Will the new 2012 27" iMac be Vesa mountable?

Will the new 2012 27" iMac be Vesa mountable? I cannot find this on any of the specs, I hope it is.

From what I've read online ... there is news that some companies are working on some sort of mount for the newer 2012 iMac's that would involve using the existing iMac stand in to the stand assembly (because the new 2012 iMac stands are not removable).
Zdnet says:
"... however, third-party companies such as ErgoMart and iMacMount.com offer adapter kits for these iMac 2012 smaller models. iMacMount offers a $79.95 kit for 17-, 20- and 21.5-inch models. The company's site says its current iMac Mount VESA Mount Adapter Kit supports the now problematic Late 2012 21.5-inch iMac
I'm sure Vesa will take this same "mount adapter" approach eventually, for the newer 2012 iMac's.

    Will the new 2012 iMac support 2 hard drives (HDD and SSD) like the 2011 iMac?

    Well, I'm not sure how anything can fit into a 5 mm depth, so I can see why they've removed the CD drive -  there probably wouldn't be enough room for the laser, LOL. Can't imagine speakers, hard drive (of any flavor), logic board and so on and so forth. Fortunately, my iMac has Applecare through early 2015 so I'm set for a while; I may check out a Mini at that point - saw that it is configurable with a fusion drive, which would make it interesting for me.

  • Will the new 2012 MacBook pro allow me to play my Games console via the hdmi slot?

    Hi, I am looking to purchase the new MacBook pro 15 inch retina display for work. I was wondering whether I would be able to play my games console 360/ps3 via the hdmi slot as this would save me prove buying a tv for my flat.

    I don't think you can. This is because the there is no "source" on any Mac, this means that you can only use the computer. So what I'm saying is that the MBP with retina display is only "out" so you can only use it to show what's on the monitor on your tv.

  • Will the new 2012 Mac pros boot on Snow Leopard (10.6.8, installed on a HD in a 2008 Mac pro and then moved to the 2012 model).

    I keep getting fuzzy answers on this (firmware, future updates, etc.). I can make a 2 partition HD on my 2008 (3.1), with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on 1, and Lion on the other, and then put this HD in the 2012 3.06ghz. Will it work? (It does on the 2010 2.93ghz).

    Tony https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4051765?tstart=0 Never got back and until someone who received a "new" Mac Pro 5,1 (5,2? just for laughs?) to know.
    Apple ties OS build and fiirmware and Mac ID.
    It should after all nothing really changed. In this case it has the same latest firmware that shipped iwth some 2010s
    We had discussions about this when Mac Pro 2010 started shipping with Lion last... summer/fall.
    A true Lion only system ships not only without DVDs, and with Lion, but can do a network install (it grabs a small boot loader) to pull down the installer and has enough code in the firmware. Same with AHT.
    A. It (10.6.8) works and you are fine
    B. It works only with Lion.
    What is the real question? do you need to run 10.6.8?
    There is a 1/20 chance too that it has a later build of 10.7.4, right?

  • Will the new 21.5" iMac support 16GB of RAM?

    I just bought the 21.5" mid 2011 iMac (the $1,499) model. I also just purchased 16GB RAM from OWC to replace the 4GB that came with it. I thought I had read that the 21.5" model can support up to 16GB, but then read this on the iMac spec page: "Configurable to 8GB (all models) or 16GB (select models), only at the Apple Online Store." Can I install 16GB on my machine (4GB per slot, times 4)? I'm worried it won't work because I've seen reference of 8 and 16 on Apple's site as the max.

    The spec page says this, so my SWAG is it'll support 16 GB:
    Memory
    More memory (RAM) increases performance and enables your computer to perform faster and better. Choose additional 1333MHz DDR3 memory for your iMac.
    The more memory your computer has, the more programs you can run simultaneously, and the better performance you get from your computer.
    Select the standard memory configuration to support day-to-day tasks such as email, word processing, and web browsing as well as more complex tasks such as editing photos, creating illustrations, and building presentations.
    Upgrade your memory to enjoy greater performance for more intensive computing tasks, such as video editing and DVD authoring
    Your iMac uses one of the fastest memory technologies available today — 1333MHz, Double Data Rate (DDR3), synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) — ensuring that the processor is constantly fed with data without wasting clock cycles.
    4GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x2GB
    8GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB [Add $200.00]
    16GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 4x4GB [Add $600.00]

    Will the new (thin) iMacs have a VESA mount kit?
    I have my current iMac mounted on the wall, on an arm. It's the perfect setup for me. Will I be able to upgrade and keep this setup?

  • Will the new time capsule back up Windows on an iMac running Parallels Desktop?

    Will the new time capsule back up Windows on an iMac running Parallels Desktop?

