30" Cinema Display Vsync and Hsync

What are the hsync and vsync values for the 30" display? I'm using it with my linux computer as well, and I'm not sure what to tell it.

Here is a text dump from the EDID contained on a Cinema 30's ROM. The first timing is suitable for single-link DVI and results in a low resolution. The second timing is the Cinema's full resolution but it only works for dual-link DVI enabled graphics cards.

  • Macbook Air - using Cinema Display usb and firewire?

    Hello,
    This is the first post for me, however the answer will determine whether I make the jump for an air.
    Will the usb hub on the cinema displays work with the macbook air dvi output connector. (essential for me to purchase) would firewire work (bonus if it does)
    Unfortunately I have to have ethernet connection because of the setup in my office, and some of the software I use has usb hardware dongles. The ethernet adapter is fine but I also need usb.
    When I am on the go the single usb will suffice.
    Any advice would be really appreciated.

    USB hub works fine on my 23 Cinema display with the Air, haven't tried the others but I use the USB on display to plug in my mobile broadband ( live out in the sticks and don't get cable or DSL ) and it lets me switch between my Air and MB Pro fine.

  • 23" cinema Display flickers and goes to black

    Hey all,
    I am running two 23" cinema displays and one of them is flickering and going to black. Here is a video of it.
    http://larskoerkemeier.com/MVI_0972.MOV
    The curved bands arent there thats just from the filming but what happens is the entire image shifts up very quickly and what you see flash on the bottom is actually the top. It repeats this a couple times and then turns off and then it repeats and after a couple times the display just stays off.
    System:
    Model Name: Mac Pro
    Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon
    Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
    Memory: 6 GB
    Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT
    Thanks,
    -Lars

    Hi-
    Try switching the power adapters to see if the problem moves to the other display.
    Of course, reconnecting/double checking all connections is a good idea.
    Other than that, any references in Console/Logs regarding graphics driver errors?

  • Cinema Display 30" and MBP - No Picture

    I have a 2.16 Core Duo Macbook Pro 17". Today I purchased a 30" Cinema Display at the Apple store.
    Because of issues I had heard about I had the Apple employees help me open the box and plug in the monitor to a Macbook Pro on the floor to check for dead and hot pixels and other screen problems. None found. I was so psyched!
    I get it home and set it up. I run the DVI cable over to my Macbook Pro and nothing... The MBP screen goes blue and then refreshes when the monitor is attached or detached like it detects it, but under system profiler it never registers an additional display (and I did refresh the info). The soft power button on the Cinema Display triggers my computer to give me the shut down/sleep dialog so something is registering.
    Basically everything works on the display but the picture. I just get a black screen. I hooked up my wife's G4 1.67 and it drives the screen just fine with a picture.
    Any thoughts?

    I have owned a MacBook Pro (15" / 2.16GHz / 2GB) and 30" Cinema HD Display since September 2006.
    The display's DVI, USB, and FireWire cables are all connected to the MacBook Pro. A keyboard (with mouse) and iPod dock are connected to the display's USB ports, and two LaCie D2 drives are connected to the display's FireWire ports.
    The display has remained blank at start-up on two occasions, both since upgrading to Mac OS X 10.5, though that may be coincidental. In any event, unplugging the display's USB cable from the MacBook Pro had the effect of waking the display; plugging the display's USB cable back into the MacBook Pro put the display to sleep.
    Try disconnecting the USB and FireWire cables from the MacBook Pro and unplugging any peripherals attached to the display. I found that everything worked fine when reconnected.

