[QUOTE="Jisoo, post: 1811467, member: 401610"] Thank you for the warm welcome. I have been using Mac since the PowerBook G4 days but haven't had much issues regarding the display because there weren't any 4K display scaling to worry about. Let me start off with an apology for choosing the wrong category to post my question and I appreciate the correction. The "Default for display" you spoke of is set to 1080p even though the TV has a 4K display. In addition, I am trying to set the TV as an extended monitor as the real estate of 13" screen is quite limited. I contacted the online Apple Support and the only feedback I was able to get was there are some external displays that are supported for scaling while some are not supported. He was curious himself what brand or what specific requirements are for the external displays in order to achieve scalable output. ? [/QUOTE]
