Apple performa display

I have a non functioning "Apple Performa Display", Model: M9102LL/D.  It appears that the power switch is defective since I can get pilot light and raster by holding the switch in but when I let go, the monitor shuts down.
My questions:
1. Is this display usable with the Apple IIGS?
2. Does anyone know where I can find a schematic or service manual for this product?
3. Has anyone seen/solved this problem in the past.
Thanks, in advance

This is the story of what plugs to what:

I think what you want is a 922-3764, but I am not certain.
This is the list of all adapters:

Look very carefully at which end has the pins/holes. If you cannot tell, look for the thumbscrews to tell whether the pictured end accepts a cable with male pins or computer with holes.

  • Apple Cinema Display with DVI to VGA graphic adapter... HELP

    A friend of mine has a PC (Windows XP based) and is using the Apple Cinema Display. Since his graphic card has both vga and dvi slot, he can plug the monitor to DVI and got it working, but when he tried to plug it into the VGA slot using DVI to VGA converter, it did not work. Is there a need of special converter or adapter?

    Hi royz86,
    To run a DVI display off a VGA output, you need a rather expensive converter box. These converters vary in performance, reliablility and application possibilities and certainly don't compare with using a native DVI output.
    Your friend was probably trying to use a DVI to VGA adaptor (which won't work "the other way around"). It works by grabbing the analogue signal that is included in a DVI-I output and setting up a VGA output that way. These don't work with DVI-D outputs, by the way.
    Cheers!

  • Monitor of Apple Performa 475

    The monitor of an Apple Performa 475 has gone completely RED and doiesn't display the normal text from Word Processing documents. Can anything be done to solve problem ?

    What version of the Mac OS is the Performa 475 running? How much RAM does the Mac have installed? I'm guessing your monitor may be out of adjustment. I tried to locate a Service Manual but couldn't find one anywhere online. You may need to buy a Apple Service Source CD-ROM. There are numerous sellers on eBay selling these CD-ROMs that include manuals for older Apple monitors like your Performa Plus Display. If the monitor is at all similar to my Macintosh Color Display you may have to disassemble it to get at the monitor's controls too. If the contrast or brightness controls are user accessible I would attempt to adjust those first to see if the monitor becomes more legible. Even then though you may have to disassemble it to get at controls like the blue, yellow & green adjustments if necessary.

  • Mac Mini + 3x Apple Thunderbolt Displays?

    Can you connect 3 Apple Thunderbolt displays with a single Mac mini?

    Or for example can I use 2 apple thunderbolt displays + 1 HDMI display (for total 3)?
    Yes for the mid 2011 Mac Mini with AMD graphics.  See footnote 3:
    "Mac mini with AMD graphics can support an HDMI compatible device on its HDMI port when using two Thunderbolt displays."
    Or use something like USB to display adaptors in order to have 3 displays total?
    Yes, but with resolution and performance limitations.
    <http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/VIDU2DVIA/>
    My ultimate objective is for 3 displays (e.g. 3 apple thunderbolt displays).
    Would appreciate any assistance / recommendations on the best way to achieve this.
    There is one Mac that can handle more than two Thunderbolt displays.

  • Apple Cinema Displays make OSX crash - or not

    Hello everyone, I am new to these forums, though I have often checked for answers here.
    I have looked as best I could for issues similar to ours but haven't found any yet, so here it goes:

    Never had a problem (Computer purchased in mid-2007). However, a couple of weeks ago, it started: the OS wouldn't start. After a few trials and tests and wonderments, we realised that what prevented it from starting (you know, whirly thing then sometimes apple logo then just light blue: frozen) was the way the screens were plugged into the computer.
    At the back of the computer there are four connections for the displays, two at the top and two at the bottom. They used to be connected to the two bottom ones. Then we realised that only attaching one single display to the top right connection would allow the computer to start.
    Further tests led us to attach the second display AFTER the whole OS was up and operating, again at the top (next to the only functioning one for startup), and the displays work perfectly. However, if I leave them in this arrangement and turn off the computer, when I start it again the system crashes, like before.
    I am pretty sure at this point that a hardware problem is causing a software crash, but what do you think it consists of? We performed all the tests, including the extended hardware test with the installation disk. No problems were found at all.
    Would it be helpful (or harmful!) to take out the graphics cards and place them in different slots?
    Thanks so much in advance,
    Valentina

    Hi, I have tried shifting them around, and the problem does seem to follow the graphics card, despite all tests indicating they are both working properly. Any other arrangements will cause a grey screen to come down while starting up and say I need to restart the computer.
    Changing the slots for the graphic cards, but keeping the display attached in the right place, would allow the computer to turn on but a window would come up saying that they weren't optimally configured (16x or 8x or 4x speeds). The best configuration remains the one I begun with (slots 1 and 4). The computer will only start properly with the display in slot 4, right hand side looking at the back of the display, and only when it's turned on will it allow me to attach the second monitor, again, only in slot 4, to the left side.
    The same would work if the card was in slot 1, but it would tell me they weren't configured ideally so I put the card back in slot 4.
    At this point, then (I have also just tried resetting the PRAM by pressing cmdoption+PR when restarting, but no changes) should I reconfigure the graphics card? (If yes, how do I do it?)
    Thanks again, Valentina

  • How do I attach my iSight camera to my Apple Cinema Display?

