How can I connect my 27 in display that has a Mini Displayport out (male) to my early 2011 MacBook Pro with a Thunderbolt in (female)??
I purchased a 27 inch display and am struggling to find a simple way to convert the Mini Displayport that leaves the display to my 13 inch MBP that has a Thunderbolt input? I cannot seem to find a simple adapter or cable. The Mini Displayport is connected to the display and cannot be removed. The mini displayport cable fits into the Thunderbolt plug....but does nothing. Any solution is appreciated!
It should work plugged into the Thunderbolt port. No adapter is needed. Is the plug pushed in all the way (no metal showing)?
Is the display's power cord plugged in to a power outlet?

I purchased a 3rd party mini displayport to hdmi adaptor. My 2011 macbook air with thunderbolt wont detect the display.
Is the display turned on? Sometimes it is the simplest of solutions, when details are missing.

I can't get my apple magic mouse to work on my boot camp,running Windows 7 Ultimate on my early 2011 macbook pro with latest Marveric OS........ It works perfectly on the Apple ,
Not sure if this will help anyone, but I had trouble installing on 10.8.
I then found this particular support page:

Be patient with the download, it takes some time ... When it has downloaded, follow the install instructions. It works well.
I use the printer through usb but my wife uses wireless from her PC laptop.

I have an Early 2011" macbook pro 13 inch (core i5 2.3ghz 4gb ram 320hdd) with Mountain Lion 10.8.2, and I want to connect it via Mini DP to HDMI connector, and a HDMI cable to a LCD TV LG 32LD340. When I had Lion OS, I had no problems at all.
If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

Can I hook up an early 2011 macbook pro to a new iMac AND another thunderbolt display?
I want to get a new iMac, and I have an early 2011 macbook pro. Can I use a two-way thunderbolt cable to hook these two up? If so, will I still be able to use full functionality on both as I move windows to and from one of them? (Like, I use my macbook track pad to move a safari window over to my iMac, and then I can either use my iMac mouse or my macbook's trackpad to do things with that safari window.
ALSO, is it possible to hook up an additional thunderbolt display to all of this? Basically my end-goal is to have a macbook pro hooked up to an iMac with an additional thunderbolt display, that's my "dream set-up" which will make a lot of stuff that I do a lot easeir and less crowded on one moniter.no the thunderbold display thing would let you use the imac as a monitor for the macbook apart from acting the role of display the imac would be dorment so a very pricy monitor

Can my Early-2011 Macbook Pro support dual DisplayPort monitors?
I have an Early-2011 Macbook Pro that Apple states can support two Apple Thunderbolt displays in series (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5219) but I can't find any information on running two DisplayPort displays in series. I assume that Thunderbolt uses DisplayPort 1.2 which includes the link capabilities but I am not sure as I don't really understand the difference between DP and TB that well.
The displays I would be looking at using are the Dell U2414H (http://accessories.ap.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=au&cs=aubsd1&l=en&s=bsd& sku=391-BBNC&redirect=1) which have DP in and out options.
Does anyone know if this will be possible? I don't really have a way to test this myself unfortunately.
Cheers.I'm curious if you got this configuration working as I'd like to use the same setup (early 2011 MacBook Pro 17" + dual Dell U2414H through daisy chaining the MacBook Pro Thunderbolt port through the monitor displayports).
Apple says you can only have a DisplayPort monitor (Mini Display Port in this case), at the end of the chain, with a Thunderbolt device in between. I'm hoping this is either outdated or just not fully supported but still works.

23. How do I connect my Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to my Thunderbolt-equipped Mac when I have other Thunderbolt devices connected?
When connecting a Mini DisplayPort display or a display using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to a Thunderbolt peripheral (except as described in question 24), make sure the display is connected at the end of the Thunderbolt chain. You can use only one Mini DisplayPort device in the Thunderbolt chain.
Note: Systems with more than one Thunderbolt port, like an iMac, can have more than one Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor connected with a Mini DisplayPort adapter connected as each Thunderbolt port can support one Mini DisplayPort display. -
I have a early 2011 Macbook pro 13 inch, I'm running Lion 10.7.4, and i want to upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion. Is it safe for my computer or are people experiencing problems with displays and Battery life?
Do Not post stuff about how Airplay doesnt work, because i dont have Apple TV and dont need to hear about it.If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

I have the new 2011 macbook pro, with lion preinstalled. I want to change the harddrive. I have backed up everything on time machine. when i put my new blank hard drive in will the lion screen startup.How do i get the lion dmg when i am already using lion
NicholasLiban -
When you use the Lion restore as described, it does a fresh install on the hard drive that you can select at the beginning of the process. This provides a complete install of the very latest version of Lion, including the recovery partition. The drive that you choose for the installation destination winds up like what you would have on a brand new computer from Apple.
