THANK you so much!!!

Great thanks

Thanks -- your instructions made an intimidating project very "do-able." Now my iBook G4 is up and running like new. The only unexpectedly tough part was unscrewing/rescrewing the four mounting screws on the hard drive itself. I didn't have the correct "star-tip" screwdriver, and the things were screwed in so tightly that pliers didn't work, but a tech at Best Buy helped me out. So to anyone contemplating doing this, have the right tool on hand, or the final step will be the most frustrating!

just looked at imac all you had to do was remove battery and connector bar pull out tab and remove hdd to replace just reverse what you have just done.

Thank you for this wonderful video! Helped a lot as a part of my training! I repair and rebuild computers (very odd for a high schooler), and I had no idea that it would be that complicated. Yes, I agree with people that the iBook line both G3 and G4 had the worst design for hard drive replacements. I guess it was Apple's way to keep people out of the computer and only Apple Tech's can get into it.

OMG, I gave up halfway thru, I upgraded the hard-drive on my Macbook, no problems, but this is ridiculous, Id rather pay someone to deal with this, HUGE pain in the ass

@DKassaian1219 Not sure why no one answered ur question, but yes, because u are going from a PC to Mac ur gonna have to reformat, its not even gonna recognize the harddrive until you do
-
@DKassaian1219 yes it will , and you will need to re-install Mac OS X

RIDICULOUS. To remove the hard drive from almost ANY other notebook computer, one, maybe two screws.
Apples are junk.
