This page was most recent revised date Mar 24 2008.
If you don't see a part here, look for the system it works with, or a Web page which lists a specfic kind of part, by checking the links and categories on my my Mac home page. Or describe to me the part and the system and ask for price and availability. But a little searching on my Web site may find it.
All parts are used and tested unless noted. I have some UNUSED parts, check my unused parts list for specifics. Also, consider buying a stripped system for the parts: it's a better deal!.
When ordering, please follow this link for ordering information, terms and conditions, and info about orders outside the USA.
Parts on this page are:
For parts not on this page:
please include system model and if possible DRIVE MODEL number when ordering. I have some UNUSED parts, check my unused parts list for specifics. As of 2007, all used floppy drives sold will be cleaned, lubricated, and tested. This is required due to their age and use. Even a drive rarely used, will get gummed up from the age of lubricant plus the years of dust. Prices for these drives reflect the time and effort I've put in.
As of 2005, some information on Apple floppy drives is on this Web page, a private Web site. Here's a link to another Web site which has a history of Apple floppy drives. Yet another link on the FIRST 3.5" drive is at this private page but it may not persist.
The 1.4Mb floppy come in several different models but in two general forms or mechanism. Some are all labled "2MB" as that is the UNformatted capacity of the diskette. Approximate shipping weight under 2 lbs. The older drives cost more, as they are harder to find in good condition.
The 1.4Mb "black door" floppy was made by Sony or Mitsubishi or Panasonic, such as this image of a 1.4Mb Mitsubishi MF355-F drive. The Sony model number is MPF52A and looks similar, with the same black front "door". It's typically used on PowerMacs and later model Performa and Quadras.
The older 1.4Mb drive as an older model is made by Sony and is model MP-F75W-21G or MFD-75W-01G. It was used from the SE/30 through the Mac II's, and early Performas and Quadras and other 68030 and 68040 processor based systems. It does not have a door on the front, and it looks more like the older 800K floppy drive. This drive was also used in Apple's external 1.4M floppy drives.
1.4Mb "black door" floppy drive, MF355-F or MPF52A. Used, cleaned and tested, $25 plus shipping.
1.4Mb "black door" floppy drive, Panasonic JU-268A016C. Used, cleaned and tested, $25 plus shipping.
older 1.4Mb floppy drive, older Sony "75W" drive. Used, cleaned and tested, $35 plus shipping.
1.4Mb external floppy drive, "Superdrive" model G7287, with Sony 75W type drive, "ridged case.
This is an internal 1.4M drive in an external case. Ask for availability and price. We can offer to put a 1.4M drive in an 800K case if that is not an issue with you, as we have more 800K cases than 1.4M cases. Minimum price is $45 plus shipping and packing, for cleaned and lubricated and tested drive. wt. 5 lbs
The 800K drive was only in the Macintosh 512KE, Plus, SE, II systems; and in the Apple IIgs.
If you look at the actual internal floppy drive, you should see the following numbers:
661-0305 nameplate is BLACK-lettered, "MFD-51W" OR
661-0345 nameplate is RED lettered, "MFD-51W-03" or
"MFD-51W-10"
800K internal floppy drive (either model, used, tested and working, $35 plus shipping, ship wt. 3 lbs.
800K external floppy drive: prices are for faded case color but cleaned and working drives. These came in two models:
A9M0106, labled "Apple 3.5 Drive", case top has ridges, has "red nameplate" drive inside
AM0103, labled "Apple 800K drive", case top is flat, "black nameplate" drive inside
-- external model A9M0106, ridged case: $49 each plus ship., wt. 5 lbs.
-- external model AM0103, flat case, $45 each plus ship., wt. 5 lbs.
-- If you want an unfaded model, check with me for availability and higher price.
The 400K drive was only used in the 128K and 512K computers.
Here is a link to a photo of a 400K drive.. There may be
a model number on the drive itself, "661-76156". These drives were also sold as
EXTERNAL drives. As this item is a rare and "collectable" item for early Macs, and it needs
repair and cleaining before selling, please look for prices and availability on my Mac collectables page.
For floppy drives for Mac laptops, check my Mac Laptops accessory section.
New 1.4M Mac diskettes can still be bought at office supply stores, as PC/Windows formatted diskettes. You can reformat these for your Mac - reformat them or the Mac will either use them as PC disks, or older Macs may insist on a reformat.
Unused SEALED BOX, 800K DS/DD diskettes, box of 10, $12 plus ship.
Shipping weight .5 lbs plus 1 pound per ten disks.
