How to connect my two imacs with my macbook pro 14 m1

Hi,


See the images please.



I need connect my two iMacs Mid 2011 to my Macbook pro 14 M1.


  • These iMacs: One with Mid 2011 High Sierra and other Mid 2011 with El Capitan;
  • Base with Macbook Pro 14 M1 2021;
  • I have a HUB - Hagibis Dual Display Adapter;



  • I test with two cables Minidisplay to HDMI but no work, these iMacs need Thunderbolt 2 cable? What is this cable, have a sample?


Many thanks...

MacBook Pro

Unfortunately, that setup is not supported by Apple. The iMacs cannot be used as a monitor for any of the newest Macs and Target Display mode is no longer a feature of macOS, having been deprecated several years ago.


Please see: Use your iMac as a display with target display mode - Apple Support


Per the link above:

• Your target iMac (monitor) must be using macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 or earlier. 

• In all cases the source Mac that you're connecting FROM must have been introduced in 2019 or earlier and have macOS 10.15 Catalina or earlier installed.


However, you might consider a third-party solution, for example: Luna Display or Duet Display.
