[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1520550, member: 24160"] 20% of the reviews for that adapter say it didn't work You could try moving the HDMI cable up/down/around where it attaches to the adapter and see if you can get the picture to come up if you hold it just right. I'd send it back and try a different adapter not the cheapest one you can find. With adapters, would suggest sticking with some of the name brands - not necessarily the most expensive - ones available on Amazon here in the US would be Monoprice, Griffin, Belkin, Startech, Cables Unlimited. Check to see if one of them have a mini-DVI to HDMI cable instead of using adapter + cable. Normal - Your Mac screen is going to go blue for a couple seconds when it detects and attempts to connect to another monitor. [/QUOTE]
