30 pin Female ADC adapter?

I just picked up a 2001 17 inch Stusio monitor and want to connect it to a MacBook pro. The monitor has a 30 pin connector so I need a DVI to ADC with a female connection at the end. All the convertersI found have male ends. Is there a female end?

You searched for the wrong Adapter. You need this DVI-to-ADC Adapter, that comes with a power supply - the Acrylic Displays do not have a power supply. It's not very cheap - on ebay you get these for about $100.
The other Adapter, which you mention, converts ADC to DVI to connect newer displays with DVI to older ADC graphics cards. These displays always bring their own power supply.

Cinema Display to be used with DVI to ADC Adapter

Hello everyone,
I have a 22-inch Apple Cinema Display (clear enclosure) connected to my Mac mini (Mid 2011) through Apple DVI to ADC Adapter.
So far, this configuration has allowed me to get beautiful OS X desktop displayed on my old Cinema Display, though it wasn't perfect.
Pressing the display's power button does not turn off the display nor put my Mac to sleep. Instead, holding the button just makes the power LED brighter than usual.
Two USB ports on the back of the display doesn't seem to work. It does charge my iPod, but any device connected to those ports (including iPod) won't be recognized on my Mac.
Can anybody see what's going on here and help me troubleshoot the issue?
Thanks.

Pressing the display's power button does not turn off the display nor put my Mac to sleep. Instead, holding the button just makes the power LED brighter than usual.
That's normal with the DVI to ADC adapter. ADC (Apple Display Connector) has pins for power control but there are no such pins in DVI so the display's power button has no way to control the computer. I don't know why the power light brightens when pushed, but mine does it too.
Two USB ports on the back of the display doesn't seem to work. It does charge my iPod, but any device connected to those ports (including iPod) won't be recognized on my Mac.
Is the adapter's USB cable plugged into the computer? The displays ports are USB 1.1. Some devices, such as iPhones, require USB 2.0.
Failure of the USB circuitry is common with those displays. My 22" ADC display started having USB problems years ago. It started with intermittent USB port problems, then it started interfering with computer sleep. Since I now use the display with a DVI to ADC adapter I don't connect the adapter's USB cable (and don't use the display's USB ports), so don't have any computer sleep problems.

DVI to ADC Adapter for GeForce 6800 video card?

Do I need DVI to ADC Adapter for Nvidia GeForce 6800 which I just installed on my G5 to be able to run ADC 23" Cinema off the GeForce 6800 card?
I want to run a new 30" Cinema and old ADC 23" Cinema from GeForce 6800. I ran the old 23" from the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro
Thanks,
Milan

Hi Milan,
If the Geforce 6800 does not have an ADC output, then yes, you do.
You need to check to see whether or not that the card has DVI-I output, as some of the DVI to ADC adaptors use a DVI-I plug which will not fit into a DVI-D output due to the extra pins in the plug.
Cheers!

DVI to ADC Adapter + Mini DVI to DVI Adapter = usb ports don't work?

I have a 23" Cinema with the ADC plug. I've been using it with the DVI to ADC adapter for many years, though I did not use any of the monitor's usb ports during this time. I recently bought a new Macbook, so now I have am combining a Mini DVI to DVI adapter with the DVI to ADC adapter. The display works fine, but now I find the usb ports on the monitor do not work. I've checked all the pins involved and they are all straight and look normal.
Does this have anything to do with the double adapter situation, or could it just be that the monitor's usb ports are aging and haven't been used in a long time? Or is it possible these ports do not support usb 2.0 devices?

Thank you Malcolm.
It's true I cannot adjust the display's brightness using the buttons on the monitor. But I can put the Macbook to sleep, both when the adapter's usb cable is plugged in and when it's not.
So if the usb circuitry has gone bad, will this cause me any other problems, or can I just ignore it? Right now I am trying to choose an external hard drive to buy, so I'm taking stock of my available ports. I don't think I'd put a big hard drive on a usb 1.1 port anyways.

