Satellite A205: Dynadock - How to connect to LCD TV with HDMI to DVI cable

I recently purchased this product and had a problem when connecting it to my LCD TV.
I used a HDMI to DVI cable to connect it to the TV. Only a small portion of the full display shows on the TV.
I have adjusted all setting on the laptop (Satellite A205) but it only adjusts the laptop screen, not the TV.
I also used the adaptor to VGA, plugged it into the computer input on TV, same effect. I can use VGA output on side of laptop to TV ok.
Any ideas on how to adjust dynadock output settings?

First of all it would be interesting to know what dynadock you have exactly; one with DVI port or one with VGA port?
>I have adjusted all setting on the laptop (Satellite A205) but it only adjusts the laptop screen, not the TV.
You should know that the dynadock has a own built-in graphics controller and video drivers to control the video stream.
Therefore you should change the settings directly in the dynadock settings and not on the laptop!!!

How do I connect Monitor without HDMI (but DVI-D) to laptop with micro-HDMI?

I have a Samsung NP900x400D-A02US laptop... the video connections are:
- a micro-HDMI
- a "monitor port" (which the manual says supports 15 pin D-Sub interface.. or you can connect VGA adapter),
I would like to buy the Dell Ultrasharp u2412M which has 1900x1200 resolution.... BUT it does not have an HDMI port. It has:
- a display port
- VGA input
- DVI-D with HDCP Input
- USB ports (but I don't think it's the kind that will allow me to hook up thge monitor to the laptop with USB)
How the heck do I connect the 2 of these... in a way that retains the 1900x1200 resolution? if I can't find a good way I might have to find another monitor with HDMI....
Thanks so much for your help! It's a bit frustrating to sort through it all....

I ended up finding it by item #, because I would have missed it, too. I wasn't sure if the product image was correct until I saw this:
Connector on First End: 1 x HDMI (Micro Type D) Male Digital Audio/Video
You got it figured out. Hooks up exactly like you said. HDMI and DVI will result in same picture quality, but as you mentioned, HDMI doesn't carry audio. They are the same, for all intents and purposes, in all other regards.
The DVI cable should have thumbscrews on each end, to help secure it at each end. The Adapter I linked has 'receptors' for the thumb screws, so the connection will be secure. The monitor should have the same 'receptors' for thumb screws. The weakest point of the connection, physically, will be the Micro-HDMI, so just be careful to not put pressure on that connection.

Does Mac Mini's HDMI-to-DVI cable support analog DVI monitors?

The Apple website shows that the new (late 2012) Mac Mini comes with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable in the box :-)
The DVI video connector standard supports both analog and digital video signal modes, but not all models support both modes.
I have an old PC monitor with a DVI connector, which is probably analog only. Will this work with the new (late 2012) Mac Mini?
In other words: does Apple's HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable support all DVI monitors, or only those with a digital input?
Many thanks!
- Martin

Your right about the DVI standard support both analogue and digital. The three types are
DVI-A (analogue only)
DVI-D (digital only)
DVI-I (supports both)
In this case the HDMI to DVI adaptor will only support digital DVI. This is because the HDMI port only supports digital.
Generally monitors with a DVI port support digital DVI, if you compare the socket and pins layout on the monitor to the one on the Mac adaptor if they are the same layout then that should indicate the monitor indeed supports digital DVI.
Note: The maximum resolution supported by the Macs HDMI port is 1920x1200, if your monitor supports a higher resolution then you should get a Mini Displayport to DVI adaptor or if needed a Mini Displayport to Dual Link DVI adaptor (for the highest resolutions).

How do i connect my mac mini to a kvm switch using the hdmi to dvi adapter?

I want to connect my Mac Mini using the HDMI to DVI adapter to a KVM switch cable. I have an Iogear KVM switch. The cable from the KVM switch has a male VGA end connection. I have been trying to determine the right adapter to connect the female DVI connection to the male VGA connector. I will be using the Mac mini and a PC running through the KVM switch. This is doable as the iogear switch is compatible with both a PC and a Mac. Any ideas out there? Thank you.

You would need to get HDMI or DVI to VGA CONVERTER, not a simple adopter. The converter requires USP connection for power. HDMI is only digital while VGA is analogue.

Does anyone know if the HDMI to DVI Adapter that comes in the Mac Mini box is DVI end male or female?

Does anyone know if the HDMI to DVI Adapter that comes in the Mac Mini box is DVI end male or female? Should I be getting a male to male DVI cable, or will this one work out of the box? Thanks!!

Looking at mine - the DVI end is female.