    I've just bought two iSight cameras, and found nothing in the accessory kit with them that would allow me to attach the camera to my Apple Cinema Display. This is because the back of the Cinema Display is beveled rather than flat, so the flat base of the accessories won't set firmly.
    Does anybody have a solution for this?

  • Can I use an Apple Cinema Display as a second monitor for my iMac?

    I have a new 24" intel iMac and was wondering if I could use my old 20" Apple Cinema Display (aluminum) as a dual display. What cables do I need?

    Just had a good look inside my box and nothing. Maybe it's a Apple UK thing
    The back of my iMac does have a Mini DVI port so I'm gonna pop down the Apple store tomorrow morning to pick one up.
    Thanks for the advice, I'll let you know if I'm successful.

  • How to connect a apple cinema display to an imac

    I have a brand new 27 inch iMac. I also own a 30 inch  Apple Cinema Display.  What peripheral adaptor do I need to connect the display to my new iMac?

    Hello,
    Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort-> Dual Link DVi cable...
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter
    A notable peculiarity of Thunderbolt is that it uses exactly the same connector as Mini Display Port, and that's not all. The Thunderbolt connector also carries Mini Display Port video signals. That means you can plug a Mini Display Port video cable/adapter in to a Thunderbolt connector and your monitor will work.

  • Can I use a 30" Apple Cinema display with a new 27" iMac?

    I have a brand new iMac(27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8), i7 3.5 GHz, 32MB RAM, 4GB NVIDIA.  I will soon be upgrading it to Mavericks, if that makes a difference.  My understanding is that the resolution on it is 2560 x 1440.
    I'm looking at buying a used 30" Apple Cinema display.  I'd like to use it with my new iMac.  The only advantage for me would be that the 30" screen is larger and things on it easier to see (or so I'm guessing).
    I need to know if the 30" Cinema display would work with my new iMac, and if it would, as I'm guessing, give me a larger, easier-to-see screen.
    I currently have my new iMac connected to my old mid-2010 iMac as a target display (that old iMac has a minidisplay port--no Thunderbolt), and that works great.  I just want a larger screen.
    I called Apple support, and the tech rep wasn't sure it would work.  He seemed to think that the 30" Cinema displays were made with different connections.  Some had minidisplay ports (which he thought would work), and some a cord built into them that provided some other type of connection (that I guess would not work as far as he knew).
    Can anyone tell me if this would work?  Would my new iMac and its video card support the 30" Cinema display?  Would the result be as sharp and good-looking as my iMac's built-in 27" display, but only bigger (which is what I'm hoping for)?  Any advice is appreciated.
    I don't yet know many of the specifics of the 30" Cinema display I'm considering.  I know it is about 3 years old.  And here is a picture of the back of it:

    Yes, you should be able use the 30" Cinema Display with your new iMac without problems. You'll need a mini-DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter
    I haven't had the 30" myself to test so I don't know if there any caveats. Perhaps someone else here will have personal experience.
    Regards.

  • How to connect old Apple Cinema Display to new Mac Mini?

    Hello,
    I'm considering replacing an old Mac Mini with the new model, but I intend to keep on using my old Apple Cinema Display 20" with it. But i'm having some trouble finding the right conversor (it seems there isn't any from Apple...)
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    If by "old" apple cinema the OP is referring to the aluminum displays of the later mac models, then yes, that's a no-brainer, the problem is that if the OP is referring to the "real" old apple cinema displays, which have a DVI-type connection with power included on the same cable, like the displays the former Mac G4 or G5 had, then he needs a ADP to DVI port, which in most cases it cost more than the actual monitor itself.. I guess the OP needs to specify what does it mean by old apple displays or throw in a link to an image..

  • How do i connect my Fujitsu Tablet + mac Pro to Apple Cinema Display 23'?

