[QUOTE="Rodney D, post: 1785411, member: 398135"] Hey Fellas, Im just giving you an update as promised. I got the Late 2009 iMac working flawlessly as the 2nd display. Im loving the extra screen real estate. i used a mini display cable male to male on both ends and connected it to the thunderbolt port of the 2014 and the other end to the mini display port of the 2009. It detected the 2nd display without a problem. WOW!! What a great use for my 2009 iMac since it was literally sitting in a corner collecting dust. I couldn't bring myself to sell it. it was my first Mac and we've been through a lot of recording sessions together. So its kinda sentimental. I hope I can get a few more years as a display before it dies. Thanks for all your help [/QUOTE]
