Power Mac G4 bluetooth module

Hello,
I have a dual 1.42GHz model FW800-equipped Power Mac G4 (the fastest G4 Apple made.)
I bought it, and it's like it's never been opened! The original Pioneer Superdrive is there, original Seagate 120GB HDD (with a    logo on it),
original 2x256MB Samsung RAM sticks, and the Radeon 9000 Pro, and everything works fine.
I'm in the throws of upgrading it, and I have got 2GB of RAM, and Tiger on it so far.
I have found the original Service Source online, and it shows how to replace an internal Bluetooth module that was apparently an option on FW800 G4s.
It connected to a little blue antenna cable (that my tower has), and connected to the logic board via a little connector (that my tower also has) between the AirPort Extreme slot and the 56k modem.
With this info, my question is-where can I get one?
And before someone writes this, no, I don't want a cheap external dongle. G4's have only 2 USB ports as it is, and I don't have a PCI card.
Thanks!

I don't have a PCI card.
Get one.
More precisely, any NEC chipset USB 2.0 PCI card is great in OS X Tiger and Leopard (native NEC chipset support).
Some considerations are discussed on my page that follows:

You can get a NEC chipset PCI card for just a few dollars..... good, cheap upgrade.

  • Mac Mini: Bluetooth Module (Creating a Buzz)

    I have a high pitched buzzing sound coming from my Mac Mini's audio out right channel whenever the Bluetooth module is active. I have tried numerous recommendations and suggestions, but nothing seems to eliminate the buzz. Outside of disabling the Bluetooth or purchasing an USB audio interface. This situation is proving to be a disappointing one. Primarily because of the indented use for the Mini as a digital music and movie storage and playback unit, is being compromised by me having to hover over my computer instead of relaxing from the sofa without obtrusive wires being everywhere. Please... any help will be greatly appreciated.

    As posted in the other thread:
    Sean, you might try a ferrite ring which should be obtainable from Radio Shack. It'll be about an inch in diameter and you thread the speaker cable through it and wrap a few turns around it. This will act as an RF (Radio Frequency) choke, filtering out frequencies above the audio level (ie, the BT signal which is causing the interference).
    Ferrite rings are typically used by radio hams to cut down signal breakthrough into audio or tv equipment. The size of the ring and the number of turns of the cable will determine how much filtering it applies.

  • Internal Bluetooth Module on its way out?

    Recently, when I have booted up my Mac, the Bluetooth module hasn't started, so my mouse and keyboard don't work. Luckily, I have a spare USB mouse! If I restart, it still doesn't start up. If I shutdown and then startup, it generally does start up the Bluetooth module, and I can continue.
    I've not installed any new software over the last month except Apple's security updates, Safari, etc., and no firmware updates (and no exceptions).
    Therefore, I am wondering, is the module on its way out?
    A pain if it is, but as I still have my old USB keyboard, it's not going to make me buy a new iMac just yet
    Thanks,
    Blackie

    HI Blackie,
    Try resetting the PRAM/NVRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1431
    Make sure you system software is up to date. Click the Apple Menu  then click Software Updates...
    If you have available updates, make sure and run Disk Utility and repair disk permissions before and after any updates.
    If the internal Bluetooth is truly exhausted you can get a D-Link Bluetooth USB adapter. http://www.dlink.com/products/default.aspx?pid=34
    or here: http://www.amazon.com/D-Link-DBT-120-Wireless-Bluetooth-Adapter/dp/B00006B7DB/re f=sr12?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1245185955&sr=8-2
    I have one for an older Mac laptop and it's lasted 3 years.
    Always make sure you have sufficient disk space also.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see
    Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.

  • Bluetooth module no longer recognised in Mac Pro

    My Mac Pro's been doing some strange things recently.
    A couple of days ago I noticed things were running very slowly, just moving windows about they would jerk and jitter.
    Tried hardware test, disk utility etc but no problems found. I then unplugged the machine and plugged it back in - problem solved.
    Now today I started up the machine, go to login to my account and my keyboard and mouse don't work. They become initialised if I unplug and plug them back in, or if I wait about a minute they start working.
    Along with this, my bluetooth module is no longer recognised under Mac OS X, although when I reboot my machine into Vista the module is recognised and functions correctly.
    It also takes over minute to shut the machine down, which it has never done before. When turning it off the OS seems to quit quickly, but the screen remains black for a long time before the power is cut the the drive etc. (This is especially noticeable when restarting the machine as it takes more than twice what it has done in the past).
    Is this all just coincidence that these things happened at the same time, or are they related?

