I had the same issue on a MacBook pro M3 16" running macos 14.4.


The solution was to download the latest version of Display link (1.10.1 at the time of writing) and update the firmware on the D6000 go the latest version (requires Windows)


If this doesn't work you might need to uninstall the old version of Display Link before Installing the latest version.


It's now working on the built in display and 2 x Dell 27" monitors.

Hi all same issue, on m M1 MacBook Pro Max I had a Dell D6000 docking station with it outputting to 3 external monitors across the 2 DP and 1 HDMI off the dock. With the new M3 it only displays external monitors connectd to DP and not the HDMI. If I plug my M1 back in it works perfect on all 3 monitors. Same version of Display Link installed on both the M1 and M3.


Whats up with the M3?

Does 3 externals works on M3 standard or Pro? I am wondering buying a new MBP to use with my D6000 connected to 3 external 1080i displays (working fine in single USB-C on my current MBP M1).


Apple site says:

M3 standard: 1 external display; Pro: 2 external displays; and Max 4 external displays.

Buy 14-inch MacBook Pro - Apple


But also says only one external for my current M1 but it pushes 3 externals just fine with D6000 + DisplayLinkManager.


Should I take the risk?
