G4 won't boot under 10.4.11 - G3 won't connect w/G4

Not sure where to start. Use a G3 w/10.3.9 for work. Have a G4 with 10.4.11 for play. They are connected through the DSL modem. Had a crash on G4 while playing a game. Then G4 wouldn't re-boot. Gray screen, spinning wheel, I don't have the install disks for Tiger, since I bought the G4 used and pre-loaded, but I do have access to a copy of Tiger install disks (gray disks) for an iBook. Ran disk utility and got the "invalid sibling link" error, which I have seen before, but never caused a major problem, for what I was using the G4 for. Don't have too much on it but would like to recover some photos before starting over w/new Tiger software. BUT I can't get into the G4, many, many problems, and have tried just about everything I know to do, but that seems to have made it all worse. Tried to install Panther (black disks) on G4, and blow off recovering photos, but it wouldn't do it. Now I just get the blinking ? on start-up w/G4. G3 is functioning but will not let me connect to the G4. Not sure if erasing and installing Tiger on the HD on G4 will work. Do I need some kind of disk repair program to run first? (TechTools, etc.) I'm so confused and my mind is a scrambled as the G4 right now. Thanks for any advice you can offer.

I do have access to a copy of Tiger install disks (gray disks) for an iBook.
Gray Install Discs are Machine specific.
Ran disk utility and got the "invalid sibling link" error, which I have seen before, but never caused a major problem...
It certainly will eventually. And DU is unlikely to fix it.
G3 is functioning but will not let me connect to the G4.
Does the G3 have Firewire?
Do I need some kind of disk repair program to run first?
Yes, your best bet is DiskWarrior, you need the CD though.

Mac Mini won't connect to internet using Apple products (Safari, iTunes, AppStore). Date and time are frozen to the moment CPU is booted up. Firefox works. Cannot update.

For the past few days my Mac Mini has been having issues.
Safari won't connect to internet, but Firefox does.
Time and date are frozen. Only resets when copmuter is re-booted.
Unable to update via App Store and iTunes won't connect either.
Please advise.

Hi again,
Let me ask for some better help for you that is familiar with this problem (if in fact it is a similar problem with the IP address and your ISP.
The other topic concerning this can be found at:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2725608
It is a somewhat lengthy thread but may just apply to your situation.
Anyways I will see if I can call on some better help for you. Hang in there. Best to arm yourself with enough info before contacting Comcast so they might know what you are dealing with fully.
littleshouders
edit: I have posted for some extra help for you that may have a better idea of what's going on if it is your ISP and their modem and how it handles the IP address causing Safari and iTunes not to connect. Hang in there it may take awhile but I'm sure someone will pop in to help.

Solaris 10 Update 10 (8/11) panics on boot under virtualbox and vmware

I am trying to install S10 U10 in a VM and have downloaded the DVD ISO image. I verified the MD5 checksum then tried to boot the installation from the DVD image but it panics on boot under both Virtualbox (latest version) and VMware workstation (latest version). How can I get this working?
Thanks
Andrew.
Edited by: 884653 on 19-Sep-2011 13:18

I had no problems installing Solaris 10 U9 x86 from an ISO download. The ISO download of Solaris 10 U10 x86 I got recently is another matter. When I try to install U10 with VMware Player or Virtualbox on a Dell PC with Windows 7 the install process hangs. I can't tell if this behavior is a panic or not, but it is a problem. On both VMware Player and Virtualbox the install process gets to the following screen and never does anything else:
SunOS Release 5.10 Version Generic_147441-01 64-bit

Any ideas? Thanks.

Will latest mac mini boot under Tiger?

I have an older G4 tower set up for use as a graphic arts workstation. As far as the software set-up (both OS (Tiger) and applications (CS2)) goes, it's perfect for what I use it for and I've worked out all the bugs. The computer itself it's getting a little long in the tooth, however, and I'd like to replace that. I'm looking at the latest Mac mini. The ideal solution would be to simply clone the internal start-up drive to an external drive, then restore the clone onto the mini. The latest Mac mini comes (obviously) with Snow Leopard. Does anyone know if it requires Snow Leopard or whether it's possible to boot it with Tiger ?

Not sure how to "quote" into grey boxes but as far as this goes...
Place a > before the text you want to quote.
My MacBook Pro has an Intel processor and runs Tiger.
That Tiger OS is designed for Intel Macs. Tiger installs are PowerPC only unless created from the disks which shipped with an Intel Mac, in which case it will only install onto that specific Mac model, or the Mac OS X Server 10.4 Universal Binary.
If I reformat Mac mini's hard drive it wouldn't have any OS installed. I have unkeyed Tiger disks, so should then be able to install Tiger on reformatted mini drive, correct?
No.
is there anything in the hardware architecture of the latest Mac mini which will prevent it from booting under Tiger?
Yes. Pretty much the entire architecture prevents it. Give up.