    Have you tried the standard debugging steps listed in the troubleshooting guides here and elsewhere?
    You might try looking at http://www.thexlab.com and other websites like that for information about how to debug various problems.
    If you are OK with opening your case, you can also reset the SMC controller on your motherboard, which can affect at least some of the subsystems you are having trouble with.
    But first, you need to do more general diagnostics.
    Run your MacOS hardware diagnostics by putting your OS boot CD in your optical drive, and hold the D key down when you boot.
    You can also hold down C when booting and when the installer appears, go to the menu and run Disk Utility, and verify at least your primary drive.

  • 2Gb Memory Modules - Power Mac G5?

    New here, but a returning Mac user.... at last....
    Just got hold of an older (early 2005) G5 Power Mac (Dual 2.7Ghz). Can anyone tell me if it's OK to upgrade the memory using 2Gb memory modules (assuming of course I have matching pairs, and don't exceed the max memory - 8Gb I think)?
    Sorry, I'm only able to find that 2 x 1Gb modules is OK, but so far nothing on 2 x 2Gb modules...
    Thanks.
    ~Mark~

    2 x 2Gb modules will not work.

  • Is Bluetooth module for Mac Pro/iMac compatible with FW800 MDD?

    I've been looking at fitting an internal Apple Bluetooth module in my FW800 MDD G4, and I've noticed the later modules for Intel Macs appear to have the same form factor. The connection to the logic board looks identical, as do the mounting holes. The only physical difference seems to be where the BT antenna connects (below on the original G4 card, above on the later modules).
    Has anyone tried fitting one with success?

    if you got the guts, shove it in there. think the issue you will have is the original machines supported the 1.1 cards, the card you speak of is 2.0

  • Adding Bluetooth to my Power Mac without USB.

    Hi,
    I'd like to add Bluetooth to my 1.8GHz Dual G5 Power Mac as cheaply as possible without using a USB port. Any recommendations for cheap PCI cards pleases.
    Thanks
    Max

    I have one of these plugged into my keyboard:

    I bought one like 2 and 3 (thou (2) got his pricing wrong and was only £2.75), one for my G5 and one for a windows laptop. I found that (2) dongle kept loosing my bluetooth mouse. I swapped the dongles over and found my bluetooth mouse preferred the (3) (only £1.75)
    So any above should work and if plugged into your keyboard or the front of the G5 wont take up a USB at the back.

  • Mac Genius said i need to replace SCREEN due to faulty Bluetooth module

    I have a Aluminium Macbook.
    It is under Apple care. I took it in today because the bluetooth kept loosing connection and then the Mac says no bluetooth hardware found.
    The Genius at the Apple Store said they need to replace the screen because the Bluetooth module "may" be behind the screen as it is not on the airport card anymore.
    Can anyone confirm, in the Aluminium Macbook (2008) where is the bluetooth receiver???
    Message was edited by: alborz82

    Hi alborz82,
    Correct. The Bluetooth adapter is not mounted onto the display assembly clamshell. It actually sits behind where it says "MacBook" which use to be the location of the Inverter board on the polycarbonate units (plastic). The Bluetooth adapter on the plastic MacBooks were mounted in front of the right hinge (wedged in between the hinge barrel assembly and the optical drive).
    It's not "behind" the screen, but the unit does have to be significantly disassembled in order to get at the Bluetooth module.

