Connecting Apple A1316 to a Mac Mini
I’m looking to upgrade to a new Mac Mini, my A1316 seems to have a different video cable. Is there anything that will make this work?
Mac Pro, macOS 10.13
Sorry that won't work, because the new Mac mini does not support using the iMac in Target Display Mode.
carefully read > Use your iMac as a display with target display mode - Apple Support
If you buy or have a new Mac mini, then you also need an external display.
