Desk mounted articulated arm for 24" iMac?

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone recommend a desk mounted, height adjustable articulated arm that's suitable for the 24" iMac, please? Must be available in the UK. This could be the clincher between an iMac and a MBP - and i'm looking to order next week!
Any bad experiences with fitting the Apple VESA Mount?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have used glass topped desks, I don't think apart from possibly getting broke by accident they are good at absorbing vibrations from keyboard or maybe even the Mac itself..I invested in a nice oak table, centre iMac -> Right, Printer -> Left, 2 x External HD's..plus lots of space for card readers/documents/office & cell phones etc etc etc... I have a small filing cabinet under the desk..works for me.
Don't forget a ""comfortable chair"" ------- happy key tapping...L

Desk mount articulating arm 24" Imac

I am trying to find a zero footprint mount for my 24" Imac. All I find does not seem to be able to hold the weight. I can't wall mount due to location. I've spent hours online but can not find what I'm looking for.

Ahhhh! Now I see!
Try this....
Ask Mom if its OK to get one. Also ask Mom to help you get it all fixed up. Problem solved - I hope!

There are other sources for this type of mount.
Regards and good luck.

Articulating Arm for 30" Cinema Display

Has anyone had any luck finding a good articulating arm (desk mount or wall mount) that can handle the weight and that is VESA compliant. The base that comes with the display just eats away too much of my surface area. I bought the VESA Mount Adapter, but am very confused regarding the mounting arms.
Thanks,
SR

Yes! Me as well.
I'm finding things online, but they all look shady.

Adjustable arm for 24" iMac

Has anyone come across a working VESA desk mount arm that support the 24" iMac's 25 lbs? Anybody have any experience with the Egrotron LX (rated at 20 lbs) or the Moview mv17dc (rated at 25 lbs)? Is there another DESK MOUNT arm that anybody has experience with that will work with a 25 lb iMac?

Whats the best desk arm for an imac

I want to mount my iMac on a movable arm. but there are several out there. which one would be best? I also have two other 24" monitors, and would like to mount them on either side, and be adjustable. but do any of these arms seperate enough to put the mac in the middle?

Could also just be an accumulation of dust on the botton grill work and small air intake behind the stand that is causing the iMac and graphics to run hot.
Every few months I shut down (stopping the fans) and vigorously vacuum the bottom grill work and small intake of my 2006 Early Core Duo to keep it running cool.
Check your current tempuratures with iStat Pro, vacuum the air intakes and check again. Apple - Downloads - Dashboard Widgets - iStat Pro
Unfortunatly if however the Graphic's chip is damaged from repeated overheating, then really the only fix is a very expensive repair or a new iMac.

Articulating arm recommendation for 24" iMac?

Can anyone recommend a good, reasonably priced articulating desk mount arm for a 24" iMac?

The Apple store online has some vesa wall mount adapter kit, it may not
have everything you'd need, but there is some information there for a start.

Other online or retail vendors may have additional products along this line;
and additional parts for this system are said to exist. Maybe to look further
on the Apple store accessories page may yield a few more pieces.

Will there be an Ergotron MX Desk Mount arm for the IPAD 2?

Having trouble finding a functional AND attractive clamping desk mount for a drafting table (which sits at an incline). The Ergotron is pefect but only made for computer monitors. After having researched this for a couple of weeks, Im here to tell you guys at Apple that there is a BIG hole in the market for IPad clamping desk mounts that arent ugly and cumbersom. This Ergontron in an IPad format would sell bazillions!

tdog10000, I work at Ergotron. We are just launching information on a new Universal Tablet Cradle, part number 80-106-085 for $39. It will attach to any mount with VESA. Find on ergotron.com in accessories category. Will be available later in June.

Good Computer Desk for 24" iMac?

After being a Windows user since version 3.0 (Bill Gates will burn in **** for that one) I just got a 24" iMac. Since my hobby is photography and imaging programs are resource intensive, I initially priced out a Dell Precision with Dell's 24" monitor to use with Vista. As much out of idleness as anything else, I wandered into an Apple store a played around with the 24" iMac. I was more than a little surprised to find out I could have the sleekly designed iMac with a stable UNIX based OS for about $100 less than the Dell. So far I am very satisfied with the iMac. The lack of overhead created by virus and spyware programs makes even web browsing much faster than on a Windows machine.
My huge L shaped computer desk is much bigger than I need for the iMac, plus it has gotten a bit beat up looking over the years. I wonder if anyone has found a computer desk that really works well with the 24" iMac? I don't need Ethan Allen quality furniture; a good laminate finish will be fine. I need ready access to a letter size Epson printer and an Epson PictureMate. I also have a phone, DSL modem and wireless router. A couple of drawers built into the desk would be a nice feature.
It's brutally cold here in Central Illinois, so before I head out shopping I thought I'd ask for some recommendations here. I have access to most national retailers, with the exception of Ikea and Costco, though both of them have stores only a couple of hours away in the Chicago 'burbs.
Thanks for any advice.

