Is this monitor compatible with a Macbook Pro?

Yes I believe that it is compatible with just about any desktop or laptop, including the Macbook Pro.

Unfortunately I don't have a MacBook Pro, so that was not a concern; but I have mine plugged into a Mac Mini with excellent quality. This monitor ships with both VGA & HDMI cables; if your box can accept these, you're good to go. Power would not be an issue since the monitor has its own AC adapter plug. I think it would be an excellent compliment and good investment for a laptop. The owners manual for this screen is downloadable if you need further assurance. Apple want $1000 for this quality; so I feel I got more than a great deal.

What specifications make a monitor compatible with MacBook compared to a general PC laptop? MacBook Pro use a Thunderbolt digital video output which produce a true HDMI display. The HP monitor may not be able to support this input if you are looking for the highest quality that the MacBook can produce. The HP monitor has a high quality and blight display.

I use this monitor with my MacBook Pro. I had to buy a Thunderbolt/mini-display to HDMI adapter (or Thunderbolt to DVI, or Thunderbolt to VGA) but the expense was minimal and well worth it.

Dirk. I know nothing about the MAC...I'm a PC user and I can't find the paperwork that came with the monitor so I can look up the spec info you need, so I really don't have a clue if it is compatible with a MAC or not. Why wouldn't it be? Maybe if you check online with Samsung with this model number, that might give you your answer. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I own a MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) and it works fine between my MBP and my Yamakasi 2560 x 1440 monitor with Display Port input. I haven't personally tried it with a MacPro, but I don't see why it would not work since we're dealing with the same port standards. Perhaps you can give it a try. If it doesn't work you can return it.

Did you get your 2011 MacBookPro to work with this monitor? Have the same question ....

As long as the laptop has a thunderbolt/displayport connector, it should be fine. What ports does your macbook have available?

i believe the macbook pro has a mini displayport connector....this one is a standard size displayport connector so it will not work

There is a Display Port to Mini Display port cable so ---> mDP to macbook, DP to monitor, walla 4k goodness, make sure your macbook is late 2013 for 4k to work, it will only work @ 30hz under mac os, but will run fine @ 60hz in windows via bootcamp,

If your MacBook Pro has a mini displayport connection, than all you might need is a mini displayport to vga adapter. The cablein question won't help you.

I have not used a MacBook, but if it has a DVI port or a VGA port, it should work. Although, you may need to download different drivers.

Yes mate, as long as the Apple monitor has a DVI connector, plug the Mini display port into the Macbook, plug the DVI from the monitor and also plugin the USB from Apple monitor into macbook too

I'm afraid I can't answer your question, but it sounds like you might be able to answer mine. I connected the monitor to a DVI to DVI cable, and connected that to a DVI-Mini-display adapter to my 2011 MacBook Pro. But the monitor isn't recognizing that there's a digital connection and the computer isn't recognizing any external display (and I rebooted both and disconnected and reconnected all cables). Samsung tech support told me that if I wasn't having any luck, then it meant the machines weren't compatible but they couldn't confirm that for sure -- they essentially shrugged. It sounds like you had success with the connection (even if not calibration). Can you confirm and describe your set up? Thanks in advance.

I have not tried to use mine with a MacBook. However HDMI output is standardized. That means this device should, in theory, convert any HDMI output to VGA regardless of the source device.
2037760
Yes, it will. However, depending on the year of your MBP, you will probably need an adapter. If you have a Macbook Pro that is from 2009-2013, you will need a Mini Display Port to HDMI adapter to connect your MBP to this monitor using an HDMI cable.

Depends on what Mac you have. Macbook Pros have an HDMI port so this adapter will work with it, however Macbook Airs do not so you'd have to get a Thunderbolt-to-HDMI adapter first. At that point it might be better to find a Thunderbolt-to-VGA adapter instead.

Does your MacBook Pro have a Dual Link DVI port? If it does, then yes, it should work.

This cable will connect a MacBook Pro (with Thunderbolt connectors) to a monitor with a DP++ (DisplayPort) connector. I use it on my MacBook Pro Retina 13" to an HP Compaq LA2405wg monitor.
