P2715Q, 2015 Macbook Pro, Setup help
Hello--
I'm trying to get my new Dell p2715q monitor to work with my 2015 Macbook Pro, running 10.11.6
I'm realizing that Mac is not supported, is there a a way to get this to work, or should I return it ?
Thanks for your help--Anne

Apologies for missing your post. I think that the 2015 MBP (Macbook Pro) has an HDMI out port and two TB2 (Thunderbolt 2) out ports? Correct? If yes, the provided mDP to DP cable should work.
* Turn both the P2715Q and the MBP off
* Connect in this way =
MBP TB2 out --> P2715Q mDP to DP cable --> P2715Q DP in port
* Turn the MBP on
* Turn the P2715Q on
* Press the P2715Q Input Source button and choose DP
* At this point I am not sure if you have to use the Apple operating system to "find" the external monitor?
