Connecting a MacBook to a TV?
I'm sure there's a way but the forum stuff I'm finding from Googling is a bit confusing.Anyone use a plain ole MacBook to view movies on their TV?We've got some instant watches set up on Netflix but don't want to stare at a tiny screen.... TIA!
Our IF journey: 1 m/c, 1 IVF with only 3 eggs retrieved yielding Dylan and a lost twin, 1 shocker unmedicated BFP resulting in Jace, 3 more unmedicated pregnancies ending in more losses.
Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.
Re: Connecting a MacBook to a TV?
What type of TV do you have. Does it have HDMI, S-Video, Composite or Component?
Depending what you have, helps me answer your question.
Hmmm.... technology illiterate here.
I know it's not HDMI.
It's older - not HD
It's got an s-video port on the back.
It's got the 3 RCA jacks in the front. The 2 audio (red and whilte) and 1 video (yellow).
Sorry... I'm really clueless...

Okay. Assuming you own the same type of MacBook that we have, you need this to get the video to your TV:

For sound, you need something similar to this:
