If the screen on your laptop is greater than that of the projector you wont get a picture. You desperately make a phone call trying to see if one of your colleagues has the adapter, but they are not answering. Make sure to set the output to the projector as a second display and set the resolution of that to the native resolution of the projector. Luckily, the IT guy comes to the rescue! He tells you, “Oh! You have a Mac laptop, the projector only has VGA input so you need a USB-C to VGA adapter”, which neither you or him have on hand. Try changing HDMI channel inputs on your display - there may be an issue with either the EDID or HDCP handshake. Then you struggle for the next few minutes trying to find the right adapter or cable (that you know you have in your bag) and you treat the audience to several minutes of fiddling around in your bag talking to yourself and asking your invisible assistant, “where is that cable?”. You’ve worked on it really hard, getting those amazing transitions on your slides, added video and/or sound clips, the perfect (funny) pictures, it’s just an amazing presentation! You are confident, caffeinated, and ready to roll… and when it’s your moment to shine, you can’t connect to the projector. Has this ever happened to you?
