Yes, I have a Microsoft Surface and I connect with My ViewSonic - 28" LED HD Monitor without any problem.

Yes, exactly. I have a Lenovo laptop but otherwise exactly as you say: Mini Display Port to HDMI.

I've used it with a Mac Mini using both HDMI and VGA (need male to male VGA cable and Apple's VGA adaptor). VGA worked best - you could accommodate audio with an inexpensive stereo mini-jack to RCA Y cable - I did not.

I have. After a few months my Mac was not detecting my external display. I was able to unplug this adapter a few times and eventually it would detect the tv display. However after another month or so it stopped working all together. I ordered a replacement and it has been working so far, there are few options for early 2010 MacBooks.

I have this connected to my MAC desktop monitor, and then have 2 devices attached to it. I've had no problems. Very happy with it.

I am using it with a 2011 mac mini. Purchased the cheapest mini display port to display port cable on Amazon and it worked without any effort. I imagine you have already tried going in system preferences then Displays to see if it shows up. Wish I could help more.

Sabrina, I connected it to my Macbook Pro through a "Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter". You can buy it from amazon for less than $10. Good luck!

Since the 5770 has only one display port, and only one hdmi (as well as two single-link DVI ports) I'd suggest hooking one up with the (included, in my case) HDMI cable and one to the display port. The display port on the monitor is full size, so if you're connecting it to a comp with a mini display port, you'd need either a cable from full size to mini, or a regular display port cable with a full-size-to-mini adapter at the end. If you happen to have purchased a recent Mac laptop or Mac Mini, check for an adapter. Depending on the model and when you bought it, a DVI-to-mini display port adapter, or a display port to mini display port, or even an HDMI to mini display port adapter may have been included.

You will need a converter! It might be an Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter, but I apologize that I cannot remember exactly - I bought one, and it looked very much like this: http://www.showmecables.com/product/Mini-DisplayPort-to-DVI-Adapter.aspx?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cse&utm_campaign=2914&zmam=49733141&zmac=5&zmas=1&zmap=2914&gclid=CMWt0KeH_L4CFbRj7AodaB8AEg. Check to make sure I'm not telling you the wrong thing! I also looked into HDMI converters, but I don't think so fit. I was able to check one out from my local library, because they keep HDMI converters to connect Macs to overhead projectors, and that allowed me to try and find out that it didn't work.

I am using it for a 2nd monitor for my MacBookPro. If your MacMini has a thunderbolt connection, I don't see why it wouldn't work for a 2nd monitor. In doing a quick search, it appears this is supported (providing you connect the 1st monitor via the hdmi-dvi adapter). https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4732629?start=0&tstart=0 Happy Dual Monitor computing!!!

You probably need a HDMI to mini-display port, I bought this one for my MacBook when I purchased this monitor as it doesn't come w/ one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004CAGDUA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is the Video Support for Apple Mac Mini MD387LL/A Desktop: Thunderbolt digital video output * Native Mini DisplayPort output * DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter (sold separately) * VGA output using Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter (sold separately) * Dual-link DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter (sold separately) You would need to also buy a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter. The monitor comes with a VGA cable. To support the VGA output, you would need to also purchase the Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter. Otherwise, the monitor works great.

I am not sure how your MacBook conects to external monitors but a standard VGA cable works just fine when conecting to a PC. I hope this helps

Hello Margaret, honestly I don't know, but I doubt you can do that. This Mac mini needs to be connected to an external display. Thanks forYou're quit and great luck!

This is meant only for Macbooks that come without HDMI cables. You insert the small end into the mini display port and the other end into the HDMI cable.
