i updated to the latest Big Sur version 11.2.2 When I connect my Macbook Pro to the TV (for example t show a video), nothing works. None of the ports are working . It looks like others are having the same issue after updating, from what I can tell from my searches. Will Apple be fixing this SOON? Is there any more information other than what I see online?
thanks

Thank you. Technology changes so rapidly there's always something new to learn for all!
(Surpised no-one with a bit more experience than I have hasn't chipped in.)
Have come across a bit more info that may help you:
Having the right cables, or adapters, for both your particular Mac, and Big Sur might be necessary ?

Thank you for letting us all know this.
Commisserations.
Apple does have a feedback page:

Alternatively, there is also link to Apple Support at the top right of this page.
Hi suempnz,
Seems the Big Sur updates are coming thick and fast!
I notice when I check for updates there is now an 11.2.3 already!
Wonder if that may be the fix ?
Am still using 11.2.1, watching and wondering about the two updates since.
All the best.
If you post again, do let us know which version (year) of MacBook Pro you are using, it might help others respond.
You can check from clicking the little Apple icon at top left on the Menu bar, and viewing "About this Mac".
Cheers
Yes, that's the info. needed ... thank you:
There are online user-guides for the various models:

(My MacBook Pro was also a January purchase a few years earlier ... was nicely discounted, because it wasn't the newest)
Cheers
Thanks for your reply. Before the updates, I was able to connect this computer to the TV and play a movie no problem. The only thing that has changed is the updates. It seems strange to me that an update would require me to look into new adaptors when before the updates, they worked fine and that was also with Big Sur just a slightly earlier version than the 11.2.2 and 11.2.3 (it would have been an 11 but just don't know which now). Also, from what I can tell, others online have said they have had the same issue. However, I will take a look at your suggestion.
Thanks again
I really appreciate your thoughts and suggestions. And I did go to the link to the feedback page, thank you, and will wait to see if anything comes of it!
At this point, all comments are so welcome - so thank you again
Thank you for your response. I did update to 11.2.3 and still no luck. Anyone have any suggestions? Does Apple know about this or is there another place I go to let them know?
Ha! Thank you. You can tell I am new at this.
You're welcome :-)
(Just sorry I don't know enough to give you more specific details.)
MacBook Pro 16-inch 2019. Processor is 2.6 GHz, 6-Core Intel Core i7. Does that help or is more needed?
And I just got this in January - this year! So not an old one, but not the 2020 version. That wasn't an option when I ordered
Big Sur update. 11.2.2
