Does Creative sell replacement power supply / ac adaptors for out of warrenty produc

The part I need is the external power supply / ac adaptor. It's rated 3.5 V at 5Am
ps.
I checked every other possibility in the setup of my system and came to the conclusion that the power supply has died. I confirmed this by using a OHM-Meter which showed no power flowing through the device.
The device has a model number on it
Model: UA-450
If anyone knows if/where I can get a replacement part.
I emailed Customer service but have yet to receive any reply.
Thanks in advance,
Steve

Thanks for your note.. I am still not getting any display or Target firewire startup after
several days of off and on attempts to try every variation of reset, pram/nvram reset et.al because i hoped to have one shot at re-booting it to avoid sending it out for repair with data on the hard drive.
I've tried with and w/o battery in... (fully charged). I'm able to get through the PMU using shift-fn-ctrl-power keyboard combo but on subsequent attempts to restart,
power button with T or even power button alone, there is no power-on at all but a few times I've been able to get the PMU reset and before I go to manually restart it, it restarts (chime) itself, however the only thing indicating it is on is that the caps lock key lights and i can hear (listening with my ear to the thing that it's "on..." yet the drive never gets spinning - If there's any other idea to trick this thing into a Target FW startup or other means of accessing the HD to remove certain data i'm still hoping to get this one fixed (esp. if it is only the cost of a Logic Board replacement.
What is really curious is that a few times it has gone to a PMU reset (with the single beep) even when i have just tried to startup with the power-button alone....and then, as i say, restarted (well, powered on..but nothing else...no display, no drive recognition presumably...)

    Where can I buy a replacement power supply for my time capsule?

    Apple do not sell parts for the TC..
    And do not allow their OEM to sell parts.
    So you need to bypass Apple and create your own.
    Or fix the existing one.

  • Replacing Power Supply for 20" iMac w/o the Ambient Light

    I am pretty sure my power supply is dead for the second time. I've taken the back off and done the power button/reset smu test to see if led #2 momentarily blinks, etc. Taking it to the genius bar is a while to see what they say, even though out of warranty.
    Anyway, depending on what Apple says at the store about the cost to replace, I may do it myself. It looks like I need part #661-3350 but I am not sure whether it is considered non-PCF or PFC. Does it matter which one I replace it with?
    Thanks.

    Hello Twingirlz,
    I just removed my power supply and received good guidance from JimWarholic.com. who referred me to this Apple article on PSU replacement:
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacg517inch_PowerSupply.pdf
    Here is a suggested source for the 661-3350 power supply:
    http://www.dvwarehouse.com/index.php?mainpage=advanced_search_result&search_indescription=1&keyword=661-3350
    My G5 1.8 iMac (1st gen)lost it's first power supply at fourteen months. The replacement burnt out recently due to (at least) swollen (defective) capacitors.
    So it's somewhat uncertain if your replacement unit will again give up the ghost prematurely. The power supplies I've researched only have a three month guarantee. You can change the PSU without any trouble. But while you have the back cover off, look carefully at the Logic board to check for abnormalities (as in swollen or leaking capacitors (of which there are 25 in plain sight):

  • I've read that Promise Pegasus2 series does not sell replacement parts. I'm buying the new MacPro but am concerned about spending $2K for storage that may break and cannot be fixed. What are others buying for storage for the new MacPro?

    I've read that Promise Pegasus2 R6 thunderbolt 2 series does not sell replacement parts (no replacement parts for any of the Pegasus line). I'm buying the new MacPro but am concerned about spending $2K for storage (12tb version) that may break and cannot be fixed (am told that one must purchase a new unit if a part breaks). What are others buying for storage for the new MacPro? Thanks so much for your help.
    Discussion about this issue at MacWorld.com:  http://www.macworld.com/article/2082783/first-look-promises-pegasus2-r6-thunderb olt-2-raid-array.html

    I've used the original Pegasus R6 units for a couple of years now and have been very pleased with them.  On the two occasions I've had to call on their technical sujpport, I've found them readily available, knowledgeable, and very helpful.  In one case it involved the reset of a unit after a power failure at an inopportune time; in the other case it was a question about upgrading disk drives to higher capacities (1 Gb gto 4 Gb).  I was pleased to learn that their tech support people were in California and as good if not better than upper-tier AppleCare reps. The hardware itself has functioned flawlessly so far.

  • Replacement Power Supply Fan Or Whole She-bang.

