Am looking for a riser that would bring my Cinema Display up to roughly the same height as an Imac I`m seriously considering buying. Does anyone make this kind of accessory?

A lot people expect have cam with the new cinema displays but what about mic? I use my sister imac yesterday and the mic are amazing. I call with skype sitting on the chair and receive the voice great and of course the cam.
You think that mic appear with cam on the new cinema display (that appear not see the light)
why not new cinema displays!! I want a new one, a lot time without a new model!
View 24 Replies View RelatedSo I have (3) 24" LED Cinema Display's being driven by 3 seperate GT 120's in my 2009 MP, can I also drive a 46" LCD from the one of the DVI outputs of the video card?
I was hoping to mainly stream CNN or similar news outlet to the LCD to avoid paying the cable company the hefty premium they charge for basic cable in office buildings....
I'd like to purchase one of Apple's new LED Cinema Displays but I don't own one of the new MacBook Pros.
At the moment I've got the original MacBook Pro and a G5. I was hoping to hook the new display up to my G5.
Is this completely impossible or is there a converter that will enable either of these Macs to connect up to the display?
Do the old Apple Cinema Displays work with the new Mac Pros?
I am sure its a dumb question, but i have an older mac cinema display with the pins not mini dvi, that will work on the new mac pros right?
Sorry for the dumb question, I just know apple loves to keep changing those plugs.
I need a glossy screen display to go with my 21.5" iMac. All the 21.5" IPS displays I have found (Dell, HP, LG) have a matte screen. Didn't Apple make both a 24" and 30" display at the same time? What gives?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been a mac guy since 1990 and for the last five years have settled into a nice PowerMac G5 with the dual 2.0 processors with the 20" Apple Cinema Display.
I did search on this but couldn't find anything specific, but I am considering adding a second 23" Apple Cinema Display to my set-up for a dual monitor workstation.
I have the ATI Radeon 9600 video card with two DVI ports. I have my 20" plugged in to port 1 and it's running at 1680x1050 resolution (the highest). When I add the second monitor, will BOTH monitors be able to run at their highest resolutions? Or do I need to add another video card?
I had heard rumor that resolutions are a trade-off: if your card is split between two monitors, then the resolution splits, true?
If I can run both at the highest res, then I'll pull the trigger and get the extra monitor. I'm assuming there's someone here who has done the exact same thing?
I have the new MacBook Pro and am interested in hooking up two of the new 24" LED Cinema Displays. Is this possible? I assume it would take some sort of splitter? Is there such an animal yet?
I currently have a 23" Cinema Display but, I think two 24's would look best side by side. ...or two 23"s side by side.
I've had little luck with getting uniform backlighting on the LED Cinema Displays, and after my second exchange, Apple wants to start taking a look at my display before I exchange again. Unfortunately I live a long way away from any Apple Stores, so driving up to one isn't really an option.
But in any case, getting a good display seems to be somewhat of a lottery - I've been wondering if perhaps a repair is a better option. I'm going to be moving to a city with an Apple store later this year - since that will fall within my 1 year warranty, do you think they'd repair my display later in the year? And can the ACDs even be repaired, or is it more of a replacement?
I have a 15-inch MacBook Pro, and was thinking about getting a Apple Display to connect it to for watching DVDs and etc. on.
However, would it be possible to use it as a tv?
Googling this resulted in loads of stuff about DVI ports and the like I didn't really understand so just wondering if somebody would please explain whether this was possible or not?
Did they ever make them without Mini Display Port?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 2008, 3.2Ghz Quad-Core Mac Pro, that's currently running two 30" Cinema displays off of a nVidia GeForce 8800 GT video card. I need to add a third 30" display. Would someone recommend the second video card I'd need to buy?
(The bus on this vintage of Mac Pro is limited to 300w of output, and only the first two slots are PCI x16, 2.0) The 8800 GT is also uses one of the two power outputs on the "Logic Board" via a cable.
In terms of Display Preferences, I need to run one as an extension--two side-by-side--and mirror the other one, which will sit across the studio, connected by a 15' Gefen Dual-Link DVI cable. Currently, I have everything set up and working beautifully, with the exception of the third display working as an extension to one of the mirrored displays.
