Various iMac problems: reboot and upgrade
Please help:
My school unearthed a old iMac, and intends on loading it with a language software, and it fell to me to make it work. From the files I could find ( I am not very familiar with the OS it was running, the only Mac I use is OSX) _it is from 2003-ish, and is running OS 9_. Here are the problems with which I need your help.
1. It is S L O W . It took 15 minutes to bring up the hard drive and look at the file headers on it. Dragging anything to the trash freezes everything (including the clock) for about 1-2 minutes. Any good way of fixing this? Will rebooting the hard drive to factory settings work? *How would I do that?*
2. The software the school ordered needs OS X. What is the (cheapest) and best way to upgrade, and which version should I look for?
Thank you very much for your help,

You can find out lots of information in Mac OS 9 System Profiler:
Apple > Apple System Profiler
Click on the System tab
Look in the Memory Overview & Machine speed. The machine speed will give us the exact iMac model.
Checking the firmware.
Figuring out what level of firmware you have.
1) Mac OS 9.x or 8.x, you need to use the Apple System Profiler.
Apple -> Apple System Profiler
2) Open Firmware, boot into Open Firmware.
Power on your iMac while holding down commandoption+of
The first output line contains the firmware level. Mine reads:
Apple PowerMac4,1 4.1.9f1 BootRom built on 09/14/01 at 13.18.04
Copyright 1994-2001 Apple Computer Inc.
On my machine, I have 4.1.9f1.
What firmware do you need?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
Also, why would I replace a battery? It works fine, and is a desktop, so it has a power chord.
Some of the iMac machines do not boot without a working battery, and you get the wrong time. If you have the machine open, you might as well replace it.
You can replace the batter by going through the memory slot. It's tricky.

With the Ipod touch it requires 3 x clicking to the touch screen rather than 1 for all interactions. I have updated software, all apps, rebooted and reset but still doing it. Any suggestions very welcome.
All good - as per "Single click on touch screen doesn't work" problem. The VoiceOver under Settings/general/accessibility was set to "on".
When you turn this off, the ipod resorts to one touch instantly. -

IMac suddenly reboots and most app quit functioning properly
Hi,
i think I can link the following to updating Skype to the latest. After install, iMac rebooted abnormally with problem reporting window. It actually rebooted at leaat ten times in a row. Even when I wanted to shutdown it would reboot (thus restart on its own). Then I realized that Twitter would open an problem reporting window but would not start. Same for Thunderbird. iTunes re-initialized with no content. I then started adding some album to library and stopped after some ten albums. I quit-ed it, renamed the iTunes folder (where the library xml sits) and restarted iTunes with the ten albums still there. Then added the library xml as playlist which it digested but still not recreating the iTunes folder at its original place. Where is it? iPhoto asked to repair the library but got stuck in the middle of the process. No idea whether I would loose photos. I am completely puzzled by the behavior. What could have gone wrong? Is that a virus?
My configuration includes an SSD (with OSX Yosemite and Apps) and an HD (for data). I have been backing up on a Time machine. Can I re-image the machine as it was, i.e. SSD and HD, automatically from the Time machine? What is the process?
Thanks for your help.
PIerreThanks Linc. There are loads of entries in the left tree. A lot of .diag, .crash and some .awd.
Below I list the panic report I had saved yesterday (though I do not see it in the "DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports" list) as well as the first .crash I see at the bottom of the list. I wanted to list all files via Terminal but Terminal refuses to launch.
I shall launch in safe mode.

