External Monitor

I have a Macbook Pro, purchased around 2015 & updated to Monterey 12.3.1. I would like to connect to an external monitor and have not been able to through usb or hdmi ports. I tried troubleshooting and noticed my software does not show all of the options similar to what I've seen online in System Preferences > Displays & Battery, for example.


Any information would be helpful, thank you.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.3

Hi,

If your MacBook Pro has Thunderbolt(2) port, connect external monitor via Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter for the monitor which has HDMI port.
