Dead Imac not dead yet...

Hello,
Two years ago my Imac died, I brought it to a special (supposed Apple dealer but in reality a fake one) and two days later they asked me to pay $400 to change the motherboard they called dead. I refused and so they charged me $40 to get my comp back (this is a shame but what should I do?!) I left the comp in a corner.
This year I've thought about buying a second hand motherboard on ebay to get it fixed and use it only for the net so my G4 won't get troubles and I'll be able to work whilst checking the net.. I so bought a motherboard recently after months of searching...
I change the motherboard and guess what the problem is exactly the same so I figured out the Apple Dealer cheated and never looked at my computer (they were better for PC than MAC)
So I'm asking you Apple genious Techs what should I do?! buying a new screen would be stupid, changing the board etc.. waste of time and money but besides I'd love to use it again for the net, I wonder if it wouldn't be better to threw it away as I did with the HD that came with it and died first!
Let me know if there is a "cheap" way to get it working again ...
regards

I would think so. That guy Larry switched the 600 into a 400 but the heat sink was moved on that machine (600) to a different place. It's just screwed into the divider panel so he just moved it.
I don't think there's any difference in the 400 to 450.
Also the speed of the CPU won't have any bearing on the PAV. It's like a power supply. In fact some of them (can't tell you which) were badly soldered (visual inspection). A clean older 400 with light use would be better than a 600 that was abused.
BTW you have checked the battery in this thing haven't you? It should read 3.3 - 3.7 V.. Slots won't start is the battery is dead.

Dead drive - Not dead after all

17" rev B iMac.
One day my Mac refused to start up - all I got was a flashing folder with a question mark.
No problem I thought, just run Disk First Aid.
So I booted up from my iPod (very useful) and ran Disk First Aid.
But it could see no drive!
Then I ran Disk Warrior, Drive Genius, TechTool Pro etc. all with same result - no drive.
I called Apple and ordered a new drive.
While I waited for the new one to arrive I took my old drive out and installed it into a Mac at work to check it. Gues what? it worked fine. I put a new drive in my home Mac and it refused to see it.
So after eventually finding my Apple Hardware Test cd I ran that on my Mac and it passed!
So my problem is:
Why does my Mac refuse to see my internal HD, and how can it pass the AHT if there is something stopping the HD from working?
And how come it boots OK from the external iPod?

If the drive works and the Mac boots from an external drive, then it seems that there is a problem either with this connection to the midplane or with the SATA controller.
I have no idea why it would pass the AHT if that was the case. Give Apple a ring and find out what they suggest.

Mains power cut to house - iMac now DEAD

Today I turned off the mains power to change a light bulb in a room that has given me some problems with sparking in the past. Unbeknown to me, my son was using my iMac... (no, I failed to check properly, now I am suffering, believe me..). After I switched the power on, my son exclaimed "Well, now the computer won't turn on!" We have a surge protector which would have been on and working, but as the computer - a 17" intel duo core iMac purchased new in mid 2006 is old, and the surge protector is the same age, I am sick with worry wondering what it could be, and there are no repair shops near us open tomorrow, or even in our town! I have to wait a week, and travel 100kms to the apple service specialists.... This computer is home to all our music (massive amounts my son has on there) and my photos - thousands, a serious hobby. As well the computer runs Final Cut Pro Studio software, as we do a bit of video editing. I have backed up no files, always meant to get around to it..... As the computer is older, the main thing that devastates me at this point is my photos - a life history really, and thousands of hours too, photoshopping, etc..... I have tried to computer in different power outlets, tried turning on, off, unplugging, all I can find recommended on these kind of sites - but to no avail. The screen is black, and not a sound can be heard. Completely dead. Not one sign of life in the 8 hours since..... I have been reading about PRAM batteries... this computer has had a massive amount of use, daily and in the house of serious creative insomniacs - for six years now, so almost daily serious use, and as yet just two dead keyboards, no other problems.... I got some extra RAM when it was purchased. But recently it has not liked shutting down (it hasn't) so it has been pretty much permanently on, with the screensaver up,..... could this suggest a dying PRAM battery? experts please, this internet reading has done my head in, now I have to wait a week!!!!! to know if our photos and music can be recovered.... if not the computer itself revived....?
Thank you for any help. I know, I am SUCH an idiot for not checking all electronic devices were off, but as we know, this MAC hasn't been turning off recently...

