Hi -- I want to connect my Mac mini to my old VGA monitor. Will this do it? Thanks.

Yes, if you have a mini display port. I bought a few of these to leave one at work, home and one in my bag. They work great!

No it won't!I got it and it was a waist of money; get this one HDE Mini DisplayPort to VGA Female Adapter for Mac

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;=0Happy Dual Monitor computing!!!

you would need an hdmi cable if you have the newer macbook pro's with an hdmi input. Otherwise you do need a thunderbolt adapter for vga.

Since the latest Mac Mini has the Intel HD 4000 it will be able to work with 4k with this adapter. But additionally you will need to use a pixel clock patch (you can find it via google) to make it work.

You will use a Thunderbolt or MiniPoprt Display to VGA converter to connect the Mac computer to the device's video input. Here's the link for the product manual so you can view the back panel of the device, file:///C:/Users/irish.simbajon/Desktop/PDFs/man_f1dh10xl_pm01808.pdf.

I could not find anything with the model numbers provided, but as long as your Mac uses a Mini DisplayPort and you're trying to connect it to a device with a VGA cable the connection will work.

I just purchased a VGA cable and connected it to my MacBook via a mini dvi adapter. But my Samsung LCD TV says "not supported mode." What now?

I just tried this and it does not appear to work (it could be my DVI to VGA adapter, but I don't think it's broken). You are better off buying a mini display port to VGA adapter.

In fact I ordered 3 of them and am suposed to hook them up to 3 mac minis but when I tried to do that I had the same problem. The solution is to use HDMI cord. It is supposed to be for videos but that will work. I am travelling and still have not hooked up mine. Best of luck

Well this just holds Dell monitors, that CAN connect to a Mac. As long as you have the appropriate adapters. For example, my mac mini has an HDMI port, and a Mini Display (Thunderbolt) port. So I have 2 adaptors, 1 HDMI to DVI, and 1 Mini-Display to DVI, and it works perfectly

If you have an adapter for a VGA input yes. Mac uses other inputs depending on what year your mac is.

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&gc;lid=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.

Indeed you can connect an Apple Mac Mini to an HD monitor via the HDMI port at the rear of the unit. You can also use a a wireless Apple keyboard. I hope that answers your question.

you need a mini DVI to VGA adaptor for macbook. its usually less than 10 dollars. Try this one: http://www.amazon.com/Veecome-Adapter-Cable-Macbook-Round-head/dp/B008FMBLVM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1384209024&sr;=8-1&keywords;=vga+for+macbook

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.

If you have an HDMI out - then yes directly. You have a DisplayPort/Thunderbolt - then get a DisplayPort-HDMI adapter - then you can connect it, this is how I connected my parents mac mini to their HD TV. Sound is separate in this case. If you are also looking for sound to travel - The best route may be use an AppleTV and send your display to the AppleTV.
