Why are cheap Lightning cables for Apple so BAD?

I'm really sorry, it appears PrimeCables are only available in Canada. If you are buying cables outside of Canada, just watch for reputable brands. The $5 per cable mark is about the lowest you will ever find a truly certified cable, since this is largely Apple's portion for certification.

Didn't age well we are still waiting for a 27in iMac in 2024. The Mac Studio is a great machine though.
@@techtipsuk lol, very true. Quite surprised Apple hasn’t released a 27 inch model yet. Although for pro work, the Studio paired with a good monitor is surely a better option IMO. Always feels like a waste when you have a massive 27 inch paperweight because Apple dropped support.
i have a 2006 model, am i cooked?
@@partial7707 You might be able to use Sunshine/Moonlight or Parsec. The trouble is with 2006 hardware, it may not be fast enough for smooth video. I think you have a good chance it will run though. I think it’s worth trying and testing.
Love how you hide the serial like anyone is gonna do anything with that
@@techtipsuk They do actually, because real serial numbers can be used on Hacintoshes to fix iMessage. So rather than put in effort to generate their own, some people glean real numbers off the internet. On much newer systems and iDevices someone can even activation lock your device by cloning your real serial, activating it, and turning on iCloud lock. Then if you ever factory reset your device, it’s bricked. On older systems like this 2009 though, the worst is getting iMessage disabled. Hugh Jeffries has an excellent video that explains how serial cloning works.
Okay I have a 2017 IMac 21.5 inch. It doesn’t have a display port, so I bought a usb to hdmi adapter. Do you think I will be able to connect my gaming console (ps5) and use my iMac as a display or should I just send the iMac back and get a Mack mini and a monitor?
The USB to HDMI is for display output from the iMac, not an input from a video source like a game console. The only option from a game console would be a USB capture card - it would need to be a Mac compatible one, and would add some latency to your gaming. A Mac Mini would with a monitor would be a much better option. If you get a monitor with 2 HDMI inputs, you will be able to switch between Mac and console without unplugging and plugging cables each time. If you don't have a separate sound system, then make sure to get a monitor with speakers.
Is this a joke? Sunlight yellowed my Amiga 1000! and I also yellowed a PC diskdrive front in sunlight... so this sounds like bullshit to me.
It's not a joke. My Mac Plus was dark brown/orange. Sat out in the sun for a week. Now it's beige. No chemicals whatsoever. A year later and it's still beige. Why did the sun turn it yellow at first, and why does the sun take the yellow out 30 years later? I won't even pretend to understand the science behind it or why it does that. But even to my own amazement, it worked.
@@rebootretro Does it make a difference if it's behind a window?
@@Smartzenegger It’s funny you ask that, because I was wondering the exact same thing. I was curious if behind glass is why it yellowed, and if the direct sunlight reverses it… your guess is as good as mine. I very honestly am curious about all this, but there’s so little data on even just sunlight bleaching.
@@rebootretro Meanwhile I found a video on the RetroRecepies channel from 5 years ago or something... he already knew this and explains it very well. And sorry, I can't post you a link... as you'll understand in 2024.
I'm looking for a working adapter for a Digital HiNote Ultra CT475. Who's got one for sale
I learned how to type on one of these things in elementary school using type to learn. Though i find as I got older i started to not like apple products, I like the POSIX / UNIX under pinnings of the OS but I hate the proprietary walled garden that Apple puts its users in but I do quite enjoy linux because it gives a UNIX like experience without feeling as locked down.
Yes, I had a very similar experience. I found doing "power user" stuff very difficult on Mac, and very cumbersome. As I need to do less of that sort of stuff on my daily driver in modern days, I find Mac is ok now because I generally only need functionality "permitted" within the walled garden. Although I always have other systems hanging around for times when I need to do "heavy lifting" and testing type tasks. But these days, for web browsing, graphic work, writing, taking notes, Mac works just fine. I've always thought Apple should put an "easy mode" switch inside their operating systems - that you could go from "locked down" easy mode to fully unlocked advanced mode with every option available.
i have a question i got a m1 macbook pro and a 2013 21.5 inch imac. Can i use a usba to usbc cable to connect them to eachotherthen use airplay or could i just connect it wirelessly if so how? or both of these ways cant work???
No, you can't connect USB A to C. You can use AirPlay over WiFi, but on a 2013 model AirPlay Receiver is disabled by default. On a 2013 you must enable AirPlay Receiver, which should be possible by installing OpenCore and upgrading to Mac OS Monterey or newer. If you want to use the iMac as your main display and do not need secondary display, you can use Sunshine/Moonlight method or Parsec (Parsec works like Sunshine/Moonlight in the video, but is easier to set up especially on Mac).
I also have a 2006 MPC 1,1 that I upgraded the firmware to 2,1 and a Radeon HD 5770. I maxed out the memory at 32 gb., and added a 1 tb. Crucial SATA SSD, and with a little massaging with rEFIT, I was able to install Windows 10 Enterprise. It's actually pretty fast once it boots and everything settles down. The only thing that doesn't work so far is the sound chip, but that's easily remedied with a USB sound card that Windows recognizes automatically. I had to install Windows-based fan controls mainly to keep the memory at acceptable temp levels, since those 667 mhz. DIMMS seem to always run hot. Overall it's very stable now for everyday use, and has 3D graphics support with the Windows drivers for the Radeon HD 5770. Pretty impressive for an 18 year old machine!😉
