What type of monitors can I use with the Mac Mini?

Hello,
I was thinking on purchasing a Mac Mini. I was not sure if the monitor I have at work with function with the Mac Mini. It is a: 20" ViewSonic Professional Series P815...
Does anyone know if this monitor will work with any Mac Mini? Is there an adapter for it?
Thanks.

It would be fine for them all - all minis have come with DVI video connectors and adapters to convert that to VGA, so aside from the possibility that the Viewsonic might suffer the greyish or dull screen problem that affected a small(ish) proportion of displays with the first generation mini, it should connect up using the adapter just fine, and be correctly recognized by the system.

  • I want to link my Mac Mini through my independent hifi system, which forms part of my home tv system which is the monitor I am using with the Mac Mini. The hdmi cable I am using comes from the receiver of the tv. I cannot get sound from the Mac Mini. Do

    I cannot link my new MacMini with my TV's sound system. It's a Pioneer screen & receiver with an independent Pioneer Amp. The Mac Mini does not pick up the sound through the hdmi cable, so how do I get sound going through the MacMini so I can appreciate the music and films I want to hear. Do I need another piece of Apple kit? I have seen 'Express' on Apples web site. Surely I dont have to pay for this as well?
    I used to have an Apple TV box which had a seperate audio connection from my Pioneer Amp and it worked great.
    Help will be appreciated

    The Mac Mini is going to be used for an Internet connection on the Pioneer Plasma/receiver so I can also play stored films from a seperate hard drive. The receiver has an HDMI connection which I have connected the Mac Mini too. the picture is fine, but there is no sound. I have checked the 'sound' settings on the Mac Mini and it registers the Pioneer PDP receiver is connected but states it has no audible connection?

  • Whats types of inputs can be used with DAQ 6527? (PNP or NPN)

    I need to know what types of input device (PNP or NPN) can be used with a DAQ 6527.

    Greetings,
    The digital inputs of the 6527 require TTL signals. As long as your device, whether it be a pnp or npn transistor, outputs a TTL signal, it will be compatible.

  • What is a good third party display to use with the Mac Mini?

    The Acer monitor I bought simply doesn't work with my first generation Mac-Mini. When connected to the VGA connection I get a "input not supported" message. When I connect the DVI, the screen blacks out when I scroll and then comes back, at first I thought it was just with Firefox but soon discovered it was with any application I used. After some research on the internet I discovered that there is a problem with the firmware design on the DVI's on Acer Monitors. My new Acer monitor is enjoying it's new home in my sisters office, on her desk, connected to the VGA plug on her computer, enjoying Windows XP.
    At another web site for the Mac-Mini I was told that there are not that many displays that work for the Mac-Mini and I would be better off purchasing an Apple display, only problem is that the Apple displays are not within my budget. I would like some suggestions on this board from users as to what third party displays they use with a first generation Mac-Mini? I'm looking in the budget range of $200 to $250 dollars. I have a first generation Mac-Mini, Mac OS X Panther.
    PS I have tried setting monitor resolutions using both the VGA and DVI plug, they don't work.
    Thank you for any help I receive.

    Charles,
    I cannot speak on behalf of hooking this model of monitor up to a mini, however I do have a 19" Planar monitor at home hooked up to an old G4 tower via VGA, and the 19" Planar monitor that I have at work is hooked up via digital to my G4 15" PowerBook. I love both of these Planar 19" LCD monitors, and have absolutely no complaints. Planar's three year warranty is nice, and their tech support is top notch. I had an issue with the monitor at work, and I had a replacement on my desk in two days. Returning the bad monitor in the pre-paid box that the new one came in made things effortless. We have a few Planar's in the school district that I work in, and have no major issues with any of them.
    Not too sure what the most recent pricing is on this model, but CDW was selling them for around $225-$230 delivered right to your door.
    Hope this helps.

  • What type of iviews can be used with WPC?

    Can  BSP, WebDynpro ABAP and JAVA  can be added using WPC? Are there any limitations? How about Object Base navigation?

    That's a very broad statement! Do you mean that you cannot deploy any web dynpro content at all, even if it is launched as a URL iView?
    As I said, you need to try your own content.

  • What kind of external microphone can I use with the MacBook Pro?

    What kind of microphone can I use with GarageBand in MacBook Pro ?

    It depends which MBP you have. Some of the newer ones don't have an audio in port, so you need a USB adapter with an audio in jack.

  • What type of repeater should I use with my new Airport Extreme?

    what type of repeater should I use with my new Airport Extreme? Thanks.

    If you want to repeat both bands of your dual band AirPort Extreme, another AirPort Extreme would meet these requirements.
    If you only need to extend one of the bands that the AriPort Extreme provides, then an Airport Express would do that nicely.

  • What type of Data target is used when the safety interval is used?

    Hi ,
    what type of Data target is used when the safety interval is used in generic delta in datasource?DSO or cube  or cube?
    Pls explain me ?
    Thanks,
    Nimai

    It's up to your reporting requirement to go for dso or cube..
    I prefer to having staging with DSO and then further reporting on Cube ..
    It's always easier to manage when you have any changes to the cube .. you need not to extract data from R/3 .. if you have dso you can extract directly to cube
    Another thing is -for any reason some of your records got corrupted so you can have full loads to dso which has the overwrite functionality...  and sends delta records to cube. even in cube you can do selective deletion but we have to very careful to avoid double records in next loads
