Hello all and thanks for having me! I’ve been lurking for a few weeks while I’ve been working on an iMac g4 M1 conversion mod. Big thanks to everyone who has contributed to this pool of knowledge - it is extraordinary! I hope this has not been asked before, I gave a good look but could not find...

Just wanted to post this in the unlikely event someone else was trying to replace the panel in their 17'' iMac G4. I have the 1.25 GHz model, and the display had dimmed due to the backlight aging. The stock panel in my iMac was a LM171W02-A4M1. I found a seller that had new in box panels for...

Hi, I have been trying to replace the speaker’s jack connector for my venerable iMac G4, but I can’t find a replacement. Does someone knows the pinout of the pcm connector (female) Or where to get it?

Occasionally I look at local listings of the iMac G4, I had a 17" one in my house when I was much younger and would like to get another one someday. While doing that, I feel like I almost never see the 20". (I may have never actually seen one anywhere but eBay, honestly...) Is this just due to...

After participating on a few threads about these modifications, I finally decided to post my own... As a big fan of the iMac G4, I’ve always wanted to have my own modified one… I bought my first iMac G4 in 2011, a 15", still in use to display photographs in my living room. I begun my first mod...

Hi everyone, I have a iMac G4 that I change the HD, so now has a clean HD new. I changed the battery I switch on and does nothing, sometimes appears the logo and gets kernel panic, sometimes I enter to Open Firmware with "Invalid access memory" message. But the most cases is black screen. I...

Hi everyone! I'm from Switzerland and I'm 27 years old. My main workstation is a good working MacBook Pro late 2013 with 2 30'' Cinema Displays. Back in the days I used to collect old iPods so now my collection is over 30 iPods from several generations (iPod classic, mini, nano, shuffle). My...

Look how cute this MagSafe dock I got for Christmas is! It looks like my iMac G4 and I just think it's adorable!! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!

I just bought a vintage Mac, an iMac G4. It won’t turn on. The led blinks in a repeated pattern of “long-short”. The fan seems to turn on. Any ideas on how to resolve it? I opened the base cover, it doesn't have RAM there. But there is a RAM stick inside the logic board. I cleaned it and put...

Hi everyone! Not sure if anyone will care but this is one of the only places I can think to post about it besides twitter! I've been on a passion project these last few weeks and I finished it the other night and wanted to share (because I'm absolutely geeking about it!) I decided to make my...

So I recently acquired a sunflower iMac G4 1Ghz model. I noticed that I wasn’t getting any audio out from the internal speaker. I looked at the back of the Mac and saw that the 2.5mm jack for the powered speakers was severely damaged. When I got this iMac it didn’t come with the powered...

Hi chaps, I'm looking to replace a iMac G4 video connector. Any one knows where I can find this odd 21 pin connector?

Hello dear community, I registered myself in the forum today and hope for concentrated "expertise"! ;-) and maybe your help with a little problem. A work colleague gave me a beautiful 20 "iMac PowerPC G4 / 1.25GHz / 80GB hard drive (Hitachi) / 1GB RAM (2x512GB DDR SDRAM) / 2004 / Mac OS 10.5.8...

I was trying to set up a secondary PPC-only e-mail address for Mail (to not give away my main one and to not flood the old Mac with reams of mail), but I can't seem to get the servers to work because I don't understand the settings; I've tried to follow some instructions I found but when they...

Hello, I just got an old iMac G4 1GHz 15" model from a neighbor. The iMac ran Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and I wanted to upgrade it to 10.5 Leopard. However, since the optical drive was dead, and the iMac would not accept a newer Apple external super drive, I tried something else. Using a MacBook...

I have a new installation of MacOS X 10.5 on my iMac G4. I've since applied all of the several updates. I use a USB Bluetooth dongle. And I have a wireless mouse connected to it. I was able to use this mouse with no problems before the new installation. After a new installation, I had a...

I've never had the battery run out of any computer so I don't exactly know how to diagnose it; I just know that the computer might not remember its time/date while starting up offline, but I haven't noticed any clock weirdness so far. The iMac has been starting up without the startup chime for...

I'd like to occasionally use my G4 for musical drafting. I put an SSD into the iMac recently, but haven't updated the RAM from the 1GB it has now. I probably will eventually, but somehow it feels like it's not the culprit, or that it's not the only culprit to the issue. The issue is that even...