  • 24" Cinema Display flickering and eventually going dark

    I am having a repeat of a problem with my Apple 24" Cinema Display. The symptoms are the display will go black and come back on (flicker) and sometimes it takes a few seconds for it to come back. All USB devices connected to the Cinema Display become disconnected from my MacBook Pro when this happens.
    Last time this happened it started slowly and as time passed it happened more frequently. When I brought it into the store they were able to reproduce the problem immediately. They replaced the logic board in the monitor.
    I contacted support again. The display is still under warrantee. They scheduled an appointment for me to bring the display in. I am seeing the same behavior where the frequency of this problem increases as time passes.
    I am concerned they will be unable to quickly reproduce the problem again and not fix it, or fix it and the problem will come back again in a few months. I am afraid that I will still be having this problem after the warrantee expires.
    I've purchased many displays over the years (including Apple) and this is the first time I have ever had a problem. I think I may have had a lemon.
    I originally posted in these now archived threads:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12175983#12175983
    and
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12311032#12311032

    Just a quick update. I brought the display into my local Apple store. After they reviewed the records from the previous repair and my description of the problem they believe it could be a power supply problem inside the monitor. The power supply may have caused the logic board to go bad. Replacing the logic board last time fixed the problem but the bad power supply ended up causing the problem to return.
    I let them know that I was concerned that this is a reoccurring problem and my warrantee expires in July. I don't want to see this problem come back after the warrantee expires.
    I'm not sure what they will do if that happens. I hope this problem gets fixed this time around.

  • 27" LED Cinema Display – noise and buzz

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a second hand 27" Apple LED Cinema Display, and I now started to have some issues.
    The first issue started today, it is some kind of buzz that comes out of the right speaker whenever I lower the brightness of the screen. I have about the opposite happening for other people – whenever the brightness would be above 3/4, a buzz sound would come up. For me it's when the brightness is below 1/4. The lower the brightness, so higher the pitch of the buzz. How weird is that?
    The second issue is that, whenever a sound is played, some kind of white noise starts coming from I believe both speakers of the display. Even if I just adjust the volume on the keyboard (which makes a sound as well), this white noise would come up. It would last around 15-30 seconds, and then it would disappear. If headphones are connected to the Mac Pro, it doesn't happen (and it can't be heard in the headphones either). I once hooked up the Mac Pro to a Panasonic TV to test, and there was no buzz coming from the TV either.
    Now I just noticed that the white noise is constantly here since the buzz appeared today (when I lower the brightness). Something is failing here I believe. It could also be the graphics card I guess?
    Sometimes I get a very quick weird flash on the screen (black & white stripes I believe) for half a second, then they're gone. It's quite rare so it's hard to troubleshoot. Maybe it has to do with the Cinema Display as well. Or perhaps it is my graphics card (It's a Sapphire HD 7950 3 GB – the Cinema Display is connected with Mini DisplayPort). Or it might just be bad drivers for this card – they were never that good apparently.
    Perhaps someone knows more than I do
    All helps is appreciated…
    Cheers!

  • 27 LED Cinema Display Audio and Brightness when powering MacBook Pro

    When my 27 LED Cinema Display is powering my (or another) 2009 13" MacBook Pro, I have experienced three issues:
    1. The dropped audio problem other users have mentioned. Shutdown, then disconnect power/usb/displayport, then wait ~15s, then reconnect and reboot temporarily fixes the problem.
    2. I also have the sluggish keyboard behavior when adjusting the volume that others have mentioned.
    3. I have experienced shifts in display brightness which are obvious when the display is dimmed. I have disabled the ambient light sensor as well as any interfering power management or energy saver settings. Opening apps, scrolling and other normal activities seem to aggravate this behavior.
    This last strange behavior inspired me to try using a power adapter for the MacBook Pro instead of display's laptop power connector. *Doing so seems to have resolved all three issues.*
    It seems that this may indicate an underlying problem with the display's power supply. Can anyone confirm?

    I am having the same issues & with a 1 day old display. I am using a 15" MBP. The screen is killing me when it dims down when no lights are on.

I'd like to utilize the ambient light sensor but not if its going to make my screen flicker when it is dim....
    (1) I have never had any deaths associated with my screen, but on rare occasions my display's brightness will flicker when I manually adjust the brightness. The fix I have found for this is to increase the brightness one more setting or decrease it one more setting. Changing the screen from full dim to full bright and then setting the brightness I want sometimes helps, too.

  • MBPro w/Mini DisplayPort to Cinema Display w/only USB and Firewire ports?

