Late 2009 iMac Mini DisplayPort video input
Supposedly you can connect a video source to the MDP port, rather opposite of it's traditional use on older models. I see no option in System Preferences - displays that mentions switching to this new input. Does the Mac auto sense a signal here and switch to in automatically? Does the manufacturers of MDP to HDMI adapters have anything to say if their devices work bidirectionally? And if they do support joined audio over HDMI like some do, then again do they do that bidirectionally. Of course this is a Apple forum and Apple moderators can't speak about 3rd party products, but they could tell us how video in would work from either a setup TV tuner box or a blu-ray player.
This is a user to user forum. There is no moderator participation explaining anything, just we users are here for that.
Many things about Macs are auto-detected by them and when detected the appropriate preferences appear as if by magic. Someone with a new iMac who has successfully connected to an input source would be able to say definitively if the preferences change.
As for what can be hooked up to the port and used, most of the adapters of which you refer are uni-directional, designed for video output only. Apple states explicitly in the webpages describing the new iMacs and their features that the port accepts a signal from another device with a mini-DisplayPort only. So if you have a Mac laptop with a m-DP you can hook it to your new iMac as the monitor with a m-DP to m-DP cable. Apple sells one made by Belkin in the Apple Store.
The other thing about the m-DP is that is does not carry audio. So the idea of hooking it up to a Blu-Ray player is still just a hyped idea. However, it appears that Belkin is developing a black box to facilitate this idea. Earlier in the week some folks here in the forum linked a Belkin website page with an HDMI to m-DP adapter to convert an HDMI signal to m-DP input. Later this week Belkin took down the page, so perhaps it is not yet ready for production and sales! On one side is an HDMI input. Coming out the other side is both a m-DP and a USB port. I think that the black box separated the signal into audio, to send to the Mac over USB and video, to send to the Mac over m-DP. The USB port could also supply any power the box may need to its job.

Audio and Mini DisplayPort on Late 2009 iMac (27")
I have a Late 2009 27" iMac and a 42" HDTV that I would love to hook up with eachother so I can start using Plex-and-the-likes on the bigger screen.
But I'm wondering if the Mini DisplayPort of this iMac supports audio, as I do not want my sound to come from the other side of the room when watching stuff on the TV.
I've been reading around on the net, but I can't seem to find anything conclusive that tells me that it works (some discussions and thread claim that it should work, but some official documentation regarding the Late 2009 and Mid 2010 iMacs (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3913) only mentions the Mid 2010 one with audio output in the Mini DisplayPort
Not sure if it matters, but I'm running a fully up-to-date OS X Lion.
Thanks in advance.According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241, your late 2009 iMac's displayport should support hdmi audio output, (but I have no idea whether there might be OS-X version limitations).
Here are two attractive alternatives to the spendy apple-referenced adapters. I can't vouch for them, but they have great user reviews, and very low-risk pricing. (I just ordered one of each to try with my MBP and new HDTV -- but neither the adapters nor the TV have been delivered yet.)
miniDP-to-hdmi adapter from monoprice.com @ $6.65
miniDP-to-hdmi cable from amazon.com @ $8.67
Another interesting thought would be to skip the miniDP entirely and go with USB-to-hdmi, with an adapter that sounds almost too good to be true. Any comments on this technology (displaylink) would be much appreciated:

Displayport video input support for new 27" iMac
Does anyone know if the new 27" iMac just released today has support for displayport video input like the previous generation 27" iMac does? Please tell me you haven't taken this awesome feature away in the midst of the change to Thunderbolt ports etc! I'm asking because in the previous gen iMac specs it clearly states that displayport video input is supported but it doesn't mention it in the tech specs section of the new iMac.
Could someone from Apple please let me know? Thanks.
MikeI am tempted to go out and buy a new HDMI to mini-displayport adapter and connect it to a new iMac at the Apple store to see for myself........
I'd hold up on that. I don't see a mini displayport on the new iMac. Looks like it goes through the Thunderbolt interface. Scroll down to connectors.

