I have 23 inch Apple HD Display. Will this work with my MacBook Pro? How shall I connect it?

yarova818,
there were two different 23-inch Apple Cinema HD displays made. The first one was made between 2002 and 2004, and has an ADC connector. The second one was made between 2004 and 2008, and has a DVI-D connector.
If you have the display with an ADC connector, then according to this Apple page, your display will work with your MacBook Pro if it’s a 13-inch or 15-inch model. If you have a first-generation MacBook Pro, you’d need an Apple DVI to ADC Adapter (or equivalent) to connect them. If you have a Unibody or Retina MacBook Pro, then you’d also need a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter (or equivalent) to complete the connection. A Retina model would also have the option of using a third-party HDMI to DVI-D adapter to complete the connection with the DVI to ADC adapter.
If you have the display with a DVI-D connector, then if you have a first-generation MacBook Pro, you should be able to plug it in directly. If you have a Unibody or Retina MacBook Pro, then the Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter would let you make the connection. Again, Retina models also would have the option of using a third-party HDMI to DVI-D adapter.

Will this work with my MacBook Pro?

Thanks!

No, the MBP's security slot is reinforced for just that purpose. If it gets yanked on, damage from the MBP being pulled off the table/desk much more likely than any damage to the slot itself...
Hope this helps...

Apple 23" HD Cinema Display no longer working with new Macbook Pro

I bought a 23" used HD Cinema display the other day along with the ADC-DVI and DVI-Mini Display adapters. I had it hooked up and it was working perfectly for 3 days. Today my wife tried to connect her Macbook accidentally via the USB that is part of the ADC-DVI adapter which didn't work (why is that USB there anyway?). Then when she went to connect the external display back to my Macbook Pro it did not wake up after being connected. I have tried resetting the PRAM on the MBP and have disconnected and re-connected all connections but nothing will get the display working with the MBP anymore. When I connect and disconnect the mini-display plug into the MBP the MBP flashes the blue screen as it appears to be reacting, but that's it. I can't detect any display when I go into the display system preferences. Does anyone know how I can get the Apple Cinema display working again? Thanks for any help.

Upon reflection, I think my issue is different. Probably should not have posted it here. As it turns out sometimes my display works, sometimes it does not. I think the power adapter has gone bad. A common occurrence here in Mexico where the power can fluctuate quite a bit. - Ryan
There are couple of long threads in the display section about problems with the power supplies on the 23" HD DVI. See this one for instance: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17981683#17981683
Mine one day just wouldn't turn on -- connected to an old G4 MDD and the Mini -- a bit of fiddling it would occasionally start up, sometimes not. Similar to what you described, the Macs would see it in System Profiler, but it just wouldn't turn on.
Based on that thread, I figured the problem was mostly likely the power supply. A local authorized repair place didn't have a spare for me to try, but the tech sniffed it and mentioned it the burnt electronics smell. LOL, I sniffed it and sniffed the power supply for my 20" DVI Cinema display -- indeed a weird smell.
Based on that thread, I decided to bite the bullet and buy a beefier 150" power supply for the 30" Cinema display, which Apple says in compatible with the 23". See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2803
I hooked it up, crossed my fingers, and it fired up right away. It's been working fine for about 3 months now. Cheaper than buying a new monitor.

Will this work with my Macbook/ Macbook Pro

I'm asking this question in a vague enough way that the answer will at least help people with their questions
1) I have a first-gen Macbook. Will this work and/or what adapters will I need for the monitor
2) I have a Macbook Pro, most recent before this refresh. Will it work with the monitor and/or what adapters will I need for the monitor

None of the new models released this week have any sort of DVI port. They all use a new graphics port called the Mini DisplyPort. This port does not adhere to the DVI standards because it is a new standard in itself. Google DisplayPort and you can find some technical info on it.
Apple has said that this will become the graphics port on all of its products in the future.

17" Cinema Display doesn't work with new MacBook Pro

I have used a 17" Cinema Display with a MacBook Pro without problems for the last year. I just bought a new MacBook Pro and a Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter. Hooked it up and no display. Reconnected to my olf MBP without the Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter and it still works great. Any thoughts?

I have the same machine and the same drive (for about 6 months) they work fine.
The first suspect is the internal SATA cable, replace it.

Will the new Apple wireless keyboard and mouse work with my Macbook Pro?

Looking at purchasing a wireless keyboard and mouse for my Macbook Pro. Figured the one made by apple will work, but not sure... Any suggestions on a good wireless keyboard and mouse, or knowledge on whether Apples will work or not?

keyboard: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Apple/MC184LLANB/
magic mouse: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Apple/MB829LLABB/
I just got them last week and the keyboard is new and the mouse is used but looks brand new. And you get a free pair of AA bateries with the mouse. And you can get 2AA batteries for the keyboard for an extra $1.29 I highly recommend going this route as I did very recently and am very pleased.

