27" iMac Height of Screen?

Can this be reduced at all. Looking at purchasing one but I am short about 2 cms from where I want to put it. Is the stand adjustable for example?

The stand isn't adjustable in that way. However, on the 27" iMac you can purchase the Apple VESA adaptor and then use any VESA mount.http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC434ZM/A

  • Can the 21.5-inch iMac height be reduced to 44.4cm by tilting screen?

    Can the 21.5-inch iMac height be reduced to 44.4cm by tilting screen backwards? The spec. height is 45.0cm, my desk opening is 44.5cm...

    You might want to go for a Configure to Order version that has a Vesa Mount on the back and then use a short wall or desk mounting arm.

  • Which Airport card do I need for an iMac G4 Flat Screen 15"?

    Hi, I have an iMac G4 (flat screen, with silver arm and round base), 15".
    I'd be extremely grateful if someone could let me know which Airport card I need for this Mac and also whether or not I also require an adaptor. I have looked this up on the Apple site and also in 'The Flatscreen iMac for Dummies' book (I'm a complete technophobe, I'm afraid!), but am none the wiser.
    If possible, model numbers for the Airport card and adaptor that I do need would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Jeremy

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and click on More Info, or if you're running Mac OS 9, choose Apple System Profiler from the Apple menu. Check the speed of the computer's CPU; if it is below 1GHz, you need the regular AirPort card, with the AirPort Extreme card being used on newer iMacs. No iMac G4 requires an adaptor to use an AirPort card.

  • Why can't I use a Thunderbolt iMac as a screen for an TV or a gaming console?

    Is there any hopes for a device/adapter that would make it possible to use an Thunderbolt-equipped iMac as a screen for other devices? It worked with DisplayPort, why wouldn't it work with Thunderbolt? Is it just a business political decision?

    don't know if the OP will be back, but here are perfect instructions for creating text tones:

  • IMac 27" frozen screen

    just can not identify in what situations, but when my Mac has a frozen screen, I have no other alternative but to push the off button. The most ironic thing is that, clearly the internet connection keeps. I know this because I'm usually listening to online radio. When it occurs, I can not change my dashboard and also can not switch to another application because I can not use the keyboard and the mouse click does not work.
    I am currently using Mac OS X Yosemite, but the problem has persisted for several other versions of the system.
    I

    I have exactly the same problem with a my 27" iMac of exactly the same vintage and configuration. It freezes this way anywhere between once a day and once a week.
    I also see an additional variation of this crash, where when I wake up the machine from sleep, the backlight comes on, but no image is drawn. It glows gray. In the form of the crash that Helton reports, the cursor moves with the mouse, but nothing responds to clicks. I've also seen where streaming (and I believe locally stored iTunes) continue) to play. I am not sure whether the machine remains visible on the network.
    I have never used any anti-virus on this machine. In a desperate attempt to isolate the problem I have done the following:
    Fresh clean install of Mavericks onto a new, external Firewire 800 drive
    After the install, I only re-installed the apps I use frequently: iTunes, Aperture, Chrome, Adobe Flash and Microsoft Remote Desktop, HP printer driver, TextWrangler. That's it.
    Replaced 3rd-party memory I had installed with the original factory installed 2x 2GB DIMMs
    Blown out the bottom vents and the circular vent in back with canned air
    Unplugged the external DVI monitor I was using
    Done the usual setting resets via the startup
    Ran the built-in memory checker at startup
    Ran checks on the harddrives for errors, permission problems, etc...
    Wiped the internal drive clean, and did a fresh install on that
    The crashes still occur.
    The system does not appear to be hotter than normal. I used to have a widget that monitors temps (but doesn't change fan speeds).
    This system has the Seagate 1TB harddrive that was eligible for a recall, but I didn't do it. The drive has never reported any SMART errors.
    Since you are still seeing crashes after updating to Yosemite, I'm not sure what to try next, myself. I've considered pulling it apart to make sure there is no dust in the fans. It doesn't seem to be overheating, but despite the sensors, there doesn't seem to be a way to record a regular temperature history to see what the temps were like at the moment of the freeze.
    Of course, it's out of warranty. It's five years old, but it's plenty fast enough for me. The screen is still gorgeous. If it weren't for this, I'd use it for at least another two years. I was thinking of getting a MacMini to plug into it and use the iMac as a screen, but the new MacMinis are dual-core. It wouldn't be a nice leap in performance.

  • Command + F2 does not turn iMac into a screen

    hi, i am trying to use my 27" iMac as a screen to my Macbook Pro Retina.
    I have the thunderbolt cables plugged in, but pressing Command + F2 does not work. Yes i am pressing these buttons on the iMac.
    The first time i tried it a few days ago, the iMac did turn into a screen, but after a while it fell asleep and the connection was lost. I have not been able to restore it again, which is annoying.
    Another guy at work has the same issue and he has found it randomly works and sometimes doesn't.
    Does anyone know why? feel like the $50 spent on the cable is a massive waste of money if its not going to work. Wish apple would fix this.
    Any help is appreciated!
    i have also looked at   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3924   and it doesnt have anything i dont already know

    So i was able to solve the issue by updating my operating system. I havent yet upgraded to Mavericks, im still on 10.8.5 but as soon as i updated, the iMac started connecting to the macbook pro.

