Late 2009 iMac 27 monitor died

I have a late 2009 iMac 27.
1. Over the summer, the monitor would go black (but the computer kept working) if the room got too warm. I bought a fan, end of problem.
2. A month ago, the monitor would go black if the brightness exceeded 1/3 (but the computer kept working).
3. I took it to the local Apple repair shop and they changed the graphics card. Nothing.
4. They said I need a new monitor, about $800.
Again, the monitor works, just not over a certain brightness.
I hope the problem might be some less expensive part that serves the monitor, but, what do I know.
I'm in Korea and a new 27 Mac would cost about $2400.
Thanks.

  • Can I run 2 monitors off late 2009 iMac 27

    My late 2009 iMac 27 monitor just died. But the computer works fine.
    I am addicted to using two monitors. The back of the iMac has a Thunderbolt port and a Firewire port.
    The Thunderbolt port is now running an external monitor.
    1. Is there a way that the Firewire port could be used to run another external monitor?
    2. Could a USB to VGA cable support a second monitor?
    3. Is there any way to run a second monitor?
    Thanks.

    Yup, that's really all you need to do - it's that simple. Once the monitor is connected and showing your extended desktop, go to System Preferences - Dsplays - Arrangement, and you'll see two blue rectangles representing the monitors. Drag them into the configuration you'd like (eg, aligned left/right) and you can drag the white menu bar across into the other rectangle to make the new monitor your primary (where you see dock and menus) if you'd prefer.

  • Late 2009 imac as second monitor

    Hello, I just purchased a new iMac retina 27 inch. I am trying to use my late 2009 iMac 27 inch as a second display using a mini display port. I can get it to work my old cheap second monitor, but when I try the 2009 mac, and I press command F2, it shows the options to set up as a second monitor on the new retina mac but then after a few seconds the options disappear and they go back to being separate monitors. Just wondering if anyone has been able to make this work as I'd hate to have to sell my 2009 mac. Thanks in advance.

    You're starting in Target Disk Mode not Target Display Mode. Follow these instructions:
    Make sure both computers are turned on and awake.  (This is where you're going wrong)
    Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer.
    Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM.
    Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2.

  • Late 2009 imac with dead LCD; external monitor?

    Hello, all
    I need some help.  The LCD on my late 2009 iMac has failed.  I took it into the Apple Store and they told me it was dead and it would be $500+ to replace it, which I do not have.
    The machine is intact, however, other than that!  The Apple Store rep even told me that they tried it with an external monitor, to validate that the video card is working, and it worked fine.  Great news!
    My question, however, is how do I get it to boot to an external monitor?
    I have booted the mac in target disk mode, booted from that target disk on another mac, and changed the settings so that the display is mirrored onto a second monitor.  When I boot into the iMac, however, I get the Apple Logo and the "white screen of death" and the machine never finishes loading using the external monitor.  I need to know if there is some way to force it to use that monitor for the primary display.
    Cheers all, and thanks for any help!

    Hello,
    I'm wondering if boting from it's drive on the oother Mac didn't write some of the other Mac's Monitor info to it?
    Instead of Mirroring, what if you make the external monitor the main one by dragging the Dock to it?
    If you can ever get it to boot, this thread may be helpful if you want mirroing...

  • HT3913 how do i add a second monitor to a late 2009 iMac 27"

    I would like to know how to add a second monitor to my late 2009 iMac 27". Has anyone already performed this and if so how?

    Depends on the monitor, many support more than one connection.
    Also note that: VGA is analog, DVI is digital and HDMI is full HDMI technology. 
    For a VGA supported monitor, you will need a > Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adaptor and a VGA cable.
    For a DVI supported monitor under 24", you will need a > Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adaptor and a DVI cable.
    For a DVI supported monitor over 24" you will need a > Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter and a DVI cable.
    For a HDMI supported monitor, you will need a > Belkin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter and a HDMI cable.

    Thanks for all the replies.
    I've now installed the ad blocker, thrown away the unwanted files, and thrown away a copy of Firefox that Adware said had a problematic extension.
    Things are better, but still slow.
    Activity Monitor shows that with just Mail, Chrome and Excel running, 2.9GB of my 4GB RAM is used. Opening InDesign (always slow) increase that to 3.2GB. But the graph stays green.
    Console shows several potential problems but I don't know if any are significant. In any case I will call my Mac store tomorrow to ask their advice about RAM.