I have a Samsung 204B 4:3 21" screen and a 20" Cinema Display from 2004. I want to use the samsung because I prefer 4:3 ratios, but OS X looks seriously on it. I know its something with OS X, because Windows appears nice and crisp.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a solution to have multiple (2-3) 24" Cinema Displays w/mini display port connected to a unibody 15" Macbook Pro?
It seems the BIG achilles heal is that "mini display port" from the display and connecting to an after market box like the Mattrox DualHead2go. This has become VERY frustrating and I may have to buy a couple of non-Apple displays as the solution! I really like my 24" displays but, NEED more real estate ESPECIALLY when running Parallels.
Is anyone using dual Apple 24" LED Cinema Displays on a Mac Pro?
If so, how is the cable length?
Where is your Mac Pro located in reference to the displays?
Where can I find cool screen savers? Anyone have any good sites?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI wonder if anyone has a setup with two 24 inch cinema displays that have speakers integrated into them...
How do the speakers work? Do you run a USB cable to each monitor so you have both sets of speakers working at the same time? Can you configure the monitor on the left to just play audio for the left channel and the monitor on the right to play just audio for the right channel?
When I'm putting a heavy load on it (Compressor, Handbrake, etc), the fans crank up to 5000-6000rpms, and the temperature hovers around 97-98C (207-210F). I've never seen it go above 210...so...it's just shy of being able to boil water for me for a nice cup of tea.
Even when it's idle - just doing email/web/etc, it run's at 120-150F (49-66C), which is the temperature most people on the threads I've found say is the max for their portable.
Do you think this thing is built to handle those temperatures day in and day out? Is there any 3rd party hardware to make it run significantly cooler (I have smc fan control - but lately, since the last software update from Apple, it won't change the temperature anymore, so I can't keep the fans pegged at 6000 which does bring the temperature down under 200F.
I've been offered an original (I presume) Apple HD Cinema Display 23". How does this compare with a modern display? I am looking to add an external screen to my Macbook for image editing. How would one compare to a new TN 20 or 22" display (if calibrated, etc).
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there anyway to get the power button on the Cinema Displays (aluminum ones) to sleep a MacBook Pro? I have it set up in System Preferences to sleep the computer, but when you tap the button the Sleep, Shutdown, or Restart dialogue pops up (same one you get if you press the power button on the laptop).
View 7 Replies View RelatedThis seems an odd problem so I may be missing something -- but the connectors on my two Apple Cinema Displays will not plug into the card side by side. The plastic casing is just a tad too bulky, so you can't quite get the second connector in if the first plug is filled. It's the card that originally came with the computer, a Mac Pro 1,1.

I was thinking about picking up a 27" but it seems kind of silly if I can get a 24" for almost half the price refurbished XD
The extra space would be nice but I don't think it's several hundred dollars nicer, nor really worth it to wait several months.
I have been using the album art player thing in the new ITunes and now the album art unknown is really starting to get to me. I have a lot of old music I have been collecting over the years and a lot of the data was either not there or for whatever reason is not there. I am looking for a program to do either an audio scan or something to find all my album art work and information that itunes displays. I have used the ITunes find album artwork but some songs done have the album listed. What do I do from here. I am not going through 4k songs to get them all manually.
View 9 Replies View Relatedven an everyday user may consider such a card if the price is within budget which currently isn't. It isn't targeted at gamers who need every ounce of performance though.
It appears to be geared towards Apple since it debuted with onboard DisplayPorts. However, it should be noted on their specs page that the system requirements currently do not list any version of Mac OSes. Matrox do list Linux support though. Do note that they didn't leave out regular DVI users. Direct Link for more details on the specs.
Is it the one on the bottom or the top one?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a macbook and I want to get a cinema display but I heard that the cinema displays from apple do not work with any other computer.
Does anyone know where I can get an adapter to have the display work with non-macbooks?
Also I posted this question on Apple Forums and they removed it with no answer because it can lead to rumours about new product releases so I am seeing if anyone here has an answer.
