Will this work with Shimian 27' [2560 X 1440] + Macbook Pro [2011]?

I'm not familier with the Shimian 27" [2560 X 1440], but it will work with a Macbook Pro [2011]. If the Shimian is capable of displaying less than 2560 X 1440 resolution, you will be able to display at a resolution that looks as good as the resolution on the laptop screen, resolution wise, and it will be larger so easier to see. That said, I have a 27" [2560 X 1440] IMON that I bought directly from Korea and the midyear 2011 MacBook Pro I drive doesn't have enough video card to sustain it. I am also supplying a 30" Apple Cine monitor with mine. So my answer for your Shimian is, "I don't know."

I bought this and it's been working really great on a Apple Cinema 30" display @ 2560x1600 with a Macbook Pro & a Microsoft Surface Pro 3. Since I've had no compatibility problems with it, I think it should work fine on the Shimian 27 too. Only thing I'd point out with this device is that it gets its power from USB (that's the 2nd plug you see in the image) and it draws quite a bit of power. If you need to plug in a lot of additional usb devices with it it'll need a powered usb hub.

HiThank you for your interest.But I'm sorry we can not guarantee the compatibility with Mac.And NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 is too low specs to run QHD resolutions.Thanks.

Yup, you'll need a mac display to HDMI (or DVI as monitor supports both) adapter.

I note that for my 2011 MacBook Pro that has a thunderbolt port, a 3rd party site claims "The maximum resolution supported on an external display is 2560x1600."

I am using this with a MacBook Pro, which has an HDMI port (depends on the model year). It works flawlessly with this set-up.

I'm using the cable and the monitor (dell u2713hm) at 2560x1440 (which is the highest resolution). I'm not using it with a mac mini, but the cable supports it.

Does this also mean it works with an iMac (27" monitor) with Mac OS-X Lion?

As long as your laptop has a mini display port which most MacBooks have. It works with both RCA cables and s video cables

I have not tried to use mine with a MacBook. However HDMI output is standardized. That means this device should, in theory, convert any HDMI output to VGA regardless of the source device.

Yes, I just tried it with my 2013 13" RMBP and with an HDMI to DVI adapter it will run, though it might only be at 30Hz im not sure. But it will run at 2560x1440.

Hi Jerry - this was bought to work with my wife's MacBook Pro, but did not "work" for anything more than 640x480 very irritating. We had to buy the Apple manufactured item. Not sure if it is due to Apple's shenanigans or a defect in this product. I cannot locate the item to answer your specific question. Sorry if this is not of much help (and sorry for the delay in responding - I was traveling).

Yes it should. Look for one that's running at least Mac OSX Lion. Hope this helps.

I own a MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) and it works fine between my MBP and my Yamakasi 2560 x 1440 monitor with Display Port input. I haven't personally tried it with a MacPro, but I don't see why it would not work since we're dealing with the same port standards. Perhaps you can give it a try. If it doesn't work you can return it.

I've heard of at least two people who bought this product for their Macbook Pro and it worked fine. Make sure your MBP has either DVI video output or an HDMI port.

The small end will plug into a macbook pro., but if your monitor does not support displayport, you may have to get a cable with a dvi connector at the other end

Hi Kara,I too have an early 2011 Macbook Pro and an HDTV. This cable worked perfectly for me.

It works with my vintage Mac Pro 1.1 running Lion and updated 1 gb graphics card and the $99 Apple adapter with the usb connector for additional power. I am also running a view sonics 27" screen at lower res simultaneously
