Hi List,
I posted a couple weeks ago about a problem booting out iMac G4.
Well,first we took it to the warranty place. Lousy service. It came
back the same way as we took it in, and he wanted to charge us over
$100 for reformating. I was not happy as the machine is still under
warranty. So, we took it to the Apple store here in town. After 3
hours of struggling, they decided to keep it over night to have more
time.
The problem was that the User folder somehow hijacked itself to the
wrong location.
I just wanted to let you know that it is fixed now.
Thanks,
Danielle

I did try the option key on boot, but that is when i got the screen
with the two arrows. When I clicked the arrows, nothing happened. The
little wheel just kept spinning and spinning. Now it is at the
dealer, who will fix it a no cost since it is under the extended
warranty. usually I am skeptical of extended warranties, as they
seem to be a waste of $ in the long run. But my husband, thankfully,
ignored that feeling and bought the extended warranty on this machine
(mine too for that matter). The computer is supposed to be ready in a
week. Exactly on the day we leave for vacation. So hope it is all
better when we get back.
Thanks for sharing your experience Peter.

Let us know if it's fixed.
