Q: Targed mode not working - is my laptop not compatible with thunderbolt cable?
Tried hooking up my 13" macbook - I think I bought it in 2011, it's a 1.4 GHz Intel core 2 duo, to my macbook pro - this one is a better one, and just noticed this one does have the little thunder icon by the port, the old 13 inch one doesn't. So, is the old one not compatible with the thunderbolt and that's why the target mode isn't working? When I switch the pro on, after hooking them up, press, T, I can see that thunder and Y sign on pro, but nothing on the 13"inch one
What should I do know... Are there any other cables available, or is my 13" simply too old for all this? thanks x
(My previous question Can I back up my macbook contents to another macbook using firewire cable? First macbook wont start up (utility cant repair it) )