Boot Camp: Windows won't connect to AirPort router

I got the new AirPort router from Apple in March and since then it's been working perfectly with my Macs as well as on Windows using Boot Camp.
A few days ago, I switched my AirPort setting to be Wireless-N ONLY so I could see some speed improvement on my Mac. The next time I used Windows, it would not connect to the network, so I then went back to my AirPort settings and switched it back to 802.11 G and N compatible. But both my Windows computers still won't connect.
Please help me set up the correct options. Thanks.

I just saw your post - I posted the same thing a little after you did. Did you figure out the problem? I haven't gotten any answers yet to my post.

Desktop app store won't connect under proxy

My company recently instituted a corporate proxy and a few apps have been having difficulty with it. The app store is one of these. It just won't connect to anything - even the Help option just sits there "downloading latest help".
I have set up in my Network preference pane to connect HTTP and HTTPS to our proxy on port 80. Is there another port I need to set up here so the app store can connect as well?

Guess what... 10.6.8 update fixes this!
I still can't get MobileMe to connect though.

Why my Mac won't connect automaticly to Wifi from boot or when waking from sleep?

Hi!
I have 2TB Time Capsule with bridged WiFi.
When I reboot or wake up my MBP from sleeping it won't connect automaticly to my Home WiFi network. I allways need to connect by hand. This problem has been in the Os X Lion and Os X Mountain Lion.
Any other WiFi networks don't have this problem, only with Time Capsule.
Time Capsule has 7.6.1 software and also older software's had this exact same problem
My MBP is:
2.3GHz Intel Core i5
8GB 1333 Mhz DDR3
And the WiFi chip is:
Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0xD6)
Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.106.98.81.20)
Does anybody else run in to this kind of problem?
Oh and everything else with WiFi is working normally (Phones, iPad's etc even PC's =) )

I was having this same issue with a brand new 2012 MacBook Air after updating to Mountain Lion and using an AirPort Extreme. Most times waking from sleep would result in a lockup as the system would continously try to find my network (the WiFi menu would just keep cycling). After going to 10.8.1 it still continued so I started looking at other possibilities. I noticed that the security setting on my AirPort Extreme (current generation) was set to WPA/WPA2. I changed it to WPA2 and the problem so far (2 days in a row) has gone away.

Apple Wireless Keyboard won't connect under Windows

Hi there,
I've installed XP on my MacBook Pro via BootCamp, but my wireless keyboard & mouse won't connect. XP asks about pairing verification number, and I didn't found the number. Where can I find the number?
Thanks

Hello:
It sounds like a Microsoft issue. Why not see if the great cloud in the sky in Washington has an answer - perhaps on their web site. The reason lies somewhere in the Windows system, I suspect.
Also, are there drivers that need to be installed in Windows (as you know, on a Mac they are plug and play)?
Additionally, here are a bunch of FAQ's that may be helpful:

Won't connect to the internet

my imac won't connect to the internet/server, however, at&t verified that my service is fine. how can i connect?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

IPad 3 IOS6.0.1 update, WiFi won't connect

I have an iPad 3 and my WiFi was working well with IOS6, until the 6.0.1 update.
Now under the settings it says it is connected to my WiFi (puts the network name in) but it actually isn't. When you look it is still attempting to connect. If you try to open up Safari or an App it says that you are not connected to the Internet. I forgot the network added it again still cannot connect. 6.0.1 bricked my WiFi.
Is there a way to restore back to IOS6? Or does anyone know a fix? I reset the network settings, probably going to do a hard reset soon.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

HP 6520 wifi won't connect

Just took a 6520 out of the box, trying to set it up/print to it from a windows 8.1 computer, after returning a 4620 printer that had the same problem.
Ran the setup software. Setup software can't even manage to figure out what wireless network the computer it's running on is connected to - useless.
Printer can find the wireless network, and when using the wrong password, won't connect, citing wrong password.
When I use the right password, it just fails to connect.
I've rebooted my router, rebooted my computer, rebooted the printer. No good. Print doctor software is useless as it can't even find the printer.
I've turned off MAC filtering on my router, and disabled Windows Firewall. Nothing.
I have an epson printer that has no problem connecting, and every other wifi capable device I own can connect to my wifi with no problem, from both Android and apple phones to tablets to four different PCs and laptops to my freaking nest thermostat. Why can't my printer manage to just work over wifi?
I do not have a USB cable for the printer (it wasn't sold with one), btw, so trying that is out (besides, I bought this as a wireless printer, not a wired printer).
Help please.

