Hello, curious as to how I would be able to connect an HDMI cable to an old iMac (2010...21.5") which has no USB-C ports, only USB 4 ports? What kind of adapters would I need, for such a relic?

Your 2010 iMac has a Minidisplay port. You would connect the Minidisplay port adapter to the iMac, plug the HDMI cable into the adapter and the other end of the HDMI cable into your TV or external display. You do not output video through a USB port.

thank you...appreciate it.
so, to get this straight, the mini-display port would hook up to my USB ports on iMac, than I can proceed to hook my HDMI cable into same mini-display port? Sorry for any ignorance/confusion.
thanks again
You will need a Mini display port to HDMI adapter, you can find them on Amazon. Please get a good quality one, that does matter.
*connecting lol

thanks again
once again, thank you!!
I appreciate you getting back to me...true story.
Your welcome.
