    If that configuration supports Target Display mode, use it. If not, use a product such as ScreenRecycler.

  • Sound Switches Between Thunderbolt Display and MacBook Pro

    I have an Apple Thunderbolt display and MacBook Pro set-up with dual screens. I have an iPhone plugged into a dock that runs to the display. When I have music playing out of the display and I disconnect my iPhone, it switches the sound to the MacBook Pro.
    1. How do I stop this from happening?
    2. If I can't stop it from happening, how do I move the sound from the MacBook Pro back to the display?
    There doesn't seem to be any options within Preferences/Sound to change it back.
    Thank you.

    I've a Spyder4Elite that I use on both my Thunderbolt Display and on my MBP - and, while both are calibrated, they don't - and cannot - 'match' one another, no matter how hard I try.
    I suspect that you're running up against the same wall? Different technologies in different displays. I doubt that you'll ever get a perfect match: mine are just 'good enough'.

  • Can I use my macbook pro mid 2012 as an external display using thunderbolt port

    Hi,
    I want to use my macbook pro (mid 2012) screen as an external display for a raspberry pi using a HDMI to Thunderbolt cable, via the thunderbolt port on the macbook pro. Would this be possible? Can the macbook pro's thunder bolt port act as an input and is any additional software required?
    I look forward to hearing from you.
    Thanks in advance!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You are referring to Target Display mode. Target Display mode can only be used in 27-inch iMacs and iMacs with Thunderbolt, not MacBooks Pro > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11302
    Unfortunately, you can't use the MacBook Pro as a display. It doesn't support the monitor mode

  • Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009?

    Apple thunderbolt display can work with a macbook pro 2009 (mini display port? The image passes through the mini display port to the monitor, but the connections (Firewire, USB, ethernet) do not work. Can you confirm?

    I'd love to get confirmation if this is the case too.   I was all ready to buy the new iMac until I found I couldn't use it as an external monitor for my DisplayPort-based MacBook Pro.  And then I was all ready to buy the new display.
    I really hope Apple hasn't restricted this to purely Thunderbolt-equipped Macs. I know I'll end up upgrading my MacBook at some point but I can't do so just yet, and this means I'll have to go for some third-party display, camera, speakers etc for the new Mac Mini which is crazy.

  • How can I turn my Macbook Pro display off instantly?

    Hello.
    I love having my laptop connected to my TV via HDMI cable to watch TV shows. But I dont like putting it in Clamshell mode because I have a VLC Remote app that lets me put the next film on instantly without touching the laptop.
    I like to have the laptop display fully off / black so that i'm not see two images (TV and Laptop), so what I do is hold the brightness key down to turn off the display.
    Does anyone know of a menu bar app, or a command to turn the display off instantly with a single click?
    Thank You

    No eject key on new Macbook Pros...
    I guess it depends on you Macbook Pro.  My 15" Macbook Pro (2011) has the eject key to the right of the F12 key far upper right corner of the keyboard.
    My wife's 13" Macbook Pro Retina (2013) has a power button there, HOWEVER, Control-Shift-Power does exactly the same as Control-Shift-Eject.  That is to say Control-Shift-Power will turn off the screen.
    So assuming you have a power button, use
         Control-Shift-Power
    NOTE:  my older 2011 Macbook Pro has a power button in the case, not part of the keyboard, AND Control-Shift-Power also works on my older Macbook Pro to turn off the screen.

  • Can a late 2011 Macbook Pro utilize 1.35v RAM? Can OS X 10.8 display the RAM voltage?

    Can a late 2011 Macbook Pro (Sandy Bridge, not Ivy Bridge) utilize 1.35 volts Ram or will the Pro run it at 1.5 volts? Is there anyway in OS X 10.8 to determine what voltage the RAM is running at?

    Thanks again wjosten.
    Do you know of any third-party software titles that can provide the RAM's voltage? I ask because others have made unsubstantiated claims of using 1.35V ram with a late 2011 MacBook Pro and because Crucial's website suggests the use of 1.35V with a late 2011 MacBook Pro. Unless it is a mistake, I do not know why Crucial would suggest this:

  • 24-inch Mid 2007 as external display for Macbook Pro Retina?

    I'm a video editor looking for a new laptop. Tough decisions, but these facts may help my decision...
    Can I use my 24-inch Mid 2007 as external display for Macbook Pro Retina?
    And if so, would the Macbook be able to access the external hard drives that are connected to the iMac? Or do the external hard drives have to be connected to the Macbook Retina?
    Retina's picture quality is just incredible but compared to Macbook Pro non-retina you sacrifice: disc drive, port options, customization, anti-glare screen. And its more expensive. Arghh

    I would use the retina as the primary screen for the canvas and viewer, while putting the browser and timeline on the iMac.
    Apple won't help here. Unfortunately, they leave they're old products in the dust and wouldn't waste time writing an article about connecting a macbook retina to an '07 iMac.
    Thank you for replying though Ralph. The answer has to be out there somewhere.

  • Power on MacBook Pro takes me to login screen. All user icons appear as normal. Once I enter password for myself (administrator) spinning takes longer than normal and doesn't log in but displays a no sign

    Power on MacBook Pro takes me to login screen. All user icons appear as normal. Once I enter password for myself (administrator) spinning takes longer than normal and doesn't log in but displays a no sign (circle w line through it) when attempting to login from guest account it takes me to screen that says that the computer will restart to a safe safari system for the guest user. I waited for a longer time and the grey denim screen comes up. By the apple in left upper corner it said I think LSA? Then safari menu bar.

    Hello chrispyw,
    If your content is still being displayed incorrectly, I would check the resolution setting for the built in display with this article:
    OS X Yosemite: Adjust your display’s resolution
    If it keeps happening whenever you use AirPlay then I would use this section of the following article to reset the display system:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,

  • IMac as Display for MacBook Pro

    I would have my iMac as extrernal display for MyBook Pro.
    If I will find coresponding adapter will I be able to do so?

    Thanks in advance...

    Only 2009 and 2010 27" iMacs and 2011 ThunderBolt iMacs have the ability to be used as an external display.
    'Older' iMacs don't have that ability.

  • HT1338 How can I upgrade my MacBook Pro from OS X 10.5.8 to most recent Operating System ?

    How can I upgrade my MacBook Pro from OS X 10.5.8 to most recent Operating System ?
    I just bought a Ipad Air and realized than my MacPro does not support Icloud.

    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion or Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.

  • Display from MacBook Pro

    I want macbook pro sleep and close whole i use iMac display from macbook pro but cannont, I use thunderbolt core plugin of both. any one know ? how to solve it.
    Thank you for you time

    You have to have a Keyboard, Mouse and the AC adapter connected to the Macbook Pro to be able to use what Apple calls Clamshell mode. That is where you have an external monitor connected to the MBP and close the lid so the notebook screen turns off but yet the system does not sleep so you can still use it with the external monitor.
    No there is no way to put the MBP to sleep and still use it. That would be like you going to work, Taking a Nap and still doing your job. Can't be done as far as I know.