Looking for 30-pin female to lightning male extender

I purchased an iHome clock radio with 30-pin dock back when I had an iPhone 4. Since upgrading to the iPhone 5 and then the iPhone 6+, I've been unable to use the dock. I'd like to find a 30-pin female to lightning male adapter, but I'd like one that has a lightning extender in place of a standard lightning male connector. I have a Spigen Neo Hybrid case on my iPhone 6+ and I'm afraid that a standard lightning adapter will not work without first removing the Spigen case, something I'd prefer to avoid. I know that there are 30-pin female to lightning male cables, but I was hoping to find an adapter/extender. Does such a thing exist? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Chris! After reading a little further, I'm now leaning toward a cable since others have said that a dock extender can sometimes place stress on the lightning port. Since my iPhone can be placed on the table next to my clock radio when using a cable, this is probably the best solution. I have been using a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable between the clock radio and my iPhone for audio and the usual lightning power cord for charging, but I thought I might eliminate one cable by getting a dock extender cable. I appreciate your help.

Are there any 30 pin female to lightning adapters that support video and audio together?

I have a wowwee cinemin slice projector and I wondering if there are any products that will convert the 30 pin to lightning that supports audio and video, since the Wowwee Cinemin Slice plays video through the iPhone, but currently only has the 30 pin adapter? Thanks so much.

yeah, and I can't believe that you can't buy sushi for breakfast, but there it is. Chris CA is right. Lightning will NOT support analog video out. It will do audio, though. So...your best bet would be to buy a Lightning digital AV adapter (2nd generation) then try to find an HDMI to 30 pin cable. I'm presuming that the wowee has a 30 pin socket on it... I see.... it also has a VGA and a mini-HDMI port on it, so you'll have to use the last two, perhaps, unless you can find cable that goes from HDMI to 30 pin male end, then 30 pin female to female, to finally connect with the wowee. I have yet to see a 30 pin female to female adapter, and I suspect there will never be one. I can't believe many things, either, scoody. Apple is not known for going backwards, once it has introduced a new standard. It may try to acommodate some people, but it will never be able to please everyone. In any event, I think it was mentioned by Apple that, in moving to Lightning, some 30 pin stuff might not work, and the wowee cinemin slice is probably one of those things...
welp--there you go

I have a Cenema Monitor, with a 30 1 plug. I need to plug it into my power mac g4, with a 24 1 pin female. Is this possible?

DVI to ADC adapter doesn't work

Greetings folks,
I have an Apple DVI to ADC adapter going to a Formac 17" ADC display or alternatively an Apple 17" LCD ADC display. The displays do not function with either my MacBook Pro or my MacBook. I can't figure out which the Macs are having a problem with, the displays or the adapter. It all works fine with my PowerBook G4 and both of my PowerMac G4's. Also, regular DVI and VGA displays work fine with the MacBook Pro and the MacBook.
I have talked with tech support and they have not been able to find a solution. I will bring the adapter to my Apple store to see if they can determine the problem.

Okay, here's an update: the DVI to ADC adapter does work with the Apple displays that I have tried, but it won't work with the Formac. I have tried multiple time to contact them, but to no avail... they don't even respond to threats of posting my opinion of them, which is this:
DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM FORMAC! They make quality products, but their customer service is a big time joke! They won't take care of you.

DVI to ADC Adapter question

I've got a Quicksilver 933 (2002) and want to get the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro PC & Mac Video Card. I have a 17" Apple Cinema Display and want to add the new 20" Apple Display for an extended desktop. The ATI card has 2 DVI outs. I will need a DVI to ADC adapter. My question is, the adapters (see below) say they are good for connecting to DVI-D out and the 9600 card is DVI-I. Does this make a difference? Does anyone out there have experience running a set-up like this? I would hate to spend $200. on this card and $80. on the adapter only to find out I couldn't use the 17" Display.
My other choice is the 64MB ATI 9000 Pro Mac edition. (This has both a DVI out and an ADC out so I would save ~$200.) I will not be doing any gameing, just extended desktop work with Photoshop, Flash and Dreamweaver. Would there be any noticeable difference between the 9000 and 9600 in these activities? As always, thanks for your input.