  • Just got the new iMac. The screen keeps jumping to the launch pad screen randomly when I am working in other applications. Please help.

    Just got the new iMac. The screen keeps jumping to the launch pad screen randomly when I am working in other applications.
    I have the magic mouse, don't know whether it is something to do with that? Any ideas?

    If gumsie's suggestion isn't the answer, try logging into another account, like Guest, and see if you get the same behavior. You may need to clean the windows on the bottom of the mouse.

  • Older model iMac.  Grey screen, no tones, apple logo and spinner, then shuts down.  Tried all greyscreen tips on Apple Website.  Suggestions?

    Older model iMac.  Grey screen, no tones, apple logo and spinner, then shuts down.  Tried all greyscreen tips on Apple Website.  Do not have start up disc.  Do not know what OS it runs.  Suggestions?

    Since you don't have a startup disc you haven't done ALL of the tips on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    I don't know what you've done but you need to follow the tips listed and that could include possibly erasing and reinstalling the OS. Older model iMac does nothing to help us understand what you're working with. You can call Apple and provide them with your serial number and for a fee they'll ship you a set of original install discs or you could possibly use Snow Leopard which you can get for $20 here http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    You can enter the serial number here for specs on the iMac http://www.everymac.com
    And if you don't know where to find the serial number see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1349

    There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
    Delete ALL your email accounts.
    Restart Playbook
    Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON.  Manual (push off) will burn battery.
    Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required. 
    Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi. 
    Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.

  • My G5 iMac has a screen color problem. The color is green with lines. What can I do to repar this? Sometimes the screen will freeze and I have to reboot the computer and the screen will be normal for up to 5-6 hours and then suddenly changes back to green

    Try running in Safe mode.  This leaves out some video drivers.  Which results in machine not using advanced video hardware.

  • IMac 17" Flat screen - display remains black

    Hi,
    I've a IMac 17" Flat screen, and after he went into sleep, I cannot wake up my screen...! When I put on the mac, the screen becomes a little less black but that's all... Using external screen (video out on the IMac) gives good results on the other screen... Anyone knows what happens?
    I've already reset PMU, PRAM is zapped (3 times), check cables, ...
    Thanks,
    Bart M.

    Hi All,
    The 'black screen upon wake from sleep' condition is on my daughter's 20" iMac G4 as well. This computer is a refurbished one ordered from the online Apple Store. Right out of the box it had the same problem as Brian described - electrical noise going across the screen (though only intermittantly) and gradually got worse until we now have only the black screen when it wakes up.
    After a few calls, Apple Care said this is a 'known issue' with refubished 17" and 20" flat panel iMacs. They believe it is a software problem and they are seeking a solution. They recommend to disable sleep mode until they find a fix. No word on how or if we would be contacted when such a fix is available.
    A local CompUSA (an authorized Apple repair center) tech said to bring it in, because it sounds to him like a problem with the inverter board. If so, it would be covered under the warranty. I wonder if this is a weakness with these iMac models. We'll be taking it in within the next couple weeks and will report the results.

  • IMac 27" locked screen

    My iMac goes into screen saver, but when screen shuts off it will not appear unless I restart machine? WTH??

    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for action in Safe Mode...
    Reboot, test again.

  • IMac spontaneous blank screen

    I have an iMac 27", late 2009, 3,06 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 2 TB hard disk, ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
    If I start up normally, the screen blanks out before I can log in as me, or just after. So I can't do any work, hence I use my Macbook al the time, but miss the 27" screen when making complex multi-link Excel sheets.
    However, I never had any problem when using Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion, but since I upgraded to Mavericks and now Yosemite, 10.10.1,
    About the same time I also installed MacKeeper.
    However, if I start-up from an external disk, I can work on the iMac and the screen stays fine. So, it looks to me that there are some malware or software problems.
    I tried to unmount the iMac hard disk to re-format the hard disk, do a clean install and put the date only back for each user, because maybe the TimeMachine copy is also infected.
    Does anybody have any suggestions of how to solve this?
    Regards Ekibaloe

    "MacKeeper" is a scam with only one useful feature: it deletes itself.
    First, back up all data.
    Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions.
    If you have incompletely removed MacKeeper—for example, by dragging the application to the Trash and immediately emptying—then you'll have to reinstall it and start over.
    IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Applications
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Quit it if it's running, then drag it to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your login password. Click the Uninstall MacKeeper button in the dialog that appears. All the other functional components of the software will be deleted. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    ☞ Quit MacKeeper before dragging it to the Trash.
    ☞ Let MacKeeper delete its other components before you empty the Trash.
    ☞ Don't try to drag the MacKeeper Dock icon to the Trash.
    ☞ Don't try to remove MacKeeper while running in safe mode.
