I'm trying to get into my machine. The instructions I'm finding tell me about the screws and lifting off the back. My screws are closer together (3 removable, 2 fixed on the wire mesh) and the back does not just lift off. The whole inside starts to …

My problem is that the next Apple store is in Casablanca and I'm south in Agadir, over 500 km - if there is no road damage because of the recent rains.

The Mac ran for 24 hours with no problems. I woke it up from sleep this morning, checked my mail/News with no problem. Then it went to sleep while I had breakfast and would no longer wake up. I closed down, used the Apple/Alt/P/R and it loaded to th…

Hi Luindy, It's a G5. I went to: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/resetpmchip.html I pressed the Apple/alt/p/r (as I had done before with no response) and it restarted. Fingers crossed... Still, there must be a long-term solution for thi…

Thanks for all the help, have to give up for now, got to pack. I'll just pick up a new keyboard* then try again in a week. *Maybe the kitten peed on it while I was out :-)

1) I tested the keyboard on a laptop and it functions, so the keyboard is not the problem, 2) Holding down thw Eject key. Nothing new happens. There is the 'Dooiiiinnngggg', I hear the CD-drive working, the after about 2 minutes I have the hyperfan…

The keyboard seems as Dead as a Doornail. I'll try anotherone this afternoon. Now I have something else to add to my shopping list in Dubai :-)

Just tested the kayboard by attaching a USB hub to it. No power. The USB hub IS powered if I attach it to the Mac USB port. So the keyboard is not working. That shouldn't stop the Mac booting though?

Hi, don't have a left mouse button, just the Mighty Mouse. I noticed that there was no power to the mouse (I had it connected through the keyboard). I've changed it to another USB port and it is now powered. The disk I have in is Disk 1. Holding …

I've run it for 15 minutes from restart. Just the power-on lamp and the hyper-fan.The same with On > Apple/alt/r/p - (ran for 10 minutes).

Hi Denver, I'll give it a go and get back to you in 20 minutes. This has never happened before though as this is my first freeze since I bought the mac (Oct 2005), and the fan I've never noticed before as it has been very silent running.

Hi, tried Apple/alt/p/r same as before. No boot, just the 'Boing' and a super-hyper fan after 2 minutes