    A few of you may have seen my posts here recently regarding upgrades. Well, good news is that they are all in and working...fairly well. There are a few hiccups that I will be monitoring in the next week.
    Anywho, something that I have determined to be an issue is that the Power Supply Fan is, for a lack of a better term, pulsating. Its running at all times but in a distinct cycle it increases and decreases in volume. One cycle is about 4 seconds I would say. I was chatting with the support people at Sonnet thinking it might be the fans on the Dual 1.8GHz processor I installed, but it wasn't. When I determined it was the power supply fan, he said he had an issue previously and said he installed a replacement fan and its worked fine ever since.
    Does anyone know if Apple still offers replacement fans for a Quicksilver 2001? Or where I could buy it elsewhere? I've checked online but only find power supplies.
    The power supply brings me to another issue. I have pretty much upgraded this computer to the edge. Its a 340Watt Power Supply (i believe) and I am running 4 internal hard drives, 4PCI cards (two of them are hard drive controllers), a new ATI Radeon 9800 gfx card, and the new processor. All my plugs are in use and I have one of the plugs split off into two plugs for the SATA drives.
    I figured the supply was enuff, and the computer is working and doing evertyhing I need it to - well almost, i'm having an issue where Quake 4 crashes itself and the computer from time to time but thats it. But I definitely notice the fan is running louder since upgrading.
    Would it be advisable to upgrade the Power Supply? Is that even possible. Online I dont seem many power supplies greater than the one I'm already using.
    Thanks in advance to any help posted.

    Ok.
    I got a wierd problem. I am receiving the grey screen with the folder face icon while intermittenly flashing the "?" that its searching for the system folder.
    So, i replaced both Case fan and Power Supply Fan. They are running fine and blowing air well. It turns out that the case fan really was the one that wasn't working well at all. It was dusty. The powersupply fan was dusty and I got rid of all the junk in there. I use the power adapters and they seem to be fine now.
    However, after I put everything back together, thats when the problems started.
    So, to remind....
    I have 2 SATA drives connected to a SATA controller. One of these drives is my start up disk.
    I have an 80GB PATA drive in the original drive slot.
    I have a 200GB PATA drive connected to a Sonnet Tempo Ultra 133 Hard drive controller.
    I plugged all the connections back to their places the way they were before.
    Once all the power cables and connectors were in place. I plugged the power cord from the wall socket into the back of the power supply. I pressed start and I got the grey screen immediately, then my 200GB PATA drive began clicking. And then the folder icon showed up. Then the harddrive stopped clicking.
    I'm also not able to eject the disc drive.
    I force shut the computer down. Unplugged the 200GB drive. Started the computer, and I came to the same grey screen. Still searching for folder. I shut down and unplugged the SATA drives because I still have the old OSX.4.11 system folder on my 80GB drive. Still, grey screen and search folder.
    I shut down again and uplugged the 80GB and plugged in the SATA drives. Still searching for folder.
    What should I do? I tried booting into Target Disk Mode onto my laptop, but it didn't work.
    PLEASE ADVISE!

  • Replacement power supply for Airport N base station?

    Tom welcome to the discussions.
    I would probably call the Apple number.

    I am sure that they can point you in the right direction.
    I am a little shocked that one of the Apple Retail stores can't offer you a Power Supply.
    If all else fails, it sounds like you have tried an alternitve, if it works use it, until you can get a replacment.

  • Replaced power supply same problem

    took my imac g5 to apple store where genius told me it needed a new power supply because machine would not turn on and when it did just to gray apple screen Even though the serial number was in the range for extended repair program, i was told mine was to old and did not fall under any repair program. I replaced power supply same issue of gray/white apple screen and fan kicks on loud. reset pram, reset smu, checked diagnostic led lights 1,2,3 all light as they should. Cannot start up with discs either. Anyone with any ideas it would be much appreciated.

    What a bummer! If you can get hold of the reseller, go after him for legal discs, if you can't get him, call Apple at 800-767-2775 and they will send you an appropriate set for a nominal fee.

    I would venture to say that your 3pin female adapter should be plugged into a 3pin male adapter on your motherboard.  This allows your system to control fan speed on the power supply.  I hope this helps you.

  • Need step by step directions to install a replacement Power Supply for a HP Color LaserJet 1215

    I have a HP Color LaserJet 1215 printer that is only a couple of years old.  Had a power problem at home that burnt out the power supplies of two HP Towers, a DSL Modem, and (I think) the power supply of my printer.  I have located a replacement power supply but would sure appreciate any one that would know how to replace.  I need a step by step guide aas to how to perform such a task.
    It would also help to have a diagram of the printer showing precisely how to get to the power supply.

  • Finding power supply that works for 6251 mega pc

    Hi!  I just bought a 6251 on ebay.  The person said the unit was like new (ha, ha)..I asked questions about the power supply & was assured it would work.  Surprise, surprise...got it 2 days ago & the fan does not work (no spinning).  I tried using a can of air to get it going, but no luck.
