Macbook Pro and Apple Cinema Display

Hi Jason,

I just bought a macbook pro 13" 2022 with an m2 chip. I have an Apple cinema display 27". If you're monitor has the three cables coming out the back (power cable, USB-A, and mini Displayport), you need the USB-C to mini Displayport adapter. I bought this one and it works well.

Cheers.

PS: Our area had a power surge a few days ago (power went off and back on within a few seconds) and now my monitor shows nothing but black. Both the macbook and cinema display show up in the Displays settings, but no video is coming out. I bought a different adapter but I only get a brief flash on the screen and then the Cinema Display stays black. I'm at my wit's end as I think the monitor is dead.

Hi,

You need to get USB-C to DVI adapter like following one.

Hi,

If your Apple Cinema Display has mini display, L type charger and USB-A cables, you need to get USC-C male to mini display female adapter or cable as you say.

Hi,

If your Apple Cinema Display has mini display, L type charger and USB-A cables, you need to get USC-C male to mini display or Thunderbolt 1 or 2 female adapter or cable as you say.
