Can I use an alternate Display

I was wondering if I could use a hdmi cable to route my display on to my television?

I have an av adapter, that fits my ipad, for an hdmi cable and for a charger cord.  For some reason, the Ipad does not allow me to change displays or to mirror the ipad screen on the television.  I was wondering how to get it to mirror onto my television..

    No. You need a converter box like this to go with your MDP-VGA adapter:

    Currently, the system requirements listed for an Apple Thunderbolt Display are:
    Thunderbolt-enabled Mac computer, including MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac mini, and iMac
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    Apple - Thunderbolt Display - Read the tech specs.

    Can I Use The Multiple Display Feature With My "Early 2011" Macbook Pro? Or Does it HAVE to me "Mid 2011"?

    No not the Mirroring, the new display feature where you can have a display on your tv doing one thing (like a slide show) and you can use your computer for something els. The multi screen feature .
    You could always do that as long as you could connect all the displays.
    What you are now describing is Airplay where the data is streamed to the AppleTV. The connection no longer has to be a physical cable.

  • Can't use my apple displays with Mac mini

    Hey everyone,
    I've got a pretty strange problem, and I'm hoping you guys know of a solution to this.
    Thing is, I can't use any apple displays with my Mac mini box. Whenever I try to do so I can see that the monitors are turned on, but the screen is completely black (doesn't flicker or anything like that). I know for a fact that both of the apple monitors I tried work.
    However, monitors from other manufacturers work just fine! This has got me baffled, what is it about apple monitors that's got my Mac so confused ?

    It's possible the analog VGA is working on your mini whereas the DVI digital output is broken. They are two completely different interfaces that just happen to share a common connector on the mini.
    Can you possibly get your hands on another, non-Apple monitor that has a DVI input? I would say if all three are not working (two Apple monitors and a third-party one), then definitely something is up with the mini's DVI output.

  • CAN I USE MYApple Cinema Displays WITH MY MAC BOOK PRO

    Your 2014 MacBook Pro should have 2 Thunderbolt ports and 1 HDMI port.  We need to find out what plug your Cinema Display has.
    Does the Plug look like this:
    http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/dvi-cables/dviiplug.jpg
    If so, then its a DVI connector.   And you would need a Thunderbolt/Mini Display Port to DVI adapter.

    If not, look on the underside of the Display's frame or base/stand, there should be a model number there.

  • 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.

    Nope! If it is absolutely essential that you have different editable bits of the web app, then you might want to consider splitting your web app into different apps and linking them together with data source.

  • Can you use any external display with a macbook?

    hi all,
    I was just wondering, can you use any external display with a macbook? (i.e. gateway, and dell displays?)

    To original poster:
    Yes.
    Provided you have the appropriate ports and cables, that is. Some monitors do not have all vga, dvi-i, dvi-d, hdmi, etc. ports, and it can be misleading that all those technologies appear to be compatible via conversion cables (they aren't all meant to be compatible, so look it up on the internet before buying).
    Cheers,

  • How can I use an external display with my MBP lid closed and disconnected to power?

    I know that I can use an external display when my MBP lid is closed and it is connected to power. I was wondering why it does not work when the power cable is removed.
    I only use an external display when I am at home so my MBP acts like a Mac Pro or Mac Mini in that way, but it is not good to leave the battery charging constantly on a MBP so I want to disconnect the power and use external display and have the lid closed. Is this possible or do I have to leave my lid open when running on battery power?

    I'm plugged into my wall socket at least 90% of the time - probably more. I always make sure that I take my MBP off mains about once every two weeks and let it run down to about 30-40% and then plug it back up. This keeps the ions flowing and the battery healthy. My MBP will be one year old on March 20, 2013, and my battery health is still at 99%. I run in clamshell mode most of the time now - since I bought a 27" Apple Thunderbolt Display. Only occasionally am I off mains - and then because I'm exercising my battery, usually.
    Don't worry about running of mains most of the time - just be sure and unplug about once every two weeks (or twice a month) and let your battery dip to the 30-40% mark and you'll be fine.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • Can I use 2 external displays on new mid 2011 iMac?

    I'm thinking of getting the new 27" iMac with the 2GB video card. It lists in the tech specs two thunderbolt ports and a mini display port, but the images only show the two thunderbolt ports, so I assume Apple is counting one of those as being the dedicated mini display port. I'd like to be able to use an additional two external displays with this iMac, though one extra would be fine. I see on the video card manufacturers website, they say it can "theoretically" drive 6 displays, depending on output ports. Is this like on the Mac Pro tower that can drive 6 displays (3 displays from each video port, assuming you have 2 video cards)? Can the iMac drive 3 displays (internal and two external) off it's video port with the proper adapters, i.e. dual link dvi adapter, or just one extra external monitor? I'd be satisfied with one extra display, but being able to add a 2nd would be a nice help in Photoshop since the iMac doesn't have the anti-glare option like on the laptops. I'd like to keep the second thunderbolt port open for the upcoming thunderbolt raid storage enclosures. Thanks all for any help and information!

    Thank you, I have read that I could daisy chain the HD RAID enclosure on one of the thunderbolt ports with another monitor, if the monitor were at the end of the chain, but I do not know if the other port would still simultaneously support yet another external display at the same time.

  • Can I use iMac as display for new mac mini?

    can I hook my early 2008 24" Core 2 Duo iMac to a new Mac Mini to use as a display?
    I love the display, but my iMac is getting too slow, even with the maximally upgraded RAM to 4 GB.  I don't want to get rid of my iMac, so I was thinking of buying a Mac Mini to attach it.
    I'm worried that the OS X Yosemite will make my iMac even slower.
    Any suggestions? 
    Nick

    Not without a standalone monitor; that iMac doesn't support video in.
