    Resolution issue with 30" Cinema HD Display

    Hey, guys, I just revived an old 30" Cinema HD Display with a new power adapter. Issue is that when connected via Mini DisplayPort to a rMBP using Apple's MDP to Dual-Link DVI adapter, the display intermittently flickers on and off. I tried the same connection on another rMBP and got no output...

    Hi everyone. So in light of Displaymate testing the iPhone 7 and saying that the brightness boosts higher in bright ambient conditions with auto brightness on, I've been meaning to try and replicate that on my phone.

    27" Thunderbolt display arm mount

    Does anyone know of a decent arm that I could mount on a desktop for my 27" Thunderbolt display? I've searched the Internet but the ones I've found can't take the weight (11Kgs+) or have bad write-ups for being far too flimsy! Also, same goes for my MBP (late 2013). Would be nice to have them...

    Thunderbolt Display overheating

    Since I installed macOS Sierra the Thunderbolt Display is overheating. It's impossible to touch the screen especially the bottom edge. Of course I don't have to touch it, just trying to explain how hot it is:) Is this normal? Using it with MacBook Pro Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014.

    EDIT: SOLUTION HERE I have a Mac Pro 5,1 (late 2009) which was sold to me with a Windows model NVidia GeForce EVGA GTX 680 4GB FTW graphics card.

    I just set up our first new Mac Pro (late 2013) with a Dell UP3216Q. I initially tried connecting with a Thunderbolt cable but the display didn't connect (black screen/power saver).

    So my Mac is on it's way out after 6 months

    Picked up a Space Grey MacBook in November - today it boots way slower than normal and I get this 'gorgeous' display error. Three reboots seems to have fixed it for now but has anyone else had this problem? Pretty disappointing to see this already..
