Thunderbolt to dVI adapter

does anyone know if there is an apple adapter for thunderbolt to VGA or DVI

Since the Mini DisplayPort is physically compatable with ThunderBolt  you can use the adapter at http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/B/mini-displayport-to-vga-adapter

  • New Mac Mini thunderbolt to DVI adapter issues

    Hi there,
    I'm working on a new studio installation. We have a new Mac Mini that we're trying to connect up to a 30-inch Cinema HD display with DVI input. We have a Kanex C30 Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter that plugs into the Thunderbolt port and one of the USB ports (for power) on the back of the Mini, but despite our best efforts we aren't getting anything on the display. Going Mac - adapter - display results in about 7/8ths of the screen going white and displaying two green and misshapen Apple logos for about 5 seconds before it goes blank.
    Ultimately we want to run it over quite a long DVI cable and currently have an Extron signal booster in place, which works perfectly from the Mac Mini's HDMI output through an HDMI to DVI adapter. However we're already using the HDMI output to feed another monitor. 
    So two questions really:
    1. Can the Mac Mini feed two separate displays of different sizes? The 30-inch over Thunderbolt to DVI and another Apple 24 inch display over HDMI to DVI.
    2. Does anybody have any experience with the Kanex or can you recommend an adapter that will work for us?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This whole process has been a very long headache!
    Many thanks,
    Josh

  • Why do my speakers make a loud hissing/white noise when the aux cable is plugged in at the same time my thunderbolt to dvi adapter/cable is plugged in?

    I have tried this with headphones and speakers and the result is the same. I have tried this with multiple displays, multiple thunderbolt to dvi adapters, and multiple dvi cables. Does anyone know if there is a way to fix this? Thank you in advance!

    What's on the other end of the Aux cable

  • Can I use a thunderbolt to DVI adapter to connect my NEC montor to my MAC MINI?

    I guess I can turn the question around and ask how many differnt ways are there to attach a monitor to a MAC MINI?

    It should work if the NEC is DVI.
    Other ways are expensive Apple Thunderbolt Monitor, or these..

  • Why doesn't thunderbolt-to-dvi-to-vga work?

    Macbook Pro (Mid 2011), Mountain Lion, latest version.
    I am trying to use an external VGA display from my MBP. Thunderbolt to DVI output works fine. I don't have a Thunderbolt to VGA adapter, so I connected a DVI to VGA adapter to the DVI end of the Thunderbolt to DVI adapter. I get no output in this arrangement, and the MBP does not seem to notice that anything is connected. I've checked the projector and the DVI to VGA adapter, and both are as they should be. Is there some reason this combination doesn't work, and can I do anything to fix it?

    I found out. The Thunderbolt port is digital only, whereas a DVI port outputs analog and digital. There is no analog signal at the DVI end of the Thunderbolt to DVI adapter, so the DVI to VGA adapter has nothing to pass along.
    I was wondering if that was the answer but I wasn't sure, so I appreciate that you came back and let everybody know that was the case.

  • 2 Monitors via 2 Thunderbolt-to-DVI adapters to Macbook pro Retina.

    I own a 2012 Macbook pro retina, and I'm looking to buy two non-apple monitors. Now I've been wondering whether it would be possible to use my 2 thunderbolt ports and attach each with a thunderbolt-to-DVI adapter, and thereby connect the 2 separate external non-apple Monitors.

    Yes, that would work just fine.

  • Does Thunderbolt work with the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter?

    I just ordered a new 13" MacBook Pro with Retina Display to replace my Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pro.  I've been using the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter to extend my screen to an older 20" Cinema Display.  From what I can find online, and I'm here asking for confirmation, I should still be able to use the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter with the new MacBook Pro's Thunderbolt port.  Correct? 

    still be able to use the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter with the new MacBook Pro's Thunderbolt port.  Correct?
    Yes.

  • Mini Display port DVI adapter not working on Thunderbolt Port

    For some time I've been using a mini display port to DVI adapter on an slightly older MBP to connect to my HD TV.  I recently purchased a MBP with a Thunderbolt port and when I try to connect it to my TV via my mini-display-port-DVI adapter things are not working properly.  The MBP is seeing the Philips TV but it isn't listing all the display modes and I'm not able to send any video to it.  Does the Thunderbolt port require a new display port to DVI adapter?

    Let me be clearer; I've got the MDP-DVI adapter connected to a cable that is DVI on one end and HDMI on the other.  I've got both laptops so I can compare side by side.  I plug in the MDP-DVI adapter to the old laptop and all works well; I plug it into the new laptop and while the laptop does see the TV, the display modes for it are all 1080p which is wrong I don't see any desktop image on the TV unlike when I plug it into the older laptop.  This is very disappointing as I expect things to just work with Apple products.

  • Mini-Displayport to DVI adapter not working, but Mini-Displayport to VGA and Thunderbolt work fine

    Mini-Displayport to DVI adapter not working, but Mini-Displayport to VGA and Thunderbolt work fine.
    This is a brand new MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2012) just received.  I suspect that this is a hardware problem as:
    The mini-displayport to DVI adapter and the external monitor that I am utilizing connect and operate just fine using my older MacBook Pro (mid-2010) with the same OS.
    The new MacBook Pro powers the external monitor with a mini-displayport to VGA adapater without issue.
    The new MacBook Pro powers an Apple Thunderbolt display without issue.
    Both MacBook Pro's are running OSX Lion 10.7.4.
    The only combination which does not work is the mini-displayport to DVI adapater used in conjunction with the brand new MacBook Pro (mid-2012).
    All adapters and components (mini-displayport adapters) are Apple retail adapter.
    I have tried several external monitors, including my Dell U2412m.
    When I connect the mini-displayport to DVI adapater to the new MacBook Pro (mid-2012), nothing happens. The external monitor reports "no signal" and attempts to go into sleep mode.  Using the "Detect displays" button has no effect, even when used multiple times.  Rebooting does not help, nor does resetting the SMC or PRAM.
    Any other suggestions before I take it to the Genius Bar?

