would this be the cable to connect my Mac Air to a HDM1 cable?

BEST ANSWER: I would need to know what year mac air to determine if this works.. If the Mac Air requires the use of a thunderbolt I/O port instead of a mini display port, then this item will not work for the above customer. If however the reverse is true, in that the customers mac air has a mini display port, this item will work, Sorry for the late reply and hope this helps.

Will this work from a Microsoft Surface 3 Docking Station to my Samsung Smart TV HDMI in?
New User U
on Mar 10, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Although I am a Mac user, there could be similar problems with some of Microsoft’s older devices such as the Surface3’s MiniDisplay Port — as there was with my older 17” 2009 MBPro. You need to confirm the device’s Display Port features. My MBPro’s Display Port didn’t support sound. Solution was this adapter. Also, Im guessing that you could channel the sound through the USB port with this adapter, while using the Display Port for the video, as this configuration works splendidly on my MBPro.
One thought though… I can’t recall if this adapter’s USB is a 2 or 3 — or it is universal. And I think that your Surface3 has a USB3, so… be sure to know what your device’s technical features are; and then compare what this adapter can accommodate for your needs. I hope that this has helped.

No. Looking at the Dock for the Surface 3, the inside of the mini display port is angled, which means you still need to purchase the Microsoft Brand adapter to push the connector in far enough to connect properly.
In any case, this is the wrong adapter anyway, and is specifically for older MacBook Pro Laptops.

Can you connect an older monitor that has VGA & DVI to a laptop that only has a HDMI port?
Belen C
on Apr 18, 2018
BEST ANSWER: HDMI laptop to VGA or DVI monitor? Not with this Mini-DP-to-HDMI converter. But in general, yes, there are many simple cables and adapters that can run from an HDMI laptop to a DVI monitor. I assume the Monoprice 2404 "HDMI to DVI Adapter Cable" (for under $5) would work. Or if you already have a "regular" DVI or HDMI cable, then just use one of the various HDMI to DVI adapters (several for around $2) here on Monoprice (Search "HDMI to DVI"). Just pay attention to the gender needs.

You may have to be creative with additional adapters but I think it is worth a try. Good skill.

The adapter works exactly as advertised. However, it either works or it doesnt. There does not seem to be any levels of functionality in between and I am unable to find any settings to adjust. That last point could be good or bad, depending on the person, but I find the lack of control unsettling.

Failed Within A Year
I would only consider purchasing this if you have no other option.
The one I bought never worked properly and was returned within a month. The replacement began malfunctioning within six months and failed within another six.
I replaced it with a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter cable and the Toslink to Mini Toslink S/PDIF digital optical audio cable, which came out to a third of the price of this product.

MacBook Pro mid 2009 HDMI to Mdp/USB adaptor
Only place I could find an adaptor for my older MacBook Pro (mid 2009). Took a few minutes for me to figure out the video setting on my laptop to view on the screen. I needed to set the video output to 1090i and it worked great. Now I can watch videos on my TV from my laptop. Yay!

Does exactly what it says it can do, phenomenal price too.
I wanted to connect my late 2008 aluminum MacBook to a TV set for streaming videos. The MacBook only has a DisplayPort out. I bought this device and it works a treat! There is a little bit of tweaking with command+f2 and going into system preferences and setting audio to usb. But otherwise it just works.
Im not a big fan of how the new MacBooks are slimming down. Only usb-c ports now? Really? So Ive maxed out this 2008 MacBook by cramming 8gb of ram and a Samsung 850 Evo SSD and upped it to El Capitan and it runs like a dream! A whole decade old and shes still kicking!
Thanks to Monoprice for making this awesome adapter!

Mini Displayport adapter for early Macs without audio on HDMI.
This adapter worked perfectly on the late 2009 Mac Mini 3.1. It gets pretty warm to the touch but seems to be holding up ok. I would recommend this adapter if you want to connect your earlier Mac without audio on display port to a TV.
