G3 blue+white --- boot-menu does not work !?!

hi.. I can´t access the boot-menu or boot from cd/dvd using the shortcuts ("c","alt",..)
the mac always tries to boot from harddisk.. can anyone help?
perhaps I need to install an firmware update?
thanks ^^
..sorry for bad english

thanks... but I thought the newest g3 firmware is this one:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58374
..what is the other firmware for? for updating cd/dvd-rom?
yes.. it´s a simple dvd.. but I can´t boot from
(both harddisks are empty)
..I only have MacOS 8.5 to boot from CD (without installing).. but I can´t change the cd/dvd to open the MacOS Tiger dvd.. cause 8.5 needs the cd inserted to work..
and this (the 8.5 without installing) is the only cd that boots automatically at startup..
I know the MacOS Tiger & Tiger Server dvd are still ok, no scratches (I used them last time to install; I set the startvolume to dvd using the pre-installed tiger - I bought it 2nd hand).. but I can´t boot it

  • The "FIND" feature in the Edit menu does not work. I can't find anything on a webpage

    The "FIND" feature in the Edit menu does not work. I cannot search a page. If I am looking for the word "Doctor" and I know it is on the page. All I get after typing the first letter is that the typing box turns red.
    This is not fun.

    Make sure that <b>[] "Match case"</b> on the Find bar (Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check-mark.

  • Pull down menu does not work.

    Hi.
    I'm using Firefox 24.0 under LinuxMint 14.
    Sometimes, pull down menu does not work correctly.
    When I tap File or Edi or View, Menu blinks instantly.
    To resolve, I restart Firefox.
    I disabled "Use hardware acceleration when available".

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Lenovo G580 boot menu is not working when pressing F2 and F12 key

    QuestionI bought a new Lenovo G580 series laptop. After installation of Windows 7 Ultimate x64 bit edition, a problem revealed when Lenovo driver get installed.
    When I installed Intel HD 3000 graphics driver and restarted laptop, the Window was unable to start normally. It displayed an error, so a recovery program started which was recommended. But this program failed to resolve the problem. Later, I tried again to load Windows normally but the blue screen fatal error showed up.
    I attempted to reinstall Windows again, but after restarting window, the boot menu was not showing up after pressing F12 key. F2 key was also not working either.
    I spoke to a Lenovo techincal assistance expert and they suggested me to remove battery and charger and press start key for 30 seconds. 
    My problem still remains the same, and I am unable to access boot menu. 
    The bios version is  62cn34ww. ls there a way I can get this running again?
    AnswerPlease take note that the suggestion below is just a troubleshooting guide. If the steps could not fix the issue, you need to send you machine in for service for further assistance.
    Try removing the hard disk , then press F2 button to enter BIOS
    If you are successful in entering the bios, pleaes load set up defaults
    Save setting by pressing F10 and shut the machine down
    Connect the hard drive back and check if can enter BIOS via F2 and F12 to see boot menu

  • Desktop software links and menu does not work

    Hi,
    i have a blackberry bold 9000 and installed the latest desktop software 4.6 from the blackberry website.
    my device manager says connected. but if i start desktop manager, i don't see the main header menu (there is just nothing, where the text menu should be) and the icons in the main window does not work as links. there is no connection to anything.
    i have uninstalled all blackberry software and installed it new. i have installed several runtime environments manually, including java and c++. but that makes no difference at all.
    what could be the problem? what runtime is necessary and should working correctly for blackberry desktop manager software? do i need some tweaks in internet explorer security settings (active scripting or something like that) ?
    best regards!

  • MY MSN Stocks Drop Down Menu does not work

    Exactly what I said. Drop down menu on My.MSN homepage does not work.

    Pat,
    Your menus look fine on my system, too. It is possible that your user is working on a system with javascript turned off, either on her own computer or, if she is in a company, turned off by the network administrator. Ask her how she is viewing your website...laptop, desktop, smartphone, tablet, etc., to help you pinpoint what your solution will be.
         If her javascript is turned off (not to be turned on...), one strategy around this is to create pages linked to your top level menu items. On those pages, you can make text links (not dropdowns) to the menu items that show on the drop-downs. This could be paired with the next idea, as a sort of belt-and-suspenders solution.
        A less obtrusive way: Add a secondary, substitute text menu that only appears when javascript is turned off by using <noscript> </noscript> tags around the secondary menus.
         Be wary of solutions that require you to tell different users different things.

