Logic board bluetooth connector

So I've been doing some research on installing bluetooth into my 12" iBook G4 (bought in June of 2004). I've found the Apple parts online but for about a total cost of $120. I don't really have that much money to spend on getting internal bluetooth so I've been looking for some other options. I found this website http://www3.telus.net/thewitt/BT/ that shows how to install a USB dongle inside the iBook and hook it up to one of the external USB ports, thus disabling one of the USB ports permanately.
However, I've been wondering what type of connection the bluetooth connector on the logic board is. I've found two different references to a "micro USB cable" (post #13 here: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=80580 ) that connects the Apple bluetooth board to the logic board http://www.welovemacs.com/9226126.html
My question is what type of connection is the bluetooth connector on the logic board of the iBook?
If it is truly a USB port then i think i could follow the tutorial on putting an after-market USB dongle insdie of the iBook, but instead of wiring it to one of the external USB ports, i could wire it to a connector cable and then connect the USB dongle to the internal bluetooth connector, thus giving me internal bluetooth without losing any of the external ports. Hope that makes sense, any feed back on my plan would be great, but I REALLY need to know for sure what type of connection the logic board uses for Apple's bluetooth board.

You won't be able to get direct help from Apple or through an Apple Store as you are NOT an Aurhorized Apple Technician.
If you have another Authorized Apple reseller/repair center that you can locate in and around your region, you maybe able to have that authorized Apple center order the part for you.
If Is this a connector that was soldered to the Logic Board, if you find an authorized Apple repair center that can resolder the old connector OR desolder/resolder a new purchased  replacement connector that would be best.
Otherwise, you are out of luck and will have to pay to get a new,replacement Logic board.
This is what happens when someone, like yourself, who maybe a newbie/novice with Macs and with iMacs that decides to break into a Mac that was never designed for the inexperienced users to tinker with and upgrade these style Macs.
This is a very difficult Mac model to work on for very experienced Mac upgraders!
I consider myself very experienced with upgrading Macs over the years, and even I won't break into these new, aluminum style iMacs.
Apple designers and engineers have made these iMacs pretty much a daunting and tedious task for an end user to upgrade anything or work on anything inside of these Macs.
As you have found out the hard way, there a lot of fiddly, finicky small parts and connectors that can be prone to breakage.
I have given you my best advice, but bottom line you are now completely on your own to fix this, now.
If you need a new Logic board replacement, Apple MAY ( or may not) decide to help you and order and install a new logic board. This will be expensive.
You will have better luck with an authorized Apple reseller/repair center for the Logic Board replacement if it comes to that, but you'll still pay for the expensive replacement.

  • 1st Generation iMac G5 with new main logic board but now no Bluetooth?

    Greetings:
    As an owner of a 1st generation iMac, I can finally report that my iMacG G5 is now working fine since the main logic board has been replaced because of bad capacitors.
    A NEW problem has been created. My internal bluetooth no longer works and is not visible in the hardware profile. I suspect that the Apple repair center may have removed my module or that it was attached to the old main logic board. On PC's running MS Windows (XP), there is a "hardware detect" routine.
    QUESTION: Can anyone tell me if the internal module is visible by taking the cover off? I cannot seem to find a photo of where or how the module is attached. I can see my Airport module. Regardless, the Apple repair center said to simply bring it back in and they would fix the problem. They indicated that it was a simple software fix. After trying many different software techniques, I still believe they somehow forgot that my computer had BT and it went back with my old logic board.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Jeff

    We discovered the problem. After taking my iMac G5 back to the Apple service center, I got to observe the technician remove my G5 cover and bluetooth module.
    The problem was due to the fact that the initial technician apparently did not realize he/she broke off the very small connecting pins on the module when he/she removed it from the original main logic board with the bad capacitors. They simply screwed it on the main logic board. They order a new BT module to replace the broken one.
    FYI: It is very easy to install the BT module on the main logic board as I observed. No soldering, etc.. The location is directly above the power supply but below the airport card. It is about the size of a postage stamp and is in clear view withou removing any parts.
    Thanks to All....Miriam...

  • Late 2006 24" imac - broken sata connector on logic board

    How to fix broken sata port on logic board? It snapped off, apparently it wasn't soldered on very securely. Now I can only boot my machine with external usb drive. Help!

