Monitor does not come out of sleep Mac-Mini Mini-DVI to Dual DVI-D cable

I have an August 2009 Mac-Mini that I'm using with an Apple supplied Mini-DVI to DVI adapter along with a DVI-D Dual Link Cable connect to a Sceptre X7XV-Naga+ LCD monitor.
The monitor is going into sleep mode on its own with no way to disable this feature on the monitor itself. I've disabled sleep mode on the Mac-Mini in the power setting in System Preferences.
When in sleep mode and I move the mouse or press a key, the monitor will not come out of sleep mode. From other posts, I read that the issue might be that I wasn't using a Dual-Link DVI-D cable, so I bought one and installed such a cable. That has not resolved the problem. The monitor will not come out of sleep mode. When I have the monitor connected with a mini-display port to VGA adapter instead of a DVI-D cable, it will come out of sleep mode every time.

I know it's a year later, but I'm not finding much through search.
I have the same exact problem. Difference being I'm using an iMac with 10.7.5.
Same video board and monitor - ATI Radeon HD 6750M video card connected via DisplayPort to Samsing S24A850DW.
I've tried two different mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cables and no change.
I think I read that 10.8.3 might fix the issue. Anyone that can confirm that, or has another solution?

New 2012 Mac mini having screen resolution problem when I connect to either 27" LG or 22" Hannspree monitor. Tried mini display port to VGA/HDMI and HDMI to DVI-D cables... all same isse

New 2012 Mac mini having issues in connecting to third party Monitors. Connected my mac mini to a 27" LG monitor. Text looks blurred. Tried connecting to the monitor using 3 options. 1) mini port to HDMI, then HDMI cable to LG monitor. 2) Mini port to VGA, then VGA cable to monitor 3) HDMI port on mini mac to DVI-D cable then DVI to DVI cable... In all cases text is not clear. Anyone has similar issues with latest mini mac. The monitor works fine when I connect to a windows 7 Samsung laptop. Any input is highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance

Why do you use always 2 cables? There's a lot that can go wrong.
1.) Hardware:
- Use only one cable, best an HDMI->HDMI cable. It doesn't need to be an expensive one, they've proven to be no worse than those "esoteric", expensive ones.
- Set the monitor to the HDMI input.
- The modes you are listing are only "picture modes" changing color/brightness/contrast settings, not resolution or the likes, so pick the one you like best later, or enter your own settings under Custom.
2.) OS X:
- Usually the Mac detects the screen itself and chooses the best settings, so by default you need to do nothing than make a proper hardware connection to get a decent image.
- However, there have been issues with new Mac Minis and particularly their HDMI ports. But reportedly they have been fixed with a software update. So, launch the App Store and check under Updates if there is one for you to install. If so, do it; otherwise you should be good to go.
- If you require, go to System Preferences -> Displays. In the Dispaly tab, by default, "Best for display" should be selected, and that is typically true. If you want, select "Scaled" and 1920x1080, plus a frequency from the list (where higher is usually better, but just pick the one that works best for you). If you can't see a change to the better, you best go back to "Best for display".
- If you are not happy with the colors on your screen, you'll find eventually more than one choice in the Color tab, though your particular screen should be in the list and its Display Profile should get you the best result. (Double-check picture modes on your display: if you're far off there, you won't make it much better with the Mac's settings).

DVI splitter cable on 2 monitor setup

I set up my G5 with 2 monitors utilizing both ports on the graphics card. I want to add a Wacom Cintiq tablet which has a video display and am wondering if I can split the second port with a DVI splitter cable so I can have display on monitor 2 and the Cintiq.
1. Will it work?
2. Will it draw too much from the display adapter, thus causing it to fry?
3. Has anyone done this set up themselves?
TIA for the info!

Hi-
Two monitors are working the 9600 pretty hard.
Realizing that you probably want to get by on the cheap, I can't recommend a simple DVI splitter.
I don't think you will get satisfactory results.
Another issue is, with any type of device that uses a single port for multiple displays, is that the two connected monitors need to support the same resolution.
A DVI amplifier would provide the additional power and signal boost needed to run additional monitors.

