Does Yosemite support DisplayPort 1.2 to daisy-chain 2 monitors from a single Thunderbolt port?

Has anyone tried daisy-chaining two monitors from a single Thunderbolt port in Yosemite? DisplayPort 1.2 wasn't supported by Mavericks, but I'm hoping that might have been fixed with the new

Visibly not... I try daisy-chaining with my Dell U2414H on Yosemite but it doesn't work. Please Apple, Fix this...

  • Daisy chain monitor from cinema display MacBook Air 5,2

    I know the Mid-2012 MacBook Air is capable of 2 external displays as described here.
    The monitor works when plugged directly into the MBA, but not when daisy chained from the back of the cinema display.
    It's a dell monitor, and I'm using an Apple Thunderbolt-VGA adaptor.
    Is there something I'm missing? Thanks!

    As far as my question itself -- why does this happen? Has anybody had this issue on Lion and had it resolved on Mountain Lion?

  • Daisy Chain 2 cinema displays to thunderbolt port on iMac?

    Presently I have an iMac (mid 2011). I am running 2 cinema displays thru my 2 thunderbolt ports on my iMac. Is it possible to daisy chain these 2 additional displays to save a thunderbolt port? If so, how would be greatly appreciated.

    Only Thunderbolt displays are capable of being daisy chained.
    If you had one Thunderbolt Display and a Cinema Display then you could put the Thunderbolt Display first and then connect the Cinema Display into it, but it cannot be done with two Cinema Displays.

  • Does Yosemite support mac pro duel monitors?

    Does Yosemite on early 2008 mac pro support duel monitors to the extent to make one desk top?

    as long as that box is checked, each display is independent.
    If you want the original "Extended Desktop":
    Uncheck the box
    close the preference pane or switch to another and save changes.

  • Does Yosemite support Windows DFS

    Hi, Does Yosemite offer native support for Windows DFS ? I have used third party tools in the past like AdmitMac , is this still required ?
    Thanks guys
    Bob

    This is great news, since I have to integrate Macs and iOS in a Windows AD Network with DFS. Are the macs now able to use these windows printer pools also? I had problems with these some years ago with 10.6 or 7.
    Is there any documentation available to learn about the integration on these devices? Why is this kind of information so hard to find? Does Apple have documentation about it? Some years ago, there were these nice videos with hints and tips, but they are all gone.
    Any other resources of information?
    Thank you.

  • Does Yosemite support Blu-Ray disc and 4K playback on the iMac with a 4K player?

    If I plug a Blu-Ray or 4K player into an iMac, will Yosemite support playback?  What additional software is needed and available?

    It's hard to say considering Apple hasn't supported Blu-ray yet and the downloaded Blu-ray resources are really not what we exactly want. The most directly way is to install Mac Blu-ray player and Blu-ray drive. Macgo is the best now to support 4K Blu-ray and Yosemite.

  • DisplayPort 1.2 MST (Daisy Chaining) on 2013 MacBook Pros

    Hi,
    If I am not wrong, 2013 MacBook Pros support DisplayPort 1.2, and according to Wikipedia one of the features added in 1.2 is daisy chaining (emphasis mine):
    DisplayPort version 1.2 was approved on December 22, 2009. The most significant improvement of the new version is the doubling of the effective bandwidth to 17.28 Gbit/s in High Bit Rate 2 (HBR2) mode, which allows increased resolutions, higher refresh rates, and greater color depth. Other improvements include multiple independent video streams (daisy-chain connection with multiple monitors) called Multi-Stream Transport, facilities for stereoscopic 3D, increased AUX channel bandwidth (from 1 Mbit/s to 720 Mbit/s), more color spaces including xvYCC, scRGB and Adobe RGB 1998, and Global Time Code (GTC) for sub 1 µs audio/video synchronisation. Also Apple Inc.'s Mini DisplayPort connector, which is much smaller and designed for laptop computers and other small devices, is compatible with the new standard.
    However, on OS X Mavericks, daisy chaining is only supported for Thunderbolt displays and not displays that support DisplayPort 1.2, such as Dell U2713H.
    Is this a limitation of the hardware, or is this a feature that's not supported by Mavericks's DisplayPort drivers and could potentially be supported by Yosemite?
    Thanks.

