[QUOTE="wok666, post: 1421131, member: 260329"] I have a 24-inch iMac which I got in 2009. Unfortunately the monitor has died, while the computer is still working. I had the choice of either repairing it for a lot of money, or just connect an external monitor. So I got a miniport to VGA adapter and I connected a monitor I had sitting about (a Dell :o ). Nothing happened. Monitor does not seem to pick up signal:'( Anyone any advice? ps The monitor has a female input, the adapter is female out as well, so I had to get male to male extension. Maybe something to do with it? [/QUOTE]
