Hello Support,
I need firmware update for my G3 blue & white mac (yosemite).
I'm running OSX.4.10 without OS 9. Don't want OS 9.
Where can I download a copy?
,Paul
Without having Mac OS 9 or earlier installed on it, nowhere; the updater is available here, but can’t be run from Mac OS X.

Why do you think you need a firmware update. I doubt 10.4 would run on the iMac g3 without the correct firmware.
1) Mac OS X, use the System Profiler.
Apple -> About This Mac
click on the More Info... tab
click on Hardware
read the Boot ROM Version
2) Open Firmware, boot into Open Firmware.
Power on your iMac while holding down command+option+o+f
The first output line contains the firmware level. Mine reads:
Apple PowerMac4,1 4.1.9f1 BootRom built on 09/14/01 at 13.18.04
Copyright 1994-2001 Apple Computer Inc.
On my machine, I have 4.1.9f1.
This thread is about a Power Mac G3, not an iMac G3.
