Apple Cinema Displays & 2007 MacBooks

hello. which apple cinema displays are compatible with older (2007) white macbooks, in terms of connectivity, adapters, etc...?

Any Apple LCD will work except for the 24" LED or 30". You will need a Mini-DVI to DVI adapter.

The 20" is the only one currently sold at the Apple online store, but some stores may still have some 23" models in stock. 15", 17", and 22" models may be available used. If they use ADC, you will also need a DVI to ADC adapter

  • 23" Apple Cinema Display & 15" MacBook Pro?

    1) Any ideas on how to crank up the res on a MacBook Pro for external mirroring?
    A manager at my company ordered a 15" MacBook Pro & a 23" Apple Cinema Display for the purpose of Mirroring.
    When spanning, the laptop and the display look great (and both run in their native modes of 1920 x 1200 and 1440 by 900, respectively), but when mirroring is enabled, the MacBook video card acts like it can't power the 23" LCD properly. It wants to default both the 15" built-in display and the Cinema display at 1440 by 900 - which is unacceptable.
    2) Is it possible to close a MacBook Pro's lid and continue to power the external monitor without the MacBook sleeping?
    3) Is it possible to toggle the MacBook Pro's video signal to turn OFF the built-in laptop display and ONLY run on the external display? I remember older PowerBooks being able to do this. Many PC laptops will allow you to disable the local video and only send a signal to the external display (for presentations etc).

    1) Any ideas on how to crank up the res on a MacBook Pro for external mirroring?
    Mirroring is pixel to pixel. The MacBook only has 1440 by 900, so that's all it can show on the external display when mirroring.
    2) Is it possible to close a MacBook Pro's lid and continue to power the external monitor without the MacBook sleeping?
    Attach the power adapter and an external keyboard and mouse (bluetooth is OK if it's set to wake the computer). When you close the lid, the computer will sleep, but will wake (and continue to run with the lid closed) when you use the external mouse or keyboard.
    3) Is it possible to toggle the MacBook Pro's video signal to turn OFF the built-in laptop display and ONLY run on the external display?
    Not with the lid open, but if not mirrored, you can move the menu bar to the external display by following the instructions in the "Arrangement" tab of "Displays" system preference.

  • I have a 25" Apple Cinema Display and Macbook Pro. Want to use iSight camera on ACD.

    When I use Skype or Google+ Hangout, I'm not able to use the built-in camera on the ACD. Is there a preference to switch camera from Macbook Pro to ACD?

    I don't know about Google+ but in Skype's Preferences, there's an Audio/Video tab and within that window there's a popup menu for the camera.  Does that allow you to select the ACD?

    im running OSX 10.7.4

    Hi There,
    I have had the exact same issue but with a projector.
    The issue lies with Mountian Lion 10.8.2.
    I tried many a combination with no luck to get HDMI working.
    Took my mac into the apple store and came to the conclusion it was the software, so I asked them to install 10.8 onto it (this is destructive so a backup is a must)
    Bought my macbook home and voila, now displaying through my projector.
    There is a small graphics update after 10.8.1 which seems to be the cause.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Macbook Air + 30" Apple Cinema Display + Powered USB hub

    I just received my dual link DVI to mini display port adapter in the mail today, and so far it's working just fine connecting my newer generation Macbook Air to the older 30" Apple Cinema display (the Air is closed, with an Apple wireless mouse/keyboard connected via Bluetooth).
    I'm wondering if anyone has any success connecting a powered USB hub to either the adapter itself or the 30" display in order to gain some USB functionality out of the Air? I have a powered 4 port D-Link hub which worked fine directly into the Air, but I can't seem to power any devices when it's hooked up to the 30" display or directly into the adapter. I can't even get devices (external powered hard drives, Mbox) to work when plugged into the screen directly (no hub).
    I called AppleCare about the problem and they said they don't support USB hubs via the 30" Apple Cinema Display when connected to the Macbook Air, but if anyone has any experience with this situation or if someone could offer me advice to get USB functionality out of my MBA + 30" ACD, it would be greatly appreciated!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately not.

  • How can I run a 27" Apple Cinema Display and another monitor from my MacBook Pro?

    Hi everyone,
    I recently purchased a brand new 15"  MacBook Pro to replace my old one. I was told when ordering it that I would be able to hook up two external monitors to it using the Matrox DualHead2Go hardware. So, I also bought a 27" Cinema Display (non-Thunderbolt since it wouldn't work with the DH2Go). However, when I contacted Matrox they said their products don't support screens as large as the 27" ACD.
    Bummer!
    So, my question is: does anyone know how I can hookup a 27" Apple Cinema Display at 2560x1440 and a Acer 22" monitor at 1685x1050 (or, anything less really) to my new MacBook Pro?
    I've looked around and haven't been able to find a good answer.
    Thanks for your help!

