23 inch and Powerbook G4

I am using dual display with a 23 inch cinema display and my Powerbook G4. It works great, but I would like to just disable my Powerbook's display completely, so that the entire desktop is on the cinema display. I haven't been able to find an option to do this. Is it possible? Thanks!

Hi, I have a setup similar to yours, I just close the lid down on my powerbook, the system then sleeps and I then wake it up using my external mouse or keyboard.

12-inch G4 powerbook 1.0GHz has kernel panics every restart

I have a 12-inch G4 powerbook 1.0Ghz machine that keeps having kernel panics every restart.
I have run the Apple Hardware Test, and this comes back fine saying there is nothing wrong with any of the hardware. I have reset the PRAM, and repaired the disc permissions.
I thought it might be a software issue, so I archived and re-installed the system software. Still didnt work. Then I tried the erase and install, still didnt work.
Is there anything else I can check to see what is causing the kernel panic. Anything else I can use to test the hardware to make sure. I have a bad feeling it is the logicboard even though the Apple Hardware Test said it was fine.
The kernel panic is also not even creating a log, so I cannot even let you know why it is causing the kernel panic. Any help will be much appreciated

Glad removing the Airport Extreme card worked. You can try wiping off the contacts with a lint free cloth, and replacing the Airport card making sure it is securely seated. Sometimes heating and cooling along with the normal handling of a laptop dislodges the card enough to cause problems. If that doesn't help you will need to get a new card.

Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail.

Hi
I got an e-mail stating that Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail, and that mine was one that may fail and to book an appointment with Genius to click here. So after making an appointment we then took out iMac to the shop affixing thirty minuets before appointment time and had to Waite until 12-45hrs. When we were told that we would have to leave the Mac with them for two to three days to replace the hard drive.
Can anyone advise, is this normal to make an appointment only to find that when you get to the Genius department in the Apple shop they then say because of the amount of iMacs that have come in today it will take days to replace?

Hi mende1
Thanks for replying but when anyone makes an appointment surely the work should be carried out then not to be told to come back days later especially when you have traveled over one hundred and fifty miles to get to the shops. It may have been a free replacement but the cost of petrol for the journey comes to more than one hundred euros.

IBook and Powerbook Poster

I just bought this Fabric Poster from apple. It has a picture of the iBook G4 and Powerbook G4 and in the middle it says "Too bad you only have one Lap"
Is this a geniune product, on the back it has a copyright date of 1996.
Where do you think this was used? When? Is it rare?
Its pretty big too, probably 2 feet wide and 4 feet tall?

The model 6,1 Late 2009 and the model 7,1 Mid 2010 use an A1331 battery. You can replace it yourself or have Apple do it for you for $129. If you need it quickly make sure you order it from a U. S. seller. Orders from China can take two or three weeks.

Here's installation instructions. You'll need a Tri Wing Y1 screwdriver in addition to the usual #00 Phillips screwdriver.

I have a new MacBook Air 11'inch and I presume that it should come with the iLife programs. However, when I signed into the appstore with my account I have used with all of my Mac products, it now said I had to purchase each program, like iPhoto, iMovie, ect. seperate. I have already logged in and out of my account and called the "free" part of tech support. How can I reslove this issue?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you really have a new MacBook, iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand come with the Mac for free.
As you see their price at the Mac App Store, it's clear that there's a problem with your MacBook. Simply return it if you purchased it less than 14 days ago and you will receive a new MacBook

Blackberry Playbook Overheated but works fine, screen is dark from edges about 1 inch and the rest is a light color

Hi,
I woke up this morning and tried picking up my playbook but it was very hot and also still charging, then I took it off of charge and I let it cool down. The playbook turns on and functions fine, but the screen is dark from around the edges (about 1 inch) and then light from the inner side. Also I never took my playbook into the sun or any other hot place and I think my factory blackberry playbook charger might be at fault. I didn't get any notification or any other type of hint from my playbook that it was hot or overheated. My playbook was turned off when it was charging and my bedroom was cool because of my A/C and ceiling fan. I don't understand how this happened and how can I make the screen go back to normal, It has been about 1 hour now and nothing has changed about the screen.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

My Playbook is fine now, the screen is normal again and the charger was at fault, but charge your BB playbook when itis turned on because my playbook was off and overheated and this was overnight. Also I resolved the screen problem by leaving it in a cool room in my home, and the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) crystals were probably just very hot and they had to cool down also the battery life is still the same . But the BB playbook is fine and works fast, also I still have all my files and every function work perfectly. I wrote this from the BB playbook.

Hey there ajj16452,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
From what I gather, your iTunes Store purchase didn't download completely and you’re looking for some troubleshooting suggestions. Take a look at the article linked below which provides a lot of great information that will resolve most iTunes Store download issues.

I have keynote on ipad2 and powerbook g4. if I send a keynote work from mac to Ipad, I cannot read it. any solution?

I have keynote on ipad2 and powerbook g4. if I send,by mail, a keynote work from mac to Ipad, I cannot read it.there is no problem fram Ipad to mac. any solution? thanks

How are you trying to transfer the Keynote presentation?
You can email the presentation to yourself and open it with Keynote on your iPad.
You can use iTunes. Connect your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes, go to the App Tab for your device and add your presentation to the Apps/Keynote section. Now if you touch the "+" in keynote on your iPad you will get the choice Copy from iTunes.
Your can setup iCloud on your laptop & iPad and save your Mac laptop presentation to iCloud and just open it on your iPad.
There are, of course many other ways, Dropbox, etc.

Do 17-inch and 20-inch iMac G5's have the same hard drive

I have two iMac G5's. One 17-inch 1.8Ghz, and the other a 20-inch 1.8Ghz.
The Hard drive is gone on the 20-inch. Is it possible to remove the hard drive from the 17-inch, and install it in the 20-inch. Do they both use the same Hard drive type?

All iMac G5s and Intel iMacs both use Serial ATA hard drives. You can happily and cheaply buy new larger capacity drives easily anywhere on the highstreet. I can't really see the point in using a 2-3 year old drive if you are going to the effort of cracking one of these things open:Examples of suitable drives.
Likewise you'll probably find a brand new Superdrive is faster and pretty cheap:

I want to buy a mac and i am confused between macbook air 13 inch and i mac. which one should i buy

actually i am new to mac so i am confused between macbook air 13 inch and i mac. which one should i buy? i will be installing windows 2 on it..

An MBA is a portable while an iMac is a desktop and is not portable. You could install Windows on either provided each had sufficient memory installed and a large enough hard drive. The iMac is better equipped for this from the outset, but the MBA can be adequately configured if you are willing to spend the money to do so.
