Jun 14, 2013 Is there any way to make MBP 17 (Intel HD and nVidia GT graphics, SnowLeo) or MBA 13 (Mountain Lion) display 2560x1080 on external monitor (LG 29' ultrawide)? My MacPro with RadeonX1900 card (10.5.8) does it perfectly but I cannot find a way to get the laptops to do it. Switching apps, still no good. I have the 29EA73 ultra wide and a MacBook pro 13' you can't get 2560x180 You just set the highest you can when you click on system preferences Then display you can set 1080 then where it says arrange click on that To take you to next screen where you can set the highest there is I always get a box on screen telling me its not set to 2560x1080 But Macs don't support that size but the picture. Nov 01, 2015 I've got a widescreen monitor (LG 25UM56-P) that runs at 2560x1080, but unsurprisingly my best resolution option is standard, stretched 1080p. So, my questions are: 1.
So i am about to buy this and did a bit of research trying to find out if it is supported. After my research i came to the conclusion that OS X Sierra might not support it and that you need some special kind of adapter which is active. Xlstat get full for mac.
So i figured that i will buy this or So my question is will any of those adapters work and did OS X Sierra fix the problem with not supporting 2560x1080. I am running a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) with macOS Sierra Version 10.12.5 EDIT (SOLUTION): So it didn't work out without help from using SwitchResX but now i got it to work nicely. Woah, the difference with is that he has a 2016 MacBook pro, you have a mid 2012 and you are trying to run.
You will need an active adapter of some sort. Last time I checked apples website Im pretty sure it said mid 2013 MacBooks and later support the higher resolutions. Im not going to recommend an adapter because I don't think I have that expertise but id wait until another redditer comes along and gives you a recommendation because you do need to do some work in order for it to work on your MacBook. And most likely you will need switch res x program to force it. But again wait till someone confirms this.
I had the same monitor LG 29EA93 and the only way I could get it to work was the older version of SwitchResX 3.8.6. Using new macmini the best I could do was 2560x1080 @ 52Hz. Took a lot of tinkering with the setting but you just can't seam to get the full 60Hz otherwise screen goes out of range and you get a black screen. Even getting it to 52Hz was a struggle was easier sticking to 51Hz. Just go to custom setting hit + and change the bottom right Vertical Scan rate to 51Hz. Sent the monitor back as it had over 22 stuck pixels, hoping that during this week’s CES they will finally release this monitor to the USA as the rest of the world have had it for months. Hopefully their quality control has also improved after all LG supply the Thunderbolt LED's to Apple with zero stuck pixels least they could do is the same when purchased direct.

I was having the same problems as most on this thread, I tried the Mini display port to display port cable and although the screen was OK the resolution was poor, then tried a Mini display to HDMI and that brought up the same problems as hdmi to hdmi, so now using the old version of switchresx 3.8.7, from HDMI to HDMIi, after trying the new version that didn't seem to work and all is great. I was worried that the LG29, would have to go back, BTW using a Macbook Pro Retina 15' and the settings above worked.