  • My hard drive is slower than ever - Late 2009 iMac - help requested

    I was testing my hard disk via BlackMagic Disk Speed Test across the network (for copying files from my MacBook Pro to my Late 2009 iMac, and I was shocked at the write speeds.
    Because of this, I went to the machine and ran local tests, both BlackMagic and xbench. Suddenly I was horrified when I saw the performance for write operations well below the speeds I'd observed in the past. Luckily, I had saved xbench files so I had the ability to compare old disk tests. In the summer of 2013 running 10.7.3, this same hard drive had an uncached write speed of 116 MB/s [4K blocks] and 94 MB/s [256K block]. Now, the drive running under 10.9.5 is performing very inconsistently, with top speeds around 80 MB/s and averages more like 50 MB/s.
    I cannot think of any significant changes to tools or background applications installed since that time, so I ran EtreCheck -- the results of which I'm pasting below.
    Any guidance as to what I should test would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading! --
    Chris
    Problem description:
    Hard disk slowed to less than half the speed from Mac OS X 10.7.3, as I am now on 10.9.5 and the speed appears to be roughly 40M/s uncached write down from 119M/s previously. I am using the same drive, memory and most of the same applications.
    The only large difference is the OS.

    Hi Eric -
    I did a horrible job of explaining *when* the slow performance became noticeable. These changes did not happen when I installed Mavericks, I just don't have benchmarks *saved* to give the support community exact numbers after Mavericks was installed. The performance at that time was roughly the same, although you might recall that the old app xbench no longer worked to give a comparison because one or more of the sections of testing wouldn't work (memory, if I recall correctly, although I will run it when I am back at that machine and post here).
    In any case, the only significant change since the slow down is the OS, but the decline in performance was noticed in the fall. It wasn't until I tried this network copying task the other day that I decided to run BlackMagic's test. This is when I realized I should go check the performance on the local machine. Having already run through many of the generic recommendations, I thought perhaps someone here who has a much deeper understanding of the storage abstraction layer would have guidance on specific preference files that might be corrupted since I can't find any tool to check them. I've noticed that many of the people seeking guidance are not very technical and the advice is similarly geared. I'm sure I could spend a little time this week finding comparable tools in Mac OS X to those I'd have used in the past on Windows (Sysinternals) to do real time debugging and process analysis.
    So far I have found that there were a few processes running high, like the dashboard client, so I moved (deleted) the preference file and rebooted. This resulted in the gain to that 60 MB/sec write performance (up from the low of 40 MB/sec), but there must be other areas yet unexplored.
    At this point I'm considering a fresh install, but I'd been told in previous exchanges when I first started developing on Macs (2008) that fresh installs were rarely the best solution on Macs.
    Can you give me guidance on that? You probably know that in the Windows world it is often (depending on how you define often) necessary to format and reinstall the OS. As a long time systems architect developing everything from device drivers to enterprise solutions, I see that as a result of the attempts to maintain legacy support for so long and the convoluted resulting APIs and failure to make real fixes for fear of causing problems with older hardware and software. Would you suggest erasing and reinstalling?
    @BobHarris - I know that's a problem and it's why I monitor the drive more than I do drives in other systems. My drive didn't qualify for replacement, but I think Apple doesn't always do a good job with the recalls. I was very fortunate that my old white MacBook qualified for quite a few replacement parts so it's a great browsing-the-web computer now, but at its age, it isn't capable of running most of the apps I need. I have considered selling the 27" iMac but when I last had it in for warranty repair, the DisplayPort was misaligned to the case, so I'm going to have to pay labor just to get it popped open to fix that (since the service center says they didn't cause the DP problem - although they must have!)... In any case, if I have to spend that money, I might as well use the drive doubler kit since I never use the optical drive in that box anyway. Mostly I love having it because of the gorgeous big screen. That being said, costs of repairs are silly when I can just buy another used MBP circa 2012 and get twice the processing power then use a CalDigit dock like the one I use with my existing MBP to use an inexpensive HD TV for the monitor.
    Thanks for the replies folks - the input is awesome!

  • Late 2009 iMac 27" as display for gaming desktop?

    I'm looking at buying a gaming desktop with a high end graphics card. I know that the late 2009 imac can use the "mini-displayport" to be used as a monitor for the pc, but the graphics card on my desktop will only have a "displayport." The card comes with a DisplayPort to Mini-DisplayPort cable, which would allow them to connect, but will it be compatible for Target Display mode? Some people have reported success online, but i could be missing information.

    Hello CDeuschel,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    Target Display Mode: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3924
    Can I use the iMac in TDM as a display for my gaming console, DVD player, or other device?
    The Mini DisplayPort port on a supported iMac can receive DisplayPort compliant video and audio signals. Converters not made by Apple may provide options to convert other electrical, video, and audio protocols to Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt compliant signals.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Late 2009 iMac is failing. No obvious reason - help!