How to manage a failed OS X Mavericks installation | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews.
Try these in order:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless. -
I have a late 2012 iMac and a late 2009 mac mini. I want to know if I can take the 8 GB of ram from the iMac and install it in my mac mini.
According to Cruicial my mac mini could use:
Module Size: 8GB Kit (4GBx2)
Package: 204-pin SODIMM
Feature: DDR3 PC3-8500
Specs: DDR3 PC3-8500 • CL=7 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1066 • 1.35V • 512Meg x 64
Also According to Cruical my iMac uses:
Module Size: 8GB Kit (4GBx2)
Package: 204-pin SODIMM
Feature: DDR3 PC3-12800
Specs: DDR3 PC3-12800 • CL=11 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1600 • 1.35V
I want to increase the ram in both computers.
So, can I put the iMac ram in my mac mini and then I'd only have to buy ram for my iMac? Naturally the ulitmate test will be when I actually install it, but having an expectation of success or failure will allow me to plan on what to spend money on.
Thanks,
BearThanks for the responses. I probably wont even try as my priority is Ram for the mac mini. 2 is not enough. 8 for my imac is okay for now.
Somewhere I thought I'd heard that faster Ram would simply clock at the lower speed. It seems that I am incorrect.
Thanks,
Bear -
|HELP| Is the late 2009 iMac going to work fine with Video Editing ?
Hey guys,
I would like to know if a late 2009 iMac with an i7 processor could edit a short film in Adobe Premiere Pro and if it could do some things in Adobe After Effects.
Please let me know how it will perform ? Is it going to crash ? PLEASE HELP
iMac Late 2009
Intel Quad-Core i7 2,8 GHz
ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB

Thank you very much.Your system could use more RAM. However, it should run fine if you quit all other Apps and have plenty of free internal hard drive space.

My hard drive is slower than ever - Late 2009 iMac - help requested
I was testing my hard disk via BlackMagic Disk Speed Test across the network (for copying files from my MacBook Pro to my Late 2009 iMac, and I was shocked at the write speeds.
Because of this, I went to the machine and ran local tests, both BlackMagic and xbench. Suddenly I was horrified when I saw the performance for write operations well below the speeds I'd observed in the past. Luckily, I had saved xbench files so I had the ability to compare old disk tests. In the summer of 2013 running 10.7.3, this same hard drive had an uncached write speed of 116 MB/s [4K blocks] and 94 MB/s [256K block]. Now, the drive running under 10.9.5 is performing very inconsistently, with top speeds around 80 MB/s and averages more like 50 MB/s.
I cannot think of any significant changes to tools or background applications installed since that time, so I ran EtreCheck -- the results of which I'm pasting below.
Any guidance as to what I should test would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading! --
Chris
Problem description:
Hard disk slowed to less than half the speed from Mac OS X 10.7.3, as I am now on 10.9.5 and the speed appears to be roughly 40M/s uncached write down from 119M/s previously. I am using the same drive, memory and most of the same applications.
The only large difference is the OS.

I did a horrible job of explaining *when* the slow performance became noticeable. These changes did not happen when I installed Mavericks, I just don't have benchmarks *saved* to give the support community exact numbers after Mavericks was installed. The performance at that time was roughly the same, although you might recall that the old app xbench no longer worked to give a comparison because one or more of the sections of testing wouldn't work (memory, if I recall correctly, although I will run it when I am back at that machine and post here).
In any case, the only significant change since the slow down is the OS, but the decline in performance was noticed in the fall. It wasn't until I tried this network copying task the other day that I decided to run BlackMagic's test. This is when I realized I should go check the performance on the local machine. Having already run through many of the generic recommendations, I thought perhaps someone here who has a much deeper understanding of the storage abstraction layer would have guidance on specific preference files that might be corrupted since I can't find any tool to check them. I've noticed that many of the people seeking guidance are not very technical and the advice is similarly geared. I'm sure I could spend a little time this week finding comparable tools in Mac OS X to those I'd have used in the past on Windows (Sysinternals) to do real time debugging and process analysis.
So far I have found that there were a few processes running high, like the dashboard client, so I moved (deleted) the preference file and rebooted. This resulted in the gain to that 60 MB/sec write performance (up from the low of 40 MB/sec), but there must be other areas yet unexplored.
At this point I'm considering a fresh install, but I'd been told in previous exchanges when I first started developing on Macs (2008) that fresh installs were rarely the best solution on Macs.
Can you give me guidance on that? You probably know that in the Windows world it is often (depending on how you define often) necessary to format and reinstall the OS. As a long time systems architect developing everything from device drivers to enterprise solutions, I see that as a result of the attempts to maintain legacy support for so long and the convoluted resulting APIs and failure to make real fixes for fear of causing problems with older hardware and software. Would you suggest erasing and reinstalling?
@BobHarris - I know that's a problem and it's why I monitor the drive more than I do drives in other systems. My drive didn't qualify for replacement, but I think Apple doesn't always do a good job with the recalls. I was very fortunate that my old white MacBook qualified for quite a few replacement parts so it's a great browsing-the-web computer now, but at its age, it isn't capable of running most of the apps I need. I have considered selling the 27" iMac but when I last had it in for warranty repair, the DisplayPort was misaligned to the case, so I'm going to have to pay labor just to get it popped open to fix that (since the service center says they didn't cause the DP problem - although they must have!)... In any case, if I have to spend that money, I might as well use the drive doubler kit since I never use the optical drive in that box anyway. Mostly I love having it because of the gorgeous big screen. That being said, costs of repairs are silly when I can just buy another used MBP circa 2012 and get twice the processing power then use a CalDigit dock like the one I use with my existing MBP to use an inexpensive HD TV for the monitor.
Thanks for the replies folks - the input is awesome!

