Thanks DeltaMac, appreciate your help! I'll run through the disk utility scenario and see how that pans out, then progress to the installation of a new internal drive if needed. Cheers, Cam.

Sorry, I just realized this may have been more appropriately posted in the Hardware/Peripheral section.

Obviously I'm not too well versed in all things Mac. However, I am addicted to them and have received great help and advise from everyone here. So thanks again! Now my question: I bought a used iMac, (2008 model), that was running Leopard 10.5, (came with original disks too). I got it...

So I guess fire-wire would be the easiest and fastest. Any special tip or tricks to it? When I connect the two, will they just show up as "networked" in Finder? Thanks again, Cam.

I have an iMac that I've used primarily for the last few years and I just got a used iBook G4 so I could take my work on the road. However, I would at least like to get my iTunes and iPhoto libraries on it. What is the best way to do that? Thanks, Cam.

I am able to use OS X, but unable to use Boot Camp/Windows. So do I just start OS X in single user mode then follow the fsck –fy Apple support article? I already tried to repair it using Disk Utility on my OS X disk, however, it verified the disk and there was nothing to repair, (I ran...

I have the OS X disk that came with the computer, (Leopard), and I haven't upgraded to Snow Leopard, so I should be okay then. Thanks again, CJ.

I'm not sure how to back up because I can't access the computer/desktop. Although, prior to it crashing, I did have Time Machine running and I'm pretty sure I have a very recent back-up on that. Will that suffice? Should I still try a re-install of the OS? It just seems weird that boot...

Satcomer, Thanks again for your help, unfortunately I wasn't able to resolve my problem with the article listed. I definitely had the symptoms described in the article and followed the steps, however, when I booted in Safe Mode, it stayed on the gray screen with the prohibitory sign, and a...

Hello all, First off, sorry if this has been addressed in another thread, please feel free to link me to it! The problem I'm having is that when I start-up my iMac, (2007 17" running Leopard OS X), it stays on the gray, boot screen for a long time, then shows the icon of circle with line...
