Where to buy imac G5 LCD display 17in

Hi,
I need to replace my imac G5 display. It develops two approx 1.5in black blobs at the bottom left screen, after rainwater got into it and seep into it.
I have dismantled the imac and got access to the LCD. Remove the rust spots on the frame and check that it is dry. Put everything back but I dont seem able to remove the blobs and some vertical lines.
The problem is confined to the right half of the screen..and the blobs and vertical lines are stable (not growing).
I think if I replace with a good LCD display, I should be able to get back my Imac into shape.
Anyone has experience replacing the imac G5 LCD. (D-I-Y).

  • Where to buy imac compatible dual layer discs?

    I am trying to find out where I can buy imac (intel core 2 duo) compatible dual layer DVD discs! Amazing, I can't find anything anywhere, either on the Apple store online or in the actual retail stores, or any other retail stores for that matter! Where can I get something that is reliable good quality and imac compatible??
    Miklos.

    There's no "compatible" disks. Any DL +R media will do, though not all brands are as good as others.
    Around here (New England) you can find dual-layer DVD+R in supermarkets, music stores, electronics stores (Circuit City, Best Buy, ...), computer stores (CompUSA, MicroCenter, mom and pop, ...), and business supply stores (OfficeDepot, Staples, OfficeMax, etc.). Lots of bookstores round these parts carry it too (though plain DVD+R is more common).
    As far as bands, Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden are always pretty reliable quality. i usually tell people to avoid Sony. That said, 1/2 of my media are cheap CompUSA branded (don't know who makes it), and most of the rest are Memorex -- but only because I got them at a huge discount (CompUSA round here closed and I got the already cheap media in a 50 disc spindle for next to nothing).

  • Original Thinkpad X1 Cracked Glass - Where to buy a replacement LCD?

    I have a Thinkpad X1 that started with a hairline crack in the glass, which then spread to the entire screen.   I sent it to Lenovo after being told it was covered under warranty, and was then quoted $750 for the repair. Obviously I'm having it sent back.  I would have no problem replacing the screen myself, but I can't find it anywhere. The actual LCD underneath the glass is undamaged, but it appears that the LCD/Glass comes as one part,  and cannot be purchased separately. Lenovo lists the part (LCD Assembly) as 04W1768, which turns up very few results in a google search. .Lenovo does list it for sale for $450 or so, but it's out of stock. The rest of the online stores I've found just list an X1 13.3" screen (Not the part number) and show a stock picture and can't verify whether the glass is included. 
    Does anyone know where to find a replacement screen, or have any experience with this issue on an X1? I've spent hours searching, and this is the most difficult to find PC part I've ever encountered!
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!

    I bought my speakers today from the US. I live in Bulgaria, and we have 220V instead of 110V and our plugs also have two round "sticks" instead of the flat vertical US ones (sorry, I'm a complete rookie - my dad would be so ashamed of me now).
    Are the power cords the same for all models of speakers?
    Are the power cords standard, meaning if I buy a standard cord (from a regular electrical shop) that adapts from 220V to 8V (the voltage of my speakers), will it work?
    Thanks in advance.

    I need a Front LCD Display Screen Touch Digitizer Assembly Frame for Iphone 4S Black, where can i buy it ? can i it by website? what ? thanks

    Anywhere you can find it via the obvious Google search. It won't be from Apple, but will be a generic replacement.
    Why are you throwing away any future chances of out of warranty replacements when you drop or drown it?  Apple will give you a warranteed replacement phone for $199 (in the US, roughly the same in your country)

  • LCD Display Slightly Rotated Within iMac

    I have a very subtle problem with my new 21.5-inch iMac, but it's disturbing me.
    The LCD display is very slightly rotated clockwise within the body of the iMac. The top row of pixels is not totally parallel with the top line of the iMac. The top-left side of the LCD display is 2.6 cm from the top line of the iMac, whereas the top-right side is 2.7 cm.
    I know it's just 1 mm, no big deal right? But I wonder, is this something that Apple would repair free of chair, given that the iMac is well within its 1-year warranty? Or am I just being too picky?
    Message was edited by: Reuben Feffer

    Can anyone offer any advice?
    Is it common for the LCD panel inside a Mac to be slightly out of alignment, compared to the glass panel? I think the same degree of rotation is more noticeable on an iMac, compared to a MacBook, because the screen is so much wider/longer. What I mean by that is, the same angle of rotation on a MacBook would make one side of the LCD panel less than a 1 mm lower than it should be (i.e. immeasurable).
    But, is 1 mm out something that Apple would happily fix, or am I just being too fussy a customer, expecting too much perfection?

