    Computer wont sleep

    What kind of third party add ons do you have? Any PCI cards, USB devices, upgraded non apple ram? Try removing them all and see if you still have the same problem. Another thought...have you tried an archive and install of the OS?

    Quicktime Pro - Export to AppleTV Option

    Thanks Fryke, you answered my question perfectly. Just out of curiosity do you, or anyone else reading, have any experience with the speed difference regarding the encoding of movies between a Dual 1GHZ G4 and a current model MacPro? Or even say your MacBook? I'm curious because I've...

    Quicktime Pro - Export to AppleTV Option

    Has anyone tried exporting a video from quicktime using the 'Export to AppleTV' option? I tried exporting a PSP formated movie in MP4 format using this option. 7 hours later it is still processing on my Dual 1GHZ PowerMac G4. If this is going to take this long I can't imagine this being...

    37' Sceptre LCD Monitor/HDTV 1080p and PowerMac MDD

    I have an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro with 64MB of DDR SDRAM. Shouldn't that be able to handle it? Also the monitor is able to diskplay 640X480. I assume that the computer could at least display that.

    iMac having some hard times :(

    just use the disc you have now to reformat and reinstall. If that doesn't work then your drive may be going bad. If you are really in a pinch you could try disk warrior, otherwise reformat it.

    PowerMac G4 Hardware Additions, Failures - Your Opinion

    I've had a number of problems with added hardware to my Dual 1GHZ PowerMac G4 MDD. In the beginning it was Ram issues. Then when I added a USB 2.0 card the machine would no longer wake from 'deep sleep'. I've also replaced the original superdrive with a much faster 16X LiteOn SuperDrive and a...

    Backup Question for G4

    I personally would buy an extra hard drive and stick it in there (I'm assuming this is a G4 tower). You can then back up the data as needed using a number of different software back up solutions.

    Please help.... boot problems

    There is nothing wrong with her loading all of her music and videos onto her computer. The way a Mac orgainizes one's music and video is one of its greatest features. If she is running low on space, then I recommend upgrading to a larger drive or getting an external drive. Good Luck!

    won't wake out of sleep mode

    I have the MDD dual 1GHZ. I have the same problem. However mine is related to the upgraded DVD-R/W drives and the USB 2.0 card I have installed. I do remember having trouble with my RAM when I bought 2 512mb sticks from MemoryX.com. However the trouble I had was related to the original 256mb...
