Does this extension cable also work with an Apple 30" (2560x1600px) HD Display?

I believe the Apple 30" HD Display uses a DVI input, this cable will only work with a Mini Display Port (MDP) connection or a Display Port (DP) with an adapter to MDP.You can google the connectors to see what they look like.

This cable is intended to use with mini display port equipped screens such as the "older" apple Cinema Display. It works perfect with it, both video and data are transferred correctly.the thunderbolt port is backwards compatible with mini display port, so If you just want the video from your display it will work, however the data (such as audio) it's transferred via thunderbolt so you won't be able to use it at its full capacity. I would advise to look for a thunderbolt extension , do you can get its full power

Well it is IF your iMac has a THUNDERBOLT port-then yes. Older Macs may not have this port as it's a newer development. I have a MacBook Pro- new. This SINGLE cable allow you to stream (audio and video) 1080p directly into your flatscreen via HDMI. Works great- if you have Thunderbolt. If not then I don't know what to tell you.

You will need a converter! It might be an Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter, but I apologize that I cannot remember exactly - I bought one, and it looked very much like this: http://www.showmecables.com/product/Mini-DisplayPort-to-DVI-Adapter.aspx?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cse&utm_campaign=2914&zmam=49733141&zmac=5&zmas=1&zmap=2914&gclid=CMWt0KeH_L4CFbRj7AodaB8AEg. Check to make sure I'm not telling you the wrong thing! I also looked into HDMI converters, but I don't think so fit. I was able to check one out from my local library, because they keep HDMI converters to connect Macs to overhead projectors, and that allowed me to try and find out that it didn't work.

It should be but you'd likely need another adapter since most macs output using mini displayport.

No. This cable is useless - you have to have an interface adapter to mate VGA to HDMI.

Yes, this should work. The cable can work as either DisplayPort or Thunderbolt.

There are no real advantages of one cable over another. It just depends on what connector you have on the MacBook Pro and the 39 inch display. I would guess those are both HDMI connectors so you need the HDMI-HDMI cable. If one or both of the connectors is display port then you'll need that appropriate cable.

No, there aren't any compatibility problems with Mac interface with BenQ monitors. I use the XL2720T with my Macbook Air via D-sub and was able to mirror the display with no problem. I also used the same connection to extend the display with no problem either.

As long as you have female VGA connections on both ends of your system, this cable will connect the two. I can't speak to the software though, I'm not an apple user.

To display 2560x1440, you need the dual link DVI cable (came with the monitor) and a dual link DVI to Thunderbolt/USB adapter. We got the Apple brand adapter and it works well.

I don't own a Mac but from what i have seen Mac has a mini display port, so this cable will not work with it.

It should. Apple uses mini display port. You may have Apple's enhanced variant of it called Thunderbolt but either way the plug is the same. See this: http://www.cnet.com/news/confusing-mini-displayport-with-thunderbolt/

Hi Kara,I too have an early 2011 Macbook Pro and an HDTV. This cable worked perfectly for me.

I have this cable and its great. I am using it on a 2012 mac mini. the max resolution i can get out of the HDMI port is 1920 x 1200 though.