Cant use DVI-D port with DVI-D cable from Pav 500-100a to HP W2207 monitor

I have a new Pav 500-100a factory standard with no mods. A HP w2207 monitor.
Currently connect fine with VGA to the DVI-D port with the adapter that came with the pc. I've setup Windows, updated to 8.1, put in my files from my old PC and all was well except video isnt that good.
I got a DVD cable form work but its a DVI-I cable. It took 5 mins before windows comes up and then whenever the background picture changed in the theme it hung for a few seconds. I read that I need a DVD-D cable which i purchasd today.
The packet says its a CL-DVI2M - DVI M/M 24+1 CABLE 2M. The tech in the shop says its a good calbe and will work fine.
When connected and I power up I get teh hp logo and rolling dots then it goes blank.
I reconnect teh VGA cable and its all fine - using the VGA to DVI adapter.
I ran msconfig and turned of safe boot - restarts and comes up fine in safe mode. I set the resolution to 1280x800 and restarted and reconnected the DVI cable - blank again.
If I put the VGA cable back in it boots fine. The monitor has been factory reset and seens the DVI connection but Windows remains blank. Also tried booting first with no cable - connect teh DVI and the monitor remains in sleep - power reset teh monitor and still blank also shows no DVO conenction.
I fI power up with DVI connected I can get to BIOS, and i see the HP logo and dots as Win 8 starts.
I dont know what else I can try. I have no other usable video card with DVI
Any ideas out there?
Pls help - Steve

Hi Steve,
Only connect one active video cable to the monitor and do not use any adapters.
Use a flashlight and examine the DVI connector on the monitor. Which DVI type is it?
Some of the older HP monitors have DVI issues so you might want to check with HP Support and see if you have one of those models.
An older post a long time back indicated that audio also had to be feed to the monitor (claimed by a poster). If this is indeed true then it's a monitor design flaw. So, you could use a native HDMI cable and test out that claim.

Mini-DVI extension cable?

Has there ever been such a thing as a mini-DVI extension cable?
I use an external monitor with my MacBook, so I have to use the mini-DVI to VGA adaptor. The problem is that I now have this big bulky VGA connector sitting on my desk just to the left of my MacBook.
I figured that I would simply go buy a mini-DVI extension cable that would allow me to get the VGA connectors off of my desk. However, I have searched all over the Internet and found that such a cable does not exist.
The only thing that comes close is a 1.8 meter Male-to-Male mini-DVI cable available from shentec.com (http://www.shentech.com/apmitomimato.html). But of course I need a Male-to-Female cable.
Since the mini-DVI connector is primarily only used by Apple, it would be nice if Apple would build and sell mini-DVI extension cables in 2 or 3 varying lengths.

Dang...
I tried to see if CablesToGo could make a mini-DVI extension cable and this was their reply:
{quote} +"Unfortunately we cannot build a cable like that. It is an Apple proprietary connection that we cannot obtain.+
+We apologize for any inconvenience. "+{quote}
I'll have to try some other companies...maybe newertech.com and Dynex. Anyone know of other companies that could make this cable?

Using DVI - HDMI cable output to Samsung LCD TV

For some reason, i have been using the DVI -> VGA Adapter with a VGA cable outputted to my new Samsung LCD TV, with resolution 1920x1080. I purchased a DVI -> HDMI Cable, but the quality/resolution is subpar to using the VGA Cable, it seems as if the resolution is upscaling itself, but according to Display Preferences, it is outputting at 1920x1080i, When i'm using the VGA cable it just says 1920x1080, without i or p.
Anyone know why?

I've been trying to communicate with a Samsung LE40A656 via a DVI-HDMI cable.
I think there must be issues with HDMI on that model because the TV can't detect a signal on the HDMI port and the MPB can't see a monitor.
But I have managed to get full screen via the Apple DVI-VGA adaptor and the D-sub port on the Samsung using the specification in this archive thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6400626&#6400626
Before I upgraded my TV I had a cheap(ish) Hyundai Vuon with a DVI port which worked fine with my MBP.
Would still like to know why HDMI doesn't work on the Samsung.

ADC to DVI connector cable - 2 for 1?

Will this cable enable me to run a data projector from the ADC port at the same time as the monitor attached to the DVI?
G5 Dual 2.5 Mac OS X (10.3.7)

Can I use the Belkin ADC to DVI Connector Cable to
connect one of the DVI displays to the ADC output on
the G5?
Yes.
If so, am I right in assuming that I still use the
Cinema Display power connector in addition to using
this adaptor cable?
Yes. The adapter just provides the digital video signals. You still need to plug in the power, USB, and FireWire (if needed) cables from the display
All the documentation seems to be restricted to G4s,
When the adapter came out the only ADC computers were G4s. They haven't updated the documentation, but it will work on a G5.

No signal message - Mac Mini - Samsung P2370HD - DVI-D cable

I just received my new Mac mini and want to connect it via DVI-D cable to my existing Samsung P2370HD monitor. I have a DVI-D to mini-DisplayPort adapter connected to the Mac Mini and then a long (3-5 ft) DVI-D male to DVI-D male cable connecting the adapter to my monitor. I have checked all connections but the monitor is giving me a "No signal" message. When I unplug the cable from the adapter, the monitor gives me a "Check signal cable" message, so it seems as if the signal is not making it through the adapter to the TV.
Can anyone offer advice? I really don't want to pay for a new monitor.

