I have an Imac purchased in 2008, will this adapter fit and work for me to stream movies from my computer to TV and get both video and sound?

I have a 2012 Mac book pro and it works, if they are the same model computer it should, I'm not sure what year they upgraded or changed hardware but it works well for me

Bought the same product, tried it on a 2008 Mac Book and a 2013 Mac Book. Great video, no sound. Didn't spend enough time fussing with it to get the sound working. If anyone has the sound working using this cable, it would be nice to hear how it's done.

Yes it does. I just bought this and I have late 2013 27" iMac. It works. I did notice that for movie playback, the audio would sometimes lag behind the video. It may have just been some other factor outside the speakers, but as for music everything is flawless and easy. Also, if you don't have an alternate audio output, just use the aux line.

If your imac has a place to plug in speakers or headphones, then it will work. It will work with phones, media players, etc as well.

I read this but I ignored and bought for my IMac (Mid 2010). It works perfectly. To choose correctly read this article http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3011#4

Yes. I bought mine for my 2008 MacBook. Unfortunately, before 2010 MacBooks were not made to send video and audio through the mini HDMI. So you will need speakers too. The picture is great though.

Well it is IF your iMac has a THUNDERBOLT port-then yes. Older Macs may not have this port as it's a newer development. I have a MacBook Pro- new. This SINGLE cable allow you to stream (audio and video) 1080p directly into your flatscreen via HDMI. Works great- if you have Thunderbolt. If not then I don't know what to tell you.

This adapter will work on any Mac with a Thunderbolt port. If it doesn't pick it up you might need to go to System Preferences and then Network and see it is being detected there

Yes, it should work with no problems. The USB port on the cable is standard size, and it's backward-compatible for previous USB versions. You won't see the speed advantage because your older iMac probably won't support the newer USB transfer speeds, but it should still work with it.

i previously said: if you have a mini-display port, i think it would work. we have two macs in our household (mid 08 and mid 10) and they both work. but i don't know what i was thinking... the mid 08 mac has a special adaptor and a separate wire for the audio so this cord doesn't work on it. but if you have a mini display port you should be fine. sorry for the confusion!

if you have a Thunderbol Port Compatible on your iMac it will work...the small end is what plugs into the computer.it works really well...we have used it several times....

I would assume yes. If you can feed an Hdmi signal from the iMac, it should work. As a side note -I would look at competitor's versions of this projector because the signal goes out for 6 seconds frequently.

I have used it with PS3 and a 2009 iMac and no issues. Sometimes the signal craps out or video and audio are out of sync but you just have to exit and re enter target video mode on your Mac (APPLE + F2) and it always fixes the problem. I have been using this box for almost 2 years now and it works as new.

As long as your Mac has a miniDisplayPort port and your TV has an HDMI input it should work fine. Of course you will need an additional HDMI cable.

If your windows computer has the corresponding input "a mini displayport" then this adapter should work. I have a mac, and this adapter works perfectly.

I used it for hooking up a iMac to a 60" led tv. I would think it should work fine.

Technically it should but that depends on wether or not your iMac puts audio out threw its display port

I guess it works for every Mac. I use it in a Imac 2008 and 2011. Just plug in.
