Problem, Meet Solution

Keeping Your Software Up to Date

When you’re connected to the Internet, Software Update checks periodically to see
if updates are available for your computer. You can download and install these free
software versions, drivers, and other enhancements from Apple.
You can set how frequently your iMac checks for updates in Software Update
preferences. To check manually, choose Apple () > Software Update. For more
information about Software Update, see Help Center (click Help in the menu bar and
search for “Software Update”).

You can find the latest information about Mac OS X at www.apple.com/macosx.
If you have a problem with software from a manufacturer other than Apple, contact the
manufacturer. Software manufacturers often provide software updates on their websites.

Learning More, Service, and Support

Your iMac does not have any user-serviceable parts, except the keyboard, mouse, and
memory. If you need service, contact Apple or take your iMac to an Apple Authorized
Service Provider. You can find more information about your iMac through online
resources, onscreen help, System Information, or Apple Hardware Test.

Online Resources
For online service and support information, go to www.apple.com/support. You can
search the AppleCare Knowledge Base, check for software updates, or get help on
Apple’s discussion forums.
