How to Connect a Macbook to the Sony Bravia


Connect a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter to the Macbook. In order to connect the Macbook to the Sony Bravia, you need to use HDMI cables. Apple Macbooks do not contain any HDMI ports. The Macbook's Mini DisplayPort and an adapter should be used instead. Attach the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter into the available Mini DisplayPort.
Combine the HDMI cable with the adapter. Using the open end of the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, connect a HDMI cable into the open slot of the adapter.
Connect a mini-pin audio cable to the Macbook. Insert one end of the mini-pin audio cable into the open audio/in slot on the side of the laptop (3.5mm headphones also fit into the Macbook's audio/in slot).
Attach the Macbook to the Sony Bravia. Connect the open end of the HDMI cable (that's attached to the Macbook) into one of the HDMI 'In' ports on the back of the television. Additionally, plug in the mini-pin audio cable into the 'PC/HDMI Audio In' slot in the rear of the Bravia.
Turn on the Macbook's display mode. Press the Macbook's 'Fn' key and 'F10' at the same time to transfer the Macbook's display to the television.
View the Macbook's display on the Bravia television. Using your remote, select the input button to change the television input. Select the 'HDMI 1' or 'HDMI 2' output to display the Macbbok's screen on the television. When finished, disconnect the HDMI cable and audio cable from both the Bravia and the Macbook.

How to Connect a Video Camera to a Mac (4 Steps)


You probably already have the proper FireWire cable, as most of today's modern video cameras will have one included in the box. If you don't, you'll need to get a FireWire cable, available at most computer and electronics stores. It's important to make sure that you get a FireWire cable made especially for transferring video from your recorder to your Mac. Nearly all video recorders use a four-pin connector, so you'll need to purchase a FireWire cable, sometimes called an IEEE 1394 cable, with a four-pin connector on one side and a six-pin connector on the other.
The first step is to locate the four-pin FireWire port on your video camera. On most video cameras, you'll find it located under a plastic or rubber boot. Leave the video camera powered off and simply lift up the boot from the camera and insert the smaller four-pin end of the FireWire cable into the the FireWire port of the camera.
Once the video camera is connected, take the other end of the FireWire cable, the larger six pin end, and insert it into the FireWire port of your Mac. When both of the cables are connected, you can turn on the power to your video camera.
In a few seconds your Mac should automatically launch iMovie. Follow the on-screen instructions on your Mac and begin the video transfer from your video camera to your Mac.
