I *think* it can be done.<br>
<br>
You can get from USB-C to HDMI very easily (Apple will sell you a
big expensive adapter to do this, there are cheaper non-Apple ones).<br>
That gives you female HDMI.<br>
From there, you connect a HDMI-HDMI (male to male, standard) cable.<br>
<br>
You then need to plug the far end of that into a HDMI female to
mini-DisplayPort male adapter, which does exist:<br>

(Hopefully Shaun can track down one in the UK for you). It's <b>*vital*</b>
that adapter takes the HDMI as the source, not the mini-DisplayPort.<br>
<br>
You then connect that to a mini-DisplayPort female to female
coupler, which also does exist:<br>

<br>
to which you plug in the cable from your Apple Cinema Display.<br>
<br>
Being an engineer, I'm *not* going to guarantee that will work, as
it's an Apple display which might decide it's not going to put up
with anything other than a Mac's mini-DisplayPort/Thunderbolt socket
on the end of its cable (Remember many Apple cables have embedded
DRM).<br>
<br>
But it's definitely worth a shot!<br>
<br>

Any advice on connecting one of the new MacBooks with only the USB-C port to a cinema display (with a mini display port, not thunderbolt).
