2017 Macbook - Not able to connect to 4k monitor via USB C port I'm trying to connect my 2017 MacBook to a Samsung M8 Monitor however the monitor is not able to detect the MacBook via the USB C port input. Since I'm not sure if the issue is with the monitor or the MacBook, I did the following steps to make sure the monitor was functional. The USB C port on the M8 Monitor is able to detect and charge my dell latitude laptop and Samsung galaxy tab s7+ without any issues. I tried using a different USB C cable but still can't connect to the MacBook. The other peripherals connect fine with the different USB C cable. The MacBook is able to connect to the monitor via HDMI input. I used a USB C hub for the MacBook and connected the HDMI to the USB C hub. Ideally, I would prefer using the USB C cable for a cleaner setup. I noticed a weird behavior when I power down the MacBook completely, connect the monitor's USB C cable and turn on the MacBook, the MacBook will charge but still not display on the monitor. However when I disconnect and reconnect the USB C cable while the MacBook is turned on, the MacBook does not charge or connect to the monitor. I tired to reset the MacBook PRAM and SMC but it didn't help. The MacBook is currently running the latest Ventura OS.

Using Samsung S27A80 external monitor(s) with 2019 MacBook Pro I have two Samsung S27A80*U monitors. I have attached them to my 2019 16" MacBook Pro using USB-C 3.1 cables. When I have two monitors attached, the MacBook frequently freezes, flashes vertical lines on the main monitor, then crashes back to the login screen. If I detach one monitor, then it stops crashing, but frequently freezes. It becomes pretty much unusable. Once I have all external monitors detached, the computer behaves normally. Has anyone else had experience with this issue? Is there something I'm doing wrong? Should I upgrade the cables (these are the USB-C cables that came with the monitors)? Am I SOL with these particular monitors? They're listed as Mac compatible. Thanks.

That appears to be a 1920 by 1080 display with two HDMI inputs.

What cables and adapters and docks are you using to make the connection? name every device and cable.
