How long is the cable or wire? Also, I plan to use this cable to connect the audio and video from my iPhone 5 and MacBook to my TV - will it work?

The cable's only about 3 inches long. I use this cable for a portable tv. It comes out of my directv box, so I'm not real sure about it working with your iPhone.

The cable is about 7" long. Note it has female RCA connectors, so you will also need a male to male RCA patch cord to hook this up to any device like a television. If you are only using this to take audio from your phone or laptop, you're good to go. The video for those devices need other cables.

This cable did not work for me. I think there is a grounding issue, but I didn't bother sending it back since it was more trouble than it was worth.

Sorry, not a mac person. But, its a generic HDMI switch, any spec HDMI cord should switch and pass through. And this is why I am a PC person, no need to buy dedicated cords. Why make life so hard?

I have a macbook pro computer with minidisplayport on computer and use cable to attach to any hdmi tv with no problems. Make sure in preferences you select to turn audio on because it also comes out of the cable. :)

Actually no, you'll need a adapter cable which is sold trough Amazon or your local apple store. Hope it helps.

Assuming you are using a MAC. You don't need an additional cable, just change the Output in System Preferences/Sound settings. I use the cable without any issues on a Macbook Air plugged into my home theater as well as directly into my Samsung flat screen. Of course the output depends on what you are connected to such as the TV or Apple TV etc

This cable is intended to use with mini display port equipped screens such as the "older" apple Cinema Display. It works perfect with it, both video and data are transferred correctly.the thunderbolt port is backwards compatible with mini display port, so If you just want the video from your display it will work, however the data (such as audio) it's transferred via thunderbolt so you won't be able to use it at its full capacity. I would advise to look for a thunderbolt extension , do you can get its full power

Not sure about the Apple TV. I've never used this cable before this. I just wasn't getting audio from my tv to my sound bar when using my chrome cast. So I bought this cord and connected it and it works great. Sorry I'm not much help.

Absolutely! I ordered this cable with the "PNY A-DM-HD-W01 Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter" (also found here on Amazon and made by the same company). It works beautifully with my Macbook Pro on my Dell Monitor and Panasonic T.V. Full 1080p picture and video quality (depending on the resolution of the T.V ) and HDCP compatibility with iTunes and netflix... etc. Really good looking and streaming cable. Highly recommended!Also: I posted several pictures of this daisychained to the Thunderbolt Adapter. I hope they help.

Will this work on early 2008 Macbook? Since I want it to connect to my HDTV which has a digital optical audio out.

The one I bought worked. My grandson used it to connect the macbook to the tv, and is using it regularly. You may have gotten a defective one.

Flo, I chose not to buy this because I thought it was expensive. I ended up buying (from apple) for my macbook a cord that plugs into both the TV and the computer and watched tv that way. I understand the Apple TV is wireless and is 99.00 and Apple states it allows you to watch all your downloads on your tv. some man reviewed apple tv on amazon with great detail. I would refer you to look that up first. Good luck.

This not for just Apple products. This connection is mini display port to HDMI. (not thunderbolt)

Hey man, I bought my MacBook Pro back in 2009 and my cable works on mine for video no problem. The only thing is that you won't output any sound, so I just plug in a home theatre auxiliary cable into my headphone slot. Video is completely fine though! And yes, it goes directly from your mini DVI into the HDMI slot on your TV.

Not sure about non-apple product. I have used it with iphone, ipod and ipad though. Right now I have a wire running from the otherwise unused RGB "Tape" input connectors to a 3.5 mm "headphone" jack. I use something like this piece available on amazon for less than $5 http://www.amazon.com/eForCity-3-5mm-Auxiliary-Cable-Cord/dp/B0042DIZTE

I would not suggest buying this product. I tried using it with my MacBook Pro and AppleTV and it did not work.

Should work with your macbook with mini display port.. Any TV with rca inputs is suitable.

With a MAC I would try to get a ready made cable from apple..Customer service can't blame your problem on another manufacturer..It's all their stuff.. I don't like adapters. They introduce another source of resistance , they stick out further {bump into stuff, especially with portable devices], and any device with cable management they may not fit. TV/Monitors with a cable trough and a cover to route cables together..Anyway, I'd get it from AMAZON. You can send it back.
