Message-ID: <830653.1101.qm@web110301.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> If I recall correctly you can buy a mini DVI to DVI or to VGA cable. It doesn't have to be apple brand. Since you have 2 external monitors with different connectors it's not going to be as easy as you want. Cabletogo.com may have a solution. I don't think anywhere in Iowa will have anything that helps. If they were both VGA you could buy a KVM switch. a VGA Y-cable/splitter (or called VGA 2-way splitter) was about $129-$300 and this was a few years ago. If this was a normal desktop computer, all you would have to do is add a second graphics video card with the appropriate port and hook it up. I'm getting rusty on the specs for Apple laptops... but if your laptop has both a standard VGA AND a mini DVI you can achieve your goal. If your laptop has a standard DVI AND a mini DVI then you can achieve your goal. if your laptop ONLY has the mini DVI then you need search the internet for a 2 or 3 way splitter. Lowendmac.com is a good resource I like to use. It might be of some help. I have a PC laptop that will let me close the laptop, but still display what I want on the external monitor as long as I have my standby function and some of my power settings adjusted. However, I have to make sure I sleep/hibernate/power down my laptop prior to connecting any external monitor. Hope this helps? --- On Mon, 6/22/09, Alexander Rhoads wrote: > From: Alexander Rhoads > Subject: [DM-MUG] Multiple-Monitor How-To? > To: dmmug at dmmug.org > Date: Monday, June 22, 2009, 2:34 PM > Being new to the world of multiple > monitors and the MiniDisplayPort > functionality, perhaps the group can help me out with what > undoubtedly > two fairly simple questions. > > I've got one of the new MacBookPro 13" with the following > video output > options through its "MiniDisplayPort": > > 1.

Message-ID: <98965.1953.qm@web110303.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> You purchase the mini DVI to DVI cable. then you purchase a 2 way DVI cable from the internet (looks like a Y cable) then. one part goes to MBP, one goes to the DVI monitor. Then the third connects to a DVI to VGA cable. The VGA portion connects to the VGA monitor. So you have the following chain MBP with one miniDVI >> mini DVI to DVI cable >> 2 way DVI cable the 'legs' of the 2 way DVI cable (shouldn't matter which leg goes where) 1 leg goes to the DVI monitor 1 leg connects to the DVI to VGA cable >> VGA Monitor. You may want to get a second opinion. You could easily spend about $200 or more in cables. There are external graphic cards (they really look similar to switch modules for TVs. These devices are small, easy to use, but the quality isn't much since they connect to your computer via USB or Firewire. Personally I really wouldn't invest in trying to connect to VGA unless it's an absolute daily need. DVI and VGA have different resolutions... One is digital info and the other converts digital info into analog signal (VGA) so a setting on one monitor may not look as good on the other.

For one, dsl loses transmit speed the further you are away from the local switch, so when they say "1.5Mbps download", they mean "1.5Mbps download *max*". They seem to do a pretty good job of getting pretty close to the 1.5Mbps max number, though. If you want that extra 700Kbps, just realize that you are giving up the ability to speak with someone from the United States if you have a problem. I've had to talk with someone in India 3-5 times to get a problem fixed every time I've had a problem. They always tell you to clear your browser cache, which does pretty much nothing (if I was having problems that seemed browser-cache related, I would have done that long before calling, but they assume that every customer is a driveling idiot). All-in-all, when qwest is working, I'm perfectly happy with it. When it's not, there's no point in calling tech support. You can call the local office and punch buttons until you're actually talking to someone near here to get some reasonable help or report an outage, but apparently you can't tell tech support anything useful, because they have no way to report to the local techies that something is wrong.

I'm not a Qwest representative and I personally use Iowa Telecom at home but I did want to put in some of my own experience. ?We chose Iowa Telecom because it was less expensive at the time we were looking for DSL. ?Since we've been hooked up our DSL/phones rates have crept up to about where the Qwest levels were.

This means: ? You won't be able to get help from Apple if you have trouble with the iPhone or its OS ? If the iPhone has any warranty left, unlocking/jailbreaking will void it ? Any iPhone OS or firmware updates will likely undo the unlock/jailbreak, and may in fact render the iPhone inopreative or "bricked" I don't have an iPhone myself, and haven't tried unlocking/jailbreaking one. I'm not necessarily saying you shouldn't do it, but it's very important that you know the risks before you proceed. In my opinion, it is irresponsible of an ISP to recommend unlocking/jailbreaking an iPhone, especially if they're not sure of your level of technical expertise. If you're not comfortable doing the unlock/jailbreak yourself, or re-doing or un-doing it as necessary, you shouldn't go down this road.

