How to install Bluetooth Card in imac g5 powerpc?

I have an imac G5 PowerPC with 20" screen. I didn't get a Bluetooth Card factory installed but recently decided I needed it so I bought one from a 3rd party vendor. Question is how can I install it?
I don't really care about voiding warranty, so if someone can point me in the right direction it would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for the response. I guess the question I have is then if there is no way to install a bluetooth card into an iMac G5, why is this part sold? Indeed, Apple even has a part number for it.
Do I trash the little guy that I already purchase and buy a dongle (I've always wanted a dongle....)? Or is there some way to get the card installed, as (a) I don't want to sacrifice yet another USB port and (b) I already own the thing! I would take suggestions such as:
- Just bring it to a dealer and they can install it for you (helpful, if true);
or
- Ideally, the method by which the end-user can install it at the expense of the warranty (question solved) is: <Follow that link>.
Much obliged as always. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

  • How to remove sd card from iMac

    hi how to remove sd card from imac ,thanks

    If your machine is in warranty, be careful not to do anything more that might damage it when removing it from the optical drive.  You might even be able to convince an authorized service technician to carefully remove it under warranty from the optical drive.  It is a design issue that lets people accidentally insert the SD card in the optical drive.   Of course if that's the only copy of your information on the SD card, be sure to let them know that, so they are extra careful not to damage it when removing it.

    How to install Leopard in my iMac if it has no DL-DVD player?
    My eMac is:
    eMac G4/1.25 (USB 2.0) with 2GB RAM

    Most PPC Macs cannot boot OSX from USB, they need Firewire... that being said, out of 13 PPC Macs I had one that booted from USB Drives, including Flash Drives, it was my eMac/1.42GHz as a matter of fact, USB drives would show as a boot choice if I held the Option/alt key at bootup, (nowhere else), but It lost that ability when I reset the NVRAM.
    The USB boot workaround that works for some is...
    Connect the drive to your machine, and find out which partition the OS X system is installed on. I usually find this by going to Disk Utility and looking at the info for the partition on the USB disk with OS X. That is, disk2s3 is usually for a USB disk with no OS 9 drivers installed that is the second disk disk. disk3s9 might be a USB disk with OS 9 drivers that is considered the third disk. There are other ways of finding this out, but in my case, my disk is disk2s3 (the 3 on the end will come into play soon).
    Start up the machine in Open Firmware (this is the fun part). Hold Command-Option-F-F right after the machine is turned on.
    Here is the moment of truth. If this step does not work, I have had very limited success getting a machine to boot off USB2. In Open Firmware, type devalias, and you should get a list as output. In this list, look for ud, usually below where you see hd (ud is "USB Disk," I presume). If found, it will usually have beside it /pci@f2000000/usb@1/disk1, or something similar. Again, if you see this, I have not had this fail yet.
    Now type printenv boot-device, which will usually get you output of boot-device hd:,\\:tbxi. (See where this is going yet?)
    Type setenv boot-device ud:3,\\:tbxi where the number after the colon corresponds to that partition number we found in step two. You should get an ok back.
    Type printenv boot-device, and you should see the change displayed already. Something like:
    boot-device        ud:3,\\:tbxi        hd:,\\:tbxi"

    You'd need to clone the Install Disc to a Flash Drive, or make a DMG of it then Restore it to the Flash drive.

    OS X already comes with Gujarati fonts, so you don't need to install anything.  Can you not read this page?
    http://www.gujaratsamachar.com/
    If you want to type Gujarati, you need to go to system preferences/international/input sources and check the box for Gujarati, plus the box for Show Input Menu in Menu Bar, plus the box for Keyboard Viewer.  Then select Gujarati from the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen and type.  To see which key does what, select Keyboard Viewer from the same menu.
    I recommend you do NOT install Gujarati fonts from the internet, because OS X only works right with those provided by Apple.  Especially avoid non-Unicode fonts from long ago like Saumil.  The international standard is Unicode now.

  • How to install lan card in solaris 11

    Hi,
    can some one please tell me how to install lan card in solaris nevada snv_55b X86, 5.11
    When i do ifconfig -a it only displays loop back driver only
    lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
    inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
    The other driver was missing can please some one tell me how to install that?

    Well, the lan card has to be one that is supported by Solaris and you need to have the proper driver installed before you'll be able to get it running. A good starting point would be to look at the Solaris Hardware Compatability List (HCL) at:
    http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/hcl/index.html
    There is a blue box which says "Check out the X86 device list" which may be a good place to start. You won't be able to pick out Solaris version you're running for the OS type menu but if you can find the device anywhere you should at least be able to determine which driver it uses so you can check that against your system. If you don't have the driver package installed, you'll have to install it before you can see the device. If course, if the device isn't supported you're stuck. At least the HCL can help you select a new interface card which should work.

  • Tv tuner card for imac 400mhz powerpc g3

    tv tuner card for imac 400mhz powerpc g3 - 256ram - I'm running os x 10.3.9. Does anyone know of a tv tuner card or device that I can use to watch tv on my imac?

    Unfortunately most of these TV devices require USB2 bandwidth so are not suitable for the iMac G3. 
    The Firewire versions (EyeTV 310, 410 and 610 depending on input type) are the only options.
    The EyeTV 250 is an analogue only Tuner that does work on USB1.1 but in a low quality mode only.

    If you are asking because some site is requesting it, you can "fake" it by changing the User Agent in Safari to IE.

    I have tried and is doesnt' automatically load up when a program is placed in the drive.... its like it isn't reading it or something

    In addition to stedman's, you really should not need any software for your camcorder. What is it supposed to do? You already have software on your Mac to work with video: iPhoto and iMovie.
    Edit: take a look at this article:

    Hi,
    Answers to
    1/, no it will not affect your system as these cards are hot pluggable, and as long as you insert into the right slot (refer to the Cisco documentation)
    On this Cisco web page, http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/optical/ps2006/prod_installation_guides_list.html
    2/ you should not for minor card addition like this.
    3/ you will find the procedure document for the applicable rel of ONS software you are running.  The procedure will have a section that documents steps to install various card type.
    Hope this helps.

  • Somebody can help me how to install windows in my imac

    Somebody can help me how to install windows in my imac

    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
         1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows
             XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  For Boot Camp
             4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
             instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
             installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
             installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the
             computer into OS X or Windows.
         2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
             Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software
             virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
             with OS X.
         3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
             or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that
             enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
         4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
             applications without having to install Windows.  The
             Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
         5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
             as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
             It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
             Fusion.
    Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.
