We have a imac g5 w/ 1.9 ghz cpu. Recently its been experiencing banding in the display. Video playback is off too. Checked the resolution and colors -> that is correct. Connected an external monitor to it using mini vga cable, same problem. Formatted and installed OS 10.5, same problem...

I have a Samsung SPH a640 phone and I want to be able to trade files with my iMac via Bluetooth, I already have the phone paired with the iMac, but I don't know how to trade files. Any help, thanks

We've got an Intel-based iMac (I believe it's Intel based) running OS X Tiger. We've been experiencing a problem where the system will go into energy saver mode at random but consistently when running a particular business application. I've done some searches on the behavior and have read...

Do they sell cables that can make my iMac (Intel) viewable on my TV? I have a semi-new tv. it has RCA (red, yellow, white) cables and a S-Video .. none of the Green cable things though. Just wondering where I could get something like this. Pretty much I want to make my iMac viewable on my...

Hello Everyone, I am a the "new owner" of am iMac Snow 600 system running Tiger 10.4.11. As this is my very first Mac system I can assure you that after 2 days it will not be our last! We can now see what all the hype is about, and being an off and on user of Linux I...

I've been using Macs since '85 and this one has me stumped. Machine in a 800Mhz G4 15" flat panel with 512/60, Airport card and Superdrive. OS 10.4.11 Symptom: Boot to black screen most of the time. Workarounds that sometimes work: 1. Zap PRAM then try Option key and choose HD to boot...

I have the white iMac, not the brand new model, and I always thought that the audio out would accomodate a mini-plug OR an optical cable. Right now I was trying to switch from a mini-plug-to-RCA to optical (TOSlink), but I see no way to fit the optical cable into the mini-plug (headphone) audio...

Does anybody know if there is a USB parallel adapter that would work for my HP LaserJet 2100 to hook up to my new iMac? i read a couple of recommendations for other models, but not specific for this my printer and mac. They are all around $40 with no free shipping, so I would hate to spend...

Hello fellow Mac users! A friend a mine has bought a new 20" aluminium iMac, the version with the 2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo 2 processor. He already owns a 20" Intel Core Duo 2.0 GHz iMac, which as we all know has a very, very nice display with a viewing angle af around 178 degrees... Now...

I have an older lamp style iMac whose neck has become loose, so that the monitor will not stay in a position, but always drops to the lowest possible position. I do not want to damage the neck, but what tools can I use to tighten the joints a bit so it will stay in a set position?

I just bought a G5 Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8MHz, with 28 inch screen, and just noticed a subtle but discernible gradation change in the screen brightness (bright to somewhat darker/ left to right), the gradation changes are uniform top to bottom, but they begin to be noticeable only on the right...

when I press the power button the restart commences for about 20secs then the time stops on the wristwatch cursor. All suggested attempts to restart have failed such as restart the computer!

I have an iMac and I want to connect a pair of active studio monitors to it. The monitors have these connections: Unbalanced RCA Balanced XLR (balanced/TRS) http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/2/9/9/341299.jpg I'm pretty sure that RCA is terrible, so how would I...

My sister just got a new (aluminum) iMac and the fan is super loud. It was hard talking to her on the phone with the noise in the background. I checked the Activity Monitor and didn't see anything out of ordinary. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this or is it a hardware issue that needs...

I am purchasing a new 24" iMac next month at the release of Leopard and I want to connect and play my Xbox 360 through my iMac screen. Every option I come across either costs a lot or doesn't support HD (which I would want if possible). Some products that I have rejected include EyeTV, and the...

Hello there, I bought an aluminum 24" iMac with a wired Mighty Mouse (2 button)... Must say that its a rather cumbersome mouse! What is the *BEST* mouse for an iMac? Has anyone used the Razer Pro V1.6 mouse? Or should I just go for a Logitech? I am seeking insight from...

So in the nearish future I hope to upgrade from my iBook G4 to a desktop. My dad just got a 2.4GHz iMac, and it was very impressive. I'm trying to decide between that, or a Mac mini. I liked the new keyboard but also love mine, and my 19" LCD monitor is perfectly acceptable. The issue is in...

We have an Early 2006 model 20" iMac. On most occasions it doesn't get to the apple logo when booting. The machine is still booting as we can feel the HD moving, however there is nothing on the screen. If I boot the mac by pressing in the pwr button for 10 seconds so that it boots in...

Hi, I bought a Logitech M-BJ58 Optical Mouse at a garage sale for $2.00 and the picture of it is seen on this website: http://www.topmicrousa.com/lo93opmops.html So I tried it with my Intel iMac which I bought last December and there is a bit of a delay on there. Is there a way to reset...

Dear All, I am thinking of ordering one of the new 24" iMac 2.8 GHz machines. However I find it difficult to choose which hard disk to order. I prefer not to use external hard disks, but would like to have as much space as possible. I also very much like a quiet machine. Does anyone...
