I have 2007 iMac intel, 10.4.1 with a crashed WD 2500JS boot drive. Bought a WD 3200E(AAX) which claims it is for Mac OS but documentation is unclear on WD site and plugs are different. It's SATA 7200, no instr. for boot inst.What is ideal replace?

After boot drive crash, I need to replace hard drive on 2007 Intel iMac running 10.4.1 (updating to Snow Leopard with Time Machine after replacement). There is a question not answered in lit. and docs about suitability of WD3200AAKS as replacement for WD2500JS for boot drive. The amps on the 5 and 12 VDC pins are very slightly different. Any body with a comment will help to minimize a problem with very bad timing! (When is a hd crash well-timed?!)

Thanks Kappy, the plugs are OK, just inset a little, so it looked different at first: My concern is the slightly different amperage of the 5 and 12 VDC pins, a very minor diff. not likely a problem. BTW, the little four wire cable with the tiny circuit that sticks to the side of the drive is a heat sensor that triggers the fan if it gets hot.

  • I have an iMac Intel  2 Duo with Mac 0SX Snow Leopard downloaded.  Can I upgrade to the new mountain lion

    I have an iMac Intel Core 2 Duo with Mac OSX Snow Leopard installed.  Would it be ok to download the new Mountain Lion?

    Your iMac needs to be a mid-2007 or newer model. See this page for specs supported, and assuming you meet them, you can upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion (see step 2 on the linked page).

    Hi Shawn,
    It sounds like the person who installed the hardware didn't install the software properly for you. You should reinstall this to get full functionality and control yourself.
    The process is easy:
    ) With the computer on, close all programs that are running and put the Creative CD-ROM into your computer's CD or DVD dri've. There are probably several disks; the one that you want should say 'Intallation and Applications CD' on the label.
    2) The Setup program should start automatically in a few moments, but if nothing happens, click your Start menu and choose Run..., then click the Browse button. From the 'Look In' drop-down menu, choose your CD/DVD dri've. In the list of files that appears, choose the one called Setup or Setup.exe.
    3) The Setup program will let you choose what to install. Choose to install everything. There might be two separate Setup processes that start after this: one for the soundcard's drivers, and one for the Creative MediaSource software. Within each process, when you are given the choice of Full, Custom, or Basic, select Full in each case. Follow the instructions in the programs and they will guide you through the setup process.
    IMPORTANT: you will likely be given the option to use digital output only to your speakers. Only select this if you have digital speakers, attached to the sondcard through only one digital cable. If your speakers are attached using several cables, you should use analog output.
    4) Once all of the Setup programs are completed, they will probably have you restart your computer.
    All of the above should have been done when the card was first installed, but it seems that whoever you paid to do the installation didn't bother with the software install.
    After this is all done, you should be able to use all of your speakers. If you are still having trouble, you will be able to follow the instructions that you were given before on how to enable CMSS.
    Good luck!

  • I have a macbook pro, and i want to transfer my hard drive from my macbook, but the display drivers and such are different.  How do i do this?

    I have a macbook pro, and i want to transfer my hard drive from my macbook (500g), but the display drivers and such are different.  How do i do this and is it possible?
    The Macbook Pro has Mac OS X 10.4.11 (70g hard drive)
    The Macbook has Mac OS X 10.6.8 (500g hard drive)

    The MacBook's hard drive lacks the necessary hardware drivers to boot the MacBook Pro even though it has a much newer OS on it; that's why simply moving it into the Pro doesn't work. Presumably you have a very old MB Pro, because only the very first MB Pro model (produced January to May 2006) was ever offered with an 80GB hard drive. Are you sure you want to move your big drive into such an old machine? The MacBook must be newer, because the first MacBook was introduced just as the first Pro model was discontinued.

  • I have 17inch imac intel 2006  can i use G5 screen number A1058 mine is A1173??

     

    I do not think so.
    While they may use the same basic 17" panel, the epoxied on mounting frames, inverters and connections are different.
    Also note: that the G5 dissembles from the back and that the Intel dissembles from the front.

  • Trigger Email to SC Requestor when SC Creator and Requestor are different

    Hi SRM Gurus,
    I need to trigger an email to SC Requestor when the SC Creator and Requestor are different.
    I searched in the forum but i couldn't get any details related to this.
    Please throw some light on this.
    Thank You.
    With Regards,
    P.Arunkumar

    Hi,
    A couple of approaches are possible:
    1) Incorporate the check into the approval-workflows. The information you need (both creator and requestor) are in the business-object (bus2121). This will require someone with knowledge of workflow, but it's not really all that difficult. Note that you use a notification-task and not a workitem to inform the requestor (you want them to get an email with info, not a workitem like an approver gets).
    Check out the workflow WS10400051 which is used at the end of all SC-workflows. It already contains checks on "sending mail" to approvers, reviewers etc. and a sub-workflow to generate mails to these agents. This would be an "easy" place to add your check and your mail-sending.
    2) Create a Z-copy of the BUS2121 and adapt the setreleased-function to handle sending the mail (less work but more invasive).
    If you have further questions, please report. I will check this thread in the coming time.
    If this helps you, please awards points.

  • I have an iMac(Intel) Desktop computer.  I cannot print anything as it is telling me that it is "offline" How do I start it working again?  My Lexmark Printer is in working order as I have just photocopied a document successfully.

    I have an iMac (Intel) Desktop computer.   It will not send a message to my Lexmark printer because it says  "offline".   My Lexmark printer is in working order as I have just successfully photocopied a document on it. 

    That message means that the computer cannot see the printer on its network.
    Is the printer directly connected to the computer with a USB cable, or is it a network printer (either wireless, or wired to the router with an Ethernet cable)?

    Not on your own. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put it back onto the card; they'll only do this if none of the balance has been spent.

    No, unless you break something or install the wrong RAM, new RAM is not covered by warranty/AppleCare of course.

  • I ordered my Macbook Air with Aperture two years ago. I now have an iMac - can I use that with Aperture in any way?

    I ordered my Macbook Air with Aperture two years ago. I now have an iMac - can I use that with Aperture in any way? I appreciate that it is a different computer but I am now the end user of both devices and I was just wondering if it was possible.
    Thanks,
    Sean

    The answer would be in your software license agreement for Aperture. However if you cannot locate it you can ask in the Aperture forum, the link for that is:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/professional_applications/aperture
    However I believe you can have Aperture installed on two machines however only one may be using it at a time.
    On the new iMac launch the Mac App Store - Purchased - look for Aperture and download to your new machine.
