can i use this for only 1 monitor? my mini display port was broken on my MBA so only the USB ports work.

Yeah, you don't have to use 2 monitors. You can use this instead of the mini display port.

I can't guarantee, but I am pretty sure you can. The computer will detect the single output.
356765
Yes you can. I've never used it exclusively for one but if I plug it in before my other one it'll go up!

Sure. and a note: I don't think you'll get a boot screen on a USB monitor, but I could be wrong on Apple OS...

I'm not sure what you are asking when writing about an external monitor and then about main monitor. This device can only work with a single monitor that can be connected to either a desktop or to the laptop.

If you have an extra display port not in use on the laptop and you want to connect it to a VGA monitor you would want to get this, otherwise no it wouldn't. You probably want a USB to (DVI, HD, VGA) adaptor so you can add an extra display adaptor.

This can be used with a single monitor, just leave one of mounts off. Very sturdy unit.

I am using it for a 2nd monitor for my MacBookPro. If your MacMini has a thunderbolt connection, I don't see why it wouldn't work for a 2nd monitor. In doing a quick search, it appears this is supported (providing you connect the 1st monitor via the hdmi-dvi adapter). https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4732629?start=0&tstart=0 Happy Dual Monitor computing!!!

I've had my laptop hooked up to an HDMI monitor at the same time as this USB monitor, so I had three monitors going at one, but I've never tried two USB monitors.

I have a Dell monitor connected to the docking station's Mini DisplayPort via port via a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter. I don't know that you can connect two monitors, but you can certainly use your MacBook's screen in conjunction with an external monitor. I hope this helps.

Don't think so. Works great with 2 monitors. FYI, the video card came with two DVI and one mini-HDMI outputs.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that? I have always just used one monitor for two computers.

You need to buy two. Each adapter allows to connect one single monitor using USB port.

Yes you can use dual monitors with it. bear in mind that the video card has the correct pin configuration. It is not the standard VGA connection to the computer

I've tried it on a 2011 MBA and it worked just fine (it was about a year ago). I had two 1920 x 1080 DVI monitors plugged into the DualHead2Go Digital ME and the macbook air worked great with all 3 monitors (2 external plus the Macbook air's builtin monitor).Also, I highly recommend the BetterSnapTool for managing your desktop space on the two external monitors - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bettersnaptool/id417375580?mt=12

If this monitor is your second monitor, then Yes. If it's your only input, then No. Be sure to use the included USB cable because if you don't, your monitor may not work.

I'm not sure because I only use 3 monitors. There IS a selection to duplicate the display on monitors 1 AND 2, OR on monitors 1 AND 3. I don't know if you'd have the selection you want if 4 monitors were connected. I'd suggest that you email the manufacturer directly at support@visiontek.com and ask your question. Their website is at http://www.visiontek.com.

unless your macbook has two outputs, (which macbooks don't) you cannot use more than 1 external display

Mini Display ports are typically for Mac products. It allows one connection to work with many different types of cords. Like a USB connector in a sense. You need to look up what type of connector your unit uses but since it is not Mac, no it won't work.

Nope. One should do you just fine. Your computer should us the existing display driver for the first one then this will drive the second monitor.
