You many need to reseat the Apple DVI to ADC Adapter that is connecting your Apple Cinema HD 23" to your Mac.

If that adapter is not properly seated, it can cause a color distortion with the display. Also, if the adapter is damaged, that can also impact proper resolution and color balance.

To try and resolve this issue for you, I have a procedure I would like you to try:

----------------------------------------------------------------
-SAFE BOOT MODE-

I am going to have you take your Mac into Safe Mode to see if we can't isolate what may be affecting your display's resolution.

Try these steps:

• Reboot your Mac
• Upon restarting your Mac, press the Shift key.
• Hold the Shift key until you see a White Screen with Gray Apple icon and eventually a spinning gear.
• When you see the Spinning gear, release the Shift key.
• Allow the Mac to continue booting up. Also this may take a little while
(NOTE: this may take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes to load to the Safe mode screen depending on the performance of your Mac, but if it exceeds this time, shutdown your Mac and try just once more. It may have just frozen up the first time around for you.)

• You are going to enter the Safe Mode (which looks like your main desktop environment - the only difference is certain startup items are disabled.)

• Once within the Desktop in Safe Mode
• From the Finder Menu, click Go> Go to Folder
• Type in this line: /System/Library/StartupItems
• This path, is going to take you to the System Library folder which has all of your Mac OS X Startupitems.
• Remove all of those folders to the Trash.

*Reboot your Mac normally and see if you can access your normal User desktop environment.

For the brave of heart, You can disassemble the monitor. After you get in to the inside of it, you'll see a circuit panel with 6 ballast coils on it. On my Cinema display, what happened was that the solder joints on some of those coils had cracked, causing intermittent connection. After hitting all the connections with a soldering iron to heal the cold solder joints and re-assembling it, it is working perfectly fine now.

The date and time information may not be embedded in the video file itself, but rather in the metadata of the file. When you transfer the video from your camera to your computer, the metadata may not be transferred along with the video. To preserve the date and time information on your downloaded videos, you can try the following:

1. Use a video player that displays metadata: Some media players, such as VLC media player, allow you to view the metadata of a video file. If the metadata contains the date and time information, you may be able to view it using such a player.
2. Transfer the video using a program that preserves metadata: Some file transfer programs, such as Image Capture on Mac, will preserve metadata when transferring files. You may try using such a program to transfer your videos.
3. Use a metadata editor to add date and time information: You can try using a metadata editor, such as ExifTool, to add the date and time information to your video files.

It's worth noting that not all video file formats support metadata, so depending on the format of your video files, it may not be possible to preserve the date and time information.

2. Reinstall macOS: Open the Disk Utility app on the other Mac and select the iMac disk. Choose "Erase" and follow the on-screen instructions to erase the iMac's drive. After erasing, quit Disk Utility and follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall macOS.
3. Restore from Time Machine Backup: If you have a Time Machine backup of the iMac, you can restore the backup to the iMac after reinstalling macOS.

If these steps don't work, you may need to seek assistance from an Apple Store or a professional repair service.

It's possible that your Gear Head Webcam F#2 4.8mm is not compatible with the new MacMini 2021 running the Monterrey operating system (macOS Monterey). The best way to check for compatibility is to visit Gear Head website and check for the compatibility list for the webcam with the MacMini 2021 running the Monterrey operating system. If the webcam is not on the list, it's possible that it may not be compatible with the new operating system. If the webcam is not compatible with the new operating system, it may not be able to connect to the MacMini or be recognized by the Zoom app. Alternatively, you can try connecting the webcam to the MacMini using a USB-C adapter and see if that resolves the issue. You may also want to check if there is any new firmware update available for the webcam or the Zoom app that might resolve the issue. If the issue still persists, it would be best to contact Gear Head customer support for further assistance and check if there is a way to make the webcam compatible with the new operating system or if there is any other solution that can be provided.