    Will something like this work? A USB to VGA adapter? Can I use this at the same time that I have a Cinema Display plugged into the Mini-DVI port and will they both work at the same time? Anyone know?

  • Using the Macbook with new LED Apple Cinema Display? Not a beginner's Q...

    Hi - I'm sort of cross-posting this because I'm not getting any answers in the Apple Cinema Display Forum, so here goes. So far, no one - not even a tech guy at a local Apple Reseller - has been able to help, so I've got my fingers crossed.
    I just got a 24" Apple LED Cinema Display and am using it with my 13" Aluminum Unibody Macbook. What I do is dock the Macbook (with closed screen) when at home with the big display and just use that. I enlarge program windows and arrange the layout (in different spaces) to take advantage of the large screen and resolution. So far so good.
    But I'm a student and take my macbook with me to class. When I open it up, all the program windows are set as they were on the larger screen, which means some are out of view or simply not well-adjusted for the smaller and lower resolution of the Macbook. I manually adjust these and work on the Macbook that way.
    But when I return home in the evening, I have to adjust them again once I 'dock' the Macbook. Kind of a pain if I'm doing this twice a day.
    What I'd like to know is: is there a setting or group of settings that would do this automatically for me? A program? An AppleScript? Surely someone out there has had the same issues and has found a fix, if such a thing exists. Or is it just a fact of nature one deals with when working on two screens?
    To preclude one response: yes, I know I can mirror the displays when I open the Macbook along with the LED Cinema Display. But this simply mirrors them using the lower resolution and dimensions of the Macbook screen. And that kind of negates having the larger, Cinema Display.
    So - any thoughts? Solutions? How do you guys manage with this?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I don't really have a solution for you but wanted to link you to a discussion on this very topic that took place last month on MacInTouch.
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/helpplease/topic3939.html#d24sep2009
    The conclusion seemed to be that it is not an OS issue, it's an application issue. There really was no good answer but some good insight into why the problem exists and why it may not be something Apple can fix.

  • 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.

  • Is the Macbook Air 2011 able to run the Apple Cinema Display 30" ?

    Hello Everyone.
    So, I am about to buy a Macbook Air 2011 11".
    I want this product because of the ssd driver and the versality of such a light object.
    The things is that i work at school with a laptop, and when i come back home, i use my Apple Cinema Display on my Macbook Pro with the Dual Link dvi Adaptator (which cost me 98€ ouch !! ).
    So i read that there were kind of retro-compatibility between Thunderbolt and Mini-Display Port on the new Mba.
    Is the 2011 mba able to run my external display ?
    Thank  you.
    Nicolas.

    Yes.

    it will transmit video and audio or only video?
    thank you

    If the USB cable is connected to the computer, you can use the display as an USB hub; FireWire works the same way, but you need a FireWire 400 to 800 adapter or a FireWire ExpressCard to use it.

  • MacBook Pro Apple Cinema Display issues

    I’m using Photoshop CS6 through a MacBook Pro connected to an Apple Cinema Display. Files on display don’t always appear (work area is just blank, interface still there) and when I go to save, the save dialog box is off top of screen to where I can’t see but a small portion of the dialog box. Can’t pull it onto screen. Anyone else experiencing this?

    I have a similar situation.  I have spring 2011 macbook pro 17" (MacBookPro8,3).  I was connecting to an older 30" Cinema Display HD, using the Apple dual-link cable with Mini DVI (Thunderbolt) and USB.  I am running 10.6.8.
    I was running this configuration for a while (closed lid/"clamshell"), but it stopped working.
    I'm pretty sure this is from the "Security Update" that I just installed.
    No amount of reboots or cable jiggering helped.
    Except this wierd thing:  if I connect the USB and display to the laptop, the display stays dark.  If i disconnect the USB cable connecting the DISPLAY to the CONVERTER, the screen comes up fine.
    I just plug the keyboard into the laptop and it works.  Of course, unplugging the CONVERTER USB from the LAPTOP makes it go away (?!).  So I've lost a USB prot with this little hack.
    Try messing the USB connections and see if you get any changes.
    I have no idea what to make of this bizarre behaviour, but it is making me crazy not being able to reliably use my desk setup with this nice laptop.
    I hope someone can offer more data or help.
