Fortunately in the UK consumer protection legislation allows a product purchased online to be returned within 14 days without argument. It's extremely disappointing that Apple seems to have no interest in helping with this problem, there must be people within the company who know if there is an answer, and if so what it is. There are very few 4K displays of similar size, and even if I did buy one there would be no guarantee that it would work with the M1 MacMini. Using these displays is perfectly rational, they are fine, for example working with Keynote, and having two PDFs open on the second screen. There must be thousands of people using 23 inch Cinema displays, on eBay they sell for the same price as a brand-new 23 inch HD display, that's how good they are. I was advised to purchase an Apple Thunderbolt 2 to 3 connector, and that dosn't work. After two chat sessions and an hour to support there is no progress. The displays simply don't work, the HDMI connection shows a correct image for around 3 to 4 seconds, and it then looks like a silver coloured snowstorm. I chose to replace a 2012 MacMini, running two 23 inch cinema displays, model number A1082, with DVI-D connectors and adaptors, with an M1 MacMini, mainly in the hope of speeding things up. Big kudos to the team at Apple that solved this (4 months after product release)! Very happy that it finally came through and Apple solved the issues to let the mini M1 do what is advertised. A 23’ Apple Cinema Display with a Club 3D HDMI- DVI passive adapter (i assume same pinout as original Apple HDMI-DVI adapter).A 30’ Apple Cinema Display with a Club 3D USB-C to dual link DVI adapter(HDCP Off) (ref no: CAC-1510A) (Had to Option+click resolution setting to select full resolution only once and it remembers).As it should be.įor completeness: i have an apple mac mini M1 running I updated to 11.2 and indeed the issues i had with the HDMI-DVI single layer adapter to connect my 23’ Apple Cinema Display were GONE after the update to 11.2.įinally: no more pink vertocal stripe to the left of my screen, no more nasty ghosting (even persisting after reboot), no more ‘micromesh-looking’ pattern on the screen all the time and the pink squares seem to have vanished.Įverything looks crisp and colors are correct, no flicker whatsoever. I must say - after your post i checked whether the 11.2 update had been rolled out for me(finally) and it was. So now you know which version ya'll have :) The old model has a more yellowish tint and the newer has a more blueish tint (with much better picture quality). The model number is the same but the contrast & brightness are better on the latest model. Mango is now flickering, on both outputs (usb-c and HDMI output).Īpple made 2 versions of these Apple Cinema Displays. Kiwi works great with both adapters (usb-c and HDMI output) only showed picture for 1 sec, then turned to flickering snow.īut Kiwi did however work with the Benefei USB-C adapter, with beautiful colours. Kiwi didn't work with the " HDMI-DVI" adapter at all. like burned in pixel.īut with the " USB-C to DVI" adapter, it worked perfect, with beautiful colours. Mango had bad colours when connected via HDMI-DVI adapter. Before the update, on 11.1, only one of my displays worked with the HDMI output.
