Sort of, but not easily and with some serious drawbacks. You can launch a remote desktop from you old imac and connect to your mac mini which would give you the ability to manipulate the mac mini from your old imac screen, but remote desktop does not have the same performance as the native desktop. There was a feature apple had called "Target Display Mode" which would have done, however they discontinued that feature. Finally for the truly adventurous, you can crack open the imac and solder on the hardware components you need to make thats work
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.the iMac will have to have a HDMI port to use as a monitor.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I am using a 2007 iMac, it is not obsolete yet, have been able to update and upgrade to use in 2024 but dont think it will take another update. Since it has been running almost continuously for the last 12 yrs, I think the led's that light the screen might be starting to weaken. Doesn't answer the question per say but telling you a 2015 Imac was obsolete was a incorrect.
