Other wireless transfer options aren't very practical for files of the sizes you'll be dealing with. USB-C can handle video files zipping back and forth (through an adapter or new cable, for now). Videos taken with an iPhone can be magically ported to the machine via iCloud, Dropbox, or most other cloud services of your choice, so that’s easy enough. The same solutions and limitations apply to video editors.

That sort of set-up would be basically unworkable for pro photographers shuttling RAW files, though, and probably more trouble than it's worth even when dealing with JPEG files in any quantity. Potentially easing the frustration is the fact that most modern cameras have built-in Wi-Fi features, so you can hypothetically leave your card in your camera, beam photos to your phone or a cloud service, and use it as a passthrough to your computer’s hard drive. In the meantime, you could plug a USB card reader into a $13 or $19 or $79 adapter.
But if you use one of those old-school “standalone” cameras and one of those dinosaur “SD” or “CompactFlash” cards, you’ll need to wait until somebody makes a card-to-USB-C adapter to get much use out of the MacBook. I am now using a USB-C to DisplayPort cable for the Monitor, and Apple's charger with its USB-C cable to power the MacBook Pro.If you use an iPhone for most photos and directly upload your shots to your iCloud photo library (or the cloud service of your choice), you’re set. I wish I had checked HP Monitor's power delivery capabilities against the requirements of the MacBook Pro before ordering the Monitor. The only way out was to use MacBook's charger separately. When connected through the USB-C cable, I do get a 'charging' indication on the menu bar icon, but the MacBook Pro, in reality, keeps discharging. HP Monitor's power supply is not capable of charging the MacBook Pro.It is a shame that the charging cable supplied by Apple with the MacBook is not capable of handling data transfer. I changed the cable to USB-C 3.1 Gen 2, and the problem was solved. I had used the MacBook charging cable, and the HP Monitor would not detect the source. As you have said, it was the USB-C cable that was the culprit.I shifted to USB-C with DisplayPort, and the MacBook became cooler than before. The MacBook was running unusually hot when I was using the HDMI cable.Or you could submit an eMail to HP, and wait for a reply. With some monitors, it would have a sleep option (resulting in a dull-colored light when sleeping), so move the cursor over it.Ĭhatting with the Manufacturer (HP): Visit HP.com, and see if chatting is available. If it is not operable, then it’s the most likely monitor itself. If it is operable on the other device, and not your Mac computer, then this would have to do with the Computer’s interoperability with the monitor. Single Out you Mac: Plug in your monitor to another device, if an option, and see if it is operable. If the background is black, toggle between the devices, pressing Command+F1 The Mac: Select the Monitor as an output device.
The Monitor: Change the input source for the video, and see if that solves this.Security Software: Disable it, as it might be restricting access to the port. Did you try one one of the multiport adapters? Either one mentioned should work, being that HDMI and VGA are shown. When connected, I get the MacBook powered through it, but the display won't show. I am trying to use the USB Type-CTM 3.1 upstream which is supposedly equipped with ' DisplayPort™ 1.2 Video' and ' Power delivery up to 15 W (5V, 3A).' I expect this single connection should have the video uploaded on the monitor and power delivery to the MacBook. USB Type-C™ Transaction Speed - Maximum 5 GB/sĭata & Video Power Delivery 15 W (5V, 3A)
Upstream ports (1) Rear USB Type-CTM 3.1 upstream USB Ports (3 total) 2 downstream USB 3.0 ports and 1 USB Type-C™ upstream HDCP support Yes, HDMI, DisplayPort™, USB Type-C™
Thanks, TheLittles, for the quick response.įollowing are the specifications of the video ports of the monitor (taken from the HP Spec Document):Ĭonnector Types DisplayPort™ (1) DisplayPort™ 1.2
