Does my June 2013 imac Thunderbolt support Thunderbolt 2?

No past or currently shipping Mac supports Thunderbolt 2. The only Mac announced that will is the new Mac Pro.

Does the late 2013 imac come pre-configured with a pcie internal drive or just "support" one?

Im looking at buying the new Imac. Is it just configurable after purchase (which no one would do given the complexity and cost and voided warranty)? There is no option to select pcie configuration during purchase and the language "The updated iMac now features support for PCIe-based flash storage..." from the official press release is vague.

The September 24, 2013 iMac press release states:
"The updated iMac now features support for PCIe-based flash storage that makes Fusion Drive and all-flash storage options up to 50 percent faster than the previous generation.*"
The Apple iMac page says the hard drive is:
Configurable to 3TB hard drive, 1TB or 3TB Fusion Drive, or 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of flash storage.
The Apple Mac Pro page says the hard drive is:
PCIe-based flash storage
Configurable to 512GB or 1TB2
So… does the iMac use PCIe or not. Perhaps some iMacs do and some don’t and Apple doesn’t want to say???

Why does my late 2013 IMac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 keep logging of the administrator while leaving all other users logged on?

Over the past few months I have noticed that my IMac logs off only the administrator account overnight while leaving all other user accounts logged on. The computer does not physically restart, it simply logged out the administator. It has never logged me out while I am using the administrator account, it only logs off the administrator if the computer has been ideal for more than roughly 20 minuets.
I have checked all of my energy saving settings and security settings and nothing appears to fix this problem. However, after browsing some online help forums I decided to check my console to see if anything look out of place and I did find something.
I am not sure what it means but I don't think these error messages are good. Can someone help me figure out what these mean and inform me if they are related to me overall problem of getting logged out?
Thanks

Hi Linc thank you for getting back to me.
I don't see anything labeled as crash reports under system diagnostics. I do not use the console very often because I only do basic things on my iMac so my familiarity with it is not as good.
I know you said you wanted text but I can't past this text here so it is another screen shot. If you see something you want more information on, I can post the text of that specific line.
Keep in mind, since last night when I originally posted, the administrator account has been logged off, while my other account remained logged on and good to go.

How to get Thunderbolt Display recognized in Windows 8.1 through boot camp 2013 iMac

Ok so I have got the run-around quite a few times trying to figure this enigma out. I recently upgraded to the Haswell 2013 iMac from my 2011 iMac. I had been using my thunderbolt display with my "old" iMac and I was running Windows 8.1 through bootcamp. My display worked wonderfully and I had no issues. I just upgraded from windows 8 to windows 8.1, I had no idea that boot camp "does not support windows 8.1."
When I got my new machine I migrated my entire operating system from the old computer to the new (which was way way way harder than I had anticipated). Now it seems that almost everything works besides the thunderbolt monitor, which is not even detected. The monitor works when running OS X, but not when running Windows 8.1.
I just wondered if anyone had already had and fixed this issue, or if it is just a waiting game unitl the new boot camp support drivers for windows 8.1 come out.
Also if anyone could explain why it worked on my old machine and not my new one I would appreciate it, I have some ideas as to why but I would appreciate any input.
Thank you!
-Arthur

FIXED!
Well I just went to the NVIDIA website, downloaded the latest driver for the graphics card, installed it, and now Both monitors work.
Seems like a no brainer,but just in case this issue is a problem for other users I hope that this was helpful.
P.S. Windows 8.1 may not be supported by boot camp yet, but the boot camp driver package for windows 8 along with the graphics card driver I downloaded made my computer work better than I expected!

Does the New Imac 21 works as an external display using thunderbolt to thunderbolt cable plugged into a MacBook Pro?

Will the current iMac with two Thunderbolt ports support up to 12 devices (6 per port) or just 6 total?

Will the current iMac with two Thunderbolt ports support up to 12 devices (6 per port) or just 6 total?

If will handle 7 devices total, you will use one thunderbolt port as an upstream and the other as a downstream.
Take a look at this link, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunderbolt_(interface)

HT201338 Does thunderbolt support the HDMI audio signal?

I often do presentation that include audio. None of the Thunderbolt to HDMI cables carry the audio signal. I typically end up using my Apple TV or an external speaker via the audio out. Does Thunderbolt support audio? I find no documentation on this.

Yes it does if your TB to HDMI adapter supports it and the cable.
If you are having problems getting it to work go into the Sound applet of System Preferences and make sure the Output is to HDMI.

Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices.

Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core (4cores)) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices. Does this need to be done through the Graphics card expansion or a additional card to be inserted?

No. There is no way to upgrade any Mac Pro older then the cylindrical 2013 Mac Pro to ThunderBolt.
The requirements of Thunderbolt require a totally redesigned motherboard and chip set rather any plugin cards. These motherboard were never developed for older Mac Pros.

HT5312 I keep getting an email from Apple telling me that my Apple Id has been successfully reset when I did not reset them. Started early June 2013 and in a month i have had to reset it three times. Apple support was not helpful. Any suggestions?

I keep getting an email from Apple telling me that my Apple Id has been successfully reset. I did not reset it. Since early June 2013 to now i have had to reset it 3 times. It is not an easy one to remember either. Initally I thought it was some pfishing expedition but no purchases have been confirmed by my visa. My kids use my Apple Id to download APs and I am informed when this happens. Nothing strange happening on the financial site at all. Just frustrating as we have to keep updating the ID to use messenger, I cloud etc on all of the devices. I called Apple Support and the girl initally said she knew nothing about this but then spoke to someone else and they are aware of this ongoing problem and are working on it. Any suggestions? Are others having the same problems?