    Daisy chain Dell u2713h
    Covered in another thread. Short version, Apple hasn't enabled support for it. If you run Windows it works great!. No support in Yosemite either.

  • Black Screen (~10sec) on login/logoff on daisy chained monitors

    Hey guys
    In my setup, I have 2 daisy chained Dell U2414H monitors on the DisplayPort output of my nVidia GTX 760 . They work mostly fine, but I'm getting a roughly 10 seconds delay (black screen) at login and logout. This seems to be an issue with the Intel iGPU, as described on the wiki here. However, the strange thing is, that the black screen only occurs when using both monitors in the daisy chain config (regardless of DP1.2 setting on second monitor). Using one monitor on either HDMI or DisplayPort and even using both, one on HDMI and one on DP, works perfectly fine.
    Any ideas? I might just end up buying an HDMI cable and be done with it, but I'd like to have as few cables going to my monitors as possible
    Thanks!
    This is my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    #disable Intel iGPU
    install i915 /usr/bin/false
    install intel_agp /usr/bin/false

    Mike
    The computer itself is really old so I have an onboard intel graphics chipset, I also read on the forum about a person who had problems with nvidia but when he installed the nvidia package everything was solved.
    I don't think there is something like this for intel?
    EDIT: Ow nice! I installed the package: xf86-video-intel    2.10.0-1 for X.org Intel i810/i830/i915/945G/G965+ video drivers and everything works like a charm, so it was a driver problem after all, never expected it.

  • [MBP 13" mid-2012] How to daisy chain monitors?

    I Have 1 Dell Ultrasharp U24H14 connected to my MBP with a miniDP to DP port cable (using the thunderbolt port on my MB)
    I only have 1 thunderbolt port on my MB.
    I'd like to have another Dell Ultrasharp U24H14 connected. Can I do this through daisy chain? So connect the second Dell Ultrasharp U24H14 with and DP cable to the other Dell Ultrasharp U24H14 monitor. One of the monitors go to my macbook using an DP to miniDP cable.
    Is that setup going to work?
    The monitors do support daisy chain. Does my macbook?
    If not, what should be the other possibilty to connect it? USB to HDMI or so?

    Wow, let's see. What won't get replaced? The screen? The drives? The fan? Some auxilliary cards, like the BT interface? A few screws?
    And then, lets hope those bits & pieces that were recycled really didn't get wet and don't fail down the line.
    Make sure you get some form of written proof that the thing will still have some form of warranty afterwards. AppleCare may be advisable if you don't have it already. Else cut your losses, sell it off for parts and get a new and unsullied one.

  • Does Yosemite support Highpoint RAID cards?

    Mac Pro, late 2010 12-core Westmere model with 24GB RAM.
    Just updated to Yosemite. Discoverd the Highpoint RocketRAID card is no longer recognized and peripherals using eSATA are not mounting. 
    I don't recall whether it stated a driver was installed on previous versions of OS X, however I do know that the RAID card was supported natively at that time and attempting to add drivers resulted in the card not being recognized.
    I've tried restarting, using a few RAID management tools from the vendors of peripherals I have, and updating the driver manually, and none have worked. Any suggestions?
    Does it matter that the RAID controller is listed on 3 lines in the System Info, or is this just a glitch?
    The Vendor ID is 1103.

    The model in my machine is the RocketRAID 644M. I've had no luck finding anything helpful online. From what I've seen this model should still be supported.
    When I first installed the 644M, I tried to install drivers from the included disk and that prevented the card from working. The drivers are part of the system, if I recall correctly, so installing drivers ends up pointing the device to the wrong driver files.
    I'm seeing this in the System Info Extensions pane:

  • Does yosemite support dual monitors

    I had dual monitors with Mavericks and prior, can't get it to support a second one now.
    Used both HDMI and MiniHd connections?

    What is a " I use a Mini H connector."
    Just what two monitors (e.g. resolution) do you have and how (what monitor inputs and adopters are used) are the connected.
    What model Mini?

  • Macbook pro does not support Final Cut Pro preview on external monitor?

    I have been editing on Final Cut Pro from my imac for approx 1 year with an external monitor attached with no problems. I recently bought a macbook pro, for Final Cut Pro editing, and discovered that the monitor does not work. The Final Cut Pro preview on the external monitor freezes and in the preview pane of FCP it flick between two images.
    I have been reading around some forums, and have seen a couple of people with the same problem.
    Anyone have a suggestion on how to run the external monitor with FCP?
    Thanks!

