Imac glass broken

Is it possible to replace the glass on an Imac?

Yes, take it to an Apple Store. Note that if this is accidental damage it is not covered by AppleCare.

  • Trying to wipe the hard drive on a G5 iMac, using an external DVD drive as the one in the iMac is broken.

    I'm trying to boot up with the OS (or install) disk, from an external DVD drive as the one in the iMac is broken. When the computer boots up, my normal desktop appears, but also the Mac OSX (Tiger) install disk. When I double-click on the "Install Mac OSX" icon, a screen comes up that says: "Click the button below to restart & begin the install process". The iMac restarts, but just goes back to where it was, & I'm prompted to:  "Click the button below to restart & begin the install process".
    So far there is no way to "begin the install process", I just keep going around in circles with this. I'm doing this so I can sell the computer. I hope I've made it clear, and TIA for any advice.

    I looked at the disk utility erase option.  The wording looked a little vague.  Seemed to me to erase all the disk  including the data if you pick one pass, but I am not sure.
    but that is contradicted when you see you have to pick the correct option.

  • Twice frontal glass broken on Iphone 5

    Hello,
    I'm an "old" user of Iphone ... 3S, 4, 5 .... on this last one for two times I've broken the frontal glass... never happened with older models
    Honestly in the first time I have nothing to say because unfortunately my phone fell down bumping the frontal glass on a small stone (from an height of about 1 meter from my pants pocket) and the glass has broken
      .... but in the second case it fallen down on the back face on a plate surface always from an height of 1 meter and in this second situation my phone was also protected a little bit in a gum cover
    I choose again APPLE product and especially this model without considering equivalent models of other competitors also for roughness (saw a lot of demo video on the web) but I'm very disappointed from the reality ....
    I payed twice (220 Euro each time) the replacement with 2 new phone becuse glass broken ae not under guarantee but for this second situation I don't agree with the policy of APPLE and I espect from them at least a commercial action to me because this second payed replacement is absolutely unaccetable ....

    Put it in a case such as then Otterbox Defender, and stop dropping it. Why should Apple be responsible for your dropping a valuable device made mostly of glass?

  • What is best to wash/clean iMac glass screen cover?

    I have used Glass Cleaner to clean smudges/finger prints off my iMac glass screen cover.  I keep getting swipe marks instead of a sparkeling clean screen.  Anybody have a better product?

    Water only applied to a damp cloth per your owner's manual:

    (I use a micro-fiber cloth slightly dampened with water on my iMac with streak-free results)

    You'll have to get it serviced by Apple, you'll have to pay for the replacement device:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    You can also search for a 3rd party repair company in the Internet.

  • Nokia N72 Front Panel Shield Glass Broken

    My Nokia N72 Front Panel Shield Glass Broken.
    Could you please advice how it can be repaired & how much it should cost me for an original shield at Nokia Care center in Pune, India.

                                  Only that Nokia Service centres/Priority Dealers in India are all third party private dealers and charge a bomb for a simple service or spare part.
                                  I had a screen for a Nokia 2865 replaced some time back in a local mobile phone service centre and the price of doing the same in an authorised centre was 5 or 6 times higher than that.
     Nokia wants to fleece customers by not giving them basic information about how customers can service their mobiles themselves. By the way, please mail me in case anybody has a service manual for a 2865 mobile.

  • Help with installing OSX Lion on iMac with broken display

    Hi,
    Having some trouble installing OSX Lion on my 5 year old iMac which has a broken display.
    The display has been dead for a couple of years now and I've been using an external monitor without any problems. Today I decided to upgrade to Lion - I downloaded the installer from the App Store and started the install which rebooted the machine. After reboot I'm presented with a grey 'thatched' background image on the external display and nothing else, no menu bar, installation menu etc.
    I presume the internal display is showing the menu I need but I can't see it as that screen is broken. Is there a way to turn on mirroring during the install process so I can use my external display? I've tried various shortcuts held down during startup - OPTION-F14, CMD-F1, CMD-F2 - but none have worked.
    If this isn't possible, is there a way to abort the Lion install process and go back to using my Snow Leopard install? Whenever I boot the machine I am taken to the OS X Lion installer and don't know how to get back to my Snow Leopard install. I tried holding down OPTION key on startup to choose the list of available OS installs, but again, the internal display is being used so I can't see what to do.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Genius idea, thank you. Was able to step through the install procedure using voiceover and the screenshots on this page http://www.macstories.net/mac/os-x-lion-installation-guide-boot-discs-and-qa/
    Definitely a first for me, installing an OS with voice only

