Can I connect the Thunderbolt 2 ports on my late 2013 Macbook Pro with my Samsung monitor with USB-C? Just for data and video obviously not power.

Trouble connecting Mac Pro Thunderbolt 2 output to monitor's USB-C input Hi, I was told both by Apple and Dell support that I could connect my Mac Pro Late 2013 to a Dell S2722QC monitor by running a Thunderbolt 2 cable from the Mac Pro, connecting it to a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adaptor, and then connecting that adaptor to the monitor's USB-C port. This, however, does not work: when I do so the monitor says it is receiving no USB-C signal. I have done troubleshooting to rule out the cable, adaptor, Thunderbolt 2 port on the Mac Pro and UBC-C port on the monitor. Does anyone have any solutions for getting this setup to work. Note that I can connect the computer and monitor via HDMI but this does not allow me to use the monitor to its fullest capacity. Thanks in advance for your thoughts! Best, Neil

mac mini to usb-c monitor Hi I have a Samsung monitor (Samsung LC34H890WJUXEN) which has 3 ports: * HDMI * DisplayPort * USB-C I already use the HDMI and Displayports for other devices, switching between them as needed. Is it possible to connect a mac mini 2018 using the USB-C port on the monitor connected to a Thunderbolt 3 port on the mac? Would this drive video output to the monitor? The usb-c port on the monitor can also be used as a charging port (max 65W). Would this output power from the monitor damage the mac mini? If I can connect the mac mini to the monitor, can I use a standard usb-c to usb-c cable or does it need to be a Thunderbolt 3 specific cable? Thanks in advance

Mac Mini M2 Display Port 1.2 to Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) I was trying to connect my monitor, a Philips 278E8QJAB via Display Port 1.2 to the Thunderbolt 4 using a USB - C cable (https://alogic.co/usb-c-male-to-displayport-male-cable-ultra-series-4k-60hz-space-grey.html) It is not sending video signal to the monitor. When I connect the monitor via HDMI to the Mac Mini along with the USB-C cable to the same monitor I can see the led indicator on the USB - C turned green and there is video signal even I pulled off the HDMI cable. Not sure what went wrong.
