Do all iMac G5's have built in i-sight.
do they?
i was wondering.
Just to give you a bit more info/background of the iMac:
There are altogether 3 "flavours" of iMac G5, namely the 1st gen iMac G5, the 2nd gen iMac G5 has an ambient light censor on its power-on light at the bottom right, and will adjust the brightness according to the room's light level, so sometimes we refer to this iMac G5 (ALS), the last iMac G5 is with the iSight camera.
There are 2 flavours of iMac Intel, the 1st being the Core Duo Intel chip, the latest model is with the Core 2 Duo.
This info may seems mundane to some or all, but is much easier to refer to when you talk to someone, a vendor, shop assistant or tech support.
Cheers

Does iMac Flat Panel have built in Dual Voltage Support?
I have iMac Flat Panel 17" machine (PowerPC G4 1GHz) I am living in USA currently I am travelling to India where the power rating is 220V 50Hz instead of 110 V. I know all laptops have dual voltage support.
Does iMac Flat Panel have built in Dual voltage support or Do I need to buy converter of some sort?
If I need to buy Power Converter what Power Rating it should be?Hi Vijay,
Good news:
Yes, you can plug the iMac G4 anywhere in the world, no problem.

I have built sites on my imac, mac mini and MBA all in iweb09
i have built sites on my imac, mac mini and MBA all in iweb09 is there anyway to get them all on the same machine ? (i use mobile me)
Here's what worked for me,
I have two sites, one I mad on my macbook and one I made on my iMac.
First go into the "Library" Folder. In there you will find a folder labeled application support.
Go into that folder and you will find another call iWeb. Your site is in there.
So I took the file for the site out of the iWeb folder on my macbook, and copied it to my
iMac.
I keep them separately. If i put the file from my Macbook into the iWeb folder on my iMac, it would replace the file that is already there. When you start iWeb it will automatically open from that folder.
SO to keep them separate and organized, and to open the one you want there is a little trick.
First copy them all to the machine you want them on.
Take all your site's files and keep them in their own folders in the location you choose.
Make sure that on the machine you are using there is nothing in the iWeb folder native to that machine. Just move that file to another location where you wont lose it.
Now, start iWeb. When you do, iWeb will prompt you to either create a new site or allow you to choose one from a location of your choice. Tada! That is when you can choose whichever site you want to work on from the location where you are keeping them.
Good luck.
What is your site by the way?
mine are www.kloran.com and www.myenglishimages.com -
I am having a heck of a time syncing my macbook pro with my iMac. I have all the updates and followed the instructions on apple.com, but there is no communication with either device nor an option that I find to sync them up. When I turn on photo stream on either device, it only selects a few, maybe 1,000 out of the nearly 10,000 photos I have. I try selecting all and then choosing photo stream but with no luck. I know there's a lot of you smart people out there who know what I'm doing wrong. Please help!!!
The following is from this Apple document, iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ, and will help you understand how Photo Stream works:
My Photo Stream
When you take photos on an iOS device, or import photos from your digital camera to your computer, My Photo Stream can automatically upload your new photos to iCloud and push them to all of your other devices.
When do photos upload to My Photo Stream?
How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
Since your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, be sure to select Photo Stream > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream.

I have an iMac model 4,1 running OSX 10.6.8. The CD/DVD drive went bad and I have replaced it. However I can not get disks to eject. I have asked about this before and tried all all the suggestions I have received but I can not eject.
Yesterday I opened up the iMac and reinstalled the drive to make sure that it was not an alignment problem. I still can not eject. When I try to eject the drive makes noises like it is ejecting but the disk does not come out.
How do I solve this problem?Hi again Hal
Link to your other thread > The slot loading CD/DVD drive in my...: Apple Support Communities
You have also tried resetting the PRAM as I suggestion in your other thread...?
See resetting the PRAM > About NVRAM and PRAM
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
3. Turn on the computer.
4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
6. Release the keys. -
I can connect my Iphone 6 and Ipad Air to my Bose Soundlink but not my IMac. I have tried all the usual solutions but nothing works. It has worked recently but not in the last week. Help
make sure it's not being connected to by any of the other two
one can only connect 1 device at the time and just by waking up sometimes a headset connects to a device
automaticly
then forget the bluetooth device in OS X and put the headset in pairing mode / discovery mode and connect with it once again with the mac -

I am about to buy the new iMac, but do I have to buy all the software I have in my old one, like Aperture, pages, etc.?
No, you don't. If you got it from the Mac App Store, log into it with the same Apple ID and redownload it for free. If you got it from CDs or DVDs, reinstall it from those; having the DVD version of a program does not get you a free download of it from the Mac App Store.

