How to Make a Soft Tip Stylus for the iTouch


Test your kitchen sponge by brushing it across the iPod touch's screen to make sure it can be detected by the device. Organic sponges typically perform the best, but you may need to experiment with different types and brands to find one that the iPod touch can detect.
Cut a rectangular piece of sponge approximately 1 inch by 2 inches. The depth is determined by the depth of the kitchen sponge, but is ideally around 1 inch.
Squash the sponge and roll it into a tight cylindrical shape 1 inch long.
Wrap the thin copper wire around half of the sponge to help it keep its cylindrical shape. Leave at least 6 inches of copper wire free.
Twist or unscrew the artist's charcoal holder to open it wide enough to slide the copper-bound side of the sponge cylinder into it. Tighten the holder to grip the sponge, leaving approximately one-quarter of an inch of sponge protruding from the holder. The free piece of wire should also protrude from the end of the holder.
Wind the remaining length of wire around the holder. Keep the wire tight, though the spiral can be quite wide. Secure the wire at the opposite end of the holder to the sponge using a piece of sticky tape. The stylus is now ready for use on your iPod touch.

How to Connect a Sanyo Pro


Locate the video out port on your computer and determine if you have a VGA or DVI connection. VGA ports are square in shape with circular holes in the center of the port while DVI ports are rectangular with square-shaped holes.
Plug one end of the VGA or DVI cable into the port on your computer.
Connect the other end of the cable into the VGA or DVI port on the Sanyo projector. Turn on the projector.
Click the Windows orb and click the 'Control Panel' option. Type 'projector' into the search box and click 'Connect to a Projector' in the results that appears. Click the 'Duplicate' or 'Extend' option in the display type field to send video to the projector.
Press the 'Input' button on the projector's control panel until the image from the computer appears on the projector's screen.

How to Connect a MacBook Pro to a Samsung TV (5 Steps)


Examine the backside of your Samsung TV to find which display ports are available. Apple produces Mini DisplayPort adapters that are compatible with DVI, HDMI --- with a third-party adapter --- and VGA cables, so you'll want to see which port type your TV has in common. HDMI ports are semi-rectangular, while VGA ports are rhombus-shaped with several rows of pins. DVI ports feature a grid with multiple female pinholes.
Plug the rhombus-shaped end of the corresponding Mini DisplayPort adapter into your MacBook Pro. The DVI, HDMI and VGA Mini DisplayPort adapters all feature the same functionality, so which type you use ultimately comes down to personal preference.
Plug one end of the corresponding display cable into the other side of the Mini DisplayPort adapter.
Connect the other end of the display cable into the appropriate port on the Samsung TV.
Turn on both devices, if you haven't yet done so. Set the TV's TV/Video settings to the corresponding mode --- HDMI if you're connected via HDMI, for instance --- to begin using the MacBook Pro on the TV.
