No video, ownership=3 yrs 4 months, any chance of Apple goodwill??

Has anyone with a 1st gen imac been covered for repair beyond 3 years? My imac is covered under the extended warranty, except that I'm 4 months beyond the 3 year mark of ownership. Ironically, I've already received a logic board/power supply repair 2.5 years ago, and incredibly those parts have only lasted me 2.5 years. I'm not even a heavy user (of the imac - a few hours of web surfing, email, and video games at most.
At the moment I'm using a video out cable to the TV to view my screen, but there are power issues as well.
Frankly, I really expect a computer to last a little longer than 3 years!

You might want to try calling Apple Customer Relations at 800-767-2775 and see what they can do for you.

    Apple already supports BT4, and has supported it for some time (since it became available)

  • HT202157 Is there any chance that Apple TV will support Amazon Instant Video?

    I watch Netflix, but I also have Amazon Instant Video because it has shows that are not on Netflix.

    This is a user forum, can't really speak to this here. Since Amazon block airplay I don't see it happening any time soon though.

  • Any chance of Apple iPod tubes for the 5th Gen?

    like the ones Apple made for the Nano? my wife has a Nano and the tubes are great. they protect the ipod without adding bulk and are made of soft silicon.

  • Any chance of Apple coming out with another 17" or 18"-19" monitor?

    It would be nice if they could open up the range of the monitor's a bit. The 23" and 30" are just too much monitor for my needs. Anyone hear anything on their next edition of displays?

    Speculation isn't allowed here, so maybe that's why no one answered. But I doubt it, because the 17-19" LCD market is saturated with low- to high-end displays with low- to high-end prices already. This segment doesn't seem to fit with Apple's goals, considering their current displays are all mid- to high-end large widescreen models.

  • Any chance that we can select full resolution for photostream on ipad?

    i would really like to use the New iPad as a primary photo editing solution. i have Snapseed and various other editing apps on the iPad but i just discovered that the Photo Stream copies of the photos on the iPad are down-sampled (which seems odd given the new retina display, etc.. of the new iPad). i'm sure this is done for space/connectivity reasons but it sure would be nice to have a full resolution option in the Photo Stream setup options. any chance that Apple is considering changing this? are others seeing the same issue?

    I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

  • Any chance I can use PC3200 (ECC) from my PC in my iMac?

    I write 'my iMac' with faith, as I don't have one yet, but I'm getting closer and closer to pulling the trigger (and selling my powerbook to finance it). You see, I'm basically poor. I've got an open tab in this very browser for a 2gb kit of Corsair Value Select ($217). I've also considered a single gig stick (bringing me up to an unmatched 1.5gb). Then I had a crazy notion:
    "My PC, which I hardly use any more due to the gruesome inferiority of XP to OS X, has 2x512mb PC3200 sticks in it... XP doesn't know what to do with anything more than 512!"
    They are both ECC sticks, but my understanding is that ECC can work in non-ECC setups, but not vice versa. If you mobo requires ECC, you need ECC, but the ECC functionality can be not used and it'll work like non-ecc memory. Sorry if that wasn't clear, but I'm pretty sure my current mobo doesn't acknowledge or use ECC, yet my ECC ram is running fine. ECC stands for Error Correcting SOMETHING, btw. Servers often use it, runs a bit slower but more stably than non-ECC. Anyway, I've got two chips, a samsung and a crucial chip, and I'm hoping that IF they'll work at all, that one of them would 'match' whatever 512 chip Apple sends stock. Then I can get by with the iMac running on 1gb.
    Am I a crazy cheap-skate? The other thing I considered slyly was 'Why not buy that 2gb kit and stick the spare 512 in the PC - then I can run BitTorrent, Google Earth AND a game at the same time on 1.5gb and stave off upgrading to an Intel iMac for another 6 months (ie. 2008?) because I also have 2gb in my iMac.'
    Thanks for your input.
    Alex
    p.s. if anyone knows if the spanning hack has any chance to output to DVI, please let me know - or look at my other post - thanks.

    Alex,
    Apple says:
    "Important: DIMMs with any of the following features are not supported in the computer: registers or buffers, PLLs, ECC, parity, or EDO RAM."
    However, my understanding of the language "not supported" is that they might work, anyway, but if something goes wrong it's not Apple's fault.
    With as many iMacs as are in use, there must be someone else who has tried ECC chips, if they are willing to own up to it:-)

  • Videos are not shown in any webpage, extensions ok, flash ok, what is the problem?

    Safari 6.0.5; most of the videos are not shown in any webpage, only Youtube and a very few amount of sites are working. I've been having the same problem for months. Any Solutions?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.

    Like the title says, my internet is so slow that i cannot even stream a youtube video, is there any chance this can be rectified somewhat? My latency type is currently set to 'fast', would interleaved be a better option? I don't play games or anything online so ping times aren't terribly important. please see attached pic of my settings:
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    with your attenuation of 63.5, highest figure shown, you are a long way from the exchange and the result is a slow internet sorry.

  • Video calls on skype or any other program ?

    hi any chance of a video call program like skype working on the E7 ? in the making or not anytime soon ?

    Hi I am also disappointed with the E7. Even with 2 cameras it doesnt seem able to support video calls (at least on skype) I've never tried a videocall with a real phone call actually. However if you ever get a chance I would suggest the Nokia N900 (I had it for 1 year and a half): It supports skype video calls and its perfect!!!!  I used it all the time . Unfortunately it broke during my vacation and I sent it to the nokia care center but it couldnt be repaired so they gave me the nokia e7 in exchange. better than nothing but no comparison with the n900. If ur looking for skype video calls the NOKIA N900 is the way to go !!!!
