Hi eoshanelle,


First, the 2013 iMac must be running macOS High Sierra or earlier. The 2015 MacBook Pro must be running macOS Catalina or earlier. If these are true, use this: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MD862LL/A/apple-thunderbolt-cable-05-m?afid=p238%7CsoL9HJOzT-dc_mtid_1870765e38482_pcrid_496840630953_pgrid_123076857331_&cid=aos-us-kwgo-pla-btb--slid---product-MD862LL/A. If those requirements are not true, IT CANNOT be done.


Cheers,


Jack