    Hi Aaron
    Bummer, I only see 4 options.
    1. Continue to run from an External HD, FireWire 400 is faster than USB.
    2. Find someone with the tools and skill to re-solder a connector back onto the logic board.
    +(problem is, not to many folks can or will, because it's nearly impossibly)+
    3. Buy a new Logic Board for $600+ > http://www.welovemacs.com/apim242inco26.html
    +(problem is, that the iMac isn't worth $600)+
    4. Buy a New or Refurbished iMac.

    Personally I'd put my money on #4, instead of spending another dime on a 4 year old machine that also needs a Graphic's Chip and who knows what else.

  • IMac display connector on logic board

    Does anyone know the part number or part description for the connector on the logic board that connects to the display (tdms) cable on an iMac G4? On the logic board, where the old one was, is the notation "j10". The person I got this iMac from tried upgrading the hard drive and accidentally ripped the connector off because they didn't unclip the tdms cable from the drive first.
    I figure soldering a new connector on should be a pretty easy fix, but I'm not sure what part to order. I know a few places that I could probably order it from, once I know what I'm ordering.

    Seems to me a similar question has appeared in these boards, and
    there are a few people who are regulars, that may know the answer.
    Been awhile since I've seen the posts regarding this topic, so I can't
    just put a link to the correct discussion at this time. Maybe the post
    could appear as part of a search; such a dragnet approach may be
    daunting and the yield well beyond the scope of your needs.
    A slightly different discussion than I recall, but near the neighborhood:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9096347
    Is there a close-up picture here of the connector in question?
    http://www.mrtotes.co.uk/mrtotes/iMac%20Flat%20Panel.html
    You may be able to contact this source via his Discussions
    Profile and ask more indepth about your connector questions.
    Good luck & happy computing!
    {PS: I have an inop third iMac G4 1.25 17" model sitting in the
    closet on the floor, but have not gotten time to look into it.}

  • Need Info to repair broken power switch connector on logic board

    Hi folks,
    I had some bad luck this week. The power switch connector broke off my daughter's Ibook logic board during a HD upgrade attempt. Unfortunately, it pulled enough of the etch that I can't determine where the connections use to go.
    I would like to salvage the board. So, if anyone has access to a schematic for the G3 Ibook, 14" 900Mz logic board, I would appreciate some info about the circuit. Specifically, to what components does the switch connect. I already identified one side is grounded and the other side is pulled up to 3V through a 1K resistor, but that etch also went somewhere else. I suppose the gate of a FET transistor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Perhaps someone with a dead logic board could trace the circuit with an ohm meter.
    Regards,
    Spencer

    Hi spencer,
    Apple doesn't make circuit diagrams available, sorry. I've done or had done component level repairs of iBook logic boards before, usually to re-attach connectors which have come off, but unlike yours, these ones have all come off leaving the trace on the board.
    The fact the traces have come off isn't good, as you can probably tell. It's also a 4 layer board, so where the vias go is important. I have a couple of dead logic boards from 500,600 and 700mhz iBooks. The 14 inch logic boards are essentially the same as the 12 inch ones. These pictures are of the area of a 700mhz logic board.

    Hope it helps.

  • EMac 1.25 Power button logic board connector snapped

    While installing a new HD on my 1.25 eMac, I snapped off the connector on my logic board for the power button. It was held in place by four small bent wires coming out of the bottom of the connector soldered to 4 pads on the logic board. Does anyone have a quick fix, or can forward me a photo of their connector so I can orient the connector properly when I try to reconnect it? No local repair shop will touch it. Thanks for your help!

    You have a 1.25 GHz logic board, and your picture shows the underside of the assembly. The connector mounts on the opposite side with the pins passing through the board to the side of it which is pictured, and are soldered to the side which you show. The solid edge of the keyed connector shell faces toward the edge of the PCB, which is identified as side D in your picture.
    The connector could not possibly have been mounted to the underside of the board and soldered on the top of it, as you seem to describe. And, no - it would not be properly pinned if you were to mount it on the underside, as the the pins would be reversed.

  • Power button connector torn off the logic board

    During what seemed to be a routine repair I tore the power button cable connector off the logic board. Is there anything that I can do now that does not involve installing a new logic board?