    I've searched the threads for something that will explain what kind of cable I need to use my Cinema Display with my MacBook Pro, and I'm not finding anything. The MacBook Pro has the Mini DisplayPort for video out, and the Cinema Display's only ports are two USB and two FireWire.
    All of the video cables I've seen in the online Apple store are either Mini DisplayPort to DVI or Mini DisplayPort to VGA, neither of which would work. Tech support told me that the computer and the display are compatible -- can anyone tell me which cable I need?

    I have been using the display for several years, connected to my G4 PPC Mac Pro. Now that I have a new MacBook Pro, I was thinking of getting rid of the tower and simply using the laptop.
    The cord coming out of the back of the display is connected to the tower with both the DVI plug and two USB plugs. It didn't occur to me to look on that cord because my understanding was that there was a port on the display itself, and I always think of that cord as simply a power cord.
    I understand getting a DVI-to-Mini DisplayPort converter cable, but the Cinema Display is apparently powered by the Mac Pro tower. Would a laptop be able to power the Cinema Display? And would I have to connect both USB plugs to the laptop? That would take up both of the MacBook Pro's USB ports.

  • PowerBooks and Cinema Displays

    I should know the answer to this but...Can the PB be used with the Cinema display only and with the lid closed?

    I thought about that but the truth is the PB actually stays cooler with the lid shut. I've been watching it closely. It's kind of like the question about whether or not your refridgerator light goes off when you shut the door. When the lid gets closed the processor goes to sleep. Clicking the mouse wakes up the Cinema display and my obvious assumption is that the PB display is off while the lid is closed. This seems to cut down on the heat build up. I also use a Targus Podium Coolpad to elevate the back end of the PB and it stays very cool.
    The only glitch I've had with the lid closed is that my Airport connection also shuts off. So I use my Airport Express to convert back to hardwire and re-connect to my Ethernet port. That way I can stay connected and I also reduce heat build up by not running the Airport card inside the PB.
    Having said all that I also agree using both monitors is very handy.
    Thanks for the feedback.

  • Mid-2012 MBP with 27" Cinema Display SCREEN GOES BLACK WHEN USING USB PERIPHERALS IN DOCK

    I haven't been able to find any straightforward answer as to why this is happening and it's becoming one of the most infuriating things in my life, impeding my workflow and costing me unmeasurable time in waiting, rebooting, screwing with cables, etc.
    I use my MBP as a DAW for multitracking live audio events to ProTools through a digital console where I work. Here's my gear list that I use every day:
    Mid-2012 MBP - Yosemite, 8GB, i7 quad 2.5, mechanical hd
    HengeDocks dock for my exact model machine - has set-screw jacks for CinemaDisplay power, Tbolt, FW800, USB, USB, SDcard, headphones, etc
    USB wired keyboard
    Anker 1x4 USB3.0 hub - I have a TimeMachine 1TB drive, 3TB project backup drive, audio interface and MIDI I/O or PT iLok, depending what I'm working on
    Magic Mouse (BlueTooth)
    Here's what's happening:
    SCENARIO 1 - I insert the CinemaDisplay (cD) power connector and TBolt plugs into the dock, tighten the set screws, close the lid of my MBP (already logged into Yosemite & linked with MagicMouse [mM]) and stick the MBP into the dock... everything comes up on the cD and I can go about my day. At this point, I can plug the USB hub into the back of the cD and the system sees the hub & all peripherals listed just fine.
    SCENARIO 2 - Install cD powercon, TBolt connector, USB3 hub, USB keyboard into the dock, close the lid on MBP (again, logged in), insert into dock... cD comes up, looks great for about 15 seconds then goes completely blank. No response from key presses, mouse clicks, threats with a hammer, etc. Then, of course, I have to yank the MBP out of the dock, which hard-disconnects the external drives (backup and TimeMachine... good for them, right?) and causes the MBP to flake, thinking it's still in the dock, then not, then logging me out & requiring a password (not a big deal- I deal with copyrighted stuff, so passwords aren't the issue).
    ***EVEN IF I DO NOT PLUG THE USB3 HUB INTO THE HENGE DOCK, THE cD STILL GOES BLANK AFTER 15 SEC... IT ONLY SEEMS TO LIKE THE TBOLT AND POWER... NO OTHER PERIPHERALS (fw800, USB, etc)***
    It seems like the MBP freaks out when the lid is closed and there are USB/FW peripherals plugged in while using a secondary TBolt display as the main output... seems stupid... if I need a closed-lid dock, the MBP shouldn't care what I have plugged in while the lid is closed. I had the same issues with Mountain Lion & Mavericks and now it's being repeated with Yosemite.
    My goal in this exercise is simply to free up the USB jacks on the back of the cD for two reasons - #1) from time to time, I have extra things to plug in and I don't want some massive USB 1x8 hub on my desk... looks stupid; #2) the bottleneck created by plugging in the hub to the back of the cD (another hub via TBolt) almost triples the time required to back up/copy files. I move files from system drive to backup drive & back VERY often due to the nature of my job... speeding up this process would greatly improve my efficiency in the matter. Why would Henge create a dock with all the jacks on it to allow someone to plug into a cD that won't frickin work with said cD? Every other dock I've found makes the user stick the MBP on a slanted, goofy-looking stand and have the lid open or something dumb like that... what I have is the setup I need... just need the USB stuff to work while lid is closed and everything from powercon & cD to USB3 hubs will work without making the cD freak out.
    Any ideas out there?

