Imac keeps freezing when asleep3/21/2023 ![]() So, I performed a clean install and restored all of the files and apps from my Time Machine backup, and will wait to see if I experience again the freezing issues, but it seems I am getting the same high temps like before. I heard the 2011 iMacs had batteries for date and time and replacing this DID fix a booting problem. Do the iMacs come with a battery for the Date and Time (like the old PPC Macs did?) That stopped my 1997 rig from booting. There was one thing that came up that people don't mention. In the iMac I change the configurarion to doesn't put hard drives in sleep mode in the screen is off, and solve the problem, but this raises my porwer consumption and shrink the lifetime of the computer. I did manage to get the Apple Chime back with the SMC check.ĭo wonder after 7.3 years just how much dust is in there. During this freezing time, the spinning colored ball stay frozen in the screen, and is not possible to anything until it unfreeze. It's taught me a lesson in terms of having 'back up' machines if your main rig goes down. I can't take it to a UK Apple store in the current crisis. My original OS would have been Mountain Lion. Normal pc mode has green and pink flecks. I've tried booting my iMac 2012 (late) back. I am posting some screenshots of the temp readings and how many processes are running on the computer right now, maybe that way somebody can tell me if those high temps are normal? ![]() ![]() Sadly, I don't have AppleCare anymore and I'm not good in tinkering with the components of the machine or doing upgrades by myself. ![]() My first iMac experienced the dust spots on the screen and my current iMac had this issue but thankfully I replaced the screen under AppleCare some moths ago, so I'm sure they cleaned up everything when they took the computer apart. We already know that the iMacs have a horrible air ventilation and they accumulate a great amount of dust. The rooms and the stuff in the house can get dusty but it is the average thing that every house has. I'm using it in your typical house environment in NY, not anything extreme. ![]()