---above 800K disks include lables. You will have to format these for
---your Mac. Also can be formatted as 400K disks (SS/DD).
Used 800K diskettes not available: they are too old to be considered reliable.
Used 400K diskettes not available: they are too old to be considered reliable.
ZIP drives and ZIP disks are in my ZIP section of my drives page.
Logic cards are also called the CPU card or motherboard.
For PowerMacs there may also be a seperate processor card. Some Macs have removable CPU chips. ROMS or ROM SIMMS are included with motherboards, but not RAM. Sometimes
I'll include VRAM or cache, ask to be sure. CPU chips are listed in our cards page on accelerators and caches.
If you need a logic/CPU card/motherboard from a system I
have for sale, ask for it! I often price motherboards on the same pages as their systems,
so look there first. Prices will often be about half the price of a minimal
system, but this varies: the fastest processor speed of a model series
usually costs more. Check my Mac home page
to look for links to my Mac systems by model and type. Ask for details and
prices but please NAME THE MAC MODEL AND SPEED (like PowerMac 9600/233).
I have some UNUSED parts, check my unused parts list for specifics.
The "programmers switch" or "reset switch" is that little plastic device on the side or front of your Mac which lets you manually reset the computer. THIS IS NOT THE POWER BUTTON, that's another button elsewhere on the chassis. On the oldest of Macs, these fragile plastic assemblies become brittle, so they are harder to find intact with age. But many PowerMacs of the 1990's have broken programmer's switches.
128K or 512K or Plus, tan: see our collectables section The power switch on some Macs turns the Mac on and off. In some early Macs it is part of the
power supply, and so is sold with the power supply. In other Macs it's the button on
the front which you press to start and shut down the Mac. Tell us the model of your Mac and we'll probably know
what to offer. Note: if your Mac does not power up, make sure your AC cord is OK and that you have AC power
where you plug in that cord. Also check your internal Mac PRAM battery
as some Macs will not power up unless the battery is good.
Power supplies for most models of Macs.
Specify the Mac model, and the power supply model number if you can. The power supplies
below are GOOD USED PULLED from working Macs. Prices are modest, but these are anywhere from several to 15 or more years old! If we have better parts at a higher price, we'll advise when you order.
For laptop "A/C cords" or power supplies, check my Mac Laptops page.
I have some UNUSED Apple parts, check my unused parts list for specifics.
128K/512K/Plus compatible analog or power supply cards, $59. Good HV supply, no arcing! shipping wt. 10 lbs For power supplies from other Mac systems, if I have the system I probably
can offer the power supply. You can always ask. Most of my parts stock are from G3 and EARLIER
Mac systems. Check my Mac home page
for links to systems and see what systems I stock, from which I can offer power supplies. When ordering, please follow this link for
ordering information, terms and conditions, and info about
orders outside the USA.
(Any Mac laptop batteries would be in our Mac Laptops Web page.)
This is what the battery often looks like in your Mac. Most but the very oldest Macs use what is called a "1/2 AA" battery (see below for other Mac batteries). It's shorter than an AA battery, but with a voltage of 3.6 volts. If the voltage drops below about 3.2 volts, it's getting old: often they will read ZERO volts when they stop working. You can use a voltmeter to measure the voltage; if you remove it from your Mac you may have to "reset your PRAM" afterward. As of 2005, it's harder to find these batteries in stores; some will charge up to $18 AND it may be a special-order item! Also, some models of this battery are TOO LONG by a few millimeters. We offer the correct sized battery.
For most Macs, there is also a battery cover which holds the battery in place. it's a plastic frame surrounding the battery which snaps out. Apple number 520-0344. It might break from age when you remove the battery. It's not essential but if you want one, it's $3 if you order with the battery, $4 otherwise.
Mac PRAM battery, 3.6V 1/2AA, most Macs. Part numbers TL-5101S TL-5101/S 742-0011 922-1262. Battery manufacturers have their own brand and part numbers. NEW stock, not used. $8 plus shipping. Minimum shipping charge $5 by first class mail anywhere in the United States. We suggest you order with other items to save on shipping. Our stock on these may be intermittant so don't delay.
Mac PRAM battery for Mac Plus, 128K, 512K This is a larger battery than the "1/2AA" battery above. Contact us if you need one of these, but we won't stock new ones due to low demand. We can order several at a time if we get some requests.
Mac PRAM battery, square Some Mac systems use a square or rectangular 4.5V battery, with a short black and red cable which connects it to the motherboard. We don't stock this at this time; check with local computer stores, office supply stores, or Radio Shack and take it along so they can determine if they have a compatible battery. (Removing the battery from your Mac will erase the PRAM and stop the date/time clock: do this at your own risk.)
