    M1 MacBook - turn on when connected to power (lid closed)?

    It seems there is a behavior difference between Intel and M1 MacBooks regarding powering on when connected to power? I have a 13" 2019 MacBook Pro (4 TB ports). When the MacBook Pro is off, and I connect it to my USB-C monitor (soon to be Apple Cinema Display), with the lid closed, the MacBook...

The display will sit on a small desk (100cm X...

    Mac Mini and Studio Display

    I've seen in a couple of places that the M1 Mac Mini has issues when connected to Studio display, with performance levels dropping noticeably. I'm weighing up between a 16GB Mini and a Studio Max base model. There's a gulf in price terms, but I have an 8GB Mini with a 4K screen and I'm yet to...

    How can I get my Mac to properly identify my monitor?

    I had a Dell U2415 attached to my Mac Pro via 4K HDMI KVM, and I replaced it with an ASUS PA278QV monitor with 2560 x 1440 resolution. However, I only get the resolutions of the Dell U2415, for the Mac misidentifies this new monitor as the old Dell. How can I fix this?

    iMac 2015 27" Backlight Bleed

    Hello, I have a late 2015 27" iMac which has sadly been plagued with the backlight bleed issue. It is pretty severe with the ghosting and discoloration. I was curious, though, if I was to replace the LCD with another one off of eBay, it would have the same issue sooner or later, correct? Because...

    Will running 2 Dell UltraSharp 27 4K U2723QE on my 2020 MB Air (Intel) slow it or run hot?

    According to Apple I can plug 2 4K displays into my Macbook Air 2020 (Intel). What's the best way to set up 2 Dell u2723qe monitors?

    Studio Display with Mac Pro 2013?

    I see on the tech specs the Mac Pro 2013 trash can isn't listed as being compatible with the new Studio Display. Anyone know if I used a thunderbolt 2 to 3 adapter if it would work? I guess we'll have to wait and see maybe

    New Studio Display

    Oh my, I’m so ready for this!!!!!!!!! Bring it on already! It's everything that's on my mind recently whenever I think of Apple. Now, the LED Cinema Display / Thunderbolt Display was great. I’d say the single only issue I’ve had with them is the cable not being detachable. Otherwise it’s a...

    Desperate for a fix

    Curious - for those intel 16'MBP owners that were having external display issues in the release version of Monterey, are you still having them? If not did 12.1 or 12.2 fix them, or did you find an alternative solution? It's driving me mad that I still cannot use my external Dell displays when...