Apple Teal iMac (1998) restore and upgrade opts?
I found this 1998 Teal Original iMac
This is what it came with:
Claris Works 5.0 (with 2 manuals as well)
iOmegaware 6.x software and books
Faxstf 5.0 book and software
MacDraw Pro book/manual
Quicken for Macintosh 98 softare with manual/guide
The iMac Book
Easy iMac book (color guide for the OS)
Cliff Notes "Using Your First Mac"
FileMaker Pro users guide
Claris Filemaker II manual
Belkin 4 port USB hub (I needed one of those too!)
Install and restore disc Version OS 8.1
William Sonoma Good Cooking disc (it's all recipes!! Perfect for me)
Quicken Deluxe 98 Software
MDK (some kind of game)
Kai's Photosoap/Photoshop disc and programs
It also came with the owners personal notes and records of items and books purchased. It also has a nice recipe collection from the 82 yr retired county school worker how owned this before me. She seemed like a very sweet lady, all her stuff is still on it. She was very involved it seems with her church and her family. It was just an added bonus for me. I found reading her letters sweet. I might contact her famliy or church and make them a book of her recipes. The computer was acquired via an estate sale right after Christmas and I bought it yesterday for $75 bucks. I've done a little reading online and I have read I can do various updates to it.
My question is what is the max you can add to this? I have heard various answers for which OS you can actually put on it.
This one comes with OS 8.1 and I have the restore and install disc.This is a tray loading iMac. They came out in the from '98 to '00. You can run Mac OS 10.3 on the machine. With a little xpostfacto hac, you will bee able to run 10.4. You can add a maximum of 512meg of memory. Apple will say 256meg.
The screen tends to go bad on these machine. The harddrive is past do for replacement.
This could be the original iMac g3. It is the right color. Could be a colletors item.
Look for the system profiler. Click on the apple icon in the tope left. Look for about this mac> more info. Or, look for system profiler. This will give yu more details abou the mac.
it does have a 10/100 ethernet port.
iCab - The Taxi for the Internet
http://www.icab.de/
Mac OS 9
Classilla is a free, open source browser for Mac OS 9
classilla.org
You may run Mac OS 10.3 on this machine. Mac OS X takes about 4gig. You can trim it down to 3gig with a custom install.
This will require a minimum of 128meg of ram. More is better. I'd suggest 256. You may put 512meg of ram in this machine. There are two memory slots. One must be Low Profile memory. Be sure you can return your memory cards. iMac memory cards are finicky.
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac-G3-G4/
You should verify that you have the latest firmware, before installing new software. See the system profiler for details. What firmware do you need?

Open Firmware, boot into Open Firmware.

All the tray loading iMac g3's, models a-d, are constructed the same.
While this article deals with adding memory, you should see the pram battery on the logic board when you get to step 17.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=43012
You should skip steps 17 to 20. Look for the pram battery instead.

The second article in this series has information on replacing the battery:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2584291
How To Upgrade Your iMac
http://www.djonmac.com/
The tray loading iMac requires the boot partition to be within 8gig. Since there are hidden partitions before the first visible partition, people recommend that you make the first visible partition 7.5 gig to 7.9gig. The machines support upto a 128gig Parallel ATA drive.
You should be able to use Unix symbolic links to 'move' some directory like /Users to the second visible partition.

Intel iMac freezes, reboots and other issues
Intel iMac 17" 1.83 Ghz model (Had for a while now)
1 GB of 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM installed (Mac detects this fine)
Mac OS X 10.4.8
Beginning yesterday, the Mac froze when shutting World of Warcraft (which had been installed and working for at least two months). Computer completely hung. Restarted machine.
A few minutes later, the machine just switched itself off (or appeared to) - screen goes black. I held in power button for five seconds until I heard a click in the machine. This has happened repeatedly.
One time, the machine froze and the monitor refreshed at a visible rate (I could see the scan line) - each time the screen got darker.
Often, it will turn on, but the OS won't load unless I hold Alt down, or if I use OptionAlt+PR.
Ran disk utility from the install disk, only minor issues, all fixed. The problem of turning off still occurred.
Nothing in the kernel panic log. Diagnostics in System Profiler is saying it passes on the power on self test.
The confusing thing is, that after last night, I pulled the plug out, went to bed, praying to the computer fairy to fix it. This morning, it ran fine continuously for about 8 hours, running WoW, IRC app, iTunes etc. all fine.
Could it be a power supply issue? Is the thing overheating (the Mac is up to date with EFI Firmware update and SFC Firmware update).
I'm utterly stumped as to what's causing it. I don't want to send the thing off as then I'm without a computer.
Any ideas or advice?Has it done it since?

