What's the model number? Connected directly via HDMI securely? Have you tried a different cable and port?

Model number is MD199LL/A and yes i tried a new HDMI cable and also used different port. I spoke to apple support and they told me that maybe the HDMI output should be in auto and it was. This happened before when i changed TVs and randomly started working one day.
