Hardware :: Replacing 2TB Time Capsule - Power Supply

Nov 2, 2009

I need some advise on replacing my "Just Delivered" 2TB Time Capsule. My previous 1TB TC died so I ordered the 2TB TC. After reading about the power supply issues, I could see my new 2TB TC dying as well after about 18 months since PS design remains the same. With that said, what would be the best way to spend $500 for router + remote storage solution. I was thinking, new version of Airport Extreme Base Station + G-Technology 1TB G-DRIVE High-Performance Hard Drive.

Hardware :: Replacing Apple Time Capsule Power Cord

May 11, 2010

I'm looking to find a new power cord for my TC. On Amazon they have this: [URL] but the fact that it's a black cable would really bother me. It looks like a pretty basic 2-pin power adapter, but I'm not really sure where I could fine a while one at online.

PowerPC :: Replacing Power Supply Board On IBook 12" G4

Dec 16, 2008

I've been lurking for the last 12 months but haven't posted until now. Does anyone know if it's possible to purchase a new PCB and lead for the power input. My youngest kid pulled my mac off the sofa and it landed right on the input which knackered up the lead forcing me to buy a cheap chinese job. I've taken the cover off and pulled out the small PCB to inspect it and it did have a cracked solder. I fixed that but the connection is still very fussy, I can't move the mac much or it will switch off (dead battery too). While I'd love to go out and buy a brand new macbook I simply can't afford it right now so patching up this one is my only choice. It needs ram, new battery, proper lead and power supply PCB. All easy to find except the PCB.

PowerPC :: Mounting The Power-supply From The 2004 On The 2005 Is The Power-supply Compatible Or Not

Dec 29, 2010

I have a PowerMac G5 with the first motherboard that is out of order, and another PowerMac

G5 Late 2005

with 2x2.0GHZ

Mounting the powersupply from the 2004 on the 2005 is the powersuply compatible or not?

EDIT: I looked on Mactracker and compared the two:
Max Watts in the first is 604W and 450W on the late 2005.
I want to put a powersuply from a G5 2004 (604W ) on a G5 2005 that had a 450W powersuply is this possible ?

Hardware :: Test A G5 Power Supply Like An ATX Power Supply?

Feb 12, 2008

My 2*1.8Mhz G5 tower (second version) shutdown two day ago and refuses to turn up again. I have absolutely no sign of life, not even the external white led or the internal red one. I'm trying to figure out whether it is the power supply of the start button which cause the problem.

Is it possible to test a G5 power supply like an ATX power supply, by connecting two pins which would make the fans start ?

Power Mac G5 :: G5 Power Supply Beeping/Churping Corrected With Leopard

Nov 8, 2007

I made this a new topic because I think it is important enough to do so. Probably most of those that originally complained about this have moved on to the new MacPro but I am sure there are still enough G5 owners out there that still have concerns about this topic.

A clean install of Leopard eliminates the infamous power supply beeping

Its amazing, my G5 is like a new machine; no more of the annoying power supply beep; although, I learned to live with it after a while and didn't even notice it. However, the silence is now very noticeable.

Hardware :: Time Capsule Just Shut Down And Refuses To Power On

Jun 28, 2008

So I came home today and found my TC sitting silently coolly in the dark. I tried another plug on my UPS and reseated the power cable. No luck it won't power on. When I have it replaced at the apple store am I SOL with the backed up data? Will they swap the drive? I guess since its just a backup it doesn't matter so much, but backing up two macs from scratch will sure take ages. Anyone else had a working TC just shut down and refuse to power on?

Power Mac :: G5 2.3ghz Power Supply Removal?

Mac Pro :: How Far Can You Tap The Mac Pro's Power Supply

Mar 16, 2009

It has no doubt come to the attention of many that the Radeon 4870 requires two PCIe six-pin power taps off of the motherboard, which is exactly how many  allots. Say we wanted to use a GeForce 8800GT and a 4870 at the same time, which would require a total of three PCIe six-pin power taps. What I've read on the forums here indicates that powering them would be possible, but what ways would work?

