IMac :: 27" Compatible With PS3?
Nov 9, 2009
I have not yet bought the new Imac. I am fairly new to macs having used a PC my entire life. But i look forward to the change and hope it's good. My major concern only now is that i was wondering if there's anyway to hook my PS3 to this new imac since the displays are phenomenal and it lacks a blu-ray player. The 21.5" has no DVI input while the 27" does, so i'm guessing i'll have to get the 27" if i want my PS3 to connect in anyway? If there is no perfect way to get 1080p then let me know and i will stick to the 21.5" since the PS3 connecting to the 27" was the only reason i was buying the larger model.

I bought an external blu ray writer and cannot make use of it as os x does not seem to support it and when I use makemkv files they are extremely choppy. I also have windows installed on a second partition, however the software included (cyberlink power dvd) will only play audio and no video.

They are going to make something from ground up. Guess what that means? Apple iOS and Mac OS will be combined into one OS. So, it will most likely require new hardware. Are all of mac buyers going to be screwed in a year from now on? I doubt it will be 100% compatible

I have an imac G3 "snow" running a special application. I also have a mac mini. Up until now I was using a Sony 20" LCD display with a KVM switch. The display worked very well with both computers. Unfortunately it started to make a loud noise and I think is getting ready to give out.I tried a Samsung 27" LED monitor which is very nice with the mac mini. However, although it works with the imac G3 the colors are way off and built-in adjustments are n
Does anyone know of an LED monitor that supports output from an old imac G3?
Info:iMac, Mac OS 9.2.x, Snow

I just bought a new iMAC 24" and was about to buy Photoshop Elements 6 from Amazon. Then I read some disturbing reviews about this latest version not working very well, if at all on Macs. Some recommended going with Elements 4, but finding a new version of "4" is impossible.

Now this fine Dome base unit iMac is running OS X 10.4.11. It only has USB 1? We live in the UK. Now we want to use a webcam and Skype (or anything) to talk to and see distant relatives. But a PC Webcam does not work, not even a flicker! So what model do we need and where do we get it from? Is it possible?

I got called out to a support job the other day and found the lady had an iMac G3 Bondi Blue running Mac OS 8.5. The problem is with her internal 56k modem. It will no longer connect to the Internet and is reporting the error message:
"The modem is not responding properly. Reset the modem, check it's connections, and check that the correct port and modem type are selected in the modem control panel."
Now I'm no expert with the old school iMac's but that seems to me like the modem is knackered and she needs a new one. I did recommend just opening it up and slotting in a replacement internal modem but the client would rather have an External.
So I was wondering if any one around here knew what kind of modem I could purchase for her that would definitely be compatible with such an old version of Mac OS?
I have had a google around for it, but I can't seem to find a Hardware Compatability List or a modem that claims it is compatible with Mac OS 8 so I'm kind of grasping at straws here hoping that someone might happen to be using such an old version and might be able to point me in the right direction.

I'm trying to upgrade my aging iMac to be as compatible as possible, due to Diablo 3 requiring a minimum OS 10.6.8 to operate. My current specs as below:iMac Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz. 20 Inch. 4GB Ram. 320GB HDD. Nvidia 9400M Graphics Card..Currently running 10.5.8. As previously i tried to upgrade to Lion but it says my computer is unable to process installation, I am not sure if it's because i did not upgrade from Snow Leopard. Am trying to use this current mac as long as possible because i think Apple should be introducing a new generation of iMacs soon this year.
Info:
iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

My father has an iMac G4 circa 2003, currently running 10.2.8. He hasn't used it for a long while. This OS can connect to the internet, but the browser is incapable of loading content. What can I do? I don't want to go through finding and investing in all the OS upgrades if the computer doesn't have the storage space or capability to run them, and/or I still won't be able to use an upgraded browser with it. He's quite elderly and out in the country, so bringing it in to a Genius bar is out of the question.

Guys, do you think the new iMacs/mac Minis/macbooks will be backwards compatible with 10.5 Leopard or only Snow Leopard compatible..... since they will undoubtedly ship with Snow Leopard 10.6 only?

I bought a VESA mount for my 27 inch iMac (core i7) after confirming with apple website that it is compatible with the new 27 inch.
But, unfortunately it DOES NOT fit!
Someone in apple support page have the same problem as me:
"I tried putting it on the new 27" iMac. The flange went on without any problem. The hole aligned with the pin, and all 8 screws were fastened easily. However, installation of the mount adapter plate was a different story... When it sits on top of the flange, the holes from the sides of the mount plate do not even align with the threaded holes of the flange. It was at least 2 mm off-centre. I had to remove the protective plastic strips at the edge of the mount adapter plate, only then the bolt can be threaded into the flange. Even so, the bolts were so tight that, on one side, I could only drive the bolt half-away in before I strip the hex pattern on top of the bolt."
Wonder anyone in this forum have the same problem? I'm going to call Apple Australia on monday morning!!!!
Wasted my 2 hr to try to figure it out!!!!

I have those sticks for my psp and the work great. PS3 sees them perfectly and the old pc I had, but for some reason my brand new imac doesn't see the memory stick I put in.
Am I putting it in the wrong way or do I need to buy something extra to get them to work on my mac?

My iMac is fairly old. It's one of the white ones that has the isight and mic. I don't remember the generation. For basic typing and internet needs it's still runs great! However since I updated to snow leopard I've found alot of my software isn't compatible, thus I want to revert to tiger. Atleast with Tiger my software works.

Just downloaded the latest NVIDIA drivers - supposed to be compatible with the GT 120. Run the installation, and it says there is no compatible hardware. dxdiag and Vista both detect the card as GT 120. Has anyone had this problem or gotten around it?

My desk configuration for my imac includes a keyboard tray. I am contemplating just not using it, however it really does put the keyboard in a more natural place for me to sit correctly. If I want to use the wired keyboard though, I will obviously need some type of usb extension. I have read these came with the old keyboards, but they don't come with the new ones. Does anyone know where I can find one that is compatible with the aluminum keyboard? Would the extenders that came with the old Mac keyboards work (in case i can find one on ebay or something)?

My MBA is giving me a startup blue screen now and it never gets out of it. Based on what I read, this seems to indicate that the hd is gone. I'm thinking about replacing it with a SSD HD.

I am wondering which SSD is the correct choice to go with. I can spend around 250USD for the SSD and I want it to be compatible with OSX. I read some forums about trim and garbage collection but I am not sure which models come with those features and which one of them are supported by OSX.
