Can my G3 handle OS X 10.4?

Hi everyone, I'm a bit new with Macs, the OS, and the hardware. I'm a tech guy so don't be afraid to reply with technical info. What I need to know is if my G3 can handle 10.4 and if not what should I upgrade (i.e. speed and pin# for RAM would be appreciated.)? I got it for free so I have no plans to just buy a new one! Thanks
Power PC G3 Mac OS X (10.2.x) 500 Mhz, 384Mb RAM, AGP, 20 GB HD

I have used OS X 10.4 on an iBook with a G3 500mhz and it works just fine, as long as you have enough RAM. You should probably max out the RAM and if possible upgrade to a larger, faster hard drive.
If you are able to identify the Mac model you have, you can use Everymac.com to see exactly what type of RAM your system has:

If your system has a 500mhz processor, it probably has a DVD drive (or a DVD/CD-RW combo drive). This is important because OS X 10.4 comes on a DVD. If you only have a CD-ROM drive, you can order Tiger on CDs, but it'll cost an extra $10:

Can I get handle to Database Row before an entity is deleted

Hi,
We are using stored procedure to list, insert , update and delete entity objects.To use the stored procedure I override the default queries generated by Toplink and make use of the stored procedure query.The issue here is that my Stored Procedure requires more arguments (like name of the user doing the insert) than there are fields in the entity.I need to provide these argument values to the call.For this I do something like
session.getDescriptor(MyClass.class).getEventManager().addListener(new DescriptorEventAdapter(){
public void aboutToInsert(DescriptorEvent evt) {
evt.getRow().put("USER",evt.getSession().getProperty("username"));
I set the username in the unitOfWork out of which I can grab the value in the eventHandler and put it inside the row just before insert.I do the same for modify too.But I dont see a similar methods for "delete".Do we have a aboutToDelete() method where I can get a handle to the row.The preDelete() does not provide a handle to the row.How can I insert additional arg values to the delete query?
Thanks,
Harini

Hello Harini,
Wow, you are correct there is no aboutToDelete, I guess manipulating the row before deletetion is not that common for our TopLink clients as this is the first request I have heard for it. I will add this request to our enhancement database. You might want to follow it up with support if it is a priority for you.
As a workaround you could use the preDelete event to change the stored procedure call with the user name argument (i.e. build the procedure call dynamically in preDelete and set it into the query. The query will have been cloned at this point so there should be no concurrency issues. Make sure when doing this that you do not set the deleteQuery in the descriptor query manager as this will override the original query if set.
Example:
descriptor.getEventManager().addListener(new DescriptorEventAdapter() {
public void preDelete(DescriptorEvent event) {
StoredProcedureCall call = new StoredProcedureCall();
call.setProcedureName("Delete_proc");
call.addNamedArgument("P_ID", "ID");
call.addNamedArgumentValue("USER", "scott");
call.addNamedArgumentValue("TIME", new java.util.Date());
event.getQuery().setCall(call);
});

Can Edge Reflow handle type on top of background image within a box?

What I mean is, from code point of view, it's not <img src="">, but <style="background: url()">, then put type on top of the background image. Can Edge Reflow handle that? Really appreciate your help.

Quicktime-no sound & Broadcaster Error - Can't Open Handler (-2004)

Greetings - I made the following post in the Tiger forum and after 3 days have received no response. Hopefully I'll have better luck here. Thanks in advance.
10.4.7
MacbookPro Intel Core Duo
Suddenly some problems.
My Fireworks 8 will no longer open. I get a Macromedia error pop-up stating "A problem was detected with your application. Please reinstall software to correct the problem."
So I reinstall.
Same problem! Reinstallation does not fix.
Also, I now have no sound with Quicktime. All other system sounds are fine, DVD player, sound applications like Peak. But Quicktime is silent.
Lastly - my Quicktime Broadcaster is no longer working.
Video is no longer appearing in the source preview. (although I can confirm that the camera is working when I click on options for "built in iSight." I DO see video in the "Video Adjustments" window.
Futhermore, if I click on "broadcast" I get this error "Broadcaster Error - Can't Open Handler (-2004)
Argghhh.
Any suggestions for me?
Thanks!

