Hi i have come to here for information i have googled but could not find anything (with evidence) of working adapters with a mac mini 10.8.2 before anyone says use the thunderbolt port, that is going to be used for ethernet. Again before anyone says why (multi pathing). Basically i am looking for an adapter either hdmi to vga (now i bought one but does not work) has anyone used Kanex ATV Pro HDMI to VGA Adapter with a mac mini?

Or is there a usb to vga that will work with a mac mini 10.8.2 thanks any help would appreciated. Jason7119 wrote: HDMI does not carry an analog signal, so there isn't a way to get a VGA connection from the HDMI port.

Connect to HDMI from your Mac HDMI port: Connects directly to HDMI using an HDMI cable. USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) port: Connects to HDMI using an adapter, such as the Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter. Mini DisplayPort: Connects to HDMI using a third-party Mini DisplayPort to HDMI.

The Thunderbolt port is your only option. Not true at all.

You are correct that HDMI is digital only, but with a scan convertor you can convert it to a standard VGA signal. We have some in use with Apple TVs on one of our campuses.

These work perfectly: Re-reading the OP, I realized that the link I put here is what he is looking for. EDIT: Just grabbed one I had on my desk and tested it with one of our MAC minis, it worked perfectly, running 10.8 on it too. Edited Jan 22, 2013 at 17:24 UTC. For those that like to know what i am doing.

At the moment we have a floor full of macs which connect to a windows server which is connected to a san fo file share (issues with lock files etc) (we also have window machines and servers as well) we want to connect the mac mini to the san (via iSCSI Initiator) and the macs can then go through that to access the shares and we can use certain policies which work better, rather then windows server to the macs. I got the thunder bolt to ethernet because of speed. I just wanted a simple light adapter so i can connect the mac mini to a kvm switch in a server rack. This might be exactly what i am looking for. Usb to vga (i know it does say it works with a mac, but will it work with a mac mini on 10.8.2?) as it says Includes •USB to DVI Adapter •DVI to HDMI Adapter •DVI to VGA Adapter but i am looking for usb to vga.

• Adobe Photoshop Mix (Mobile). • Adobe Portfolio (Mobile).

Or have i missed somthing somewhere. Has anyone tried the above?

Thanks for everyones help, put me in the right direction. I have recently purchased an ATV HDMI to VGA adaptor from MacMall. I am using it to connect an Apple TV to the VGA input on a projector, and have also tested it with the screen on my office computer. This works very well, the price was not bad (.
