My iBook G3 suffered a video failure back in November. I thought it was the video cable and just got around to installing a used one from eBay a few days ago. Didn't work, the screen still jittered and the computer still locked up. However, I could put my elbow on the airport card and it...

Dear Apple, Thanks to your AppleCare repair department (the place you send all student computers to for repair), my iBook is broken. I had it sent in twice before the warranty was up for the same video problem and it happened a third time outside of warranty. The third time completely...

I have an iBook G3 that took a dump on me for a bad video cable. My brother opened and disconnected the video cable to stop the computer from having seizures. It starts up fine and I can log in (assumed) based on the noises the hard drive makes, however the external screen it's attached to...

The software is El Gato's program to use the Eye TV. It allows you to change the channels, view in different sizes from a small window to full screen. Also serves as a PVR (Personal Video Recorder). You can schedule times for it to record shows. Afterwards you can go back and edit out...

I have an El Gato Eye TV USB model for sale. I bought it almost 2 years ago to use for watching TV up at school. This year I have used it only a handful of times and decided it's time to part with it. The device is in excellent condition. It will ship with the box and 1 USB cable. I will...

I'm trying to create a script that could instant message someone in iChat. So far I have: tell application "iChat" to activate tell application "System Events" tell process "iChat" tell menu item 2 of menu 3 of menu bar 1 to click keystroke "xxx" delay 1 (WHAT DO I DO HERE?) keystroke...

I ended up ordering some from Macmall.com. My school is in the middle of nowhere so the only electronics places are Staples, WalMart, and Radio Shack. I ended up getting a 512mb PC133 module form MacMall - it was $113 after shipping. The description said it was made for my computer and the...

I think it's finally time to upgrade my laptops memory. It's been quite a bit on the sluggish side and upgrading the memory should stop the hard drive rattling and beachball I keep seeing whenever more than 1 program is open. I want to get a 512mb module - any recommendations on brand? I'm...

Back when I was younger I didn't back my stuff up. The hard drive on my 3400 took a dump and I lost everything I had ever created from 6th grade up to probably 10th grade. Now that I'm older I have learned. The iPod holds my music and pictures (most important stuff in my opinion). My bank...

I've tried both with the charger plugged in and the charger unplugged and it does it. It's only when my roommate has his screen name logged in (with mine also running) that it seems to do this.

I have 10.3.4 . I just added a "managed" user account for my roommate so he can get onto my computer without my mess of a user account confusing him. Both accounts were logged in and the computer would be put to sleep since we weren't using it. Later on, one of us would open it and log in...

I dug through Apple's discussion and it just so happens that yesterday someone posted a solution to my problems. For anyone having trouble with this/any router, make sure the preamble is set to "Long Preamble". On the D-Link, log into the web interface (over Ethernet connection). Click on the...

I just got a D-Link DI-514 router for school. It's suppose to Mac compatible but I'm having issues getting my iBook to connect wirelessly. Wired works perfect. When you connect wirelessly, it lets you connect to the router but doesn't let you do anything. You can't access any web sites; you...

Thank you so much for the quick response! My problem is fixed! Now how did you search for that article? I tried to locate their knowledge database but didn't have luck. Thanks!

I FINALLY updated to Panther last night and was running the updates today and ran into a problem. I went to install the Java update and it gives me an error saying I have to update to Java 1.4.1 before I can update to Java 1.4.2. So I went and downloaded the Panther 1.4.1 Java update from...

My laptop only has 256mb of ram. I know that it could use more but I don't have the money at the moment with school and a car to take care of. I'm still running Jaguar so I don't think journaling could be turned on. I have over 7gb free on the hard drive so the virtual memory swap has more...

My iBook hasn't been restarted in 8 days or so. I've gotten by without a restart for up to a month with no issues. But for some reason it's running like poopoo. If you click on something in the dock it takes a good 3 seconds for it to register and start bouncing. When iTunes loads, the beach...

Lol yes I did paint a Newton. That was also back in like 10th grade when my brain wasn't completely formed. I had one in 9th and sold it, then wanted another so I bought another. After having it sit around for awhile I decided that I wanted to attempt to paint it since the original color...
