Can I connect cinema display A1081 to 2013 MacBook pro via HDMI? I was using the display on my old 2014Mac mini-( nightmarishly slow)
I want to connect it to my MacBook pro- I have the HDMI Adapter from Mac mini and there is an HDMI Porton the laptop. Are they compatible? or do I have to shell out more dough for another Adapter for THUNDERBOLT?
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.4
Nothing at all? Do you not see your Mac's wallpaper?
Haver you gone into System Preferences->Displays->Arrangement? Does the monitor not appear there?
What resolution is set there? The monitor may not support the full resolution being output by the Mac.

That Cinema Display provides a DVI interface, but at under 1920 wide is Single-Link DVI. It should be electrically transformable from HDMI, but you may be encountering "too many adapters".
You likely require a direct to DVI adapter, or an ACTIVE adapter (so called because it re-Drives the signals at the required higher levels of genuine DVI and HDMI, not lower levels of converted DisplayPort).
The adapter should work yes. HDMI is universal. That means any HDMI connector or adapter should work with any HDMI port.
Thanks, Phl0124!
But when I connect it nothing happens. do I need to do anything?
