raziiq Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Hey there i m having this weird kinda problem. My Computer works fine but whenever i try to have a Dual Screen Display by pressing Fn + F5 (Toshiba Dynabook Dual Display Shortcut) , i get an Apple Grey Screen. Interesting thing is that my display is transferred to my TV but my TV shows Apple Grey Screen and when i transfer back my display by pressing the above key combination i get the same Apple Grey screen on my Laptop screen as well. P.S. i m using Svideo out cable From my Laptop to my TV. Any Suggestions?

josephien Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 what happens if you press that key combination for a 3rd time? it can be that you cloned the displays by pressing it a second time...

josephien Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 i didn't see that it was on an tv, making tv work is not easy, still trying here... did you try via preferences and then displays an then the detect displays? by the way , be sure to boot without the tv connected, i've read that it gives better results that way Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/134088-apple-grey-screen-on-dual-display/#findComment-955088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
raziiq Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 ya i know that so booted without tv connected, still same. As far as Display settings are concerned, i did click Detect Display but no results, i read somewhere that i ll get some display properties if Leopard detects an external display, but leopard never detects which is a problem. Still searching for the solution, hope to get it soon.

raziiq Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 its really strange that although i have got that Apple Grey screen on my Lappy and TV Screen but still i have my Lappy working, i mean that i can hear that movie sounds but cant make my graphics to work, which means that my Lappy is not frozen its working but Graphics are not shown, only Apple Grey screen on both Lappy and TV Anyone??
