Hi,
I've scoured the forums but can't find anything that answers my question specifically or is simplified enough for me to understand (I'm not so well-versed in technology).
I want to use my macbook as a DVD player in my dorm room essentially. I have a Philips TV (old, nothing fancy), but no DVD player. How can I watch my DVD's that I put into my macbook on my TV?
I bought a mini-DVI to VGA adaptor after one of the "geniuses" at my nearby Apple Store told me to. I also have RCA video cables for video and audio (the red, white, and yellow ones). But there's obviously something I'm missing.
Or maybe I need a different kind of adaptor entirely? Now I see this on the Apple website...maybe this is what I should have bought?
Apple Store (U.S.) - VGA Display Adapter
If someone can explain this clearly and tell me exactly what I need to buy, I'd really appreciate it!! Thanks so much.
