If you don't have a Mac, I'm not sure this adapter works. Make sure the proper input is selected on the TV and the connectors are pushed in all the way. Also, try connecting the adapter with the computer turned off. !f that's the way you did it, try connecting with the computer turned on. We need more detail (model of computer, model of TV,etc.) for more detailed advice.

don't actually think this works. the few times it connects properly is for very short amount of time. buy the same brand adapter at best buy, it works from best buy. you can show that amazon has it cheaper and maybe get them to match it?

Try tuning the tv on first then restart the computer after that you can connect the rockfish adapter

I also, get a blank screen? I was going to send it back, but I wasn't sure if it was something I wasn't doing

I've been thinking about this. If it really is a blank purple screen this will not apply. But if you are running a Mac and the purple screen looks like a picture of space...that's Mac `wallpaper.' This being the case, try this procedure:-plug in-Go to Apple System Preferences-Select Displays-TSB-TV window will pop up-Click on 'Arrangement' tab-Check "Mirror Displays"Done

Hi Lydia - I've encountered this myself. . .I am not sure if you are using a Mac or PC. Regardless, you want to go find the settings window on your computer and turn on your mirroring function. Then the same display you have on your computer screen should appear on your TV.

connect to actual cable that is either dish/comcast service to see if tv works. if it does get boost assist signal amplifier dont go cheap, get the best you can.

My first bit of advice would be to isolate the source of the problem (is it the TV or converter?). Try hooking it up to another TV (or a friends, etc). Incidentally, I have mine hooked up to a Sony TV - works great (knock on wood)...Good luck...

Just plug link stick into a USB port and turn on the Internet with your remote, if that dosnt work turn on your co mounter and try again, maybe your TV is not set up for the Internet

Call the company, they may have tried to do a software upgrade on the TV and it got stuck... that happened to mine once. She had me unplug it, the plug it back in and hold the power button while she sent a refresh signal then tried to push the download. Took almost an hour to get it working right.

Using the Displayport input, I could not get anything to work. I used an HDMI cable and it worked fine. Do you see the blue power light when you switch it on? If not, maybe defective.

have not been able to view anything on the monitor. Still waiting for matching receiver.

after I installed mine and turned on TV it worked normally so maybe you need to reinstall as may not be seated properly. If that's not it must have other problems

Vickie, In the end I was not able to resolve the issue. I had 2 technicians out to try to fix it, but they weren't able to. Sharp is sending me a new TV (which is being delivered tomorrow afternoon). I'll let you know if it works any better.

I'm sorry for you bit did you set up your network? Mine works perfectly after I connected with my cable network

My Netflix icon showed up right away. I did have a connection issue when initially setting up the TV. I called the 800 number that is listed on the owned manual and they were very helpful. Try calling LG.

I've never tried to connect to my TV. Might want to check with maybe the Geek Squad at Best Buy or someone like that as I don't want to give you incorrect info. Sorry I couldn't assist.

1st off, make sure it is HDMI CABLE directly it the Tv and not on a switcher, that's what I did and finally figured it has to be connected directly, if that isn't it, call sony

hello friend, wanted to do the same as you, but in my tv did not work, try connecting to other terminals and never got a picture, I think the cables are defective or do not work, I do not know, I do not work for me

You might need a firmware update for your TV. Most TVs with that support this allow it through multiple means, including via USB stick. Check your TV's user manual or consult the manufacturer's website. You might also check to see if you can plug an ethernet cable into it.

I have the same problem, same tv, same dvi to hdmi adapter, etc...Except I've got an ATI Radeon 8500. I wonder if it's an issue with the tv input and not the video card? Did you ever find a resolution?

no. the WiFi is working perfect. I have 2 TVs. both of them connect with no issues.
