Hey, I am running a 1TB iMac Retina 5K 27" 2017, with MacOS Ventura 13.0.1... I have ran into a problem after a failed bootcamp windows instalation. After it failed, I wanted to revert all of the disk partitioning, but after BootCamp Asistant tried to revert everything it just said something...

Here's my thoughts: 1) Manufacturing: it's hard enough producing accessories in 7 colors. By retaining the exact same coloured chassis, power brick and accessories, only swapping out the M1 board for the M3, Apple was able to keep their iMac production lines virtually untouched. 2) "It just...

Hello are Intel iMac's PCIe lanes bifurcated? Or each SSD slot can only support one SSD or can it support a SATA splitter and support two SATA SSD with no problems? How about for the NVME slots for Macs (not just iMacs) that support NVME SSDs (using an adapter to make it work with PC NVME M.2...

Hi guys, I own a 2015 27" iMac, and I'm using an external SSD drive through usb 3. It's got thunderbolt 2, which is supposed to be 4x faster than usb3. Can I use an external thunderbolt ssd with the system and boot it from there? Ideally I want a 2TB SSD. I don't seem to find such devices for...

I apologize if this has been posted for the umpteenth time. I'm very confused on how to approach this, even after reading previous topics on here and the apple forums. Running Sonoma 14.0 on a 2020 iMac (3.8 GHz 8-Core intel i7) Disk utility fails in recovery mode and on desktop. I have two...

Will we ever get another iMac Pro?

I couldn't believe this when I saw it. It's deplorable. Why, Apple, why? https://www.apple.com/imac/specs/

Hello I have a mid-2011 iMac 27'', and my graphics card (an AMD Radeon Hd6970M) is damaged. I don't have any system on my disk, but when I had High Sierra, I turned on my iMac and while it was booting, it suddenly turned on a white screen, and nothing happened. Do you know how I can turn off...

Hi all, My iMac… It’s a 2014 model. I have an iPhone 15PM arriving in the next few days, and I’ve just had the realisation that the included cable won’t connect to my iMac as it’s not USB-C. I still backup my phones and photos to my Mac, so I need to be able to connect it. Belkin do a USB to...

I'm looking to buy a MacStudio soon but in the meantime I've already purchased a WD Black SN850X NVME Gen 4 SSD with a Thunderbolt external enclosure (Acasis TBU405PROM1) for video editing. For now I have an iMac 27" Retina 5K 2017 3.4 GHz with a 2TB fusion drive. I did a BlackMagic test on...

A few days ago my iMac internal speakers stopped playing any sound. I have updated to iOS Sonoma but that was a few weeks ago so don't think I can blame that. I haven't changed any settings or plugged in any other external devices to my Mac. Obviously, I have checked the mute button and it is...

The Question: There seems to be lots topics concerning Fusion Drive problems in older iMac. In general was the Fusion Drive a good idea? Was it a reasonable compromise while SSD were initially becoming available? Or was it a faulty compromise from the start? My Opinion: 👎🏼 I was always thought...

I tried installing opencore legacy patcher on my imac 18,3. When I get to the step to install opencore, it is greyed out. I am assuming this is because my iMac is not supported by opencore 0.6.8...Can anyone tell me if that could be the issue? Thanks!

Hi, could you plug en electric guitar in an Intel iMac (Late 2015) then record the sounds in there listening to it through a headphones or earphone without burning anything on the electric guitar or the iMac taking in mind the amperage and wattage? What would it need to get the sound of the...

First and foremost, I'm an independent service technician, a customer came to me with an imac. This machine is one of a handful of company devices that the customer owns. He is upgrading his fleet of computers, and on this one, he used his iphone to remotely ask the computer to erase itself so...
