No widescreen resolution support mountain lion

cjwfuller · 10-23-2012, 08:50 AM

I can confirm that I also have this problem on my Macbook Pro (late 2012) using OS 10.8.2. I have a LG widescreen monitor and the highest resolution that I can get is 1280*1024 which is not widescreen so everything is distorted. All other resolutions are also non-widescreen

.

Is there going to be a fix for this? Many thanks.

With the adapter and a VGA cord plugged into the monitor, I get 1680x1050 widescreen support. Of course the crispness and clarity is not what I could get off a DVI cable but at least the screen is not stretched.

Since there doesn't seem to be any update coming till 2013, I've decided to return this paperweight. I'll be buying a J5 create. Wish me luck.