My iMac shout down during a power failure... When power came back I started my computer but half way during the reboot the power when down again.
Now when I try to reboot my iMac, I can see the horizontal display during the reboot but at the end of the reboot the computor shut down...
I tried to start in safe mode (holding shift key down) but having a wireless keyboard ... It does'nt work!!!
What can I do?
Robert334Hi Robert, Might need a USB KB.
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions. -
IMac keeps rebooting and not starting what to do?
My iMac (intel) continues to attempt a start up, a grey screen comes up with the apple logo and the wheel spins. Then restarts and does the same. Early this morning it did this over and over again. Now it is stuck on that screen with the apple logo and spinning wheel freezes up. I've tried many things suggested in my iMac manual. Just tried the hold option key and power on button. Disk Utility appears on screen. Mac HD and Recovery. 10.8.4. Not sure what to do now. Any thoughts?
astarrInstall or Reinstall Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless. -
I just upgraded my iMac to Lion, and a few seconds ago, I upgraded the iWork package and now I'm having some problems with the new version of Pages (4.1) When I try to change something in a document, a message says "the program is not responding", so I have to force it to close. By the way, the SAVE botton stays the same even I change erverything in my document. Please, a have a work to finish, **** me. What I can do abou it?

Intel iMac; upgraded adobe flash; bluetooth keyboard no longer pairs but magic mouse still OK. With Bluetooth switched on the screen splits into 4 areas and open windows seperate and shrink. Switch off Bluetooth and problem disappears and iMac works OK with plug-in keyboard and mouse
Hi, Derek -
...the screen splits into 4 areas and open windows seperate and shrink.
Sounds like Spaces is being activated somehow. With the wired keyboard and mouse in use, select the Exposé & Spaces control pane in System Preferences, click the choice in that pane for Spaces. See what the settings are. There are some activation settings in that pane - by default, F8 activates it.
It could be that the bluetooth keyboard has some stuck keys and is activating Spaces; or that the activation command has somehow been reset to something that the bluetooth mouse, or bluetooth itself, is triggering. -
IMac G3 won't boot after updating the firmware and upgrading the OS!
Hi! Everyone,
I have an iMac G3 333MHz (five flavors) which comes with 192MB of RAM and 6GB of hard drive. Originally, it was OS 8.5.1 installed, later upgraded to OS 9.2.2. Of course, the firmware has been updated by the appropriate method provided by the on-screen instructions before the installation of 9.2.2. After successfully updating the firmware and installing Mac OS 9.2.2, the system booted up and worked fine. However, after shutting it down and powering it up a few days later, I have encountered a critical problem:
1. At first, the iMac would chime and displayed a smiley-mac finder face.
2. No question mark appeared and the system halted because it stayed at the same screen for about 5 minutes! Also, the keyboard wouldn't respond. For instance, the LED signal light wouldn't light on when Caps Lock was pressed.
3. I assumed that this is just a typical crash and rebooted the machine via the "reset" button on the right side of the machine.
4. After restarting, well, no luck, the same condition. Therefore, I rebooted it again by using the method mentioned above.
5. The condition of sticking at the smiley-mac finder face occurred again! However, this time the iMac wouldn't chime and just displayed the mac face.
6. Another restart, well, it was getting worse... no chime and no smiley-mac finder face but a white screen.
7. I was frustrated then and shut the machine down forcefully by rebooting it again and pressing on the power bottom quickly before the screen appears. Also, I unplugged the power cord.
---------- After a few hours later ----------
8. Okay, I then plugged the power cord in and booted it up again, this time, it would chime but stuck at the white screen. => No smiley-mac finder face appeared!
9. Rebooted it again, the result was as same as step 8.
10. Another restart, the smiley-mac face finally appeared but still... stuck here and this time, no chime.
11. I then shut the machine forcefully by using the method mentioned above and let the machine rest for about a day with the power cord unplugged.
---------- After resting for a day ----------
12. I booted it up and it would chime, but no screen (the power button was orange, not green). I then forcefully shut down the machine.
13. Waited for about a minute and powered it up. This time, I tried to clear the PRAM, but no chime and gave me a white screen. => No luck! As mentioned, the keyboard's LED signal light wouldn't light on even though the Caps Lock key has been pressed.
*Note: The keyboard has been tested on the other computers and it worked. Also, I tried different USB ports to plug the keyboard in. => The USB ports were all in working condition, as I can know from the last successful start up.
14. Forcefully shut the machine down and tried to enter the Open firmware, no luck. It didn't enter and gave my a white screen.
15. Conclusion:
1) After resting for a while, the iMac would chime.
2) Rebooting too much times would cause the machine not to chime and leaded the screen to become white instead of the smiley-mac finder face.
3) However, rebooted the machine when the screen became white, the smiley-mac finder face would appear again without chime.
By the way, I could hear the hard disk spinning up so that means the hard disk is working.
Can anyone help me solve this problem? Is it related to the firmware update? Any suggestions will be appreciated! Thanks!
AndyOK, I will try replacing the PRAM battery. Also, the PowerMac G3 and the other iMac 233MHz had the dead batteries. They are still working though... Should I replace them along with the iMac 333MHz? In case of not replacing, will they malfunction in future times? There are some symptoms on this two machines: 1. iMac 233MHz - No chime and no sound when adjusting system volume (the bi sound is not available), but iTunes and other applications can still use the audio device and output the sound via internal speakers; 2. PowerMac G3 450MHz - Will chime but sometimes hard to boot: 1) Chime but no screen; 2) No respond after pressing the power button => the power signal light won't light on. Every time I experienced this, I would open its case, pressing a small button (not quite understand what it does... anyway, just works if system halted.) near the PRAM battery and wait for about a minute, then close the case, and it boots. However, I have to reset "Date & Time"...