I doubt it is corrupt you could try to delete it but that will probably cause a problem with QT. What is the turn of events that took you to the registry?
This is a permissions issue. What account originally installed QT? Are you an administrator account? You need to take Full Control or Ownership of the item in the registry or QT with a administrator account. Whatever account you're using, now, either is not an administrator account or it is being denied permissions. At worse I would think you might have to create another administrator account to take ownership and full control. There are at least 2 on the computer now.

Can my system handle DVCProHD

I am quoting on an new project, it might be shot on DVCProHD and they would like to finish in HD, the end result being a Blueray disc. I am hoping to use DVCProHD codec throughout the process.
My main question is: Can my system handle this format?
CPU: Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5
2 GB RDDR SDRAM
Media Drives: SATA RAID (drives striped in pairs)
I/O: AJA KONA LS
I am hoping I don't need to upgrade to do this job, but I have not used DVCProHD with out down converting to SD. I have been using uncompressed SD 10 bit with out any problem.

EVERYTHING is fine, but the I/O LS. That is a standard def card. If you want to view HD externally then you need an HD card and HD monitor.
But the system specs are fine for DVCPRO HD. The requirements for that format aren't too bad.

Can i use Handle C with the LABVIEW FPGA module?

Hi,
Can i use Handle C with the LABVIEW FPGA module? I am working with CompactRIO right now so, i want to know weather i can use Handle C with CompactRIO.Can i access FPGA in compactRIO independant of LABVIEW means can i program it without using LABVIEW?
regards,
Vishnu.

Hi Vishnu,
Although we don't support Handel-C directly, it is possible to design your algorithms using 3rd party tools or system integrators and consume them from a top-level LabVIEW VI. The webcast at http://zone.ni.com/wv/app/doc/p/id/wv-268 shows an example of how you can use IP from C-based tools provided by Celoxica in the LabVIEW FPGA environment.

Can a servlet handle other than HTTP request..?

I was asked this question in a interview. Can anyone clear me this.
Can a servlet handle other than HTTP request..?
If yes, please give me a working example.

Can anyone guide me to achieve this.?
Note: If anyone worked with servlet responding ftp request, please send me the code.
Yes, a servlet can handle requests in other protocols
like FTP.
To achieve this, your Servlet ought to inherit from
javax.servlet.GenericServlet or implement the
javax.servlet.Servlet interface. To code the Servlet,
you should have a working knowledge of ftp protocol.
When your servlet extends
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet, it can process http
requests only.

How much RAM can my computer handle?

I have a iMac that was manufactured mid 2011 21.5 inch display. The specs say it can only handle 16GB of RAM but here's the response I got from the RAM manufacturer:
"Whist your official manufacturer specification recommends 16GB maximum capacity, we can confirm that your iMac can support up to 32GB because this has been rigorously tested in this system and is guaranteed compatible.
But I can set up a refund for you, if you would still like to purchase other memory modules."
Here is my response:
"Can you guarantee in writing that 32GB of RAM will work for my machine and not hurt it? If it breaks because of too much RAM do you replace the computer?"
Please advise 16GB or 32GB. By the way, I gave the manufacturer the serial number of my iMac so they shouldn't gotten this wrong.

Get your hands on the ever-useful app, Mactracker. It lists all the specs for one's Mac including the latest capacity for RAM.

How much hard drive RPM can this iMac handle?

