Can I use my 2009 24" Apple Cinema Display I purchased in USA in Germany?

Hello All,
I'm moving from the United States to Germany, and am trying to figure out if I need to sell my relatively new 24" cinema display and purchase a European model, or if I can somehow switch the AC cable to a euro model (or use an adapter safely). Any thoughts?

Is it possible to get a Euro AC cord instead of using an adapter? Does the Apple Store sell these?
Thanks for your help. Given your response I'm assuming that with only an adapted AC cable on the display my MacBook Pro and my monitor should be happy drinking from a normal German wall outlet.

  • Where can I buy a Brand New Apple Cinema Display 30"?

    Hi,
    I Already posted my question in the older Display topic, but I'm not sure it was the good place, so I post it here. If it's not the good place, you can move my thread to the good topic. Thanks.
    I'm looking for mounths to buy a brand new 30" Apple Cinema Display. I went to some Apple reseller/Apple Stores and each of them didn't really knew where I could buy it since it's discontinued. I can't believe there is no brand new 30" Apple Cinema Display lying around in some Apple Stores/Apple general center at Toronto or anywhere in USA.
    I really want one of them, and I'm ready to make anything to get one (phone call etc). I would like to get some help of where I can call or where I can go to get what I want. The price doesn't really matter now.
    Thanks!

    Have you done google searches for it ("Apple 30" cinema display")?  That's all I can recommend.
    A quick google search turned up this page which apparently lists some new 30"s.
    Note, I did not follow those links to see if "new" really meant "new".

  • Can I use a 2009 iMac as external display for 2007 macbook pro with DVI port only

    I have a late 2009 imac with minidisplay port and  a 2007 macbook pro with DVI port. I connected a mini diaplay port to DVI cable but all I get on the imac is a blank screen when I press F2. Can I use the imac this way?

    I'm not sure if it works with DVI but your late 2009 must be a 27". Try Command-F2 or Copmmand-Fn-F2

  • 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.

  • 2nd Apple Cinema Display calibration!

    i owned one 23" Apple Cinema Display before purchasing a second used 23" Display a year later, to create a dual display editing suite.
    While setting up the second monitor i selected the same profile as my first monitor, but noticed that the second monitor was more yellow. i tried calibrating the monitor the get the two to match, this was not successful!
    Can anybody help?

    I have a 23" iMac and a 24" Cinema Display, both purchased at the same time, and the colors are not the same. I have calibrated both with a Spyder Pro system and with the Apple software but still get very different hues on the some photo showing on both screens.

  • Do Window Vista Dirvers exist for Apple Cinema Displays ?

    I am using a 23 inch Apple Cinema Display with a windows Vista box and noticed it is using a generic HD driver. Should I have a diver specific to the ACD? Do any exist?
    Thanks

    I have one more idea that might help people. This is a theory on my part, so bear with me.
    You can extract all of the files from WinACD and use just the INF files get your monitor to display at the proper resolutions. To do so, do an Administrative Install using the following command:
    msiexec /a <path to msi file>WinACD-0.4.6.msi
    This will extract the files to C:\Program Files\WinACD, but not install the application onto the system. You can then go to:
    Settings - Control Panel - Display
    Click on Settings and then Advanced
    Click on Monitor and then Properties
    Click on Update Driver... and find the acdmonitor.inf file in C:\Program Files\WinACD\noarch.
    Theoretically that should work. I cannot test the very last step for I have it working correctly already.
    I will tinker with this on Vista 64 this weekend and see how to make it work. You should not have to do this with Vista 32. I had to turn of the User Account Control in order to be able to install it. With it on, WinACD says that it could not install because it was interrupted.

  • Apple Cinema Display speakers no longer work after Mavericks update

    I have a MacBook Pro 15", purchased in late-2010 connected to a 27" Apple Cinema Display also purchased at the same time.  The display connects to the MacBook Pro via USB and mini displayport.  The built-in 2.1 speakers on the display were working fine until the upgrade to Mavericks.  When I go into the speakers settings, I can change it to internal speakers and the sound comes from the MacBook Pro, but when I choose the cinema display, nothing happens.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi lelandgray,
    If you are having audio issues with your Cinema Display after upgrading your MacBook Pro to Mavericks, you may want to make sure that the most recent Cinema Display Firmware Update has been installed. You may find the following article helpful:

  • 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.

  • Can I use an old Apple Cinema Display with new Mac Mini?

    Currently I have an early PowerMac G5 that I bought used recently. It came with an Apple Cinema Display (20", I think - resolution is 1680x1050). The Cinema Display does not have a separate power cord so it must be powered from the PowerMac. My question is this - would I be able to use this monitor with a new Mac Mini - would it be able to power it the same as the PowerMac is currently.
    Thanks in advance for your help. This is the first Mac I have owned since a "Fat Mac" many years ago (one of those with the 9" black and white screen).

    Are you sure you have a 20" CINEMA display? I have 2x 20" CINEMA displays and both have their own power cord (and power brick). Maybe yours is a STUDIO display??? IDK if STUDIO displays worked that way or not, I've never owned one. Anyways, I have a 20" CINEMA display connected to my new Mac mini (early 2009) via the MiniDVI>DVI adapter and it works fine but is powered through the power cord though. I too have a PowerMac G5 (quad) but my PowerMac cannot power the displays without them being plugged in via their power cords. I am thinking you must have a STUDIO display or maybe there was an earlier version of the CINEMA display that could work that way.... idk. Mine were purchased at the end of 2005 along with the PowerMac G5 (quad).

  • What years apple cinema display can I connect to the new 2012 mac mini?

    I have a 23" Apple Cinema Display that I purchased in 2007. I currently have it connected to m7 2009 Mac Mini. Can I use it with the new 2012 Mac Mini? I am running the latest OS on my 2009 Mac Mini.  I want to upgrade my Mac Mini for more storage a nd the faster processor.

    Yes.  You can connect it to the Mac Mini's HDMI port with the HDMI to DVI adapter that comes with the new Mac Mini, or you can connect it to the Thunderbolt port with a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter.

  • Second display from iMac27" (late 2009) miniDisplay Port worked fine until today- now no longer connects to Apple Cinema Display

    Have a configuration of an iMac27" (MAC 27"/4850-512MB PROCESSOR 2.66GHZ QUAD-CORE INTEL CORE I5 Dec 2009 model) and a second screen Apple Cinema Display 2009 model 24"
    The setup with the Apple Cinema Display has been working fine for 3 years and since yesterday the second screen refuses to work.
    Connected it to a MacBookPro and the Apple Cinema DIsplay functions fine sot my conclusion is it is not the Apple Cinema Display's error.
    Could it be that the Mini Display Port on the iMac is somehow broken? Or is there a software fix I need to checkout?
    Thanks for your help on resolving this issue.

    UPDATE:
    As noted in the first post, both of these newer USB DAC work fine at 24/96 on my wife's iMac, so it's clear that they didn't both become defective when I connected them to the Macbook Pro at the same time.
    Resetting the Macbook Pro PRAM didn't help, so I removed the hard shell laptop case to get to the battery and remove it, then reset the SMC. After that I could use the original DAC at 24/96 again, but only IF it was plugged into the rear USB port. If I plugged it into the front USB port then the sound was garbled and filled with noise. This was a vast improvement over no sound at all.
    Then I switched to the replacement/updated DAC, but I got no sound at all from either USB port at any bit-rate. And returning to the original DAC again now results in no sound again.
    Sigh... I will reset the PRAM and SMC again, and see how far I can get with this. I'd still love some help. Thanks!

  • 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.