    You have probably already done it but ensure you have updated the OS and Quicktime prior to attempting to instal Final Cut Studio.
    I recently had a hard drive crash and after installing the new hard drive it would not read the OS installation disc. I ended up using an external drive case and installed the OS on the drive from a different Mac Book, then reinstalled the hard drive in the other Mac Book. Then it booted right up. I updated all the original software before attempting to install any additional software.
    Everyone kept saying it wouldn't install due a possibly defective optical drive and I can't say why but it wasn't the drive. As soon as I had the system up and running again the optical drive functioned flawlessly.
    I hope this helps you.

  • Best Setup? Daisy Chain WPN824N from Cisco e2000 N Router or use Netgear 600

    *NOTE* Two things I'm thinking about as I write this... 802.11 N @ 5 GHZ (2 different approaches) not faster than G @ 2.4 and could I lose strength chaining a G and N router vs. one dual band router... Also, I think I'm answering my own question as I write this... :rolleyes:)
    I appreciate any advice!!! I originally setup the WPN824N dedicated to G @ 2.4 GHZ chained from Cisco E2000 dedicated to N @ 5 GHZ. (So $150 already here).
    I picked up a Netgear 600 on a whim 2 days ago ($85 and could return). Of course BB told me I'd get a stronger signal and better streaming from this to all devices (most important to me is Apple TV and IPad, but I only use it for free Netflix 99% of the time and I don't believe you get many Hi-Def options). Thinking about it, can the 600 actually operate a full speed N network while supplying G? Does it drop to lowest speed like some? Again, BB told me it would send N speed and G speed simultaneously... Odd for $85???
    Here's what I'm running...
    1) Hardwired PC as a backup and Media Server (Itunes & DVD Burner)
    2) Two T61 Lenovo Laptops (Win 7) - 802.11 G - General Use
    3) Ipad - Sometimes Netflix, Pandora, etc. - 802.11 N 5GHZ (Near full strength signal but short distances - normal with 5 GHZ)
    4) Apple TV - 802.11 N - Full Signal Strength  (80% streaming - 50' through cabinet and one wall; 20% hardwired)
    5) Ipod Touch 4 - Pandora, Web Surfing, Apps
    6) Iphone 4 - Pandora, Web, Apps
    Speed tests appear to be staying steady between the two different router setups; the Ipad, Iphone and Ipod with 11 - 12 Mbps and the laptops with 20 Mbps coming from a Comcast 20 Mbps line. I tried the upgrade to the 30 Mbps line and experienced no improvement.
    Specifically, with only a 20 Mbps line should I expect to lose speed and/or signal strength in a chained setup vs the one dual band router?
    If so, is it odd the dual band router isn't faster than chained with current settings. Maybe the 600 needs tweeked?
    I don't mind keeping the 600 if it could truly make a difference but after a day and a half, I don't believe I'm seeing a difference. There could be a number of other factors that I'm missing, so that is the real meat of the question. Aside from simplicity, are there other things I should consider before going back to the chained setup?
    Surprisingly, the cheap 824N maintains a strong, consistent signal and speed. However, I'm not seeing any improvement in speed from the dedicated Cisco Router for N @ 5 GHZ like I had expected. I thought N capable devices would really benefit from removing so much interference. I'm in a Condo and the devices consistently see the same 6 or so networks. Net Stumbler shows about 16 networks, almost all 2.4 GHZ G networks.
    My thinking was the Netgear 600 could possibly produce a strong, faster signal to both G and N devices. It seems odd to me that the laptops max out the 20 Mbps download but neither setup pushes the Apple devices past an average of 12 Mbps, especially the Ipad.
    Please share your thoughts on this. I'm getting OCD over this and I'm tired of deciphering and trying to tie together information "close" to my questions but none of them specific to what I'm looking for.
    Thank you!!!!!

  • Daisy chain monitors and hard drive

    How can I connect two additional monitors and an external hard drive to my iMac?

    Only Thunderbolt allows for chaining Displays and External Hard Drives.
    In addition your Thunderbolt devices must have an additional Thunderbolt port to chain the next device to.
