On your iMac, you can remove a software by doing the following steps:
Clicking on the Finder icon in the Dock or entering "Finder" into the search bar will both launch Finder.
Click on the "Applications" folder in the left sidebar of the Finder window.
Locate and click once to select the software you wish to delete.
To the Trash icon on the Dock, drag the program's icon.
As an alternative, you can use the drop-down menu that appears when you right-click on the program's icon and choose "Move to Trash".
Enter your administrator password if requested to confirm that you wish to delete the software.
By performing a right-click on the trash icon in the Dock and choosing "Empty Trash" from the drop-down menu, you can empty the trash.
Note: It's possible for some programs to have extra files that are not eliminated when you move the program to the Trash.
You can manually look for and delete the files in the Library directories or use a third-party uninstaller application to get rid of these files.
You can't use an iMac as a 'monitor'. But you could use Apple's screen sharing.
On the MBP, go to System Preferences -> Sharing, and check the box for Screen Sharing. Now, on the iMac, in Finder select the MBP and then click the Screen Sharing button. You can now work with your MBP on the iMac. I do this a lot, you can even run the MBP in a 'Space' at full screen.
Check your Finder Preferences (under the Finder menu).Make sure you hav the 'General' tab selected.make sure you have a tick in theCD, DVD box as below
flash drive or external usb hdd would be the easiest. You could also set up a share on the old computer tower and connect to it from the imac. Burning files to DVD can also work well.
It may be stuck so what you can try are one of these options:
Option# 1 * Shutdown your iMac G4 * Before you turn on your iMac, hold down your mouse button(s). * Turn your iMac on still holding the mouse button(s) down. * You will need to keep holding, until your disc ejects as your iMac starts up. That should do it.
Option# 2 If it does not, try using the Terminal utility to attempt to eject the disc.
* Click anywhere on the blank space of your desktop and then you should see Finder appear near the Apple menu icon located in the upper left corner of your screen.
* Now from the Finder menu, select Go > Utilities. * Within the Utilities folder. locate the Terminal application and launch it. * When the screen prompt appears, type: drutil tray eject
Option# 3 If that does not work, you can also try ejecting the cd using Open Firmware:
* Restart your Mac and hold these keys: * Hold Command, Option, O and F keys while booting up.
* Now type: eject cd
To exit the open firmware screen type: mac-boot
One of these 3 methods should eject your disc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ If not, you may have a genuinely stuck CD in your drive and may need to take your iMac in to your local Apple retail store Genius bar or local Apple-authorized service center to have it safely and correctly removed.
Honestly, however, I have this same type of iMacG4- you will probably have the cd out by Option # 2 :)
I have OS X on my Mac.
Quit all applications except Finder.
Open Finder and choose Go...Go To Folder
Type /Users/Shared/SC Info and click Go
(View as columns)
Select the SC Info folder and move it to Trash
Restart the computer and open Itunes
Everything worked fine after for me
To send a file using Bluetooth to a computer running Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, you must enable Bluetooth Sharing in Sharing preferences. By default, Bluetooth Sharing is turned off in Leopard.
On each Mac OS X 10.5-based Mac, from the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Sharing.
Check (click) the "On" box next to Bluetooth Sharing.
Close the Sharing preferences window.`Works perfect