    Hey iBookfragger and Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    Here's a pic of a 12" 1.33 board I have here in my repair pile:
    http://tinyurl.com/7s4epq
    verify with a continuity meter that these points are connected on yours.
    I then solder two tiny stranded wires to the SMT devices at the points indicated and lead those wires to the ripped socket contacts.
    It's a lot easier and requires a much less steady hand than Duane possesses.
    In addition some of these sockets leads didn't stick out as much as these for the 1.33 and are pretty much completely hidden under the socket itself.
    These sockets were fragile. These were held physically to the board with the two solder attachment pads near the back. Others were epoxied to the logic board and the tabs were soldered to the traces.
    I recommend not removing that plug when swapping out the hard drive. It's been ripped off the board too many times around here. Me included!

  • Kernel panic.. with new logic board

    Hi,
    So I recently replaced my logic board after trying EVERYTHING to fix a somewhat frequently occuring kernel panic. Now however.. it has happened again.
    Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? I honestly feel like I've tried everything. Could it be bad RAM? I've changed the hard drive, done a fresh OS X install (perhaps its something in my settings from migrating my old stuff back over?), new logic board.. reset PRAM, every suggestion I could find.
    Here is the old discussion before I changed the logic board. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3902490

    Any help at all or new fixes I could try would be greatly appreciated! Very frustrating!

    Cheers - I've run Rember a few times and it hasn't come up with any errors, but I've heard it's not a 100% accurate test. Looks like that's the only thing left it could be!

  • How can I tell if my motherboard and/or logic board is fried?

    Good evening all, I was just wondering if anybody can tell me the way to find out if my old power mac mobo is fried, or weather it's the logic board or the power supply. When I try to boot it up there is no start up chime, there is no white power on light and the red light doesn't even come on. It's one of those bad liquid cooled models but it hasn't leaked. I really don't have the luxury of spending a lot of money just to have someone diagnose the thing for me. I would be willing to replace the power supply for the price that was quoted to me off hand from an apple tech, but the person on the phone wouldn't let me talk to the tech so he wouldn't answer my ? and I despise the genius bar kids who don't seem to know the hard core techie stuff and I tend to talk circles around them. Sorry if there is already a post on this (I searched but came up with nothing) or if this is a dumb or fruitless effort on my part but no clear answers yet found in the magical internet.
    Cheers and thanks in advance for your responses!

    Can you count the beeps or flashes of the Power Button?
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
    5 beeps = processor is not usable
    In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
    Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

    Power Mac G5 (Late 2005) computers have six or seven built-in diagnostic LEDs on the main logic board that can help Apple Authorized Service Providers (AASPs) troubleshoot certain issues. These LEDs are located to the left of the top bank of DIMM connectors (where your computer's RAM is installed):

  • MacBook Pro Retina showing spinning ball issues even after Main Logic Board Replacement

    HI there!
    I'm a proud owner of Macbook Pro, 15 inch, late 2013 model. It has 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7 processor; 16 GB Ram, 1 TB PCIe based SSD. The software version is OS X 10.9.4. I have AppleCare.
    1. MY mac developed rainbow beach ball issues. Sometimes it'll last for ages. I took several videos of them. I spent hours chatting with online Apple advisors. They did everything they could possibly do: Repair Disk, Repair Disk Permissions, SMC reset, PRAM reset. When nothing worked, I did clean-install the Mac six or seven times. Every time other apps would randomly cause the spinning ball issues. My Mac even restarted all on a sudden because of kernel panic. So at last, I took it to an Apple Store which is a one-mile drive from London. They diagnosed it as a graphics issues and replaced the Main Logic Board and put it to standard testing which revealed no other anomalies.  After the repair, I noticed that dock icons remain present for a dew seconds when I restart or shut down the computer. So this time I took it to a London Apple Retail Store. The Genius at first diagnosed it as a display burn-in issues and sent it to be replaced with a new one. However, next day the technician who actually worked on the computer, phoned me saying that they could not reproduce any issues and did not replace the display either. I went to take my Mac back and discovered that the dock icons stuff still persist when restarting or shutting down the Mac. When I drew their attention, they told me that it was a software issue that Apple is aware of. Apple might resolve the issues in the future updates. Well, after getting back to my hotel room, I clean-installed my OS  from USB and the dock icon issues were gone. Same version of software, but different behavior.
    2. But that's not the reason I'm here. My Mac has again begun to show the rainbow beach ball one day after the repair, when I try to connect to my Airport Time Capsule through Finder in order to selectively transfer files to my Mac. This time the spinning ball would last for a very short time. But if I want, I can regularly reproduce them. I've also noticed this when installing MS Office for Mac 2011 edition. I'm sure I'll get the nasty ball as I use the Mac more and more.
    3. I've got some questions: Can it be that during the MLB replacement, some other connectors got harmed? Or the issues are not specific to graphics only? Why didn't Apple find any anomalies during testing? I'll go to Apple Retail Store again, when I get the chance to. Once there, can I ask them for a full replacement of the Mac? Shall they take my request otherwise? I really don't feel comfortable using a shouldered computer which is going to go through many parts replacements.
    4. I sincerely need your feedback. Please help me guys out there.

