How do I get new Restore Discs for my Intel iMac

I bought a used Intel iMac 2.0GHz without software restore discs.  How can I get the discs?

call Apple and give them the serial number of your mac.  They will send them to you for a small fee.

    You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.

    where can i get a restore disc for macmini 10.5.8, looked everywhere cant find one, not in apple store, ebay, amazon, help! want to put system back to factory settings to try and sell. thanks

    Otherwise you will need to search other vendors to purchase it. AppleCare will sell you replacements for the original discs that came with the computer.

  • HT1752 Restore disc for 10.2 iMac

    We use an old G4 iMac for word processing etc. It works great but trying to update to 10.2.8 caused an unstable system i.e. mouse doesn't work, can't mount drives. I can't find my original discs and want to somehow obtain a restore disc for this computer. Additionally I would like to upgrade it to 10.4 so that a new printer I bought will work with it. How can I get the restore and/or upgrade disc for this model?

    Hi.
    You'll have to find restore discs used.  Check eBay, Craig's List, Amazon.
    You're looking for discs with a grey label, specified for your exact model iMac.  Plug in your iMac serial number her at Apple Support to know which specific model you have.
    You will also be looking online for a Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger Retail disc.  It'll be a disc with a big black X on it.  Also used.
    Good luck.  I hope this is helpful.

  • Where can I get a new hard drive for my intel imac?  **** thing dumped, less than 3 years old.

    This is my first mac and the **** hard drive crashed in only 2+ years and of course the waranty is expired.  Can I replace the hard drive with any 3.5" replacement or do I need something special.  And if I do where can I get it?  I didn't see anything specifically for an intel imac at apple store.  I don't want to pay apple to install it, already spent enough money on this disappointing purchase.

    any 3.5" Sata drive will do.  I recommend http://www.macsales.com/, or http://www.newegg.com/

    Thanks!

  • How do I get an Installation Disc for Lion after I already installed it.

    I am furious, with myself and Apple.... I started this journey of upgrading to Lion soley because I needed to increase the capacity of the HD on my early 2008 MBP. I saw that it was much easier with Lion, I didn't see or understand the part about only on brand new computers...
    I have already upgraded the HD once before and had NO PROBLEMS... Time Machine back up and all that.
    I am only a Mac user for 3 years... I love it... But some preconceptions die hard...
    LIKE ....WHY CAN'T I MAKE A DVD OF MY INSTALL DISC AFTER THE INITIAL INSTALLATION OF LION?????? ESPECIALLY SINCE I DIDN"T GET ONE IN THE FIRST PLACE???
    Yea, I didn't read the fine print, I had to make one at the time of installation.... I didn't know that I wouldn't be given the chance again????
    Darn Darn Darn.... I only upgraded as a step along the path of upgrading the Hard Drive.... NOW I CAN"T WITHOUT MAJOR HEADACHES.... Grrrrrr
    LOL
    So, Apple... if you are gonna distribute your OS this way... fine... but jeez, how about making it so we can get an installation disc after we missed the chance on initial installation???
    What do I do?

    Thank you... I will take your advice and relax...
    OK will do.
    As you can tell, I totally disagree with apple on this.... It should be a DEFAULT that the ability to make a DVD start up disc is always there... not the other way around.
    I have spent hours on this upgrade... upgrading the Snow Leopard, upgrading to Lion, Installing new hardware, re-installing new hardware, re-installing the old hardware...
    Some people, like myself, have the ability to DIY, but I don't have the incredible highly detailed inside knowledge that I apparently have to possess...
    Thanx

I was wondering where i would be able to acquire some discs? I have got my sisters discs from her macbook pro from late 2011, the OS version is 10.6.3 but they dont seem to want to install, i get an error before i can begin the install that says something along the lines of "not able to install this software on this macbook".

    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
    edit: just looking at the model/build page and i found this:

    Hi, Josh. Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    You can try giving Apple a call to see if they have the original system CDs available. If they have them, they will send them to you for a fee.
    There is no download for Mac OS X 10.4. You need to buy a full retail version.

  • How can I get a restore cd for my mac g5

    I am looking for a restore CD for my mac g5

    Click here, phone Apple, and order them. If you don’t need the computer’s bundled software, you can instead use a retail DVD which is newer than the Mac but older than 10.6.

  • How do I get a replacement Disc for my Ipod?

    Here the problem I have. I bought this Ipod off ebay it came with the disc, and it worked fine for my girlfriend. She gave it to me so I could use it and now it doesn't work b/c I don't have the disc. She can't find it and I can't call Apple b/c Apple is one of the few places that doesn't have a 24 hour help line. Why is that? One of the biggest companies in the US doesn't have a 24 hour help line. So if anyone knows another way of me getting one then please let me know.
    I think that will solve my problems b/c when I am updating my IPod it stops right around 222.0 mb and I have a 20 gb Ipod. I have noticed that there is some kind of lock symbol right after it tells you how much space you have from the start. Mine says something like 18.4 gband then right after that there is that symbol.

    Do you mean you do not have the software? If so, download iTunes and the iPod software updater. Then install iTunes followed by the iPod software updater.
    By the way, what kind of iPod do you have?
    Different iPod models

  • How do i get new screen savers for N70 :s

    Please help! Thanks.

    There are screensavers available for the N70, some available from the Nokia Software Market
    I never bother with them, as the fancier ones use more of the battery, so I'll stick with the boring old Date & Time lol

  • How so I get new security questions for my Apple ID

    Please help me

    Click here for information. If you can't reset them through the method described in that article or by sending yourself a rescue email(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section.
    It isn't possible to create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions.

  • X61s (7668CTO) blue screens during factory restore - how to get working restore discs?

    How can I get factory restore discs that actually work? My X61s was purchased with a Vista Ultimate OEM (32-bit) installation, but when I attempted to do a factory restore this weekend using the recovery disks with the laptop, the recovery process complained that the second disk was not the correct disk. If I follow the prompts to continue it blue screens with a "Page Fault in Non-Paged area" error. I then tried to use the version on the recovery partition (not the created discs) but it also blue screens with the "Page Fault in Non-Paged area."
    How can I get factory restore disks that actually work to recover my Vista Ultimate OEM installation to the factory settings? I am (just barely) still inside my warranty period, so want to get this resolved ASAP. The only other recovery CDs it came with are for XP, but the laptop was purchased and shipped with Vista Ultimate and I don't want to downgrade to XP (if those discs still work).
    I could no longer boot into Windows or do a factory recovery. I have installed Linux so I can work again, but I would like to have the option of booting Vista if I need it.
    Thanks for any help/guidance,
    ~ Daniel
