[QUOTE="Badger, post: 30649"] I ran across a reference that dead firewire ports are a common problem on the cube model. The listed cure was to use the programmer's reset. The instructions are: "Shut down the computer, hold down the programmer reset, and press the power button. If you've done things correctly the power light will flicker." The writer had no idea why the FW ports went out or why the reset brought them back. I have no idea if this will do it for your iMac but you may want to try it. Badger [/QUOTE]
