Q: Can a 2009 24 inch display work with 2012 macbook pro?

I purchased a 2009 Apple 24inch display together with a 2009 17inch Macbook Pro.

 

I recently purchased a refurbished 2012 15 inch Macbook Pro, running Yosemite, which has the exactly the same connectors for  the Apple Display. The sound and power cord works, but not the display. Is there something else I need to tweak to make it work?

 

The display still works on the 2009 Macbook Pro.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

    Quick Update: The video suddenly started working – but not properly. It flashes on and off and will not show the open apps. It only shows the desktop background. If I click on the app, it opens on the macbook pro but not on the external display.
