Using imac as my 2010 monitor 2007

I want to turn my 2007 iMac first into a second monitor for my iMac 2010.  I've read conflicting reports if it works or not and a guy at Office Max said that he could sell me the cord that I need and it would work.  I'll start to implement online courses and need free space on the 2010.

Any advice?

Which requires the software VNC as ScreenRecycler.

  • Currently using iMac 2007 Yosemite 10.10.5 with 2 GB 667 mhz ddr 2 with 2.4 ghz core 2 duo with intel that I should upg at El Capitan

    Currently using iMac 2007 Yosemite 10.10.5 with 2 GB 667 mhz ddr 2 with 2.4 ghz core 2 duo with intel that I should upg at El Capitan.  Very slow system.  This improvement will speed up?

    In my opinion, unless you upgrade the RAM 6 GB. You can get a kit of RAM 6 GB OWC (www.macsales.com) or you can get a DIMM 4 GB + 2 GB of Crucial (direct purchase) and update the RAM. Your machine likely a 2x1GB DIMMS installed, however if she doesn't 1x2GB DIMM installed everything you need is a 4 GB DIMMS. Once you upgrade the RAM, then you can upgrade to El Capitan, when you upgrade, I think you'll be an improvement in performance. Although technically El Capitan (and Yosemite) will run on 2 GB, the user experience should be quite poor.

    Good luck.

  • Re-install Snow Leopard to a notice of Imac I3 mid-2010?

    Hello

    I have already received some good answers in another thread, but it had a different title, so I thought that I post here and maybe some members will more experience with this:

    I just bought a used Imac which is currently being shipped to me.  Here are the specs: mid-2010 21.5 inches screen, model A1311, series: W8114294DAS, Intel Core I3 3.06 ghz processor.

    He will come running to El Capitan, but they advised me to wipe the drive and reinstall the original operating system, which is the snow leopard, and then upgrade from there to El Capitan, with my own Apple ID. However, it seems to be difficult with this particular model. If the computer is initially supplied with Snow Leopard 10.6.4. My drive of detail might not work for the re - install.  I was told that Apple would be able to ship me a custom. I've also read about yet another thread that maybe these models came with a slightly different version of Snow Leopard, and this is why the retail CD may not work, even if the computer came with version 10.6.3. and it would be better to get a custom. Is this true?

    Then there may be a problem with an update of the firmware that the computer may or may not have and which could cause problems (not allow Snow Leopard install at all, or instead to install Lion). Is it possible to say if he had this update and maybe disable it before attempting to erase and install Snow Leopard?

    Does anyone have advice/stories to share before I actually try it? Or what would be the best way to go about this? I thought that I would try my SL CD detail first, and I hope that it will work. Otherwise, I could order the CD on measure and try this one. If I can't erase, at least I didn't damage, but what happens if I erase the disc, but then failed to install Snow Leopard? I was left with a blank computer. Or I would be able to install it once the disc has been erased?

    Someone also said using SuperDuper may erase the disc elsewhere or at least to make a back-up? I have not used before. There is no personal information on the computer again, I would try to re - install before anything else, so I just need a way to install El Capitan under my Apple ID, then I'll be able to install updates, or even a new operating system, as it becomes available.

    Is there a risk to try to use my SL CD detail if it allows me to erase and install (such as the installation of the 'wrong' version of Snow Leopard)?

    Here is the link to the original thread: purchases used Imac tips?

    Thanks for any idea!

    You can try this much easier.

    1 - Connect to App store with your apple ID.

    2 - install download 10.11 - he will say that you have already installed just 10.11 to proceed.

    3. create a usb installation program.

    4 - start the installer - erase hard drive and install a clean copy of 10.11

    5. place the iMac with your apple ID.

    It will look like at its native resolution. On your Mac, the displayed video will be reduced as a result of your visible area onscreen.  That does not mean the video will look terrible, but not so good that it would have on the 4 k or 5 k.

  • How to remove my password to start connection using imac OSX EL Capitan 10.11.2

    How to remove my password to start using IMac OSX EL Capitan 10.11.2 connection

    Did you forgot the password?

    Or do you just want the mac connect to your account automatically, without you have to enter the password.

    I'm assuming the latter. If I'm wrong, let me know - there are also solutions for this.

    Log in normally and Access Preferences system-> users and groups. Click on the Options of connection at the bottom left. You may need to click the lock and enter your password to make changes. Change 'AutoConnect' from 'Off' to your account.

  • Setup using LV Runtime Engine 2010 build error

    I had an executable and installer work which was built in LV2009.  Since then, I changed my source code and registered as LV version 2010.  I have rebuilt the executable, but when I tried to run it on the target computer, I got an error message saying that it had LV Runtime Engine 2010.  So I tried to rebuild the installer using LV Runtime Engine 2010 as an extra Installer.  However, this version was missed and I got a long error msg that I don't understand (see attached).

  • Using a badge TV as monitor in Windows 7

    So, I got my computer in XP using my Insignia TV as a monitor using a VGA cable. I have a machine of windows 7 I would like to replace the XP machine with. The windows 7 machine works very well on my screen 19 '' little but when I try to use the TV as a monitor I get no a message of the TV signal as soon as I should get to the login screen. I updated my video card drivers (the last update has been less than a month) and changed my resolution 1024 x 768 and still no luck. If I start in safe mode and disable my graphics card it will work, but then I can't play games or enjoy my video card. Any suggestions?

    I'm done with an HDMI instead of VGA cable and it worked. If you do not have an HDMI output on your graphics card seems as if you were out of luck.
