IMac :: Unable To Open IMac Memory Cover - The Screw Won't Turn.

Oct 25, 2009

I don't know what the deal is. I'm trying to install 2 sticks of 2GB into my 7,1 iMac, and the screw just won't turn. I'm using a standard Phillips head, and nothin' doin'. The screw is now starting to strip, so I guess I'm going to have to take this into the friggin' Apple Store just to have them open the thing.

IMac :: How Do You Turn Off The Screen

Aug 29, 2010

I know how to dim the screen, and I'm using Shades to help with that, but I would like it turned completely off.

For example, if I'm burning a DVD overnight, I want the screen to be completely shut off, instead of lighting up the room like it's the middle of the day.

IMac :: Won't Turn On - Psu Or Logicboard

Nov 28, 2010

I've done some searching and haven't come up with an exact answer to my questions. Hopefully you guys can help me out! My 2008 24" iMac won't turn on. No fans, no HDD, nothing. This happened after a power surge, so I'm assuming it's toast. I took it to the Apple Store and they told me that it is either the logic board or the power supply but couldn't tell me which. It would seem to me that since it isn't doing anything when it's turned on that it's the power supply. Does that seem like a logical answer? If so, I think I'll go on and order the psu from the ifixit store and do the work my self.

PowerPC :: G5 IMac Will Not Turn Off?

Dec 18, 2007

My G5 iMac developed problems after upgrading latest updates to Tiger, iTunes, QuickTime, ect.

I am now unable to access apps like system preferences, iPhoto, Safari and others. Also it will sleep but unable to shut down. I'm hopeful a new install of my OS 10.4 disk will correct things but fearful my photos, music and FireFox bookmarks may be lost.

My beloved G5 has been flawless till now.

IMac :: Can You Turn On Monitor Only With New 27

Oct 26, 2009

I am seriously considering the possibility of using the 27in iMac as an external monitor with my MBP when I am home and need the extra monitor space. That would also allow my family to use the iMac when I am away at work or out of town. Since my MBP has a Mini DisplayPort, it should be as easy as connecting the MDP from the laptop to the MDP on the back of the iMac and then connecting the USB for audio? However if the iMac is turned on, how can I use the monitor without the actual computer running at the same time?

IMac :: Won't Turn On - Seems Dead?

Aug 16, 2010

my iMac won't turn on - seems dead. It's a white one (out of warranty), and am taking it to a genius bar near here. I think it has to to with the internal power supply, could that be? Doesn't sound like a logic board problem, as it won't turn on. Also, will I have to pay for the genius bar?

OS X :: G4 IMac Weird Fan Sound - Won't Turn On

Mar 20, 2009

My G4 iMac has been making a weird fan sound (a flickering sound, as if there were a piece of paper in it or something). Last night I turned it off and the weird fan continued running. I tried to unplug my mac and plug it back in, but the fan just starts right back up. The computer won't start, I've tried holding the start button but nothing happens. I need my computer today to work.

Feb 18, 2010

Besides putting a piece of paper over the iSight, is there a way to manually disconnect it so that no one can remotely login from the outside and view it? I am assuming that even a firewall would not be enough. This news story made me think about it: [URL]

OS X :: IMac G5 17" ISight - Monitor Won't Turn On?

Jul 10, 2009

iMac G5 17" iSight
1.83GHz
2GB 667MHz SDRAM

My monitor has turned off and will not come back on. Clicking noises and a slow operating speed occurred a few days ago. I have tried this SMU Reset Process below:

from [URL]

1. Turn off the computer by choosing Shut Down from the Apple menu, or by holding the power button until the computer turns off.

2. Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.

3. Wait 10 seconds.

4. Plug in the power cord while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button on the back of the computer.

5. Let go of the power button.

6. Press the power button once more to start up your iMac.

Upon completing step 6, the computer turns on only to feature the fans spinning at maximum speed and still no monitor display.

Is this a Logic Board issue? The iMac was purchased for $1700 in 2006. Would repair costs be so high that just buying a new iMac would be the better way to go?

IMac :: 24" Won't Turn On After Power Failure

Aug 6, 2010

I left my iMac on overnight last night to finish downloading some stuff. I woke up and all our clocks are flashing, so we must've had a blackout. Anyway, I went to check the progress of my downloads, and the iMac was off. I pushed the power button and nothing happened. No fan noise, HDD noise, nothing. I've been trying for almost two hours now and nothing is working.