    Have now taken the 27" display into the repair shop and after 24 hrs got the phone call - "appears to be nothing wrong with it, will check again on Tuesday and let you know".
    I can't seem to find anything on the net describing a similar problem. Everything is working fine right now with the Mac Pro connected to the older 20 inch Cinema Display. In fact, everything seems to be working about a second faster.
    I was told by the local retailer that Apple no longer makes the 27 inch LED Cinema Display product and the new display, the "Thunderbolt" will not work with my 13 month old Mac Pro.
    ***??? In 20 years of owning Mac equipment, this is my first major "uh-oh".

  • Cinema display VS Thunderbolt display

    Hi!
    I'm about to start a bidding on an Apple Cinema display 24" bought in july 2010. Now, besides general opinions about this display, are there any fundamental differences between the Cinema display (CD) and the newer Thunderbolt display (TD)?
    What I already know is that the TD has 3xUSB, 1xFireWire, 1xThunderbolt and 1xEthernet on the back where the CD only have 3xUSB. Also, the TD only need the thunderbolt cable to the (i e) MacBook to function where the CD need to have the USB cable in addition to the cinema display cable connected to function.
    Have I got that right?
    I have the newest MacBook Pro with thunderbolt output, but do I still need the USB cable to get the 3xUSB hub on the display? Or is it enough with the cinema display cable from the display?
    Hope I didn't make it to complicated to read =)
    The price right now is almost 500$.
    Oh, that's right - one more thing! I've read a little about compatiblity with different displays and computers. My MacBok Pro has thunderbolt output, but is it still possible to connect the Cinema display that does NOT support thunderbolt?

    I googled my question and found this article:
    http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20043524-263.html
    I quote the article:
    "The new port is backward compatible so it can still be used to connect to DisplayPort devices; however, only the new port can be used to connect to Thunderbolt devices.
    This means that while you can physically connect a Thunderbolt device to a Mac with DisplayPort, the device will not work, but if you connect a DisplayPort device to a Mac with Thunderbolt, then the device will work."
    Helpful picture:
    http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/tim/2011/03/15/ThunderboltChart_270x130.png
    So if you believe in this, I actually can use the Cinema display with my MacBook with thunderbolt port. Or am I getting this all backwards?

  • How to drive a 30" Cinema Display from a new 27" iMac?

    How do I drive a 30" Cinema Display from a new 27" iMac that has no obvious video out port? There are lots of ports, but nothing resembling or identified as a video out port. Is the very small hole in the cabinet by the power in port the thing I'm looking for? If so, the power/video adapter for the Cinema will not work as is. Do I need a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter? I am completely uncertain about this, and could use solid advice. The AppleCare tech I spoke with today seemed not to have a clue. He said he would get back with me on this. He didn't.