Hi Justin,
Can I further the questioning instead of starting my
own new thread?
No, worries, Mate!
I am in a similar situation.
I have a 2003 Quicksilver 933 with dual display
currently running.
(Using a 17" Apple Display & a 17" Sony CRT).
I eventually wish to either upgrade to a 20+ cinema
display and use the 17" Apple display as my extended
desktop, but that may still be down the road a bit.
Until then, Im looking to ditch the CRT for a 15 (or
so) LCD to dave on desktop space and make an attempt
to match the 17'' Apple Display.
Ok, on to the question.
I purchased a ATI Raedon 9800Pro Mac Edition and then
noticed it only have two DVI connections. This won't
be a problem for the eventual LCD upgrade (which has
DVI connection), but I need to purchase a DVI to ADC
convertor for the 17" Apple display.
The Radeon 9800 has DVI and VGA and S-Video output, I believe. If you want to run 2 LCD monitors, one of them will have to have a VGA input (which you can't get on Apple monitors).
1) Can I expect any loss in quality/performace due to
the conversion between DVI and ADC?
No, if the adaptor funcftions properly, there is no loss from DVI to ADC.
2) I believe there are mulitple brands out there
doing this conversion. (Apple, Geffen, etc..) Any
brand looking to be more preferred over the other?
The Geffen adaptor is presently the only one which will support the 17" ADC CRT studio monitor (as well as the ADC LCD monitors).
3) With the convertor will I still be able to power
my mac on and off with the use of the display power
button?
You can power the Mac on, however, some adaptors don't allow you to power it off.
Thanks for any help.
Justin
Cheers!

Does anyone know how to connect an older 20" cinema display with the (ADC) adapter end and connect it to a MacBook Pro 17" 2008 model (DVI) ?????

I believe you naeed the Apple ADC to DVI adapter.

Nothing simpler, smaller, less expensive than Apple's DVI to ADC adapter?

My 2001 vintage 466 MHz PowerMac G4 with 15" Studio Display has served me well over the years. But, alas, she's running Panther (10.3.9) and lacks the requirements to move on to Leopard, which I'm ready to do. So, I decided to upgrade the machine. Since the other parts of the system (monitor, keyboard, mouse & printer) were just fine, I decided that a new Mac Mini would fit the bill nicely. (I'm also a Scotsman, always looking for ways to save money. Perhaps that's part of the problem. )
I received it yesterday and wasn't expecting the ADC-monitor to DVI-computer dilemma. (Which shows you just how out of touch I am with technology's incessant march forward.) So, I investigate solutions.
Imagine my surprise when I discover that the only solution out there is by Apple, in the form of a brick almost as big as my Mini! And, another $100 to boot! I did find a third party solution through a link on Apple's website, but that's $150! (Thanks for the referral, Apple!) My mind is boggled - there must be other available solutions but, if there are, they are evading me.
Does anyone know of any solution that is simpler, smaller and less expensive than Apple's DVI to ADC adapter?
Thanks for any and all info.

The Apple adapter is the only solution if you really want to keep that display. It might be a good time to look for a larger display, with DVI.
I am using the Apple adapter with my seven year old 22" display, but I wouldn't want to run OS X on anything smaller.

VGA to ADC adapter?

I have an older 20" Apple Studio Display that uses an ADC input, which I can use with my Powermac G5. I would also like to use the display with a PC laptop that only outputs VGA. Is there an adapter that will let me run the ADC monitor from a VGA source? I used to run this monitor from a mac mini using the Apple DVI-to-ADC adapter, but cannot find a similar device for ADC.
Alternatively, I see there are VGA-to-DVI adapters, can I chain adapters to go VGA-to-DVI-to ADC.
Ian

You need a VGA to DVI converter, but they cost several hundred dollars. It may be cheaper to find a VGA display.

I just bought a recertified Mac Mini, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.

I just bought a recertified Mac Mini core duo - it's not the newer model-, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it and using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.
The company I bought it from is not Apple, and I may regret that. It was in my price range, though.
This is the first time I've used this community, and I've been a Mac owner since 2000. Thanks in advance!

Mac Mini and DVI to ADC adapter

I have an old Apple Cinema Display with an ADC port. I have the DVI to ADC adapter, which I have been using to connect to an old Power Mac which is on its last legs. I want to replace the Power Mac with a mac mini and connect it to the display from the HDMI-DVI cable (included) to the DVI-ADC adapter, and then connect on to the Display. The Apple sales representative (after laughing for a while, which I thought was fairly insensitive) said that I won't have audio with this setup, and I will have to get a whole new display. Is this true?
