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.

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.
