iMac 24" (M4, 2024) Repair

Apple refreshed their 24” iMac in October 2024 with the new M4 SoC, after a similar update to the M3 a year earlier. Its design is still unchanged from the previous models, with signature white bezels, similar-but-updated vibrant colors, and a thin 11.5 mm profile.

In the wake of updating its machines to support Apple Intelligence, the updated iMac was released alongside a completely redesigned Mac mini and the introduction of M4 series chips to the MacBook Pros. To support new AI processing, all Macs (this iMac included) now start at 16 GB of unified memory as standard, double the previous 8 GB.

In addition to the M4 SoC, the 2024 iMac now has a nano-texture glass option and an updated 12 MP Center Stage camera with support for Desk View.

The 2024 24" iMac still starts at $1299 (with doubled base memory), and is available in either blue, green, yellow, orange, pink, purple, or silver. Previous generations locked some colors behind upgraded models—but for 2024, all colors are available on all models.

The 2024 24” iMac ships with a Magic Keyboard, a Magic Mouse, and a braided magnetic charging connector, all color-matched. All accessories now use USB-C instead of Lightning.

Identify your iMac by the model number or EMC number printed on the foot (the bottom of the stand).

You can also find the model number through macOS by choosing About This Mac from the Apple menu  in the upper-left corner of the screen.
