Can you add superdrive to 2009 imac

The superdrive is not working in my 2009 imac.  Is it possible to add a external drive?  I tried an LG model and the Apple drive but neither were recognized.
Thank you.

it should be possible and it should not be required to be apple made
the driver is a generic as in all the drives use the same driver
I have 3 external windows hd's connected by firewire and usb and it works fine with my imac in osx7

  • Can you add memory to a IMac's graphics card?

    I have a 2011 IMac with an AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1GB GDDR5, can I add another 1gb to it?

    Greetings,
    I have a 2011 IMac with an AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1GB GDDR5, can I add another 1gb to it?
    The memory on the AMD Radeon HD 6970M is integrated into the graphics card.  It cannot be removed / upgraded.
    While not directly related, you can upgrade the RAM of your CPU if you like.
    Cheers.

  • Can you add memory to iMac 6.1?

    Can you add memory to an iMac 6.1 (currently has 1 GB) and an MacBook Air (currently has 2GB) - 11 inch late 2010?

    Yes,
    Your year and model iMac can take 4 GBs max., but that model will only recognize only about 3.2-3.4 GBs of the total 4 GBs.
    Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).

  • Can you add GHz to your MAC PRO??????

    I want to buy an 8Core MAC PRO which consists of Two 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors
    Can you add a third Processor?? because with video editing Two 3.2 Ghz is not as much as one might think.. You can buy PCs with Four 3.0 Ghz for 1,000.00 less

    So is two 3.2 Ghz going to be fast enough for editing?? I am doing a lot of chroma keying right now I have an imac 2.66 ghz and I am having to downsize all of my footage from my XH-A1 because it takes so long to render when it is in 108060i. So.. yeah just wondering if maybe someone could give me some pointers as far as what to buy right now like i said i am doing a lot of green screening and I want to be outputing with the full resolution of my xh-a1 without having to convert to 720
    Sorry if none of this makes sense. -Nick

    No.
    Refurbished Macs are sold as-is, what is listed are the only configurations available.
    If you want a fusion drive you will have to wait until one is listed or buy a new model.
    What mende1 suggested is not possible.
    The 2012 and 2013 iMacs cannot be opened without risk of serious damage to the screen (that will NOT be covered by warranty) and no SSD module is available for them even if you were willing to risk removing the screen.

  • How can you add a where clause using "OR" with applied ViewCriteria?

    [JDeveloper 10.1.3 SU4]
    [JHeadstart 10.1.3 build 78]
    I am using JHeadstart, but have a question probably more in the ADF area. On the JHeadstart forum I asked:
    "I am overriding JhsApplicationModule's advancedSearch in order to be able to search in childtables. I created transient attributes, display those in advanced search and in the overridden method I check if any of these are filled by the user and create a where clause like 'EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> AND <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>)'. I add this whereclause using ViewObject.setWhereClause.
    So far so good and it works. However, if the user selects 'Result matches any criteria', combining setWhereClause and the normal advancedSearch QueryByExample implementation using ViewCriteriaRow do not provide the desired result, since the ViewCriteria and the setWhereClause are AND-ed together, which is fine if the user selects the (default) "Results match all criteria" (everything is AND-ed) but not the "Result matches any criteria", since then every criterium is OR-ed together, except for the setwhereclause criteria and the set of ViewCriteriaRows, they are AND-ed.
    I looked if I could specify that a WhereClause will be OR-ed to existing applied ViewCriteria, but no luck. Do I have to rewrite also advancedSearch's ViewCriteria implementation and write an entire setWhereClause implementation to be able to "OR" every criterium? Or any other suggestions? Can I look at the entire Where clause and rewrite it (after applyCriteria and setWhereClause are called on the VO)?

    Sandra Muller (JHeadstart Team) told me today: "This sounds like a JDeveloper/ADF issue that is not related to JHeadstart. The question is: how can you add a where clause using "OR" if there are already one or more ViewCriteria applied?
    To simplify the test case, you could create a simple ADF BC test client class in a test Model project without JHeadstart (in the test class, use bc4jclient + Ctrl-Enter), in which you first apply a few ViewCriteriaRows to a View Object and also add a where clause.
    Can you please log a TAR at MetaLink ( http://metalink.oracle.com/ ), or ask this question at the JDeveloper forum at http://otn.oracle.com/discussionforums/jdev.html ? (This what I am doing now ;-))

    Anyone knowing the answer or am I asking for an enhancement?

    Hi,
    Can you SET your whereclause as follows ?
    ('Y' = <isAnd>
    and EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> AND <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>))
    OR ('N' = <isAnd>
    AND EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> OR <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>))
    )

  • How can you add an image in Mail without being an attachment?

    How can you add an image in Mail without being an attachment?
    In otherwords I'd like to put my logo in the email not as an attachment but as an image.
    Is there a simpel solution to this problem?

    You don't.
    It's not possible. The e-mail protocol is designed for text; anything else has to go as an attachment.
    Different mail clients (such as Mail.app, the mail client bundled with Mac OS X) may have different ways of handling such attachments, but they are still attachments. Each mail client has its own rules and methods, so one may display a picture as if it were in the body of the message, but another client may do something completely different.
    A way of faking it is to format your message in HTML (which is a kind of text). The image is hosted on a remote server, not added to the message; instead, you include a link to it in the body of the message, as you would when building a web page. (This is also what the two tips helpfully provided by X423424X do, except that the link to the image is added in the signature, rather than the body of the message.) What exactly happens to it is, again, at the discretion of the mail client. In my case, for instance, displaying images in HTML messages is turned off, and will stay resolutely off.

  • Can you add page numbers to the PDF version?

    Can you add page numbers to the PDF version?

    Hello saradianapasik,
    If you start with a document created with Acrobat Pro, or exported from your word processor as a .pdf, then you should include page numbers in that originating application. After you have exported a .pdf form from FormsCentral, it is no longer editable.
    I hope that helps,

  • Can you add apps to iPad open in list

    Can you add apps to the open in list of an iPad

    As far as I know, you cannot add apps to the Open In list using any setting or built in feature in iOS. This is controlled by the iOS itself. IIRC, you can delete apps from the iPad that appear in the Open In list in order to make room for apps that you would like to appear in there, and if you continue to use the apps that you want to add to that list, eventually they will appear in the list. I believe that the more that you use one particular app, the more likely it will be for it to appear in the Open In list.

  • Can you add vids from a camra to Ipad

    Can you add vids from camra to ipad 2 (to make vids on imovie)

    surely. You need to sync the files to your camera-roll in iOS, use itunes/iphoto. IMovie in iOS can access all videos that are in the camera-roll ( photos.app ) .
    The Apple iPad camera connection kit will also be a big help  : With it you can insert a digital cameras SD-Card into the iPad and mass-import the footage . Using this you avoid the iTunes/PC/OSX procedure to load material into the ipad.

  • Can you add a function sort of like spam, but for websites. So I can put website to spam bucket

    Can you add a totally new functionality, which would be similar to email spam.
    If I get to a website I don't ever want to see in any of my searches or anything I would just click WEBSPAM button and the site is gone from my web viewing experience.
    It is sort of an opposite of favorites or bookmarks. Negative bookmarks could be a good concept name.
    So again, the negative bookmark site would not show in any of my searches. The idea is to make this simple.
    A one click solution.
