No Jack, she said she has a G4 iMac; that's the one with the guts in a
hemisphere and the integral monitor on a stalk!  Also known as the flat
panel iMac (or the Anglepoise!)

I do have two of these, (which still work)  but unfortunately I do not know
why she has been unable to upgrade it to 10.4 11. Possibly a firmware
issue, although MacTracker does not list a firmware update.
Patricia do you have the original 10.4 install disc? Doing a clean install
from this disc may work? Possibly  a PRAM reset (using 4 fingers press down
alt, command, p and r keys together before the 'BONG" sound when booting
may help.
I'm sure someone on this list may have more knowledge of this machine's
foibles.

Dan, (sent from my MacPro 3.1!)

Try mAC3dec. I have used this on my PPC Macs with good results.

 Hi Bruce

 How are things in AZ?

 I just thought I should update my previous postings on my 2 iMac G3s - One
 Bondio and one FlowerPower - you will recall the Bondi doesn't want to do
 anything but show the switch light when on and turn off if held down etc.
 No sounds - no movement!

 The Flower power I bought in working but unudated mode and I set about
 correcting it with the intention of getting it to 10.4.11 and working as a
 juke box. It needed OS X updates and more memory. I bought 10.4 on Disk
 through Ebay and it is fine but I bought two DIMMS to Max out memory from
 Amazon but when I put them in, plugged in and switched on it chimed then
 stooped and despite removing the DIMMs and trying to reboot with the old
 DIMMs in again or none at all it wont boot. Its now in the same mode as
 Bondi! I never even got to upgrade to 10.4 (I have the combo upgrade from
 10.4 to 10.4.11 waiting! Sad!

 Meantime a friend has given me two MBPs both 2011 Unibodys one 15 one
 13.
 They were his two daughters and have not exactly been looked after - one
 has had tea with milk and sugar on the keyboard the bigger one has a
 cracked screen and a kink in the case where some mugger dropped it on
 board
 a boat in Africa where she was on a study tour and grabbed her bag which
 she grabbed back and he let go! I was looking at replacing the keyboard
 myself but decided to get it done - looked at IFixit and a local service
 in
 UK but once I had spoken to the Apple Store (23 miles away!) I realised
 that the costs would only be fractionally more but that they would do more
 than just replace the keyboard as part of the job, so its going in there
 today or tomorrow when I collect the 15 which had a swelling battery, a
 sticky out trackpad and a cracked screen. The plan is to try to get a 24
 Apple Display and use the bigger one in clamshell mode as a desktop
 possibly for music and photos depending on if the iMac Flower power gets
 fixed.

 If I get the two MBPs sorted and thats looking good at present then I
 might
 just open up the iMacs but I am very cautious about the CR Tube electrics
 as every one warns of the dangers!

 iFixit seem to have quite good take apart instructions for iMacs but Im
 not
 sure as we are what I am looking for!

 Any thoughts?

 Colin