  • Installing OSX on 24" iMac with broken Display

    Hi,
    I have a 24" iMac but the Screen is broken. It still worked with a external Display connected via MiniDVI but now i would like to install OSX 10.6. The problem is that I can't get the Installation to show on the external Display and I can't see what I'm (supposed to be) doing on the iMac's screen. With the DVD inserted it boots up like this (I can't even get the DVD out now):
    Is there a working Shortcut (I tried cmd+F7 and cmd+F1) or other way to install without the main screen or is there at least a way to retrieve the DVD?

    If you had another Mac you could do a remote install to the iMac 24".

  • 24" iMac glass permanently damaged by condensation

    I have a 24" iMac purchased in August of 2007. In 2008, I left the computer off for a few days while I was on vacation. When I turned the computer on there was a large amount of condensation on the inside of the screen. Just as I started to panic, it burned off and only left some small marks. Because the marks were small and I live in Macau (where there is no Apple service) I decided to just live with it.
    Over the past two years the markings have started to grow and now cover about 60% of the screen. It's hard to describe the marks. They're long diagonal grayish lines. Because they appear to have some kind of shadowing going on, I think they're on the glass and not the actual LCD screen.
    I have uploaded an image which can be seen here: http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/8754/dsc02127.jpg
    I would like to know what kind of DIY options I may have. I've read some other threads saying the glass can be taken off with suction cups but I'm not sure what to do after that. Should I leave the glass off? Can I clean the glass and re-install it? Is there a way to order and install new glass? Or should I avoid removing the glass and try something else altogether?

    There is a video on the MacOSG YouTube channel that will show you how to remove and replace the iMac screen. Look for the "How to install a hard drive in an aluminum iMac" video.

  • IMac displays "broken apple" at startup

    When I booted up my iMac this morning, I got the usual apple logo, then the spinner appeared beneath it and then this showed up:
    I tried to reboot it a few times with lond pauses in-between and it keeps happening.
    To me it looks like the GPU is fried. Any other ideas?

    I think I managed to get into Safe Mode but it does not look good:

    Btw, the broken parts are slightly filckering.

  • IMac holder broken

    My 2012 iMac holder has an issue. I can't adjust the screen anymore. I guess the inner part of the holder was broken. Any thought? It's out of warranty now

    This is a known problem, take it to the local Apple Store and they will cover it.

  • 24" iMac glass, is it all the same?

    I have been looking into ordering a replacement glass panel for my 24" early 2009 iMac. I have noticed that most of the vendors selling the glass list it as being compatible with Mid 2007 & Early 2008. Glass listed as being specifically for the Early 2009 seems to be much less plentiful and somewhat more expensive. Just based on what I see in the pictures, all the glass seems to be the same, as far as pin location is concerned. So, would I be okay ordering any 24" glass?

    Hi juggalette8!
    Actually, probably the best thing to do in this kind of situation would be to just download the latest version of iTunes (7.1.1), and not stay at a previous version (like 4.7), which requires a standalone iPod Updater to be installed, as well.
    With iTunes 7, you don't need a separate iPod Updater anymore - the restoring and iPod-firmware-updating features are now integrated right into iTunes, with no need for anything else.
    To download the latest version of iTunes, go here:
    Download iTunes - 7.1.1.5

  • Rear glass broken of iPhoneS

    I purchased iPhone 4s recently from India and it is under warranty. My iPhone 4s rear glass is broken but the phone is working perfectly fine. So how much I need to pay to get it repaired/replaced in India?

    Not sure what the prices are in India, but in the US the replacement cost for the rear panel is $29.  Contact your authorized service provider in India for your local prices.