    Overview
    Every Mac with a Mini DisplayPort allows you to connect an external display or projector using an adapter. You can use an external display as your main workspace or to extend your desktop, or you can work in mirrored mode with a projector so you can view what your audience sees.
    Use the Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter to connect your Mac to a 30-inch display that includes a DVI connector, such as the 30-inch Apple Cinema Display HD, and enjoy the ultimate widescreen canvas with a resolution of 2560 by 1600 pixels.
    Compatible only with Mac computers with Mini DisplayPort and Mac OS X v10.5.6 or later.

  • Cinema DIsplay sleeps when I use Boot Camp with Radeon 5870 through DVI connection

    I just created a bootcamp partition on my Mac Pro (1,1) with Radeon 5870 and XP Professional so I can play Train Simulator 2012 with maxed out settings. Well after hours of installing Windows XP and updating it (via Parallels so I could do other things while waiitng for Windows) I got Train Simulator 2012 installed, Windows XP Professional fully upto date and reboot to bootcamp. I see the Windows screen and then my monitor goes to sleep (best guess). I am using an Apple Cinema Display 20" and is of course connected to the DVI port. One guess (and I hope I am totally wrong about this) is I think I remember reading the DVI port id display 3 not 1. I hope this isn't the problem (requiring me to buy a $40 Mini Display port for DVI adapter.
    Any ideas as to why this is happening? I was so looking forward to playing Train Simulator with maxed out graphics via Boot Camp with the Radeon 5870 1GB. Don't get me started as to why my line out is not being detected by XP Pro.
    I also have the latest Bootcamp drivers for XP (3.2).

    Never used XP and on Mac Pro I wanted to use all 4-cores and more than 1.9GB RAM but often it seems that in the past and with Fusion anyway you would need to install Windows updates and drivers natively not thru or in the VM.

  • Need power schematics for a 20" cinema display a1038 (four pronged cord)

    need power schematics for a 20" cinema display a1038
    missing the power adapter for the cinema display,need to know what the leads are for the power cord.
    There is a Edison power cord that plugs into a little square box, then a 4 pronged cord plugs into that box.
    I have a 24 volt power supply with the same amps, and want to hook it up to the 4 pronged plug since I don't have the little power supply box. I don't know what each lead is.
    The easy answer is to buy the power supply. I bought the cinema display cheap and want to see if its worth buying the little box power supply that costs around 70$ on e-bay. If it works with the 24 volt power supply Ill go ahead and buy the little box.

    Hi
    If the monitor is a clear acrylic model with three feet (which it seems to be), and your computer is an original AGP Graphics/Sawtooth model, you'll need a DVI to ADC adapter.
    You can identify your exact computer model from the following link:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58418
    The ADC connector, which the older 20" Cinema Display uses, wasn't introduced until the later Gigabit Ethernet models. Unfortunately a newer graphics card with an ADC port won't work either, as the Sawtooth lacks an extra connector on the logic board required to power the monitor through the ADC cable.
    DVI to ADC adapters are fairly expensive as they include an integral power supply to drive the monitor. It may also be worth checking your graphics card supports the resolution of the 20" display (1680 by 1050). In the worst case you may need a new graphics card (with a DVI port) and the adapter.

  • Fuzzy on Cinema Display- PLEASE HELP :-)

    Hi,
    I recently made a presentation in FCP, the project set for playback at DVNTSC. The project was burned using iDVD and intended to be watched on TV. Now, I want to watch the DVD presentation on my 30 inch Apple Cinema display. When I play it back, it is very fuzzy. Since the project was set originally at 720x480, I cannot expect it to look good on the monitor, right? What changes would I have to make to my FCP project in order to to make a new DVD look good on the Cinema display? And what about the rectangular vs square pixels issue? I can't remember if monitors have the rectangular pixels... Thanks.
    p.s. there is no video in this project--everything created from stills/ effects from Motion.

    You've got the concepts correct. Your image is being expanded to fill the display by a factor of at least twice, to more than 1500 pixels, maybe 2000. That doesn't mean you get more pixels out f the video, it just means the video pixels are getting bigger to fill more monitor pixels.
    If you step back from the 30" four times as far as you are from your 17" TV set, the image will look pretty good.
    The rectangular/square pixel thing? I pretend that problem doesn't exist.