Will this work on my Macbook Pro 13" (Early 2011)

I was looking for a game to play on my Macbook Pro and I was wondering if Call of Duty 2 would work on it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ETJJAE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i02 I I am running Lion 10.7.4. I actually already bought this product but hesitant on opening it because I have read a few reviews of people having problem with it. I also went to the Aspyr website. http://www.aspyr.com/games/call-of-duty-2 I'll return it to Amazon if it doesn't work. Please help!

Try different USB cables.
Try a different enclosure.
Try all USB ports.
Try it on another Mac.
Is no success, the SSD may be DOA.
Ciao.

Getting comcast cable/internet...Will it work with my Macbook Pro?

We are getting Comcast tomorrow...we currently have AT&T internet and my Mac is always getting kicked off my internet, onto a "belkin54g" that barely works. This is getting really annoying, but tomorrow we are getting the comcast internet/cable thingy. So is comcast going to work with my laptop O.K.? or will we have trouble with that too? because I am really tired of being kicked offline all the time. Thanks!

It sounds like you're having problems with your router, not with your ISP. If that's the case, and you don't replace the router, you'll probably continue to have the same problems.

My Apple bluetooth keyboard will not reconnect with my MacBook Pro...

It's been working flawlessly until this morning...I tried everything. It's still listed under devices but keeps giving an error message for connecting. New batteries and all. I rebooted my comp and also tried the erasing of keyboard in the previous BT devices list. I've been battling with this for over 3 hours now, any help will be greatly appreciated!

Try resetting the SMC.

My wife and I have separate Ids but all our music is in one library. How will this work with iCloud?

My wife and I have separate Ids but all our music is in one library. How will this work with iCloud? i'm trying to download past purchases from her id, but itunes is saying that I can't because the computer is associated with my apple id. Can I associate the computer with both ids for the purpose of identifying all of our music with both or just one of our ids? Is there a good way to do this? I'm sure we're not the only people with this problem...

You cannot merge two separate libraries across user accounts. Photos does not have the function of merging different Photos.library files. If you have Aperture then you can merge the two before migrating over to Photos.

HT4623 I have purchased a Epson Workforce 435, can't AirPrint, will this work with the first gen iPad?

I have purchased a Epson Workforce 435, can't AirPrint, will this work with the first gen iPad?

Also i forgot to add after a night of searching how to turn the Epson Workforce 435 printer into Airprint friendly and not iPrint (which are 2 completely different things) i donwloaded a program called (AirPrint Activator) from HandyPrint. The link is below to download the software. Once i installed the application i set my printer to be shared over my Home Network (Wi-Fi Network). Once you have done that, open the AirPrint Activator application you have just downloaded, swtich it ON from OFF mode, and then you should easily see your printer name in my case EPSON Workforce 435 and then just close the application. Then go to your IOS Device like your iphone/ipad/ipod touch select a picture that you want to test print or even an attached PDF from your email, and select Print in the share button. You will then be prompted to select your printer. Your printer you automatically be recongised then just select print. And now you have a complete AirPrint ready printer with a Printer that doesnt even support the function. Im sure you can do this to all Wireless Printers, even if they came out before Apple AirPrint service launch.
And also if you still need guidance and a video to follow from just click the Youtube link below

I just bought a new iMac and am ready to purchase Logic Pro X, but I have a Presonus Fire Studio Project with a firewire 400 as my connection. Will this work with my new iMac? I purchased the Presonus around 2007.

I just bought a new iMac 10.9 and am wanting to purchase Logic Pro X. My question is I have a 2007 Presonus Fire Studio Project 8 channel input box that hooks up with firewire 400 I believe, will this work with Logic ProX on my new iMac?

You will need a Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter... may also need a Firewire 800 to 400 connector/adapter.
Also need to make sure Presonus has Maverick drivers for the FSP.

Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009?

Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009 (mini display port? The image passes through the mini display port to the monitor, but the connections (Firewire, USB, ethernet) do not work. Can you confirm?

I'd love to get confirmation if this is the case too. I was all ready to buy the new iMac until I found I couldn't use it as an external monitor for my DisplayPort-based MacBook Pro. And then I was all ready to buy the new display.
I really hope Apple hasn't restricted this to purely Thunderbolt-equipped Macs. I know I'll end up upgrading my MacBook at some point but I can't do so just yet, and this means I'll have to go for some third-party display, camera, speakers etc for the new Mac Mini which is crazy.

TS3510 I only have one apple ID and facetime has worked with it before, but now I get the message "Unable to verify email because it is already in use". I have looked ofr a solution but can't find one. can anyone help please?

I only have one apple ID and facetime has worked with it before, but now I get the message "Unable to verify email because it is already in use". I have looked ofr a solution but can't find one. can anyone help please?

I spoke with Apple Support this morning and they believe anything MobileMe related is due to the conversion over to iCloud that's taking place.
As for other email clients, check with your host to see if settings have changed on their end. I use inmotionhosting.com and over the weekend the updated their outgoing requirements so that a password authentication is now needed.
Hope that helps get some on the right path to resolving their issues!
