I recently got a 2019 27" iMac and it doesn't seem to be connecting to other displays even though the adapters have worked with other configurations. Did something drastically change between earlier models and this one? Here is some background:
• I have a Dell 3007WFPt monitor that worked great with my previous imac. It only accept dual link DVI, and worked great with Apples MiniDisplay port to dual-Link DVI adapter at full resolution 2560x1600
• I got this USB-C to HighRes Mini display adapter that supposedly accepts such a thing and reviews mention it working: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017TZTMBG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It does not work at all with the 2019 iMac, even when connecting the dual link adapter, a regular mini display adapter to regular DVI, a Mini display port to HDMI connected to a different HDMI monitor.
The adapter from Amazon however will work on a 2018 Mac Mini using MiniDisplayPort>HDMI and as far as MiniDisplayPort>HDMI>DVI
Originally I thought the adapter just wasn't working and even got a replacement, but they work with earlier macs, just not this one. Any idea what I can do to get this brand new 2019 27" iMac to connect to a dual link DVI display, or perhaps any other display altogether? What exactly should I be looking for?
Been trying to figure this out for days and I'm at a loss.
