'new' iPad using this backup.  If the backup is to his iTunes account, make sure it is the latest version of iTunes (12.4).

  • Setting of an old Sony Handycam Video 8

    I have this old Sony Handycam Video 8 1990, I remember playing with as a kid. And I still remember worked up to a point where it just wouldn't read videos (for no reason) when I turn it on the black player a few trips and none of the playback buttons work (except eject) it charges thin strips and I even clicked on file and it worked (he was shooting and not errors) I plug into my TV (camera mode works it shows on the TV) but the player is not at all. Someone please help

    Thank you

    Hi iLeet,

    From your description of the problem, it seems that the leader of band and record head seems to be the problem, the internal switches also seem to have malfunctioned. This unit would need to service; However, since it is a very old camcorder, we recommend you to buy a new camcorder with advanced features rather than fix it.

    If my post answered your question, please mark it as "acceptable Solution".

    Hello

    ·        Have you tried to update the drivers for the graphics card?

    You must install the drivers for its display, currently functioning in VGA mode, that after having installed the drivers you will be allowed to change the resolution.

  • BlackBerry smartphone email set up and old problems owner

    My brother gave me his old storm. I put my t mobile account chip and bought the data plan and most of the functionality seems to work (I think).

    Email my brother is still in the e-mail button and blackberry cannot connect to the mail server so that I can enjoy his email and put mine.

    Also when I make a call the "My number" shows the number of my brother.

    Is there a way to fix this. He needs to unregister somewhere. He needs to go to his carrier Version to change something?

  • I've updated to the latest version and now all my color settings are confusing. Open old files shows wrong colors. What can I do?

    Open the old files poster colors wrong unless I switch to "Monitor RGB" and turn on "Proof colors" in the view menu.

    Exporting jpg files gives me files that look different in each browser. Many of my images take on a lighter yellow cast. I know there are issues with the help of profile being different between browsers, but I've never had this problem before. All my different when PSD files I open them and export differently than before.

    Even my Color picker displays more pure gray, but gray yellow in them. With the evidence mentioned above, color settings, I select in the picker look nothing like what is actually painted on the canvas. I see gray on the canvas but yellow gray in the color picker.

    I remember spending a lot of time setting up my color settings in my previous version of Photoshop. They seem to not have been migrated to my new version, and I don't know how to recover or configure again.

    The upgrade should not create these fundamental differences with my settings and workflows. I work almost exclusively with screen images and websites and I have no idea how to proceed. I can still function normally with my old files and the product is basically useless for me as it behaves now.

    I'm desperate. What can I do?

    Robinson-Adobe says:

    Open the old files poster colors wrong unless I switch to "Monitor RGB" and turn on "Proof colors" in the view menu.

    That what is disable display color management chain - IOW take your profile instructor out of the loop. Which means you have a bad monitor profile, probably a sent through Windows Update.

    The real solution is to use a standard to make a new profile, but if you do not have one, use sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1 for now. Go to control panel > color management:

    Be sure to restart Photoshop to load the new profile at startup.

    Color settings won't leave anything here, and don't change anything. Color settings is to manage document profiles - but the issue here is the profile of the monitor , which is something different treated elsewhere.

  • My new macbook w/Yosemite only installs Firefox 42.0 even if my old iMac is running 43.0b7. What gives?

    This is as stated above. In addition, some options in the preferences (for example, private browsing) are not available in the preferences screens.

    "Use the custom settings for history" to view the current settings of the story and cookie, you can inspect and see them.
    Selection of custom parameters does not alter the historical settings and cookies.
    Firefox will display "Use the custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one story and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that the changes have been made.
    If all the history settings are default, custom settings are hidden and see you "conservation rules: (never) don't forget history."