    My late 2009 iMac has been getting slower and slower in last few months and is now practically dead. I've checked everything (Ram, CPU, rogue processes) and can see nothing obvious. I have 1.8GB free RAM, CPU never looks busy in Activity monitor. I upgraded to Mavericks on hope it would help but nadda.
    I keep getting the waiting ball appear when I try to do things. Sometimes I get an hour of undisturbed bliss, then relentless waiting with every click. When I restart the machine it is always at its worse, till about 2-3 hours later when the iMac seems to have settled and I can actually do a few things without prolonged waiting.
    I tried to reinstall Mavericks to see if that worked but the reinstall failed at the last minute, leaving me back where I started.
    Full system details of my machine are:

  • Late 2009 iMac misbehavin'

    I've been having a lot of trouble with my late 2009 iMac lately. It tends to freeze, and often produces these coloured pixel things on screen. I have found that there is no particular task you can do to make these symptons appear..but i have a video. It sometimes happens 5 times a day, or 5 times a week...but it's incredibly annoying! The imac also sometimes (not all the time) makes a noise when it's frozen..it's just beyond me.
    I believe this all started around the same time i upgraded my RAM from 4GB to 8GB. I bought it from OWC, and soon after it started playing up. My first thought was to put the old RAM back in, so i went back to 4GB. Shortly after the same thing started happening. The RAM may have nothing to do with the problem...
    I've taken the imac to Mac1 on James Street in Brisbane. This young girl on the front desk was writing down what was wrong with it as i told her. Anyway i just mentioned it has happened in from safari to photoshop and even when i was watching movies. Then i get a call from the repair dude saying he's had it sitting there running movies all week, he doesn't know what i'm talking about...goodbye $100.
    Please have a look at the video, and let me know what you think. Part of me just wants a new machine, but i hate to be wasteful.

    Cheers.

    As old as your iMac is, have you cleaned out the dust? Dust buildup can lead to over heating issues. Remove any and all things plugged into it including the power cord, Remove the RAM access grille. Vacuum all openings starting with the RAM access area (air intake). Vacuum all ports and plugs, DVD slot and the opening across the top of the rear of the body. Blow compressed air through all your openings and vacuum again to remove any dust you loosend. Reinstall the RAM grille. Plug in the keyboard and mouse if not blue tooth. Insert power cord...
    You are now in a perfect position to do a
    SMC RESET
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.
    Here is a link to a Widget to monitor your temps and other operations:

  • Late 2009 imac- Mavericks, Kernel Panics- checkerboard screen- only works in Safe Mode now.

    Need help with Late 2009 imac- had HD and video card replaced under Apple Care last year. Upgraded to Mavericks and it froze up while on Yahoo looking at a slide show. Screen pixelated with checkerboard patterns and then eventually locks-up. Only way to get it to work now is in SAFE MODE.
    Tried memory test, Resetting SMC, AHT, Zapping NVRAM, PRAM, only errors I can see are some permissions
    From Repair Permissions (Disk utility):

    From LOG see a new RAM and KERNEL PANIC-
    Note RAM was tested in separate test and passed erlier today- but see that it is listed as corrupt here:

    All RAM tested individually and Passed- Ran a Ram memory test as well.
    New kernel panic is now as follows-
    What's interesting is I had the video card replaced at Apple in the last year- it's a ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB
    But I see that the log has it listed as
    "com.apple.ATIRadeonX2000(8.2.4)" 
    wondering if that my be the problem as the issue is the screen is fragmented and flickers- checkerboard before it crashes when not in safe mode..

  • HT3918 Mixing RAM modules in a late 2009 iMac

    I have a late 2009 27" iMac that came with only 2 Gig of RAM.  I recently ordered 16 Gig of RAM (4 modules), but they only shipped me 8 Gig (2 modules).  I installed the 8 Gig (still leaving me with 2 empty slots), can I also reinstall the two 1 Gig modules that I removed for a total of 10 Gig?
    Also, if I order an additional 8 Gig from another company will it cause problems to mix products from different companies?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The Late 2009 iMac came with 4 GB on all the models, so maybe you have an Early 2009 iMac.
    Apart from that, if you have a Late 2009, you can use 16 GB of memory, so you can install two 4 GB modules and two 1 GB modules, for a total amount of 10 GB, without any problem. If you have an Early 2009 iMac, 8 GB of memory are the maximum.
    To buy memory, I only recommend you OWC and Crucial, that provides compatible memory with Macs. Other brands may work, but with OWC and Crucial you can be sure that memory will work with your computer > http://www.macsales.com

    Fixing a Mavericks Installation Problem
    How to manage a failed OS X Mavericks installation | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews.
    Try these in order:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
         after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
         Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • RAM issues after installation (Late 2009 iMac)

