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 an Acer Monitor to a MacBook
Look at the ports on the left side of the MacBook and the back of the Acer monitor. A MacBook can be connected to an external monitor that has either a DVI or VGA port. The ports on the monitor will either be labeled or have a corresponding icon next to them. If you are unsure what an icon means, look in the 'Features' section of your user manual. Make sure your Acer monitor model has the correct port.
Plug one end of the connection cable into the monitor and the other end into the MacBook. If you are using a DVI cable connection, plug each end directly into each device. If you are using a VGA cable connection, you have to use the mini-DVI-to-VGA adapter that comes with your MacBook. Plug one end of the VGA cable into the VGA end of the adapter and insert the adapter DVI end into the laptop. Plug the other end of the VGA cable into the monitor.
Turn on both devices. After your MacBook powers up, it will automatically detect and display the desktop on both screens. Your Acer monitor is now ready for configuration.
Click on the 'Apple' icon on the top left corner of the desktop. From the drop-down list, select 'System Preferences' followed by 'Display.' A new 'Display' window will appear that has the available options that can be changed. For example, you can change the screen resolution of the Acer monitor, change the arrangement of the displays and whether you want to mirror the MacBook's display, or extend the desktop to the Acer monitor.
