Googling around I found out that Intel HD Graphics 4000 does (or can) not allocate enough memory for this resolution to work well. When upgrading to 10.9.3 I think it was, that resolution was gone.
When I tried connecting a MacBook Air mid 2012 running 10.8.5, the screen switched to 3840x2160 but half of the screen was just garbage like you said. You said that you could get 3840x2160 on some older OS version. All machines I have tested that can run 3840x2160 had NVIDIA graphics chips. Most models could be ordered with other graphics and built-to-order. My conclusion so far, and I would like you to confirm this if possible, is that the machines being able to use that resolution does NOT have (or use) Intel HD Graphics. The fact still remains that it does work.įor the record, I use an active mini display port to HDMI adapter (Accell) for all my tests mentioned here. I have heard many comments about that resolution not even existing back then too. I have also been trying to find out why OS X running on MacBook Pro retina or MacBook Air 2013/2014 with an Intel HD Graphics 5000 or newer can not be used in 3840x2160, when me too have been running that resolution on an old MacBook Pro 2010 without problems.

The following are the published Apple specifications that state 2560x1600. It is the GPU, not the CPU, that determines supported external display resolution. The true resolution that you are sending will be displayed in the OS X System Preferences > Displays panel as either best for the monitor, or under the scaled setting. I am not familiar with this Dell 3214Q monitor, but it is possible that it has a mode where it up-converts GPU display resolution to an apparent 4K resolution. Even the high-end of the 2011 MacBook Pro models could not produce 4K resolution.
In 2011, there were no 4K consumer monitors on the market, and no one, including Apple, was putting 4K capable GPU in their low-end consumer laptops, because that GPU technology did not exist. My response was based on published Apple specifications for maximum hardware GPU resolution for the HD3000 and the base HD5000 GPU in the respective MacBook Air models.

I cannot find a way to update the drivers or something like I could do on a Windows PC. Or is it because she has 10.9.3? Should I downgrade and then I can have a normal 4K? How can it be that my newer MacBook Air cannot do what a 2011 can do? Is it because her is an i7 CPU?

Before I had 10.9.4 I had 10.8.5 and when I connected it the picture was full 4K but it had some garbage on the screen, so I thought 10.9.4 would fix it and updated to the latest version. When I connect my MacBook Air to the same monitor I only get 1920 x 1080 and there is no way I could find to change it. When she connects her MacBook air to my Dell 3214Q - she can have a normal 4K (3810 x 21XX) resolution with 30Hz - the picture is perfect.
