I would like to know if I can pair the Apple Wireless Keyboard which came with my iMac to BOTH my iMac and my iPad WITHOUT having to redo the pairing. Is this possible, or is the keyboard only pairable with 1 device at a time and pairing it to a new device wipes out the key exchange from the...

Hello, I have a 2.4 GHz iMac Intel 24". During the last few months (3-4) the spinning frequency of the fans increased. I have been looking up the processes in the Activity Monitor but couldn't find apps that were asking too much of the processors. A few days ago all of a sudden the iMac...

i am looking at an imac core 2 duo 1.83Ghz running 10.4.7. Half the screen stays white while the other half works. Are these bad pixels or a bad inverter board or something else? See the picture. Also, If I need to replace the screen or inverter board, is that something a moderately accomplished...

Hello, new here - hope someone can help. The DVD burner on my Imac broke; it would not eject discs, this was a hardware not a software or control problem. I have now installed a new drive that plays DVDs no problem but when I try to burn a disc from Itunes the programme crashes - i.e. just...

Hi, I have an iMac 27" late 2009 that has a damaged display connector, the part that is soldered to the logic board and that the cable from the display panel connects to. It works fine when connected to an external monitor. Replacing the connector with another part isn't a problem, but...

Does anyone have an idea how much it would cost to have a hard drive replaced in an iMac (white model) by a professional? It's out of AppleCare, but is this something I could have done at the genius bar? If so, any idea how long it normally takes? (day, week, etc.)

I have an older imac (20-inch, 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5) running OS X 10.4.11. It is no longer under warranty. About 2 weeks ago it turned off suddenly and then tried to restart itself. The issue has continued since then, with no rhyme or reason that I can identify. One time it got so bad that it...

(I hope this isn't superfluous; I have seen similar problems posted but no solutions that solved this problem, so here goes...) I recently bought a 27'' iMac (3.2 GHz Intel Core i3, OSX10.6.4) and all was fine and dandy until yesterday when my internet connection suddenly got very slow. It...

Well my iMAC G5 (1.6ghz,Gen1) was shutting down intermediately so I opened it up and removed the power supply and found many leaking capacitors. All were replaced. The capacitors on the logic board look fine with none leaking nor bulging ( I will take a picture.). Once I plugged in the newly...

I was taking apart my iMac G3 to replace the CD-RW drive with a DVD-ROM drive. As I closed the case on the iMac to screw it back on, the spring loaded button was smashed, but the spring left intact, but detatched from the iMac. Now i cannot turn on my iMac, because the spring button is gone. Can...

I've got a 24" iMac with a second monitor connected via the DVI port. I'd like to connect a Wacom Cintiq 12WX and wondered if there is any way to add this without disconnecting the second monitor? I know there's only one DVI port, but wondered if a device exists that can be added to allow...

I've got an old external HD that's died and I want to get the data. I think the HD is OK but the circuit board has broken. The problem... The drive is a bit old (Firewire 400, EIDE drive), so not sure how to connect it to my iMac. Maplins do an HD dock (like this) but I think these only...
