Connect a monitor 2nd or 3rd in 21 "iMac mid-2014

Hello

I work from home with sheets of Excel spreadsheets and Word documents.

1. How can I connect a monitor 2nd or 3rd in 21 "iMac mid-2014?

2. who monitors are not suitable?

Thank you.

iMac (21.5 inch, mid-2014), OS X El Capitan (10.11.4), 1.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.

(1) use connections Thunderbolt or mini-DisplayPort. If necessary a mini-DisplayPort to HDMI or mini-DisplayPort to DVI adapter can be used.

(2) according to the everymac each thunderbolt connection supports up to a 2560 x 1600 screen. Bonus points for a monitor with wide-angle IPS display technology and one case of white/silver to aesthetically match the iMac. Be aware that the iMac screen starts a few inches higher than the norm, so if you want your poster to the line up horizontally you'll be requires a monitor with a lot of height adjustment or a willingness to place the monitor on top a raiser, books or other items.

  • Can I set up a secondary monitor to the HD on my iMac mid 2011

    Can I set up a secondary monitor to the HD on my iMac mid-2011 with no problems. I cannot afford to upgrade to the new iMac 27-inch and wanted to update my monitor.

    Is this possible on the Mid 2011 iMac?

    Yes.

    Your best option is to choose a good monitor that has Display Port or DVI input and shy away from those who only have HDMI and VGA input.

    For a display Port monitor you will need a Mini Display Port to Display Port cable if it is not provided with the monitor.

    For a DVI monitor you will need to a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter and a DVI cable.

    1. do I need 2 x HDMI monitors? A DP HDMI monitor to use with different socket or adapter as well?  If you do not already have the monitors, I definitel would get both of them with HDMI connectors.  You will need a DP to HDMI connector:

    Hello

    If you are referring to the H7 polar, then Yes, we can.

    Firstly turn off pairing the monitor from other devices which he may previously have paired with (for example your iPhone), then:

    • Wear the polar H7 (which lights up by being broken to the strap and rotates when detached).
    • On Apple Watch, go to settings > Bluetooth.
    • Wait that Polar H7 appears, then press it.

  • How can I connect another monitor to compaq SG3 because there is only 1 VGA port and no HDMI.

    How can I connect another monitor to compaq SG3 series because there is only 1 VGA port at the back and there is no HDMI port.  The operating system is Windows 7. I think to buy vga splitter, I don't know if that will allow me to move images/data between the monitors. Please tell us what to do. Thank you

    It is based on the expected results.  A VGA splitter will give you two monitors but they will display the same image.  If the expected result is two different pictures, maybe something like this will do;

  • Connecting 2 monitors to a p7 - 1446 s

    I have a p7 - 1446 s running 64-bit Windows 8. I want to connect 2 monitors. I have 1 VGA port and HDMI 1 monitor. I have to add a video card and if so, what will work with this machine. How can I disable the graphical subsystem integrated?  I have a XFX more edition of cards which has now an ATI Radeon HD 5450. He recommends a source of power of 400 watts and the machine has a 300 Watt installed.  Will this work? Thank you.

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion p7 - 1446 s. According to the specification, this model has a DVI - D output (digital only) and a VGA (analog only) output as shown below.

    (3) / VGA (analog) (4) - DVI - D (digital)

    I want to connect 2 monitors. I have to add a video card and if so, what will work with this machine? NO, you don't need a graphics card to support two monitors.

    How can I disable the graphical subsystem integrated? Integrated video is automatically disabled when a discrete PCIe x 16 graphics card is installed.

    My graphics card recommends a source of power of 400 watts and the machine has a 300 Watt installed. Will this work? NO, you need at least a power of 400 w.

    Please provide the brands and model numbers full of monitors you plan on connecting to your computer. Assuming that you have a VGA monitor and a HDMI, you buy an adapter or a HDMI-DVI cable. Connect the monitor to the computer as follows;

    Computer > DVI-HDMI > HDMI monitor

    Computer > VGA cable > VGA monitor
