Multiple external Monitors issue

Hi,


I was hoping someone could help me out.


I have a late 2013 13" Retina MacBook Pro, and I am trying to connect two external displays.


Monitors: Dell SE2719HR and a Dell P2217H


I have the 27" connected via the HDMI port and the 22" connected to the Thunderbolt mini display port via a display to HDMI adapter.


The problem that is occurring, is that both monitors are not going on at the same time, if I remove the 27" then the display port one works and vice versa.


Any suggestions on how to get both up and running together will be appreciated.


Thanks

What are the resolutions? Your Mac can support a simultaneous maximum resolution up to 2560x1600 on two external displays via Thunderbolt. Alternately, it can support a single display up to 2560x1600 via Thunderbolt and a single 1080p display at up to 60 Hz, 3840x2160 at 30 Hz, or 4096x2160 at 24 Hz via HDMI
