I got Macbook Air 2013 and hdtv. Can I mirror the screen of the mac on the TV using this cable? Thanks!

Did this work for you? I too have a 2013 MacAir. The Thunderbolt port is NOT the same size as a MiniDisplayPort on these newer Mac Airs. I see many MDP to HDMI cables on the market that say "Thunderbolt compatible," but it seems they are compatible only with an earlier (different size port) Thunderbolt.

Yeah you should be able to. We think this cable is amazing because we don't need any other attachment. We leave it plugged to the TV HDMI slot, then just plug the thunderbolt end to our mac pro when needed. After the initial set-up on your mac settings for display and audio, it automatically mirrors when connected. Love it!

Yes you can. I use it now almost daily and I set it up to mirror my Mac. You can also use it as an extended screen

Yes, it'll work for that. But it's a crappy cable and I'd recommend just getting an AmazonBasics HDMI cable and a dongle. This is cheaper but mine was totally busted within a month.

If you see the screen that means it's working. Go to the Apple logo and choose System Preferences->Displays. If you are trying to use it as a Television to play media from the computer to the TV, you should probably click "Arrangement" and then click "Mirror Displays" at the bottom. It will then show whatever is on your desktop. Right now it is using the TV as a second monitor, so you can drag windows over to the tv off the right side of your main laptop onto the tv.

You want to look at an hdmi edid emulator. I tried one but it didn't work, so I went with an AppleTV, and the Compulab product to enable AirPlay mirroring.

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.

Yes. But depending on the mac you may need a thunderbolt connector. This has vga and hdmi so if your mac had dvi you would also need dvi to hdmi connector.

No, I have a Macbook Air and the HDMI port is much smaller. This product will not fit. I bought this instead and it works very well:http://www.amazon.com/Neewer®-Displayport-ThunderBolt-Adapter-MacBook/dp/B007MYZ4QC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1403980493&sr=8-3&keywords;=macbook+air+hdmi+adapter

Yes. Purchase a miniDisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. I use this interchangeably between an iMac and a MacBook Pro.

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!

The Fosmon mini displayPort (MiniDP/mDp) to HDMI works well. The problem I had at first with my MacBook Pro wasthat I did not have my display option set to "Mirror" the computer's screen. Now I watch movies etc. on my HDTV.

Hi, sorry, I don't have a MacBook Air, so I can't comment with certainty. But, if the Air has a HDMI port, then it should work, with iTunes, without an issue. It connects my Apple TV to a VGA projector perfectly.

Yes it should be. Check the ports on the left side of your Mac. The port you need should look like a little thunderbolt, and at the end of the thunderbolt there is an arrow. That is the port. the next step is making sure your television has the HDMI port, most new televisions do. Some old ones don't.

Don't have experience with a Mac, but we have connected an HP laptop using an HDMI cable.

Yes. I connected this to my late 2012 iMac thunderbolt port. Transmits both video and audio signal. Great for mirroring screen to HDTV.

I connected this to a late 2012 iMac through the thunderbolt port. Worked great to mirror high res screen resolution to HDTV.

I made sure that everything was plugged in and I turned off my matchbook air and still nothing. My tv shows HDMI/DVI but it doesn't connect to the macbook. Not sure what else to do any ideas?

I've used this with the 13" 2013 Macbook Air with OS X 10.9 Mavericks with no problems. Now I'm on the public beta 2 of OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) also with no problems. My MBA is connected via thunderbolt to a 24" 1080p monitor AND this adapter (USB3 > Etekcity adapter > HDMI attachment > TV). It is obviously quite a bit delayed response time but I only use it for video playback (which works fine). The only difference between the 2013 and 2014 models of macbook airs are the minor processor speed bump; the processors are otherwise the same.

I did exactly what you want to do. I have just purchased a Mac Mini and used the HDMI out from the Mac into the HDMI in on a Vizio 1080p 24 inch widescreen LCD TV/Monitor. Absolutely no problems. The screen was recognized on boot up and I get great picture and sound. I did not even need to adjust the size of the screen.
