    iMac Late 2006

    Hi, I am thinking about getting a 24 inch model for collecting, but I was wondering, since both the CPU and GPU are upgradeable, would I be able to hack mavericks or even yosemite to run smoothly (ie: a supported graphics card and drivers)? I know the OEM card is not supported but surely another...

    Moving photo albums from Mac to iCloud

    Does anyone know how to move photo albums that have been created on a Mac into icloud? I know how to move the pictures themselves, however, I can’t figure out how to move the album and keep the album intact.

    2014 iMac Retina and Video Editing

    Okay, so I'm investing in a 2014 5k iMac with a Core i7-4790k, however, I'm having some issues... I'd like to edit 1080p, perhaps 1440p video with this iMac, however, I've heard that the R9 M290X with 2GB of VRAM just doesn't cut it for video editing. The M295X with 4GB of VRAM is apparently...

    Ordering online from the Apple Store - a bit of a gong show

    I just wanted to share my story of attempting to order a refurbished iMac from Apple. It has been a bit of a gong show to say the least and is apparently still not over. My mother was in need of a new iMac as her (2009 iMac) was giving her issues. There isn't an Apple Store anywhere near her...

    2GB VRAM and 5k Retina Display

    Hi all, I'm currently in the market for a new iMac, and I've settled in that I want a late 2014 or mid 2015 iMac. I've been looking around, and I was wondering if the 2GB of VRAM on the R9 M290X would have issues pushing a 27" display. I know that 4GB of VRAM would be good to have, however...

    Hello! I just received my new 2020 27" iMac customized with a 1TB SSD. When I unboxed it, I noticed below the screen bezel where the display meets the aluminum housing that there's this rough area that sticks out and is reflecting the light. It's really noticeable, but so far seems to be...

    AppleCare for iMac Worth It?

    I passed on AppleCare when buying my 2020 iMac. I can understand getting AppleCare for a MacBook as it gets bumped around a lot and prone to damage, but my iMac will, more or less, sit untouched. I got AppleCare for my last iMac (15,1) and I never had a reason to use it, so it turned out to be...
