My apple HD display 30" is only showing 1600x800

I have just bought a new mac mini with the following specifications:
2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 , 8GB 1333MHz DDr3, using Mac OS X 10.7.3
I have a Cinema HD Display 30", and I am not being able to increase the resolucion to 2560x1600 pixels. The screen is connected to the only way the mac mini allows, that is with a HDMI connector.
I am looking to increase the screen resolution to the optimum.
Best regards

Hello Malcom,
I have that adapter, but I don´t know where I have to put it so that it starts to work. I have one of the new Mac Mini, with Thunderbolt. Would you be able to explain me with extra details how do I make it. I will really appreciate it. Best regards

  • On Apple TV my photo stream only shows six pictures - how do I get all photos to use as a screen saver. I have reset several times but it still only finds six pictures!!!!

    On Apple TV my photo stream only shows six pictures - how do I get all photos to use as a screen saver. I have reset several times but it still only finds six pictures!!!!

    I recently got apple tv but the photo stream only seems to show up those photos which I took in September and no others (ie. 20 out of around 100).  Any ideas why the earlier photos on my photo stream in ipad don't show up on apple tv? 

  • 30 inch Apple Cinema Display-system prefs not showing native resolutions

    The 30 inch Apple Cinema Display, seems to be working fine with the mac pro, but when I try to hook up the 2009 mini, the display preferences do not show the mini's native resolution of 1920x1200.  The maximum it shows is 1280x800, and only gives a few other choices.  This mini had once been attached to a TV monitor, so I am wondering if that has something to do with the lack of choices in the system preferences.  Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the system preferences to display the correct info so that I can adjust the resolution ?
    Thanks

    Being compatible with the 24-inch Cinema Display and being able to use it at resolutions higher than 1280 by 800 doesn't necessarily mean that it can drive the 30-inch Cinema Display at its full resolution. You need to use a dual-link DVI connection as stated above.

  • Got the 1920x1200 display, but it only shows up to 1680x1050. Was I conned?

    Got my new 17" Macbook Pro with the High-Res display at Apple Store in Atlanta last Thursday, and yesterday I decided to check what if feels to work at the max resolution. The display preference only shows up to 1680x1050. Ran System Profiler, it reports 1680x1050 as the display's res. Have the Geniuses done it again?
    What do I do now, since I'm in Athens Greece, i.e. half way around the world, and won't be anywhere near the US for the next 8 months or so?
    Many thanks, people.

    Mark,
    Thanks for the post. Did you read my previous post
    about Sony's support of a UK customer working in
    Greece? I don't understand why it should be above and
    beyond the call of duty. They offer worldwide cover
    during their AppleCare period. I am using (well,
    trying to, anyway) their product in the very way it
    was meant to be used: on the road. They cover me
    worldwide. Why must I fork out a good few hundreds of
    bucks to help them do what it purely their job?
    Really, it's just my opinion of my expectation, which is completely irrelevant. I did not mean it in an argumentative way. But, to play devils advocate: Apple could refund you $100(difference of cost) or pay 1)A couple of hundred bucks for international shipping.2)insurance(whatever negligable amount that would be. 3)I assume VAT, when re-entering Greece.4)Depreciation on the 'book you have now.(meaning they would likely resell as a certified or refurb.)Plus any other incidentals. From that perspective I would think they would simply offer you the difference. But, I hope that's not the case.
    If you haven't read it already, here is a link to the return policy. http://www.apple.com/legal/salespolicies/retailus.html
    note:* Products can be returned only in the country in which they were originally purchased.
    Again, I want to stress the irrelevance of Warranty issue, support, AppleCare etc. Even of the return policy. All of that is based on the assumption of having the product you wanted not working, or simply buyers remorse. Which isn't the case here. The product works fine, it's just not what you requested,ordered and paid for. I should think Apple, and the Apple store would want to get you the right book.
    As has been mentioned above, call and keep calling until it's resolved. Best of luck!

  • Apple TV display second desktop only??

    hey i'm trying to figure out how to only use airplay to show second desktop and still use my computer? Basically i want to know how to make it either display second screen only on tv or accomplish exactly same thing as when you plug in display port and it seperates as dual screen?

    I just downloaded airparrot and after adjusting some settings I was able to set my television up as a dual screen through Apple TV.  I use Propresenter as a Youth Minister at my church and this setup allows me to do that.  Thank for the info.

  • Missing external display 1920x1080 resolution, only shows 1680x1050... Please HELP !

    When connecting my Macbook Air (mid 2011) to an external LG 22" Display (M2241A) which supports a native resolution of 1920x1080, the closest setting available in the display preferences is 1680x1050, and aspect ratio is really distorted at this size. I use an Apple mini-display-port to HDMI, and HDMI cable to connect the Monitor.
    What can I do to correct this problem ? How do I make the 1920x1080 available and get rid of the distortion ?

    Thanks for your quick answer, but... When I use the 1080p resolution, I need to use Underscan, and the colors change, the fonts get all blurry and overall definition goes really bad. Really seems like a TV setting.
    Maybe okay to watch a movie, but not to work in Photoshop and get design work done properly.
    The external display only has HDMI + VGA inputs.
    So I guess the next step is to try finding a different connector (mini-display to VGA) But I am now in Chile, Patagonia, and believe me, this will be quite a challenge to find !!! Also, no way to buy at Apple online store and get it shipped here in Chile... :-(((

  • 2005 Apple Cinema displays not able to show movies with new iTunes

    ITunes is giving me the following error when trying to watch movies on my 2005 Apple Cinema display(s).
    The selected movie won’t play on one of your connected displays.
    This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
    Try moving the iTunes window to a different display. Make sure the entire window is on the supported display.
    I called the Apple support, they said my displays can not support HDCP. Can anyone else comment on this?
    Is this true to the best of your knowledge?
    Is there anything I can do to make my movies play again? Other than buy new monitors of course.
    Thanks...

    Hi,
    Highlight one of the applications that cannot be updated and click File> Get Info. Make sure you are signing-in to the iTunes Store with that Account Name shown in the Get Info window.
    Then sign-in to the iTunes store and verify the account information as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
    If the issue persists, try to reconfigure the security software or remove the SC Info folder as others have in this related discussion: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1939036

  • Save for Web is not displaying white text, only showing the drop shadow of a vector.

    I just updated Illustrator this morning and now having this issue. I have two logos on the artboard. Both are filled with white, both have the same small drop shadow. The both show up on the artboard, but when I try to save for web or export into a .jpeg the white doesn't fill in on one logo, but it does on the other.
    Anyone have any ideas on a fix?

    Do the white objects appear when in Overprint mode?

  • Ipod classic will only show apple sign and a big red X when I try to do anything? What happened? How do I fix it?

    Ipod classic froze and after resetting it, will only show a grey apple sign and a big red X when I try to do anything. Don't know what happened. Don't know how to fix it. Tried everything it says to do in support. At this point I would be happy with getting it back to  factory default.

    Hi katieperkins99,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! 
    I understand that your iPod classic is displaying a red X icon on the display. In this situation, I would recommend restoring your iPod from Disk Mode. Please use the information located in the attached article for instructions on completing the process.
