Hi, I bought 'Kanex XD HDMI to Mini DisplayPort Converter for 27 inch iMac' and I tried to use it for new iMac to use xbox. but it doesn't work.

Xbox? I don't know about that. As I said, it works when you want to export video only, not audio, out of iMac or Mac air.

Hi, It might be a bad on or maybe a cable? My works perfectly with my airbook. Send it back, some of these type connectors I've bought on Amazon weren't good- and I did get a FULL refund & one that worked!

Yes, I have ours fed into two Sharp 70" led panels and the HDMI audio feed works through both panels with no issues at all. The room has its own audio so we don't run the sound on the panels, but the option is there and works. Did you get all the way into the sound settings on your mini? I'm not a Mac whiz, so I don't know exactly which steps you take, but there was more than one until we saw the HDMI choice. Actually the Mac is a dual boot to win7pro and it works on that operating system too. I can't stress how happy I was when I got my hands on the accell adapters, passive adapters just plain screwed me around in circles!

I cannot see what the problem with this adapter and a Mac would be?? I'm using it with a Mac Pro late 2013 and a 4K Dell display. It works flawlessly with full resolution and 60 Hz - under Mac OS 10.9 as well as Windows 8.1.

I have a Macbook Air and use the Apple adapter to HDMI, and wish to connect to a Infocus IN102 DLP projector through the RGB/Component video socket. Sound is not an issue as I use a separate speaker system. Will the AmazomBasics HDMI to DVI cable work?Thanks,Bulldog1803

Sorry Joykat, this won't work with both. You won't really be able to find a single adapter to work with both because - if memory serves - a surface RT has a mini hdmi port and the type of port on an iMac varies by model. If you know what model you have, I might be able to help you out a little bit more.

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

All that matters is how your connecting it. If I know my macs, you either have a Mini-DVI or MiniDisplay Port port. Regardless of which, you'll need an adapter to get the output to be DVI or HDMI, depending on the monitor your buying. Once you have the correct wires, it should work great. The only caveat I can think of is the graphics card inside your mini. Unless you have a really old mac, it should be able to output to the monitor's native resolution.

I have a 2000 vintage Cinema Display and I bought a used DVI to ADC converter for my Mac mini and it works great. It is physically (relatively) large like an older power brick but it works fine. You just have to hunt for a used converter.

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.

The thunderbolt cable only works with the Apple thunderbolt monitor. You can get a thunderbolt adapter that will change it to DVI/VGA/HDMI fairly cheap

There is a dongle that plugs in mini-hdmi. Not sure if that works but you need something of that sort. C&E Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Female Adapter Cable for Apple Macbook, 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!

No. This is a VGA-TO-HDMI converter. You'll need a HDMI-TO-VGA converter to connect your xbox to a computer monitor.

YES! I run my mac book pro with Mini DisplayPort out (mini DisplayPort works in the Thunderbolt jack) to the dual link converter from Apple. It works great and I get full resolution. You will need this adapter and a dual link DVI cable (I think the Crossover monitor comes with the DVI cable).

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: Cable Matters Gold Plated Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt Port Compatible) to DisplayPort Cable in White 6 Feet - 4K Resolution Ready

You can take the Composite (Yellow = Video, Red and White for Audio) out from a device and the box will convert the signals to HDMI. I found the quality to be very good. If I read your question right, the answer is NO. I do not have an Xbox and my Monitors all have HDMI.
