Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter
Adapter works fine as long as you force a good connection.
Written by SC from LOS ALAMOS
Nov 23, 2009
I'm very happy I read the negative reviews which alerted me to possible problems. Connecting the female DVI-D to a male DVI-D to HDMI cable was a bit of a nuisance since the fit was EXTREMELY tight. I very carefully forced the two connectors together. The amount of force required to get a good connection (the connector bodies touching) is very much more than would be ordinarily expected. But once the connection was made, the secondary display appeared on my Sharp Aquos 52" TV. A 2m Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable would probably sell well.

The adaptor works great. It's nice they shrank the huge DVI input down to this small little plug.

Macbook dvi adapter
Written by JM from Salinas

This adapter worked perfectly with my 20" Dell monitor. The mini displayport plug is long enough that it does not detach randomly from my MacBook Pro. As for the DVI side, Other reviews mentioned that they had trouble screwing in their cable into the adapter, I didnt. Probably depends on your cable.

Works just fine. Setup was a breeze. Plug and play no drivers necessary.

I bought the 2.13Ghz MBA and connected a 20" LG flat panel monitor. It works quite well and almost always without hesitation. If you mirror the displays and try to do something like watch movie via itunes, it will flicker occassionally. If you have it in extended desktop mode, it works just fine. It's a slight compromise for having the itty bitty MBA.

Great Product

This works great even though I needed to go and buy a new one because my older black macbook used the larger size Mini display port. Oh well, it was worth it.

Connected to my 24" Gateway and it works flawlessly. I find the cable long enough and it mates perfectly with my DVI cable.

My MacBook Pro is connected through this adapter to a ViewSonic DVI port and my PC is connected to the ViewSonic VGA port, making it easy to switch the ViewSonic to show either machine. Worked out of the box, no problems.

Solid Apple product
Written by JC from Fremont

This might cost a bit, but it's top notch quality. The first one I got was defective, so I took off one star. But the level of professional customer support I got (I got yelled at when i went to Fry's) from Apple made me add one star. They tested the defective one, took out a 20" ACD and tried it. Then they gave me a new one, and opened it + tested it before I bought it. Fry's, Best Buys would have shoved me out the door. I know the later has done that before.

Works great with Samsung LCD

I bought this cable and a DVI to HDMI cable to hook up my macbook pro to a 40" samsung LCD. You will also need a Y audio cable to get the sound. After hook up, close the top enough to make the laptop sleep. Then use an ipod remote to navigate the menu. The product works great.

It works perfectly on my iMac with connected Dell 2007WFP via DVI-D.
I wish only if there was a way to duplicate the menu bar so to be able to have two on the two monitors :)), but that is not in relation to the adapter, so I set 5 stars!6 of 7 people found this useful

This Works With My 13.3" Aluminum Macbook
Written by SM from Cicero

This Mini Display Port works just as it should. I connected my DVI-D Single Link Cable that I brought from Amazon to this Display Port. WARNING it does not provide any sound. You will need an audio cable that connects from your head phone jack to your TV. WARNING you need a DVI-D Single Link Cable Not a DVI-I. Big Difference!

I got this adaptor for my Samsung Sync Master HDTV monitor. Initially they suggested a wrong adaptor, but they exchanged it with the right one. I am new with Apple and still finding my ways with my Macbook. But with this adaptor, it was so simple: just connect it, and that was it! Tech support people are great too.

This is a great buy, and the Belkin DVI to HDMI cord at $19.99 is UNBEATABLE!! Looks great on my HDTV, love high-res images and videos at 40". One thing, probably user error is no audio through the TV... ??

If you're gonna be condescending, being correct should come first
Written by DP from Los Angeles
Mar 3, 2009
"It appears that some people are being mislead into leaving bad reviews, but in the end, User Error is to blame. To clarify, this is a SINGLE Link DVI adapter, intended to be used in conjunction with a SINGLE external monitor. Apple also sells a "Mini DisplayPort to DUAL-LINK DVI" adapter if you need to run, you guessed it, dual monitors! "
DUAL -LINK refers to running a SINGLE display with greater than 1920x1200 resolution (like a 30" @ 2560x1600) It has nothing to do with the NUMBER of monitors you are running, just the resolution of a single one.