My brain finally kicked in, and I was able to get the monitor to work by using the mini-DVI to DVI cable included with the Mac Mini and connecting that cable to my DVI-D (male to male) cable. I am now getting a signal to the monitor. Guess I will be returning the Dual Link DVI to Mini Displayport adapter as it was not cheap!

DVI-I to DVI-D Cable?

I have two Macbook Pros, and I have one Dell flat-screen monitor. Right now, I hook up one Macbook Pro using the VGA adapter to the monitor. When I want to use my other Macbook Pro with the monitor, I switch the cables out. I know it's a small hassle, but I have to do it frequently, so it annoys me.
On the back of my Dell monitor, I see "Input 2", which is DVI-D. I realize I can toggle between the inputs on my monitor, so I'm thinking I can get a cable that hooks my second Macbook Pro to the DVI-D input, thus eliminating the need to switch cables out all the time.
Unfortunately, I'm new to the whole video display thing, so I'm not sure which cable to get. My Macbook has a female DVI-I port (unless my research has been misguided). The DVI-D port on my monitor is also female. So my assumption is that I need a male DVI-I to male DVI-D cable.
I just wanted to check with the experts on this forum before buying something that might not achieve the desired results (i.e., keeping both Macbooks constantly hooked up to the same monitor and toggling between the displays). This is the cable I was looking at:
http://www.startech.com/item/DVIVGAYMM6-DVI-I-male-to-DVI-D-male-VGA-male-splitt er.aspx
I realize it's a splitter, which does more than I need, but I couldn't find just a plain ol' male DVI-I to male DVI-D cable (I did look in the Apple store). Maybe I wasn't entering the right search terms into Google, though.
Any advice? Am I on the right track here? Would it be better to get a different cable and add some sort of adapter?
Thanks!

All you need is a DVI-D to DVD-D cable cable. A DVI-D plug will fit in a DVI-I connector.

MacBookPro DVI output to Monitor DVI-D input

Where can I find a compatible cable that will let me connect my MacBookPro (early 2008) to my ViewSonic VX2025 DVI-D input.
I have spoken to the Apple store staff, and the AppleCare support team, and neither departments could come up with a solution, or answer.
Please can somone point me in the right direction? I am sure one person out there has come across this issue before.
PS:
Before suggesting I use the VGA input on the monitor; this is in use by my Xbox 360 (which will not work using a VGA-DVI adapter).
Many thanks in advance for anyone who is able to help.
My email adress is not working so if anyone woulf like to get me via email, please send to [email protected]

You need the Apple Mini-DVI to DVI-D adapter, and a male-to-male DVI-D cable like one of these:

Dvi splitter cable will extend the screen?

Hi everyone, I have a MBP 8Gb RAM. I would like to go dual monitor and extend my desktop.
My Mac has a single video out port, specifically a Mini DisplayPort.
Using a dvi splitter cable will just give me the ability to extend it? Actually I'm on a single monitor and I'm keeping my mac shut on a BookArc stand.
If not, what should I use?
Thank you in advance.

If a DVI splitter works at all, it will only give you two external monitors that display exactly the same image, rather than an extended desktop.
The cheapest way to add a second monitor to your machine for extended-desktop use will be a USB video adapter like this:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/VIDU2DVIA/
Note that it is limited to a maximum of 2048 x 1152 resolution, and it won't be responsive enough (because of the slow USB connection) to use for action gaming, animation, etc. Use your other monitor for work that requires a highly responsive screen.

What DVI-D cable please for HP Pavilion?

I have just bought a new Pavilion 500-250ea desktop + Pavilion 22xi screen. Unfortunately the description 'desktop' seems to have been taken too literally by HP <g> - once the PS was in its storage under the desk, then the DVI-D cable supplied with the monitor was too short to reach it, so I shall have to buy a new longer one :-(
Both PC and monitor have dual-mode DVI-D sockets, but the supplied cable was just a single mode DVI-D. Does either/both device(s) actually support dual mode, or will single mode be sufficient for the new cable?

As your HP Pavilion 22xi IPS LED Backlit Monitor only supports up to 1920 x 1080 resolution, a DVI-D single link cable is sufficient for your application.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Single DVI connection to DVI - DVI - Y cable hook up

I have an HP Envy H8 1500 DT - with an AMD FX(tm)-6120- Six Core Processor running WIN 8.1 - and thought I could connect two DVI monitors to my one DVI port on this machine by using a DVI Y Cable. Both monitors work with the cable but the option in preference - says it can't detect two monitors? Do I need another device/adapter?
