Q: Is there a way to connect my 30" Cinema Display to my late 2015 iMac
I have an old 30" Cinema Display that I bought new, I love it. It still works perfectly, no problems at all. I also recently just bought a 21.5" iMac i7 (late 2015) which only has 2 thunderbolt connections. I have a dual link DVI to mini display adapter, but it doesn't work with this setup. Is there any way that I can still use my Cinema Display as a 2nd screen? Or do I have to retire it?

The Dual-link DVI adapter should work.

Is the adapter's USB cable plugged into the computer? Is the Mini DisplayPort plug pushed in all the way into the Thunderbolt port (no metal showing)?
