#How to connect macbook to monitor and audio pro

I can not confirm that the Moshi adapter is the problem as it does work perfectly in all other situations including a situation where I connect my MacBook Pro to a projector through HDMI over a 50-foot cable without any issues. This makes me believe that the problem is not so much in the Samsung Monitor or the MacBook Pro as it is the Moshi adapter. Performing this song and dance each time I connect my MacBook Pro to the Samsung Monitor got old really fast so I opted to try a different workaround.Р”В¬hanging Cables РІР‚вЂњ The solution that fixed the problem was purchasing an HDMI to DVI cable from and using my MiniDisplay Port to DVI adapter. It may have been but hitting the source button twice seems to have made it work once again. I assumed that since the screen kept toggling back and forth between Analog and HDMI that it was doing this on its own. This switched sources from one to the next. The second thing I did was tap the Source button on the monitor twice. With this Samsung Monitor, it seems that you have to tap each button twice to get it to do anything unless the option is already on the screen. The first time I did this it seemed to work right away, however, the next day I came into work and plugged in I had the same problem. You can get to this menu option by tapping menu twice to get it to come up, selecting Setup&Reset, then go down to Auto Source.

It was also suggested that there were problems with many PC manufacturers as well, so itРІР‚в„ўs not a specific issue to Apple.Р”В¬hanging Settings РІР‚вЂњ Go into Menu on your monitor and switch the Auto Source to Auto, by default it comes set to Manual. A few forums even suggested that the Samsung Monitor does not work properly with AppleРІР‚в„ўs way of detecting a monitor has been attached. Determined, as usual, I kept at it and found a few different things that seem to have solved the problem. I did some searching online and all that I found is that many others were experiencing similar problems. As far as image quality goes, the Moshi adapter works perfectly.Р”Р„fter trying everything, I called Samsung, who was also unable to help. This is the only monitor that seems to have a problem with the cheaper adapter. I also have a generic brand MiniDisplay Port to HDMI adapter which is horrible and makes the screen flicker. However, once I closed my laptop, I could not get the monitor to come back on by itself. If I opened my MacBook Pro with the HDMI connected, both monitors would come on and it would operate in dual display mode. I checked that the Samsung monitor is turned on, the cables are connected, and that my MacBook Pro in hibernate mode. The problem is that when I connect the Moshi adapter to my MacBook Pro and attempt to wake my computer by tapping a key on my Apple Wireless Keyboard, nothing happens. To connect the HDMI Cable to my MacBook Pro I am using the Moshi MiniDisplay Port to HDMI Adapter, which I also bought at. They are quality cables at a cheap price. The HDMI Cables that I have been using for home audio and my computer are the MediaBridge cables that carries. I have several HDMI cables ranging in quality. I use the external monitor as my only monitor.

On my desk, I have my laptop on a Twelve South Bookarc stand and I keep it closed. To be honest, I didnРІР‚в„ўt bother trying the VGA connection to test differences in quality.

I was not about to connect my MBP through a VGA connection and loose valuable quality so I opted to connect through HDMI.

My monitor is a 27РІР‚С– Samsung S27A350H which offers an HDMI and VGA input. However, in making this change to HDMI I encountered a few problems. The extra features an Apple Cinema Display offer are nice, but I can live without them. My eye (even with glasses on) canРІР‚в„ўt tell much of a difference between an Apple Cinema Display and a Samsung.

Samsung Monitors are very high quality and a fraction of the price. I have used Samsung Monitors for a few years now since selling my 30РІР‚С– Apple Cinema Display before they were discontinued. I recently started using my Samsung Monitor through an HDMI connection rather than DVI.
