Does 23" Apple Cinema Display support sAdobe Color Profile?

i was told the 23" Apple Cinema display does not support sAdobe color profile, can anyone confirm if does or not, thank.

I take it back. NEC sell a monitor that acheives 107% of the Adobe Color Space.

NEC seem to be a leader in this regard.

23" Apple Cinema Display and accurate color?

I use a dual 2.3GHz Power Mac G5 along with a 23" Apple Cinema Display fro graphic design work. I used to use a Pantone Color calibration device when I was using third-party monitors with my Macs. Now that I have the Cinema Display, I haven't bothered to calibrate this wonderful monitor. I had heard that using Apple's displays with their own computers would display the most accurate color possible without calibration. I haven't changed the color settings in my Adobe products, and I'm not seeing any significant issues with my color outputs. Any advice on this subject is appreciated.

If the display uses the Apple Display Connector (ADC)

you will need a DVI to ADC adapter.

Hello,
I have bought new mac mini (late 2012) with OSX 10.9.4 installed on it.
I have apple cinema display (20"), model: A1038 from before. When i turned on mac mini the display was not detected.
I also have one Samsung monitor which was detected without problems.
I tried next steps already:
- connect only apple cinema display with HDMI to DVI and turn on coomputer
- connect only apple cinema display with mini displayport to DVI and turn on coomputer
- connect both displays, went to System preferences -> display and click on 2Detect display"
nothing works
Specs of my mac mini:
mac mini (late 2012)

Macbook Pro no longer support Apple Cinema Display after graphic update 1.0

I recently updated my system to ver. 10.5.2 and after that I updated to graphic system 1.0. After that my macbook pro began to have several problems dealing with my 23" Apple Cinema Display.
1- if started in 'closed lid' mode it gives me a kernel panic (shaded screen) error during start up
2- if started in 'open lid' mode it boots fine but whether i decide to close the lid it fails to wake from sleep mode. It starts for one or two seconds and then it gets back to sleep.
So, I made a long time taking test during the weekend and after several "archive and install" I found that this issue is related to the leopard graphic system update 1.0. Somehow this update mess up the way that macbook pro deals with my Apple Cinema Display.
I hope that someone at Apple will address this issue toward a solution in a short time.
I appreciate any other experience in this sense by anybody.
Thank you for any reply.

Check out the 'Apple Displays' forum and you'll find that you are not alone. MBP/Cinema Display relationship broken since graphics updater. Hopefully an Apple patch soon, or it's time for an Archive and Install w/o updating the graphics.

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:
Our system:
System Version: Mac OS X 10.4.11 (8S2167)
Our two Apple Cinema Displays:
Displays:
Cinema:
Display Type: LCD
Resolution: 1680 x 1050

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

Apple Cinema Display (20-inch DVI 2005) not working after 10.10.3 update

I have an Apple Cinema Display (20-inch DVI 2005) that isn't working after installing the 10.10.3 update. The screen is just blank, and the power light just blinks a few times every 30 seconds or so. I use this as a second monitor with my iMac (27-inch, Late 2012). Any way to fix this? Thanks!

Thank you for the update!
Next I would recommend the Reset the System section of the following article for additional troubleshooting:
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.
I would reset the SMC and the PRAM together, in that order one more time, then do the Safe Boot if needed.

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?

Calibrating Apple Cinema Display for Video Editing

What's the procedure to calibrate an Apple Cinema Display for editing in FCP (editing and preliminary color grading)?
My camcorder can produce color bars, but I can't hook it up directly to the monitor. Shall I record color bars and use the recorded clip to calibrate? What's the procedure regarding calibration?
Thanks!

The need to "calibrate" a display for video "editing" is a complete fallacy. There is no need to have accurate images when plopping pictures and graphics next to each other to create a story in a linear fashion. For accuracy you need a dedicated input/output device with a display that represents your intended delivery; projection, broadcast, whatever. If your intended delivery is web or phone only, well, it's a total rodeo where the word "consistency" has no meaning at all.
The MXO, it puts a look up table on a computer monitor and then does some other electronic mumbo jumbo to simulate interlacing and other tv junk. I call it lipstick on a pig, others here will give it high marks.
The only real constant is that if you want to play in the world of "hd", the costs are bigger than in "sd" and is the return on investment worth it?

Apple Cinema Display 22" doesn't power on

All - I have an old 22" Apple Cinema Display, model# M8149 that won't power on at all - no picture, no blinky lights on the front, just totally dead. I've tried it with a known function ADC capable video card as well as a known working DVIator external power supply - notta.
Does anyone have any idea which part may be defective? I see lots of posts about replacing the inverter board, but in all cases, the posts indicate the monitor powers on, just no or blank picture. Mine doesn't show any signs of life whatsoever.
any help is appreciated.
thx,

Are you sure that the connector on your laptop is a "AVG" ? Never heard of that one before. Perhaps it is a VGA???? If it is a VGA and your laptop graphics card is 16 MB video or less, it probably will not support the resolution of the 23 inch. As I can recall, it needs minimum of 32MB video ram to run it. Most older laptops will max out at resolutions of 1200X800. Find out what specs are on the card.

Mac Pro - Windows 7 - Apple Cinema Display

Hi -- after years of not installing Windows on a separate drive, I finally did it. The install went failrly well, wireless devices work in Windows 7. My remaining issue is that Windows 7 doesn't seem to recognize the Apple Cinema Display (ACD) with the Mini Display Port. If I switch to a different DVI monitor, the display seems fine. However, if I go back to the ACD, the display shakes upon boot up, and the resolution, screen size in off and a generic display is seen in the Control Panel. Sometimes, it does recognize the ACD, which is weird, but never on boot up.
Is the only solution running a DVI adaptor and not using the ACD with the Mini Display Port? When I first installed the BootCamp drivers, it seemed to work, but there were a few updates afterwards, and it seems that I lost whatever had stabilized the issue.
Thanks!

There was someone complaining about using two VGA monitors on 2010 w/ ATI 5770.
There is an improved dual display support now in Windows 8. Windows 7 was always "where is my screen" on startup. The video port close to the motherboard seems to be A or primary that it looks for on startup.
I have 23" ACD (2006 unit) Mac Pro but always used GTX, no ATI card (well recently I was using Windows only and an ATI 6790 or something).
And of course you must have installed ATI (Windows own drivers are iffy or "okay" but not the best.
Apple drivers for Windows (aka "Boot Camp" 3.x or Lion's 4.01) include driver support for the ACD.
You say MDP and 4870 in profile, but I didn't think Apple's 4870 had one, and flashed PC cards always have trouble (unflashed 4870 would of course work as normal as can under Windows).
Rollback update of driver is one step. Run Driver Sweeper 3.2 and CCleaner (and clean the registry) to get the graphic driver installed and 'clean.'
Patch Tuesday can always affect a few systems and a problem but more likely a conflict with something else.
One at a time see if you can get new graphic driver to help.
Wtih the 5770 Apple tech note does mention not using adapters.
And don't allow Windows to provide gpu driver if it asks

Mac Pro 2008 Apple Cinema Displays are black and there are start up issues

I have a Mac Pro 2008 Dual quad 2.8 GHz. I have two Apple Cinema Displays (graphics are the standard ATI Radeon HD 2600 – 2 dual link DVI. I have 4 2-GB RAM sticks (8 GB total).
Neither of my displays are showing anything. Their power lights are on but they are completely black throughout the start up process. In addition when I try to boot up with both graphics cards installed, I get nothing – no beeps no chimes. If just one card is installed (either card in either slot) the computer beeps, chimes and makes the sounds of booting up, but not a flicker on the displays. RAM does not seem to be the issue as I have tried booting with several configurations of RAM sticks with no negative or positive effects. I tried booting up with Hard Drives 1 & 2 removed with no effect. I have tried several different start up moods and have reset PRAM.
My guess is that there is something wrong with the motherboard. Or is it possible that both graphics cards are bad?

The "least intensive" thing you can do is hold down Alt/Option at Startup. Thsi invokes the all-in-ROM Startup Manager, which will light up the screen gray or blue, then attempt to draw an Icon for each potentially-bootable Volume attached (if any). It works as if in slow motion, so you must be patient. If no activity after about two minutes you may count that as a failure.
The next most intensive is to attempt to boot from an incorruptible source of software, such as an Installer/Utilities DVD. This again uses the "one-size-fits-all" display driver, and attempts to load software off the DVD. The dark colored Apple is loaded off a drive -- it is not present inside your Mac.
The next most intensive step is to attempt to boot into Safe Mode. This also uses the "one-size-fits-all" display Driver, and does a disk check as it starts up, adding five minutes to the startup time. It then drwas a login screen and deamds your username and password, even if you normally auto-login.

I think I've set-up FCP7 on 2 Apple Cinema Displays

Hmmmmmm! I don't know if I've done things correctly but I seem to have FCP7 running on both monitors.
I'm running a 8 Core Mac Pro, with 2 GT120 cards and 2 24" Apple Cinema Displays.
This is what I've done:
I've loaded up FCP7. I have the Browser, Viewer and Timeline in the left hand monitor.
I've dragged the Canvas to the right hand monitor and the View/Video Plackback I've set it to Digital Cinema Desktop Preview - Full Screen.
I now am able to make all my changes in the left hand monitor and can see a full screen preview in the right hand monitor.
The only downer is that I have a massive gap where the Canvas once was!! I can make the Viewer or Browser bigger but this just seems like a cheat!!!
Is what I've done the correct way of doing things? Or is it just a work around/cheating?