    Windows home version MSBackup, cannot backup to network drives.
    That was a little bonus from Bill for those who didn't fork out for Pro or Ultimate.
    Like people with home versions would never need to backup to network drives.. oh no.. never!!
    You need to mount the hard disk in windows for it to work.
    It will help a lot if you load the airport utility for windows into your windows OS.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1547
    Open windows explorer and type the network address of the TC.
    \\TCname.local (where TCname is the correct network name of the TC).
    The TC should have all names that are windows compatible.. ie
    Fred Blog's Airport Time Capsule is just wrong. It is too long, it has spaces and it has apostrophe which is illegal.
    A good name for the TC is TC
    The default hard disk share name of data is fine. It should not be Time Capsule or anything again that is over long .. has spaces or is otherwise incompatible with windows.
    A good name for the TC wifi is TCwifi
    Then you can mount it \\TC
    typing that directly into the address bar of windows explorer.
    There are still issues with windows naturally and running in parallels I have no idea what other issues might come up.
    Tell me if you have issues.. but you will need most likely to check the network.
    Open a command window and ping the TC by name and by IP address. If IP address works just mount by IP.
    \\10.0.1.1 for example .. and that is the default TC IP address when in router mode.
    If you still cannot access the TC my recommendation is to use a USB drive and use that.. it is 10x easier and more reliable than mixing Mac and windows backups on the TC.

  • Has anyone seen the new 2012 iMac in any Apple stores yet?

    I was told by an Apple store employee that they would have the new 2012 iMac's in the Apple stores with-in a few days of their launch announcement, back in late October .... here it is late November and the new 2012 iMac's are not yet in the Apple store, for display purposes, here in Rochester, NY.
    Last night I was again at the Apple store here in Rochester, and asking about the new iMacs. one of the employees now says they "may be out in December" some time.
    I'm very disapponted as a loyal Mac user for over twenty years (and even as an Apple investor). that Apple is announcing the launch of these new products, and then taking months for these products to show up for sale.
    I'm starting to think that it won't be until late January that I can actually be able to purchase one of the new 2012 21.5" iMacs ..... i've been waiting years to get a new "antiglare" iMac.
    Has any one actually seen one of the new 21.5" 2012 iMacs in one of their local Apple stores, on display yet?

    UPDATE: Dec. 6, 2012
    I was just over at the local Apple store loking at the new 21.5" iMac, and to be honest, I wasn't all that impressed. I have been waiting for over a year to upgrade my Mac, and had high expectations for the new 2012 iMac's .... but seeing and playing with one in the store .... the new one's may not be for me.
    Most of all I wanted to believe all the talk about 75% less reflections in the new iMac display, but while in the Apple store, I saw no real difference over the previous model ... and if so, it was more like 25% less reflections. Nothing that dramatic, certainly not like the "anti-glare" screens available in the 2011 MacBook Pro. Basically, my understanding is that the new 2012 iMac's use the SAME DISPLAY as the previous iMac models did. It's the LG "LM215WF3" display, same as those in the 2009-2011 iMac displays. The only difference in the 2012 display, is that they took out the small space between the outer glass and the actual screen surface to get the overall display thinner. It still has the basic "glossy glass" cover screen.
    The other disappointment was the extremely poor audio sound from the new iMac's built-in speakers. They just sounded so "tinny", even when playing with multiple iTunes "equalizer" settings. Again, disappointing.
    Looks like I'll have to research the possibility of buying a Mini-Mac and an older Apple 20" cinema display off eBay. Or pick up a late model 2011 iMac and get the Rad-Tech "anti-glare" screen film for the display (Ugh!).
    Being a graphic designer and art director in profession, I just can't understand why Apple has abandoned the "professional" market for these glossy displays in it's iMac line .... or at least STILL hasn't given us an option for a true "anti-glare" display.
    Is it just me, or are my observations on the new 2012 iMac being seen the same by others as well?

  • Will the new iMac's be able to play encrypted HD content or not?...

    My first post!
    I, like most people, am very impressed by the new iMac's, especially the 24" model. I would buy one today if it wasn't for one unanswered question: will the new iMac's be able to play encrypted HD content or not?...
    See the following text:
    "Interestingly though, neither Apple nor Nvidia would comment on whether either of the graphics chip options for the 24-inch iMac come with HDCP support enabled, which would make the iMac a viable link in HD video's copy-protected chain. HDCP support is an option for those GPUs, which makes the fact that we couldn't get an answer intriguing."
    This worries me. The screen resolution is sufficient for 1080p, but it seems that I may not be able to play encrypted HD content... An upgrade to the GPU at a later date seems difficult (impossible?) too...
    Any comments?

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    This is new to me. Where have you heard HD Encrypted content will be provided from? You can buy an Elgato EyeTV Hybrid that will allow you to watch HDTV content (i.e. Freeview HD) when it comes out properly. I thought HDCP was aimed at preventing copying of content from a HD-DVD or Blu-ray disk (I may be mistaken) - and at £550 for the cheapest desktop size drives we are still a long way off seeing one of those drives in Apple's consumer line-up.
    The iMac 24" is unique in that it does have a removable graphics card. Whether any replacements ever hit the market is yet to be seen.

  • SP_ADDMESSAGE will the new message be synchronized in all master databases?

    Hello everybody
    A customer asked me "What happens in a SQL Server 2012 Always On Installation when a new sysmessage is created (sp_addmessage)". Will the new sysmessage be automatically synchronized in all master databases?
    And what happens with changes of SQL Server Agent Jobs? The definition is stored in the msdb databases. Are they synchronized automatically or are these tasks that should be made manually?
    Searched on MSDN, in this Forums but couldnt find an answer.
    Best regards
    Paolo

    Hi Paolo,
    Since the SQL 2012 Always On is configured on the user databases the sysmessage would not get synchronized on the nodes participating in the always on configuration. Also the jobs are not synchronized between the participating nodes of always on configuration.
