Urgent help please. Can't get image on LED cinema display.

My husband has a traumatic brain injury. His existing monitor went kaput yesterday, & I've been trying desperately to set up a new LED cinema display with his Mac Pro that was purchased May 2007 for the past 4.5 hrs without success. Can't get any image on it & don't know what else to try. Any suggestions please?

Can we assume that the graphics card has been replaced with one that has a mini display port, such as the Radeon HD 5770 or the Geforce GT 120? The originally shipped graphics card options for the 2007 Mac Pro do NOT have the Mini Display Port.
Does my computer have a Mini DisplayPort connector?
If not, one will either need an Atlona AT-DP400 adapter to connect the LED Cinema Display to a dual link DVI port of the graphics card OR to replace the graphics card with one that is equipped with the Mini Display Port.
Review of the Atlona AT-DP400.
Also, does the Mac Pro have OS X 10.6.4 or later?

  • Can't control volume on LED Cinema Display from keyboard

    I have a LED Cinema Display attached to my Mac Mini. The volume control buttons on the keyboard don't work anymore. The only way I can change the volume is to use the volume control on the video I am watching. I tried the headset trick on the output port on the Mini, and now that works with the volume keys. But, the display volume is still not working. Any hints?

    The reason why that has happened in the first place is because MAC OS, is programed to not adjust the volume through an HDMI interface. If you have the volume control shown on the upper bar like i do, it appears light grey.When you click on it you cannot move it up or down. This is of course what the keyboard controles for volume. It does not control the program.

  • Just got iMac 21.5 can't get image on Apple Cinema HD display - is it thunderbolt issue?

    I just got my new iMac 21.5" desktop and tried to connect my 21" Apple cinema HD display. I have power to the external display but no image - screen blank. I'm wondering if it is a cable issue even though the adapter I used to connect this monitor to my MacBook Pro fit the thunderbolt port - is this a port or adapter issue?

    In continuing my research on this topic, I found this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5198
    Short version, the 23" Cinema HD is among one of several older "vintage" Apple displays that are no longer supported under Mavericks. No brightness control, and it's likely to not work reliably at all. I can't say why I was able to use it for as long as I did with no problems. I take all this to mean that the display itself works fine, but not with my new MBP Retina.
    Though a tempting excuse to spend another grand on a 27" Apple Thunderbolt display, I opted for a $250 HDMI monitor from Fry's instead.

  • How, please, can I get rid of the icons in the bookmarks toolbar so I have space for more bookmark names? Thank you

    I try to get as many items as I can in the bookmarks menu toolbar (typically using 3 letter names). F4 adds an icon next to each name - taking up valuable space. How, please, can I get rid of the icons in the bookmarks toolbar so I have space for more bookmark names? Thank you.

    If you remove the names then you may have a problem with organizing or searching for bookmarks.<br />
    If you do not want to use the extension then you can achieve the same effect with code in userChrome.css<br />
    That is what I would do.
    Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

  • Load XML in intranet ? urgent help please...

    Dear friends, I need urgent help: I have a CAYIN screen (which lets me display evetns, etc) and gives me the option of loading/displaying a FLASH (SWF) file, well, I need this SWF to load some XML data ("texto.xml") but  seems that when the CAYIN program which executes flash, does not allow the SWF to find the XML in the same folder...
    Then I tried many ways to load the XML file with no success till now. Some tries are :
    obj_xml.load("\\192.168.0.100\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("../media/texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("\\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("file:\\192.168.0.100\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("..\\192.168.0.100\media\texto.xml")
    I guess I am writting something wrong or forgetting something. Would anyone please help me ? because these files are in an internal server "192.168.0.100" (intranet).
    Urgent help please, thanks in advance,

    if the swf is in a directory with subdirectory media which contains texto.xml, use:
    obj_xml.load("media/texto.xml")
