How to receive data from my broken iMac?

My iMac G5 broke down for good recently. An electric spike burned it down. Now its power supply and possibly even logic board are broken (it won't even make a beep, no life what so ever). Is it still possible to obtain the data that's stored on its hard drive? If it is possible, how do i do this, or do I have to take it to a service shop.. which by the way is terribly expensive here where i live. I'm not planning to repair my iMac due to huge costs. It's an old mac and not worth all that trouble. The data inside though is important. Thanks a lot!

Do as Jan suggested, put it in another external Firewire enclosure, then connect it to a working Mac and you should be able to see the data. If not, then the drive was fried at the same time the rest of the computer was.

  • How transfer calendar data from iPhone to imac?

    I lost all the data in my iMac calendar. The data exists in my iPhone. Is there a way to transfer the iPhone data to the iMac. I normally sync my iPhone to my iMac, but I'm not sure how to reverse the process.

    Transfer an In-App Purchase
    You can't sync or transfer non-renewing subscriptions and consumable In-App Purchase to another iOS device or Mac. You can transfer non-consumable In-App Purchases and auto-renewable subscriptions to another iOS device or Mac authorized with your iTunes Store account. For example, if you transfer a game from an iPhone to an iPod touch, only the game levels will sync, and the extra ammo and experience points won't transfer.

  • How to receive data from an external application

    In one of our requirements we would have to make use of the resume/suspend plug in Web Dynpro Abap. Would anyone happen to have any other information on this topic. Is there a sample program available which demonstrates the same?
    The requirement is that, I have to call an external window (output screen) from my present screen (input screen). While this external window is active, the calling window (input screen) should be disabled. When the external window (output screen) is closed the input screen should be enabled again. The external window returns a parameter list and this needs to be received by my application. I have read that suspend/resume plugs can be used for this. However, I have not been able to figure out how to use them.
    Additionally, is there any other approach for achieving the above functionality.

    Hello Hari,
    Refer these links for understanding the usage of suspend/resume plugs.

  • How to use sda6810 to receive data from a rs485 channel?

    I want to use sda6810 to anlyze data from a rs485 bus. So I use Labview to progame the sda6810 with the drivers.Firstly,I intilite the card,then I cofigued an channel to send data from a buffer,and configued another channel to receive data from the first chanel . But unfortunatly the data I received was not equal to the data I sended.And there are not any error messages indicated in Labview
    And when I try to use the GP channel,I found it worked properly.please tell me how I can solve the problem?

    I really apreciate your help.You told me that
    I should use the exameples which shipped with sda driver firstly. I do used them,and it worked correctly.So I think the connections was being setup properly.And I
    used labview to progame the rs485 channel
    . It do received something .But it was incorrect.
    I would be grateful if you could send me an
    example writted by labview,or you could tell

    How do I retrieve the data from my white iMac G5 that has a fried logic board? Can I do this myself? And if so how?

    Since the logic board is fried, you can perform a post-mortem yourself.
    Go to ifixit.com, and find the instructions to remove the HD.  NO warranty, and unit dead ... who cares if you crack the shell.
    Then buy an external enclosure from macsales.com such as this one (http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/FWU3ES2HDK/) or others you find by going to macsales.com and typing "enclosures" in the search box.  Ths will access the old drive as "external".

  • How to receive XML from Flex HTTP POST

    Hi,
    We curreontly have a setup where we have a FLEX frontend send an XML through a HTTP POST and awaiting a response also in XML. On the backend this is handled relatively simply by a PHP script that basically does the following:
    read data (in XML)from FlEX HTTP POST into a new temp XML file.
    execute a c++ program with the XML file as one of the parameter.
    return the result to FLEX
    We have decided to move to BlazeDS for various reasons.
    Looking at the examples bundled with BlazeDS they have a jsp example that returns an XML result to FLEX so that part is fine. I am trying to find an example of JSP (or Servlet) that is able to read the XML data from FLEX and write it into a temp XML file. I would then try to use runtime.exec to invoke a local C++ program to process the XML file the result of which will be sent back to FLEX.
    Any help will be very much appreciated!

  • When transferring data from my old iMac to a newer one do the old Apple apps like iWorks override the new versions installed on the newer computer?

    When transferring data from an older iMac to a newer iMac (refurbished) do the Apple applications like iWorks replace the ones on the newer  computer?
    I have read how to transfer data and using setup assistant but I am concerned about applications from Apple having the same names.

    As you likely know legacy apps that are PPC based will not migrate over. However the data files will. I would urge you to inventory the apps you have and their data files to see how important they are and then look app by app to see what app replacements are available. If you are using Office for Mac prior to the 2008 version you will need to get a new license of the app because the 2004 version was PPC based. The files will come over and are readable by newer version of Office for Mac (I recommend the 2011 version) and also readable by the iWorks apps (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) but those are different apps than Office and work differently and do not have all of the features of the MS Office apps. This is really only a issue if you share files with MS Office users, if you use them for personal work then iWork may be just fine for your needs.
