Will this work with my Macbook/ Macbook Pro

I'm asking this question in a vague enough way that the answer will at least help people with their questions
1) I have a first-gen Macbook. Will this work and/or what adapters will I need for the monitor
2) I have a Macbook Pro, most recent before this refresh. Will it work with the monitor and/or what adapters will I need for the monitor

None of the new models released this week have any sort of DVI port. They all use a new graphics port called the Mini DisplyPort. This port does not adhere to the DVI standards because it is a new standard in itself. Google DisplayPort and you can find some technical info on it.
Apple has said that this will become the graphics port on all of its products in the future.

  • I have 23 inch Apple HD Display. Will this work with my MacBook Pro? How shall I connect it?

    I have 23 inch Apple HD Display. Will this work with my MacBook Pro? How shall I connect it?

    yarova818,
    there were two different 23-inch Apple Cinema HD displays made. The first one was made between 2002 and 2004, and has an ADC connector. The second one was made between 2004 and 2008, and has a DVI-D connector.
    If you have the display with an ADC connector, then according to this Apple page, your display will work with your MacBook Pro if it’s a 13-inch or 15-inch model. If you have a first-generation MacBook Pro, you’d need an Apple DVI to ADC Adapter (or equivalent) to connect them. If you have a Unibody or Retina MacBook Pro, then you’d also need a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter (or equivalent) to complete the connection. A Retina model would also have the option of using a third-party HDMI to DVI-D adapter to complete the connection with the DVI to ADC adapter.
    If you have the display with a DVI-D connector, then if you have a first-generation MacBook Pro, you should be able to plug it in directly. If you have a Unibody or Retina MacBook Pro, then the Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter would let you make the connection. Again, Retina models also would have the option of using a third-party HDMI to DVI-D adapter.

    Thanks!

    No, the MBP's security slot is reinforced for just that purpose. If it gets yanked on, damage from the MBP being pulled off the table/desk much more likely than any damage to the slot itself...
    Hope this helps...

  • Will this work on my Macbook Pro 13" (Early 2011)

    I was looking for a game to play on my Macbook Pro and I was wondering if Call of Duty 2 would work on it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ETJJAE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i02 I I am running Lion 10.7.4. I actually already bought this product but hesitant on opening it because I have read a few reviews of people having problem with it. I also went to the Aspyr website. http://www.aspyr.com/games/call-of-duty-2 I'll return it to Amazon if it doesn't work. Please help!

    Try different USB cables.
    Try a different enclosure.
    Try all USB ports.
    Try it on another Mac.
    Is no success, the SSD may be DOA.
    Ciao.

  • Getting comcast cable/internet...Will it work with my Macbook Pro?

    We are getting Comcast tomorrow...we currently have AT&T internet and my Mac is always getting kicked off my internet, onto a "belkin54g" that barely works. This is getting really annoying, but tomorrow we are getting the comcast internet/cable thingy.  So is comcast going to work with my laptop O.K.? or will we have trouble with that too? because I am really tired of being kicked offline all the time.     Thanks!

    It sounds like you're having problems with your router, not with your ISP. If that's the case, and you don't replace the router, you'll probably continue to have the same problems.

  • Is there a compact flash and SDXC card reader with USB3 and or thunderbolt connections that will work with new MacBook Pro retina laptops running OSX Mavericks please?

    Is there a compact flash and SDXC card reader with USB3 and or thunderbolt connections that will work with new MacBook Pro retina laptops running OSX Mavericks please?

    Yes, I too had this problem.
    I was issued an update from Apple for a new version software as well as a new version of Lightrooom and now it shows up on the desktop and in finder as it should.
    MacBook Pro Retina running 10.8.2 (12C54)

    Hope that helps.

  • What SSD (Solid State Drives) will work with a MacBook Pro unibody  A1278

    What SSD (Solid State Drives) will work with a MacBook Pro unibody  A1278?
    I see all these options and I would like to know proper dimensions and speed:
    SATA III (6 Gbit/s)
    SATA II (3 Gbit/s)
    SATA (1.5 Gbit/s)
    PATA (IDE)
    mSATA
    PCI Express
    Thanks!

