Q: LED Cinema Display Issue
Hi,
Recently I got my hands on a Mac Mini (Late 2014) and a 2008 model LED Cinema Display. Whenever I plug in the display into the Mac Mini, the screen flickers and goes black. I have gotten the display to work a few times by doing this.
1. Turn on Mac Mini without LED Cinema Display plugged in but with HDMI plugged in.
2. Change resolution of HDMI screen to 1024x768.
3. Plug in the display through the Lightning port.
4. Turn off Mac.
5. Turn on.
When I turn it on, the screen works. But, whenever I unplug my HDMI cable, the display goes black again and doesn't turn on until I do the steps over again. What is the issue? I believe it's more of a software issue than a hardware one.
I'm on El Capitan by the way.
