Subject: Maintenance manuals
A while ago, if you were clever/lucky, you could get Apple maintenance
manuals in pdf format (not handbooks) by downloading them from the APPLE
Europe ftp site. I got a couple (for old kit) which have proved invaluable.
However, with the passage of time I find the need for a couple more but the
old ftp address has come up with a blank. Obviously Apple are not
interested in giving folk easy access to these things because they are
meant for the official repair chaps but, for those of us who know how to
use a soldering iron and how not to die from intimate struggles with a CRT,
it seems a little Blairish to take them away. Does anyone know if they
have been moved and, if so, where to?
I think you might find just what you're looking for at:
It's a source of downloadable Apple SERVICE MANUALS
that explain how to diagnose a problem and make repairs,
and what replacement parts are required. Lots of very
helpful diagrams (complete exploded views, etc.) of just
about every Mac made, from 128k's on up. Also has
manuals for Monitors, Hard Drives, CD Rom Drives,
and more. The kind of stuff an Apple technician probably
carries around in his tool kit. Better warm up that iron!