2011 Mac Mini and Acer x222w monitor incompatible? HDMI to DVI adapter issue

I am totally bummed because I just bought a new Mac Mini thinking I'd be able to use the display from my old system, an Acer x222w, which has both DVI-D and VGA connections. I hooked the monitor up using the HDMI to DVI adapter included in the box with the Mini. On boot, I could see the Apple logo, though it was not centered, and when the set up screen came up to the select language screen, it flashed quickly and then turned to snow.
I was on the phone with Apple support for over an hour trying to troubleshoot this issue. I was a little disappointed that tech support didn't even seem to be aware that the Mini came with an HDMI to DVI adapter. It was then recommended that I try an adapter for the mini display port, which the 2011 Mini doesn't have.
I was able to borrow another monitor, a Dell with DVI-D, and it worked.
I have searched for specs/requirements that might explain why the Acer monitor doesn't work while the Dell one does. I cannot find anything from Apple. I just assumed any DVI connection would work. Has anybody else encountered this problem? Most of the issues I've found on the forums involve trying to hook up to a home theater LCD TV, which I'm not trying to do. If I had known my monitor wouldn't work, I probably would have just saved up for an iMac.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or tips!

Mac Mini Newbie + Viewsonic VX2450WM monitor. Need HDMI to DVI adapter? What cords needed?

Mac Mini Newbie here.
Getting the Viewsonic VX2450WM monitor for it. There is no HDMI on this monitor, but reviews said it's Mac mini compatible.
Do I need to get an additional cord? HDMI to DVI adapter cable? Does the supplied short white cord inside Mac Mini packaging suffice?
Thank you!

No, the HDMI on Mini only support digital VGA is analogue
Can the HDMI port drive analog displays (VGA displays for example) using adapters?
No. The HDMI port will drive digital connections—such as DVI—using the adapter that came with the Mac mini, but cannot be used for analog displays such as VGA. You can purchase a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter separately to drive analog displays.

Mac mini display is flicking via HDMI to DVI adapter and DVI cable

i have received mac mini server (mid 2011) recently. mac mini is connecting the display via HDMI port using DVI cable with a HDMI to DVI adapter.
the display shows constant flicking. white dots/lines show randomly. it is like those signal noise when watching analog TV.
the same display works fine and well with macbook pro (early 2008) via DVI port.
please help. please advise.

So you know the display is working.
It seems to me you have a few possible problems.
1 HDMI-DVI cable is bad
2 DVI-cable is bad
3 Connections between cables or computer or monitor are bad.
4 HDMI port on the computer is bad.
I assume you've tried #3, and re-connected cables and wiggled inputs. So then try replacing 1 and then replacing 2 which are cheaper fixes than replacing/fixing 4.........
FYI, I'm connect my mac mini using the same setup you describe, with no issues....also inspect the cable ends carefully to look for any problems.

Static using HDMI to DVI adapter on 2011 mini

Hi,
I bought my first Mac last week, the i5 2.3ghz mini. I originally set it up on my TV (using HDMI), downloaded/installed the updates, and messed around a bit before deciding that a 42 inch display isn't as convenient as I thought it would be.
Using the HDMI to DVI adapter that came with the mini I hooked it up to my 19 inch acer monitor. While booting can see the boot screen, but the display is very staticy. Once it logged in I was able to barely see well enough past the static to mess around with the display settings thinking that maybe the mini was trying to push an unsupported resolution to my monitor (because I set it up on my TV at 1080p).
I read up on the issue and it seems that some have had problems with static while waking up from sleep. Mine has static all the time.
By a stroke of luck I happened to have a HDMI to DVI cable on hand. I tried it out and it displayed beautifully. No static, works as I expected.
So the problem seems to be the adapter that came with the mini, the DVI cable that I was originally using (the cable works with my PC), or the HDMI port on the mini itself not working well with Apple's own adapter (not likely).
I was just wondering if anybody else has had this issue, and if they fixed it did it end up being the adapter or did replacing the DVI cable with a higher quality cable do the trick.
Thanks,
Corey

I just posted a similar issue here. The weird thing is that on my system, a Dell monitor works with the HDMI-DVI adapter but the Acer monitor doesn't. Do you think getting another adapter would resolve it fo rme? What kind worked for you?

Mac mini HDMI to DVI adapter cable

The new Mac mini comes with a HDMI to DVI adapter cable. Typically these (Apple) adapter cables are also available for sale separately however at the moment no other Apple device (if one ignores the Apple TV) would need this cable and as every 2010 Mac mini already includes the cable it is it seems not listed on the Apple store.
As I am interested in getting more of these adapter cables, does anyone know if there is an Apple part number for them, or even an Apple service part number?

