What type of screwdriver do I need to install AirPort/Bluetooth Card  A1126

My airport extreme card was causing kernel panics, and I discovered one antenna wire was unplugged, but without unscrewing the card, I'm unable to plug the antenna back in. My question is what type of screwdriver do I need to unscrew the card? I have a 17" iMac G5 without the built in iSight and the layout is exactly like the one pictured in this DIY guide : http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacG517inchharddrive.pdf
Thanks for any help you can provide! :-D

Thank you for the link, but they only list a DIY install guide for the original iMac G5. My airport/bluetooth card is very similar/almost exact to the card found in the iSight iMac G5s.
My logic board layout looks exactly like this http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacg517inch_PowerSupply.pdf as opposed to http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacG517inchAirPort.pdf where the airport card is much larger and doesn't require a special screwdriver for replacement. I'm not really in need of install instructions, but rather what specific screwdriver/allen wrench is needed to get the card off the board.
thank you guys for any info you can provide...

  • What update or driver do I need to install airport express to MacBookPro?

    I own a Powerbook G4 and just recently bought a MacBookPro. I bought an airport extreme with my powerbook 2 years ago. So the software that came with the express is a bit dated. Which update or driver do I need for it to work on my new computer?
    MacBookPro   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Also own a PowerbookG4

    Hello Chefooh, and welcome to discussions.
    If you have purchased an airport extreme wth your powerbook several years ago, i would suggest running software update to bring your G4 up to date. the most recent release of airport is v4.2, found here-
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42formacosx1042.html
    For mac OS X Tiger, or for Panther, here-
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42formacosx1033.html
    The macbook Pro comes with Airport(and bluetooth) built in, and since you have 10.4.6 installed, i would think you are up to date there. However, a quick check of the software update will confirm this for you.
    Best of luck, and hope it all goes smoothly.

  • For the new airport extreme what type of cable do I need to connect to my cable modem. Is Cat5 OK or will that bottle neck things?

    For the new airport extreme what type of cable do I need to connect to my cable modem. Is Cat5 OK or will that bottle neck things?

    Assuming that your cable modem has Gigabit Ethernet ports (possible, but it probably does not) Cat 5e or Cct 6 would do the job that you need.
    If the cable modem is using a 10/100 Mbps port, then Cat5 will be OK.

  • What type of modem do i need for time capsule. I can't get it to pick up the net

    what type of modem do i need for time capsule. I can't get it to pick up the net

    Simply bridge the TC..
    With DSL you need to either bridge the modem and use PPPoE client which can be difficult to setup.. especially as some modems do not bridge readily..
    Or bridge the TC which is simple.. go to the airport utility and select internet page, on v5 utility or network page on v6 utility and select off-bridged mode for the mode of connection.

  • What is rootpre.sh, why we need to install

    Hi,
    What is rootpre.sh, why we need to install it. If we don't install what happens. Is it necessary to install it in AIX systems.
    Thanks,
    Mahi

    Hi,
    What is rootpre.sh, why we need to install it. rootpre.sh ... [run  as] root [to] pre[pare the system]
    You do not install rootpre.sh, you run it to prepare the AIX machine for an Oracle install. You run it only once, before the first install of any Oracle product on the AIX system.
    If we don't install what happens. You will be attempting to install Oracle on an unprepared environment. Unless you prepare the system manually.
    Is it necessary to install it in AIX systems.Try it. Let us know.

  • I am installing a Bluetooth card in my PowerPC G5.  The screws that came with it are too small.  Is it neecessary to screw the card in place? Is there some type of electrical/ground connection made?  Thanks Jack

    Do I need to Screw the Bluetooth Card in place in my G5?  Is there some/electrical/ground connection made with the screws?
    Thanks, Jack

    Depending on the exact build model (identified) the parts can vary, so without knowing
    what PPC G5 (assuming tower in this discussion) you have, the screws should fit if the
    part is correct. And the item should be attached so it won't move or short against the
    other electrical components.
    In the original configuration, BT & AirPort cards were dealer installed or CTO accessories.
    And the metal case could affect the range of either of these wireless cards; in several
    instances there also was an antenna upgrade as part of the kit.
    Which G5 tower do you have?
    If not an aluminum tower, that'd be a another ASC discussion.
    Could be you acquired the part for a different sales model number or build variable.
    Can the seller match your product serial number with the bluetooth part?
    In any event...
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • What type of mac do i need for home use to watch and edit videos

    What type / power of MAC do i need for home use to watch and edit vedeos as well as basic computer work?

    Any of the new Macs for home - iMac or MacBook Pro are even fine. You don't need a 65lb workstation tower. If you want a tower for how well and long they hold up, and can be upgraded, that is another matter and fine and might be overkill at first.
    Even the base Mac Pro will get you there.

  • What type of license do i need to buy?

