Hardware :: Unable To Cope EMac?

Jan 2, 2010

I have an eMac 1GHz MacOs 10.5.8-768 MB SDRAM.Very slow on NEWER routers when on the internet. Safari takes forever to load a page. eBay takes up to 40 secs to load. Done all the clean-ups and resets possible to Safari.

Operates at an acceptable (FAST) speed with a 6 year old router, but is prone to disconnections on a regular basis so I have stopped using this. I also have a Intel iMac which operates at normal speed on new router (eBay takes 8 secs to load!).I draw a blank with this problem even support from ISP.

OS X :: Installing Mac OS 10.4.1 On EMac?

Feb 8, 2009

I have an eMac that I want to install OS 10.4.1 on. The OS is on a DVD and I think the eMac only has a CD player on it. Can I download the installer to a flash drive and then install it on my eMac? Also, will I need to leave anything out of the installation since it will probably have an install to operate a DVD player, which the computer does not have?

OS X :: What Is The Best IPhoto For EMac 10.4.11

Nov 14, 2009

I currently have an eMac version 10.4.11 Tiger. I have iPhoto 2 and would like to upgrade to a better version: iPhoto 6 that comes with iLife '07 or iPhoto 7 that comes with iLife '08. What do you recommend?

I currently have 5,480 photos in one library. This is what I hope to accomplish with the upgrade to a better iPhoto:

1) option to include comments (metadata) alongside the photos in the message text when e-mailing photos to somebody?
2) let you print a contact sheet and include the photo comments underneath each photo?
3) burn photos to disc from within iPhoto, that will preserve the comments along with the photos? Later, you can insert the disc and it will show up in iPhoto with the photos and comments intact?
4) backup to iBook with comments/metadata included?

Im purchasing an eMac in a couple days, but am a little confused about performance. Its a 1 GHZ PowerPC G4 with 256MB of Ram but my last pc blew up (literaly) However the 1GB of RAM that was in still works and will fit in it.

How So? is it true? I really want the Ability to use Time Machine. (Right now i'm just using Genie Timeline for my Windows 7 PC)

EMac :: Upgrade Os X 10.3 To 10.4?

Feb 1, 2012

I changed from at&t to comcast and I have had so many problems with emailing.  I finally got comcast to get me to atleast be able to read my email but I can't reply to any emails.  My operation system is a Mac OS X 10.3.  My apple system correlates to M8951LL/A specs.  I think that comcast only supports OS X 10.4 and higher, mine is a 10.3.  Does anyone know if I can upgrade to a 10.4 with a computer this old?   

I tried to download Lion and Tiger but both of those require 10.4 minimum.  Bottom line does anyone know first if it is possible to upgrade to a 10.4 with my emac and if so how? 

Info:
emac 900 1 ghz, Mac OS X (10.3.x), M8951LL/A apple system

PowerPC :: Mixing RAM In USB 2.0 EMac

Sep 29, 2010

I just got a USB 2.0 emac for nothing that was going to the recycler. The door specs are: 1.25 ghz/256/40GB/Combo "About this mac" shows that it has 512mb RAM installed in one slot, and it is running 10.4.11 Anyways, it seems to be working great so far. I was able to get one stick of 256mb supported RAM from the only other 1.25 ghz machine in the lot - the rest were 700 - 800mhz emacs. Is it OK to mix the 256 with the 512? I've read many places that it is fine, but will it actually boost the speed of apps and things, or should I just leave it as is? I read somewhere that it might slow down the speed between the two RAM capacities. I don't want to spend any money to buy more RAM.

PowerPC :: Need DVD Burner For EMac

Jul 10, 2007

I have an EMac g4-255mb(just got 2 (256mb chips) never put in yet)-60gig running 10.4 (just got it) and now just got iLife 06) and then I have an 80gig external hard drive. So its like 140gig of room. But I only have a cd burner and dvd drive. Would it be cheaper to install an new internal drive? Or pay more for the external(cause there is no hard installation). What drives would work? And I have a $200 dollar gift card to bestbuy or futureshop.

PowerPC :: Looking For RAM For EMac 1.42GHz?

Nov 26, 2007

I have just got an excellent condition eMac 1.42GHz with the Radeon 9600 Card every transition is so smooth! Smoother than my MacBook!

Everything is standard, but it has an Airport Card in it as well which is cool

However, standard also means only 256MB of DDR3200 Memory.

Tiger is installed and everything updated.

Now I am planning to move this thing to Leopard alongside my MacBook. How much RAM shall I get for it? 512MB or 1GB? (bringing it to 768/1.25 respectively) Also what do I need to look out for brand-wise or type wise?

PowerPC :: EMac - How To Format Hdd

I am wondering because of the click sound if it may actually be the hard-drive causing the pausing issues (as processor/loading noise on macs is generally silent). I have done all of the disk utility fixes etc. with no positive results; disk utility can not find any problems with the HD.

PowerPC :: Using IMac/eMac?

May 31, 2008

my grandfather's dell laptop is horribly slow. I want to buy him a new computer thats runs faster for his emails/videos. I was looking at the old imacs/emacs on ebay (the 2000-2005) versions.

These comps fit in his budget of approx 100$. I was planning to buy an imac/emac with the following specs

500mhz (or faster) Processor (or 600/700mhz)
256mb (or more) Ram (512mb)
20gb Hard drive (adding external memory)
with the newer os x operating system.

My question will these computers fit his needs? He writes emails, he writes a ton of word documents, and he views videos off youtube and off a media player.

My question is that will these spec'd computers be able to run his needs efficiently?

Are there programs that are similar to the windows (which he is used to)?

Can you run microsoft office on these computers?

If not what would be the recommended specs I should look for?

PowerPC :: EMac Freezing Under 10.4 And 10.3?

Dec 25, 2008

My 5yo eMac (1GHz G4 with 1GB of RAM) freezes intermittently. Sometimes the mouse & keyboard lock up, sometimes a semi-opaque grey 'curtain' covers the screen with a message window in the middle telling me to restart.

Sometimes it restarts okay, sometimes it freezes on the Apple/cog-wheel screen, sometimes the grey curtain comes down again, sometimes the desktop loads okay but then lines of code scroll down the left side of the screen and it locks up again. The RAM is third-party stuff but it's been working fine for over 12 months. The freezing occurs under 10.4 and 10.3.

PowerPC :: How To Get PS3 Eye To Work With EMac With 10.5.6

Mar 28, 2009

Trying to get the ps3 eye to work with my emac. OS X 10.5.6. I have downloaded the latest macam and installed it, dragged the component over to the folder, and copied the component into the library/quicktime folder. When I open macam it recognizes that I have the ps3 eye hooked up, but the screen is black. Skype and yahoo also recognize the camera, but the cam monitor screen is black. I really want this to work, and have seen many posts from people with the emac/eye/macam combo and a lot of people have said it works.
