I tried plugging in with the usb 3.0 it lights up blue, the external display shows up for a brief second showing the Universal Graphic Adapter logo the same goes for the usb-c. Conclusion I got from that is the adapter is working.
When I check the DisplayLink software no display link adapter recognized. Also, checking the allowed accessories tabs inside of privacy & security is non existent on the Mac mini M2 base model.

Does anybody know what the issue could be? I really want to keep the Mac mini but I don't see the point in buying the M2 pro for an extra 1000 just to be able to use an extra screen. Please let me know. |
