The Macbook Pro to connect to Samsung TV

I looked at the apple tv on apple's site, but I'm still confused.   We have a samsung, Comcast TV and a wireless router.  I want to connect my Macbook Pro to the Samsung TV wireless or cords and I heard the only way to do was to buy apple tv.  I give lessons in photoshop and want people to see my computer on the TV screen.

If I buy the cheaper apple tv, would that be possible?  Does it come with a software that I install on my computer?

I would be grateful someone help an old lady!  Thank you.

No additional software is necessary. Your MacBook has everything he need the airtime to an Apple Tv.

To view a video from your Mac to a TV high definition - Support Apple AirPlay

You probably want to use the 'Mirror' option to display all of your MacBook on the TV screen.

  • Change of keyboard USB external Apple connected to the Macbook Pro

    Dear ladies and gentlemen,

    I need your help. I have a MacBook Pro running the last Sierra 17 "MacOS. I bought a 27 "Thunderbolt display and wanted to use a full external keyboard USB Apple (with the help of the digital keys). I have connected to the screen "USB port, closed down the internal screen MacBook... magic happened... keyboard poped office to the top of the screen external AND external full resolution was working properly..." Unfortunately only for 1-2 minutes, then the layout changed back irreversible in a layout resembling the layout if I would press "alt". Only way I could "resolve" to disconnect the keyboard USB plug and then plug again... but after 1-2 minutes did the same thing...

    I tried to plug the USB plug into the MacBook Pro directly, but the same thing happened...

    I am so unhappy that I can't use correctly the full length external Apple keyboard, large... Any hint/resolution?

    Thank you for your help in advance,

    Péter

    System Preferences > keyboard > Input Sources > [√] see Input menu in the menu bar

    ... then the menu icon before, choose «Show Keyboard Viewer»

    Now, look at the chart of the keyboard that appears on the screen. If the Alt/Option key is stuck, the key will be gray, as if it is held down. If you press it again, he himself is not?

    I have the macbook pro (OS 10.6.8) and the iphone 6 s. The latest version of iTunes is 11.4. When it is connected to the MAC, I get the message that itunes must be upgraded. How to synchronize or import/export files(images/music)?  Fact is need to update itunes?

    Hi sonalnj,

    I understand that you cannot synchronize your iPhone as iTunes is requested it must be updated. I can help you with that.

    According to the technical specifications for a 6 s iPhone, you need a Mac running OS X v10.8.5 or later version with iTunes 12.3 or later. Because you are on OS X 10.6.8 your version of iTunes is up to date with this OS.

    iPhone 6 s Tech Specs
    http://www.Apple.com/iPhone-6s/specs/

    Now to fix that, you need to update your Mac OS X 10.8.5 Mountain Lion or OS X 10.11 El Capitan. If you want to go to the Mountain Lion, you can do it with the first link below. The cost will be $19.99 and a code will be delivered to you if you can download it via the Mac App Store. Once you have upgraded, be sure to make all software updates to go with him to get the latest version of iTunes.

    Now the other option is to move to OS X 10.11 El Capitan, and is a free update that you can do right in the Mac App Store, if you meet the system requirements. Take a look at the following article for more details on how to do it.

  • Connect the MacBook Pro as external drive

    Hello

    I recently bought an iMac 27 "(rétine 5K, 27 pouces, fin 2015)." I have also a 15 "MacBook Pro (early 2011).

    I understand that this iMac does not support the target Display Mode, but is there a way where I could plug in my MacBook Pro via a Thunderbolt cable and work out of files remotely from there? I know that I can connect to my MacBook as a server, but I do not think that it allows enough speed to transfer between the two. Ideally, it would be as if I hooked my MBP, as if it were a USB key.

    Thank you!

    Connecting them, then reboot the MacBook Pro with the T key pressed.

  • Problems with getting the MacBook pro bluetooth to detect client devices he already never associated with.

    Hello.

    I am unable to get my Macbook pro to detect devices, that it has never been previously connected.

    The Macbook pro is detectable by the Bluetooth devices, but I don't seem to have an option to be able to detect the client devices.

    My macbook pro gives the possibility to be discoverable - mode client for example, I want to discover clients for example, speakers, headphones.

    My bluetooth speakers or headphones work fine on my Ipad so I know the beat headphones works well.

    The pro macbbook is detectable and I can connect by Ipad or phone for her, so I don't know the bluetooth on the Macbook works fine.

    Once coupled display in the area of discovery - and can be connected to.

    I think, basically, it means that the Macbook pro connects as a client - but I don't see an option to put in Server mode.

    How can I do so that it looks non-paired devices - I use 10.11.5 (15F34) attempts to connect to the Beats headphones.

    I have reset PRAM etc.

    I even tried plugging an external bluetooth USB adapter - this did not provide additional options.

  • Update of the Macbook Pro 13 inch i7 (mid-2012) worm.

