How do i connect a dell monitor u2715h to my macbook pro late 2013?

How do I connect a Dell monitor U2715H to my MacBook Pro. The only drivers provided are for Windows.

THanks, James. My daughter suggested I just plug in my new monitor since Macs often don't need as much driver support as Windows machines. Sure enough, that's all I had to do.

  • How to clean install os x on macbook pro late 2013 using usb (offline) (without recovery direct download)

    hi,
         Im trying to clean install OS X from last month using inbuild recovery partition method. Due to slow internet connection Im unable to complete the installation. I tried many times using this intallation process but it failled to complete the installation. My internet connection is steady but due to "time out" the whole installation process is skiping. So Im not able to use my brand new macbook pro late 2013 from last month beginning. Please provide an alternative solution to install os x.

    For several years now, Apple has acted as if everyone on the planet has high speed Internet access. That is obviously not the case for many people, and for them installing or reinstalling any OS X version since Lion has been a problem.
    I can only suggest that you take your MacBook Pro to a location that has a faster, publicly accessible Internet connection and download it there. An Apple Store would be ideal, but if that is not an option, a public library may offer high speed Internet, as do many hotels, coffee shops, or similar locations where you may have to pay a small fee.
    When the download completes, you can copy the Install OS X Mavericks icon to another folder or an external storage device such as a flash drive, where it will remain available to use again, as often as you wish. Do that before proceeding with the Mavericks upgrade, otherwise the installer will erase the file.
    The installer icon resembles the following
    (Launchpad)
    The following will also appear in /Applications:
    Copy that to another location, such as Documents, by holding an option key while you drag it there.
    Of course, every time Apple releases an OS X update you will need to download another, rather large file.

  • How do I upgrade to Mavericks from Lion with a Macbook Pro late 2011?

    How do I upgrade to Mavericks from Lion with a Macbook Pro late 2011?

    Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store.
    If you meet the Mavericks requirements then you can install Yosemite at no charge.

  • How can I split an external monitor's screen on MacBook Pro

    I have a MacBook Pro with TWO external monitors.  When maximizing a program on one of the external monitors it expands across BOTH screens. When I do the same thing on my Windows 7 system the program is contained to the monitor it is being displayed on. (Pretty smart of that PC to know which monitor I'm working on!) So HOW can I get the Mac to do the same thing? Is there a 3rd party utility that can identify multiple monitors?  I'm using a Matrix DualHead2Go to connect the two external montors to the Mini-DVI port on the Mac.
    Thanks!!

    I'm using a Matrix DualHead2Go to connect the two external montors to the Mini-DVI port on the Mac
    The behavior you describe in Windows is exactly how much multiple display system works but I have two graphics cards capable of driving two displays each. I believe you have identified the problem in the above sentence. I believe that the Mac sees the Matrix device as a single display and not the two displays themselves. With the two external monitors attached, open System Preferences and select the Displays tab. If the Mac OS sees the displays as two separate displays you should see a dialog in each of the monitors and on your MacBook Pro. If I am correct you won't see three display dialogs, you'll only see two, one on the Mac and one on one of the two external displays.

  • How do I connect an external video camera to my MacBook Pro.

    Our school has an indoor graduation ceremony and has a live video feed of the proceedings brodcast from the gymnasium to the overflow seating in the auditorium. I want to connect a video camera that has RCA outputs to my MacBook Pro, have the video show on the screen, mirror it to Apple TV in another room of our school and project the picture onto the auditorium's movie screen. I know that I could just hold up an iPad for two hours, but it would be nice to have a better zoom and a smoother pan than a handheld device. Any ideas of what I would need to connect a video camera with RCA outputs to my MacBook Pro?

  • Connecting a 144hz monitor to 15'' retina macbook pro?

    Hi, I recently bought the benq xl2411z 24'' monitor which has the capacity to run in 140hz as opposed to 60hz. I have been told that you cannot run 144hz in OSX but you can do it in Windows (bootcamp),
    Right now the screen is connected via HDMI; however, I have been told that HDMI is incapable of running 140hz and that I need to use DVI.
    So basically, I'm wondering what is the best way to connect the external monitor to run 144hz?
    Thanks!
    BTW I have a mid 2014 retina macbook pro 15'' with intel iris pro (not discrete graphics).

    Thanks for the reply, I eventually figured it out on my own. But for anyone else looking into this, yeah you need a Mini DisplayPort to Dual Link DVI converter (the expensive one, not just the Mini Displayport to DVI). It does run 144Hz which is good. In my case I have a eGPU I was building, so in the end I didn't need the adaptor after all; but for most people you'll need the adaptor if you want to connect a high refresh rate monitor directly to your MPB.

