How to Network a Toshiba Television to a Mac

Power off your Toshiba television set.
Click the Apple logo at the upper left of your Mac, then click “Shutdown.” A message appears, asking you to verify that you want to turn off your Mac. Click “Shut Down” once more to confirm.
Locate the video input port on your Toshiba television. Typically video in ports are located on the back of a television. Consult the manufacturer’s owner’s manual for details about your specific TV model. New Toshiba TVs come with HDMI video input ports.
Insert the Mini DisplayPort-to-HDMI adapter’s Mini DisplayPort connector into the Thunderbolt port on your Mac. The Thunderbolt port is marked with an icon of a lightning bolt, and it accepts both Thunderbolt connectors and Mini DisplayPort connectors.
Connect the HDMI connector of the Mini DisplayPort-to-HDMI adapter to the HDMI input on your Toshiba television.
Power on your Toshiba TV and press the “Input” button on the remote repeatedly until you have switched to HDMI input.
Power on your Mac.
Click the Apple logo, then click “System Preferences,” and then click “Displays.” Click the “Show Displays in Menu Bar” check box, and then click “Detect Displays.” The Mac detects the connected Toshiba TV and automatically sets the correct resolution to display the contents of the Mac’s screen on the Toshiba screen.
Click the icon of a monitor on the menu bar of your Mac, and then click “Turn on Mirroring” from the pull-down menu if you want your Toshiba TV to show what’s appearing on your Mac’s display. If you don’t turn on the mirroring feature, the Toshiba TV serves as a second monitor to extend your computer’s desktop, onto which you can position files, folders and application windows, including video applications, such as DVD Player or QuickTime.
Click the Apple logo, then click “System Preferences” and then click “Sound” if you do not hear audio from your Mac on the Toshiba. Click “Output,” and then click “HDMI” to select it.

How to Transfer an AppleCare Warranty (3 Steps)

Ask the person to whom you are planning to transfer the plan to look over the terms and conditions of the plan. These were included in the plan’s original packaging and can also be accessed online at Apple.com or by clicking on the link in the Resources for this article. The person to whom you are planning to transfer the plan must agree to these terms and conditions for the transfer to be considered valid by Apple.
Give the device’s new owner the original proof of purchase for the AppleCare warranty, the certificate you received when you purchased the plan and the receipt for the covered Apple product. These materials may be requested by Apple if the device’s new owner needs to have it repaired under the warranty. Apple also requests that you give all additional materials that were included with the AppleCare protection plan to the device’s new owner; however, these materials will not be requested from Apple at a later date.
Send Apple an e-mail, fax or letter stating that you are transferring the plan to another person. Your notification needs to include the Plan Agreement Number (which can be found on your AppleCare Protection Plan certificate), the serial number of the Apple device covered by the warranty, the full name, mailing address, telephone number and email address of the device’s new owner.
