How to connect a 10-year-old Apple Cinema Display?
I have a beautiful, 30-inch, Apple Cinema Display that I bought with a MacPro tower way back in November 2006. The computer itself is so obsolete and limited now that it no longer makes an adequate back-up machine in my studio -- but I want to save and keep using the wonderful, matte, 2560 x 1600 display.
The problem is how to hook it up to a more modern Mac.
The display originally hooked up to the computer with the then-standard, proprietary Apple Display Connector (ADC) cables, but that standard was phased out years ago. Luckily I picked up a used Apple ADC to DVI adaptor, which gets me closer to contemporary hardware . . . and I'm wondering if I can then get a DVI to hdmi or mini hdmi or some other adaptor(s) that would allow me to connect the display to a new mac mini -- or better yet perhaps to connect via some other adptor to a USB-C port on a new MacBook Pro, which could handle the full, 2560 x 1600 resolution better than a mini.
Has anybody done something like this, and did it work?
Mac Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