  • How can i connect my IMessage into the Mountain Lion (MacBook Pro)

    I'm trying to enable receving my Imeesages in my MacBook Pro but I don't know how, Wish someone can help me.

    Open Messages from the applications folder, the Lauchpad, or your dock if it's setup there.  Go to Messages, Prefereces ..... and select accounts.  Your Apple ID should be already setup.  If it's not you can add it.  If you use more than one ID and it's the wrong one, you can delete the account from messages by going to Account Details and Sign Out.  Then, add the Apple ID you want to use.
    It appears that the syncing with iPhones is only working if you use your Apple ID email as the "Caller ID" on the iPhone and that the sync up with your phone number may not be happening until iOS 6 comes out this fall.  I'm not sure though.  I just know that mine isn't syncing with messages sent to my phone number and from other posts, it appears that other people are having the same issue.
    I hope that helps get you going.

  • New Macbook Pro (Late 2013) Continuously Loses Internet Connection

    My new macbook pro is constantly losing internet connection.  I have already:
    1) Replaced my home modem and router (just in case)
    2) Troubleshot the home internet with ISP - they say it is not on their end.
    3) Run through a million resets of the home internet system
    4) Checked to see if other computers are losing internet (No, it seems to be only this computer affected)
    5) Done diagnostics with Apple on two separate occasions (This did no good)
    Now the interesting thing here is that I thought at first it might be a hardware issue with the internal mac modem on the computer.  That is also what apple was suspecting...  HOWEVER, whenever this happens, if I reset the PRAM everything is fine again for 3-7 days.  You would think this would not be the case with a hardware issue, right?  (It is important to note here that apple said PRAM reset wouldn't change anything - but it clearly does)
    I have seen posts saying the antenna could be bad when others have had this problem, but again, if PRAM reset works, you wouldn't think it was the antenna, right?
    This is driving me crazy and it is a new machine.  I am also in a situation where I don't want to be without it for days to have it repaired so any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be helpful.
    I have considered that it might be a profile issue (I did migrate another profile to this machine), but again that seems unlikely.
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!  Thanks much!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Connecting HP Pavilion 23xi to a Macbook Pro late 2013

    I have just bought a HP Pavilion 23xi monitor as an addition for my Macbook Pro 13in Retina Display late 2013 model. I am wondering and needing to know the best way to successfully connect them both together. Please note I am using the pre-release version of the OS X Yosemite, if that makes a difference which I hope it doesn't.

    Yes, I see now. The model number did not register in the old mind correctly.  The  Pavilion 23xi uses D-Sub, DVI, HDMI for connections.  I would recommend the DVI, which means you need " a DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter (sold separately)"  copied directly from the Mac webpage HERE

  • I have an apple macbook pro late 2013 15" retina display crashing on me when i am connected to an external display?

    I got the following message after the crash, it happens a few times a day, my system is the base with 16gb ram late 2013 15" macbook pro retina.  it only happens when i am connected to an external display, I do have a converter from vga to displayport.  also, i run 4 different browsers in incognito mode as i do web testing and also have about 30 tabs open and excel and a few other apps open, not sure if this is what makes it happen or if it is the external display?  it is under warranty, so if you see anything below that may relate to the hardware i can bring it in and get it fixed.

  • Macbook Pro (late 2013) drops connection

    I purchased my MBP 13 inch (late 2013) in November. Just recently my internet connection randomly drops when I either open a specific webpage or just randomly cuts off. The wifi signal aleways appears to be on, but I can't open any webpages and ping (on terminal) always shows an error when the signal cuts off. The only temporary way to solve this is to restart my computer. However, this happens almost every hour and it gets extremely annoying. I've tried it with multiple networks and wireless connections— all have the same symptoms. Should I go to the Apple Store to get my MBP replaced or is there a fix?

    Did you try Renewing the DHCP lease?

  • How do you connect 3 HDMI monitors to the new Mac Pro running Maverics. HDMI to thunderbolt adaptors only support 2 displays. The fine print in Apple docs HT 5918 indicate  the Mac Pro will only support 2 HDMIs.  Anyone found a workaround?

    I am trying to connect 3 HDMI displays to a Mac Pro.  I am using a HDMI to thunderbolt adaptor and can only get 2 of the 3 displays to work.
    Does anyone know of a work around.
    Is there a systems configuration varaible for type of display?

  • How can I connect a Motorola H500 headset on a MacBook Pro w/Leopard

    I used this device last year without a problem. The device is working, but not with this computer. I tried to setup again, and again, and... so. Can somebody help me?

    Use an external blu-ray drive and a third-party program. Here is a detailed tutorial for your reference - http://www.ideerapp.com/How-to-play-blu-ray-disc-on-mac.html    Follow the steps and you will watch a blu-ray dvd on Mac Pro easily.
