I have a 2014 MacBook Pro 15" Retina display. I bought an Apple M2454 Studio Display monitor with ADC connection and I would like to be able to use it with my laptop. Can someone tell me what converters and cables I will need to make this work? Thanks

Normally a MiniDisplayPort to DVI adapter and then the DVI to ADC adapter (can be had for less via eBay) will work.

This might also be of interest.

PS: Maybe ask a mod via the REPORT POST button (

Apple cinema display M5662 to thunderbolt

hi there!
its easy connect dvi to adc to mini display port BUT...what it the scenario is a little different...
old 22" Apple Cinema Display ( M5662 with DVI, USB and POWER Plug ( 3 Connectors in a round power plug )
Will the Apple DVI To ADC Display Adapter -Model A1006 EMC 1918
be able to power the Display or would I need a seperate Power Adapter for it?
(unless I use my old cube of course)
I could NOT find any information on this scenario at all...
thanks

Yes. If you look at images of that adapter you'll see that it has a power in socket.
