TS1367 New iMac Power Switch

Is there a power button on the iMac?  Mine is not powering up when I plug in power cable.

  • Imac power switch

    Just purchased a new iMac yesterday. Has anyone had problems when pressing the power switch and you hear the chime, screen flashes, then goes black?
    It seems to only happen when I had it unplugged. After a few tries it powers up to the desktop.

    Hello TM:
    The chime (one) is normal.  That indicates the Mac has successfully performed a start up self-test.  The screen flash and the black screen is definitely not normal.  I would contact Apple at once (store or Applecare) and request a replacement under warranty.

  • New iMac power cable problem

    I have just bought a new iMac 21.5" and have a problem with the ac cable. I cant fit it all the way into the socket so that the circularplastic is flush against the back of the monitor. It goes about halfway, clicks into place but doesnt feel completely secure and wont go further in. Ive tried forcing but dont want to damage the machine. It just wont fit in correctly. The machine was receiving power even though the plug wasnt fully in. Is this a common problem with iMacs?

    No, but if it concerns you, that little circular piece of plastic will pop off if you press on it hard enough. It's purely cosmetic in nature. As you can clearly see from looking at the "business end" of the plug, it's just your bog standard AC cable. You can probably get a dozen of them for a few bucks just about anywhere.
    So you can either just pop that little plastic shield off, let it slide freely on the cable, or you can just use any other spare AC cables you may have around. There is absolutely nothing special about them. They're just three wires running along a plastic tube. Do not feel particularly beholden to any one cable.
    If you for some reason spend a lot of time looking at the back end of your iMac, you can always call Apple to get a replacement cable with the little shield. Odds are, they will put up no resistance to sending you a new one. They'd likely spend more money fighting with you on the phone over it than the cable costs.

  • Ipad New Generation - power switch on , not working.

    i am playing the games in ipad and idle for  2mins.The screen becomes black, thought it was just an automatic lock but i could not turn it on. It was 50% charged. The power switch is not working. what could be the problem?

    Try a reset:
    1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds
    2. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)

  • How to get a new iMac power cord?

    Hello All,
    I would like to have a new power cord for my iMac as mine is damaged, but I have no idea where I can get one... Anyone had such an issue before?
    Thank you

  • TS1367 Pressing iMac Power Button and nothing happens.

    I followed the steps to reset the SMC on my late 2013 iMac, and once I plugged back in the iMac chimed and immediately quit a couple times. When I pushed the button, it chimed, started to spin up, and shut back down. So it was progress, previously there had been nothing. Any ideas?

    Now the iMac is just chiming half a chime every few minutes and cutting back out. Weirdest thing is last night it did start and ran fine for hours.

  • Brand new iMac does not work wirelessly

    This is a very strange situation and I don't know how much to be concerned about it.
    6 weeks ago I bought the first of two brand new iMacs. We have two old G4s both wired into a Netgear wireless router, plus the printer. The first new iMac when switched on, immediately found the Netgear and has worked perfectly, wirelessly, ever since. As it should.
    Less than a week ago I bought the second new iMac, which is identical to the first. I put it on the _same desk_ as the Netgear, therefore a distance of only one foot. Straight out of the box, it worked wirelessly to register itself with Apple.
    Since then, it has only worked wirelessly very intermittently, and then very slowly indeed. I was wasting far too much time trying to figure out why the wireless did not work, and eventually wired it into the router too.
    I was attempting to set up a network with 2 old G4s wired in, and 2 new iMacs wireless. Now I have 3 wired in and one wireless.
    Is there something wrong with the second brand new iMac? Or is there some line I should be pursuing with Netgear?
    I have written all the IP addresses down in case anyone responding - and I sure hope SOMEONE responds! - thinks that this may be a clue.
    Many thanks in advance to all and any replies.

    Update: I'm posting this in case it helps others......
    I phoned the software support which comes free for 90 days with a brand new iMac.
    The bright young man there instantly knew what the problem was, because he'd seen it all before. There's nothing wrong with the iMac and it has nothing to do with IP addresses.
    I have to go into the Netgear configuration screen and Enable MAC filtering. This means I'll give the router the hardware addresses of the two iMacs and it will then allow both of them to communicate wirelessly - but no other devices which might be lurking in the vicinity.
    Sounds good to me.

  • TS1367 I have a new iMac and can't get it to turn? Can't find a power button?

    Have new iMac and it won't start up. Can't find a power button?

    Try to perform a HARD RESET on the printer first. Unplug the power cord from the printer, and leave it out for 30 seconds. Plug it back in, see if it aligns and finishes the job.
    After alignment, try to print a test page from the printer or make a copy. This job is to make sure that the HARDWARE of the printer is working correctly.

  • Power converter required for new iMac?

    I have taken my new iMac to Germany. The provided power cord does not have a converter like the Mac laptops have. Do I need to purchase a power converter that will step down the voltage when plugging into the outlets in Germany, or is there a control on the computer to adjust for the increased voltage?

    To add additional clarification, I understand that I will need a plug adapter and have used one before without issue for my macbook laptop as the provided cord allows for switching the plug end to match the european outlets. The converter box on the cord (the white box) then steps down the voltage so the laptop can run safely being powered by the 220v outlet. The new desktop iMac, as I mention above, has a cord without the converter box. I am concerned that if i just use a plug converter, the computer will not be able to handle the additional voltage.

  • How can I use microsoft word, power point and those apps in my new iMac ? i bought this iMac yesterday so am new on tho and i would like to know

    how can I use microsoft word, power point and those apps in my new iMac ? i bought this iMac yesterday so am new on tho and i would like to know

    If you absolutely must have the Microsoft applications, you can purchase and download them from http://microsoft.com/mac.
    Free software suites LibreOffice and OpenOffice offer similar functionality (word processing and spreadsheets).
    Or you could do worse than look at Apple's Pages, Numbers and Keynote, which should already be installed in your Mac and can export to Microsoft formats if need be.