  • Problem with LCD display on 17" iMac G4

    The LCD display on my iMac went wacky on me yesterday. It's as though one of the three primary colors no longer works. The screen has a green tinge to it, and anything that's supposed to be black shows up as green. I've reset everything, run the Hardware Tools diagnostics (no problems found), and changed resloutions, monitor depth, and brightness levels many times. No luck. The screen is readable although very ugly.
    Obviously I can take it to an Apple Store, but does anyone have any idea what it might be? I've searched the net and the forums and can't find anything close, but I know I can't be the only one to experience this problem. I called a mac repair shop a few minutes ago, and they said that the logic board would need to be replaced. I just can't believe that because nothing else is a problem.
    Please help. Thanks.
    17" iMac G4 1Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I "fixed" the problem a few days ago. Digging around here in the forums, I found another thread that gave explicit instructions on how to open the iMac and re-seat the connections. Here is the link (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=196785&start=30&tstart=30). It's a post from Androcles made on 3/26/06.
    Just as he indicates, when I did this I found nothing to be loose at all, however upon putting it all back together, on the 2nd re-boot all was back to normal and still is. It's amazing how clear and crisp the screen is after suffering through the green hue for a few weeks...
    Good luck, and feel free to ask me for help if necessary.

  • Hooking iMac to external display when LCD is broken

    Per the Genious bar people at the Apple store, the LCD display on my iMac is broken.  She told me I could hook it up to an external display and use it or I could get it fixed.  I decided to hook it up to an external display, but from searching other forumns, it looks like it is only extending what is on my desktop and not mirroring it because all I see is the background of my desktop, no icons.  Apparently, I need to go into System preferences and change something.  How can I do this if nothing is showing on the iMac LCD display?  Is there a shortcut key on the keybord or something?

    CMD F1 was the keyboard shortcut....

    You might find a better deal on eBay from a highly rated seller.
    I've also had a good experience with this place, who might have it.

    They also have an eBay store. I checked out all the possibilities, including the one you were just given, and cwi was the best price-wise. For what I needed, same seller, the direct one linked above was less expensive than their eBay store.

  • 17" Studio LCD Display connect to G3

    I recently purchased a 17" Studio LCD Display which came with an ADC to DVI adapter.
    Then I picked up an adapter, but it was the wrong kind. It was DVI to VGA which still required the present VGA/G3 adapter ... the connection was going through three adapters that way. The monitor didn't light up. When I pressed the On/Off button (bottom right on front of display) the button lit up while my finger was on it and then faded to dark when I removed my finger. The system did not recognize the connection on the pci card either. I was able to hook everything up physically but the display didn't go on.
    When I plugged the UBS pigtail in, my system could see and recognize the monitor on the UBS port. So apparently, the driver software won't be a problem.
    Rather than putzing with adapters and connectors, I'd prefer to swap out the VGA card with a DVI video card for the G3. Is there such a video card available for the G3?
    Is this even feasible?
    The reason I need to keep this G3 is because it has a SCSI port (running Classic 9.2.2) which I require for an expensive high end scanner. Until I can find a comparable unit compatible with my new iMac I'd like to keep the G3 but would really like to hook up the lcd display on it.
    Any ideas?

    Exactly my problem too (and many others surely!)
    I have a macbook and a 17" LCD studio display which has a plug with 30 pins. As understand it, it is a DVI-I dual ink.
    I was about to buy the DVI adaptor from the mac store as it would appear to do the job but I learned that it is DVI-D and not DVI-I as is required. I searched for another picture of this adaptor (the pic on the mac store is decidely unhelpful) and it is clear from looking at it that it will not fit.
    Anyone know what to do here?

  • Convert iMac to LCD Monitor

    I wont be doing it for a few years yet, but I was just wondering if it was possible to convert the 1G Aluminum iMac to a standalone LCD monitor. Because it was a beautiful screen in it and would like to use it on my new computer once the iMac is useless. Is it possible?

    It's "possible," given sufficient electrical hacking skills. It would be a difficult and ugly process. In other words, there is no plug on the iMac that turns it into an regular display.
    would like to use it on my new computer once the iMac is useless
    By the time that iMac is "useless" as a computer, the lamps lighting the LCD will have dimmed somewhat, so the display may not look quite as great as it does now. When you do get a new computer that needs a display, it is likely that the iMac will still be more valuable than a reasonable LCD display. Sell the iMac and buy a new bright LCD. Or better yet, get the 8-core 10 GHz iMac with Mac OS 11.x that will be the new model by that time.

