Apple Mac Mini won't work with HDMI to VGA converter
6,618
I found the following information on Apple's Site:
The HDMI port will drive digital connections—such as DVI—using the adapter that came with the Mac mini, but cannot be used for analog displays such as VGA. You can purchase a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter separately to drive analog displays.

I bought an Apple Mac Mini i5 yesterday. My Samsung 19" monitor only has a VGA input, so I bought an HDMI to VGA converter cable. The monitor won't detect my Mac Mini device when I connect them with the converter. Why not/what can I do about this?

Chris Upchurch almost 13 yearsThunderbolt is backwards compatible with Mini DisplayPort, so a Mini DisplayPort adapter will work with the Thunderbolt port on the Mac Mini.
