I have a first gen Imac G5 20"   What is the proper airport card for this unit?  It didn't come with one

Can anyone tell me which wifi card will best support a first gen G5 20" imac?  I am trying to get my grandson's computer on a wifi net

So it should be this model
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac_g5_1.8_20.html
It has USB 2.0 and can run up to Mac OS X Leopard (10.5.8), so I think the best option is to use a USB WiFi adapter.  For example

I have an earlier version of the above product connecting my Power Mac G5 to my wireless network.  It actually has the "official" internal AirPort card, but it is only 802.11g (like the one for your iMac G5) and has less less range, so it is turned off.  The USB adapter goes up to 802.11n.

  • I have been filling up my internal memory on my laptop after years of video editing. I now want to export all this footage to an external hard drive. What is the proper way to do this.

    I have been filling up my internal memory on my laptop after years of video editing. I now want to export all this footage to an external hard drive. What is the proper way to do this.

    Are the videos being stored in iMovie or another application? Have you exported/shared the video? If the video is in iMovie what version of iMovie are you using? Give as much info as possible, and you may also want to post the question in the iLife section of this forum since more people with video skills will be reading the iLife/iMovie threads.

    what is the maximum allowable height for an internal hard drive. I want to replace my hard drive are there any other things I should make sure of in terms of compatability?

    they have to format it to make it mac "compatible", for a lack of better terms.  I don't know what they would do.

  • TS1935 I have the video card model . What is the best video card for a 1.6GHz PowerPC G5 please?

    Hello
    What is the best (most modern and reliable) video card (AGP) which will work in a 1.6GHz PowerPC G5 (mid 2003)?
    I believe I have ATY,RV350, and according to the attached article, it may be causing video start up problems.
    Thank you
    Adam

    Hi Adam,
    See japamacs page here on the best AGP cards for G4s & G5s...

  • What's the best video card for both Premiere and AE on an iMac?

    I remember seeing that one card works great with Premiere but then AE doesn't like it as much for 3D.
    I have Premiere CC but only CS5 for AE. I might subscribe to AE CC if it's worth it.

    We love it when people want us to guess what video card and other items you have .... price is no object of course right.... and you want CUDA? so that means a GTX this time instead of what you have (5770 upgrade? no, the original 2600XT that really should have been ditched long ago).
    Yosemite also makes more demands on the GPU.
    The GTX 680 Mac Edition EVGA would be the first, though people are using even newer graphic cards in the Nvidia line.
    New Nvidia GTX 970 and 980 - cMP?  (  1 2 3 4 5 6)

  • Do you have to pay for Pages if it didn't come with the computer?

         I just got my computer just this night, and I realized that it didn't have pages or keynote.  My dad and I have been trying to look online for a download, but only saw the one at the app store for $20 for only pages.  I don't know if I would have to send it in for them to install pages for free?  Or if I could just use google docs, and put the document on my iCloud.

    Did you buy the computer new? If you did, then those apps should have come pre-installed. If you bought a pre-owned computer then yes you have to pay for the apps.

  • Resetting the SMU on first gen iMac

    Okay so I've been having some apparent overheating problems with my iMac G5 and in a previous post I was told to reset the SMU. Since I have a first gen iMac I know that there is a button to push somewhere inside my comp. Does anyone know where it is? All I can find directions for are the newer iMac models.

  • I have a 3rd gen iPod touch and I downloaded the most recent itunes, ever since I did, only the first song syncs to the ipod. As soon as it gets to the second, it xtill says its syncing. However, nothing happens. How do I fix this?

    I have a 3rd gen iPod touch and I downloaded the most recent itunes, ever since I did, only the first song syncs to the ipod. As soon as it gets to the second, it still says its syncing. However, nothing happens. How do I fix this? I have restored and updated the ipod. I have the new iTunes. I have restarted my computer checked the connection and everything.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    I have a First Gen IPad with IOS 4.3.2. It let's me manage my music and videos together in playlists.  Need a larger capacity IPAD, that allows me to manage playlists the same way. Need direction or help!
    Can't seem to find an IPAD that let's me control my playlists together...or let's me organize my videos (Karaoke) the way I want to.  Can someone help or direct me?
    Can't even find the old IPad for sale...I have a MB292LL with 4.3.2 (8H7)

    Here is a hint, google:
    ipad video playlists
    Found:
    This discusses some options.
    iOS 7 took away the ability to play videos continuously.
    Two stand-alone apps.

    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/joobik-video-playlist-player/id502325425?mt=8
    There was a hint of relabeling your videos to music video so you can use the itunes video playlists.
    I have not tried this.

  • I have a first gen iPad, and it will randomly go home from the Internet when I don't press any button.  I have a wireless connection at home.

    I have a first gen iPad, and it will randomly go home from the Internet when I don't press any button.  I have a wireless connection at home.  Is this a known bug?  What can I do?

    You maybe running low on memory since you are using the original iPad with iOS 5.1.1 and the iPad is crashing. This may help and it certainly won't hurt.
    Quit all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Do this before you launch Safari again. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data. You don't have to clear the history.

  • Have a first gen ipad. Can't download version 5.1 because iTunes 11.1 need to be downloaded. Cannot download version of iTunes. " errors occured while installing updates. if the problem persists choose tools download only and try installing manually"

    Have a first gen iPad with 4.3 IOS. Can't download version 5.1 because iTunes 11.1 need to be downloaded. Cannot download version of iTunes. " errors occured while installing updates. if the problem persists choose tools>download only and try installing manually". This is as far as I can get. Can't find tools to manually download. When I try to reset to factory settings, I get an error also.

    Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:
