External Display Screen Turns Black Randomly I own a 2016 MacBook Pro 15" running Catalina and recently purchased an external display, the LG 32UL750-W and the issue that I am having is that the external display goes black every few minutes. First, I exchanged the USB-C cable that came with the monitor for an Apple Thunderbolt 3 cable, that did not help. Also turned off Night Shift, still same issue. Also, volume and brightness control do not work on the external display. This is not a random issue since my bother has the same setup and is experiencing the same issues. What can we do to solve this?

External Monitor blacks out I have a Macbook Pro with a BenQ monitor screen that blacks out for about 2 seconds every few minutes. (the Macbook screen doesn't black out.) I had a USB-C to display port cable connecting the two of them - it's has been that way for years with no problem until about a week ago. I have changed the cable to a different port (USB-C) on the computer, bought a new cable (USB-C to display port), and connected to the monitor using a HDMI cable instead. None of these cured the problem. Any suggestions as to what to do next? Do I need to replace the monitor?

Catalina and external display on MacBook Pro After installing the latest Catalina update 10.15.1 my MacBook Pro comes up with a black screen on both the internal and external display when I have an external display connected. If I disconnect the external cable before startup the internal monitor works normally and then I can connect the external cable and everything works. Any ideas???
