Hey amelie211,


It appears that you're having a problem with the external display attached to your Mac, and we're glad to provide assistance.


If your external display isn't detected or appears blurry when connected to your Mac - Apple Support -- See if the steps in this article helps.


If your Mac still isn't detecting the external display, what is the exact model of Mac you're using and which macOS is it currently on? You can locate this information by going to the Apple Menu () > About This Mac.


Please let us know the results when you're able.


All the best.