  • When pressing ALT while booting the boot menu does not appear

    Hi,
    as described above I cannot get into the boot menu of my imac.
    I press ALT as soon as the sound appears but nothing happens. In fact the screen stays white and OS is not booted.
    I have tried that with different devices: USB-stick and CD/DVD. Same result. And I have seen the USB-stick working on my MBP.
    I have absolutely no idea why this happens. I have already pluged out all network and usb devices but to no avail.
    Somebody an idea how to fix this?
    Being a Windows-user most of the time I have no idea how to get this done. Appreciate your suggestions.

    You need to press the Option key when restarting.

  • VI ran from tools menu does not work correctly

    I have a VI that I created in LV7.0 and it works great in 7.1 now I am trying to get it to work in 8.0 and I get a very weird thing going on in 8.0 that I cannot understand. If I run the vi as is it works great it finds all the vi's in memory as it should but when it is run from the tools menu. (I did this by saving it to the projects folder) it does not find all the vi's in memory. So i started doing some debugging and found the code was OK. The I tried the example called memory monitor and when it is run standalone (ie double clicking on it in the example finder) everything runs great but when I save it to the project folder it does not show all the vi's in memory as it should. Does anyone have an explantion to this.
    Joe.
    "NOTHING IS EVER EASY"

    Hello Joe,
    Yes, this is the result of a fairly significant change in LabVIEW 8.  LabVIEW now has more than one "sandbox" so-to-speak such that you can have multiple copies of the same VI (or different VIs with the same name) in memory at the same time.  These separate "sandboxes" are referred to as "Application Instances".  VIs launched from the menus run in a different application instance than user VIs do.  Page 11 in the LabVIEW 8 Upgrade Notes, section header "User VIs", discusses in more detail this issue and what you can do to achieve the old behavior.

  • BPC V7 MS CUSTOM MENU DOES NOT WORK

    Hello all,
    We are in the process of upgrading from BPC V5 to BPC V7 Microsoft and my custom menu no longer works. I am using Windows XP Pro, Office 2007 and BPC 7.0. I have a file called M01Summary2.xlt which contains various graphs that change whenever the settings in the current view are changed. On my EV_DEFAULT worksheet the settings are: Action is HIGHLIGHT, P1 is Reports\Wizard\ProcessMenu\MenuReports\M01Summary2.xlt, P2 is blank, P3 is blank, P4 is DEFAULT. When I test the custom menu, the graphs do not appear on the EV_RESULT worksheet. I can change a cell on M01Summary2.xlt (say add a color to the cell), save the file and the test the custom menu again and the color will appear in EV_RESULT but not the graphs. Can anyone offer any suggestions to fix this problem? Does V7 not recognize graphs? Could it be the fact that I'm using Office 2007? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Renee

    Please check the SAP Note 1404813. It seems a well known behavior and it should have been fixed in 7.5 SP1.
    It seems that this issue only happens when working with Excel 2007. With Excel 2003 all works fine.

  • The mouse right-click (to copy-paste) menu does not work correctly.

    The mouse right-click copy-paste menu often fails in Firefox 4. If I highlight something to copy and then use the mouse to right-click on it, the menu will appear down and to the right. Second, the highlighted command (i.e. copy, paste, etc) will be two steps beneath the mouse pointer. Third, if one chooses "copy" for example, your highlighted text might or might not (usually Not) be copied. This works as expected (perfectly) on this Firefox site, but fails on all other web pages. Note: This is a "company computer" where I am not an administrator.

    I am the admin on my PC, and I am not able to select the copy page after I have highlighted an area. I can if a link select copy link, but in short no more copy paste feature on this new Firefox.

  • File menu does not work in Premiere CS6

    For some reason, I am having issues with using the File menu in premiere CS6. I cannot close the application at all. Keyboard shortcuts though they register will not make the propgram respond either. I know this is an issolated issue on this machine in our group. Any suggestions? I've done permission fixes, tossed out the preference file for premiere. When I do force quit the app a message come up saying Premiere had a critical issue and shutdown. Or something along the lines.

  • One Site from the Menu does not work

    Hello everyone,
    I recently built a simple webpage for my personal online-portfolio with the trial version of Adobe Muse. It involves five sites with some pictures and html-embedded YouTube-videos and a menu, that's it. When I publish the page to business catalyst, one of the pages can't be opened. If I click on the menu-button, it always goes to the "HOME"-section... Could anyone please help me?
    Here is the site: HOME
    -- > As you will see, when you click on the button "BEWEGTBILD", it always shows you the HOME-page. -.-
    Thank you!
    Lorenz

    Hi Lorenz,
    It seems that your first two links both point to "index.html" i.e. the Home Page of the site.
    You would need to fix the link on BEWEGTBILD to make it take you to the correct page.
