Mac laptops unable to display on some projectors

Incident Report for Rowan University

Investigating

Information Resources & Technology is investigating an issue that is preventing some Mac laptops — both personal and Rowan-managed — from displaying properly on certain projectors in classrooms and other spaces.

Users have reported that they only see a black screen when they are trying to project, though the laptop otherwise appears to be connected.

If you encounter this issue in a classroom, we recommend using the desktop computer to display your content. In conference rooms or event spaces, use the desktop computer, if one is available, or switch to a different device, if needed.

At this time, we do not have an estimated time for resolution, as the issue appears to be a broader compatibility problem between macOS and certain projection technologies. We will provide an update when more information is available.
