Is the Apple VESA mount adapter kit needed to use the arm w/a 24" iMac? Or are the included VESA adaptor brackets all that's needed?

Yes it is. It doesn't come with the arm. You will first remove the iMac's stand, attach the VESA mount, and then attach the iMac to the stand. Be careful not to strip the screws (as I did by over tightening the VESA mount). There is a nice assembly video for the product on YouTube that I recommend you watch before setup. Lastly, I was originally upset with this product because it wasn't holding the full weight of my 27 inch iMac, but this was unfounded. Moral of the story? Keep adjusting the tension and it will hold as advertised. I am now very satisfied with this product. Good luck.

Yes. Many people in my office have been using this with both a laptop and a 24" monitor so a 27" iMac safely.

I don't know how large a Mac monitor you have, but the vesa mount (4 screws) was easy to manage with my 21 inch monitor... I think the instructions said the stand could handle up to a certain weight... I don't have the paperwork at home, but i'm sure they must have the documentation online at kangaroo...

Connectivity includes DVI (DVI-to-VGA adapter included). On iMac and G4. Get the DVI to VGA adapter from Apple, then male VGA to male VGA cable should do it. Don't buy that Rite AV cable choose a better brand unless you want to take a chance getting a good one. I bought the Rite AV and one failed in less than a year.

I won't trust it with any monitor over 22". If the IMAC is a all in one computer I would definitely go for a stronger mount!Harvey in Las Cruces, NM

Apple sells a Vesa adapter for both Cinema Displays and iMacs. Installing it takes about 15 minutes(10 minutes if you've done it before). It is not apparent how it is installed. It requires a tool( made from cardboard) size of a credit card, and couple hex Allen wrenches. Many sites have instructions as to how to do it.

I installed a 2009 or 2010 Imac 27" and did worked. It is good arm, just the piece to tight/loose the spring that give the right tension to the arm in relation of the weight, is week related to the pressure you have to make when you adjusted and in my case broke. I have to returned but I am thinking in get it again and be very careful and slow when you tight it

Your Retina 5K display would need to be equipped with a "VESA Mount Adapter". Your Apple dealer/store will know how to ensure yours come with it; or you've already purchased your display, how to attach the adapter to the monitor.

You need a mounting bracket kit. Go to: VideoSecu TV Wall Mount Articulating Arm Monitor Bracket for most 12"-24", some up to 27" LCD LED Plasma Flat Panel Screen TV with VESA 100/75mm ML10B 1E9

I can't answer specifically for the 2013 iMac, but have been using this with my 13" Macbook for over a year with no problems as my only second screen (the Macbook screen being the first). As I recall the Nixeus came with an svg and dvi cable (but not sure) and it has an HDMI option - you can get a converter for that.

I am familiar with iMacs though i don't recall them having holes in the back of the monitor to fasten the bracket. So my guess is that this will not work to mount your iMac to the wall.

I've had the Ergotron MX arm for over a yr. I've been using it for my iMAC 27 (Late 2010). it works fine for me. I shift my iMAC left & right, when i have to access gear at the back. i stowed gear back there intentionally, cuz i know the arm can move like this. I also lift it up and tilt it back, & then return it back to standard viewing position many times, when i'm recording vocals. Works fine, I'd say yes, this arm can work w/ iMAC 27 inch. A few technicalities- the monitor adapter (VESA Mount Adapter for iMAC) weighs 2lb 4oz, according to Amazon.com. My iMAC 27 (release Nov 2010), weighed in i believe 27lb. (i saw 2 different refurbished iMACs 27inch released late 2012, weighing at 21lbs). Your iMAC 27 shouldn't weigh more than mine. The arm holds 30lbs- so with the VESA adapter it should be under 30lbs. If you hardly ever move it, it should be fine. I do NOT recommend stacking drives in the back, or attaching mouse holder trays, or any mounting of sound bars to th screen. I mounted my arm's base to my desktop, particle board wood about 1-1/4" thick. good luck m...

We had to buy extra parts in order to make it work with the Imac because the computer is all in one (Monitor and computer attached). If you like you can send a email to chris_perkins@dai.com and he can let you know what we had to do. thanks

Hi Stacey!The shelf version does since imac stand does not separate from display. We also have an adapter that allows a VESA (bracket type) mount. Don't hesitate to call 800.759.5060 to discuss.Best regards, Ken Thompson / Ait Tech / 800.759.5060

Hello Andrew,This arm is fully compatible with mid 2011 iMac models. For early 2013 iMac's it requires a vesa adapter.Best Regards,Tai,Peace Brothers.
