  • dempson replied to the topic iMac G3 - help with taking it apart in the forums.
    I agree with advice that it is dangerous - the problem is the back of the CRT display, which has potentially lethal voltages exposed if you open up the top part of the case. Even if the computer has been disconnected from power for a long time, it can have large residual voltages sitting on the CRT. You need someone who knows how to safely discharge a CRT before opening that part of the case. Anyone trained in repairing old CRT TVs should be able to handle this safely. Disposing of the CRT safely is also tricky, as it is a vacuum tube, so it will implode if broken.

    I've never tried to open the top half of an iMac G3, but I have opened the bottom half to get access to components like the hard drive. There are two substantially different body designs, easily distinguished based on the style of optical drive. The earlier models have a tray-loading optical drive and the later ones have a slot-loading optical drive.

    The tray-loading models have a removable module which includes the CPU, main logic board, hard drive and optical drive. Removing this is relatively easy, but it can be tricky getting it back together again with the cables sitting in their channels, so it fits well.

    The slot-loading models need a little more effort to open, with the lower part of the outer body unclipping to gain access to the logic board, hard drive and optical drive.

    I'm sure there are general take-apart instructions on www.ifixit.com, at least to get as far as the logic board. They probably don't go as far as instructing how to access the CRT, so you may need to explore that on your own (with help for the safety aspects).

    Hi everyone!

    Total newb here, hoping to get some help from you all.

    I want to take apart my iMac G3; I want to keep the housing only and can dispose/give away all the internal components.

    How do I (safely) take it apart?

    I've read online that it would be dangerous to do it yourself unless you know what you're doing so would appreciate your advice or recommendations. Open to getting someone with the know-how to do it for a small fee

    Thanks very much in advance!!

  • jbakuwel created a new topic Re-installing but no CD in the forums.
    Hi all,

    I bought a Mac Mini G4 on Trademe a while ago. Unfortunately, the seller didn't include a CD/DVD. Now I need to re-install Mac OS (the harddisc failed and has been replaced). The version that was installed on it is 10.5.6. The Apple store doesn't seem to sell old stuff anymore (I can imagine why). Is anyone here able to help me out? I'd like to continue to use that old machine but otherwise great machine.

    thanks,
    Jan

  • Myra created a new topic Sony e-book reader PRS-505 in the forums.
    Hi,

    I've got a macbook pro (which I love) and a sony ebook reader (PRS-505) (which I also love). Only problem is that I can't get them to work together.

    I've downloaded the latest edition of Adobe Digital Editions but when I plug in my reader it does not show in the left hand pane of the display. Has anybody experienced this or does anybody know what I should do?

    Bear in mind that I'm not an IT expert so advice will have to be simple - but will be much appreciated!

    Thanks in advance,

    Myra

  • Philip Roy, turakina replied to the topic Excel workbook in the forums.
    The technique I describe works on a PC too, so it's nothing new. Just realised I should have been more specific...it's not the file you click on, it's the text wording of the file. Hope that helps.

  • turakina created a new topic Excel workbook in the forums.
    How do I RENAME a workbook in excel (not the spreadsheets within the workbook) ? On my old PC it was a simple right click, select rename but I just cannot figure out what to do on my new Mac (sure to be a simple obvious solution so apologies for being so thick but an a new user of Apple products)