So is there anyway to make the Canvas resemble what the final version of the edit would look like? Both in terms of size, colour and style?
The 2nd monitor (large or small) will still only show you a proxy image. If you want to know what the edit is really going to look like, you'll need an external monitoring solution. This includes an external monitor fed by a device that converts from computer color space to video colorspace. The monitor should be adjustable using color bars to deal with color drift.
I don't see the point in using the entire 2nd screen for the browser. Feels like such a waste of space.
You must not have a lot of clips. I usually put the Browser and Effects tabs on the second monitor and at times I'll turn my 24" Dell to portrait mode to display more clips in list mode.

ATI Radeon 9800 Pro and Apple Cinema Display compatibility

I'd like to buy an Apple Cinema Display for my 5-year-old Power Mac G5 with an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro, but I'm having trouble understanding what I can and can't hook up to my system.
I was thinking of getting a 30" display, but the Apple Store says I need a Dual-Link DVI, which I don't think my graphics card supports, but the Store also says I need an ATI Radeon 9650 or better, which I imagine the 9800 Pro is.
I've looked at the ATI site for data on the graphics card, but their online manual shows a completely different set of connections on the card. They show VGA and S-Video out ports that mine doesn't have.
Does my ATI Radeon 9800 Pro have dual-link? If so, can I use the 30" display? If not, can I still use the 30" display?
If I can't use the 30" display, are there any compatibility problems with the 23" Apple Cinema Display?

The 9800 is faster than the 9650, but it doesn't have a dual-link DVI port.
Make sure you were looking at the Mac section of ATI's site. PC and Mac versions of the same card may have different port configurations.
AGP cards with dual-link DVI, starting with the fastest:
ATI Radeon X800 XT 256MB (ADC, dual-link DVI) (Some reports of problems with Leopard)
<http://www.welovemacs.com/0831xeghr.html>
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra 256 MB (Two dual-link DVI)
<http://www.welovemacs.com/6613332.html>
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT 256 MB (Two dual-link DVI)
<http://www.welovemacs.com/6613441.html>
ATI Radeon 9650 XT (Single-link, dual-link DVI)
<http://www.mac-pro.com/ATI-Radeon-9650-256MB-for-G5-661-3593?sc=2&category=42>
ATI Radeon 9600 Pro PC & MAC Edition RoHS 256MB AGP (Single-link, dual-link DVI)

A 23" will work with any G5 card.

Help! Strange Problem with 23" Apple Cinema Display and Wireless Internet

For some reason, Safari runs much much slower on my housemates new 23" Apple Cinema Display than just on his new Macbook. He is running Tiger. We use Airport Extreme for house-wide wireless, and he has an Airport Express to connect to his printer. Here is what he wrote:
"Last night, I was watching videos on ABC.com --- not a problem to watch on my laptop screen (new Macbook) - very fast. Then, after dinner, I plugged in my external screen (Apple Cinema Display), and it was so slow and wouldn't load. I unplugged the screen, and it was lighting fast again, so I watched the videos on my laptop screen. This morning, I was plugged into the external monitor and the Internet was slow to check my email. I unplugged the screen, and it's lightning fast now on my laptop screen.
Does this make any sense??? Why would my external monitor affect the Internet speed? "

I am having a similar problem as well. When I attach my 23" cinema display to my MacBook core 2 duo, my connection to the internet immediately stops working. I have tested this several times and it happens every time I connect the Cinema Display to my MacBook. When I disconnect the Cinema Display, my internet connection works perfectly again. I'm stumped as to why this happens.
I have tried several different searches on the forums, but have found no other threads besides this one. I'm I won't have to suck it up and pay the $50 for the call to AppleCare support.

ATI Radeon 9250 / 23" Apple Cinema Display compatibility

I'm having trouble getting my video card to display properly on my 23" Apple cinema display.
My PC currently has a Diamond Multimedia ATI Radeon 9250 256MB/PCI card in it. The video card has DVI/SVGA/and TV-Out ports.
I'm able to display "ok" when I connect the Apple display to my machine via the DVI port. However, when I try to do something intensive - like watch a DVD, a lot of vertical interference bars appear across the screen. When I close the DVD, the vertical interference bars go away.
However, I'm able to watch a DVD just fine on an SVGA monitor attached to the graphics card with no interference patterns.
The video card is supposed to support DDC technology. I have the most recent drivers for the video card. I've also made sure to disable to the existing integrated Intel GMA 900 video card on the PC. The bios screen does show up on the Apple display.
Any suggestions of things to try before throwing in the towel and saying that this video card really isn't compatible with the 23" Apple cinema display?
If not, any suggestions of inexpensive ones that are?
Thanks,
John

This is not an uncommon problem. It's often called dancing pixels or noise/static, so you can search the topic for more info.
Some ATI video cards, with the latest ATI drivers installed, have the option to reduce DVI frequency or use alternate DVI operational mode. Check and see if your video card supports those options, and play around with them if so. Also, you can try using some third-party programs to create a new resolution profile with a refresh rate of 58 or 59Hz instead of the standard 60Hz.
If that doesn't work, I don't know what PCI card to recommend. They're all AGP or PCI Express now.
