Will a large Apple monitor work with MacBook Pro without add on hardware?

Can I just plug a large Apple monitor into my Mac Pro and have it work or do I need a special card? I'd like to attach a 30" Apple display.
Thanks!

You'll get more applicable answers if you ask in the MacBook Pro forum, then. What applies to a Mac Pro, which is what this forum is for, and to the MacBook Pro may be very different.
When you repost, please be sure to specific your exact model of MacBook Pro. You can get this information by running System Profiler and looking in the Hardware section for the model identifier, processor name and processor speed. Knowing exactly what you have may be important in answering your question.
Regards.

  • Will a 510 intel SSD work with MacBook Pro?

    Coulnd't find anyone who has tried this. I am trying to update my crappy harddrive which is on the edge of dying and want to go SSD to speed up the performance and boot times.

    11. How is the Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter different from the Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter?
    The Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter works best with displays that operate at dual-link resolutions, which are resolutions above 1920 x 1200. For displays that do not support dual-link DVI resolutions (displays that operate at resolutions of 1920 x 1200 or lower) you should use the Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter instead.
    12. Which monitors work with the Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter?
    Use the Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter to connect your computer to a 30-inch display that includes a dual-link DVI connector, such as the Apple Cinema HD Display. Note: For such displays, be sure to connect the USB connection on the adapter to the USB port on your Mac; also connect the USB connection from the display to the USB port on the adapter.

  • Will Airport Base Station (white) work with MacBook Pro?

    I have an older Airport Base Station (white) which I'd like to use with a new MacBook Pro laptop. However when I try to set it up I get a message that the base station doesn't see my wireless card. The card is listed in system profiler but the base station doesn't recognize it. Is the Airport base station compatible with the newer airport extreme card in the Macbook Pro?

    Bill,
    Yes, the newer Airport Cards are backward compatible with the older 802.11b technology.
    How are you trying to set this up?
    Are you using Airport Setup Assistant?
    Try using the Assistant to "Change settings on an existing Airport Base Station".
    See if your computer will find the base station this way.
    Make sure you allow the Assistant to set up your computer using DHCP and IPv6. You can always change them back manually when you are finished.
    Let us know what happens.

  • Will all samsung led monitors work with macbook air?

    recommendations for best 27" led monitor ( not a gamer), watching movies, when not working ~$400?

    It is OK to use. See the quote below from Find the right power adapter and cord for your Mac notebook - Apple Support
    Power adapters for Apple notebooks are available in 45W, 60W, and 85W varieties. You should use the appropriate wattage power adapter for your Apple notebook. You can use a higher wattage adapter without issue, but doing this won't make your computer charge faster or operate any differently. Lower wattage adapters will not provide enough power.

    Does the Apple remote control work with MacBook Pro with retina? If yes, how can I sync it?
    Thanks!

    It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.

  • Does Adobe Photoshop Elements work with MacBook Pro with Retina display?

    Does Adobe Photoshop Elements work with MacBook Pro with Retina display, please?
    Have searched Adobe website for answer - most recent is 2013 answer, saying no.
    Contradicted by a staff ember who only referred to Photoshop, not Elements.
    Reason I need it is that iPhoto does not support very high resolution photos - which I have now scanned onto my MacBook and do not want to re-scan!! After 90 minutes at my local Genius bar (lovely folk, very conscientiously searching for an answer...), re-scanning was their final piece of advice.
    Help, please...

    Hello Smis,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I understand you are having issues with your HP Monitor on your MAC. I am providing you with an HP Support document: Updating a Monitor Driver, where it states under the sub-heading Using HP monitors on a Mac "HP monitors are not supported in a Mac environment. However, newer Macs use graphics with VESA modes and can display to most HP LCD monitors. To do this, connect the monitor to the Mac while the Mac is off, and then turn on the MAC. The monitor should operate at 60Hz. The INF and software for the HP monitor are for Microsoft Windows and cannot be run in a standard MAC OS environment."
    This being said all I can advise is that you check to see that the monitor is set to operat at 60Hz and contact Apple for assistance if that does not get your monitor displaying correctly.
    I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

  • Cinema Display (clear) with DVI/ADC box doesn't work with MacBook Pro

    Cinema Display (clear) with DVI/ADC box doesn't work with MacBook Pro when plugged in with a dvi to mini dvi cable. Any ideas what to do to make it work? I lugged the 23" 2500 miles into the wilderness and I need help

    Okay, here's an update: the DVI to ADC adapter does work with the Apple displays that I have tried, but it won't work with the Formac. I have tried multiple time to contact them, but to no avail... they don't even respond to threats of posting my opinion of them, which is this:
    DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM FORMAC! They make quality products, but their customer service is a big time joke! They won't take care of you.

    Generally signing out and signing in (signing out and back into the Creative Cloud application ) will fix this. If it isn't resolving the issue for you, let us know what you see and we can try something else.

  • MacBook Air Superdrive?? Does it work with MacBook Pro

    Hello,
    I need an external Superdrive. Does the MacBook Air Superdrive work with MacBook Pro??

    No, it does not (at least, not without opening the drive and modifying the internal components).
    External optical drives from Sony and LaCie work well with the MBP. Here's ONE EXAMPLE, here's ANOTHER EXAMPLE, both from Amazon.

  • Will a external Apple iSight work with the latest Mac Mini?

    Many Thanks

    Will a external apple isight work with the latest mac mini.
    Yes (if the external iSight works.)
    External iSights are great webcams, but they are getting old (as consumer electronics go) and some have had pretty rough treatment. You can test yours using the suggestions from this page:
      http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage4.html
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get your external iSight working with your mini.
    If you do not already have an external iSight and are considering buying one now,
    a new webcam (with warranty) may be a better choice.
    Many available alternatives are listed here: http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/

    Use one of the following ways to connect your FW400 external iSight to a FW800 Mac port:
    • To use the FW400 6pin-6pin cable that comes with iSight, you can use a 6pin-9pin adapter
      like one of these:

    • Some report that this low-priced alternative cable works:
      http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812189097
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get external iSight working with your mini. Once iSight works when it is the only FW connected device, you can try connecting other Firewire devices to determine whehter you can use any of them without conflict.
    ... if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
    With your 10.6.3 mini, you can use QuickTime X, iChat, Photo Booth, iMovie, and some of the other apps that are installed with OS X. Your Mac's Help for each of these apps can tell you how to use them with iSight (or other connected cameras.)
    Some more apps you can use are shown in this list:

    The web links for each app gives details on what functions is offers with your webcam.