    Applecare was no help at all. I called and did the complaint. They confirmed that it is registered to me and everything but essetially told me that they cant give me answers as to what is taking so long. They knew a repair was in progress but wanted to set me up with an appointment at an apple store? (the nearest Apple retail store is Billings which is 240 miles away, or about 4 hours). i tell them its at the repair place and they go on to tell me they can send me a box to mail it in and have it reapir by them.. They are trying to shift the blame to the AASP and his rep. But he said he has been trying with very few answers from Apple as well

  • Macbook Pro 13'' late 2011 (A1278) logic board I/O to keyboard replacement

    I splashed a cup of coffee on my keyboard last year, the keyboard then became sticky. So I resembled everything and replaced a new topcase.
    But after that, the SPACE, DELETE, TAB and SHIFT keys of the new topcase were not function, which bring me a huge inconvenience. Now I have to place a new bluetooth keyboard on top of the laptop like... this:
    If some unimportant keys were not function, well, that's Ok for me, but the SPACE key and DELETE key... I'd like to say my keyboard is nothing but decoration on my laptop.
    I think the i/o parts which is soldered on the logic board was corroded by coffee. I can see some coffee strain / tiny coffee grain inside it. See, I marked it out in pic below. This i/o part is connected with keybaord.
    I have no way to get it out and put a new one on the logic board, there are lots of tiny wires and I have no tools to solder it and I don't know where to get the parts..
    So can anyone give me some suggestions? or tell me which company can do this kind of thing in a reasonable price? Thanks! I don't wanna use my laptop in this stupid way.

    Seems no one notice this post and nobody has interested.

  • Will Apple replace my Logic Board for free?

    Sounds crazy I know. But I read a bunch of different threads on many sites saying they replace it for free and some say they don't. Let me explain why I believe I shouldn't pay to get this repaired. Since I bought my MBP I've had problems from it. When I got it I kept getting the message saying...you need to restart your computer...otherwise known as a Kernal Panic. I took it to apple , they couldn't find the problem so they replaced the hard drive for free. This didn't fix the problem but I did not feel like having to continue to take my computer to apple because I do all of my work on my computer so I really didn't the time and I just worked around it. Just recently my computer has began to shut off randomly while using certain programs such as Chrome and Apple Motion. After putting a thread on here I've learned that this is a kernel panic once again but being caused by the logic board. Now I don't know if I received a faulty computer but day one I've been having these problems. Which is the reason I'm asking will Apple repair what wasn't caused by the user?
    I need to add that I love Apple and their products, I've had and have many computers and other devices from them that function flawlessly. This MacBook Pro is the only thing I'm having a problem with.
    Thanks for any help that anyone one can provide.

    Took me a little bit to get this posted becuase i just had another kenrmal panic, but here it is.

  • Powerbook 17" G4 1.67ghz - dead logic board, or dead DC board?

    Hi there,
    I have recently come in to the possession of a Powerbook G4 17" 1.67ghz, given to me by a friend in an attempt to fix it. The problem is simple: it won’t turn on! when plugged into the power cord, it makes the green illuminated rim on the flex turn off. I then have to turn the power supply off and on again to get it to work on other machines. I have been told it could be a DC board issue, or it could be logic board... If anyone could shed any light on the issue I would be grateful... Would prefer not to have to splash out on a new logic board!
    Chris
    Powerbook G4 17" 1.67ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    iBook G3 500   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I went through this last year.
    Power's up - but the light around the power plug flickers green all the time - even when charging.
    Won't charge when it's in sleep or turned off.
    Thought DC board - logically - but nope logic board.
    Then found out bluetooth wasn't working either.
    Well I thought 800USD is a lot to pay to fix those 2 things - so just living with it now.
    So even if it appears to be DC board - it might not be....
    hope this info somehow helps you out
    cheers
    Jase