CRT (picture tube) for Compact Macs, including yoke (the coils around the neck of the CRT). Just plug it in, may need some slight adjustment. Used but with a good, unburned-in screen. We don't stock CRT's or picture tubes for the "all in one" Macs, and frankly we've not had orders for them. But we may have a system in parts from which we can sell the CRT in the chassis. Ask, but this will not be cheap due to the time and cautions needed to pack, if we have one available.
If you need a replacement case PART, or a whole case, for your Mac system, first check my
Mac home page and look for that system's Web page. Then
see if I list parts there. Some case parts, including laptop parts, are listed with my
new or unused Mac parts.
Also consider buying a "stripped" system (no RAM, drives) and get some spare parts as
a result AND the case you want. Shipping costs may not be much more.
Cases for the "Compact" Macs (with 9-inch CRT's) will be sold
sparingly unless you can accept a case with some cosmetic fading.
We reserve our better cases for complete machines. Those cases or systems
may be listed in our Mac collectables section.
For G3 or G4 cases or case parts, check my iMac G3 G4 Web page

This section is for external cables: if you need internal cables, tell me what Mac model
you have and what kind of cable you need. For external SCSI drive (hard drive, CD-ROM) cables and terminators,
see the Mac hard drives cables section. Video cables
are in my monitors section. Internal laptop cables are in
my laptop section. Any Appletalk or Phonenet or items will be on our networking page.Technical information on modem cables may be found on my Mac modem page.
I also have some UNUSED parts, check my unused parts list for specifics.
Here is some cabling terminology.
"DIN-8" or "miniDIN-8" are the names of the connector used by most Macs for their (serial)
printer and modem connections; it's round and has 8 pins. "DB-25" is a name for the 25-pin connector
that many older Macs used for SCSI. In the serial world it is sometimes
used for modems. The Apple Imagewriter (1) used it also. The DB-25 connector
is a D-shaped connector with two rows of pins, up to 25 pins total. The Mac Plus,
128K and 512K used some DB-9 connectors: this is D-shaped with two rows of 9 pin total.
Macs have used "ADB" connectors for keyboards and mice since the Mac SE, and until USB; check the
keyboard section for ADB cables. (Cables for networks are described
in our networking section.)
Apple has a list of Macintosh port pinouts (cable pinouts)
at this link as of 2005
titled "technical note HW19 Pinouts" in their retired TechNotes section.
Mac DIN8 printer/modem cables to DIN-8. For Apple printers, modems,
or Apple-compatible products for printing and modem. Mac DIN-8 printer/modem port to DB-25 serial cables, Din-8 to DB-9 cables and adapters: Mac 128K/512K (DB-9) to Imagewriter I (DB-25) ORIGINAL APPLE cable 590-0169. Check our
Mac collectables page for details and price. power cords, AC cords for Apples in the USA. $1 each only with other purchases, not sold seperately.
These AC cords are very common and used for many non-Apple computers, so they are only
available if you are buying something else. If you want an original early
Apple A/C cord, check our Mac collectables page.
Internal cables for hard drive, floppy, power: Ask! be specific, tell me your Mac model, and
what the cable is used for. More information is better.
Any Appletalk or Phonenet or Ethernet or items will be on our networking page.
When ordering, please follow this link for
ordering information, terms and conditions, and info about
orders outside the USA.
The "short" keyboard was shipped with the Plus but will work with the 128K or 512K. The "long" keyboard was shipped with the Plus but will work with the 128K or 512K. Shipping weight 2 to 4 lbs. Follow the links for an image of the STYLE of item noted. The items below are in various cosmetic conditions and priced accordingly. Some of these have "color patches": a light rectangular patch where a lable was removed. I have some UNUSED parts, check my unused parts list for specifics.
Kensington trackballs for Mac Plus/128K/512K, Ask for availability.
Please don't ask me for "the keyboard or mouse which goes with my Mac". I
have no list of keyboards or mice by Mac system model. If you want a specific choice, we have a good stock and in good condition the "teardrop" mouse (2706) and the Apple Design Keyboard (M2980).
These are RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY, you are responsible for selecting a keyboard
appropriate to your needs.
Keyboard shipping weight 4 to 6 lbs per keyboard. Mouse shipping weight about 1 lbs. "Good color" means light but uniform fading of the grey color, no color patches
from old lables, no yellow. "minimal fading" means almost original light grey platinum. Either will have all Teflon pads in place. ADB "square" mouse, model G5431 or Apple M90331 mouse. $12 with good color but lightly faded. the following keyboards are in good cosmetic condition: excellent or unused are in our collectables page.
