G4 AGP upgraded and now freezing and needs restart???? HELP
hey guys, so i recently bought a powermac g4 agp "sawtooth" and upgraded it. i put in a 128gig seagate hdd, a 1ghz sonnet encore gt processor, 1 gig ram (2x128 and 2x256), and then filled the pci slots with a radeon 9200 128mb graphics card, a 4 port usb 2.0 card, and a wireless pci card because the g4 could only take the old airport and i wanted 54mbps, finally a pioneer dvd burner to replace the old dvd ram cd rom drive... sooo all these things worked as they were supposed to when i added them, but now with them all in the computer has been freezing and telling me i need to reset it with the little error window, i thought it was leopard so i downgraded back to tiger and same restart problem is occuring.. wondering if its the power supply cannot support all the peripherals? no idea though.. any suggestions???
also a problem ive had ever since i got the machine up and running when i replaced the motherboard... not every time the computer goes to sleep but sometimes it wont wake up from sleep... it sounds like the computer is waking up but there is no image sent to the monitor... any idea whats goin on here??
First try a PMU reset. See Mac PRAM, NVRAM, CUDA/PMU & Battery Tutorial
Is the error window you are getting in multiple languages? If so, you are getting a kernal panic. KPs are generally caused by hardware, frequently RAM & sometimes by USB devices. To start troubleshooting remove the wireless card & USB card & disconnect all external devices except your mouse, kbd & monitor. Post back with the results. Basically, you have made too many changes at one time & it's dificult to know the cause.
May be a solution on one of these links.

I upgraded to iTunes 10.5 on XP and now it and applemobiledeviceservice.exe use 100% CPU. How do I fix this?
When I called Apple Support to ask about the 100% CPU usage, they wanted to charge me because my Ipod was out of warranty. I insisted on talking to someone and finally got to talk to a software engineer for free. He said that he had never heard of the problem in his three years at Apple. Nonetheless, he sounded really interested and suggested that it might be a conflict with anti-virus software. I deleted the antiviruse and that DID NOT HELP AT ALL.
It seems as if Apple could care less. There is no official response. Their primary response is to look at the Forum. At least you find out that the problem isn't your fault, it really is Apple!!!!
So far the best solution is just to delete iTunes and use Mediamonkey to sync your pod.
Apple, please fix this!!!!! -
All of a sudden I keep getting message that my computer must be restarted and it freezes. I restart it and within minutes it happens again. This is a 27 inch iMac with latest system and software. Any ideas of what is wrong and how to fix it?
10.7.5 is not the latest system, 10.8.3 is. However your message sounds like a Kernel Panic, does the message look similar to About "You need to restart your computer" (kernel panic) messages? If so, then if you can get the machine to restart normally then please post the Kernel Panic Report which you can find by following directions in How to log a kernel panic. Please post back with the KP log, and we can take a look. However if the machine continues to not restart then my guess is a hardware failure suck as a hard disk or failed RAM in which case you should take it into your local Apple Store or AASP for repair.

've Password job a year ago to Mobil iPhone 4, and now lost and I can not wipe data from the device or transferred to the new device .. What do I do?
iPhones require a SIM for activation.
Put the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore via iTunes. -

How do I fix my iPod I updated it to iOS 6 and now iTunes and the App Store will not work?, How do I fix my iPod I updated it to iOS 6 and now iTunes and the App Store will not work?
App Store Failure / Updates White Screen
Tap Settings > General > Date and Time > Set Automatically > Off. Set the date one year ahead. Then try to access the App Store.
It may be a connection issue. Try changing your DNS settings to Google’s open DNS by tapping Settings > Wi-Fi >, tap the blue arrow next to your current Wi-Fi network, and then tap the “DNS” field and enter the DNS servers; 8.8.8.8 (Google’s Public DNS, 8.8.4.4 also alternate). -

Keyboard and trackpad freeze and unresponsive
keyboard and trackpad freeze and unresponsive happen occasionally.
This is not a rare case. Please do not want to circumvent nor dodge the problem and issue. Don't pretend that this prolem is minor and not important.
When there is something wrong, please admit that there is something wrong and appologize!!
Be responsible for those people who pay $1,800 dollars, which they earn for working day and night and till late night everyday!!This Apple article may help you with this issue.
Other users have reported that leaving any USB device connected to the MacBook Pro prevents the issue from occurring. A workaround for the moment, but not too onerous.
Best of luck. -
Can anyone help me- I recently had an archive operating reinstall completed at the genius bar (so they didn't have to delete my hard drive), but now my battery says "not charging." It used to hold a 2.5 hour charge, and now nothing. Can anyone help?
Hi, Michelle. Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Have you tried resetting the SMC? The SMC (System Management Controller) has control over the charging function, so resetting it may help. -

updated ipad mini last night with the ios 7.6 and now am unable to restart the pad, we have tried charging it completely and have had no luck in restarting it
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without be charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this. -
I downloaded FF 4 and now 5 and with neither my screen looks nothing like it shows on the FF page. For instance, I do not have the orange FF tab in the upper left corner, I have no option of "pin as app" nor do I have Panorama. Can someone please help me?
To get the orange FF tab, go to View > Toolbars > Menu Bar. This should uncheck the menu bar and give you the orange button.
Panorama is a box made of 4 grey rectangles that should be on the far right, if it isn't after you enable the orange FF tab, right click on anywhere on a tool bar that doesn't have anything on it, and you should get a menu with a list of your tool bars that you can check and uncheck. go down to customize at the very bottom and it will open a window with all your buttons. Find the panorama/tab groups button and drag it onto the tool bar of your choice.
to pin a tab as an app, right click on it; it's an option in the right-click menu.
