IMac screen will not come on after sleep

iMac screen does not come on after sleeping for a period of time - twice now from overnight. The back seems to be warm. I have to hold the on button until I hear the drive and system shut down. Then after period of time it will start just fine. ?????

I know that some of the older imacs had overheating problems that caused unexpected sleep. try to keep the display darker and keep the room not too hot. That seems to usually solve the issue.

Imac Intel will not boot up - 3 days old, light on, starts to spin...

I got an Imac Intel 20" from my husband on mother's day and it now will not turn on!! White light comes on, sounds like it is trying to boot and then nothing... blank screen, no beeps - have unplugged and restarted, tried a million key combination from the forums and still nothing... locked up once on "Garage?" software (according to son)... worked for 2 days...
Very dissapointed and sad... husband looking like the PC is still a better box even after breaking down and getting the Imac - can't help much because this is all new to him...
Help!

If you bought your imac with a credit card anywhere in your home state(or within 100 miles of your home in another state), then you can return it within 30 days if you are unsatisfied. That is federal law, and a store cannot do anything to deprive you of those rights--no matter what they say (or what they print on the receipt under your signature). My Apple store tried to tell me they only allow returns for 2 weeks. I told them the were violating federal law and they were required to issue a credit for the amount of the return, and they reluctantly complied.
I believe credit card companies are now required to print those rules on your bill (mine does and I don't think it would do so voluntarily), so you can check the fine print on your last bill and read them.
So, if you meet the above requirements, take your imac back . Insist on a refund. Be firm. If the retail person won't do it, tell them you want to speak to a manager. Once they credit your account, walk up to another retail person and tell them you want to buy a 20" imac.
If the retailer won't credit your account, then call your credit card company, and tell them you tried to return a defective product within the 30 day limit that you bought in your home state, and you would like them to reverse the charges.

IMac (intel) will not reboot

After downloading the 10.4.7 update, installing it and rebooting, I came back to the crashed screen that asked me to restart the machine. Since then, I have tried to reboot it, but it just sits at the white apple screen. What should I do?
I know I can probably boot up from disc or from an external hard drive, but how do I get the machine back to working conditions?

I suspect that you need to perform disk repair (not permissions) using a version of Disk Utility/First Aid from a booted disc or disk different than the one with the issue.
Another possibility could be the need for a SMC reset:

Imac i5 will not power on

My intel based iMac i5 will not power on today.
It worked fine last night.
I tried to turn it on and I got the chime but nothing else. No sounds or display.
I attempted to reset smc with no resolve.
At one point after resetting I did get the fan to come on. The fan would run continually until hitting power botton.
Now I hit power button and Nothing.
I have had this unit since last December with no issues.
Any Help would be appreciated.

You could try a PRAM reset:
Reset PRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P and R.
You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
If that doesn't help, try a 'safe boot' - restart holding down the shift key until you see the progress bar. If it boots, restart normally from the Apple menu.

My bluetooth keyboard (Macnus 3.0) is recognised by my iMac but will not pair? I have paired it with my iPad using code 8310 but it still will not pair with my iMac. Can someone help please?

My bluetooth keyboard (Macnus brand - bought recently in Thailand)(similar to Mac small keyboard) will pair with my iPad using code 8310,and is recognized by my iMac but will not pair?
There are very scant instructions with the keyboard and no mention of any code (the code was prompted by my iPad).
I have followed the instructions but it still will not pair with my iMac!
Can anyone help please?
My iMac is 20 inch Mid 2007 OSX10.9.1 4GB RAM

Hi All, thank you for you suggestions. I have been unable to find any website for the maker, but have looked at several Thai/cambodian sites incl <http://www.buycoms.com/Article/8435/index.asp> which mentions the keyboard being suitable for tablet or windows. No mention of iMac! although the box is branded to indicate Mac compatable.
I'm thinking that maybe it just will not pair with an iMac.
Ill keep looking for the maker website, which might come on later in the future? maybe?
thanks again.

