Can I use the memory from my 2007 iMac in a new 2012 iMac?

Finally putting down my 2007 iMac and buying a 27" new iMac and I'm wondering what is worth salvaging from my old computer. I'm pretty certain that it has either a fan or thermal compound issue (it runs super hot) but I what about the RAM. Is it possible to use it in the new or should I just recycle the whole machine?

The old RAM won't be compatible with the new generation iMac, but you may be able to sell it privately quite easily.

  • How can I use the speakers from my old iMac (with miniRCA? plug) on a new iMac

    How can I use the speakers (M-Audio) from my old 24" iMac on a new 27" iMac?  There is no jack on the new iMac - is there an adapter that will use the mini-RCA (?) plug from my old speakers to connect them to a new iMac?  Thanks ...

    Thanks again!
    Hmmm ... I wonder.  The input jack for external speakers quit working on my old iMac (it made lotsa static noise for a while when I moved the plug or computer, then quit working completely; I figure something inside the computer got loose or crapped out - and I'm too cheap/lazy to take it the 20 miles to the nearest shop that might fix it).  When I plug the speakers into the headphone jack on the old iMac, I get very low volume or just one channel.
    I don't have the new iMac yet, but I was hoping to use these old speakers instead of buying new ones.  I will certainly try your solution - what do I have to lose?  If they don't work, then I get new ones - or try something else.
    Many thanks for your time!

  • Can I use faster memory in Mid-2007 iMac?

    I currently have factory spec (1 GB) memory in my 20" (Mid-2007) iMac. Specs for memory in this machine say I need pc2-5300, unbuffered, non-parity, 200-pin, 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM. I noticed my hardware has an 800 Mhz bus.
    1) Can I use 800 Mhz RAM that is otherwise the same spec?
    2) How important is CAS Latency (e.g., the installed memory is spec'd as CL=5, the 800 Mhz RAM all seems to be CL=6)?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    I totally agree with lenn5! Many folks here in the forum have reported all sorts of problems, everything from kernal panics to won't even boot when they installed the 800MHz ram. You will see a great improvement in performance by adding another 1GB or 2GB module in the empty slot, or max it out with a 2x2GB kit.

    Both the iPad Air and iPhone 5C use a nano-SIM. Physically, they will work, but your operator may have some restriction. You should check with them.

  • Can I use the display from the iphone or rotate so that I can use the tv in portrait orientation? or rotate the display of the tv?

    Can I use the display from the iphone or rotate so that I can use the tv in portrait orientation with a app or appleTV? or rotate the display of the tv?

    The landscape and portrait mode when AirPlaying your iPhone to the Apple TV will depend on the app you are in on the iPhone. 
    For example, the home screen on your iPhone is in portrait mode even if you rotate the phone, so if you are AirPlay mirroring this, it will show in portrait mode on the TV.  If you have photos taken in landscape mode and rotate your phone or watch a video in landscape mode, then the video should appear in landscape mode on the TV. 
    If things that should be in landscape mode are not in landscape mode, you might have the orientation lock turned on.  You can turn it off or on using the steps in this link: http://www.cultofmac.com/142535/how-to-enable-orientation-lock-on-your-ios-devic es-ios-tip/
    I hope this helps!

  • How can I add the content from a iPod Nano to a new iTunes account

    how can I add the content from a iPod Nano to a new iTunes account

    On the computer in iTunes log into her Apple ID and then see if recent purchases are shown by clicking on her name in iTunes, entering her password and then selecting the option. If there is nothing there then she bought that music with a different Apple ID.
    You can use TouchCopy to move all the songs on the iPod to the computer. Then try to play one of the purchase songs and it should show the account used to purchase it and ask for the password.

    AAll of your iTunes purchases can be re-downloaded again. Log into iTunes Store, select the Purchases tab for Apps, Music, etc.
    if you've been syncing your old iPod with iTunes, you can restore everything to your new iPod from the old backup.

    Just back the phone up to icloud and restore iPhone from backup on the new phone. When you are going through the set up process it ask you if you want to set the phone up as new or restore from a backup. You do not nee itunes at all or anything hooked up.

  • Can I use the HD from my prior HP PC as a 2d HD in the new one?

    Yes, you should be able to transfer the information/data from the old drive to the new drive before formatting it. transferring programs is a completely different story, however. Unless the program is just an".exe", it is unlikely that you will be able to just transfer it. Most programs have an installer that write files in many location on the drive and adds entries in the Windows registry. Without all these dependencies, the program won't run.

  • How can i Use the symbols from the main html page?

    Hello!
    Im trying to find a solution for days!!
    i need to use my symbols from the html page, for example to hide the symbol i want to use: sym.$( "sym1" ).hide(); or to make it draggable (with jquery UI) i wanna use: sym.$( "sym1" ).draggable(); but it doesn't work.
    i know i can do the same from the edgeActions.js file and here is the working code:
          Symbol.bindElementAction(compId, symbolName, "document", "compositionReady", function(sym, e) {
             var ex1 = sym.$( "farmer" );
             //ex1.html( '<input type="text" />' );
             yepnope({
                 both: [
                     "libs/jquery-ui.min.js",
                     "libs/jquery-ui.css",
                 callback: function() {
             ( ex1 ).draggable();
    but the main problem is that it's always include this file as the very last .js, so in case Im trying to use the symbols from the index.html page (For example:  ( ex1 ).draggable();  ) the variables are undefined (because it read the html first)...
    Please Help, Im desperate..
    Thank you very much!!!

    Hi, Eran-
    You will want to use the AdobeEdge.* APIs, which should give you access from external JavaScript into your Edge Animation.  The API document has information on that.  However, you will need to wait until the runtime loads, so you should use the bootstrapping method that is outlined in Josh Hatwich's post on our blog:

  • Can you use the value from a numeric indicator in a numeric control?

    Hi!
         I have to develop a code where I have to find the maximum value of a waveform and draw a line at 50% of the value. So I chose to find the amplitude of say 10 cycles of waveforms and found the maximum value out of the amplitudes. 
    But my real problem is, I have to use the maximum amplitude value that I get from the max. array VI and put it back in program to calculate the 50% value. 
    So is it possible to use the value from a numeric indicator and put it in a numeric control? Like in MATLAB or C, you give the variable a name and use it later to do any computations. Is it possible to do something similar in LabVIEW? 
    Solved!

    Hi!
         Thank you very much for taking some time out. I have been trying to do this since 2 months and I am stuck right where I am.
    The situation is, I have to calculate the amplitude of the irregular waveform for a few trials and then find the maximum amplitude out of the trials and display a line at whatever % of amplitude the user chooses. I tried using property nodes but I am getting Error 1055 for some unknown reason. Then I decided to draw the line using DC offset but it turns out it calculates the amplitude each time and so the line keeps dancing everytime. Now my challenge is to have the amplitude calculated for say, 20 loops and then calculate the max from that. I ran out of ideas so I am posting here. I am using LabVIEW version 8, and I'll upload a few of my attempts. I hope I am not troubling you'll much.