I am not familiar with networking in the least. I feel like, being as it is 2015, this is not an unreasonable request. Basically, I do not make much use of my desktop iMac anymore, other than as a backup computer and to sync my phones. My primary computer is my MacBook Pro. I'd like to make my MacBook my primary computer for downloading music, saving and editing photos and images, and syncing my phones, but i'd like to do so without clogging the hard drive on the MacBook.
Basically, what I am hoping to do is network my iMac, and MacBook Pro through the 2TB AirPort, and sync my phone through the MacBook without losing all data (ideally, I'd like to be able to sync through either computer at will).
Additionally, something like 100GB of images are stored on the iMac, and I specifically purchased the MacBook with the upgrades to do image editing on, but again, I don't know how to transfer the data to the AirPort, and I don't want to slow down the MacBook by storing all of the data on the laptop.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.
-BryanSure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff. -
Here's a puzzler, how to improve reception on iMac Flat Panel, w/built-in
Here's a puzzler, how to improve reception on iMac Flat Panel, w/built-in airport card. I have done alot of research into cantennas and the like, including parabolic dishes etc. I am trying to connect to my friends open network a few houses away but get sporadic signal most of the time. Just for fun i took a piece of aluminum foil and fashioned a curved dish and saw the signal strength spike to more than double sometimes. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on this. Since i am on the all in one iMac (the half sphere base style) Flat Panel i don't have the option of putting my antenna in a can, dish etc.
This is not a critical issue, i am obviously on line and getting along, but would still enjoy any suggestions for improving the performance on this airport card.
Thanx in advance, AnykeyHi! That's a puzzler only due to there being no external port for adding an
antenna outside of the one built-in the iMac!
Another option may involve some purchase; as you may be able to extend
your own wireless network by using an Apple airport base station as a
bridge to (perhaps) see a greater increase in signal strength; it could act
as a repeater for both receiving and sending the IP signal. Then, you could
administer the base station by ethernet cable.
There are a few on-machine antenna options for some models of Apple
computer at QuickerTek online; they clip outside of PowerBooks, etc and
are said to not intrude or require wires into them in order to work externally.
I am not sure, but suspect the Quicker antennas may use USB power.
And that brings into the question the use of external USB wi-fi devices
and altering them into a directional antenna; most of these have the
wi-fi card and antenna built into the same little module. Then you may
have to make your own dish to focus the beam after all!
I hear a small dish network satellite dish could be used to capture or
send signals, but do not know if you'd need a powered device to use it.
That would have to be for "line-of-sight" use, of course.
Some links I'd posted somewhere in Discussions were to a few inventive
antenna and base DIY sites; I no longer have the urls saved...!
Best of luck in this matter! -
I just bought an Imac. I have an ipad2 and an iphone 4s. My wife has an iphone 4s. Both of us have different apple ids. Would you recommend a new one or use an existing id? Why?
It is best to stop making all new apple IDs, as software is permanently tied to them, and you can't converge them. Make differnt ones if you plan to get divorced though....

How do I add more memory to my Imac, I only have 1GB of memory and need 2GB to download Yosemite!
How do I add more memory to my Imac, I only have 1GB of memory and need 2GB to download Yosemite?
Janet,
This is why the question rkaufmann87 asked about your model is so important:
[click chart to enlarge if needed]
The list covers the early iMacs with Intel processors that shipped with either OS 10.4 or 10.5 and have only two RAM slots. As you can see, some have limits to what version of OSX you can install. If the step rkaufmann requests does not narrow down your model, you can do one more thing.
While the "About this Mac" window is open, click the "More Info..." button at the bottom of that window to get this (assuming you are really running OS 10.5.8 as shown in your profile):
The code I've indicated with the red arrow corresponds to the codes in the second column on the chart. Post the code your computer reports--again don't post a serial number.
If your iMac shipped with only 1GB RAM, I fear it is one of the earliest models that cannot be upgraded all the way to Yosemite. -
How can I record a cassette on CD? New 27 inch iMac does not have mini plug/mic input
I want to transfer music from a cassette to a CD using my new iMac but the iMac does not have a mini plug input for a mic. I understand that I need to get an adaptor to use a USB port. I bought a Syba SD-CM-UAUD USB Stereo Audio Adaptor and tried to use it. All the sound came in on the left channel, the sound level was very high and could not be adjujsted down, and was very distorted. After about 5 minutes of trying to adjust, my iMac showed a dialog that said It was having a kernnel panic! I discontinued trying and returned the Syba. Can anyone recommend an adaptor that will work with the iMac and Toast Spin Doctor?

My wife and I have separate have separate user accounts on our IMac. We have separate Apple IDs for iTunes. How can we use iCloud on our separate iPhones without sharing contacts, calendars, etc.
If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.
