Is there an adaptor to hook up an HDMI cable to a MacBook Pro?

hi there,
I have an old MacBook Pro i think dating back to 2000. I can't connect an HDMI cable in order to hook it up to my TV,
did they come up with a converter for this issue??
thanks for your help

okay this is what it says:
OBS,MACBOOK PRO (17-INCH)
model identifier:
MacBookPro1,2
model number:
MA092xx/A
Configuration:
17"/D2.16G/1G/120/SD-DL
Not even sure that this is it, but when i click on the apple button, here's what i get in the USB section:
USB Bus: Bluetooth USB Host Controller, IR Receiver, Built-in-iSight...
does that help?

Is there a way to hook up a xbox 360 to a macbook pro?

Is there a way to hook up a xbox 360 to a macbook pro? I'm about to move to college and I don't have a tv but I want to play my xbox if its possible.

I have an E-Bay Cheap mouse (Speedlink) and a PCWorld cheap keyboard (Advent) both connected at the same time.
These both connected at the same time when first installed - but on subsequent connections one is required to be deleted and re-added.
Have you tried connecting one, deleting the other and then re-pairing?

Hooking up my late 2011 17 inch MacBook Pro to an ultra tv (4k resolution) for use as a monitor?

Hey! I am interested in hooking up my late 2011 17 inch MacBook Pro to an ultra tv (4k resolution). My computer has native 1920x1080 but can I reach 4k using that tv as a monitor? I plan on using a thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. Has anyone even tried this? I've heard rumors that the MacBook doesn't recognize that the tv has higher than 1920x1080 and so people use a hacked graphics card. It's all very confusing but if anyone has gotten this to work I'd be very interested in knowing how its done.

Any updates to this with latest Maveriks OSX upgrade 10.9?
I have an Active TB/HDMI adapter that coworker said he got to work with 4K Monitor at 3840.
Still trying to get a hold of him to validate his MBP model, but think it is the same as mine, Late 2011 MBP
All I am getting is 1920x1080 in options lisy with 10.9.2.

Can I hook up 2 USB headsets to me Macbook Pro?

Can I hook up 2 USB headsets to me Macbook Pro (running v.10.9.2)?

Are you looking through Thunderbolt? You can do it on your model with 2 Thunderbolt displays according to Apple Support document;
Thunderbolt-capable Macs, with discrete AMD Radeon graphics can support up to two connected Apple Thunderbolt Displays.
MacBook Pro (15-inch and 17-inch, Early 2011)
iMac (Mid 2011)2
Mac mini (Mid 2011), 2.5 GHz3
Two Thunderbolt display
Here is a third party that does it also;
Matrox DualHead2Go DP Edition or TripleHead2Go DP Edition. Pricey though.

Mac freezing when hooked up to HDMI cable...

While presenting videos in class for teaching (like youtube and netflix) my mac freezes and lags when hooked up to an hdmi cable. Why?
It freezes at a spot and I hear the audio for a few seconds then it completely freezes-sound too.
In order to remedy this problem I have to unplug, shut down, and restart for a good 5 minutes. Not sure why this is happening but it hurts the flow of my teaching!
Help

I have been having a similiar issue where I use the HDMI dongle on my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) hooked up to an external TV/Monitor. After a couple of hours, the MacBook freezes with crazy sounds coming out the speaker and heavy pixelation on the screen. I reboot and it's fine again. I only had this issue when I started using the HDMI dongle. I been using the VGA dongle and everything works great.

How do I hook up Acer G236hl monitor to my macbook pro?

I recently purchased a macbook pro (non retina display) and an acer G236HL monitor. I would like to hook the monitor up to the macbook for a dual monitor display. There is no port on the macbook to go with the cables provided with the monitor (DVI cable and HDMI cable). How do I make this work? Is there some sort of adapter I can get or am I out of luck?

Use a MiniDisplay Port to DVI or HDMI adapter.
They are available fror Apple

or from may other sources you can Google.

How do I hook up two 24 Apple LED with macbook pro 2011?

How do I hook up two 24" Apple LED displays with my MacBook Pro 2011

I would think that with only a single TB port the best you can do is connect only a single display. No chaining possible.
If a splitter can be found (didn't check if there is such a thing) then you probably could drive two displays but of course they would be mirrored.

Monitor Adaptor Cable for 2008 Macbook Pro

I need an adaptor cable to hook up my 2008 Macbook Pro to a new 21" HP monitor.
My Macbook Pro does not have the Mini DisplayPort. Any other suggestions? The monitor came with a PC VGA and DVI-D cable. Thanks!

If I think I know what your saying, it sounds like the store only had the Magsafe 2 connectors for the new model Macbook Pro's. The good news is yes stores still sell both Magsafe 1 and Magsafe 2 adapters. My advice would be to just take your adapter into the store and show the sales person what you need.

Hooking up an HDMI cable

Hi All,
I have a new 17" macbook pro w/ thunderbolt port. I keep reading that I can hook up this laptop to my HDMI tv. The adapters I see on this site are all minidisplay to HDMI. I can't seem to find the mini display port on my macbook pro.
Could someone help me figure this out.
Thanks,
Mike

You really need to chill dude.
And you need to read more carefully
Your statement was "I think the minidisplay port and thunderbolt are interchangeable"
A thunderbolt peripheral connected to an MDP port is not supported at all, and MDP peripheral connected to a thunderbolt port may be supported but there are caveats even to that.

Is there a way of improving my graphics on my early 2011 macbook pro 13"?

Does anyone know a way of improving the graphics capability for OpenGL with the Intel 3000 chips in the early 2011 MBP 13"? I bought it not realising the graphics chips had been downgraded and now as a result struggle to do any CGI work that I rely on my computer to do.

I'm more inclined to go with Ogelthorpe's advice (if I had the cash).
I agree with Ogelthorpe as well, the 15" and the 17" MacBook Pro also have dedicated graphics cards which give more performance than the Intel HD 3000 only graphics, which is really of MacBook type performance for consumer user. (playback of video and that's about it)
Still wondering why Apple went backwards for graphics in the 13", I completely missed the change.
I'm peeved at Apple for the fact that they didn't make a clear distinction of the disadvantages of the 13" with no dedicated graphics card then lumped it in with the 15" and 17" which do.
To Apple it's a matter of performance for price, the 13" scores 11 on Cinebench, the 15/17" score 30 and 45, so the 13" doesn't even come close. But it comes in the same silver case, the same "MacBook Pro" name, when in fact it's not so.
Apple knows people would be attracted to the performance of the MacBook Pro name in a small size factor, the price is also attractive to the younger crowd, the younger crowd are also interested in running 3D games, which need a more powerful video card.
Your not the first who's complained and feels burned, you trusted Apple was selling you a powerful MacBook Pro machine and you've got a consumer machine instead.
The 13" Mac laptop should have gotten it's own category, called it a MacBook instead and it should have come with white or black case. But that would have angered Intel most likely, who are trying to push integrated graphics on their CPU's so they own the whole show eventually.
It's going to take a long time before CPU integrated graphics is ever going to beat dedicated GPU graphics, because 3D game detail is always going to go up until it finally reaches 3D raytracing at 200 fps.
What Apple is doing is trying to get folks hooked on lessor quality/detail games, the ones you see on iPads and iPhones, and away from wanting rich detail which needs a powerful dedicated video card.
So Apple lumps the 13" MacBook in with the MacBook Pro line, try to force the issue, next they will try it with the 15", integrated graphics on the low end model. Then again only dedicated graphics on the 17" model and so forth. Eventually developers won't make as many 3D games for Mac's because most people buy laptops, cuts into their potential sales.
If you really want to run 3D games, you have to go with a Windows 7 desktop where the video card can be swtiched out.

Is there a way one can safely remove the keys on a macbook pro lap top and clean under them without causing damage? Or is it best to just take it in for that.... say if one spilled a small amount of maple syrup? Help please.

Is there a way to remove, clean, and safely re-affix the keys on a macbook pro without causing damage.... or is it best to let the Pro's do it?

i would let the pros do it. ive dismantled my mbp before and its a pain with all the little parts. you basically have to remove everything from the bottom up (logic board, ram, all cables, cd drive) to get to the keyboard.
how much junk you got under those keys? the space between the metal and keys are small, unlike a pc laptop (though most pc laptops have easier keyboards to remove) .