    Dear Mac users
    thanks in advance for your help.
    I currently own:
    • Fujitsu T 4220 (tablet) – Mobile Intel 965 Express – 60 Hertz – goes up to 1680*1050 (guess SXGA) – (it has the following other supported resolutions: 1400*1050, 1280*1024, 1280*768, 1280*720, 1024*768, and 800*600)
    • Mac Pro
    • Apple Cinema Display 23’
    What I would like to do is, please refer to the jpeg posted on http://www.flickr.com/photos/34831802@N06/3234336204/, connect – at the same time – my tablet pc and my Mac Pro to the 23' Apple Cinema Display and switch (when I need) from tablet to MacPro using the same 23’ ACD. Top would be to be able to switch for one to the other while they’re both switched on. Usually on 2 pc’s with vga I’d use a switch A → B (in the jpeg it would be I → E) with a selector.
    Have been reading different posts such as: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8000641&#8000641 or http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6530475&#6530475 or
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7417258&#7417258
    + others on the net and have (hopefully) understood that:
    a) from Vga to Dvi I need a converter such as Geffen’s or similar
    b) the problem with ACD 23’ is that it has only 3 resolutions: 1024*640, 1280*800 or 1920*1200
    In the attached image I guessed a connection in order to connect – at the same time – both the machines to the 23’ ACD:
    1) my fujitsu tablet (i in the image) has to be connected, with a Vga cable (h), to the Vga → Dvi converter (g).
    2) from the Vga → Dvi converter (g) I need to connecto to the Dvi switch (c)
    3) easier is connecting the Mac Pro (e), since I only need a Dvi cable (d) to connecto to the Dvi switch (c)
    4) the Dvi switch (c) will then be connected to the 23’ ACD with a Dvi cable
    Now, my questions are:
    a) is the solution described above (Vga cable (h) to the Vga → Dvi converter (g)) a good solution or should I use, instead, a docking statione that comes with a Fujitsu Port Replicator (FPCPR65) which has a 1 x DVI-D port?
    b) Given the 3 resolution accepted by the 23’ ACD (1024*640, 1280*800 or 1920*1200), I do not understand if I can use my tablet through a Vga to Dvi Converter and at which resolution (my tablet has the following other supported resolutions: 1680*1050, 1400*1050, 1280*1024, 1280*768, 1280*720, 1024*768, and 800*600).
    c) Is there a way, also using an external video card or converter, to bring my resolution from 1680*1050 to 1920*1200? (the 16:10 ratio is in fact the same = WXGA (1280x800), WXGA+ (1440x900), WSXGA+ (1680x1050), WUXGA (1920x1200)
    d) Talking about Vga → Dvi converter (g), am aware of the gefen product. Can you please list some others that might be good as well?
    e) And how about the DVI switch? Any will work? Any particular suggestion?
    Thank you very much for your help.
    If you have any other suggestion, please let me know.
    Regards,
    Emil

  • Dual ADC Apple Studio Displays (clear acrylic) with Mac Mini

    I currently have the old school Apple Studio Display ADC monitor hooked up to my Mac Mini using the ADC to DVI adapter. I have a second Studio ADC Display and another ADC to DVI adapter to run Dual Displays. I just bought a SEE 2 XTREME DVI to USB which is used for adding multiple monitors. I have it all hooked up. Its just basic plug and play after installing the Mac driver. My second monitor power light just flashes and wont turn on...Any suggestions? I already made sure both monitors and both ADC to DVI adapters worked, and they do. Please Help!! Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    yea, I checked that out about the light flashes. I have tried both monitors seperately and they both work fine...just not with this DVI to USB dual monitor adapter. Also, when I had them hooked up individually, I made sure the resolution was set the same in the system preferences > displays.

  • Mac mini with Apple Mini Display to VGA adaptor

    Hello,
    I have just purchased a new i5 mac mini, and have started to use it with an HDMI TV. This is great, but I really want to go back to using just my VGA monitor, which is an LGFlatron W2243S.
    So, today, with the HDMI plugged in, I put a Apple Mini Display Port to VGA adaptor into the back of the mac mini, hooked it up to the monitor and great. The monitor was recognised, and it actually appeared as a second display.
    But then, I pulled out the HDMI lead, and that was the start of the trouble. I now cannot get the LG monitor to work - instead it goes into power saving mode. I have proven the VGA cable, and also noted that the display settings do detect the monitor, but it just keeps going into power saving mode.
    Reading on the internet I've found talk of the power from the mini display port being a possible problem.
    At the moment then, the HDMI is still plugged in. Any advice on any settings I should be using to get the mini display -> VGA adaptor to work with the monitor? It is obviously working in some form (a) because I can't believe apple would continue to sell a dud product and (b) because it did occur briefly as a second monitor.

    I've got some more information which I'm hoping might enable someone somewhere to help!!
    So, I've just connected up the monitor again, with success. Both the HDMI and VGA monitor as mirrorred displays.
    Then, I removed the HDMI connection, and the VGA monitor stayed on. I was also able to change the resolution successfully on the VGA monitor.
    Then I restarted the system. The VGA monitor went into standby and wouldn't wake up from power saving mode (therefore was not able to see the password screen).
    Plugged the HDMI back in (as well as the VGA) and restarted. Password screen came up on the HDMI screen. OS started up as normal, then the VGA screen came back to life on mirrored display.
    So there is some level of success occuring now, except on restart. It seems as once the OS loads, it sends the signal to the VGA to switch on, but not on the password screen. Note that I do not want the HDMI screen connected - just the VGA. It's really a TV and I want to use it elsewhere.
    I also downloaded the DP to VGA firmware update, but even with everything plugged in (and ironically with the VGA on and working!) it says that it cannot find a DP to VGA adaptor!!
    This all suggests to me that things work, but that there's something I'm not quite doing right somewhere. My PC connects to the VGA monitor fine, and comes on at power up.
    Thanks in hope.