Hello!
In my office there's an *iMac Indigo G3 @ 400Mhz* (serial number RN03820ZJV8) and I need to replace its hard drive with a new one with more capacity.
Am being offered hard drives with different RPMs (5,400, 7,600, etc.) but I need to know how much can this IMac model handle, I don't want to over-heat it.
However, I couldn't find that specific data on apple's web site...
So as an alternative way of knowing this I thought that it would be a good idea to know the RPM of the current hard drive as it has worked well for several years:
"*Fujitsu MPG3204AH E:*", capacity of 19.09GB (serial number: VL00T1A09W09).
But I haven't been able to find that info either!
Anyone out there who can answer:
1.- What's the maximum amount of RPM this specific iMac model can handle without overheating?
And/or:
2.- What's the RPM for that specific hard drive?
Best!
Danny

Several years ago, there were concerns about the faster 7,200 RPM drives causing heat issues in the convection-cooled, slot-loading iMacs. In actuality, the hard drives manufactured today run more smoothly, cooler, and quieter than the first generation of 7,200 RPM drives. You won't have any problems installing a 7,200 RPM drive. The onboard IDE controller can only recognize a maximum formatted drive capacity of 128 GBs, so a 120 GB drive is ideal, but hard to find now. A 160 GB drive is usually the smallest drive stocked by many retailers today, but it would only be recognized as 128 GBs after formatting. As for the Fujitsu MPG3204AH-E drive, the "AH" in the model number indicates a 7,200 RPM drive, whereas earlier drives with "AT" in the model number were 5,400 RPM drives.

Can my Macbook handle 1080p?

Hello All,
I am running a MacBook 13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008 with the following:
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 6 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)
I recently purchased a new Sony HD camcorder that can shoot 1080p video. The first uploads I've done to my MB seem to have slow playback and seem rather pixelated. If I watch the video on the camcorder itself, it is fantastic. I'm wondering if perhaps my MB is old enough that it can't handle the 1080p HD video and if I should use this to justify a new purchase. Am I at the bare minimum requirements for the 1080p.
I also use FCP and would like to make some nice video compilations, but if the videos will not playback appropriately that is a concern for me as well.
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem as the original poster...it's rather annoying. It happens in Firefox 5.0.1, the latest version of Google Chrome, AND Safari.
At 360p and 240p, the video runs just fine but as soon as I bump it up to 480p, 720p, or 1080p, it becomes really choppy and the video stutters. The audio remains fine however.
For example, the music video for the Pet Shop Boy's "West End Girls" song has this effect.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3j2NYZ8FKs
However some other videos do not have this jitter effect and run perfectly fine such as the "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 Trailer" or even the Pet Shop Boy's music video for "Love etc."

Can my computer handle FCE 4?

I got my powerbook in '03 to edit videos and its worked just fine for what I've needed. I recently updated my system to 10.4.11 and have a 320 GB external HD to handle all the footage I need. But I'm getting to that point where I'd LOVE to dive into FCE but don't know if my computer can handle it. Can someone advise? (see specs below) I'm worried since one of the FCE 4 requirements included 1.25 GHz. If my computer can't handle the software, what upgrades could I make or is my machine just getting too old to keep up?

It doesn't sound like your Mac will handle it. FCE 3.0 or 3.5 should. I recommend FCE 3.5. You should be able to find it for sale on eBay and elsewhere.

Can my computer handle editing DVCPRO 1080?

Hi. Im currently editing a feature length film. In the editing room, im currently set up with a Mac Pro running 2 2.66 Ghz Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors, with 2gb or ram, and a Aja Kona Card ran to an HD monitor.
I'd like to take my work home with me. I have 3TBs of footage spread across two external 5 bay enclosures. My set up at home is out of date. I have a 1.5 ghz Powerbook G4, and a Dual 1 ghz G4 tower.
I looked into getting a sata card for my powerbook, but im pretty sure it can't handle it. Is there anything i can do, or should just not take the work home?
Thanks guys for any input.

there is 2gigs of ram in my powerbook G4. there is also 2 gigs of ram in my Dual 1ghz G4 PowerPC.
