Apple iMac - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues

With internal/external hard drives being as low in price as they are, I'd recommend the easiest solution as follows: Buy the SSD you want and an external sled for mounting the drive. Clone your current HDD to the sledded SSD. This would allow you to navigate through to see if there are indeed two partitions on the device. While not having used it in a few years, there are two apps that I've had success with: Carbon Copy Cloner and Super Duper! The key in the instance of cloning would be to make sure that your clone is bootable... otherwise, it's a massive exercise in futility! Hope this info helps! SuperDuper Mac Backup Software

Install a new HDD. Press and hold Command, Option and R keys with a keyboard connected via USB. Power the mac on whilst holding down the keys. Release the keys when the globe shows and select your router code then download the OS for your mac. Install the OS. It takes some time to do this!

You probably don't have the right codec installed to play the videos you downloaded. Try installing Perian from http://www.perian.org/. This adds support for more types of videos.

If that doesn't work, try playing them with VLC: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
VLC is a media player that supports nearly every format out there.

You do not need to setup AirDrop as such. Just turn on the wifi and on the Finder sidebar go to AirDrop.

There are several causes for this:

• Dust buildup in the computer prevents proper cooling, so the fans have to work harder.
• Corrupted Power Manager chip settings. Go to the Apple support page and search for "Power Manager" "reset" and your specific model. You can get the model number from the System Profiler utility (Apple menu: About this Mac: More Info). If this is the problem, resetting the Power Manager should solve it. If it happens again after unplugging, you may need a new clock/PRAM battery;
• Bad temperature sensor (all fans run at high speed);
• Shorted fan driver transistor on the logic board or in power supply (one fan always runs at max speed).

First of all, you need to download MACTUBES, a program for Mac which allows you to copy videos from YouTube to your computer. Second, you need an external drive for Mac such as the USB SUPER DRIVE where you can insert dvds. From there, use any program you have to burn the video onto a dvd.
