  • Thunderbolt port not working as dvi in New iMac, is there any fix for it?. I have a Samsung SyncMaster 2494 SW

    Just bought the new iMac, also bought apple's mini dvi adapter, when connecting to Samsung SyncMaster 2494sw i get a snow kind of pattern and sometimes let me see apple desktop through it, i tried changing resolutions but nothing, is it a software issue?

    Well my friend, after 3 1/2 agonizing hours at he apple store, those "genious" declare that iMac came with defective thunderbolt/dvi to extra monitor , not mine, ALL OF THE NEW iMACS!!!!, shame on apple man, i had to spend 300 extra dls buying a new monitor with hdmi input to solve this crap that apple just did, is not fear coming out with a new product that can handle something so simple. i wish i could report this issue to someone that hears it and make something about it since i do not think this is a minor issue since this new iMac main feature was the thunderbolt port

  • Connecting a macbook to a samsung syncmaster T220HD

    I have recently bought a macbook and want to connect it to my samsung syncmaster T220HD. Does anyone know what type of adapter I would need to use?
    thanks x

    Hi!
    If you bought the late 2008 MacBook you need either a MiniDisplayport to VGA or MiniDisplayport to DVI adaptor.

  • Problem: Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter with Samsung Syncmaster 2033HD

    Hi,
    I am using the Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter to connect to a Samsung Syncmaster 2033HD
    However, I get No Signal with DVI as the Source.
    It works when plugged into the DVI slot of the Mac Pro.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    DisplayPort and its variant Mini DisplayPort, use a new and different protocol for communicating with your display.
    A properly-functioning adapter can request the DisplayPort use "Dual-Mode", which produces a good approximation of single-Link DVI/HDMI. This is good for resolutions up to 1920 wide, which would include your Samsung (1600 by 900).
    Wider displays require a more expensive "active" "powered" converter, to convert DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI.
    So if the display works with a straight DVI connection, but not a DisplayPort adaptation to "Dual Mode" DVI the weak link appears to be the adapter, but you cannot quite rule out the display card.

  • Mini Display Port to VGA cable can't detect Samsung SyncMaster 2693HM.

    Just conected a Samsung SyncMaster 2693 to my Mac Mini (2.5 CPU mid 2011) with an Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA adaptor it only sees the monitor as a VGA display and is limited to 1920x1081. I was using the same adaptor with an older Mac Mini (mid 2009) and had no problems getting the full 1920x1200 resolution. I've resarted and reinserted the cables, with no joy. Any ideas?

    Looking into my problem more deeply it seems that the adaptor is a fault
    As stated by BSteely @ this thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/9447077#9447077 it seems that the 1600 x 1200 @ 85Hz is most likely beyond the capabilities of the DAC onboard the adaptor.
    Apple does make reference to this slightly in this FAQ http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3382 stating "The resolution available with the Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter is 1920 x 1200. VGA displays that use higher refresh rates (such as 85 Hz) at resolutions of 1600 x 1200 or greater may not generate video properly until you lower the refresh rate."
    Begin Rant: "May" As far as my understanding goes the chip inside this adaptor is either designed and the firmware is progamed to support 1600 x 1200 at 85 Hz or it is not. No "May" about it.
    The solution is as simple a providing a list of resolutions and refresh rates supported by the adaptor in some sort of "Technical Specifications" not simply the description provided by the overview in the apple store which makes no mention of any limitation other that the requirement of a display port.

  • Imac 27" won't detect samsung syncmaster dvi

    A couple weeks ago I bought my first mac.  iMac 27" 2.7 GHz.  Before that I had a custom built pc with a Samsung Syncmaster T260HD hooked up through DVI.
    Today I mini-display to DVI adaptor in attempt to connect my samsung and use it as an external display.  It isn't working.  Everything is connected properly and the monitor is on and set to DVI.  I go to the system pref menu and hit detect displays and nothing happens.  One thing that I have noticed it that when I switch to DVI on the monitor it goes for a sec and then basically falls asleep.  It is still on but nothing goes up.
    My computer is also fully updated and I've tried restarting it.
    Please HELP!
    Thanks

    bump.
    Just bought a new adapter and it still doesn't work.

  • Can't connect Powermac G5 to samsung syncmaster S22A300B

    Hi there,
    I bought a Powermac G5 (april,2005) and a Samsung syncmaster S22A300B screen. When i connect the mac to the screen with a VGA cable all i get is a black screen, but somehow it recognizes that it is connected. When I connect the mac to the TV everything works just fine. Any idea what i can do?
    Thanks in advane

    Thanks.
    It indeed pretty much looks like the Samsung screen is somewhat broken. Guess I have to bring it back to the store and ask for a new one.

  • External screen resolution "defaults" to low-rez (T510, docked; Samsung SyncMaster 730b monitor)

    I have a T510 Thinkpad with docking station (Windows XP) with Samsung SyncMaster 730b monitor. Every time I start up, it defaults to low resolution and I need to manually increase the screen resolution. Is there a way to make the default setting for the external monitor is high-resolution?
    Thanks!

    hey ct-user,
    it is hard to say if this is caused by the external monitor or by the docking station.
    try having the the external monitor connected to the T510 and see if it "saves" the resolution that was previously set.
    also, test the external monitor on a different laptop and see if the same issue occurs.

  • Configuring resolution on Samsung SyncMaster 932BW monitor

    I just bought a new Samsung SyncMaster 932BW monitor and can't figure out how to configure the resolution on it. It's widescreen, and supposed to be set at 1400 X 900, but the only options I have in the Displays System Preferences are 640 X 480, 800 X 600, 1024 X 768 and 1280 X 1024. None of these work, as the proportions are all stretched.
    The drivers that came with it are for PCs only, and Samsung says it doesn't suppy Mac drivers or offer tech support for Mac users. Is there a way to manually set my resolution to 1400 X 900? These are pretty nice monitors and they're selling like hot cakes on sale at Best Buy and Circuit City, so I'm sure there are tons of other Mac users who have dealt with this. Can any of you help a guy out?
    Thanks

    Hi-
    Welcome to Discussions!
    What graphics card do you use? Are you using DVi or VGA connection?
    You can make custom resolutions using SwitchResX.
    BTW, the resolution that you want is 1440x900.

  • I just bought Mac Book pro; trying to hook up dual monitor with Samsung syncmaster 2033 but no signal; I am using dvi to hdmi converter. Please assist.

    I just purchased a Macbook Pro but unable to set up dual display with samsung syncmaster 2033 via DVI to HDMI port.
    Thank you in advance for help.

    There has been quite a lot of discussion here about driving twin displays with the mini, and more recently about the potential for USB video adapters to facilitate this, particularly in the light of several vendors claiming they have suitable MacOS devices and drivers 'almost ready'.
    The DisplayLink solution seems to be the one most suggested as viable, though it's a pity they have not yet been able to move their drivers from beta - I suspect that puts a few people off. It's therefore good to hear of a real-world experience that should help others decide whether or not to go this route!

  • MacMini mid-2011/ Yosemite w Samsung Syncmaster monitor

    Hello all.
    I have been happily working with my MacMini mid-2011 (2.3Ghz Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM) with a Samsung Syncmaster B2440 HDMI-connected to it for a long time.
    Since the upgrade to Mavericks and later to Yosemite, the following problem occurs: when switching the monitor off, and later switching it back on, no video signal is sent to the monitor, which remains blank and tries to switch through all its different inputs. Unplugging the hdmi cable and plugging it back in also gives no joy. It looks like the whole video output services are switch off at OS level or something.
    The only thing I can do to get the monitor on, oddly enough, is to connect to the mac mini through a remote desktop from another device, and switching the display to my AppleTV. This action does switch also the Samsung monitor back on.
    So I then thought, great, I will create myself an apple script and a workflow associated to this AirPlay monitor switch and associate it to a keyboard shortcut, but this does not appear to work either (no, the shortcut is not in conflict with any other global shortcut).
    Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi lllass.
    When I tried that it appeared to work, but after some days it started doing it again. I am really puzzled by this.

    Hi All,
    I have my monitor (Samsung SyncMaster 213T) hooked up as an extended desktop to my T60 (directly, no docking station). I'd like to use my monitor at its full resolution of 1600X1200. (It works in this resolution fine with my desktop and my other laptop a sony Vaio). When I set the monitor to 1600X1200,  the screen is displayed compressed with black bars on either side of the monitor.I tried updating with the latest driver for the monitor but still the same results.I'm copy-pasting the information below from the Intel graphics settings tool below. Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

  • Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD doesn't want to work with new MacBook Air

    I have a (pre-unibody) MacBook Pro and a Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD. I just picked up a MacBook Air with a MiniDisplay Port to DVI adapter. The monitor works fine with my older Pro but when I connect using the adapter to my Air, the monitor doesn't work. The monitor momentarily lights up and complains that it's not receiving a signal.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello there - did you end up ever solving this one?
    I have a 13" MacBook Air (2011), using a mini display port to HDMI with a P2770HD, and I just cannot get the air to detect the display, or vice versa.

  • Samsung Syncmaster 151MP

    Hi,
    does anyone know if the apple Tv will work with a Samsung Syncmaster 151MP monitor/Tv ???
    Thanks

    It would be better if someone who actually had one of these displays could give you their experience.
    In the event that no one comes forth it is my opinion that you can use the display with the tv via component connection. I'm not actually sure how the display will handle a 720p connection from the tv, I assume it will downscale the picture to its own resolution of 1024 x 768, but at worst you may find yourself using the tv's 480p or 576p outputs (but I'd guess not)
