Will Mac Pro Air connect with Thunderbolt Monitor

I'm searching for a new computer. Confused about the Thunderbolt Monitor. It will not connect to iPads will it connect to 2008 and 2012 models? How does this work and what is the benefits of this monitor? Was going to get a desk top and noticed the Thunderbolt monitor. Please give me some information regarding this item.
And why won't the iPad connect to this monitor.

The Thunderbolt monitor will connect to the 2012 MacBook Air but not the 2008 model as this one does not have a Thunderbolt port.
The benefits of the monitor are just a bigger screen with more real estate (screen space - there is actually more room for things on the screen, it's not just a stretched version of the MacBook Air screen). It also will charge your MacBook Air when the Air is docked and you are able to use it with your MacBook in 'clamshell' mode which means you can keep the MacBook closed if you have an external mouse/trackpad and keyboard to use.

  • New Mac Pro display issues with Thunderbolt display

    When connected to a 27inch Thunderbolt display after a while I get vertical blue lines on the display. If I plug my Macbook Air into the screen, after a while the blue lines clear. How do I find out if it's the Mac Pro or the Display?

    Thanks Turbostar, that's exactly right, it takes about 30 minutes having the Air plugged in and the stripes disappear.

  • Is there an adaptor or interface that will allow me to connect a thunderbolt device to my late 2011 Mac Pro Firewire 800 port?

    Is there an adaptor or interface that will allow me to connect a thunderbolt device to my late 2011 Mac Pro Firewire 800 port?

    lllaass is correct.
    To use ThunderBolt devices, a computer must have left the factory with a ThunderBolt port.
    There are no known work-arounds, and there are not likely to be any because Intel controls the chips and is not interested in anything less than the full [including Video features] implementation.

    Great information.

  • Will mac pro and monitors ordered together ship at the same time?

    Will Mac Pro and Thunderbolt monitors, if ordered together, ship at the same time? Or will they ship the in-stock monitors now initiating the Applecare start date for the whole order even though the Mac Pro is not expected to ship until sometime in March?

    I ordered the new Mac Pro (model 6.1) on December 18, 2013 along with a 27 in. Apple thunderbolt display.  The fully maxxed out new Mac pro shipped on January 8, 2014 and arrived January 13, 2014.  My Thunderbolt display shipped within 1-2 days of placing the order, i.e. the week of December 18th and arrived before Christmas.  A few days after receivng my new Mac Pro, I received the Apple Care paperwork and both the new Mac Pro and the Apple Thunderbolt display were listed with a start date of January 7, 2014, i.e. the day that my new Mac {ro was prepared for shipment -- not the day my thunderbolt display was shipped.

  • Do you know how to keep my mac pro air to connect automatically to wifi

    I have problem keeping my Mac pro air to connect automatically to wifi .

    It depends on what your settings are set at.
    Are you talking about to your own Network, or are you talking about recognising and connecting to Hot Spots.
    Go up to the left of the date and you will see the Airport Icon single click it and it should give you the Networks that you are in range of, You connect by choosing the network you want to join. If you need more info be more specific what you need.

  • HT5219 Can I connect my thunderbolt monitor to my MacBook Pro and iMac at the same time

    I am wanting to connect my thunderbolt monitor to my MacBook Pro as a secondary monitor when running programs in windows 7 thru boot camp, and also have it connected to my iMac as a secondary monitor when working thru apps on my iMac. Is there a way to do this without having to connect and disconnect cables each time I want to switch.

    I don't think it can be done without a KVM switch, & not sure they can handle that resolution.

    haha, so now i'm thinking. I'm learning the terminal as fast as i can but there are several lines of codes and commands in there that throws up red flags to me that i don't fully understand. It just looks fishy too me. It would be highly appreciated if someone could just check this out just to tell me that i don't need to worry about it. Or point me in the right direction. I just feel un easy about this. ha.

  • My Mac Pro (Late 2013) with an Apple SSD as the only storage will not restart

    I have a Mac Pro (Late 2013) with an APPLE SSD SM0256F as the only storage.  When I restart all I get is the spinning bars. I have to manually hold the power button down to force shutdown. I have let it try to restart for as long as 30 minutes. It will start just fine from a shutdown.  I am running Yosemite 10.10.2 (14C1510). I have used Disk Utility with no errors. The only time I need to restart is after a system upgrade. I have tried, as others have suggested, selecting the drive from the Startup Drive preferences with no difference. Any help is much appreciated!

  • How Can I use 2 Macs and a PC with two monitors

    This is for my office at work.
    I currently am using dual monitors and sharing those between a G4 and a PC. I'm using a Belkin switch box for the two computers. I'm adding a Mac Pro. I'm thinking I might use the Mac Pro by itself at another workstation but I would like to use it at my current workstation along with my other machines.
    I'm getting a new 23" monitor with the Mac Pro. I want to use it as my main monitor, then use one of my other monitors as a second screen. Is it possible to use two monitors with 3 computers? I would have to use the new keyboard and mouse (both will be standard, not wireless) on both of the macs and use the PC keyboard and mouse.
    Thank You
    Jim

    I would use the new Mac Pro as the main workstation and attach your mouse, keyboard and your new monitor to it.
    Then use the Belkin Switch Box to connect 1 monitor to the G4 and PC.
    Download and configure 'Synergy' (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/) on the new Mac Pro (as the primary) and the G4 and PC (as secondary) - This will allow you to deal with only one keyboard and mouse.
    I'm with Malcolm, I would download and install VMware Fusion. VM the PC w/ Converter (http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/) and only deal with the new Mac Pro and G4. With the new Mac Pro, you can fire up the PC VM with 2 cores and have it set to a secondary space. You will not notice the difference.

  • HT5219 how can I connect two thunderbolt monitors to my macmini in windows 8 and bootcamp? Works fine in OSX

    how can I connect two thunderbolt monitors to my macmini in windows 8 and bootcamp? Works fine in OSX

    Did you try to hook up both monitors to the Belkin adaptor? Trying will determine if your monitor has a bad input port. See if the Belkin adaptor is the problem. I have never used that specific adaptor, but I have always had luck with the Dr. Bott's DVI for ADC adaptor. Best of luck.

  • MacBook looses connection with external monitor

    Hey Apple humans!
    I have a MacBook Pro (mid 2009) and an external monitor Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 connected via DVI/DisplayPort. Works fine since the mid of 2009 but in the last few days the MacBook looses connection with the monitor and isn't able to get the connection up again. The button "Monitore recognise" (don't know the exact translation of it in english) in preferences doesn't work, even a reboot brings nothing.
    I've changed nothing on the setup, only the newest patches for OS X were installed. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english, right now I'm to ****** to concentrate

    have a Mac Pro with 2 Samsung syncmasters and after updating os x to 10.6.6 computer loose the connection with the monitors. Randomly it seems, might work for a while and suddenly go black.
    Have to restart the Mac. I'm sure it's related to the os update. Tried all resets, throwing prefs, emptying
    cache but nothing helps.