Here is what Apple says to do with an iMac that won't start, it's from the owner's manual.
If your iMac won’t turn on or start up Â Make sure the power cord is plugged into your iMac and a functioning power outlet.
Â Restart your computer while holding down the Command (x) and R keys, until the computer restarts. When the Mac OS X Utilities pane appears, select an option to repair your disk, restore your software, or reinstall Mac OS X and Apple applications. For more information, see “Repairing, Restoring, or Reinstalling Mac OS X Software” on page 44.
42 Chapter 4 Problem, Meet Solution
Â Press the power button (®) and immediately hold down the Command (x), Option, P, and R keys until you hear the startup sound a second time. This resets the parameter RAM (PRAM).
Â If you recently installed memory, and your iMac sounds tones every five seconds, make sure that the memory is correctly installed and that it is compatible with your iMac. Check whether removing the memory you installed allows your iMac to start up (see page 38).
Â Unplug the power cord and wait at least 30 seconds. Plug the power cord in again and press the power button (®) to start up your iMac.
Â If you still can’t start up your iMac, see “Learning More, Service, and Support” on page 54 for information about contacting Apple for service.

Dead imac g4?

Hi there, I need help!
Last week I got a call from a friend because his imac g4 (800mhz - Tiger 4.2) wouldn't start up; it would get to the grey Apple and the spinning wheel and then just sit there. I tried fsck in single user mode, the catalog check failed, same when booting from the installation disc. I ran Mac Test Pro and all the hardware passed, but the test failed again when it came to checking the directory. Booted it up in firewire mode from my own machine, ran disc utility, failed again. Anyway, the upshot is that we did a clean erase and install with Tiger, ran software update, checked everything with Applejack, no problems.
However ... I went round there tonight, saw the maching running fine, my friend was using mail, the machine had been fine all weekend, when all of a sudden, Mail crashed - spinning beachball of death. Tried to force quit - nothing, held the power button and restarted the machine - got the folder with a question mark. Zapped the pram - no effect, tried single user mode - won't do it, tried to open the cd drawer - won't do it (even in open firmware). I took the machine away again and booted it up using my machine in single user mode with the Tiger disc in it:
Ran Disc utility from the Tiger DVD (in my imac G5 in Firewire mode) opened System profiler on the G4 and can see no hard drive in the G4 and no burner - It's as if the Hard drive and the cd drive have been disconnected.
Now I'm still getting the Folder/question mark and can't boot the mac up or open the cd drive.
Any ideas?
All the best,
Kev.
Note, I've also posted this on Mac Fixit.com

Hi again,
just an update and another plea for help. I've tried a few more things, but still get the flashing question mark - zapped the PRAM (again), replaced the battery, checked the harddrive/cd cable, measured the voltage on the battery check points (3.61 vdc), and finally reset the PMU (pressed it only once). Still no sign of the hard drive and open firmware eject cd is still unable to do so.
Incidentally, upon startup, after the chime, I can hear a 'tick tock, tick tock, tick tock' sound, and then I can hear the HD spinning down.
Can I say for definite yet whether the HD is dead or not? And if so, then what's happening to the CD drive?
Any help would be most gratefully received.
All the very best,
Kev.

How to get data from hard drive in dead iMac?

I have an old slot-loading iMac (350Mhz G3 blueberry) that just died, probably a dead power supply or something. Won't turn on at all. I don't care about restoring it, I just want to take the hard drive out and grab data from it. I've found instructions for removing the HD ... but any tips on the best/cheapest way to hook it up to get data from it? It's EIDE I believe from what I've read so far. Thanks for any help.