iPhone 5 pixelated images in various apps problem- occurred within last 2 months and must be a result of apple network driver update
What's the fix?
Tried reset, restart, reboot, reopen of apps same problemWhat do you mean by reboot? Do you mean restore? Because if you haven't restored, then that's the next step. You'll need a computer with the latest version of iTunes and a USB connector.

Sibelius 7.5 can't find "sounds library", I reinstalled and upgraded as Sibelius online help suggested but to no avail. Anyone have any ideas? My display speakers do work.
Thanks,
JccnwmacOk, problem fixed, if not solved. A very helpful Apple tech walked me through opening terminal and entering a sudo command line that established my user name as the owner with owner access. Like magic, everything reverted back to original state of affairs.
Reviewing the console log of the error, it started when I tried to wake up the iMac from sleep with network access from another Mac, which should not have been a problem. This is in the category of "Who knows?" If there is a repeat, I'll come back here and post it. -
I recently installed Mavericks on this iMac and upgraded to Adobe Cloud 2014 now InDesign CC 2014 fails to launch and I get a crash report. Has this happened to anyone else?
It isn't happening to everyone else, but if there was a trend of it happening to a lot of people, that would probably show up in the official InDesign user forum. But there aren't a lot of crash reports there, so it isn't something that's happening to everyone. There are a couple, so you might look at those. But since there is not a huge wave of crash reports, the problem might be more related to a problem on the system rather than a problem with InDesign, like a corrupted font.
The best place to troubleshoot is probably over at the Adobe forum since the users there know InDesign very well. -
I upgraded iMac to Yosemite, and my Adobe CS5 products (Photoshop, dreamweaver, etc) would not open. A message popped up saying I needed to load Java SE 6. The Apple Tech support person had me select all the Java folders and files in my library and delete the. I then downloaded Java 7. However, nothing happens when I click on the program icon. I went to reinstall the products, but the activation code was not valid (even though I got it off the Adobe site for my products with Adobe). I tried to install just one product (Illustrator) in the trial mode, but still nothing happens. How can I get my Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver and other programs to work?
some (like illustrator cs5 appear to be incompatible with yosemite, at least, according to some users - http://roaringapps.com/apps:table).
for the rest, check at the above link.
if others have had success, your best option would be to uninstall, clean and then reinstall per Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
