Anyone know the cost of a repair

I have an iMac G5, 1.8 Ghz, 17" screen w/64 meg video card. My 4 year old daughter was using it, but it just would not turn on one day. I just want to know how much it would be to repair if it is just a power issue. I don't know if I want to fix it, or just wait and pick up a new mac mini. Thanks.

Get pcespedes,
There are known issues with the G5 power supply. If your computer is less that three years from point of sale check here:

Run your serial number and see if your in the range.
If it is make an appointment with your local Apple Store's Genius bar and make sure that they know that your machine is under a repair extension. You might want to take a printout of that page with you.
I did all this for a couple of eMacs before the extension ran out about 3 weeks ago.
They fixed both for free.

    Does anyone know the cost to repair a accelermeter on. iPod touch 3th gen

    Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for the price listed here:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    Hee is one third-party place.  I do not see a listing for accelormeter replacement.  I would suspect that they would replace the logic board which is expensive but not listed.

    I'd like to know too for my MacBook Pro Retina (Late 2013). Having spoken to some Apple Stores here in Sydney, I need to bring in the computer for them to tell me. I'll know more tomorrow.

  • Hi does anyone know the cost of having my HD replaced by Apple. I have iMac 2009 with 500gb HD and its 21.5

    DOes anyone know the cost of having my HD replaced by Apple, can not get any idea of cost anywhere. I rang Apple Belfast  who didn't know they put me through to tech support and he didn't know either. My iMac is 21.5 2009  with 500gb. I would just like some idea before I take it up to them. It's almost certain that the HD is fried can not boot to external can not get off white screen by doing all Apples checks for white screen. So worse case is probably the HD and would like to know what I will be up for, if it is the worst case. I can supply more info if anyone can help . Pleaseeee

    I have the same iMac as you but with a 1 TB hard drive.
    Apple replaced the 1 TB hard drive of iMacs manufactured between October 2009 and July 2011 because of problems. When I took my iMac, the Genius gave me the bill (even if the repair was free) and the 1 TB hard drive cost about $100. This was with a 1 TB Seagate hard drive, so the cost for a 500 GB hard drive may be smaller, depending on the brand

  • Anyone know the cost of getting a detailed text message printout?

    Anyone know the cost of getting a detailed text message printout?  Thanks!

    Thanks to the community for your replies.
    Hello pederson3,
    Thanks for posting. That’s a good question. We don’t have an additional charge for you to be able to obtain text message details. If you simply want to view certain information such as date, time and number, as Grothka mentioned, you can login to My Verizon and view the last 3 months of messaging details.
    If you would like to retrieve the content of the text messages, as budone stated, we do require a search warrant. Keep in mind text messages are only kept approximately 3-5 days but never more than 10 days due to system limitations. I’m sure you’ll find this information helpful. Have a great day.

    Hi,
    What version of the OS did you upgrade from ?
    Anything before OS X 10.8.2 may have an issue if the Logic/Mother board has been replaced and the Serial Number not "flashed" back to it.
    In the Apple Icon menu use the About this Mac item.
    In the new panel click twice on the line that tells you the current OS level
    It will change to the Build number (and alternative count to the OS versions) and then the Serial Number.
    If it is missing you need to get it replaced.
    (It is supposed to be done on Repair or Refurbishment).
    An Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider as the best choices.
    There are apps you can download (They are Mac Model specific) but needs careful typing as it is a once only trip.

    My iMac (running Lion 10.7.3) is connected wirelessly to a Laserjet 2550.  This has operated fine for a long time, but now the printer cannot be found when Time Machine back ups are taking place - Bonjour does not show any devices being available when Time Machine is running.  Does anyone know the cause & remedy please?

    Your points match mine pretty well,though here are some thoughts:
    1. I thought about this theory myself this morning (iTunes possibly causing more issues), but I haven't been able to verify it.
    2. When I set up a new user it seemed better for a while, but the issue croppped back up. Yesterday I fully wiped the machine and reinstalled from scratch. I did not reimport my user from TimeMachine, but the problem has come back. My thinking was that I might have some really old software or prefs hanging around causing the issue. No dice.
    3. This is my current theory of the issue, so my next step will be to pull the RAM from Crucial and see how the system behves. IF that doesn't eliminate the problem, I'll pull the factory installed RAM and replace it with the 3rd party RAM. The odd thing is how many people seem to have similar issues - I know two personally, and have seen several posts on forums. I think the most common point for this happening was the 10.7.2 update, which would point to software as the culprit.
    4. That matches my experience.
    My hope is that this will be repaired in the forthcoming 10.7.3 release (current production version is 10.7.2), but otuside of what I noted above, I'm at a loss.

  • Does anyone know the difference between the Applecare Warranty for the Macbook Pro and the Applecare Protection Plan Auto Enroll 607-8192-B APP FOR MacBook

    Does anyone know the difference between the Applecare Warranty for the Macbook Pro and the Applecare Protection Plan Auto Enroll 607-8192-B APP FOR MacBook

    AFAIK, the difference is that the auto-enroll occurs automatically when you purchase the device and you will have to disburse the cost right there and then. Whereas the other comes in a box, can be purchased separately later and you must manually enroll your device into the system to activate the additional protection. This must occur before the base one year warranty is over.
    So, if you don't want to pay up at the moment you buy the computer, you can wait up to say 11 months and buy the AppleCare warranty extension later. Just be sure to complete the enrollment BEFORE the base warranty is over, else Apple will not honor the extension (all in the fine print). This applies to all devices that offer an AppleCare option: notebooks, desktops, iStuff, etc.

    Here's the steps to follow if your printer isn't turning on.   
    If you've gone through all those steps and you still don't have power, there are a lot of places that sell a replacement cord and supply for that printer.

  • Does anyone know the default size for 24 in. imac display?

    I inadverently changed the display size on my 24 inch imac. The font in the toolbar at the top of the desktop is larger than I want. Also, when I open windows in different applications, they open larger than the display and have to be downsized in order to see the entire window.
    Does anyone know the default size for this display? Or is there a different way to fix my issues?
    thanks in advance.

    Hi Napamike2: The default setting for the 24" is 1920X1200. If that doesn't get you back to the proper display, maybe you have accidentally activated "Zoom". To check go to System Preferences, Universal Access. Check that Zoom is turned off.

  • I am moving from Southern California to Maui, Hawaii and I need to figure out the best way to get my 24 inch iMac across the ocean. Does anyone know the best way to do this?

    I am moving from Southern California to Maui, Hawaii and I need to figure out the best way to get my 24 inch iMac across the ocean. Does anyone know the best way to do this? I have found GearGrip's LCD harness so that I can do carry-on onto the plane...  Or maybe use a Pelican Case to do it as a "checked bag"? Or any other suggestions??! Please help!
    Thanks so much!!

    I don't recommend you send the iMac in a checked bag. Might get damaged.
    Check the airlines website for carry on guidelines.
    Or, if you have the original box that the iMac came in, if you have someone who can pick up the iMac for you, send it ahead Fed Ex and insure the package.
    Just make sure the display is covered to protect it. A blanket perhaps.
    Aloha ...