    I'm going to apply diskless desktop system to my class with 2012 server. See below detail explains for 2012 server
    what type of license (EX:Windows7) do I need to buy for diskless desktop?

    iSCSI Target Boot Overview
    Feature description : By using differencing virtual hard (VHDs). you can use a single operation system image
    (the "master image) to boot up to 256 computers. As an example, let's assume that you deployed Windows Server 2008 R2
    HPC with an operating system image of approximetely 20GB, and you used two mirrored disk drivers to act as the boot
    volume. You would have needed approximately 10TB of storage for only the operating system image to boot 256 computers.
    Wiht iSCSI Target Server, you will use 40 GB for the operating system base image, and 2 GB for differencing virtual hard disks
    per server instance, totaling 552GB for the operating system images. This provides a savings of over 90% on storage for the
    operating system
    images alone.

    Hi,
    Regarding the issue here is related with license, we'd better make a contact with the Microsoft licensing team.
    Worldwide customers can use the Guide to Worldwide Microsoft Licensing Sites
    http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/worldwide.aspx to find contact information in their locations.
    Thank you for your understanding.

  • HT4259 I am trying to connect airport express to extend the range of my airport tower. What type of cords do I need to connect the airport express to a hardwired outlet in the wall of a bedroom?

    I am trying to connect my airport express to extend the range of my network to a bedroom that is hard wired for internet. What type of cord/cords do I need to do that?

    You can connect the AirPort Express to the wall port in the bedroom for the setup.....but first....if you have not already done so.....it would be a great idea to make sure that the connection in the bedroom is working correctly.
    To do that, turn off the wireless on a laptop and connect the laptop directly to the wall port in the bedroom using an Ethernet cable. Make sure that the laptop can get a good Internet connection that way.  If it can, this tells you that the cabling is working correctly, so the Express will work well when you connect it up.
    If you don't have a laptop with an Ethernet port, then we'll have to assume that the folks that pulled the cables and installed the jacks tested things as part of the installation.
    When you are ready to install the Express, you can use an iPhone or iPad if you have one handy for the setup.

  • What type of Mac do I need please?

    Hi ,
    I would like some advice on the type of Mac and Spec I need please for my business. I am unsure about whether I should get a macbook pro, imac or desktop mac pro. Most computer jargon goes straight over my head so please if you answer use small non technical words!!!
    This is what I need the computer for:
    1. Top quality Video Editing - Final Cut Pro. I will be using the computer for a lot of Video Editing. I need a computer that is capable of rendering video at fast speeds without compromising the performance too much.
    2. Multi-tasking - I want to be able to be working on photoshop, whilst encoding or compressing video, downloading something from the web and running a few programmes at the same time such as InDesign etc
    3. Disk Space - I will have a lot of video content (raw footage and edited that I need to store) but having said that, I'm guessing a slight upgrade to a 2TB hard drive would do.
    4. My business works with the latest Online Games such as World of Warcraft and so the Graphics Cards / Memory / Processor Speeds needs to be able to run these online MMORPGs at the optimal speeds, frame rates etc
    That is pretty much it. I am unsure about what type of Mac computer to get. My budget is tops £5k including VAT but I'd prefer not to spend that if I don't need to.....I just want a computer (27 inch screen) that can do all the above comfortably.
    Thanks very much for any help that is offered, much appreciated,

    MHz and GHz matter.
    Also, dual processor has overhead.
    6-core single processor is the equal or better and optimized even to an 8-core (which would be 2.93GHz and BTO$)
    Blame Apple for "hiding" the 6-core.
    Poor web site design: have a page for single processor configurations, not "Quad-core models" where there is BTO 3.33GHz for $1200 extra. Buy your own 2.8 and buy W3680 $600, then sell the 2.8, and you walk away with $900 saved.
    Buy the Special (not avail in UK) 2.8 for US$2119 and upgrade processor in under hour.
    Refurbished Mac Pro 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon - Apple Store (U.S.)
    Offer a dual processor 12-core @ 3.33GHz for the high end most demanding (and US$7.5K or more?)
    That is what MPG and OWC Mac Pro Turnkey Program can do. And MPG does sell custom configs configured and tested.
    I would never recommend 8-core at this point. You spend $6200 for 2.93GHz x 8, ($2500 more than 6-core and still 400MHz slower per core);  2.4GHz is a joke, and even the 2.66 US$5000 is not even close! Nope.
    Build a workstation, that's another matter and gets interesting if your primary apps and OS run on Windows.

  • What are the installer(setups) I need to install for webcenter Portal

    I use a 32bit laptop now and I want to start working on webcenter portal. What are the applications I need to install in order so I can successfully get my webcenter working. I already have installed Jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0
    Thanks

    This depends on what exactly you mean by 'my webcenter'.
    If all you want is develop your own webcenter applications (using the WebCenter Framework), you might be good to go only with the webcenter jdev plug-in (see http://www.oracle.com/ocom/groups/public/@otn/documents/webcontent/156082.xml#oracle.webcenter.app). Your apps will be deployed to the integrated WLS. There will be two important missing pieces:
    a) WebCenter Content as the document storage (requires also a database)
    b) BPEL/BPM as the workflow engine
    You might also want to install WebCenter Portal: Spaces, or deploy your apps to a separate WebCenter Portal server (running on its own Weblogic Server).
    Optionally, you might also want to utilize other servers contained in the WebCenter Portal license such as Secure Enterprise Search for enterprise searching and/or Oracle Access Manager for enabling single sign-on between the above mentioned components.
