I need to purchase a power cord for my intel based 27" iMac.  I have had it for almost 2 years, I don't have apple care and I don't want to take it in to the genius bar. I know it's the power cord and I just want to purchase one.

iMacs take generic power cords. If it fits into the back of the iMac and an electrical socket, it'll work.
Good luck.

  • Aperture ate my picture files and they are not recoverable.  The guy at the Genius Bar told me to Trash the App, empty Trash, then go to Purchases and reinstall.  But Purchases says it is "Installed" so it does not let me download it again.  HELP!!!!

    I typed Aperture into Spotlight and sure enough it did show up.
    It looks like it is supposed to be in Apps.
    But it is not there.
    So I clicked on the spotlight Aperture and it opened up the App!!!!
    But I do not know where it is to move it!
    How can I find it?
    While Aperture is running and you are seeing it in the Dock, ctrl-click (or right click) the Dock icon.
    You will see a contextual menu. Click on "Options", then select "Show in Finder".
    And check the "keep in Dock" mark, so you will not lose it from the Dock.

    I have called the store with the same problem but the answer is this must be done on line. I was told to use a different browser but it has made no difference - I am still having the same problem

  • I have lines going on my screen, when i went into the apple store the guy at the genius bar was clueless as to the problem. i havent dropped it. help?

    hello, i have a line growing on my screen that is getting worse. it looks like a centipede. i have been to the apple store and the guy i spoke to had no idea what was causing it. the phone still works but i am concerned that it is getting bigger. any help?

    OK. so it's not dead pixels.  How old is the phone? (some carriers will allow an upgrade more frequently than once a year... if it's less than a year old, the genius should have just replaced it for you, so I'm guessing it's not under warranty any more. I know the out of warranty price for an iPhone 4 is $199. Don't know if that applies to the 3Gs as well off hand.
    A quick google search looks like you can get the parts and replace the display assembly or have it repaired for you (which I would think would be the smarter option) for between $50 and $100.
    I know NOTHING about the company this link leads to, but the price seems reasonable... Do your homework first. If it gets to the point where it's unacceptable to you, I'd check into it. http://www.iphone3gscreenrepair.com/product_info.php?products_id=108

  • HT4500 The Genius Bar wiped my hard drive (10.7.2) and I have since been unable to restored the backup from my Time Machine

    I followed these steps from this article;
    In Finder, press Command-Shift-U.
    Double-click Migration Assistant.
    Click "Continue" and enter an administrator name and password when prompted.
    Select the "From a Time Machine backup or other disk" option, then click "Continue".
    Select your Time Machine backup disk or Time Capsule (enter the user name and or password if prompted), then click "Continue".
    Having selected the correct disk nothing happened, other than the word "connecting" appeared. After some time this also appeared. "The backup disk image “/Volumes/Ross Backup Data/Ross’s iMac.sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1)". I tried both with the Time achine connected wirelessly and via Ethernet, with the same result.
    Select the Time Machine backup you would like to restore (such the most current one you just made), then click "Continue".
    Select Items to Migrate, then click "Continue".  Note: The "Continue" button will be dimmed until the "Calculating…" stage is complete.
    Any ideas please?

    How big is your Time Machine image? If it's really big (eg, several hundred gigs), it can take a lot of time to calculate the time needed to restore it onto your Mac. This said, I'm still on SL, so maybe you have to reinstall Lion from the restore partition first, then migrate your personal stuff from the Time Machine image.
    Additionally, you'd be better served if you posted this thread in the Lion part of the forum...

  • I have a six months old iPhone 5s, it discharges the battery in 1/2 day without extensive use, 5 trips to the Genius Bar to no avail... Frustrated.. Ready to get rid of the phone, very disappointed in apple support!!

    I have a six months old iPhone 5s that I use and have to use for work purposes, I have for a approximate battery life of seven or eight hours.
    I went to the Genius Bar on five occasions and did not receive substantial help. I was told that I would have some applications crashing in the background but was unable to be told which ones they were. The phone is still on the warranty, but it's Apple tells me that it is not the hardware but my usage. I compared it to some of my colleagues and none of them has a battery problem like I do. I feel like I am left with a product that is not stand up to its specifications, and as a customer being totally left alone with a smart phone that does not even last through a workday. Any suggestions how to get through to Apple with this?? I was always very impressed with Apple's customer service and care up until now, obviously. Now Im ready to jump ship...

    Thought it had worked but soon found out it had not.
    after further days of trying finally, solved it for me Yesterday.
    turned off notifications when locked, and bingo, wow.
    i have not turned off iCloud but location services are also off.
    best thing to do I found was keep checking your usage, settings, general, usage, and flip down to bottom, if the standby and usage are similar there is a problem, if there is a big difference then all is ok. Just keep turning things off and on until the difference is very apparent.
    something on my phone was keeping the phone alive even when turned off, and I think this was the phone repeatedly trying to update continually.
    to me this is definitely down to the iOS, my wife has exactly same phone and iOS but hers doesn't have any problem and the battery lasts for days.
    the guy at the Genius Bar told me to restore the phone via iTunes, not iCloud. This is because iCloud remembers the exact info from your phone and simply reinstates it when you restore, and this includes the iOS too.
    when I get home from holidays that's what I'll do, or wait for iOS 8 in few weeks. But I'm so pleased I finally made it work, I was beginning to think ditch the phone and buy Samsung.
    anyway anyone out there please try my final solution and let me know if it works for you?

  • I suddenly have 2 people i never met and don't know showing up as 'shared' on my computer.  this may have happened when i visited the genius bar with wifi but i can't seem to delete these 2 strangers.

