Are Kinsgton KVR13S9S8/4 compatible with imac 21.5 mid 2010

Hi everybody,


I have bought 4 Kinsgton KVR13S9S8/4 1.5 V 4Gb to bring my Mid 2010 iMac to 16 GB, but it seems that my iMac doesn't like them?


Any idea why?


Thanks

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

RAM on Macs can be more particular than the specs on the timing suggest. Best to buy RAM that is


1. not ValueRAM.


2. has been tested with your season released model Mac, and says so on the manufacturer website. So for you it would have to say Mid 2010 iMac on the RAM manufacturer's website.


3. has a lifetime warranty.


Two vendors have consistently done it right, and that is http://www.macsales.com/ and http://www.crucial.com/

Both ship around the world.