    Dear Apple community

    Greetings,

    I would like to know your opinion about the upgrade to the Macbook Pro 13 inch (mid-2012) i7 2.9 worm. by the following:

    1. replace the stock HARD 750 GB to a Samsung EVO 850 SSD 1 TB drive in the link below

    cm_cr_pr_product_top http://www.Amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-inch-Internal-MZ-75E250B-am/DP/B00OAJ412U/Ref=? ie = UTF8

    2. replace the stock RAM memory which is 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) in the link below

    http://www.Amazon.com/crucial-DDR3L-1600-PC3-12800-CT2K8G3S160BM-CT2C8G3S160BM/d p/B008LTBJFW/ref = sr_1_1? ie = UTF8 & qid = 1450...

    I know that apple says that 8GB is the maximum RAM.

    is it OK to do? ? (System and stability not wise not hardware wise)

    will I have problems with the system after the upgrade? ?

    I had done a lot of research about this, but am not sure yet.

    your help is highly appreciated

    Thanks in advance

    Best regards

    I would avoid the Samsung SSD.  If you analyze these forums, many users have experienced difficulties with the Samsung SSD.  (Some are not)  Note that Samsung is unable to talk about Mac compatibility on their web site.  I think what to say.

    I can recommend Crucial SSD based on my experience in the installation of three of them in my Mbps.   OWC SSDS have an excellent reputation.

    I support the Crucial RAM.  I have 16 GB of Crucial RAM installed in two of my Mbps.  16 GB of RAM should present no problems for your MBP.  OWC is also a great salesman of RAM Mac compatible.

    Ciao.

  • Can not get Macbook pro to connect to my network

    I was unable to get a macbook pro to connect to my network. I am running a router with SRX400 G wireless broadband. I have 5 pc access without problem; However the macbook will not. I use WEP 128bits encryption, and while the mac detects the network, when I type the password, it is still not valid (the same password used on the pc without any problem).

    Since you are using WEP you enter the password.  You must enter the key 1 of the router in your wireless settings.

  • U3415 sharing the macbook pro and PC

    Hi all

    recently purchased the rather excellent U3415 and I'll put up my installation of small music at home.

    On my desk, I have my macbook pro and my pc. I want to be able to do is to use a keyboard and mouse for both systems. I can do this with the U3415? I am using a USB hub that is connected to the macbook pro (I have about 7 usb for music devices), but I was wondering if I could connect the USB keyboard and a mouse on the screen then somehow use just the mouse and the keyboard. I read the U3415 has a great feature KVM USB upstream and wasn't sure if it was the same thing. I know I can plug in Display HDMI port AND so move from pc/mac is easy for the side of the display of things.

  • Apple devices will not print not to 6700 Officejet, including the MacBook Pro and iPad

    I'm helping someone to implement their MacBook Pro and iPad to print wirelessly on their Officejet 6700. I have recently set them up with a new Apple Airport Extreme for their router. The printer connects to the wireless network. During the installation process of the printer is fine, that the MacBook can easily see the printer. The appropriate driver is installed. They also have a laptop Windows 7, which prints instanteously and has no problem whatsoever.

    When I try to print from the Mac, nothing prints. I open the print queue and it says 'Printing - a printer' and nothing ever comes of it. When you try to print from the iPad, you can see the printer and I select. However, after saying in print, said only dialog box: 'Connection to the printer' and he never - it just times out.

    Things I've tried:

    • Everything in this article which corresponds to Macs (10.8).
    • Reset the printing on Mac system.
    • Reset the printer to default settings.
    • The definition of the static IP address of the printer through the printer settings.
    • Setting the IP address of the printer via the Airport utility (after changing the automatic printer).
    • Restart the Mac after each attempt to remove the printer and adding again.
    • Using the official HP Officejet 6700 driver.
    • Use the Airprint driver.

    Other info:

    • Successfully, I can ping IP address of the printer from the MacBook Pro.
    • I can easily see the web page of configuration of the printer in the printer settings both by entering the IP address.
    • The printer is only about a month.
    • They bought this printer because the earlier had problems printing from all of their wireless devices. It is with a previous router in their ISP.

    At this point, I'm completely puzzled as to why the printer will print not these Apple devices. We have addressed all the issues that might be causing it: the network, the printer and the MacBook itself. I looked online and can't see any problem with people not being able to print to a wireless printer connected to an Airport Extreme. I saw some problems when the printer is connected via USB to an Airport Extreme, but this isn't our installation program.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Wow, I must admit, I had to do a lot of research to find something that you have not already tried! Thanks for your efforts so far @derick03 I accept the challenge of helping you get this to work.

    I have a vague feeling that the problem may have something to do with the router settings and to test my theory, I would like to try something for me.

    Please, open the preferences system, printing and scanning, click on the + symbol to add a printer, but this time, instead of the default tab, click the IP tab. Now let's add the printer using HP Jet Direct Protocol instead of the standard Hello.

    You can enter the IP address here, choose the HP Jet Direct and then select the printer driver, and then try to print. You will not be able to analyze this way, I just do this for diagnostic purposes. If you can print, it confirms the Hello Protocol is, and you will need to call Apple to make them turn on Hello, multicast and ensure that all the necessary ports are open.

    Not all wireless routers take load Hi or all features of Hello. Hello being the default method for the discovery of printers on a network, you must ensure that your wireless router supports Hello.
