    Firefox Add-Ons aren't "adding on"

    I have a PowerBook G4. I have found that anytime I try to download a Firefox add-on, I get the pop-up window asking permission to install, I grant permission to install, I can see the download, and then NOTHING is showing up in the "Add-On" pop-up window under the "Installation" tab. I have...

    PowerBook G4 will NOT boot up. :-(

    I have a PowerBook G4 purchased directly from apple as a refurb in January of '06, so still within the 1 year warrantly, but the last time I called under warranty they wanted to troubleshoot for software problems before they'd accept it back. So I thought I might ask for input before I called...

    iBook G3 battery in a PowerBook G4?

    I'm probably all wet here, which is why I wanted to get some learned opinions before I even seriously considered this option... My new PowerBook G4's battery was, lucky me, among those recently recalled. I dutifully ordered my replacement, and have set aside the old battery for return. In...

    Mail program won't open

    I have a PowerBook G4 with Mac OS X 10.4.5. I have owned the computer since early 2006 without any troubles. A couple days ago, I noticed that when I double-clicked on my Mail program, it would bounce in Dock, but then never actually open the program. If I go into Applications, it tells me...

    Sound cuts in and out.

    I am hopeful that someone might be able to walk me through troubleshooting this. I have a PowerBook G4 with 10.4.5, purchased as a refurb from Apple in January of this year. Yesterday while watching videos the sound was fading in and out, and I initially thought it was a problem with the video...

    Refurbished means dead?

    On Tuesday, January 10, 2006, I ordered a refurbished Powerbook G4 1.5 GHz. My iBook G3 had suffered the fateful logic board malfunction several days prior, and I put off ordering a replacement until after MacWorld, then made my decision about what product I should order, and placed the order...

    Google Earth is now available for Mac!

    WooHoo. I don't know if this is the right forum for this; if it isn't, could a mod move it? Does this forum support that? I didn't notice the announcement in any other forums, did a search and everything, but if it is a duplicate, feel free to delete. Anyhow, as the topic indicated...

    Relatively new Mac user with question about MacBook Pro v. Powerbook v. iBook

    I am probably jumping the gun a little here, but I will go ahead anyhow in case I can make a decision right now. At the beginning of October (2005), I told my brother that as an early Christmas present I would buy him a new laptop, within my price range of course, on the condition that he would...

    Booting from a dmg OR maybe from a home network?

    My quandry is thus. I am the not proud but rather quite frustrated owner of an iBook with a broken CD drive. I am also the owner of a DMG file. Normally, of course, this file would be burned to a CD and thencely secured in the computer's CD drive for no-fuss no-muss bootup. Alas, with my...