  • Looking to buy a Power Mac G5 - some input please

    Hello,
    I have an older MacBook Pro 17" and a newer Imac I plan on selling. I want something good for video editing via FCP.
    I have been looking at the Power Mac G5 but I am no computer expert.
    I can buy an older used one with the following congif.
    The G5 is about 3 years old (I'm told) but was almost never used (I'm told).
    - Comes with 23" LCD
    - Has a total of 5.5 RAM (added to original 512 config)
    - Airport Extreme Card
    - Leopard OS
    - original box, manuals and disks
    - Original order number: Dual 2.5GHZ SuperDrive M9457LL/A
    - L2 Cache: 512K per processor
    - Frontside bus: 1.25GHz per processor
    - DDR SDRAM main memory: 512MB PC3200 (400MHz) Supports up to 8GB
    - 8X AGP Pro graphics: ATI RADEON 9600 XT with 128MB DDR SDRAM
    - Hard drive: 160GB Serial ATA; 7200 rpm
    - Optical drive: SuperDrive (DVD-R/CD-RW)
    - PCI slots: Three open full-length PCI-X slots: one 133MHz, 64-bit slot and two 100MHz, 64-bit slots
    - Expansion: One FireWire 800 port, two FireWire 400 ports (one on front)
    - three USB 2.0 ports (one on front)
    - two USB 1.1 ports (on keyboard)
    - AGP 8X Pro slot with graphics card installed, including ADC connector and DVI connector
    - Bays: Two internal hard drive bays (1 occupied); one optical drive bay
    Also Added
    - Hard drives: 250GB Serial ATA
    - Graphics: ATI Radeon 9800 XT with 256MB of DDR SDRAM
    - Wireless Internal Bluetooth module with antenna & Bluetooth Wireless keyboard & mouse
    - Display: Apple Cinema HD Display (23-inch flat panel) M9178LL/A
    Question: Would this be a good computer for video editing?
    What should I expect to pay for this complete configuration?
    Thank you very much for you input!
    Tammy

    Using the website Mac2Sell, I get a value of about $1,400 for that config (not including the monitor).
    While this machine could be just fine for video editing with Final Cut Pro, it does have several drawbacks:
    1) Final Cut Pro 5.1.2 and above can leverage the graphics card for some effects (the FxPlug ones). The Radeon 9600 in this one is a very slow card, and won't provide much benefit for those effects, or for running Motion in general.
    2) You'll need to add a separate hard drive if you're going to do editing. Perhaps you already have an external drive that you've been using with your MacBook Pro or iMac.
    3) Since this machine is about 3 years old, it's out of warranty, even if it had AppleCare on it. So, any part failure would have to be replaced out of your own pocket, and this can get very expensive depending on the part.
    For around $2,000 to $2,300 you could get either a refurbished Mac Pro or a brand-new entry level Mac Pro. Both would run circles around the G5 you're looking at. While I love my PowerMac G5, the Mac Pros are much faster, especially since the Mac Pros have at least four CPUs and the one you're considering only has two. Add a Dell 24" monitor and you'll have one great editing machine.

  • DeskJet 450 and bluetooth module...no connection.

    Hi There,
    I just wonder if there is anyone who can help me with setting Bluetooth connection between my Mac Book Pro and HP DeskJet 450. I have recently bought Bluetooth module card CB004A for above mentioned printer, however for some reason I can’t establish any connection between laptop and the printer itself. I am using OS 10.5 and Bluetooth assistant, but this utility can’t find any bluetooth device near by. Bluetooth module is correctly inserted and power light is on.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Its HP branded module but HP website does not provide any solid informations about any drivers for this module. I did googled around but there is no any subjects, which may help me tho.
    Thank you

  • Which bluetooth module for iMac 17" 1.8Ghz

    I am trying to decide between two bluetooth modules for a 17" 1.8Ghz iMac. So far I have found part number 922-6201 and 922-6530. They look similar but I have been unable to find any explicit documentation that mentions the correct part.
    Can anyone help me out?
    JT
    Also feel free to reach me on ichat: jasontm1

    According to the information here those part numbers are interchangeable and are really the same card.
    It is really odd that on that page it states:
    Description
    Add BlueTooth to your iMac G5 17" & 20" Mac with this Apple part.
    But then does not include any iMac G5 in the compatibility information:
    Compatibility
    Power Mac G5, eMac (USB 2.0), iMac (17-inch Flat Panel, 1GHz), iMac (USB 2.0), Power Mac G4 (FW 800), Power Mac G5 (June 2004), Power Mac G5 (June 2004), Power Mac G5 (Late 2004), Mac mini**.
