How can I connect my old Apple Thunderbolt display to my iMac 5k 2017 USB-C ? Do I need the very expensive Apple adapter or there is some competition around? I looked around but couldn't find any so far, a lot of mini-display connectors but I'm not sure it will work with my Thunderbolt Display...
Hello all,
Does anybody know if:
Thunderbolt 2 to USB-A cables ever existed?
I can't find any online and that seems strange.
There a plenty of Thunderbolt 3 to USB A cables but I can't find anything for thunderbolt 2.
I want one because I've already used up my two USB A ports on my MacBook...
Hello all,
This is another topic that I have been looking into that I have some questions about. I remember that there was a SSD guide somewhere on this forum. But for the life of me, I can't seem to find it. I have some questions about SSDs in Mac pro 2009 and 2006 and I have a few items that...

Is there a way to connect a Thunderbolt 3 device (for instance a TB3 hub) to one of the Thunderbolt 2 ports of the MacPro end 2013? :rolleyes:
The Apple adapter from TB2 (female) to TB3 (male) mentions to be "reversible" AFAIK :confused:
Would it be possible to use the TB3 male side connected in...

I bought this 3TB Seagate GoFlex Desk USB 2.0 external drive (wall powered), which I didn't use at all in the last 5 years, until now. Last week I pulled it out and had to transfer about 500GB of data (4K UHD movies mostly) to this, from my 13" 2017 MBP TB. Took me 3 hours...
I'm not sure why there is such a dearth of these items, but I'm finding it extremely difficult (and frustrating) trying to reconcile hard drives with my 2018 macbook pro with my 2013 mac pro, namely reconciling the thunderbolt 2 ecosystem with the usb-c/thunderbolt 3.
Does anyone have silver...

miniDP to miniDP cable

I just upgraded my monitor to a used Dell 30" Ultrasharp that runs at 1600p. The thing looks gorgeous when connected to my PC. However, as it is rather old, it only has a dual-link DVI connector.
I want to hook this thing up to my 13" 2012 Retina MBP. Apple wants US$100 for a mini-DisplayPort...

So, I have a Macbook Pro 13", early 2015 (Model 1502 and 12,1).
The thing is that I want to upgrade from 128GB to 1TB internally. I need help with which...
I upgraded from a 5S, so almost everything about the X is a huge upgrade... except one major downgrade, and that's audio quality using the lightning adapter with my headphones. I'm currently using a pair of Audio-Technica MSR7NC headphones, but with the adapter music sounds less dynamic with a...
I was out to eat for lunch with my family the other day, and afterwards, I decided to swing by Goodwill on my way home. After browsing through the shelves of electronics, my eyes grew wide.
For only $3.99 I got myself a (from the looks of it, pretty new!) ADC to DVI Adapter! I tried it out when...
Dear forum,
I know there is a USB-C adapter super thread... but my question is a bit more specific, I hope it's justified. My apologies if its not.
I owned a HooToo Shuttle with HDMI, 3 USB3.0 and SD card slot and a SATECHI Aluminium Slim adapter with 2 USB3.0 and HDMI. They both have a USB-C...
I see a lot of confusion over how charging works on this year’s iPhones so I wanted to do a quick breakdown:
First, know that the iPhones for the past several years have been capable of pretty much two easy charging options. They included a 5W charger (this is the same charger included this...
Hi, looking for some advice. A friend of mine has asked me to take a look at his MBP which is booting up to a black screen.
I've made some observations.
1. The computer is booting up to the password screen, verified by connecting to external display.
2. The screen is not dim it is black (off)...
I'm considering picking up an older Mac mini to hook up to my 30" Dell Ultrasharp monitor. The catch is that the Dell monitor only has one input - dual-link DVI. Most of the minis I've been shopping for have either HDMI or MiniDP/Thunderbolt connectors. Apple sells a mini-DP to dual-link DVI...
Is there any Thunderbolt 3/ USB Type C to USB C hub out there? I've searched for one like crazy but can't find any.