    I was trying to upgrade a late 2009 iMac computer from its original RAM of 4GB. I purchased 8GB of memory from Corsair off Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Channel-204-Pin-SO-DIMM-CMSA8GX3M2A1066C7/dp/B0050 5EZYW/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1403201294&sr=8-6&keywords=mac+memory+notebook+8+gb), which, despite saying is "Notebook Memory" in the description, there are numerous reviews stating that it works in late 2009 iMacs and the packaging itself says it will work with iMacs. I've installed memory before on two other Macs, including another late 2009 iMac (from 4GB to 8GB), but have had issues with this most recent installation. Like I said before, the computer originally had 4GB of memory, with 2x2GB cards in their original slots (the two slots closest to the stand). So, I installed the 2x4GB cards in the bottom two slots (slots closest to the display).
    Upon rebooting the computer, I get a single loud tone, repeated every 5 seconds, which, according to other support articles, means that there is no RAM installed. I took out the RAM cards and tried various installations, and can't even get the original two cards, by themselves and in their original slots, to work. I'm pretty sure I am installing them correctly - I don't hear a loud click when I slide them into place, but the fit definitely feels snug and can hear them shift into place, plus I get a nice click when I've popped them out with the tabs.
    Other things to note - there seems to have been a fair amount of dust when I first removed the plate where the memory is held, but that was easily blown away, but I could have possibly lodged dust further into the slot. But I highly doubt that is the issue. I installed it on a carpeted floor to protect the screen, which looking back could mean there was a slight static charge, but am not sure if this would result in damaging the cards to the point where the computer does not recognize them anymore. I didn't realize this till after the first failed installation, but there was a refrigerator-type calendar magnet (very, very weak) on the front of the computer that I am wondering might also have something to do with the issues.
    I could try installing the RAM on the other late 2009 iMac but don't want to risk ruining another computer...
    Please let me know if there's any additional information I can supply. I wanted to include any possible sources of issues so I can pinpoint exactly what caused this to occur, or if there's something I am simply not doing correctly.

    Not sure if it's a permanent solution, but found something that works. Not sure exactly how the locking mechanism for the cards work, but I had an idea that possibly one side was seated poorly, causing the issue to occur. I therefore tried two cards on the left side, found that didn't work, and tried two cards on the right side, and that did work. I tried two cards on the right side, with one card either in the top left corner or top bottom corner, and the top left corner worked, but caused the computer to start beeping again shortly after turning on. Took out that card, restarted the computer, and now it works fine, albeit with less memory than I originally wanted. It did once run into an issue shortly after turning on when it did 3 short beeps, 3 long beeps, and 3 short beeps. I saw an error online with the inverse (3 long, 3 short, 3 long), but couldn't find a definitive answer for what my particular pattern meant (someone said it was a logic board error). Anyway, I left it by itself as I looked for an answer, and in the meantime it restarted again and ended up fixing itself.
    Not exactly sure if this will start another series of issues, but that seems to work in the meantime.

  • Boot Camp for Windows 7 64 bit on 21.5" late 2009 iMac

    I've read much about installing Windows 7 64 bit on my 21.5" late 2009 iMacs -
    - nevertheless there is some lack of clarity about how to do it right.
    First I read "http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Boot_Camp_Install-Setup10.6.pdf".
    That's all well and good, but nowhere in this document is that "USB storage device trick"
    (see "http://support.apple.com/kb/DL995") mentioned! On the other hand, in that DL995
    description there's nowhere mentioned that there are additional steps to do afterwards!
    OK - first I prepared my USB storage device according to DL995, made a 201GB partition,
    inserted the 64 bit Windows 7 DVD and ran the installation without any problems.
    Windows works, but brightness and volume controls for example don't work.
    (When I press F1 I get Windows help etc.)
    I can't find Boot Camp installed under Windows anywhere!
    After the same installation on my second 21.5" iMac everything looks identical
    with the exception that under "Bluetooth Devices" on one machine there's
    "Apple Wireless Keyboard" and "Apple Wireless Mouse" installed - on the other
    machine NOT, even tough I've NEVER used Bluetooth devices any of both
    machines (just used wired Apple keyboard and USB Trackball).
    How can this be? What's wrong?
    Before I continue (OS X disc, 3.1 update... if required at all?),
    how can I verify that the USB storage device had been used at all?/
    How would it look if it wouldn't have been used?
    Thanks for your help!

    Thanks for your reply.
    You inserted and ran Apple setup off your OS X DVD once W7 was updated and running?
    That adds a bunch of devices and services, OSSwitcher, TimeServices, the Boot Camp
    control panel, and would show Boot Camp version 3.0 in Programs control panel.
    Yes, I know, but I haven't installed it yet. First I want to make sure that the first
    step of the installation (DL995) worked well. on both Macs. Do you know how this
    could be verified? What should have been installed from the USB device?
    It puzzles me that on my 2nd iMac under "Bluetooth Devices"
    "Apple Wireless Keyboard" and "Apple Wireless Mouse"haven't been installed.
    Maybe this is a clue, that on that iMac the USB device had been ignored
    during windows installation? Or could that have another reason?
    This is my problem at the moment.
