Should I buy an iMac 2009 second hand?

Care - IMac, 10.1 27 "A1312 (Core I7, 12 GB Ram, ATI radeon HD 4850) 4.1 tb Ssd Fusion -£650

I'm editing using Adobe first AND Final Cut Pro X - would this be enough? I fight with my MacBook Pro and want to get an iMac, but my budget is difficult - is this a good buy?

Appreciate your input!

Thank you very much

Amy

Personally, I wouldn't buy a computer that is 7 years old.

  • Should I buy a new iMac?

    I currently have an iMac that I bought in February ' 08. It has 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. I'm on OS 10.6.8.  I upgraded the memory a few years ago.  Things seem to become a little slow on this subject. We may need the latest version of numbers that supposedly requires OS X 10.10.4.  Should I buy a new iMac, or are there things I can do to improve and accelerate and hold remote buying a year or two?  If I buy an iMac, should I buy a new airport because my current one is almost as old as the Mac?

    Thank you

    The airport should be fine, unless you have the intention to improve your Internet connection at Gigabit speeds... WiFi has not changed that much.

    It's probably a good idea to consider a new Mac in the near future, however. This one is about the end of his life.

  • Hi all, I have an iMac (21.5 inch, mid 2011) with 4 memory slots, 2 has 2 GB each, is it OK to put a 4 GB in each of the empty slots or should I buy 4 new 4 GB and replace all, Sebastian Cheers

    You can put 2 x 4 GB DIMMS in the empty slots, this will give you a total of 12 GB. iMacs are very sensitive to the RAM, it is best to buy RAM from reliable sources like Crucial (direct purchase) or OWC OWC RAM

  • Bought a second hand iphone 5 and my seller did not remove device to find my iphone and im too poor to buy a fresh iphone and my country does not have a retail store, so how do I get it removed icloud? Its imei is *.

    Nobody here can help, and Apple will not help you to overcome the blocking of activation.  If the seller does not cooperate and remove the unit from their iCloud account, then you will never be able to use this device yourself.

  • Hello I buy an i phone 4 second hand and I do not have his id what to do

    I buy an iPhone 4 in second hand and I did not have his id to. It's an iPhone 4 and it's IMEI: *.
    and ICCID: 89230030614032442294

    Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do if you do not know the previous owners of Apple ID, because the phone is locked iCloud, you can't ignore. If you can not return the unit to the person/place you bought out of second hand you are out of luck, unfortunately. Hope that answers your question. I would recommend also to edit your post and remove your ICCID, IMEI/as it is unnecessary information and not a good idea to spread publicly online.

  • I got Photoshop CS6 second hand by someone (unopened) and its not activating. What should I do?

    I had Photoshop CS6 second hand from someone and it was closed, but when I go to enter the serial number it says that it is inactive. What should I do?

    The condition of the packaging is not serious as far as installation goes.  Files can be downloaded installed using a disc instead.  If the license has been used previously and has not been formally transferred to your property, then this should be done.  Transfer a license of Adobe product

    If the package is not open then you are probably not using the correct number for the serial number because the number will be not visible from the outside of the package.

    If you are using the correct serial number then you will probably need to contact Support Adobe directly for assistance with it.  They are not generally available on weekends.

  • I had to install Windows 7 on my computer so I lost all my programs.  Adobe ExportPDF was one of them.  Should I buy a second time to put it back on the computer?

    I had to install Windows 7 on my computer so I lost all my programs.  Adobe ExportPDF was one of them.  Should I buy a second time to put it back on the computer?

    ExportPDF is not "a program"; This is a subscription service that is used on Acrobat Reader.

    Download & install Acrobat Reader DC (older versions no longer work), and then sign in with your Adobe ID and ExportPDF will be once more at your disposal.

  • PC with Windows Vista Business OEMAct COA of second hand

    Hello

    I just bought a PC that has a Microsoft COA license sticker attached to it for "Windows Vista Business OEMAct" of second hand. It came without a HARD drive, so I installed my own and want to make sure that the key on the PC is still valid? If I can get my hands on a Vista disk, probably, I can install windows with this key and everything will be fine?
    The question I have, is that I can then upgrade to Windows 8 for the $39,99 deal? I don't see why not?

    Hello

    You must use the key to see if it is still valid. There is no public list kept.

    Hadou no reason why it would not be valid as long as you can not transfer OEM licenses which they were installed on the original machine.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

    "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

  • No product key for Windows 7 Ultimate on laptop second hand. Windows 8 not compatible. What are the options?

    A friend of mine bought a computer with Windows 7 Ultimate laptop second hand on it and it has not been activated, and it is not a product key (even the old one is worn and unreadable). It was originally a XP system and it cannot be upgraded to Windows 8 because it is not compatible. Is it possible that he could buy a product key so that it is activated and genuine? I don't want him to enter in some affliction, and I feel partly responsible because I was the one who told him to do and was not with him to look over the first! I feel really bad, because it doesn't have a lot of money and I should have been there when it was sold. I have a Windows 7 professional full version box, but I really need for my own system. Are there any alternatives? Please give me some GOOD news because I feel really rotten over this. ) :

    Thank you

    BAT

    The only alternative would be to buy a license Windows 7 Ultimate full version or a version complete edition cheaper such as Windows 7 Edition Home Premium and make a custom installation:

    Full version-

    Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium

    Full version-

    Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate

    Apart from that, the only other option would be to contact the computer manufacturer for a Windows XP Recovery disk. Which I doubt they still provide.