  • Connecting an Apple 17" LCD Display to my PowerBook

    Hello
    I'm a complete novice at displays and I need some very basic advice!
    I'm thinking of getting an Apple 17" LCD Display off eBay. I know I need a connector/adapter and these seem to be also available on eBay although they do seem to vary from about £4 to £30! Do I need other connectors - say for power? What are the combined power connectors I've seen? I want to link it to my 550 Powerbook Titanium.
    Is there a specific connector I need? What do I need to look out for? Is there a reason why they vary in price? Is/was there an Apple part number I can look out for?
    Also, can I use the same connector to link up a non Apple display?
    What do people think about Formac flat panels?
    Any thoughts on what's best?
    Thanks Russ

    Hi, Russ. The Apple Studio Display 17" LCD (with a
    clear acrylic case) connects to a Mac through its ADC
    port, which is designed to feed video data, USB, and
    power to the display through a single cable. Your
    550MHz Tibook has a VGA-out port, which does not
    supply power to a connected display, nor does it
    supply USB to enable the USB port(s) on the display.
    Apple's system requirements for the Studio Display
    include an ADC or DVI port on the computer driving
    the display. Your Powerbook model has neither, so I
    suspect it can't drive the Studio Display at all.

    isplay17LCD.html
    All other LCD displays I've ever seen offered for
    less than $2000 are distant runners-up to Apple's
    LCDs in image quality. I don't recall whether I've
    ever seen a Formac LCD, but I would expect it to be
    comparable to the general run of the low-end LCD
    marketplace, i.e., cheaper than Apple's offerings and
    far inferior to them.
    When actual selling prices for identical items on
    Ebay vary widely, it generally reflects limited
    demand, variable supply, and differences in patience
    from one buyer to another. Someone who feels a need
    to "buy it now" will gladly pay a premium; someone
    who can take it or leave it this time and is happy to
    wait for a better deal next time an identical item
    comes up won't pay anywhere near as much.
    Thanks eww. But can I get an adapter which plugs into my vga port and converts to dvi? As I said in my post, I'm a no-hoper on all this stuff but I'm sure I've seen somewhere that Powerbooks like mine can display through an external monitor.
    I mentioned the 17" Apple display because I (like you) think they are the best. I'm not too bothered about the extra USB on the screen but what you say about power also is a problem Can I get a power supply as well as a connecting adapter?
    PS - I was also hoping to be ale to use the Apple display to give me a better view when using my G3 iMac DVSE but it looks that's a gonner too!!

  • Using iMac as external display with MBP, can this be done?

    I know...
    This has been posted before, but I have as of yet not found a straight answer. Mostly peoples recommendation is: "Buy a display".
    However, I have an older iMac, 20" and I have a newer MBP 15". The MBP has a faster graphics card, better processor and more RAM. But I still like sitting at the table using my iMac, because the comfort of working is better this way.
    Now seeing that I have both, is it possible to connect the two, and use the iMac for a display? Preferably without having to buy a whole lot of expensive cables, applications or do strange hacks risking hurting myself or my computers
    Thanks all
    Have a nice day

    but I have as of yet not found a straight answer.
    I think you are getting the straight answer. You need "buy a display" because a display has a video input port. An iMac has a video output port, but NO video input port. Therefore, you cannot use it as an external display, like a regular display.
    You could give the iMac a video input using a USB interface device, but the cost of such a device that would provide good quality video into the iMac would cost about the same as (or more than) a low cost LCD display. And it would probably not be ideal in terms of performance.
    You could also use this clever program to use a fast network connection and VNC to display the MacBook Pro's second screen on the iMac screen.
    http://www.screenrecycler.com/home.html
    In your case, the program will create a virtual screen for the MacBook Pro and shares it with the iMac in much the same way as the +screen sharing+ feature. Disadvantages are relatively slow image refresh rate (because the signal is going over the network) and the need to have the iMac turned on and running separately. The speed part will not be that bad in your case, if you use a Cat-5e or better Ethernet cable to connect the two Macs, so that you will have gigabit speed. You can give it a try at no cost to see if it is an acceptable solution (in time-limited demo mode).
    I use this program to give my iMac a third display. The +third display+ is an old PC laptop running Linux (Ubuntu).