Note: Some people want the cheapest keyboard and don't care about cosmetics or discoloration. In 2006 we have discontinued offering them, as we must conserve space for better inventory.
ADB coiled keyboard cable only, $2 See my Mac Laptop accessories section for
laptop keyboards and for external Numeric Keypads.
Kensington trackballs for Apple ADB mouse port, two or three buttons, $25 each plus ship.
non-Apple ADB mice: Over the years, I've accumulated a number of ADB mice, trackballs, and joysticks. Most are in cosmetically fair condition - faded, dirty, but likely working. Some are in good condition - lightly faded. Here's SOME of what I have in 2 or 3 button mice. Supplies limited. $15 each.
Mouse systems 3-button w/ball, MacPoint Pro 404179-001, fair to good PowerComputing branded keyboards are available for $10 each.
Appoint brand ADB mice
Appoint Computer Color Crayon. Looks like a large crayon with ADB cable. Has trackball at
"tip". Unused in original packing. $15 plus shipping. Wacom 0608 ADB tablet. This connects to the Mac via the ADB (mouse/keyboard) port and
is used like a mouse. There is a pen which is used with the tablet. We have an original diskette
with software. Tablet is about 10" X 12", active area 10" by 8". Weight about 7 lbs packed. $29 plus
shipping.
When ordering, please follow this link for
ordering information, terms and conditions, and info about

If you need an internal fan for a Mac, give me the model and I'll see what I
can find as a used fan. Fans inside the power supply are a bit tricky, I'd rather just
sell the power supply, and we have those.
The bag shown is probably manufactured by Targus, certainly it is not
an Apple manufactured item. it has a side pouch for the keyboard, a flat
side pouch presumably for manuals, a shoulder strap and handles.
Some of these have dust covers for the computers as well, some with
university school colors. I provide those for $5 more with the bag.
Non-Apple brand bags are $35 each plus shipping, ask what colors I have. When ordering, please follow this link for
ordering information, terms and conditions, and info about
orders outside the USA. We don't sell VGA-type or late model Apple monitors. We keep a small stock of the earliest non-VGA Apple monitors,
as listed below. We also offer some Mac DB-15 to VGA HD-15 adapters, so VGA-type monitors can be used with some older Macs as noted above. We also offer some Apple video cables with various connectors, specifics below.
More technical information follows the listings below. Technical details about
monitors are at this link.
Apple 12-inch monochrome Display monitor. Small, non-VGA, DB-15. $49 plus shipping. Mac video monitor cables, DB-15 to DB-15: 2-3 foot, $8; 5-6 foot, $12 Mac video to VGA adapters are described and priced at this link.
When ordering, please follow this link for
ordering information, terms and conditions, and info about
orders outside the USA.
For general remarks on Apple monitors, see the remarks above our listings and prices.
PowerMac systems (and some earlier Macs or Apple video cards for them).
can generally operate with superVGA (SVGA) monitors with a DB-15 female to HD-15 male
(Mac to superVGA) video connector adapter but with limitations, as we describe below.. Check Apple's Web site for tech specifications of all their old monitors, via my Web pointers page. Apple's list of monitors by model number is on this page. Also look at my info file on monitors for scanning (horizontal, vertical) frequencies. For video cards, see the see our Web page on cards and look for NuBus, PCI, or other video cards to match your system.
Many of the Apple 17", 19" and 21" monitors will work with
Windows PCs if you use a DB-15 male to HD-15 female (Mac to superVGA) video connector adapter.
Some Apple monitors already come with a HD-15 VGA connector. Check above for prices, below for details.
PowerMac 6100, 7100, 8100 systems provide video on high-density A/V video connector (HDI45-M).
An adapter cable from that HDI45 connector to a DB-15 connector lets you use standard Apple monitors. Add another
adapter, from DB-15 to HD-15, to connect to some VGA monitors. Both adapters are offered above. Details on
the DB-15 to HD-15 (Mac to VGA) adapter are below.
Mac "Portrait Monitor" monitor and video cards use a 13W3 connector. The 13W3
has one or three large coaxial (round) connector pins and several small pins. Prices for cables
are listed above. Video cards for these monitors are listed on my Mac cards page. When ordering, please follow this link for
ordering information, terms and conditions, and info about
orders outside the USA.
The VERY oldest Macs and
video cards (Mac IIci, IIcx, IIsi, II, LC) may simply not provide correct video signals for
ANY VGA MONITOR. We offer older Apple monitors for these systems in this linked section.