As far as I can see, I've got two options:

1) Split one of the 6-pin power taps with a Y-splitter, and use the resulting two taps for one card and the other tap for the other card.

2) Use one of the ODD 4-pin molex power taps, convert it to a 6-pin tap, run it down to the card. But I'm running two optical drives; would it be possible to split one of those power taps into two, then run one out converted to a 6-pin and into the card?

I don't know nearly enough about the motherboards and power sources to know which way would work - if any - and if there is any risk involved. I'm running an early '08 mac pro, but I'm curious if this would work in other models as well. Anybody know enough about the hardware to say?

May 8, 2009

i'm in desperate need of an APC backup power supply for my mac pro and acd. the old backup i've got (APC ES350) is not sufficient to power the mac pro and acd. i purchased the ES350 for my powerbook almost 7 years ago.

MacBook Pro :: My MBP Hurt It's Power Supply?

Aug 30, 2010

At the beginning of the year my power supply died and Apple changed both of them. 4 months later, happened again. Now, 4 months later, it is happening again!

The power supply is plugged into a power strip with other electronics as well. The power supply keeps the laptop alive but won't charge it. If you unplug it the battery drains like normal. No light on charger, other chargers charge the laptop.

Do I have dirty power at my house that keeps blowing it? Nothing else has been effected.

Can a computer effect the charger? Please help! Still have 6 mos of applecare, but am tired of this. Would like to find solution.

IMac :: Won't Start- Power Supply?

Nov 26, 2010

Tried to wake my 24" white iMac from sleep yesterday and discovered that it was off. Pressed the button in back but no go. Unplugged and replugged, pressed the button and it fired up fine. Surfed a bit, then put it back to sleep.

Came back about 3 hours later and it was off again. Unplugged and replugged, pressed the button and nothing. Tried it a couple more times just to check, and no go.

Any ideas? I've had this computer for a little over two years. Bought it used and bought Applecare which expired on.... Nov. 16th. Beautiful timing or what.

Mac Pro :: Power Supply Fan Dead Or Defective

May 17, 2008

6 of 8 processors at 100% for 24 hrs/day for nearly a week), my MacPro's "Power Supply 2" temperature suddenly rose to ~207 ?F (~95 ?C).I got a large external fan going through the desktop to bring the temperature down. I also tried to install smcFanControl to see if I could bump up the internal fan speed. Well, I could bump up THREE of the fans (I/O, CPU/Memory, and Exhaust), but it says that the PS fan is steady at just under 600 rpm, despite me cranking it up in the software to anything else (including the max, 2800, and anything less).

Mac Pro :: Power Supply Compatibility With Another System?

Feb 16, 2009

Will a 600W power supply from a June 2004 dual 1.8 G5 be compatible with a dual 2.3 early 2005 system (450W)? Are the connectors any different? Will a bigger power supply overload the system? I know that the 600W June 04 power supply can be used with a dual 2.7 early 05 machine (600W) despite a rubber grommet that the 04 doesn't have.

With this setup i should be able to feed the card with power but is this dangerous or will the system be unstable? what will happen

Mac Pro :: How Big Is The Power Supply In The 2006 Model

Jun 11, 2009

My UPS is flaking out, and it's a really old one I got from work that was a 'server' class UPS.

I don't want to drop $999 on the thing, as that's what an equivalent of what I was using go for. However I want my battery to last more than oh, 30s so I hope to size it right.

Any experience from anyone running a UPS on one of these things? The UPS sites aren't much help and if the tech specs are to believed if it draws 12A at 120W that's a 1440W requirement for the power supply, and that seems a tiny bit high to me, but I might be wrong.

I'm running the 2.66GHz dual core, the ATI1900XL, and 4 500GB drives in it.

Mac Pro :: MP Power Supply Replacement Procedure?

Jul 23, 2010

I need to replace the power supply in my Mac Pro (2008) but I'm stuck at getting the small cover off. I've removed the metal plate that was under the optical drives (POV when looking through the side).

But it seems there's a small cover for the power supply that's similar to the big processor cover for the liquid cooled G5 towers. I can't figure out how to remove that.

Does anyone have a link to a manual or take-apart guide for the Mac Pro?