Hey Richard.....Thanks for the reply to my question about my wife's dead iMac.....
Her iMac had been acting up lately, mostly to do with her Outlook Express freezing up in OS9. I dunno if OS9 was freezing or if the application was failing. Regardless, I would have to quit OS9, restart Outlook which at the same time restarted OS9. All would be fine for a while, a day or two and then the scene would repeat itself. But I think that issue is separate from the iMac being "dead". Often we have power outages in the area, more than we should. I had the iMac plugged into a battery backup, some APS product I think it is. I believe it is only good for less than an hour as we have other devices drawing on it too. Most of our power outages are of short duration, just enough to be aggravating, sometimes having to reset clocks, etc...And a couple times, I would have to reset the time and date on the iMac so this told me that the PRAM battery was below minimum voltage. But the iMac would ALWAYS restart, even with the low battery. But the most recent outage, about one hour duration, did in the iMac, somehow or other. I do believe the battery backup basically fully discharged. So I removed the battery, could not find a new battery locally so I drove to the big city and paid the local Apple service dealer a visit. I got ripped big time price wise, embarrassed to say. So I get home, put the battery in the holder, depressed the CMU reset, the powerbutton illuminated as did a green LED by the memory modules for less than three seconds and then quit. I also heard the HD trying to spin up and a high voltage THUMP which I assume is the CRT trying to ignite. If I unplugged the iMac, removed the battery, plug in the power again and hit the power button, the iMac would repeat the same short on period and then quit. So it did not seem to make any difference if there was a battery in place. I read somewhere to pull the battery, pull the AC cord, hold down the power button to dump any current (?) and let the unit sit for 24hrs. After that length of time, I was supposed to replace the battery, depress the CMU reset, wait ten seconds and then feed it AC. Well, when I pressed the power button, I heard life for maybe five seconds, maybe a second longer, then a beep and then it shut down. I pulled the AC cord, pulled the battery, re-inserted the battery, depressed the CMU reset, waited a few seconds, plugged in the AC cord, depressed the power button and I am back at the under three seconds of "power-up" and then nothing, dead, no beep, nothing. I think maybe it is a waste of time trying to mess with this unit, looking for a newer iMac on eBay, the snowball series with the 17" LCD, might be time better spent. Hate throwing stuff away, that's why I am up to my ears in junk, maybe u know that scenario. The wife likes my 19" ACER LCD screen, hooked up to this old dual 800mhz, though she dislikes the noise and the tower. But we both agree the large LCD screen is much easier on our aging eyes than the old iMac CRT. Anyway, I appreciate your help, always GREAT to correspond with an Apple fan.....John Bauer

Battery not recognized, not charging, but not dead...AC plugged in

My MacBook recently had a dilemma of not turning on. I went to the Apple Store and the Genius Bar tech guy fixed it with a SMC/PMU whatever power reset process it's called. Now my computer turns on, it just doesn't recognize the battery. The tech guy said my battery isn't dead, it just needs to be recharged. I'm kinda concerned that he didn't bother solving the issue at the store or try to tell me what is wrong. The computer only runs off the AC adapter, but sometimes when i plug it in the MagSafe connector will quickly flash green and orange repeatedly over and over and the battery status icon will go between X and 0% or from "No batteries recognized" to "Battery not charging" or "Charging not complete". This only happens occasionally. It also might say "Calculating..." but it will always go from one of these things then back to "No battery recognized" super fast repeatedly for a long while.
Also, when i close my MacBook, it won't go to sleep immediately like it used to. So if i close it then unplug it to take it somewhere, it shuts down as opposed to sleeping. I know if it gets unplugged it might shut down cause lack of battery recognition, but why won't it sleep when i close it?
I installed the Battery Update thingy for MacBooks and i don't think it did anything whatsoever. The AC cord works, the battery works, just not together on my laptop. I'm guessing while it was in it's permanent shut down state before i went to Apple Genius Bar, it must have drained the battery power, because i pushed the button when it didn't turn on the first time and it was fully charged with five green lights, then over the next two days i kept checking it and it slowly decreased until it is now a single flashing green light. It had two green lights when i went to the store, but after i got it "fixed" it stopped recognizing the battery.
I've had this laptop for nearly two years now, and it has survived a lot. I read many forums/threads about battery failure in other MacBooks like mine, bought around the same time as mine, but my issue is a mix of all the different problems.
For example, I have the same issues as these people did with their macbooks, but none of their solutions helped me:
"my battery logo alternates between telling me the percentage and most of the time showing an 'X' in the battery, it says no batteries recognized. it even does it with the charger connected!"
"The battery has a single, rapidly flashing, light when I press the button on it."
"But it never is able to calculate a time, and if you disconnect the power, the computer immediately shuts down."
"When I take out and reinsert the battery, it'll recognize it for a minute, flash in and out of orange, and than it will say no battery available."
"In system profiler it says there's no battery installed, and the little LED lights on the bottom of the battery don't do a thing. It's as if the battery is not installed, yet it is."
"My macbook has stopped working when not plugged in. The battery is installed but in profiler it says battery: not installed. Also there are no lights on the battery to show it charging. In the menu at the top of the desktop the battery has an X in it."
"my laptop doesn't recognize my battery-- it only runs on the wall charger. I've tried popping the battery out, then back in. When the laptop isn't plugged in and I push the battery's little button, the first light flickers briefly for a second or two and then shuts off."
"I turned on my Macbook with AC power after returning holidays. I realized it couldn't charge itself, and the battery indicator showed "X" with "No batterries available.""
I searched everywhere for a solution. But it seems like i'll have to return to the Apple Store and get it fixed that way. Here's the computer info anyway:

Do you have AppleCare? It seems to me you need a new battery but obviously we can't tell how bad the battery is unless you get that battery info while it is recognized.
Try another SMC/PRAM reset and get that info. Call AppleCare about your issue if the Apple Store won't give you a new battery. (Depends how many cycles you have).

Using a hair-dryer to resurrect a dead iMac CTR!

I visit this forum often enough to see how many people are finding it hard to get their old (but perfectly usable) iMac CTR to work again.
Well, after putting in a new battery, my good old iMac G3 400 SE slot loader was still not booting. I knew everything worked. I turned it off for a day, and then it wouldn't boot up again. All I got was a green flicker as I tried to power on.
Well, low and behold, I used a hair-dryer to warm up the inside of the system, and it booted up fine!
Hopefully this might work for some others with presumable dead iMac G3s. But the question is why??? If I put the system to sleep I get the same "playing dead" iMac and have to wake it up again with the hair dryer. Any thoughts?

Thanks for your input. Yes I did check a number of things, including all connectors fitting ok, but maybe I missed something. I did try swapping out even the logic boards and hard drives, to no avail. My guess it is something with the monitor itself, since the other components work fine, and only when the monitor is heated enough will it start.
I have no problems with the computer otherwise, but I hate to waste electricity - it just can't sleep or it will play dead. Thanks again.
I hope this might help others who might have the same problem thinking it is something wrong with the computer, when it is really the monitor. Go get those hair dryers revved!

Use dead iMac Display as monitor?

I have a dead iMac (mobo fried) and was wondering if there is any way I can extract the display panel, and use either a bought or DIY/hacked adapter to use it as a standard monitor.

And I've not been heavily into dissecting my four
iMac G4 computers with 17" LCD displays. But
I do know the computer with a failed logicboard
will not support the display; the graphics or video
processor is integrated, and the panel has only
a few of the necessary support circuits with it
above the chrome arm in the panel's case.
There are a few ways of integrating a different
fully self-contained display into the dead iMac
case and perhaps use the existing LCD or an
other LCD and put additional circuitry into the
base of the iMac G4 instead of the dead LB.
And the earlier reply was essentially spot-on.
Other discussions on this topic are most likely
to be found in the proper forum for iMac G4,
Apple - Support - Discussions - iMac G4 flat panel:

Later G5 & Intel-based iMac cases could be
used, empty, to support an entire complete
display of similar size; and the circuits likely
would fit if the case had room enough, empty.
An apology would be in order, if you came in
to a retail establishment and talked to a tech
with a determined to fail attitude like that.
Good luck & happy computing!
{edited to add correct iMac G4 forum link}
My attitude was like that because i know what I am talking about. I now it is not a display. That is what bugged me. he talked to me like I had no idea what I am talking about. he also did not provide an answer like you that was well thought out and seemingly well researched, he said "I guess." I will, and have accepted, that this is not really possible. It was not his answer, it was his attitude towards the question. and just a BTW, I am talking about the intel imac. The white one, not the g4.