Its the opposite of what you think would happen.
Sorry if this is already answered by you -- My situation is a 2015 iMac 27" to be paired with my M1 Macbook Pro. Which do you believe would be the best route?
I think out of the ones shown, only Sunshine/Moonlight method would work for a 2015 iMac (possibly AirPlay method would work too, but only if the iMac was running OpenCore and modded). You might also consider trying Parsec. Parsec works like Sunshine/Moonlight, but is easier to set up with Mac to Mac. It is important to know that Parsec requires an internet connection to work (even if using LAN, it requires internet for sign-in), while Sunshine/Moonlight can work entirely local. Hope this helps!
Just try Fedora!
It also worked with the TRS-80 Model I (16K).
@@toddmcgowan9449 Haha, amazing!! No subscription, no cloud -> the way to go!
can't seem to get this to work on my 2015 iMac to m3 MacBook. is there a solution that im missing?
It depends which method you are using. Target Display does not work on 2015 and newer iMacs, and the AirPlay method doesn't work on stock 2015 Macs without OpenCore mods (Apple blocks the feature, but most hardware support it if unlocked with the mod). If you are using Sunshine/Moonlight (or alternatively Parsec which is easier to set up on Mac), that should work fine with a 2015 iMac and M3 MacBook.
Can I upgrade anything with the Apple iMac "Core 2 Duo" 2.0 20" ?
Yes, you can (and should) upgrade to an SSD which will give you substantial performance improvements. If possible, you should try upgrading to 8GB RAM (this will depend on your specific model). And you can do the OpenCore patch to install a newer version of Mac OS. I made a video here where I upgraded a 2008 Core 2 Duo iMac to Mac OS Monterey: ruclips.net/video/_a2utQaO_Gs/видео.html
Wait question did you went to a e-waste disposal and ask for parts? or what did you do? I’m building a pc from trash pleases to but this time on America lasts time I did it was on Europe and manage to build a nice pc slowly evolving from component ether from trash or giving free to me
You really need to either work for, or have a relationship with a company that processes ewaste. Some places will sell you parts if you ask, but most will not. Most of the time you need to build a relationship with a place that does. And almost always you still need to pay for it, but generally it's extremely cheap in relation to buying online. They paid either nothing, or almost nothing for ewaste (and some places even got PAID to take it!) - so if they make a few bucks off you its an easy profit for them, and great value for you. But I say you need a relationship, because most places don't want random people off the street in their facility, so they need to know and trust you beforehand.
is it possible to install a windows gpu and cpu on it when it has windows bootcamped on it
Any Intel CPU will work if it is supported by motherboard, even if it was originally from a Windows PC. The same Intel CPUs are used in Mac and PC computers, the Mac cannot tell if the CPU was originally in a Windows PC. It will work in Mac or in Boot Camp fine. On a Mac Pro you can install any GPU from a Windows PC and it should work in Boot Camp (but you will loose the startup Apple boot screen). On an iMac, it depends - because of how the internal screen is wired to the GPU. Some might work, others might need a custom vBIOS (like in the video). Although if you're running Boot Camp only, I'm not sure if you can skip the custom vBIOS... That is a good question!
@@rebootretro i have like a 2014 or smth imac and it is fucking terrifying seeing videos of ppl opening im scared i would break it lol
@@Sigmaskibid The 2012 and newer have soldered GPUs which can't be upgraded. Some also have soldered CPUs, which can't be upgraded. But on a 2014 CPU/GPU isn't your biggest issue. Your biggest issue will be the very slow mechanical hard drive. Upgrading to an SSD will make it way faster than any CPU/GPU/RAM upgrade will. If you don't want to open it up, you can have the hard drive hooked up to external USB. External is not ideal and you loose some performance, but should still be much faster than the built-in mechanical drive.
@@rebootretro i think ill just.... wait to get older till i can get a job and get a windows pc
Its unique form factor alone makes it interesting enough to keep and restore.
It is somewhat of a bizarre design/engineering choice (the way the motherboard is configured), but it does look pretty cool!
Glad to see my high end 2014 dell server will still run for quite a while
Your Dell server will also run circles around this Mac Pro, lol. Yup, most x86/64 stuff you can squeeze quite a bit of useful life out of! And even if ARM takes over the market, I don't see Linux support dropping any time soon.
I owned a late 2009 21.5-inch iMac, which I upgraded in 2019 with a new CPU, SSD, and RAM. Last month, the iMac failed, so I decided to retire it and recycle it through Apple's program. For now, I haven't purchased a new Mac, as my late 2019 16-inch MacBook Pro continues to perform exceptionally well. However, I am considering the Mac mini M2 as a future purchase.
The Mac Minis are a pretty good value - the cheapest way to get a current model Mac. I've thought about it too, but I'm waiting until a day when I can't upgrade what I have any longer :)
@@rebootretro Yes, exactly! I’ve already got the Apple Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad, and a 27-inch Apple Thunderbolt Display from late 2011 hooked up to my 16-inch MacBook Pro from late 2019. But I totally agree, it would be even better with a Mac mini! The Mac mini is perfect for a home server, and I can use my MacBook Pro to access it for Time Machine backups and other server needs. I really wish I could get my hands on a 2020 or earlier iMac because I’m just not a fan of the new design!

Hi, nice video do you think this card will work on 2009 27 inch with macOS sonoma?
@@unknownblueblue I’m pretty sure it works with Sonoma, other people claim it does. I eventually plan to upgrade this Mac to Sonoma and will make a video when I do.
@@rebootretro thank you very much, do you think this card is better than a k1000m?
@@unknownblueblue Bechmarks show the M5100 to be faster. But I didn't care about speed, I wanted native Metal support. The M5100 has official Apple drivers (at least on Monterey). I believe all Nvidia cards require modified drivers. I'm not sure if Nvidia cards work at all anymore on Sonoma, you should double check before using Nvidia. Good luck with your upgrade project! :)
@@rebootretro thank you again, I bought the card today in 10 days probabily i'll receive it and if everything works i'll come here to tell :)
i'm here again to say it worked very well on mac os sonoma, did the open core patch, i downloaded opencore to my system and just did the patch at first it showed only 14mb but after the patch worked it recognize the 2gb from the gpu thanks for the video again
I have a 5.1 and it is still running well. I occasionally do stop motion animation. 2X 5690, 128GB RAM and an RX580 8GB video card. I have 3x 1TB storage (one of them is an nVME. It is connected to my 30" Cinema Display. My system is in mint condition, looks brand new. Not too many left in this condition. I can still play with it as it has Intel CPU, still can do everything I need to do. The current M series computers are expensive (the base line is not enough) and it would cost me around $2K to get the Mac that I want to. So at the moment I am very happy with my old, 14 yo setup.
I have an earlier ultra 433, try FN+F3 and press X and then press enter twice. if it beeps once during post, press f1, it is most likely complaining that it hasn't been able to seek the floppy drive. after that try FN+f4 again to switch to external display. If that doesn't work, parts for these are hard to find, ebay it, but I paid around 43£ for mine at the time of writing, and I got the PSU, it was tested to post, and works quite well, though the FDD needs a new belt and the battery is dead.
That's a very good point about parts being hard to find. The LCD is destroyed on so many levels, but the other components potentially could be salvageable. Maybe the lack of POST had something to do with the keyboard being disconnected; maybe that's why it only POSTed the first time and then never again.
the instalation works but my wifi dosent work i did post instal with cabel wifi but that dosent work either
Are you 100% sure the post-install patches were successful? Do you have graphics acceleration working (graphics smooth, not laggy and choppy)? Which iMac model exactly do you have? Can you check the System Profiler to find the WiFi card model? I will try to help as much as I can.
@@rebootretro Thank you for your response. I own an Imac 8,1, which is a 20-inch model from 2008. The graphics card is an ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro MB. Memory: 4 GB of 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM The processor name is Intel Core 2 Duo. I could not find the wifi card model, and I also looked it up, but you might think that the RAM is 4 GB instead of 2? Idk, because I bought it from Marktplaats, so I dont know if the owner before me upgraded it or not. I also forgot to subscribe, so I just did it now.

that dell xps is so similar to my Alienware pc with my dual gpus with an 11th gen i7
Interesting. So as I understand you are now sending the display signal through the RJ45 port? To be fair, I have actually seen something similar done in a manufacturing facility, where the machine had no dedicated display ports, but the signal was sent out via RJ45 instead. So the displays were actually having custom cables. I still wish there was a homebrew solution to decrypt the original target display signal and send it out via the same port (thunderbolt) but as a display signal. Should work fine.

AirPlay/AirDrop is still available, but some newer versions (particularly if you're installing unsupported via OpenCore) of Mac OS require newer wireless cards in order for it to work. I'll be doing a future video about the AirDrop/AirPlay upgrade on a 2009.
@@rebootretro so hard ware is require 🤔 My iMac is 2011 mid,running macOS High Sierra now. I saw that AirPlay and AirDrop needs iMac 2014 or later. So if we want to use these function, no matter which macOS is, hardware is still require, too right?
@@hey_siri._. Sorry, it looks like I was wrong - According to Apple you need at least a 2012 model for AirDrop officially (without upgrades/patches). It is possible on a 2011, but you need either a WiFi/Bluetooth upgrade, Mac OS upgrade/ patch, or both.
Hey guys... I have a iMac 2017 which the display fell off (long story) and now, the technician says that the display can't work in its internal display port due to the fact that it's connector is broken or with an electrical damage. So I want to use my old late 2012 iMac as a Display for that 2017 one. Is there a way to achieve that with a cable (I did't using native remote access but is very slow and bad graphic quality) or there is a piece of hardware that allow me to convert my 2017 display to an external one and plug it to the external usb-c display ports? Or even more crazy, can I connect my fully functional 2017 retina display screen to my late 2012 iMac? Thanks for your help.
You can use official Target Display over Thunderbolt cable, according to Apple's docs: support.apple.com/en-us/105126 It looks like your 2012 iMac must be running High Sierra or older, and your 2017 must be running Catalina or older. Although Apple says such things for the 2009 model, which absolutely works with new versions, so it might be worth testing regardless. Alternatively, you can use the Sunshine/Moonlight method in the video (also works with Parsec - which is easier to set up on Mac). There is also a product called Luna Display which is a little dongle you use on one Mac, then run an app on the other Mac to use as an external display. I've not used this product personally, but it looks to be reputable IMO. It costs money, but seems a little more polished that some other methods. The easiest free option though is probably setting up Parsec on both computers.
@@rebootretro Thanks... I will give it a try and come back with the results. You are most kind.
is there any way to get a 2017 imac to be either a second display for another 2017 imac OR for a second display for a pc?
Yes, for a 2017 iMac as a screen for PC, you would use Sunshine/Moonlight method. If you are using 2017 iMac as a screen for another Mac, you can use AirPlay (less smooth video, but easy setup) or you can use Sunshine/Moonlight, or Parsec. Parsec works like Sunshine/Moonlight, but is easier to set up on Mac.
Hi, is there any way to connect my late 2013 27-inch iMac as a monitor for a Mac mini M2 Pro? Thanks
That combo doesn't support direct connection. But you can do it by using Sunshine/Moonlight. Parsec would also work, and is easier to set up when connecting Mac to Mac. Basically you run Sunshine/Parsec server on the Mac Mini, and then you use the iMac with Moonlight/Parsec client as the viewer.
I had so many of them because they were always offering huge discounts for packages! And remember those pop-up ads?!
lol, yes! You'd have to buy a bunch of stuff you didn't want in order to get a deal on the stuff you did want! I definitely ended up with some random extras that way.
I want to get my 2011 imac as a display
For a 2011, it depends on what you're connecting it to. If you connect it to a Windows PC, then Sunshine/Moonlight would probably be ideal. If you're connecting it to an older Mac, you might be able to use Target Display. Connecting it to a newer Mac, you'll likely need Sunshine/Moonlight or Parsec (Parsec can be easier for Mac to Mac connection).

Did you do the Monterey upgrade already and it became slow AFTER the upgrade? Or is it too slow and you want to upgrade it? If you have not done any upgrades yet, it would be best to do: 1. Upgrade original hard drive to an SSD (makes HUGE speed improvement!) 2. Have at least (or upgrade) to 8GB RAM 3. Use OpenCore to update to a modern Mac OS version The SSD upgrade will make it insanely faster even without upgrading anything else.

I know, the hardware is very capable of running it. Apple software is the limitation. The problem is Apple sells more computers when they stop updating old ones. Unfortunately, its always about money $$$. At least there is OpenCore :)
@@rebootretro If OpenCore would be runned by Apple it would be more efficient and better. Also if Apple would support older hardware it would give better reputation to Apple!
Big deal. Heaps of us are doing this, and doesn't give a shit. But it won't be too much longer until drops support for intel macs entirely. What then?