If the system didn't ship with Mountain Lion originally and you didn't purchase Mountain Lion yourself, then you will need to purchase. A purchase by the system's original owner cannot be transferred to you.
Unless you have another system on which you have purchased Mountain Lion, you will need to first install Mac OS X 10.6.8 on the iMac, for which you'll need either the original installation disks, if the iMac came with 10.6, or a retail copy of 10.6. Install 10.6 and upgrade to at least 10.6.6, and then you can buy Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store, presuming of course that the imac can support Mountain Lion. See:

I have a new (mid-2011 27" Imac with 2 Thunderbolt ports each driving one 27" Thunderbolt display. The 3 displays work perfectly in OSX Lion but in Bootcamp 4.0 with Windows 7 (64 bit) only 2 screens come up. everything is up to date. Anyonce who can help

I have a new (mid-2011 27" Imac with 2 Thunderbolt Ports each driving one 27" Thunderbolt display.
Graphic card is AMD Radeon HD 6970M with 2Gb of VRAM. All works 100% in Lion but
in Bootcamp 4.0 running windows 7 Professional (64 bit) Only 2 of the 3 screens work not all three.
Tried updates, calling Apple etc. But no luck. Windows doesn't recognize the 3rd screen while
checking on the driver in windows is tells me it's the latest and best available. ? In VMware
Windows 7 also works fine over three screens so windows can do it. But I need it natively to
work. (i.o.w. in Bootcamp). Does Anybody know how to solve this, or if Apple is working on a
solution for this ? It really hurts to have one of these expensive screens staring at you being dead.

Hello QuinnDev,
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you are trying to use your MacBook Pro with a Thunderbolt Display in closed clamshell mode (MacBook Pro closed), but sometimes the display doesn't stay on. I found an article that talks about closed clamshell mode. You would have to fulfill the following requirements to use your display this way:
Requirements for closed display mode:
Power adapter
External keyboard, mouse, or trackpad
External display
You can find all the steps and the full article here:
Mac notebooks: How to use your computer in closed clamshell (display closed) mode with an external display

I hope this helps!
All the best,

Using a macbook pro as a second display for an imac using a thunderbolt to thunderbolt cable

I know I can use TDM to use an imac as a second display for a MBP with a thunderbolt to thunderbolt cable. Is there any work around to use a MBP as a second display for an imac with a thunderbolt to thunderbolt cable?
15" MBP w/retina running maverick 10.9.4
21" imac running maverick 10.9.4

No; the MacBook Pro doesn't support video in. If desired, use a product such as ScreenRecycler over a network.

IMac: USB and Thunderbolt ports seems loose

I'm not sure if this is really a question other than wondering if other people experience it.
I have a 14.2 27" iMac. The thunderbolt port is used to connect to a second display, and the USB ports are primarily used for external drives.
In all cases, I find that even the slightest movement of the USB or Thundebolt cable will result in the device being momentarily physically disconnected. I have tried to reproduce this on my gaming PC with the USB drives and I can wiggle the cable all I want without the drive disconnecting.
Since all of the USB ports on the iMac do this, and none of the ports on the PC do, I can only assume there is some sort of design flaw or manufacturing defect.
Any thoughts?
-Doc

Yep, same here, my relatively new, very expensive, souped up 27 iMac keeps on dropping the drive connected to the Thunderbolt port whenever I unplug something from a neighbouring USB port.
And no, Apple I am not lugging a huge 27 inch iMac back to the store for you to fix something that is your fault, which you don't admit is happening to many iMacs and which you apparently don't know how to fix. And apparently in Australia we don't have site visits for Apple Care....
I am a weak older person who can't lift the thing (and who waited a very long time to be able to afford this machine) - but you see I never expected my iMac and Mavericks to be so darn dodgy - I trusted you Apple.. as I have for the last 30 years of using an Apple.
Mavericks probs were bad enough, but it was a software prob which eventually (hopefully I thought they'll fix) - it does make my heart bleed however to realise that Apple with its billions of cash in the bank can't afford to hire some decent coders to fix multiple probs with Mavericks in a timely fashion....
But now?????
- now I realise I actually have a computer with a faulty thunderbolt port....and that Apple does not seem to be acknowledging this fault....Apple had better find a solution that does not give me a hernia....
Thanks for your input folks in this forum.....sorry for sounding so annoyed - that's cos I am:-)
( and yes I am going to put this in feedback somewhere so the robot who reads can bin it more easily)

Hat mein Imac mitte 2010 thunderbolt ?

ICH VERSUCHE MEINEN IMAC MIT THUNDERBOLT ZUBETREIBEN, ABER DAS SYSTEM SAGT ES SEI KEIN THUNDERBOLT VERBAUT ?
ICH VERSTEHE ES NICHT, KANN ES SEIN DAS DER SLOT DAS IST ABER DAS WAS ES? UND KANN MAN ES NACHRÜSTEN?
DANKE

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
The Mid 2010 iMac hasn't got Thunderbolt. Instead, it has got Mini DisplayPort. They use the same connector but they are not the same: Thunderbolt transfers audio, video and data, and Mini DisplayPort transfers video and audio.
Die Mitte 2010 iMac hat nicht Thunderbolt. Stattdessen hat es Mini DisplayPort einsehen. Sie nutzen die gleichen Stecker, aber sie sind nicht das gleiche: Thunderbolt überträgt Audio, Video und Daten und Mini DisplayPort überträgt Video und Audio.