Late 2009 iMac 27" as display for gaming desktop?
I'm looking at buying a gaming desktop with a high end graphics card. I know that the late 2009 imac can use the "mini-displayport" to be used as a monitor for the pc, but the graphics card on my desktop will only have a "displayport." The card comes with a DisplayPort to Mini-DisplayPort cable, which would allow them to connect, but will it be compatible for Target Display mode? Some people have reported success online, but i could be missing information.
Hello CDeuschel,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
Target Display Mode: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3924
Can I use the iMac in TDM as a display for my gaming console, DVD player, or other device?
The Mini DisplayPort port on a supported iMac can receive DisplayPort compliant video and audio signals. Converters not made by Apple may provide options to convert other electrical, video, and audio protocols to Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt compliant signals.
Best of luck,

My late 2009 iMac is running slow, particularly on Mail, more so since I upgraded to Yosemite. I have run an Etrecheck but it doesn't mean too much to me. If anyone can point me to what I need to do I'll be very grateful.

May 3, 2015, 11:22:17 AM Self test - passedThanks for all the replies.
I've now installed the ad blocker, thrown away the unwanted files, and thrown away a copy of Firefox that Adware said had a problematic extension.
Things are better, but still slow.
Activity Monitor shows that with just Mail, Chrome and Excel running, 2.9GB of my 4GB RAM is used. Opening InDesign (always slow) increase that to 3.2GB. But the graph stays green.
Console shows several potential problems but I don't know if any are significant. In any case I will call my Mac store tomorrow to ask their advice about RAM.

