How can I get 2 monitors to work with my new M1 Mac Mini?
I have read that I can run dual monitors on this new Mac Mini, but I cannot get it to work. I have an old Apple LED Cinema Display hooked up to one of the Thunderbolt ports (through a mDP adapter). The other monitor I am trying to get hooked up is an even older PC VGA. I have tried both an HDMI to VGA cable as well as an adapter.
The most luck happens with the HDMI to VGA cable. With that, the OS seems to recognize the monitor (it shows it is the Displays area in Settings). But, no picture shows on the monitor, just a black screen. And then, after a bit, the VGA monitor says no signal.
Any idea if I can get this to work? Is it the old monitor that is the problem? Or something else?
Thanks,
Colin