Technical details of monitors are at this link. For later Macs, they can often use
a VGA type monitor if you provide the proper adapter to connect your Mac to a VGA monitor.
Here's a description of connnectors used for video.
The DB-15. is an older Apple video connector with a row of 8 pins and a row of 7 pins. PowerMac systems (and some Quadra/Performa systems)
can generally operate with superVGA (SVGA) monitors with a DB-15 male to HD-15 female
(Mac to VGA) video connector adapter
(with limitations). Also, many of the Mac 17", 19" and 21" monitors will work with
Windows PCs with a DB-15 female to HD-15 male (Mac to superVGA) video connector adapter.
Here's a photo of typical Mac to VGA adapters. These simple adapters have a DB-15 connector
for the Apple side, and a HD-15 (VGA) connector for the monitor or Windows system side.
"Male" connectors have pins, "female" connectors have sockets for the pins, my apologies for
this traditional description.
We have an assortment of these adapters. Some have switches on them (as in this photo)
to select multiple screen resolutions at startup.
(800X600, 1000X1200, etc). Adapters are offered AS IS, in part because the real
limitation is with the VGA monitor, NOT THE ADAPTER. Adapters with switches often have
instructions are on the device. Some adapters have no switch settings (as in this photo), they provide one fixed screen resolution when you start up. Generally, you can control screen resolution
and scanning frequencies via the Control Panel's "monitors" settings.
PLEASE NOTE: all these adapters do is provide "rewriring" of the cable, they do not
provide any video signal conversion whatsoever! You are limited by whatever video your computer or monitor can
provide or accept. Generally, you can control screen resolution
and scanning frequencies via the computer's Control Panel's "monitors" settings; monitors will
adjust to these frequencies within their limits, or display nothing. VERY OLD VGA monitors cannot
make such adjustments and may be damaged by some scan rates. All use of these adapters are
up to you, we offer no warrenties or guarantees because of all these limitations. But we've sold a lot
of these without complaints.
Mac video & VGA adapters:BR>
DB-15 male (to Mac computer video connector) to HD-15 female (to VGA monitor cable) adapter, 15$ plus shipping. PowerMac high-density A/V video connector (HDI45-M) to Mac video (DB-15)
cable or adapter, for PowerMac 6100, 7100, 8100: $19 plus shipping. If you want to connect this
to a VGA type monitor, add one of the Mac to VGA adapters above.
Video cables and adapters are listed and priced in this linked section.

I really can't afford to offer these, but I have a thought. Get a bicycle
inner tube repair kit. That includes rubber cement and a number of rubber
patches. Cut those patches to size, stack up as needed for more thickness. Please don't
cut yourself and blame me. Hope this helps, but if you must you can contact me
and ask for rubber feet by Mac system model.
The compact Macs from the 128K to the Classic II all use a special
screw to hold their cases together. The star-headed screw requires a
Torx size T-15 bit to be turned; and the depth of the handle requires
that bit to be on a shaft at least FIVE INCHES long.

Mac PRAM batteries
Your Mac computer uses an internal battery to provide power to what Apple calls the "PRAM", and to run the date and time clock, even when your computer is turned off. PRAM holds data about your computer's basic features and setups. If your battery is dead, most Macs will not even power up! If your date and time are radically incorrect, that's a sign your PRAM battery is dead. Sometimes these batteries corrode and leak; check this if your Mac is several years old, and remove batteries from Macs that will be stored for years, ESPECIALLY IN HUMID CONDITIONS.

These keyboards and mice are usable on almost all Macs, from the SE to Power

and a small plastic pin near the center. Use the images, keyboard name, or
keyboard model number to select which keyboard you wish. Keyboards include cable.

Mac Monitors, video cables
Here's a typical older Apple monitor.
Early Macs like the Mac II, IIsi, IIci, LC, used small Apple
brand monitors, 12" or 13" or 14" or 15". These monitors cannot be replaced
with VGA or superVGA type monitors because some video scanning frequencies (horizontal and vertical
frequencies) of those older Macs are NOT COMPATIBLE with frequencies available from VGA-type monitors.
Apple also made 14-inch and 15-inch "multiple scan" monitors which support both VGA type frequencies as well as the older Apple video frequencies.
Apple multiple scan 14 inch monitor 14", DB-15 are $59 plus shipping.
Apple Color Plus 14 Inch display 14" monitors, non VGA, DB-15, model M2346LL/A are $59 plus shipping.
