My imac 2013 has fallen. Is it possible to replace the outer case?

FRom the desk to the floor, my first imac was suddenly on the floor. Still working fine, no damage in that sense but case deformed and glass broke. It won t be possible to install new glass with deformation.

You can make an appointment at an Apple Store or authorized Apple service center and have them give you an estimate. My guess is that it will be a significant percentage of the cost of a new iMac, given how the iMac is built (there is no separate glass in the Late 2012 iMac; the LCD is bonded to the glass), and so may not be worth repairing, but you may get lucky. Perhaps homeowner's insurance or accidental damage coverage through your credit card plan, if you bought the iMac with a credit card, will help with the cost of repair or replacement.
Regards.

  • I have an Intel based iMac that has just developed two small spots on the screen. One 1/8" circle at bottom and a tiny circle at top.  The fading on and off light isn't working anymore either.  Does anyone know anything about this?

    I have an Intel based iMac that has just developed two small spots on the screen - they look light brighter spots on the screen. One 1/8" circle at bottom right and a tiny circle at top right.  The fading on and off light on area surrounding the screen isn't working anymore either.  Has anyone else had similar problems?  Any solutions?  Thanks!

    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

  • My Iphone 5(purchased in Jan 2013) has suddenly developed a multicolored hue in the center of the **** screen. it looks pathetic and totally whacked out. Its rainy and humid where I stay this time of the year. Apple guys are you reading this?

    my Iphone 5(purchased in Jan 2013) has suddenly developed a multicolored hue in the center of the **** screen. it looks pathetic and totally whacked out. Its rainy and humid where I stay this time of the year. Apple guys are you reading this? does the management go through this website.? Hey Apple guys, can you replace my phone for me.Its so slippery and slides out very easily from my hands. I have owned smartphones before but yours is a real slimy slider. so while I was shooting pics in varanasi in march it fell out of my palm (it was drizzling) and the rear screen (the section next to the camera) kinda cracked real ugly and obviously due to this the camera is behaving kinda crazy too. can you guys help me out here.?

    If your phone is defective (aside from the accidental damage) Apple will fix or replace the phone. You saud you purchased the phone in January so it is still under warranty. 
    If you have an Apple Store in your area, make a Genius Bar appointment.
    If not, Contact Apple Service Center:

  • When updating to  Mountain Lion I get this measageThis disk has S.M.A.R.T. errors. This disk has hardware problem that can't be repaired. Back up as much data as possible and replace the disk.

    When updating to  Mountain Lion I get this measage
    This disk has S.M.A.R.T. errors. This disk has hardware problem that can’t be repaired. Back up as much data as possible and replace the disk.
    never had this before download of Mountain Lion.

    As others have stated, this is a potentially catastrophic event.  Consider yourself lucky, as hard drives usually just fail wihtout warning.  Your disk could die at any time.  This is a mechanical / physical failure, not software related.
    Going forward, I would suggest utilizing a utility that monitors SMART status, which you obviously don't have, such as SpeedTools.

  • Is it possible to replace the wifi card with another one?

    Hi
    I have a t400 with intel 5100 wifi card and now I want to install mac os on my laptop.
    problem is that mac os does not detect the 5100 series of wifi card and I want to know whether it is possible to replace the current 5100 model with a older series?
    Is there any certified service center in Uppsala/ Sweden to do that?
    Thanks,
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Lenovo restricts the wireless cards to Lenovo branded units certified to work with the machine. This is done through a whitelist in the system BIOS. I recently disassembled the latest (version 3.14-1.06) T500/W500 BIOS and found the following whitelist table. This is raw big endian hex appended with what I found by searching the device ID's. Redundant entries are for varying vendor IDs.

    Your T400 is from the same lineup and probably has the same list. Remember, you'll need to purchase a Lenovo branded unit.

  • Is it possible to replace the hard drive in my zen ext

    Hi
    I dropped my player ( yeah I know, I'm an idiot lol )
    Is it possible to replace the hard dri've as I think this is the problem, and if it possible will I be able to download the firmware from the creative site?
    This wouldn't be such a huge problem for me but I'm in China and there isn't a place other than a huge computer market that I can take it.
    Cheers

  • Is it possible to import the failure cases from another test plan in MTM ?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to import the failure cases from another test plan? For example, I have created a new test plan with ID 1002. Now I want to import the failure cases from test plan with ID 1001.  Is there anyway to do this?
    Thanks,
    Leslu

    Hi Leslu,
    As far as I know, there isn’t that feature in MTM, but we could achieve that by add test cases to the test suite.
    As we know, the test case is associated to the test suite, remove the test case from the test suite won’t delete the test case, it just remove the relationship.
    So, we could base on the test cases’ id to add the test cases to a test suite of another test plan.
    The condition is:
    Work Item Type In Group Test Case Category
    ID In id1,id2 (e.g. 1,2,)

  • Is it possible to replace the internal wifi antenna in a itouch 1st gen with a stronger internal wifi antenna from a slightly newer model, such as a 2nd or 3rd gen itouch?

    Is it possible to replace the internal wifi antenna in a itouch 1st gen with a much stronger internal wifi antenna from a slightly newer model, such as a 2nd or 3rd generation itouch?

    That is not very likely as the antennae are different physical designs and fit will be an issue.

  • IMAC 2010 which HDD can I use to replace the malfunctioned Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB?

    iMAC 2010 which HDD can I use to replace the malfunctioned Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB?

    After doing a bit more research, the 2010 iMacs do appear to have a third cable connecting to the  hard drive, for the internal temp sensor.  This would appear to be the block of 8 pins that are on almost all drives, but they are normally intended for jumpers.  Unfortunately I was unable to find any documentation or specs that would indicate this pin block connects to the internal temp sensor on either standard (non-Apple) WD Black or Seagate 7200.12 drives.
    I did find some info that may be of some use:
    WD: Where to connect an external temperature sensor to a Serial ATA or EIDE hard drive.iFixit: Replace the hard drive, how do I connect the hard drive thermal sensor?
    Apple Technician Guide: iMac 2010 27" (mid-2010)
    Various discussion threads I found through google searching indicated some people succeeded with installing an external temp sensor on the body of the drive.
    Sorry I couldn't help more.

  • Satellite U400 - Is it possible to replace the touchpad button?

    Hello
    I need help please. I want to know if there is a possible way to change the button at my Satellie U400 because they are getting soft and they are not as good and hard as it was before, so please anyone know's if I can remove those and put 2 new one's?
    If you dont understand exactly what I mean take a look at the picture and you will see/understand.
    [http://oi56.tinypic.com/j0wwoj.jpg]
    thank you.

    Hi Loow,
    Im sure its possible to replace the touchpad buttons because you can replace everything on a notebook. But I think its a little bit tricky because you have to disassemble a lot of parts and thats not easy.
    You should ask an authorized service provider The guys can order new spare part for you and exchange it. Just write an email for example to get in contact with them.
    You can find a list of ASPs here:
