eMac Adventures! Part 1/2 - Fixing this weird Apple computer 

A great video, but I had to flip my screen over as everything had been filmed in Australia? 😜

Hey dude! Love this video. Also thank you for actually pointing out where the high voltage dangers are. Far too many creators open a CRT and declare its dangerous, then add they have no idea where the dangerous high voltage spots are. Kudos! Im subbing with all my accounts!

It's nice to see someone using an air compressor and water hose on the electronics, where appropriate. The phone call reenactment was fun and I'm glad the call hadn't come in while you were in the lavatory. 🤪

Thank you for your help to remove the harddisk ( hard driver) before throwing the old eMac away. From an 78 old women from Denmark 😀

I remember seeing these in Apple Stores. They'd usually be on display on a kid's table, for them to play on.

Thank you for this upload! You can very clearly see a lot of the computer in this video! The main reason i came here was to figure out if this thing had molex or not , stayed for the chill vibes!

Informative and entertaining - and a cliffhanger to boot. (No pun intended) Looking forward to Part 2!

One of the best machines I ever owned. Sony screen and stella sound.

I remember in 2005 when I was in the 4th grade. My classroom got a brand new one of these. 1.42 ghz running tiger. I thought it was the coolest thing ever at the time. It was so white and cool looking.

I definitely feel the older Apple products, had more class than their newer counterparts.

booted up an emac today after sitting for a few years, some 20 years old and still working like it did 10 years ago. Its great when 20 year old peices of equipment are still working -- especially when they have electrolytic capaciors.

Nice Apple collection

Only 227 subscribers? Your videos are very well made and I’m sure that number is going to blow up very soon. I’ve seen people repurposing old iMacs by emptying them and putting modern hardware inside while keeping the exterior intact. I’d love to see a new M1 Mac mini inside an iMac g4 body. Maybe you could try a project like that. I’m sure you’ll get a ton of views and I think it’s pretty awesome. Keep the awesome work!

Neat - what an unusual machine! This is exactly from the era that I worked in industry, between graduating from a university with tons of Macs and going to work later for a university with lots of other Macs; I've never seen the eMac before.

Came for the apple logo, stayed for the content ! Nice channel !

The power button.... it's an expensive repair if you mess it up. Even when they were new. Took 4 people to find the power button when we first installed them.

Thanks for this video. Very useful to me as I had to remove a HDD for secure destruction

Love the video, good job filming the teardown and cleaning. Love the editing and the flow too.

Great vid. I still have my eMac from 2004. Still boots up great and is super quick. I have latest iMac, but still like the old emac

Nothing like a cliff-hanger of a two-parter! Tune in next time. Same bat time. Same bat channel!

I’ve just got an eMac this is going to come in handy when I take it apart! Great video!!

Its not working cos there is not enough of that paste stuff, put the whole tube on!

Had one when they came out. I paid a lot for it. Had everything maxed out. Sure it was a 1.2 processor with 2 gigs of ram, 120 gb hard drive. I have heard of people removing the board, replacing it with a modern mac laptop board. The cry gives amazing frames 😁

My god. There's enough thermal compound on that processor now for it to last into the next millennium.

Thanks for the video, im selling an emac and i wanted to open it and clean it, im excited!

I've got one with 2G RAM and an AirPort card. I plan to upgrade the drive to an SSD, and I'll have the best OS9 computer ever.

I'm glad I've only ever been into windows / linux based PCs, When you pulled the case off it triggered some anxiety with that mess

I wonder why my middle school had all I macs.

Success! Thanks again for this awesome tutorial. Im passing on the thermal paste but it’s certainly dust and cat hair free lol. I really like your channel and filming style hope this channel grows take care. Hey also i was interested in how your blue power mac g3 power supply is rigged with that black battery box. I got a broken power supply on a quicksilver g3 that is my next project. 👍👍👍👍

I love that thumbnail, is that the rare 28" emac?? or are you a very small guy? :-)

Emac is the biggest pain to work on. Built like a tank

Maybe I'm being a bit ambitious, is it possible to use that CRT and connect a more recent mitro ITX motherboard or upgrade in anyway and use that CRT as a monitor for retro gaming?😊

Great video!

Entertaining!!

I once heard the eMac described as an iMac that had all the colour and life sucked out of it. A bit harsh? An enjoyable video as always.

The thing was heavy as hell. Was working at the time that iMac G3 and G4 at an Apple dealership the flat CRT from Sony made it heavy.

your doing a good job but might be smart to let the isopropyl evaporate before applying thermal compound to the dye

Great Video!! I subbed :)

This deservers a sub. Got one from a freind and needed to know how to take the HDD out! Do you know if theres any CRT adjustment knobs on the Flyback btw? Couldn't see any but then I only took about 5 seconds to look...

I wish they made one as big as the thumbnail. Like the size of a adult male 😆

Is there just one fan for the whole system with an opening in the back?

I intend to buy one from a guy who connected it to 200 volts and it clicked internally. Did the power supply burn out or was it just the protection fuse?

Hi Wonder if you could help I bought the very same emac from a charity shop today It boots up fine but it’s password protected.from the previous owner. Is there any way you know to bypass and reset this ? Thanks in anticipation

I have an emac and I can get it to turn on, fan is on, hard drive can be heard, but no video. any useful tips to help me fix it? please

neat video

Someone told me if you run your Emac with os 9.2.2 it still natively supports old 68k games is that true?

I have a 2002 emac and have forgotten my PW and username. Do you know how to reset the user name and password

does anyone know if the AirPort Extreme port is a certain standard or apple proprietary slot/port?

How do I reset it using keys?

i subbed nice video
