Use your old iMac as an external/dual monitor for your MacBook

If you are trying to convert your old iMac's 27 inch screen (I have a mid 2010 model) to your old MacBook to use (my macbook pro is 2015) this is the cable you need. It took me a while (and a few failed attempts with other cables) to find this one and it works great. You can toggle (using F2 on your iMac) to switch between an external (and extended/dual) monitor for your MacBook and your iMac's home screen (for use as a standalone iMac, or as a multitasking app on your iMac while you're doing…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other options

Works with ASUS G751J Laptop with HTC Vive VR Headset!

I'm using this to run the HCT Vive VR headset on my ASUS G751J laptop with mobile video NVidia 970. Apparently HDMI connects to the processor's onboard video (integrated graphics) and not directly to the NVidia - Graphics card Processor so unable to connect to HTV Vive VR headset. However, this mini display port works! I was able to use it without any problems after running the installer again and checking that everything worked. My large desktop uses a full NVidia 980, so I was surprised it…

Pros
  • Long range
Cons
  • Null

Died after 18 months

Original review below. The cable worked great when I bought it and then just died this week. I don't know why but this week I bought another one from the same company (Cable Matters) to replace it. It seemed like saving money was a good idea, but maybe not if it accidentally broke. It's not like I'm constantly plugging and unplugging cables. After they bonded, they sat like this for 18 months. I'll give them a second chance and see how the new one works. [I needed this to complete a long daisy…

Works as it should!

there. I have a Late 2009 27" iMac and a Late 2012 21.5" iMac, both of which support the target display mode from a different source. In this case from 2012 (which currently works in Mojave) to 27" (which doesn't work so stays on High Sierra). Since they are side by side I only needed a 3ft cable. nice color for the rest of my setup (wood, silver/metal and white accents) When it arrived the first thing that struck me was the really nice, professional packaging it came in. The cable itself looks

Pros
  • Computer cable adapter
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something good
