I have this unit daisy chained to 2 thunderbolt drives from my mbp. Love the seagate unit though I have heard that constant switching of ssd units takes a toll in the ssd connectors. I should think you could daisy chain a monitor through something like a black magic mini recorder which I also love or... Get a thunderbolt hub. Jim gurney

Hey mate, I'd suggest you getting a docking station; you'd have plenty of connections including HDMI, USB, headphones and mike inputs plus Thunderbolt ports. Amazon has a very good one from Elgato. Just my 2 cents.

Only if the external monitor has 2 thunderbolt ports, this guy only has one.

No, this doesn't have a pass thru. Get the 3.5"hd model and it has a pass thru so you would still have a port for your monitor.

The dock only ultimately provides one thunderbolt connection. So with my early 2011 macpro I still had only ability to have one additional monitor but I don't have an HDMI connector. Not sure what the Air has. Ultimately I bought a new MacBook Pro with two thunderbolt displays and now have two external monitors and the laptop display. Love it and it gave me an opportunity to upgrade.

Depending on what kind of Mac you have, all you need is a VGA adapter to make this work. Amazon sells one here which should work for you as long as your computer's newer than 2009: AmazonBasics Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt) to VGA Adapter

You can connect an HDMI monitor and an Apple Thunderbolt Display to Elgato Thunderbolt Dock, if you Mac is powerful enough to support two displays of that type.Please see this exhaustive article for more details about when you can (and can't) use multiple displays with Elgato Thunderbolt Dock.http://help.elgato.com/customer/portal/articles/1491132-how-many-displays-can-be-used-with-elgato-thunderbolt%E2%84%A2-dock-Note that using a DisplayPort monitor or adapter may limit your options.Whether the displays are mirrored or split will depend on the graphics system and settings of your computer, and not Elgato Thunderbolt Dock.

Dear Julie, Thank you for your question regarding our Mini HDMI to HDMI cable. The cable is not compatible with your iMac because the iMac has a mini DisplayPort connector. We would recommend our mini DisplayPort to HDMI bundle which will work with your iMac and HDTV. Here is the link to that product: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008VYQLA0 Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions. Thanks, BlueRigger LLC service@bluerigger.com

I use one of these: ASIN: B00C7RJQPY "Cable Matters Gold Plated Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt™ Port Compatible) to DisplayPort Cable in Black 6 Feet - 4K Resolution Ready" with mine. It works great. Very happy with my monitor purchase. No regret at all.I have a MacBook Pro mid2010.

No, this is not thunderbolt compatible. Instead of trying to figure out how to connect this via Thunderbolt, consider getting a USB hub if you have run out of USB ports.

Well yes and know. It is a mini display port and USB extension cable. Many if not all of the Apple computers that have a Thunderbolt portfor the monitor output will work if you connect a mini-display port monitor. I know you can do this with a mac mini as I did it in the Apple store. You won't be able to daisy chain the thunderbolt to connect other devices. So in some circumstances I have seen people connect an external thunderboltdrive and then a mini-display port at the end of the chain and it works.

Probably. As long as you don't use Mini DisplayPort in the Thunderbolt port. At least one display has to be Thunderbolt. For displays that are not Thunderbolt, the Thunderbolt port is backwards compatible with Mini DisplayPort. The dock supports either HDMI or Mini DisplayPort, but not both at the same time.

Don't know. However, it works well with rhe Thunderbolt port on my mid-2011 iMac. Automatically sensed the connection to the HDMI port on my TV.

You just need an adapter for the imac's thunderbolt port. I won an imac 27" 2013 and this monitor. Both awesome.
899435
Yes, but one needs to be connected via hdmi and second via usb or one of them needs to be a true thunderbolt monitor. Putting an adapter on thunderbolt output will not work.
1513551
Yes, this should work. The cable can work as either DisplayPort or Thunderbolt.
1275431
Yes. Thunderbolt is backward compatible with DisplayPort. I'm using this very same cable to connect my Macbook Pro Retina to a Dell monitor without any problem whatsoever.

You should really have a USB3 hub for this EVGA adapter. I believe you can use both HDMI and DVI simultaneously. One of my co-workers tested it out and it seemed to work fine on his 2012 Macbook Pro. You may also be able to use the thunderbolt port and get a MiniDP->DVI (or hdmi) adapter for a third monitor.

I do have it hooked up that way, and I've done it in two different ways. Initially, I did have it hooked up to my laptop, and could use both this screen and the small laptop screen as dual monitors. Last year, I purchased a new Apple iMac, and am able to use the iMac's screen with this screen in a dual monitor set up. You just plug the Thunderbolt connector on the Cinema display to the Thunderbolt port on the iMac, and it works great.
