Is it possible to connect 3 screens of thunderbolt from Apple to a MacBook Pro?

We seek to connect three apple thunderbolt Display to a whole new maxed out 15 "MacBook Pro.  We can string two monitors via thunderbolt, but that's all.  I looked into as a Matrox TripleHead2Go video expansion cards, but it won't hold out minidisplayport or apple screens native resolution.

So, anyone done this or is it just a pipe dream?

  • I changed my apple on my macbook pro, now I can't connect my mini mac ID. Any ideas anyone?

    Hi people,

    seems that I myself lost in the ICloud/Apple ID implemented the system here. I changed my Apple on my Macbook Pro (mid-2014 running El Capitan 10.11.5) ID and now can't log in to my Mac mini. The new password set up on the Macbook Pro is not recognized on the Mini and I can't seem to login screen to study. Anyone have any ideas?

    Have you tried the old password on the Mini?

    I've never used an iCloud password to connect to my Mac as he seemed always destined to fail. It seems also Apple removed this possibility, but this does not affect those who made possible it. If you manage to get back in and somehow change the password, you cannot use the password to iCloud.

    I don't know if this will help, but you can reset the password to a different admin login, if you have a.

    Otherwise, start in Recovery.

    From the Utilities menu, choose Terminal.

    Type the following command and press return

    ResetPassword

    A utility opens when you select the hard disk and a user account, and then reset the password.

    Quit the utility, and then restart when finished.

    This will not change your Keychain password. You should try the old password or reset the keychain, thus losing all of your passwords.

    I don't know how an iCloud password affects the connection ring, however.

  • Is it possible to upgrade the trackpad in my mid-2012 13-inch MacBook Pro to the touchpad by force?

    I would add the 3D button or touchpad of my mid-2012 13-inch Macbook Pro. I know that you can upgrade from things such as the hard drive and ram. But I can do the same thing with the trackpad?

    No, but the new version of the external trackpad is designed for ElCapitan, it can be used.  New version of the external wireless keyboard works also with ElCapitan.

    Just, don't wait these external devices to work at lowest ElCapitan.

  • Is it Possible to connect HP Photosmart C4780 to FiOS without CD?

    When I arrived at the origin of my printer, I have Verizon DSL and haven't had no problem setting, the printer via the software CD. Since I spent to Verizon FiOS, but my sister lost the CD. How can I connect my printer to FiOS without the CD and then connect it to my laptop? I have a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.1) Mavericks running - any help would be greatly appreciated. I wish I could print wireless again!

    Hi AJoyner,

    You do not have a rare problem.  You must use the software on the CD for the printer connected to the network.  You may not use the software on the CD with OS X 10.9.1.  Once the printer is connected to the network, you can use this document to install the printer driver.

    http://support.HP.com/US-en/document/c03967522=

    You can use a Windows or Mac running a version of the OS that is authorized by the CD.  The Windows driver can be downloaded and used.  But you would need to use another computer to get the printer on the network and then it might work wireless with 10.9.1

  • Can someone tell me how / if I can connect my very old Macbook Pro (2007 - OS10.6.8) to my HDTV?

    I'm looking for information on how to do it, but did not get everything that deals with my antique Macbook. I wish I could see the videos (Vimeo, etc.) on a larger screen. Thanks in advance!

    The first thing to do would be to identify exactly what MacBook Pro you have, and by extension the ports there.

  • Spots on the screen from macbook pro 13 early 2015

    I am from Nepal and bought Macbook pro 13 Futureworld last year. I noticed stains and spots on Macbook pro early 2015. Its the apple care warranty. I would like to know if it is covered by the apple care warranty or not. With this question, I also think questions of wifi signal that falls and has bad reception. Windows 10 Hp431 works very well, Iphone5 too connects well to the router and on speedtest shows better resistance than that of the macbook pro 13.

  • Is it possible that someone from Apple can activate my IPhone 5 c, when the lock screen, says "disabled: connect to iTunes?

    So I changed my password, took a NAP, and when I woke up, I couldn't remember the password. So now, my phone says "disabled: connect to iTunes '. Is it possible that someone from Apple can activate my phone (preferably without restoring to the factory)?

    Once disabled, it cannot be re-enabled in the restaurant if you plant.

    An Apple Store can do for you. but you can also just connect to a computer running iTunes and do it yourself.

    No matter how you do it, it will be restored.
