A Dell U2414H can work with a mac Pro 3.1 (10.9.5) and an ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT?
Hello
Here's my dilemma. I recently bought a Dell U2414 as a 2nd monitor to replace my old 2407FWP Dell (has died) with the understanding that the new monitor would work (via a DVI to mini displayport cable). I bought a high quality 3rd party DVI to mini display port cable. Obviously, the monitor does not. I can't get a direct Dell response if this will never work. My hunch is the graphics card can not simply to manage this monitor and it won't work with my system.
FYI: I also have an old DELL G2210 (resolution: 1680 x 1050 at 60 Hz) on the other DVI port. So I'll still need a DVI port.
Here are the current video card info:
ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT: VRAM (Total): 256 MB
Here is my Mac info (on 10.9.5):
Model name: Mac Pro (early 2008)
Model identifier: MacPro3, 1
Processor name: Intel Quad - Core Xeon
Processor speed: 2.8 GHz
16 GB OF RAM
Firstly: If someone can give an answer as to if the monitor works with this graphics card, just to settle this matter and move?
Second, assuming that no, my choice appears to be:
- return the screen and try to find another 24 "that will work with the original map (someone there suggestions for what is currently still deployed that would work with such an old graphics card?)
- upgrade the map so it can handle the new monitor but still run the old.
I chatted with OWC on this subject and they suggested 2 possible upgrade cards but they will not be returned since they could not guarantee that they will work with this monitor there is a risk.
Dell has been pretty useless (I have no one said yes, the other doesn't).
Here are some suggestions from OWC (see below). Can someone comment and tell me if or the other will definitely work or offer another solution? I would really appreciate it!
ATI Radeon HD 4870
https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/Apple/MB999ZMA/
Or more likely: ATI Radeon HD 5870
https://eShop.MacSales.com/item/Apple/MC743ZMA/
I know there are more expensive options (Saphire?), but I don't want to spend $500 for a graphics card on a 8 year old computer.
Thank you!
Best,
Joel
This is a screen with a displayPort, a DisplayPort outside and a Mini DisplayPort connector, in 1920 by 1080 max resolution.
You are WAY overthinking this. A mini DisplayPort to mini DisplayPort or a Mini DisplayPort to [size] DisplayPort should do all the work for about US$ 10, no conversion.
You don't need another card unless your is dead.

Screen Dell 5 k with 2013 Mac Pro in El Capitan
So, after years of waiting for Apple to make a screen that mocks use of the capabilities of the Mac Pro, I gave up and bought the Dell UP2715K 27 inch monitor UltraSharp Ultra-HD 5 K.
It uses two cables in parallel to transmit the signal from k 5. There's help on the Dell site and apparently it works 5 k with the Mac Pro 2013 in respect of Yosemite, but there is no mention of El Captain (why type this ridiculous name of OSX makes me so angry).
Thus, the question, someone at - it operate under El captain to 5 K with the 2013 Mac Pro garbage.
Thank you
Stephen

6700 scanner does not work with my mac 10.9.2
I bought the HP 6700, I tried to scan for the last 2 days! It works very well with my husband's computer (a PC), but it won't work with my MAC 10.9.2! When I try to activate the scanning to computer it just says "communication error".
I tried:
1 restart the printer, computer and router
2 re-install the drivers (3 times).
3. repair disk permissions
any other ideas?
Try scanning from your Mac. Use Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
Click once on the scanner on the left side, and then click Show details on the background. Along the right side you will see MANY options for scanning and recording.
