Can I use a thunderbolt to DVI adapter to connect my NEC montor to my MAC MINI?

I guess I can turn the question around and ask how many differnt ways are there to attach a monitor to a MAC MINI?

It should work if the NEC is DVI.
Other ways are expensive Apple Thunderbolt Monitor, or these..

  • Can I use the thunderbolt output to a component video input to my home theater

    I am trying to get video from the thunderbolt connection to my home theater using component inputs--can it be done

    You would need some sort of conversion routine. I'm not sure how well it would work, but you can likely use a Displayport to DVI adapter, coupled with a DVI to Component adapter, such as this pairing: http://www.amazon.com/DVI-I-Component-DisplayPort-Female-Adapter/dp/B003OBOJC2
    Alternatively you could use VGA adapters instead of DVI. I havent tried this personally, but it definitely has worked for some.

  • Can I import video from a Firewire camcorder using the Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter?

    I have an older camcorder that has a firewire interface. My new iMac does not have any firewire ports. Can I import video from the camcorder using a Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter or is the Thunderbold adapter only used for hard drives and displays?

    Rather than an adapter, I would suggest you purchase a 4 pin to 9 pin Firewire 800 cable to run from the camera to the Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter. Those FW 400 to 800 adapters frequently do not work so well for importing video in my experience.
    The Firewire cables are pretty inexpensive if you get them online. For example try Monoprice.

  • Can I connect my old mac to my new mac using the thunderbolt to ethernet adapter

    I've got a lot of data to transfer from one mac to another, one with thunderbolt and one without. I was wondering if by using the thunderbolt to ethernet adapter I could connect the two macs in a target mode kinda way.
    I know people will answer with a lot of other options in how to do this, but I am specifically interested in whether or not this option is possible.
    Thanks!

    you can use the adapter with any Thunderbolt-equipped Mac running OS X Lion 10.7.4 or later, but you'll want to install the Thunderbolt Software Update 1.2.1 after having the 10.7.4 upgrade
    10.7.4

  • How do i connect my mac mini to a kvm switch using the hdmi to dvi adapter?

    I want to connect my Mac Mini using the HDMI to DVI adapter to a KVM switch cable. I have an Iogear KVM switch. The cable from the KVM switch has a male VGA end connection. I have been trying to determine the right adapter to connect the female DVI connection to the male VGA connector. I will be using the Mac mini and a PC running through the KVM switch. This is doable as the iogear switch is compatible with both a PC and a Mac. Any ideas out there? Thank you.

    You would need to get  HDMI or DVI to VGA CONVERTER, not a simple adopter. The converter requires USP connection for power. HDMI is only digital while VGA is analogue.

  • How can i use  27" Thunderbolt to VGA moniter

    Hi.
    I have Mac mini late 2012 i7 and 27" thunderbolt display.
    How can i use 27" thunderbolt display through vga moniter.
    I use mac mini-->27" Thunderbolt -->mini DP to VGA adapter --> VGA moniter.
    I used before 27"iMac --> Mini DP to VGA adapter -->VGA moniter.
    It was perpect works.

    A Mini DisplayPort display or adapter won't work plugged directly into a Thunderbolt display.  It will work if you connect a Thunderbolt disk drive (with two Thunderbolt ports) between the Thunderbolt display and the Mini DisplayPort device,
    You could try using the Mac Mini's HDMI port with a VGA adapter
    <http://ca.startech.com/AV/Converters/Video/HDMI-to-VGA-Adapter-Converter-for-Des ktop-PC-Laptop-Ultrabook-1920x1080~HD2VGAE>
    Make sure you can get a refund if it doesn't work.  Some Mac HDMI ports may not provide enough power for some VGA adapters.

  • Can I use my Thunderbolt Display with my PS3?

    Hi there, I have recently purchased a Thunderbolt Display and I was wondering if I could use it with my PS3. I know I'll need a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter, but will I need anything else like a converter or can I plug it straight in?
    Thanks

    A Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter can connect a HDMI display to a Thunderbolt port.  It does not work in the other direction.  If the PS3 has no Thunderbolt port, you can't use a Thunderbolt display.  There are no adapters or converters that can help.

  • I just purchased a 3TB Time Capsule.  I live in Italy and have 220V power.  The Time Capsule is rated for that, but the cord says 125V.  Can I use this cord with an adapter, or do I need to buy a new cord at an Italian store?

    I just purchased a 3TB Time Capsule.  I live in Italy and have 220V power.  The Time Capsule is rated for that, but the cord says 125V.  Can I use this cord with an adapter, or do I need to buy a new cord at an Italian store?

    Due to the kind of plug used the US power cord is rated at the 125v value.. and legally we cannot advise you to use on higher voltages.. although I have never had issues in Australia.. 240v.
    But adapters from your Euro power plug to US are generally ugly .. unsightly things.. and often sit high above the socket and are none too stable.. I agree with Bob.. just go out and buy a standard figure 8 power cord.. check with Apple in Italy for a white one.. if you are going to have it on show.. black are far more common. Or even check ebay for a standard power Apple power cord as a number of items they sell use the figure8 socket.

    You do have Firewire 800 and it seems plenty fast for most use. Easy to install and the cradles allow for multiple disks swapping or daisey chain for multiple cradles.
