    Do I have a repaired imac?

    Hi, I just bought a refurbished imac which is supposed to be a 27 inch late 2011 model with 3.4 GHz i7. But the GPU, a Radeon 4850, does not look like from 2011 imac. How do I find out if this is a repaired unit or not? Serial number lookup shows it as a 2011 model. Please help!

    Weird GPU temperature behaviour on iMac (late 2014) with macOS 10.15

    Lately (maybe over the last year or so) the machine has started spontaneously entering sleep mode now and then during use. This is during non-gaming use, even while just web surfing, but more easily reproduced when doing things like viewing Google Maps in 3D. (Plus whatever macOS might be doing...

    Monitor Choice to Complement a new 27" iMac

    I am considering a replacement for my Late 2012 27" iMac for no other reason than keeping current. It runs as fast as the day I bought it 7-years ago. I currently pair my iMac with a 27" Dell U2711 Monitor which I bought second-hand as it matches the resolution of my iMac. Windows do not change...

    Big Navi refresh in 2020 27" iMac?

    With NVIDIA releasing their 3000 line of cards just a few days ago and AMD supposedly releasing their Big Navi RDNA2 chips later this year, I was wondering if Apple will refresh the GPU option on the iMac 2020 one last time. Apple has done such a move before in the past with the iMac Pro. On...

I called apple support and I managed to get them to send me a new Magic Mouse but I've found the mouse functionality to be "wonky" on both the Magic Mouse and 3rd party mice. It's really odd. Has anyone...