    I visited the genius bar at my mac store two weeks ago and now I notice two people I don't know are showing up as SHARED on my computer.  This is really disturbing to me as I don't know if these people have access to my computer.  Could this have happened because of the WIFI at the computer store?  There are so many people there at once could it be this accidentally happened?  AND HOW DO I GET RID OF THESE SHARED PEOPLE?  I've tried to find a way to delete them but I can't find anything that allows that.  Also can't 'drag' them to the trash.  PLEASE HELP.  Thanks.

    They don't have any access to your computer. They were picked up on your Wi-Fi. If they are not currently being detected, then hold down the COMMAND key and drag the entries out of the sidebar.

  • Apple video tutorials at the Genius Bar

    Somewhere on the Apple web site they recently had four short quicktime tutorials with a guy at the genius bar explaining how to use the dictionary in Pages, who to set the colors in Keynote and several other topics. I cannot find them!! I have searched and searched. Hard to believe that they would be removed so quickly.
    Also several months ago they had a little video explaining how to print from a mac when you are on a windows server, it was excellent but now I cannot find it.
    Does anyone know where these are hiding???

    There are quite a few more than four video tips.

  • I need a copy of the tech report from the genius bar for my insurance but never received one. Can I get a copy?

    As it says in the title, my 8 month old (reconditioned) 4S needed replaced. I took it to the genius bar but they didn't give me a report only sold me a replacement. I need a copy of the report for my insurance company. Can I get a copy via my apple ID? Help appreciated!

    You'll have to either call AppleCare...they'll have a record, or go back to the Genius bar where your phone was replaced.

  • How long does it take to replace battery in an built-in macbook pro Intel Core 2 Duo 2009? Can I wait for it at the Genius bar or could I do it myself?

    My macbook pro shows that I have to replace the battery, but I dont want to leave it at the apple service centre and would like to take it with me after replacement of the battery. Is this a quick action at genius bar? or should I try to replace it myself?
    I currently switches off even when it's on normal charger and plugged in. Why would it switch off without the having a battery even when it's connected to via power?

    To replace the battery takes about 10-15 minutes.   (I have taken it out and put it back in) 
    However Apple will not sell you the battery, they will insist on installing it themselves.  In addition, you do need a #0 Triwing driver to take out the battery.  Not an easy tool to find in your local hardware store.

    Is this the MBP?  If so, mention that to the genius bar technician when you have the battery replaced.
    Ciao.

    What is it you need - Windows installer disc or something else?  Your question is unclear.  Could you be more specific?

  • How long does it take for the Genius Bar to replace the bottom case of my Macbook?

    I bought this Macbook on Christmas Eve '09 and by last year summer, the bottom casing was peeling off and I now know that Apple is replacing macbook bottom cases free of charges regardless of warranty status. What I would like to know is, if I take it to the Genius Bar, would I have to wait for more than a day? Or would it take as much as one hour?

    I would say that it depends on the store.  I would give your local Apple store a call and ask them.  If they have the parts in store I believe you'll be in an out as long as you make an appointment.

  • I am still running OS x 10.5.8 what is the next step up and the easiest way to get it. Does the Genius bar have the capability to get me to the most recent software if I take my Imac in

    I am still running OS x 10.5.8 what is the next step up and the easiest way to get it. Does the Genius bar have the capability to get me to the most recent software if I take my Imac in

    iMac G5 - you are at the end of the line, though you may be able to upgrade your RAM, or hard drive.
    iMac CoreSolo, CoreDuo - you can upgrade to 1 GB of RAM or 2 GB of RAM and get up to 10.6.8.
    iMac Core2Duo - you can upgrade to 2 GB of RAM or more and get up to 10.7.2.
    Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to determine which Mac model you have.
    Here's what you have to watch out for on 10.6 to 10.6.8.
    Here's what you need to watch out for on 10.7 to 10.7.2.
    Some stores may not have 10.6 installer CD available, or may not have 10.7 Flash drive available.  For those you have to make the purchase from elsewhere,
    and bring it in to the store with you.  http://www.apple.com/retail has phone numbers for all their stores, and extension 5 often will get you a real person at the store, though if yuo don't get it, you might try a different extension.

  • Will the Genius Bar install Snow Leopard and Aperture 3 for me...?

    I have an iMac 20" Core 2 Duo with Leopard. RAM is maxed at 3GB. All my data is backed up on a external HDD using Time Machine.
    I need upgrade to Snow Leopard in order to get Aperture 3 (which I need in order to read RAW photos from my new camera).
    Anyway, ever since I upgraded to Leopard I haven't been thrilled with my iMac's performance (I did the quick upgrade instead of the complete rebuild). So I want to wipe it clean this time and start over with a fresh install of Snow Leopard. The iMac is 3 years old now, so I think it's time for a fresh start.
    I'm not comfortable doing this myself. Will the Genius Bar do this for me? I'm happy to buy the Snow Leopard and Aperture upgrades. But will the Genius Bar charge me? Or will they do it for free since I paid them already for the software?
    Thanks for your help!

    I do not know if they would do that or not; I believe there is a maximum time limit for a Genius Bar appointment and these kinds of installs may take longer than that. And, it is truly easy to do; your performance problems may not have had anything to do with the OS, but possibly some incompatible third party software or some other corruption. So, I'm not trying to change your mind, but if you want to try it yourself, there are a lot of people here who'd be able to walk you through it.
    Now, another idea: did you know that iPhoto supports RAW formats? You can find many help articles like this one by going to Apple support and typing iPhoto RAW into the search field:
