I have a 2012 MacBook Air. The only ports are USB (not C) and old thunder bolt. How can I connect to a HDMI display?

'Old Thunderbolt' i.e. TB1 or TB2, are physically the same plug as mini-DisplayPort. So, all you need is a mini-DP-to-HDMI cable or adapter. They are commonly available on Amazon, Best Buy, etc.

Link to adapter on Amazon (you'd also need an HDMI cable if you go this route)
