So i have a small problem with trying to connect my 2011 13.3 MacBook Pro (i7 version) to my 32" HCT HDTV (is an ATSC +NTSC System, 1080p Input). This is my first attempt to connect my MacBook to an HDTV...
Today i bought a Belkin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter and connected it to my MacBook and HDTV.
When I connected it, all that pops up is the Original Apple wallpaper.
I can see my dock when i scroll over it.
But none of my programs are can pull up at all.
Also, the Apple Bar up top, (Finder, File, Edit etc...) isnt showing.
-The Resolution is 1280x1080.
-I have the adapter plugged into my HDMI & Thunderbolt ports.
I thought that that'd be the only cable i'd need & that'd it'd be quick and simple...
I'm also guessing that the Mini Display Port to HDMI Adapter isn't the Cable i need?
Will i need a separate cable for sound too?
What settings do I need to configure if i need to?
How do i fix this?
If anyone can please help me out, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
