When i am online (telephone hookup) the computer will not notify me when there is an incoming phone call. I have an iMac G3 20" that is under warranty until August 2006. An apple tech has worked with me on this but is now on vacation until end of May.
I believe most everything has been done to correct this problem but to no avail. A new full installation of OS X 10.4.6 has been done.
When the computer is first started up in the morning after an all night shut down the computer will notify of an incoming phone call on the first ring and on the first call in. After that it will not work. I have learned today that after a four hour shut down the notification will be made on the first ring on the first call in.
I have given up on Apple Tech (until original tech that worked with me returns) as the last Tech there asked me if I wanted to cancel my request to repair this problem. That is signal they want to get rid of me!
I am of the belief that there is an electrical problem in the CPU that will not respond to the Call Waiting signal. Perhaps a defective electronic switch that sends the notice to the screen of an incoming call when the computer is on line with the telephone hook up.
I am hoping you may know of a similar problem that someone else has had.
Thank you for any asistance.