Are they talking about wi fi access? Or putting in a new sim card? I've read about people doing verizon on iphones with some success. They purchase the phone with ATT contract, cancel after one month and pay the $175 early cancellation charge. My wife and daughter can use any hot spot with the ipod touch. I am looking for a way of adding a microphone and doing skype on the touch. Good luck. Can you let us know how it works. Thanks C Better a live dog than a dead king.

The common technique is to disaccociate and then reconnect. I had to do this a couple times with it working sometimes and not others then it started working consistently (mine even shows up as a modem and I can connect to the internet). Click the bluetooth icon in the upper bar, presumably your device is listed there. Don't click it, insted click bluetooth preferences. Click once on the name of your phone and then hit the minus sign at the bottom left corner of the window. Then hit the plus sign and re-add it. For some mysterious reason you just have to do this once in a while. As I mentioned, after a few tries finally mine has a good connection and I haven't had to re-do it. And if it makes you feel better, I've had to do this on every operating system, not just Mac OS. Personally I don't understand why the phone doesn't show up as a mounted drive that I can just browse w/ finder. (it does if I use USB instead of bluetooth) But again, this is not just a mac thing... in Windows and Ubuntu I also have to use the "browse device" feature to look at it through a special window. -- Matthew Nuzum newz2000 on freenode, skype, linkedin, identi.ca and twitter -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Turns out I had a 10% coupon from them, so we got a bit better rate. We have a bit over 10 left. They wouldn't renew past 9 years. Our domain is now secured for the next 9 years. Victoria: I already got $15 in cash. I have an $8 check that came to my address made out to dmmug, so I'll get that to you (maybe via CW?) you can deposit that in the trust acct. and I just need the $82.44 minus 15. ($67.44).

Herring) Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2009 05:25:47 -0500 Subject: [DM-MUG] Meetings for the group Message-ID: We are working on the upcoming meeting schedule. You may recall that we hold meetings the 4th Tuesday of each month at Impromptu Studio downtown. [http://www.dmmug.org/ for details] We're trying to put together some program topics but have some Q. We could do a Survey Monkey but maybe this is just as well discussed here. [if you want to be anonymous, you can email your thoughts to me and I'll protect your identity] Why do you or would you come to meetings? Social interaction, learning something, getting out of the house, marketing and self-promotion, getting to know your Mac, being able to win and take home raffle prizes [even better ones on their way!] etc. We'd like to know all the reasons. Any thoughts on topics? General ones? We have talked about general topics around which we could program: security, maintenance, photos, music etc. What do YOU think? We'd like to improve the head count at meetings. What would help with that??? -- Victoria L. Herring, Des Moines, Iowa.

I do long distance motorcycle touring and I have a unit in my helmet w/microphone that links to my cell phone w/ bluetooth. Every time I step away from the bike and leave my hemet there the Bluetooth disconnects, sometimes........ not always. I know there's a "grace" period when it goes standby but it's not consistent. Oh well, no big deal as my phone beeps at me and wants to know if I would like to reconnect, but not always :) Just my .02 but in actuality it's only .01 at the moment.

Any publication data and availability info to share? ISBN #? Publisher? Bookseller? --Smith Thank you for asking. I'm surprised to have gotten responses to this (got another privately)...I just assumed that the folks on a computer group wouldn't be interested in the details or that it would be considered off-topic, even if your advice during the long writing process was useful. The book is: THE RELUCTANT VEGETARIAN COOKBOOK: An Easy Introduction to Cooking without Meat, Eggs and other Once-Favorite Foods by Sharalyn Pliler Illustrated by Genreva Daly Published July 6, 2009 by Authorhouse ISBN: 978-1-4389-8519-0 The books are available through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Authorhouse (look-inside coming soon) or directly through me, for $14.95 plus $3.50 shipping. It is also available as an ebook on the Authorhouse website. My under-construction website is www.freshfoodsings.com, where both the paperback and the ebook will be available sometime in the future, hopefully soon. Other bookstores will carry it but it generally takes a couple of months to get them on the shelves. Reviewers have been very positive (although reviews are not yet posted) as it is a funny, practical and well-written book. Thanks again for asking. Half the fun is being able to share the info with friends and to feel proud that I actually, finally, got one of my books in print. Whether it is 3rd party or self-published, is a big deal to get a book published because there is SOOOOO much work involved. But I did it because my belief that the economy is going to crash has given me the determination to do things that I might otherwise lack the courage or motivation to do. The result, even with some mistakes scattered through it, is something that has been bringing me a lot of satisfaction just because I did it. Being disabled, I did it working mostly from a hospital bed where I have my computer hooked up to a 32" TV and use a separate keyboard on my lap, and where I survived a serious computer crash in which I lost large sections of another book. (Whatever caused the crash, it was so bad that even the back up drive had to be erased. But the cookbook was okay.) This was probably a lot more info than you wanted, but thanks so much for asking and letting me share about my accomplishment.
