Using this with a current 2014 iMac on mavericks 10.9.3. Do I need to buy ANY cables for the iMac or the HDTV? Does it give audio/video over HDMI?

You don't need to buy any cables for the Mac, the transmitter plugs into any of the USB ports.For the TV you need an HDMI cable to link it to the receiver.Yes it transmits audio and video over HDMI

The monitor comes with one displayport to displayport cable and one hdmi cable. NOTE - I am trying to use this with a mac pro late 2013 and the drivers are not working well. I can confirm it woks with my late 2012 MacBook Pro via mini-displayport to displayport cable (1.2 compliant)

You can hook up a computer via a VGA Output the DB15F (VGA cable) or DVI Output DVI/RGB composite adapter. The unit I have has no USB or HDMI port, but their might be an adapter that could work for the Apple products.

Yes you do need some kind of audio interface that has 1/4 inch or RCA outputs. Then the device should have either FireWire or USB...you may need a FireWire to thunderbolt cable because the new Mac may not have FireWire. Hope this helps

I'd like to hook up my MacBook Pro to my Sony Bravia HDTV (720p), to watch video dowloads on the big screen. Will this cable carry the audio, or do I need a separate stereo audio cable from the Mac to the TV?Thanks.

Yes, as long as you have a mini dvi port (macbook 4,1 should have) You will also need the hdmi cable of course, and remember that this port does not transmit audio, so you will need a solution for audio as well (audio will still come from either macbook speakers, or from the headphone port)

Problem I had with this is I was going from my DVI port on the Mac to HDMI using an adapter cable, but the DVI port doesn't carry audio, only video. My work around was then wiring an audio cable from the headphone jack of the computer to my surround system. (In my case I used a 3.5mm to RCA cable). Gets messy with extra wires but it does the trick for now.

Dear Julie, Thank you for your question regarding our Mini HDMI to HDMI cable. The cable is not compatible with your iMac because the iMac has a mini DisplayPort connector. We would recommend our mini DisplayPort to HDMI bundle which will work with your iMac and HDTV. Here is the link to that product: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008VYQLA0 Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions. Thanks, BlueRigger LLC service@bluerigger.com

I don't know if this answers the question but it basically its a HDMI to thunderbolt cable. You plug the thunderbolt to your mac and the HDMI should be connected to your television.

I don't use the HDMI output on my set up because I have it patched through an older Pioneer A/V receiver. I looked at the owners manual with regard to hook ups and my interpretation of what I see and read is the HDMI will patch the audio and video. I know the HDMI on my Sony flat screen which is patched into my Apple TV includes the audio. I hope this helps.

Mine came with a VGA cable. If your MAC has VGA connector, it will hook up to it directly.

Hello Phil,It DOES NOT come with the necessary cords, however, IT WORKS with a MICRO HDMI that you can PURCHASE for a reasonable price. If you own a MACBOOK RETINA with a HDMI port, it will WORK perfectly, I recommed however using VLC player to reproduce the video files to output both video and audio, since mirroring Browsers such as CHROME or SAFARI sometimes requires an extra way of output for the sound.If your mac DOES not have an HDMI port, you can buy and thunderbolt - HDMI adapter.REMEMBER: YOU WILL have to buy a MICRO-HDMI Cable for this Device, and a tripod (a small one) is also recommended.I hope this helped, best of luck.

Yes, I use it with my MacBook Pro. And, yes, you do need a connector cable. I can't remember what I got, but it was about $25--maybe VGA to Mac? You better research that one--don't take my word on what kind it is, but only that you DO need a cable to make it compatible.

I've used this with the 13" 2013 Macbook Air with OS X 10.9 Mavericks with no problems. Now I'm on the public beta 2 of OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) also with no problems. My MBA is connected via thunderbolt to a 24" 1080p monitor AND this adapter (USB3 > Etekcity adapter > HDMI attachment > TV). It is obviously quite a bit delayed response time but I only use it for video playback (which works fine). The only difference between the 2013 and 2014 models of macbook airs are the minor processor speed bump; the processors are otherwise the same.

It depends on the computer, I am a PC guy and don't know a lot about Macs. I would check manual and see if it supports audio inline. If so, no extra cables will be necessary!

Yes, I have ours fed into two Sharp 70" led panels and the HDMI audio feed works through both panels with no issues at all. The room has its own audio so we don't run the sound on the panels, but the option is there and works. Did you get all the way into the sound settings on your mini? I'm not a Mac whiz, so I don't know exactly which steps you take, but there was more than one until we saw the HDMI choice. Actually the Mac is a dual boot to win7pro and it works on that operating system too. I can't stress how happy I was when I got my hands on the accell adapters, passive adapters just plain screwed me around in circles!
