You even have to eject them all manually before turning off the target Mac.ĭon't get too excited though, since the target Mac isn't running full blown OS X it only implements basic storage drivers and optimizations.

MacBook Pro accessing the iMac's sole HDD over Thunderbolt in Target Disk Mode The drives appear like normal removable disks on the host Mac: In this mode the target Mac boots into a special EFI state that allows all of its drives (HDDs, SSDs, optical, anything connected to the computer) to be mounted by the host Mac. With only Thunderbolt connected, the FireWire logo disappears - you're now in Target Disk Mode over TB Hold down T and you'll get both Thunderbolt and FireWire logos at boot Connect any two 2011 iMacs, 2011 MacBook Pros or any combination of the two with a Thunderbolt cable, reboot one of them while holding down the T key and you'll boot into target disk mode.

I take it that the new adapter did not work either, notwithstanding the availability of the instructions. Good luck chancing onto the right setting for that adapter. Once it is up and running, I can change the frequency (pixle resolution) using the control panel. One of my Beige G3s has to have the video PRAM reset to the default of 640 x 480 in order for it to start up properly with a new monitor. Start up while holding down the command + option + P + R keys. If the monitor is multi sync and looking to see what frequency the computer is set at and the computer is looking at the monitor to see what frequency it is set at, you end up with confusion. Also, consider zapping the video parameters at startup. One suggestion would be to find a monitor that is NOT multi-sync and test that. A second PCI video card would allow you the option to start up with one monitor and test settings on the other.
Now, as part of the startup routine, the computer will auto detect the frequency of the monitor connected and reset the monitor. That allowed you to see the controls and frequency of the other monitor while you changed settings. Older computers with onboard video and a nubus videocard and OS 7.1 would let you set one monitor as your start up monitor and have BOTH control panels on your startup monitor. "Do I have to power down the machine each time I disconnect the cable and change the settings, connect and restart the machine for it to recognize a signal?"