Imac 21,5" Desk Mount removal

Hi Guys,
I'm from Italy and I've been looking for some info about the removal of the stand for my iMac 21,5".
Some forums on internet say that this action isn't possible on the iMac I own.
Sound strange even if I've already tried several times.
If You look at this Youtube video for a Led cinema (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cmm7jWU-g2s)
I can say that it's not really a different system of My iMac!!! ... or maybe yes.
The target is to create a different stand to carry the iMac with me and make a specific bag to put it in.
I've tried by using a small credit card into the backside slot, where the mount fits in my iMac. Looking through the slot on the back of the computer I've been able to see the torx screws on a similar adapter .... no result. So Sad for this!!!
Has Anybody tried to do this action? Let me know your experience.
Thanks in advance , Alex.

I took away my backup disk with me so just took it from there excellent. I am back home at present working on my imac. When I go to use my macbook air on these projects (when away on boat) is it easiest to simply copy the Project and Events folders in total from my imac onto the other machine and do the same upon my return in reverse?

Hi,
I'm planning to get this (http://www.amazon.com/Z-Line-Designs-ZL810-01DU-Claremont-Desk/dp/B002FYGP5I/ref =sr_1_2?s=furniture&ie=UTF8&qid=1316563206&sr=1-2) Is this model handles iMac?
According to my own experience 24 inches for depth is on the edge. 30 inches (as the professional desk's have) may be better as you need space for the forearms, mouse handling or the trackpad. Height adjustable may also be a benefit.
A tray for the keyboard looks nice and tidy but most likely you will have placed the keyboard on the desk for convenience.
If the keyboard is placed in the tray and you're writing the forearms are always in mid air and the open drawer is between your belly and your work.
Not a suggestion but an example for a good computer desk is this one --> https://www.schooloutfitters.com/catalog/product_info/pfam_id/PFAM9172/products_ id/PRO22878?sc_cid=nextag.com_SPT-38902ADJ

3rd party Vesa for 2013 iMac 27'' ?

hi guys
was thinking about keeping my late 2009 27'' iMac i7 a while longer BUT a few, unexpected "extra pennies" came tumbling in &.....here i am thinking about it ! ;-)
however i'm NOT sold on the idea of getting it either with a desk stand OR a OEM fitted Vesa mount ! even if mine's mounted on an Ergotron wall arm...
i've always needed/managed to sell my used iMacs for a reasonable sum, reasonable enough for the buyer to make it worth their while, reasonable enough for me so i DON'T have to fork out the entire price of the new machine's
it DOES help & so far the friends who bought my iMacs ARE very happy with them - what i call a good deal all around...
under this new ''either/or'' stand policy my gut feeling is that.....when time comes to re-sell it & upgrade to something else, users who actually wall/desk mount their iMacs being A LOT fewer than those who don't, means i'll be kindda stuck with an unsold machine for a LOOONG time !! or one i'll HAVE to sell for a lot less to a MUCH smaller crowd of potential buyers ? :-b
i have googled up the availability of 3rd party Vesa mounts availability up but besides the fanfarre of ''Vesa mounts FINALLY available at '' spread all over the web ( as if something unheard of.. ) i couldn't really find anything
so my question is : has anyone seen, heard of, bought, is making one such Vesa mount for the 2013 iMac 27'' ? i'd rather pay an  Service Center to mount it AND keep it's desk stand to resell it later, you know ?
much obliged
Nuno

I have the same dilemma, though I usually sell my old computers on ebay rather than to friends. It appears there is no solution at this time that will allow us to have our cake and eat it.
I am opting to buy the iMac with the Vesa mount and I figure that while there are few buyers on eBay for an iMac with a Vesa mount, there are virtually no sellers.
When it comes time to sell my iMac, I will be the only one selling a machine like mine on ebay. So anyone who wants one will be happy to pay what it's worth - which is exactly what one with a stand is worth. That's my gamble.
There is also a chance that a 3rd party Vesa mounted stand will be available by the time I sell the computer, and I could offer the computer with either option.
At this point my only other choice is to buy an iMac with a stand, which is unacceptable - or wait, which is also unacceptable.
I guess we'll see in a few years whether the gamble was worth it.
This thread has inspired me to send Ergotron an email requesting that they consider making an elegant Vesa mounted iMac stand.
