Please be sure to Most classrooms at Drew offer the capability to connect a laptop to the installed projection system for academic classes. You can also contact the Media Resource Center (MRC) at x3342 well in advance of a class period or event during which you would like to project from your Mac laptop. We are happy to help you do this, but doing so in advance is always better to ensure proper function.
Note that the MRC does not provide adapters to connect a Mac to the system. You will need to bring your own Mac VGA adapter with you. If you have any questions about which adapter will work in Drew's systems, contact the MRC before you purchase one.
If you do encounter trouble with the connection or projection during a class, please call our support line from the house phone at 1ITS. If this occurs during an event, call the Event Support Line at 973-665-2100 from any phone.

Different Mac laptops come with various ports and adapters that can be used to connect to a projector. You must have the appropriate adapter to convert your laptop's output to a "VGA" connection. Drew University neither stocks nor sells these adapters; they can be purchased at any Apple store among other places. |

Instructional Technology Services provides and supports VGA connection to the classroom systems. Mac users should be aware that in some situations Mac laptops are not able to complete the connection properly. We strongly advise that you call to schedule a test and demonstration well in advance of the day/time you plan on projecting from you Mac. You might also consider saving your material to a network or USB drive in a PC readable format as a backup if your room is equipped with a desktop computer. |
