MacBook – HDMI output problem with late-2013 13 inch macbook pro with retina

displayhdmimacbook pro

I just bought late-2013 13-inch MacBook Pro with retina.
I want to connect it to my Samsung 32'' TV at home and DELL u2412m monitor at work. None of these connection is working right now.

MacOS X 10.9 display preferences tells me that a display is connected, and enlarge the screen to it, but no picture on the display is showing. I also try to mirror my screen to external hdmi-connected display with the same lack of "result": no picture.

Can one help me?

Update: Logs while connecting external tv:

Update 2: just booted into ubuntu 13.10 (from usb stick) – the same problem as on mac – ubuntu display preferences tells me that a display is connected, buy no picture on the display is showing.

Looks like a hardware problem on my mac (or, a little change, efi one)…

Update 3: I forgot to update this later back. So. This was a hardware problem and Apple replace my macbook with new one (may be because it was less than 2 weeks in use and the problem was there since the begining).

Best Answer

I had similar one on MBP Early-2013 (15 Inch Retina) with HDMI port. Running Yosemite. But today I've updated CUDA drivers for GT650M and suddenly HDMI ports started working just like it used to have before. Try it. It may help you as well.

It turns out that the communication between the TV and Mac is constantly trying to find another profile to use. Probably because the TV is telling Mac it is something else then Mac is telling it to do.

So looking in the profiles setting using the ColorSync and the available vs assigned profiles.

HD SD

The pic below show the solved solution with correct profiles.

profiles

The current profile was set to SD and not HD.

After changing the profile back to HD (High Definition) factory setting all was finally fine.

In plain English--Mac was telling the TV to use the SD profile (standard definition) normally not a problem but, the TV was replaying I am HD, and that is where the confusion came from.

What's officially "supported" and what's possible don't match. I have a late-2012 rMBP and got 4K out of it at 30Hz.

I took a screenshot as proof: enter image description here Just a normal mini-displayport<->displayport cable was used.
