I have a mid-2009 (5,3) model MacBook Pro with a MiniDisplay port and an HDMI-ready TV. Will this product work for me / do I need supplemental ones?

i previously said: if you have a mini-display port, i think it would work. we have two macs in our household (mid 08 and mid 10) and they both work. but i don't know what i was thinking... the mid 08 mac has a special adaptor and a separate wire for the audio so this cord doesn't work on it. but if you have a mini display port you should be fine. sorry for the confusion!

Yes, as long as you have a mini dvi port (macbook 4,1 should have) You will also need the hdmi cable of course, and remember that this port does not transmit audio, so you will need a solution for audio as well (audio will still come from either macbook speakers, or from the headphone port)

It looks like all you would need is an adapter cable from the Macbook Pro mini displayport to VGA, which costs about $30 from the Apples Store or about $10 on Amazon. The reviews look generally positive.

As long as your buy the appropriate adapter cable from whatever connection your MacBook uses to either HDMI/DVI, there's no reason why it wouldn't work perfectly fine.

Yes the mini display port supports HDMI. I have an adapter that allows you to plug an HDMI cable into your Macbook Pro via the Mini Display Port.

It should do as the Macbook Pro has a spare Mini display port adapter not locked in to the docking station but it is defeating the purpose of a Docking station. It has an HDMI adapter on the back of the docking station which you should leave plugged in to your monitor. I guess if you only have DVI or VGA you would do this....

Victoria - I use the cable for exactly that purpose. As long as your TV has N HDMI input it should work fine for you. I am using a new MacBook Pro. Hope that helps.

Yes it will. Your setting will have to be changed so your display is either "duplicated" on the external screen or "extended" - whichever you prefer. The issue with MacBooks though is that before about 2010, the HDMI port does not transfer sound in addition to video through the cable - you would have to connect an audio in cable from your computer's headphone jack to the television digital audio in as well. Research some Apple forums on the specifics for your model.

I have a Late 2011 MacBook Pro and it required going into the preferences and editing the video and sound outputs. But before doingvthe above, make sure you push the HDMI cable all the way into the port by pushing the wire connecting to the HDMI doggle in. Please refer to my review. I hope this helps.

I think it may be model dependent - Most Mac products that I am aware of have switched to "micro-dvi". So Yes this cable will work for you - but you will also need to buy an adapter "mini dvi - hdmi". This one is only a few bucks : http://www.amazon.ca/Mini-DVI-female-Adapter-Cable-Apple/dp/B001T4EDZO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1403045263&sr;=8-1&keywords;=mini+dvi+to+hdmi

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

I use one of these: ASIN: B00C7RJQPY "Cable Matters Gold Plated Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt™ Port Compatible) to DisplayPort Cable in Black 6 Feet - 4K Resolution Ready" with mine. It works great. Very happy with my monitor purchase. No regret at all.I have a MacBook Pro mid2010.

Yes. I have used it with my MacBookPro and a miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable.

There is a Display Port to Mini Display port cable so ---> mDP to macbook, DP to monitor, walla 4k goodness, make sure your macbook is late 2013 for 4k to work, it will only work @ 30hz under mac os, but will run fine @ 60hz in windows via bootcamp,

Yes, it will. However, depending on the year of your MBP, you will probably need an adapter. If you have a Macbook Pro that is from 2009-2013, you will need a Mini Display Port to HDMI adapter to connect your MBP to this monitor using an HDMI cable.

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!