Hi MattMihaly,
Welcome to the HP forums!
I see you have a Photosmart 6520 and a Windows 8.1 computer that don't seem to want to talk to one another. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will certainly do my best to help!
I would suggest you start by following the steps for Windows 8 in this 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Message Displays on the Computer During a Wireless Network Installati... document (make sure to follow the Option two: Connect with the Wireless Setup Wizard under Step five). If that doesn't resolve it, please try the steps under Your printer has never worked over the network in the HP Wireless printing center.
I realize you may have tried some of these steps, perhaps all of them, before but often trying them in a specific order is what makes the difference
Let me know how this goes for you!

My iphone 4 won't connect to my mac. It says that I need to install the lastest version of itune (11.1) but when I try to update itunes it says that I have the current version 10.6.3. Can someone please help!

Hi,
My iphone 4 won't connect to my mac book, it says that I need to install to latest version of itunes 11.1. When I go to itunes and try to update, it says that I have the latest version (10.6.3). Can someone please help me!
thanks

You are probably running OS 10.4 or 10.5 on a PPC Mac. No version of iTunes higher than 10.6.3 is available for these older Macs. I have the same problem, and while I can still use the PPC to sync my iPod, it can't be used to sync an iPhone 4 or higher. The only solution, as I discovered after upgrading to the iPhone 4, is to buy a newer Mac. I was able to get a 2006 MacBook running Lion for under $300, and that has been a lifesaver.

Apple TV won't connect to iTunes and does not show up in my devices list in iTunes.

My older model Apple TV won't connect to iTunes and does not show up in my devices list in iTunes. I have two Apple TVs in my house and I can't imagine that this is part of the problem but I mention it just in case. My other Apple TV is brand new and it connects to iTunes just fine. I've tried most of the "fixes" and one says to Force Sync but I can't since Apple TV isn't in my device list. Another "Fix" said to Navigate the Apple TV to Settings --> Downloads --> Check for Downloads, but when I tried that there was no option for "Downloads" under the Settings Heading. I'm at a loss. Please help. Could this be an issue with too many authorized devices? We have three iPads, two iPhones, laptop, desktop, two Apple TVs, and an iPod and most of them are syncing the same music playlists and whatnot... have I run out of rope?

hi, just posting to everyone in general..its not you, or your apple tv, it is itunes.
ok, ive had the exact same issues for weeks now, as with everyone i had done the lastest upgrade and no longer could see/sync my gen 1 appleTV.........so, i removed the upgrade and went back to the prev version, even though it was showing in my prefs under appleTV, it still wouldnt show in the side panel under devices....i gave up.
This week i was determined to get it to work! So i started from scratch, totally removed itunes and started back with version 9 and upgrade each version from there, i had no luck, ic clicked find appleTvs but it wouldnt....however i just d/l version 9.2.0.61 and BINGO!. No sooner has it opened and up popped the side panel devices list, showing my appleTV..all ready to be synced etc. I immediately panicked of course haha..and set it all up and its working perfectly.
...Only catch now is that this older version will not be compatiable with my iphone, which i do keep music on...seems we cant win. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr this will be the same for all the latest apple products.
Apple needs to allow more than one version of itunes per pc OR perhaps they could get their act together and include all of the millions of APPLETV GEN1 owners in there latest upgrading..after all, THEY made the product and THEY do sell the movies/tv shows, perhaps they could stop making all the upgrade all about the music only!......on which i might add why not incluse movies/tv shows in icloud! yet another upgrade that should be included in the APPLETV GERNERATION 1!..yes we do still exist!
at the very least, im happy ive managed to get all my movies etc onto the apple tv, where ill keep them and from now on d/l directly onto my apple tv. I usually d/l to my laptop and then send them to the appletv but while trying to get all this sorted i did a test, i d/l a movie using my appletv hoping it would somehow let itunes "find" it and getting it to show up in my device list, but it didnt work, however it did sync/send the movie to itunes.. so at least i could save a back up copy.
good luck trying, as i said this has been weeks and this is the only solution ive found so far....and going through these forums its obviouse its itunes thats the issue, NOT Our apple tvs.

Wifi on Ipad and Iphone won't connect

I have an iphone 4s and an ipad mini, both updated to iOS 7 and they both will not connect to wifi. They will connect when I am at home or at Starbucks etc., but not while I am at school. My phone did connect at school last year, but has not been able to connect this year. They will both say that I am connected, but when I go to use the internet it says I am not, even though it shows I am. The tech guys at my school have not been able to figure it out. Any ideas?

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
