    Broke in less than a month

    This so called amazing wire was useful for about two minutes. I bought it and it came with no instructions. Because my screen is bRead moreroken i could not get on to the internet to find out how to use it. The casing around the wires broke as soon as I put it in and after about 5 hours of messing around i finally managed to get it to work on a different TV. I had not got it on the setting of mirroring so i had to do alot of guess work to get up the screen i needed so that i could see my homepage. After all of that it was fine for about two weeks then the wires started to get twisted and im now stuck with a yellow screen and it will not change other than to go red or green or blue or not work at all. So thanks Apple Mac, Thanks. Maybe make it so that its either a usb end or a longer cable and a longer input. I need my mac for alot of things but atm im tempted to just not bother as i can only just afford another lead and the prices people ask to get the screen repaired is ridiculous.

    This is an adaptor. It works with the white macBook. The Mini DVI end goes into the macBook. The other end is VGA (female). You wiRead morell need a VGA lead (male) which will connect to your TV/Monitor. I use it with a Sony Bravia which has a PC input (VGA). Works very well. No setup. Works immediately. If macbook is closed and re opened the picture does not return to TV in full size. disconnect lead and switch off TV and start again. Adjust viewing options on Mac and on TV for best sizing.

    Ensure you know what you're buying!

    Beware of what you're buying, people. This cable is specifically for the computers that are listed in the review, and is intended Read moreto take you from Apple's proprietry mini-DVI connector (such as the one featured on the 12" Powerbook G4) to normal VGA.
    This is not, as mentioned by a previous reviewer, simply a VGA extension cord. You plug this into your computer, then the long cable that comes out of your monitor plugs into this.
    Apple need to make extra cable-buying easier in the Apple Store, especially as each of their computers need different cables...

    Excellent... (just make sure you order the right cable)

    First I ordered 'VGA Display Adapter' by mistake...
    Make sure the cable you order is the Correct one for your machine/peripheral.Read more
    A lot of these cables look the same in the small picture and sound the same in the description. Check your requirements thoroughly before purchase. (ie - connections for both ends)
    I needed to connect a VGA TFT to my iMac, and placed my order for 'VGA Display Adapter'. Which shows on order form as 'APPLE VGA DISPLAY ADAPTER-GEN'. I later found that I needed compatibility for an 'iMac (Intel Core Duo)', returned 'VGA Display Adapter' and ordered 'Apple Mini DVI to VGA Adapter'. Which shows on order form as 'VID ADPT MINI-DVI TO VGA ADAPTER-GEN'.

    My new cable works like MAGIC, as I'm sure 'VGA Display Adapter' will for those who need it.
    Customer - Check every detail
    Apple - Make the difference MORE OBVIOUS

    Fantastic with LCD HD Ready TV

    I bought this little fellow a few months ago now, from an apple dealer, and although having to buy the vga cable itself, which somRead moree places can be nasty prices, this has been glorious. Its plugged into my Sony HD tv, a specific PC input, and when playing HD content on my mac, trailers, etc, it looks superb. Its just a shame i cant play multi region discs on my mac, VLC doesnt seem to work too well with Leopard, as im sure it might help make the DVDs look a little better than my old, S Video output, Dvd player. Anyway, a great adapter. Macx