Hi Robby62,
please do report back.
Also, after you have successfully installed the BootCamp Drivers from the Leopard DVD (which are version 2.0, btw.) you might want to download the 2.1 version update here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/bootcampupdate21 forwindowsvista32.html
The update also has to be installed while in Windows.
Have Fun

Imac OS10 will not update photoshop CS2

How to update photoshop CS2 / iMac OS10 will not support

Exactly what version of Mac OS 10 do you have?
And, if Photoshop is not supported, you will need to update/upgrade/pay for a new version of Photoshop. CS2 has not been supported since Snow leopard I believe (10.6):

My iPhone would just randomly give me a blue screen and then restart--did that a bunch of times between Tuesday and last night. As of last night, it WILL NOT come back on. iTunes says it's in recovery mode....what does all of this mean???

Tuesday night I was texting a friend and when I went to open her message, my screen went blue and restarted. I just wrote it off as weird and went on about my business. Later that night, I tried to turn on my phone and it would not turn on. I plugged it up, held down the power button, and pressed the home button all numerous times. I looked online and it said to do a "hard reset" by holding down the power and home button at the same time--my phone then came on. Throughout Wednesday, it would give me a blue screen and restart--nothing major just really annoying. I took it to the local Verizon store where I bought the phone from and he said that it was some type of hardware defect and I was still under my year warranty so I could get a new one for free--the free phone won't be here until tomorrow, Saturday. I took it home and it didn't give me any trouble for a couple of hours. The next day it was cooperating and then I left town for a little while and it acted up (blue screen and then restarting) a few times. When I got home, it acted up again and so I restarted the phone and it was working fine. A few minutes later, I tried to check my messages and the phone was off again. No matter what I do, my phone will not come back to life. It had at least 45% battery last time I looked at it. I decided to plug the phone up to my computer and see what it did--my computer recognizes that there is a phone hooked to it and it says that it's in "recovery mode". It also said that if I'm having issues with my phone, that I need to reset the phone via iTunes. I guess the questions that arise are
1. Why is my phone doing this?
2. If I reset my phone, will it go back to working again? I ask that because I don't want Verizon to charge me $300 when they send me the replacement phone and I won't need it (assuming that the phone decides to work once it's been reset).
3. What type of hardware defect is this that is causing this issue, not only with my iPhone 5S but others as well?
4. Shouldn't people be notifying Apple and letting them know that they need to fix this issue?
5. Should I report this issue to Apple even though I didn't buy the phone directly from them, but through Verizon?
Any help that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated! This whole situation has me stressed out and seriously confused.

Itunes will not come up on my computer

itunes will not come up on my screen. It shows up in windows task manager. When I click on the desktop icon, it flashes off then back on again, but itunes doesn't come up. Quick-time comes up when I click on the icon. itunes shows 44,540 on the Mem Usage column on the Process tab of Windows task Manager. I don't know what to do next. When I click on a song from my "My Music" folder under itunes library, it won't play. I'm out of ideas

If itunes.exe stays in task manager there are a few things to try. Easiest one is to start itunes and hold down the shift key until iTunes starts. Choose "Create new library" when prompted.
If itunes.exe just flashes briefly in task manager, I believe in the past that indicates malware on your PC.

Hey erinoneill24,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sounds like you can't update your device. You don't mention an error that it gives you. Take a look at both of these articles to troubleshoot.
iPod displays "Use iTunes to restore" message

If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808?viewlocale=de_DE_1
If you started your device in recovery mode by mistake, restart it to exit recovery mode. Or you can just wait—after 15 minutes the device will exit recovery mode by itself.
Have a nice day,
Mario

I can't get home sharing to turn on on my computers. I have a PC running windows XP that has a large library on it that I want to access from a newer windows 7 PC. I have turned home sharing on in both, same apple ID. I just will not come up. Any ideas?