Late 2009 imac as second monitor
Hello, I just purchased a new iMac retina 27 inch. I am trying to use my late 2009 iMac 27 inch as a second display using a mini display port. I can get it to work my old cheap second monitor, but when I try the 2009 mac, and I press command F2, it shows the options to set up as a second monitor on the new retina mac but then after a few seconds the options disappear and they go back to being separate monitors. Just wondering if anyone has been able to make this work as I'd hate to have to sell my 2009 mac. Thanks in advance.
You're starting in Target Disk Mode not Target Display Mode. Follow these instructions:
Make sure both computers are turned on and awake. (This is where you're going wrong)
Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer.
Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM.
Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2. -
My late 2009 iMac (10.8.1) have been crashing since I updated to Mountain Lion. What should I do?
I need to restart my mac about 2 or 3 times a day, because it freezes or 'just' the whole screen is like a mash. I've found a photo, and my situatation is similar to this:
Not exactly the same cause the dock and the opened windows can be seen. Just the wallpaper, images, some web pages have this beatiful design. I though the newest update would help, but it's just the same. Maybe one application crashes, just I don't know what to do. ThanksI am having precisely the same issue and have tried everything above and all noted about this problem much discussed elsewhere.
I have also resorted to the restting the System Management Controller http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
My Late 2009 iMac is the custom Intel i7 build with 8 GB Apple installed RAM and a recently replaced SEAGATE hard drive (under the APPLE extended fix arrangement). The OS was a clean install and has been upgraded to 10.8.3.
On appearance of the black screen the operating system appears to be running and responds to sleep and wake using the power button and occasionally shows the screen momentarily and sometimes briefly. Like others. the problem occurs on occassions and on those occassions persists. I also have another system purchased to hopefully get around this problem. I use this new system on the on the same supply ring main, a recent Mac Mini + screen. This sometimes has similar problems but much less often and the problems occur when the iMac has persistent problems. This leads me to think that there is a software and power mains supply problem.
I have also tried connecting the Mac mini too the mini-display-port of the iMac using the relevant cable and using the F2 toggle,. I can see the Mac mini screen even when the iMac has problems.
I live in London. our electricty supply comes from one company responsible for the national grid and pipe to customer. The billing and customer relationship is handled by a number of "suppliers". My supplier (EDF who took over London Electricity) recently included in their updates and materials, the procedure for notification of supply quality issues. This suprised me since I have not had issues of this nature to the extent of being naive on the matter. I have been told by others in the locality of similar MAC computer related problems. I have tried with and without surge supressor.
Whatever the problem, it is a nuisance to have an expensive and otherwise good iMac behave as it does. Any further input will be much appreciated. -
Late 2009 imac as second display for new (late 2012) imac. How to?
I have a late 2009 imac 27 that I would like to use as a second display for my late 2012 imac 27. Has anybody connected them successfully? I am getting very mixed information on the topic.
Thank you. Here's where my confusion comes in
"iMac (Mid 2011) and later: target Display Mode does not work with Mini DisplayPort cable"
Symptoms
When you attempt to connect an iMac (21.5-inch or 27-inch, Mid 2011) and later to another computer with a Mini DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort cable, the screen of the target iMac will not become an external display when you press Command-F2 to activate Target Display Mode.
Resolution
iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011) and iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) and later computers support Target Display Mode via Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable (2 m) when the source is another Thunderbolt-equipped computer.
iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) computers do not support Target Display Mode via Mini DisplayPort cables. -
HT3913 how do i add a second monitor to a late 2009 iMac 27"
I would like to know how to add a second monitor to my late 2009 iMac 27". Has anyone already performed this and if so how?
Depends on the monitor, many support more than one connection.
Also note that: VGA is analog, DVI is digital and HDMI is full HDMI technology.
For a VGA supported monitor, you will need a > Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adaptor and a VGA cable.
For a DVI supported monitor under 24", you will need a > Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adaptor and a DVI cable.
For a DVI supported monitor over 24" you will need a > Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
For a HDMI supported monitor, you will need a > Belkin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter and a HDMI cable. -
Late 2009 imac- Mavericks, Kernel Panics- checkerboard screen- only works in Safe Mode now.
Need help with Late 2009 imac- had HD and video card replaced under Apple Care last year. Upgraded to Mavericks and it froze up while on Yahoo looking at a slide show. Screen pixelated with checkerboard patterns and then eventually locks-up. Only way to get it to work now is in SAFE MODE.
Tried memory test, Resetting SMC, AHT, Zapping NVRAM, PRAM, only errors I can see are some permissions

New kernel panic is now as follows-
What's interesting is I had the video card replaced at Apple in the last year- it's a ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB
But I see that the log has it listed as
"com.apple.ATIRadeonX2000(8.2.4)"
wondering if that my be the problem as the issue is the screen is fragmented and flickers- checkerboard before it crashes when not in safe mode..

Late 2009 Mac Mini EFI 2.1 Firmware update not needed/already factory installed?
Here has been my issue of trying to figure out if Mac Mini can handle (and fully use) 8GB of RAM with my current EFI version.
I want to upgrade to 8GB on a LATE 2009 Mac Mini that currently has Boot ROM MM31.00AD.B00 and was told to update with EFI Firmware update 2.1 but it does not install saying "This update is not needed on this machine".
I found various contradicting posts saying that I need my Boot ROM to be MM31.0081.B06 or my machine won't utilize the 8GB fully
and will slow down in performance and/or crash after the Apple recommended 4GB.
But here's what I found interesting. Some users have mentioned that the Late 2009 Mac Mini's shipped with updated firmware and don't need this update but could not find a concrete answer as to yes it did ship with it or not.
Apple doesn't even list a Late 2009 Mac Mini as needing a Firmware update in this list of Firmware updates: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237 . Should I just assume that my machine shipped with said update and is capeable of the 8GB? I use this for Logic Pro 9 as a somewhat portable workstation that I can take with me so maxing out the RAM would be ideal for me.
Any help or clarification would be greatly apprishiated,
NelsonActually a Late 2009 can take 8GB of RAM and only the Early 2009 needs the EFI update.