    I turns out that the logic board of my MacBook Pro was faulty (despite being brand new).
    I took it to the Apple Store, presented the problem, and one of the Tech's came to the same conclusion that I had -- hardware failure.  Phone support was no help in the matter (and even told me that what I was trying to do wasn't a supported option, which is rediculous).  However, the Genius Bar did take care of the problem, and my MacBook Pro was back to me with a replaced logic board within a few days.
    Hope that htis helps.

  • External video projector - How can I hook up my Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter onto my new MacBookAir if the machine does not have a mini port (but only 2 USBs and 1 Thunderbolt)?

    Hi
    How can I hook up my DVI Adapter onto my new MacBookAir if the machine does not have a mini port (but only 2 USBs and 1 Thunderbolt)?
    Is there a DVI adaptor already for Thunderbolt?
    Thanks,
    JFR

    The Mini Display port and Thunderbolt port use compatible connector bodies. Your current Mini Display to DVI or VGA adapter will still work as before on the newer Thunderbolt capable machines.

  • My MBP Retina doesn't allow the use of two Thunderbolt to DVI adapters. It only works with one TB - VGA adapter and one TB - DVI adapter. However now the color on the VGA connected monitor is slightly different.

    The monitors are Viewsonic VA2406m-LED. The Display preferences show all three monitors but one monitor always says "No Signal" if they are both connected TB -> DVI.
    The Color on the VGA connected one is slighly off. It seems like I should be able to connect two DVI monitors not sure why this is stopped. Does it have something to do with the Graphics card?

    The problem was with the newEgg adapter. I just went to the Apple Store and bought an Apple adapter and the monitor now displays correctly.
    For future reference, in case anyone experiences this problem:
    the newEgg adapter is part number 9SIA1PU0P88920, described as a Thunderbolt Mini Displayporrt Display Port DP to DVI Adapter for APPLE Macbook Pro Air and the full description says it works for macbook pro, etc.
    when this adapter is used, the macbook pro recognizes the monitor, but the monitor displays nothing.
    When the apple adapter (MB507Z/B Mini Display Port to DVI Adapater) is used, the monitor displays correctly.
    Of course, the individual newEgg part might simply be defective, but I doubt it.  moral -- spend the extra $$ and buy the Apple adapter.

  • MacMini (2011) problem with Thunderbolt display if 2nd monitor is connected via HDMI/DVI adapter

    Hi,
    iam running a MacMini (2011) 2.3GHz i5 with Mac OS X 10.7.4 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 256 GB Samsung SSD.
    If i connect a Thunderbolt display only - all is fine.
    But if i connect a 2nd monitor ( Samsung S23A700) via HDMI / DVI adapter (original Apple) the major screen (Thunderbolt Display) sometimes
    is going black and immidiately back to normal. It looks like that it happens very often if i scroll down with the Apple Magic Mouse.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance
    Thomas

    I have exactly the same problem. MacMini Server i7 (mid 2011) Macmini5.3.16Gb ram.
    Mini and Thunderbolt no blink-outs.
    Mini and Thunderbolt and Dell 23" connected to HDMI-DVI connector, the Thunderbolt display blinks out when system is under stress as in the Develop module of Lightroom 4.
    I thought it was a problem with my Thunderbolt display, and since its on a VESA mount, I didn't really want to haul in in to the Apple Store.  I decided to be sure it was the dosplay...
    I borrowed a MacbookPro i7 and ran it from a clone of my Mini. No problems aster hours of use. (But with only ONE monitor.)  That suggested that there was no problem with the Thunderbolt Display.
    I decided to run the Mini with only one display.  Again no problems. I plugged in the Second monitor to the HDMI port and within 2 minutes I had my first "Blink-Out".
    I ran the rest of the day without the second monitor with no problems.
    I conclude the mini will not work reliably with two monitors if one is a Thunderbolt. 
    I was using two Dell Monitors before I got the Thunderbolt Diskplay (for 3 months) without incident.

  • Apple Mini DVI to DVI Adapter to connect Win7 tower to iMac / Target Display Mode

    I currently run Windows on bootcamp on the iMac (Mid-2011), although the tasks I perform (3D modelling, rendering and such) cause the Mac to get very hot, and as a result hae a slight burn mark on the LED LCD screen.
    I am buying a Windows machine, and am to uninstall bootcamp and use the Mac purely for OSX, but use the iMac screen as a monitor for the tower using Target Display Mode. My issue is - the Windows 7 tower only has DVI output. And as I understand, the Mid-2011 iMac only supports Target Display Mode via a thunderbolt cable.
    My question is - Will the Apple Mini DVI to DVI adapter allow me to connect the DVI-only tower to the iMac? Thanks in advance x

    Oh, I should mention also that the iMac is the 27" model. Mid-2011 3.4Ghz Intel Core i7 with 4GB RAM and 1TB Harddrive. And ATI HD5450 1GB Graphics.