  • New iMac 27"  and just plugged in a Apple USB superdrive and get message, "Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled."  I am trying to load Office mac2011  what to do?

    If you just bought the iMac and the Sjuperdrive take the superdrive back and get a refund. The by any other brand external DVD drive that connects by USB and try that. Most come with a Y USB cable to allow you to connect to 2 USB ports to supply enogh power to the drive IF Needed.
    Or take both back and get a refund on both, you have 14 days to return it no questions asked, and buy another iMac and some other brand external DVD drive.

  • I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

    Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

    I am using Photoshop CS5 on a new iMac with a wireless keyboard.  I used to be able to hit F11 to perform a custom sharpening action but now the F11 key is the volume control key and I have tried everything to disable or switch the volume key. I have also tried assigning other function keys to initiate the action. Is there a simple solution to this? What am I missing?

    Try unmounting the volume on your iMac using Disk Utility. Then mount it again. You may need to reboot the laptop or relaunch its Finder process (using the Force Quit window) after remounting the drive on your iMac. Remember that no process may be accessing any files on the drive you plan to unmount, or the unmount will fail. Unmounting and remounting an external drive on my iMac made it become visible on my MacBook Pro after it had disappeared.

  • Migrating Slot Loading iMac Power PC G3  Mac OS 10.4 to new iMac

    My 10 year old iMac has been taking way too long to start up and has been shutting down by it's self. Made the mistake of trying to do a complete back up (instead of an incremental back up) on my last back up, When that completely erased my back up drive and then failed to complete the back up, it left me with me with no back up to the drive in the iMac, I realized that I would have to actually spend money and get a new 21" iMac.
    I'm just starting to figure out that the new Intel based iMac may not be able to use or read all my Power PC files. And that maybe a straight migration may not work. Here is what I have done so far.
    I downloaded the "A Basic Guide to Migrating to Intel Macs". From Discussions.
    I managed to download my iPhoto library to an external drive.
    I tried to down load my iTunes library to an external Hard drive, but the iMac shut down in the middle of the download.
    My external drive has a Fire wire 400 and Fire wire 800 input.
    The old iMac has Fire Wire 400 input, the new iMac had fire wire 800 input.
    I'm going to get a Fire wire 400 to Fire wire 800 cable, and maybe a fire wire 800 to 800 cable.
    Here is what I would like to Migrate, in order of importance.
    1.Photos
    2.iTunes music.
    3.Address Book
    4.Pages and Word documents
    Anything else I could work around or live without.
    Any hints or suggestions? Should I transfer cookies?
    If I cannot transfer the files from the old iMac to the new, I'm considering taking out the hard drive from the old iMac and putting into an putting it in an external drive case, then trying to download from that. What do you think?

    A Brody;
    I actually downloaded the tips earlier. That's where I found out that migrating from the Motorola Power PS chip to the newer Intel chips was not going to be easy.
    Meanwhile my 10 year old iMac finally died. I tried to vacuum the inside in hopes that maybe dust was causing start up problems. When I put it back together it would not start at all. Went to plan "B" by tearing it apart again and removing the hard drive. I put it in the HD enclosure that was holding the original iMac 10 gig hard drive that I had pulled out years ago.
    When I plugged it in to the new imac, it looked like everything was there. I copied photos, itunes music and all the personal files I could find.
    Now I need to see if it possible to transfer play lists and book marks.
    From the article I can see where to find the files I need to transfer. I can see dragging the files to the new iMac desktop. But once it get it to the desk top, how can I get the information imported to where it needs to go? Instructions are not clear on that.
    The instructions say start the old mac in target disc mode, but of course the brains have been removed from the old iMac and is now a 200 gig external drive with questionable life expectancy.
    Thanks.

  • HI .. I have a new macmini 2.5 Ghz 10.7.3 Lion, had a problem today ,it froze so I could not shut down using mouse or tablet. used the power switch, when I tried to restart I got audible 'beeps' from it.

    HI ....I have a new macmini 2.5 Ghz 10.7.3 Lion, had a problem today ,it froze so I could not shut down using mouse or tablet pen. used the power switch, when I tried to restart I got audible 'beeps' from it. I managed to restart it but kept getting a message come up on one ot the dual screens ' restart using the power swich to turn it off , then press it again to restart.'
    This worked okay , but now it just keeps freezing whenever I start it up. I thought the issue could be my old Epson Expression 1680 scanner not being compatible , so I have unplugged it. I also had a look at the new memory I installed when I got it, but this seems not be the problem.
    It is connected up to an Eizo Flexscan S2231W using a cable straight into the HDMI input , the other monitor is a small Acer using the VGA into Thunderbolt port.
    When I turn the Eizo screen on first and then press the power button on the mac-mini, I hear the chime then the screen flahes the 'Digital no signal' message on and off for about 30 seconds , then the monitor comes on as normal. But it is still freezing up on me after using it for a while and I am having to use the power switch button to turn it off again.
    Can anyone help please.

    I really don't have an answer for that one. I guess that while trying to get things working correctly, I would use the most basic monitor I had which in your case would be the Eizon using the Thunderbolt port and adaptor.
    When you boot into Safe Mode the startup is quite slow, but you should get the Apple logo and then the spinning gear below it (release the SHIFT key when it appears.) Then after a little more time you should see a gray progress bar appear below the spinning gear. When that disappears the computer will startup to a login screen.