    Thanks! It looks like Sata III is the way to go and most are happy with this one:

  • I have an 11" MacBook Air.  When I plug in my VGA adapter to my Thunderbolt port, the computer doesn't recognize it ... unless I reboot the computer.  Is there another way to get the computer to recognize the adapter?  (It works with my MacBook Pro)

    I have an 11" MacBook Air.  When I plug in my VGA adapter to my Thunderbolt port, the computer doesn't recognize it ... unless I reboot the computer.  Is there another way to get the computer to recognize the adapter?  (It works with my MacBook Pro)

    Thanks for the useful feedback, Knucklesmac. I agree. I must have blown something on the logic board -- because I had a faulty old KVM switch that would not switch between computers without some nasty hot-plugging/unplugging the VGA video cables. (wince!). It's like when Dizzy Dean ruined his arm because a line drive hit him in the foot and he readjusted his mechanics around the injury. I take the blame because this has been a great computer, and does not deserve any blame.
    If it will help anyone else reading this thread, C2G (née Cables to Go) has some interesting ideas for still getting external video out of this computer:
    -USB-to-VGA
    http://www.cablestogo.com/product/30545
    -Convert s-video or composite video signals to high resolution VGA
    http://www.cablestogo.com/product/40971
    The price range is $75-$85, which doesn't make horse sense to me for such an old computer -- which has a lot of life in it anyway, because its own 15" monitor is not chopped liver.

  • I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

    I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
    Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

  • Facebook and Hotmail will not work on my Macbook pro

    Facebook and Hotmail will not work on my Macbook pro. I have tried safari and firefox. I have unloaded and reloaded an old version of firefox and still no luck. When go to ebay it opens but looks very weird. I am using Mac OS X Version 10.6.6 with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. I am so frustrated, I have tried everything I can think of and still no luck.

    Good of you to offer the detail you did (a lot of people don't bother) but it still is not quite enough. Texting that it "looks very weird" just leaves me blank. Most basic remedy for browser issues is to use Safari to google "adobe flash" and download a fresh file & install. Can't think of anything else given what you've posted....

  • My iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone

    my iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone.  However, when I go to authorize my computer, it says it is already authorized.  How do I fix this?

    You can't change the Apple ID that the Authorize dialog comes up with by default. It's showing you that Apple ID for a reason: it means that the items you want to play were purchased using that Apple ID and therefore you need to authorize your computer with that Apple ID. Changing the Apple ID given completely defeats the entire purpose.
    If you don't know the password to the given Apple ID, then you will no longer be able to play those items.

  • Hey Dears, I was working with my Macbook pro 2011, then i have some flash light in the screen, so i shutdown the computer, when i try to open it again i had a black screen, so any one of you have any idea about what should i have to do ?

    Can you start Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
    You can also do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

  • Is there a security surveillance system that works with a MacBook Pro or iPod touch?

    Is there a security surveillance system that works with a MacBook Pro or iPod Touch?

    Problem is most vehicles can't supply enough power to charge a MacBook Pro battery, not without placing a generator in the engine compartment someplace like police cars and campers have.
    Apple provides the MagSafe Airline Adapter but it's designed for 15V, not the 12V of vehicles, then it's only to keep the battery from discharging on airplanes, it won't charge it.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB441Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDEwMQ&mco=MTA4NDE2Mjc
    "It's designed for 15V DC that you find on airplanes. If you are the DIY type, you can make your own 15V DC automotive socket by using an automotive universal laptop supply to step up the car's 12V to 15V"
    I found this online:
    http://www.365laptop.us/product_info.php?language=en&currency=USD&products_id=10 64
    Notice the device says:
    "Input: 11-14V DC 8Amp MAX "   - Cars are 12V DC.
    Output: -DC 15V.... the same as the Airline Adapter
    Looks like one needs to cut and splice the two parts/wires one needs together.
    This 12V to 15V conversion is a lot better/streamlined than trying to upconvert 12V DC to a whopping 120 AC and then your Mac's power brick is downconverting 120AC to what it needs in DC to try to charge the battery which the vehicle can't supply the wattage for anyway.
    Apple has a patent on the MagSafe adapter, they don't provide a 12V to 15V converter + MagSafe adaptor for the car. It would be nice if they did though.

  • Why has my USB Superdrive suddenly stopped working with my MacBook Pro?

    Why has my Apple USB SuperDrive suddenly stopped working with my MacBook Pro?
    Normally I plug it in and insert a CD or DVD and it is immediately recognised, but today it took the DVD, made a 'whirring' noise for a few seconds and then stopped without being recognised.

    Try the options on this list:

  • Will FCPX work on my macbook pro?

    Will FCPX work on my macbook pro? Will it be really slow?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It depends on your card. See > http://www.apple.com/finalcutpro/specs/ You need a Intel HD Graphics 3000 or better. If you haven't got this graphic card, you can't use Final Cut Pro.
    Also, note that it will work properly if you have a dedicated card, like the one that has got a 15-inch MacBook Pro
