thunderbolt 2

I have a MacBook Pro 11,3 (Late 2013 15" -- it was the only one with a GPU in it at the time). It has a NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M in it. https://support.apple.com/kb/SP690?locale=en_US&viewlocale=en_US I'm trying to understand if I can run two 4k monitors in a "retina" mode (so that they're...

So one thing I'm looking for I've never been able to find is some sort of Thunderbolt 2 Splitter/hub where I can turn one Thunderbolt port into two basically. I know this may seem unnecessary because most Thunderbolt components have the ability to daisy chain, however, I am working with BMD...

Hi all, After using my Apple Cinema Display "30 for years, I'm in the market for a new USB-C monitor (looking at 4K displays). As my Macbook pro has a external Radeon GFX card It supports 4/5K displays. How do I connect a USB-C monitor with a thunderbolt 2 connection ? Thanks in advance!

Hello, First time post, unsure if I have it in the right section. I brought a OWC thunderbolt external hard drive, with 4 bays running thunderbolt 2 almost 4 years ago. Has worked like a charm. When I got it, I re-formatted the 4x 5TB hard drives that came with it, using Mac OSX at the time...

Hey, I want to connect my 2016 MacBook Pro to my 2011 iMac using target display mode. I found this cable on Amazon but after doing some digging I am starting to get the feeling it is not quite as simple (or cheap) as this to achieve my objective...

Got an older Mac that I want to hook some newer devices up to. I've only seen a couple of adapters and they only added one USB 3.0 type A port for around $75. Anybody know of some cheaper adapters/hubs? P.S. Why are these things so rare and expensive?

I have a iMac 27, 3.4 late 2013 standard model and I want to make it better by booting from an external SSD disk via TB2. Now SSD speeds of 500MB/s would be ok but if it would be possible I would like using something like RAID 0 in order to get higher speeds (or maybe you know other solutions...

Hi! Hopefully this is the right place to post this. I have been transferring data from a CF card to my iMac and the speeds have been really weird. So the first transfer was in the 60GB range and took about 30minutes. I put in another card (exact same brand and model (Sandisk Extreme Pro 128GB))...

My Mid-2014 MacBook Pro Retina's right USB port stopped working. I tried the SMC reset and the NVRAM reset. It seems the only thing left to do would be to replace the logic board which is a $300ish job. I don't want to that and I'd like to keep this laptop around for longer so I'm thinking I can...

Hello! I am looking to install Windows 10 on an external drive to avoid taking up space on my internal Flash drive on my iMac (27-inch, Late 2013). I know Windows cannot boot off USB (at least not without some major tinkering), so Thunderbolt is the way to go. Can anyone who's done just that...

Ok, so I bought a new iMac 27" 5k this week and a LaCie 2Big 6TB RAID to go along with it. So far everything's good. However, I noticed that the LaCie HD disappears whenever I shut down the computer and turn it back on. The HD goes to sleep when I turn off the computer (blue light goes off) and...

Hi, I want to connect my external hard drive with thunderbolt 2 ports to my new MacBook Pro with USB C ports. Is there a single cable solution which can do this, I don't want another adapter or dongle... please let me know, thanks!

Has anyone seen a Thunderbolt 2 to 3 cable in the wild? I've just ordered a 2016 MBP, and have a few Thunderbolt 2 devices. I've ordered a couple of adaptors, but with my USB cables I'm replacing the cable instead of using adaptors. Would like to do the same thing with Thunderbolt but doesn't...

I've got a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013) running 10.11.6 (El Capitan) and every time I need to use the thunderbolt ports on the mac I have to restart the computer Is this a new problem? Is there any way of solving this? I already tried with thunderbolt hard drives and thunderbolt to...

My 2012 MBP kicked the bucket this summer and I was waiting for the Apple announcements of late October to decide on a replacement. After much soul-searching and intense budget-shuffling, I decided on a 2015 MBP that should arrive tomorrow. (My local Best Buy has the new 2016 MBPs on display and...

i guess i cant use the thunderbolt 2 wire...i dont have a usb 3.0 male to male...i DO have a hub that i can use on the new macbook pro but i dont know if i have a wire that would fit the both macs at the same time that transfers data...? do i go thru migration assistant or is there some other...

Hi there, currently I do have the 2012 Retina 15" Macbook Pro. Next week my new 2016 Touchbar Model is coming. I was wondering how I can migrate my data (1 TB). I'm sure that Target Disk Mode would be the quickest option for me (if I can get it to work), as my Time Machine backup in on the...

I just got my new MacBook Pro with Touchbar. Maxed out, souped-up. It is replacing my 2012 Retina MacBook Pro. My old set up was to connect 2 Dell monitors (a Dell U2715H and a slightly older one) to the MacBook using 1 connection through an OWC Thunderbolt hub (display port connection) and the...

Hey! I was wondering if there's any thunderbolt 3 to thunderbolt cable out there. I'm getting my new Macbook Pro 2016 next week and I was wondering if I could use a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 or HDMI or anything else to connect it to this...

Hi, I know there are a billion thread about this so I'm just going to explain quick I have a thunderbolt display which has no use at home I've always wished to have my PC connect to a thunderbolt display but after research it's clearly not possible I stumbled upon this cable which is made by...