Be careful what you read and with your answers. The OP is inquiring about an HDMI to DVI adapter, not a DVI to HDMI adapter. They are two very different devices! Although HDMI and DVI are electrically equivalent, some adapters work in only one direction, so you cannot always just turn it around and run it the other way.
John, there are HDMI to DVI adapters available from 3rd parties. Be careful that it has a return policy and a warranty. Some adapters are not to the standard and are not functioning as expected. I have been happy with Monoprice products, but have no experience with this particular adapter that you seek.
Currently the Apple Store has two Belkin adapters. If Apple sells it, it usually works well.

HDMI and DVI port not working on 880GMA-E35

Hello,
I want to use the HDMI port of my 880GMA-35, but the monitor is not getting a signal. I know that the board has two jumpers to switch between the DVI and the HDMI port. In the delivery state the jumper is set to HDMI, but I don't get a signal. There is also no signal, if I switch the jumper to the DVI pins. I have tested this setup which different cables (HDMI and DVI) and two different monitors.
After this test I get a guarantee replacement of the board. The new board is also not working with HDMI or DVI. The VGA port of the first board was working as supposed and I don't see any Bios settings to activate the monitor ports.
Are there any suggestions to solve my problem?
Thanks in advance and kindly regards
Daniel

Mac Mini (Mid 2011) display artifacts HDMI to DVI at native res

Hello,
I recently changed monitor configurations and in the process moved my Mac Mini (Mid 2011) to a HP LP2065 monitor. The connection is made through the stock supplised HDMI to DVI adapter.   The monitor and the DVI cable work successfully with other machines.
What occurs is only certain colors, usually black, result in the display being red and/or sparkling and/or static (like TV static) when the monitor is set at its native resolution of 1600x1200.
If I bump the resolution down to 1280x1024, or lower, the black color returns and I see no display glitches.   If I bring the resolution back up to 1600x1200, the display artifacts return.
A few google searches suggest I use a DisplayPort to DVI adapter instead as some monitors are "finicky".   Does anyone agree with that? It seems peculiar to me -- why would a digital signal have analog-looking glitches?
Any ideas welcome.. thanks for reading

Your monitor has a native pixel resolution of 1920x1200. There is no point in trying for 1080-p or -i.
I run two 1920x1200 monitors via HDMI (with passive cable adapters where necessary) and I use these choices:
...and they are both pixel-sharp, filling the screen, and yet menu bars totally visible!

HDMI to DVI to VGA to Monitor?

I just purchased a Mac Mini and totally forgot that Apple upgraded to Mini DisplayPort (I still have the mini-vga to vga cable on my MacBook).
So what next? Do I have to buy a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter? Or can I somehow hook up the Mini to my VGA monitor with the HDMI to DVI adapter that I got in the box?
Also, I have one of these, but it doesn't seem to fit in the DVI:

Using DVI to VGA adaptor with HDMI to DVI port on Mac Mini Server

Hi - I couldnt find anything on this, so I decided to post a new topic. We just recently purchased a Mac Mini server at work for iOS development. Before we launch in in one of our data centers and start remoting into the system, we need to conduct basic setup on the system.
For this, we pulled out an old stock VGA montior we have around the office, and found an apple DVI to VGA adaptor (http://i51.tinypic.com/2mzb4lc.jpg)
The problem is, the pins dont exactly line up... on the DVI to VGA adaptor there are 2 extra pins above and below the horzontial pin on the left hand side (http://i52.tinypic.com/2mxhg1j.jpg) that do no exist on the Mac Mini HDMI to DVI adaptor (http://i53.tinypic.com/2ywesrp.jpg).
Ive checked other converters and it seems that all of them are setup the same way, with two pins above and below.
Has anyone else had to deal with this issue? I really dont want to go and buy the Mini DisplayPort to VGA adaptor for one-time use.
Thank you!

Welcome to  Discussions!
What you are seeing is the difference between an analog and digital DVI connector, as DVI as a specification can provide both types of signal, depending on implementation. When used in a mode where only one or the other type of signal is provided, the different connectors prevent a mismatch. VGA being analog, the DVI to VGA adapter is using an analog DVI connector. The other connector you are dealing with is a digital only connector. HDMI is digital only, hence the HDMI to DVI adapter being digital only. Thus you can not adapt from the HDMI port to VGA with just passive adapters, you would need a conversion device between. It would be cheaper and more effective to use a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter.
