Greetings,
I currently run a MacBook Pro 13in Mid 2012 - High Sierra 10.13.6.
Decided to finally install a external monitor and my hopes was to mirror it so I can set my MacBook Pro up and out of the way, using the bigger screen in the process. I've tried 3 different monitors now and all will clone, but not mirror. Mirroring will work for a short 25 second time frame and then time out back to sleep. Doing quick searches, I found this is a common issue with High Sierra and mirroring to external monitors. Unfortunately I cannot upgrade my OS any longer and don't really want to upgrade my Mac as it has been beautiful since I have upgraded to a SSD.
Anyone know if they finally got a work around for this issue?
Thanks in advance.
