Brilliant! I tried plugging other USB-C items in there but nothing was recognized by the laptop. It does recognize the power cord though.
Many thanks!
Thanks Malcolm! This is just what I need. Those are all available on Amazon as well.
All I have to say is thank god for UpTab.
To Pete and Malcolm,
I am having this exact same problem. I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017, Touch Bar) that I want to connect up to a beautiful 30" Cinema Display (Apple Cinema HD Display/A1083/30", matte, LCD, 2560 × 1600/Unsure of Birth Date as the Serial number is not on the base of the stand) I got off eBay.
Still, I'm not ready to give up on it yet. I really don't want to go down to Best Buy and buy some random crap monitor. So far I've tried every connection possible. I have a plethora of connectors now. I'll post photos. Just ordered what Malcolm mentioned above. I do know the monitor works as it fired up great with the equipment mentioned here:
But then after a few minutes, I was getting a steady blink every six seconds or so and after ten minutes it seems to artifact. I have to unplug the Henge Dock connection from my MacBook Pro (mentioned in link above) to reset it.
I realize that blinking and artifacting may mean the Cinema Display is going bad but there seems to be a ton of daisy chaining going on with the system mentioned in the link above and I wonder if that's doing it.
I'm including a photo of all the adapters I have currently for the curious. I'm lucky that I have some of the super rare bits to go with the Cinema Display including not one but two power bricks.
Thanks for all the advice and any you might want to add. I'm curious how things will go when I get the ou need a USB-C to Mini DisplayPort adapter (UpTab) and the USB-C to USB Adapter on Monday.
Cheers,
Tracy
I'm also including a photo of the "artifacting" that happens after the monitor has been hooked up in the set-up with the henge dock for ten minutes.
I also had a bunch of problems watching Netflix, Amazon Prime and other videos through Safari because of HDCP compliance problems. I solved that by switching to Chrome.