10.6.7 Combo Update = Dead iMac

I have posted this in the iMac category but it probably belongs here.
After a failed Software Update of 10.6.7 on a 20" 2007 silver iMac (it failed to reboot fully and was stuck in a loop with a blue screen), I used an install disk to re-install SL back to 10.6.0. All good I thought and everything was working fine, so I downloaded the .7 combo update and installed. Same thing after restart - stuck in a loop with a blue screen. Once again forced shutdown, pressed power button again and nothing happened. No power, no sound, no chime. The iMac is dead this time. I have reset SMC etc but no help.
I'm hoping someone else is having a similar problem because when I take it to the Apple Store they will not believe a software update could cause this.

Sounds like you may have a permissions issue. The proper way to install a major update is to first repair disk permissions, reboot, do the update, reboot, then do another repair of the disk permissions. If the list of items being repaired shows anything other than java items then rerun it again until that's all you have (for some reason the java run time system always gives a permission error).
I would try to start the unit from the dvd, run disk utility and see if the drive shows up, if it doesn't then your drive is dead and you need to go to the Apple store anyway. If it does show up, select the volume and run "repair disk". If that is clean, then do a repair permissions. If it can't be made clean, then you may need to erase the drive and start all over.

Imac G5 dead- cant reinstall OS X 10.4

Hey there,
My Imac G5 decided to stop working recently and now when it is switched on it hangs up a the grey apple screen with the spinning cog and then eventually the apple symbol turns into a prohibitory symbol.
I have tried a number of things: I have tried to to start in safe mode( can't seem to do so),
I have started in single user mode( gone through fcsk etc and it says my HD is fine)
, used target disk mode with another Imac G5( erased my HD then used disk warrior to rebuild).
I also tried to reinstall OS X from the host Imac when in TDM with no luck- Although when I reconnect in TDM and the dead Imacs HD appears it has all my new settings, name etc.
Now when I even start in single user mode I can't do anything( tells me that it cannot find the root).
I hope someone can give me insight to this problem.
extra info: no externals plugged in, I dont seem to have my grey imac g5 recovery disc(the other Imac i have access to is running 10.3.9 so I assume I cant use its discs-as the would be going backwards, I have the black 10.4 install disc.
cheers

Graeme:
It is difficult to tell what is going on from your description. Here is what I suggest:
1. If you do not have an up-t0-date backup, boot into Firewire Target Disk Mode and backup.
2. Boot from your Tiger install disk and reformat your HDD:
Warning! This procedure will destroy all data on your Hard Disk Drive. Be sure you have an up-to-date, tested backup of at least your Users folder and any third party applications you do not want to re-install before attempting this procedure.
Boot from the install CD holding down the "C" key.
Select language
Go to the Utilities menu (Tiger) Installer menu (Panther & earlier) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select Partition tab in main panel. (You are about to create a single partition volume.)
Select number of partition in pull-down menu above Volume diagram.
(Note: 1 partition is normally better for an internal HDD. External HDDs usually have more than one)
Type in name in Name field (usually Macintosh HD)
Select Volume Format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
Click Partition button at bottom of panel.
Select Erase tab
Select the sub-volume under Manufacturer ID (usually Macintosh HD).
Check to be sure your Volume Name and Volume Format show up correctly.
Click Erase button
Quit Disk Utility.
Open installer and begin installation process.
Choose to Customize and deselect Foreign Language Translations and Additional Printer drivers.
Check box to install X11 (Tiger) BSD Subsystems (Panther & earlier).
Proceed with installation.
After installation computer will restart for setup.
After setup, reboot computer.
Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select First Aid in main panel.
Click Repair Disk Permissions.
Connect to Internet.
Download and install 10.4.10 Combo update
Computer will restart after updates.
Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left side bar.
Select First Aid in main panel.
Click Repair Disk Permissions.
Please post back with update or with further questions or comments.
Good luck.

Dead imac help, please

Hi! If somebody can help me. Two days ago mi imac went dead. When I press the botton power on, she responds with a deep beep and does not turn on. The panel is black and the fan is working but everything is dead.

Hi Harvard:
You could try one other thing and reset the PRAM (look for a knowledge base article).
If that will not work, you have a hardware problem that needs to be diagnosed at either an Apple store or an Apple certified technician.

I wish to remove my hard drive from a dead iMac, and have it place into an external case. Any good sources for the person to do the work?

I have a dead iMac (mother board), intel duo.I wish to remove the hard drive and made into an external hard drive (hopefully being able to read the contents). Any recommendations as to whom I should go to to do the work?
