MacBook Pro doesn't detect tv as display.

MacBook Pro doesn't detect tv as display when connected via Mini Display Port to HDMI adapter.

Hi l,
Is it possible to try another adapter? There have been a number of posts here about faulty adapters. Also, have you checked in Display Preferences? Selected the proper input on the TV?

    I have a MacBook Pro 13 Mid-2012 running 10.10.1
    Here's the link i found     my macbook pro does not detect external display anymore

    Just one bit of data...
    I don't know what the deal is, but I had a similar situation.  (It all worked fine, then I upgraded to 10.9.5 and it didn't work any more, but then I upgraded to 10.10 and then it worked.  Then it wouldn't.  but once in a while it would.  It made no sense. )  In the end I got a different (more expensive) adapter and cable and everything works properly.

    My MacBook Pro doesn't have a mini DisplayPort what can I do so that I can use my Cinema Display?

    You have a Dual-link DVI port. Try Monoprice to see if they might have an adapter.

  • PLEASE HELP! My MacBook Pro doesn't fall asleep

    My MacBook Pro doesn't fall asleep on its own any more. Currently, my Energy saver is set so that the display falls asleep after 1 minute, and the computer itself, after 3 minutes. Even if I don't have any softwares running, or anything else, it doens't fall asleep. Please give me some suggestion about what to do about this! (or would I need to take it to a shop? ... )

    Well, since the machine does properly sleep when the lid is closed, my guess would be that you have a software conflict and not a hardware problem. Since your are up to date, have repaired permissions, and can't remember anything else that may have changed, it could be difficult to track down the culprit.
    One thing you can try, it takes a bit of work but will help show if software is the real problem. You could create a new user account, and don't install anything new in it. Log in as the new user, and see if sleep works there. Often as you use your main user profile, you accumulate software programs and utilities, and sometimes then can conflict with one another. If you create a fresh user account, often it will not have the same software conflict.
    If the new account sleeps normally, then you can assume that you have a software conflict somewhere, and you should think through what you have installed. If the new user account has the same problem, my guess would be that something is out of whack with the OS, and you need to decide if a full system reinstall is worth it (that is a big decisions, don't just jump into it).
    Regardless of the outcome, after you have used the second account for a test, you can simply delete it.
    Cheers,

  • Late 2011 Macbook pro will not detect HDMI

    I recently purchased a MDP to HDMI adpater for my late 2011 macbook pro (I have OS X 10.7.5). I hooked it up to my television and tried to use it as a monitor but my macbook pro refused to detect display. Heck the screen didn't even turn blue when I hooked the adapter up. I wanted to make sure my port was working and hooked up my MDP to VGA and it worked like a charm the screen turned blue and my cintiq was detected immediately. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem as well?
    Ther is a possiblity that it is the actual adapter because I bought a floor model in an effort to save some bucks. So I'm going to take it back for an exchange later on today and see if that works. But if that isn't the case does anyone know how to resolve this issue.

    Did you click the "Detect Displays" button in System Preferences > Displays?:
    Bottom-right?

  • My macbook pro will not detect any external monitors

    My macbook pro will not detect any external monitors, worked 'once' when connect to a TV.
    Have read a lot of web comments, most not very usefull.

    Hi a,
    Check the setting in Sys Prefs > Displays.
    Try a different adapter and/or cable.

  • I have a mid 2009 Macbook Pro and i know the Mini-display port does not support audio out but does it support HDMI out? or do i have to buy a Mini-display to DVI and then a DVI to HDMI adapters?

    Run MDP to HDMI for picture. Use a cable like this to run sound from your audio out on your Mac to your TV's audio in.  That's about all  you can do.

    Random35,
    does your wi-fi router filter access by MAC address? If it does, then have you added your MacBook Pro’s MAC address to your router’s whitelist of acceptable MAC addresses?

    My Macbook Pro can't detect or read my CDFS file system external HDD

    Open Disk Utility and see if the USB drives show in there. If they don't then it is a USB port or bus problem. If they do show in disk utility are they formatted in either Mac extended or a Windows format?

  • Macbook Pro no longer support Apple Cinema Display after graphic update 1.0

    I recently updated my system to ver. 10.5.2 and after that I updated to graphic system 1.0. After that my macbook pro began to have several problems dealing with my 23" Apple Cinema Display.
    1- if started in 'closed lid' mode it gives me a kernel panic (shaded screen) error during start up
    2- if started in 'open lid' mode it boots fine but whether i decide to close the lid it fails to wake from sleep mode. It starts for one or two seconds and then it gets back to sleep.
    So, I made a long time taking test during the weekend and after several "archive and install" I found that this issue is related to the leopard graphic system update 1.0. Somehow this update mess up the way that macbook pro deals with my Apple Cinema Display.
    I hope that someone at Apple will address this issue toward a solution in a short time.
    I appreciate any other experience in this sense by anybody.
    Thank you for any reply.

    Check out the 'Apple Displays' forum and you'll find that you are not alone. MBP/Cinema Display relationship broken since graphics updater. Hopefully an Apple patch soon, or it's time for an Archive and Install w/o updating the graphics.

  • My macbook pro no longer detects my camera.

    My macbook pro no longer detects my camera.
    After downloading thousands of photos, my mac no longer sees my camera.  Nothing has changed.  I have tried restarting the mac, using fresh batteries, different usb ports. When I try to download photos, iphoto opens up on it’s own, but my camera does not show up.  Neither does it show up in any finder window, or under disk utilities.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • My MacBook Pro doesn't start; in safe mode shift CMD V the message "disk0s2: media is not present" is written on the screen repeatedly but the MacBook doesn't start.  Do you have any ideas of why this should be or what I should do to resolve this?

    My MacBook Pro doesn't start; in safe mode <shift CMD V> the message "disk0s2: media is not present" is written on the screen repeatedly but the MacBook doesn't start.  Do you have any ideas of why this should be or what I should do to resolve this?  Thanks  Eamonn

    Thanks for these suggestions: I have tried safe mode re-starts (both "verbose" and simple "shift" + power) to no avail.  I get the error message "disk0s2: media is not present".  Following this I inserted the installation disc and from there ran disc utility.  The "Verify Disk" indicated an error " invalid sibling link" which it could not repair.
    I also tried to completely re-format/erase the disk, but again got an error message "disk object invalid or unable to serialize".
    Any ideas of what could be causing this or the best solution?  I fear I am fast running out of options.

    Your notebook computer must be awake to do what you want to do.
    Get yourself a longer cable, or buy an Apple-TV box and do it wirelessly.
