iMac G5, 17", 1.8GHz, 512MBRam, 10.4.8. ppc I start up iPhoto 6.0.(?), the spinning wheel spins for a long time while displaying 'uploading photos', then quits. After a few times of this I went to Apple to get an update, when installing the update the message says it cannot find a (valid?)...

Generally, divide it by three and allow a 1/16th inch (or less) over hang on the front panel so that it easily lifts open to read it, your back panel will be just a little shorter in width as it typically folds into the center panel. Panels are basically; front=3 11/16", center=3 5/8", back=3...

Yes, there is a good reason to keep classic and OS 9. I asked if it was okay to dump the same as well as clearing all the extra folders with all the languages that come with applications so I could free up some memory, etc. I was told it would not be a problem, so I did. Lo and behold, a few...

Apple recently replaced the HD on my G5 iMac and loaded 10.4.6 on it. I do not have classic or os 9 on the drive. I went to the install disk ( DVD 2) for os9 and get the message after clicking 'install mac os 9 system support': "You cannot continue. There is nothing to install." The 'pkg'...

Okay, at this point then it would be my best bet to go with the G4 powerbook, I do not have the specs on that one. As stated, it is brushed aluminum case, 15" screen, yet looking at my flat screen monitor (a 17"), the one I had seen may be a 17". This is about 3 yrs old, barely used. Any...

I have looked in previously posted forum replies and found nothing or not enough info to answer the following questions: I have acccess to this laptop: powerbook G3 series; 14.1TFT/233MHz-512K/32MB/2GB HD/4MB video/CD/modem---it is the old barebones black one, has OS 9 on it. I am okay with...

Every time I go online and sign into just about anything (w/Safari) a pop up shows wanting to-- 'unlock keychain' 'please enter your keychain password'--etc. I have been just clicking cancel and continuing on with my business, but it is a pain in the a-- to do this all the time. 1) My...

First; I can only say what I have experienced, the symptoms on my G5 iMac power pc (not intel) were similar. So, to cut through the chase, my HD was bad and Apple replaced it. This is what was happening on my system with CS2: I had been using Illustrator for developing a type face. After a...

Apple replaced the HD on my G5 iMac. My LogicPro and Harmon-Kardin speakers worked perfectly before replacing the HD, now I only get the onboard speakers. My extern al speakers never showed in 'profiler' or anywhere else but they worked before. Is there a way to get the machine to recognize...

I just had the (warranty) HD replaced on my iMac G5, now it will not accept the password. I went to the 10.4 install disk, clicked the 'install' button with the intention on resetting the password after the machine restarts. It requires a password to install OS X... --->At first I could not...

I ran the terminal commands last nite, it seemed to be taking a long time so I let it run overnight, this morning it was still not done (?) so I quit it. I ran MacJanitor, it cleared some of the files. Presently I do not have time before work to check further. I do not think the terminal...

I had installed 10.3 over the 10.2.8, full install without erasing- My ext HD is USB and I understand I cannot boot 10.4 to the older front slotload from the ext HD if it is not a firewire connection-this would have allowed me almost 80GB more of memory had I been able to utilize it (home...

My G5 iMac is getting a new harddrive, meanwhile I had to fire up my older front, slotload IMac (G3), it has 10.3.9 installed and 250GB external harddrive. Unfortunately, this little iMac only has 30GB on board memory. Here is one of two questions: After the 10.3.9 install/upgrade I only...

Thanx, I just posted a question on determining if a file is corrupt or not. I do nopt want to put these files on an external drive and then bring them back in and have it all start over. Is there a way to be sure that none of the old preferrences and such are being brought in? I understand to...

Like the title, how do i determine what files may be corrupted? I do not want to bring in a corrupted file to a newly installed 10.4 os on an iMac G5. john

I had done what i thought was a clean reinstall, but I guess not. How do i determine what is corrupting the system? I know it will require loosing some data, hopefully the corrupted data. Is there anyway to check the files when bringing them in from my other system soo i don't have the same...

This is how I see it (oh, this is an iMac G5, 1.8GHz, 17", 512 DDRAM): Adobe Illustrator started to crash, eventually I would click the app icon and immediately get the failed to launch message. Then my Illustrator files began getting corrupted, 'Unknown format', 'PDF file not compatable'...

Some sites allow avatars to be uploaded, I notice some are very clear and detailed, looking as though they are much more than 50 X 50 pxls at 72ppi (this is the limitation at most of these sites). What do I need to do to create these very detailed looking graphics within the above specs?
