Hard to help without knowing which variant of iMac you have. They've been in continuous production since 1998 in four major families, and what works for one familiy of iMac may not work to diagnose one from another family.
Doing "About ths Mac" will show the processor info. Post what it says about your processor (and Mac OS version while you are there) and that will narrow what family of iMac you have.
This forum section is for the three iMac families made before 2006.

My screen has greens and black lines going down the middle an I can't access anything. What could be wrong? It happened all the sudden.
You're welcome! I feel your pain - both "closest" Apple Stores to me are almost 2 hours away. When I called for another problem under warranty the AppleCare guy checked my zip code and found an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) 20 minutes from me I had no idea existed. They diagnosed the problem (bad bluetooth keyboard) and ordered a new one for me. The AppleCare person will probably use this http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/ so you can check it now. And AppleCare could well diagnose your problem over the phone anyway. And I feel certain it wasn't something you did inadvertently.

Why is there a shadowed line running down the middle of my browsing window?
All of a sudden there's a shadowed line running down the middle of my browsing pane. It does not show up in other programs, and I've closed and started the browser several times and it won't disappear. It starts at the top and continues down vertically about 3/4 of the way down the pane and is a little to the left of center.
If you did not purchase AppleCare yes your warranty has expired, the warranty is for 12 months.
You can take the machine to any Apple Store or AASP to be check out. You can use the following to locate either:

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

You can do it at an Apple store by making an appointment:

Why does my I pad have a snowy line going across the middle?
Why does my I pad have a snowy line going across the middle?
I do not really know but try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release].

My iPad 2 randomly had a line going down the screen when I switched it on today, does anyone know why this is or how to get rid of it ?
Hello there, Adavidson137.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some great clarification on display anomalies:

The following steps for troubleshooting iPhone display issues can also be useful for your iPad as well:

Display image issues
This can include bright or dark pixels, lines in video, or sections of video missing.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Verify the issue is not content related, by viewing different content.
If the image is too dark, adjust the brightness. In General Settings choose Brightness and Wallpaperand slide the slider.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

I have a dead thunder bug, right in the middle of my screen and it's dead!!
I have a dead thunder bug, right in the middle of my screen and it's dead!! It's so annoying - what can I do? How the **** did it get in there.
Uhm. It crawled in there? Strange.
If your laptop is still under warranty then bring it to an apple store. This way they will take it apart for you and you wont be voiding your warranty.
If it's not under warranty, you could bring/call a apple store and see if they will do it for free. -

I have lines running dow the middle of my monitor when I boot up. It seems as though it takes time for the pixels to "warm up" because it eventually goes away, but is there anything that I can do to fix this besides purchase a whole new computer?

Why is there a black transparent line going all the way round my screen?
I don't know what it is and don't know how to get rid of it. PLZ HELP. Much apreciated.
Hi AaronDuncan,
Looking into your issue a bit more, I am wondering if you have a Hot Corner set up in Mission Control set to show Desktop. See this article -
OS X Mavericks: Mission Control preferences
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13925
If you click on the Hot Corners button, one of the corners may be labeled Desktop. Go back to that corner to revert to the normal display, without the line around it.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

My ipod 5 screen flickers down the middle of my screen
i bought my ipod 5th gen back in december. it mostly sits in my car and charges off of my aftermarket cd player. occasionally when it dies ill take it inside and charge it on my wall charger. today it died and i plugged it inside for 2 hours and it would still not turn on. finally when i got it to turn on there is about a 1 inch wide bar flickering from the top to the bottom of the ipod. its not turning black or white its just flickering brighter to lighter. the ipod touch 5 doesnt have auto brightness so i dont know whats going on, please reply if you had this problem and fixed it.
Since it will still be in warranty, I would recommend a visit to the Genius Bar. They will tell you what the issue is here and should have you sorted. http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/gb/en/techsupport/ Your iPod should not be doing what it is doing and also remember to tell them about everything you have stated here. I have included a link to make a reservation above.
Cheers,
Khal
