Hi Lynniebabes,


Welcome to the Support Communities!


You would need to find out what the input is for the projector you are using.

Then, you will know what type of adapter you need.

For example:



MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2012) - Technical Specifications


Thunderbolt digital video output

  • Native Mini DisplayPort output
  • DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter (sold separately)
  • VGA output using Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter (sold separately)
  • Dual-link DVI output using Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter (sold separately)
  • HDMI audio and video output using third-party Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter (sold separately)


I hope this information helps ....

Have a great day!
