HT4614 Is there a Thunderbolt to HDMI adaptor for an external monitor?

I use a mid-2011 13" MacBook Air.  My external Samsung Monitor (Synchmaster P2450) has started flickering.  It might be the Belkin minidisplay port > HDMI adaptor or some conflict with Thunderbolt (same port).   Should I invest in a new Belkin adaptor or is there a Thunderbolt>HDMI connector that might work?

That's interesting, because I have seen a few people post here regarding reliability of these connectors. I have a Belkin HDMI adapter, and have not had a problem with it. But, seeing that a few people have reported problems leads me to ponder the same question as yours.
I bought the Belkin more recently, as the one I originally purchased (a Kanex) didn't have audio support at the time I bought it, as the Macs didn't have it either. So I bought the Belkin when audio became fully supported by both Apple and the adapter makers. Both adapters still work without issue.

  • Is there a firewire to HDMI adapter for IPAD 4?

    Is there a firewire to HDMI adapter for IPAD 4?

    It's called the "Lightning" connector. Here is the adapter you need:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter
    The Lightning Digital AV Adapter mirrors exactly what you see on your device so that everyone in the room can enjoy it on your widescreen TV, video projection screen, or other HDMI-compatible display. The Lightning Digital AV Adapter also supports video out for watching movies, TV shows, and more.
    You can also stream wirelessly using AirPlay but that requires Apple TV. Streaming music or other audio requires an AirPort Express or compatible device.

    You have Macbook of some kind and it has two Thunderbolt ports.  Which port do you use first for an external monitor/projector?

    By the way, I have tried shutting of the display switching in the power settings.  That was basically the only real answer I found anywhere.  It didn't work.

  • HT3382 With a MacbookAir (mid-2012) using a mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter plugged into the Thunderbolt port, can you configure the external monitor to FULLY display in portrait mode yet keep the built-in display in landscape mode?

    With an 11"-inch Macbook Air (mid-2012) using a mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter plugged into the Thunderbolt port:
    Can you configure an extended desktop with an external monitor (20") displaying full portrait mode (1200 x 1600 resolution) and keep the built-in display in landscape?
    I'd like to see something like
    External monitor / Built-in display

    Yes, I can't see why not.
    Just give it a try and report back if you have a problem.

  • Is there a way to connect and view an external monitor only on my Intel iMac?

    I have an Acer 15.6" monitor connected to my Intel iMac via VGA cable and Mini-DVI to VGA adapter. I am running Lion (V10 7.3) and would like to direct my image to the external display only. The preferences pane does not offer that option. Is there some way to do it?

    Do you have a desktop machine running iTunes?
    If so then yes, setup home sharing and you can stream anything in your iTunes library to your iPad.
    It works good.

  • My Thunderbolt to HDMI connection isn't working anymore.

    I've had my MacBook Pro for about a year now (2.4 GHz i5), and I've been using a Thunderbolt to HDMI adaptor to connect to my Sharp 32" LCD with no problems since I bought it...until this week when I updated all my software/OS.  Now, I can connect, the displays prefs see the monitor, but all I get is black.  No sound either...even though the sound prefs recognize the HDMI connection.
    I know the problem isn't the cable.  It used to work, and it still actually connects this same laptop to my projector...but it won't display on my TV anymore. I even get sound on my projector.  It works like my TV used to.  The problem started with the update, so I want to know what changed...and when Apple plans on fixing it.  These are not cheap computers...I am kind of embarassed that I have to use my gf's $350 Acer to play Netflix on our TV when I have this multimedia monster gathering dust.
    This problem is extremely frustrating, and I've been doing some research on it.  It seems like quite the problem for a lot of people!  There are multiple unresolved discussions on here about it (some of them over 40 pages long!) and I can't really believe Apple isn't dealing with this.  It's been years now since this started happening, I guess. 
    We're mac users...we need multiple displays, and we need this stuff to keep working when we update!  That's why we've made Apple into the richest corporation in the world.  Step up superstars...fix this!
    Again (just to be clear) I know the problem isn't the cable, so don't tell me to go get a different one, or that it's the issue.  Me and my gf basically wore out Netflix with this very laptop and cable up until this week, and I've never had an issue with it..ever, until this update (to OS 10.7.5).  Everything is in good shape, and if the laptop/computer is still feeding to my projector just fine...there's something else going on here, and I think a lot of people would love to know what it is.  I am not the only person this is happening to, and it's been years since people have been begging Apple to fix this!
    I hope that Apple looks into this and puts these discussions to rest.  There are a lot of them!  Do a search!  The "More Like This" box on the right here is FULL of very similar UNRESOLVED discussions.  This should be a priority.  You've all made enough money off us...now make your stuff work like it's supposed to and close these threads!

    No, I am a media professional who uses his MacBook Pro to connect to external monitors, and needs to continue to do so.  I don't want Apple TV.  I want my laptop to work again, like it's supposed to.  Like it used to. 
    I have a demonstration this week at work that requires me to plug into an LCD screen and I am hoping to have this resolved by then.  I am trying to convince my department to buy a Retina Mac and thousands of dollars worth of video software for live shows, and if I can't make it work, then I can't exactly convince them (or myself) to buy what I have been researching.
    Again, I don't want wireless video or Apple TV.  I don't want to buy any more stuff.  I want to know why my Thunderbolt to HDMI cable stopped working after my update, and how to fix it...preferably before this meeting.

  • Mini displayport HDMI adaptor doesn't work

    I bought a mini display port to HDMI adaptor for my Macbook Pro. But every time i plug it into my tv it only shows the default purple sky background and none of my actually stuff. I don't know why it's doing this. can anyone help?

    It's working.  That's called extended desktop mode.  Grab and app on your desktop and drag it off the right side of the screen.  It will appear on the other monitor.
    You can mirror your displays by pressing CMD F1.
    All these settings are in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement tab

  • Thunderbolt to firewire adaptor does not work when daisy chaining firewire devices

    Hi,
    I just purchased the Thunderbolt to firewire adaptor for my new late 2012 iMac.
    It works when connecting a single firewire device, but when I daisy chain another drive, the first drive disconnects and nothing mounts.
    I am trying a Hitachi G-Raid and a couple of WD My Studio II hard drives. They all work when connected directly to the adaptor, but not when more than one drive if daisy chained with firewire.
    Has anyone got firewire daisy-chaining working with a thunderbolt adaptor? (just to clarify I am not refering to thunderbolt daisy chaining, as the adaptor is an end-of-chain thunderbolt device).
    Thanks

    Yikes, that's sad to hear.
    I can't test it, no TB here, but are all these drives self AC powered, ie. no bus powered drives?

    Restart your device by holding the power and home buttons simultaneously. Don't release them until you see the Apple logo. Don't worry, you will not lose any data.
    Try again.
