G5 starting to have issues with waking up and powering on

Just started happening two nights ago. I hit the keyboard to wake up my G5 and heard a clicking noise. I noticed that the light on the power button would light up as it tried to wake up but it would be unsuccessful. It kept trying to wake up but never could. So I unplugged it. Waited about 30 seconds and plugged it back in and then tried to power up. It took several tries before it finally worked. Last night ran into same problem. It took even longer to finally cut on. I decided not to put it to sleep. Any quick fix? Is it possibly just the piece inside that sits behind the power button?

I would take it to a service provider or an apple store nearby. They can run Service Diagnostics on your machine to see if its a more serious issue, and with PowerMac G5's, it often can be unfortunately .

  • I'm have issues with my email and password not working?  Any help on this matter?  I would really like to start using my new Ipad!!!

    I can sign in on the computer, but not on my ipad???  What's wrong?  Help!

    Thanks for your help.  I had already done the "forget this device" but had forgotten about the part of entering the passcode with the keyboard in order to pair.  I found my instruction sheet after I posted my cry for help and when I did the pairing procedure right, it worked.  It's weird that it decided to unpair itself.  Both my husband and our daughter have the same keyboard and neither of them have had this happen.  At least now I know what to do if it happens in the future.

  • Reminders have issues with push notifications and notification center

    For a while now, I've been having the following issue on my iPhone:  I create a reminder, set it to "remind me on a day", and choose a specific time.  No trouble syncing with iCloud across devices.  I have the reminder notifications set on "Alerts", which should require me to acknowledge the reminder before doing anything else, and I have "Show in Notification Center" enabled.
    When the time comes, I do hear the sound, and the reminder appears on my lock screen.  However, after it goes away in a few seconds (like it should if I do nothing), and then I pick up the phone later to unlock and use it, the reminder alert is no longer there.  Furthermore, the reminder does not appear in my Notification Center.
    Here's an example scenario that will hopefully illustrate this problem:  I set a reminder, then go on about my work day.  Later, I'm in a meeting when the reminder goes off, and I don't immediately check my phone.  10 minutes later when the meeting breaks, I check the phone and see nothing.  Prior to this issue happening, I used to have to acknowledge the reminder alert before doing anything else with the phone.  This is causing me to miss important reminders, and it used to work brilliantly!
    Can anyone help?  I really need this level of harassment from the Reminders app!

    Here is what you can try.  First go to Settings/Notifications and locate the App in question and select. Then be sure Allow Notifications is on and that you have selected either Banner or Alerts for Alert Style. 
    If you have already tried that the best thing to do is to Delete the App for at least 24hrs then reinstall. 
    What this will do is give you the pop up on first log in asking to Allow Push Notifications. Selecting Yes will authenticate device token and store to server and you should be good to go. 
    Don't want to wait 24hrs?  Follow these steps. 
    Delete App
    Power off device
    Turn device back on and go to Settings/General/Date and Time
    Turn off Set Automatically then set time at least 24hrs ahead. 
    Turn device off then back on
    Open App Store and download the App
    Owen the App and sign in and Accept Push Notifications
    Once you get the Pop Up and accept you can now go back to Settings/General/Date and Time and turn Set Automatically back on
    Turn device Off then back On and your good to go.

  • Does anyone have issues with Windows 7 and Acrobat 8 Pro

    I am using Windows 7 and Acrobat 8 Professional. I have 3 installs that work great but 1 that keeps getting a flashing box the size of a popup and then the entire machine freezes up and requires a reboot to work at all. The flashing box is so fast, I cannot read and data on it and as no other programs or software will function at the crash, I am not sure how to troubleshoot. I did a repair, no help. I uninstalled and reinstalled but again, no help......Any tips would be appreciated... Thanks all,

    You should be able to move the problem plugin from the plugin folder of Acrobat to a temporary folder and see how it runs. You also did not indicate if it was a 64 bit version of Win7. If the latter, be sure to update Acrobat (should do that anyway). Several folks have been successful with Win7 X32, but I am not sure about X64. Often the updates will fix most of the problems and are even recommended in XP.

  • Issue with Information broadcasting and pre-cal server in SAP BI

    Hi Experts,
    I have issue with information Broadcasting and Pre-cal server. I have a worrkbook whcih runs from information broadcasting in pre-cal server. Workbook is desinged on single query and workbook contains visual basic code. workbook has a variable which is controlled by Control query in information broadcasting.
    I have 20 employees every month I need to send workbook via e-mail from information broadcasting.  The problem is sometimes all 20 employees will recieve e-mails and sometimes not. I identified there is something wrong in workbook or in pre-cal server.
    because after workbook calculation in pre-cal server is not pushing to SOST so there is something wrong in workbook or in pre-cal server.
    I closely observed pre-cal server front end log. There are few operations performing on workbook in pre-cal server
    like Open workbook, Calculate workbook, Save woorkbook and close workbook. In success case pre-cal sever is performing all the operations but in failure case pre-cal server is missing Close workbook case.
    Below log In pulled from pre-cal server
    Can you please tell what could be the problem.

    Hi Ravikanth,
    Thank you very much for the reply
    I went into RSPRECADMIN and clicked on 'Display Current Queue'.  There we have 3 sections
    1) Queue Overview of Open Precalculations
    I can see this section is always blank after running IB also
    2) Queue Overview of Current Precalculations
    In this section I can see an entry after running IB and duration is changing. but some time workbook in this section will never processed but the duration column is changing may be something is happening at this stage.
    If the entry is not proccessed in this section and IB SM37 job will never end. I manually cancelled the job from SM50.
    Don't why the workbook is taking long time and will never end even though I cancelled the SM37 IB job.
    3) Queue Overview of Proccessed Error-Free Precalculations
    All the error free workbooks which means all pre-cal server completed workbook calculation and sent to SOST.
    I manually ran the workbook for all the 20 employees I can't find any pop-up message (earlier we have pop-up windows appearing because of VB code and when report returns no data and we fixed the pop-up issues)
    Can you please help me further to trace the error.
    Thank you
    Narendra

  • I just started having an issue with my bank website working properly. They have told me it is because of the last safari upgrade. Is this being resolved?

    I just started having an issue with my bank website working properly. They have told me it is because of the last safari upgrade. Is this being resolved?

    You might want to consider "voting with your feet" and taking your business to another bank.  When they tell you the upgrade is the problem, it is really their problem and not yours.  If you don't want to do that, the suggestion that you try another browser is absolutely correct.

  • Does any one else have issues with the lack of properly trained reps ?

    I've been a subscriber to verizon services for just under a year now and have been repeatedly disappointed by the " tech support" and " customer service " departments .   I purchased a new droid xt912 (razr) and it worked great for a month or two then started having issues  with random shutdowns and screen possessions icons randomly appearing and disappearing  ringers changing on their own silent mode turning on and off by itself etc..  my inital thought was that it was a dl'd app that was causing the problems so i reset the phone to out of the box status and went for a week with no downloads or apps beyond the pre installed bloatware and started experiencing the same issues . I contacted cust service who then referred me to  the laughable excuse for tech support  who's only advice was reset it when i advised them I'd already done the reset they seem stunned that I being a lowly customer would know how to do that and advised me that there wasn't much else they could do but file and insurance claim  and send me out a refurbished phone of the exact make and model.  I declined after reading multiple reviews about this phone and the multitude of issues it possess  and inquired about the possibility of allowing me to upgrade early and was told no under no circumstances would i be allowed to upgrade to a different phone.   fast forward a couple of months I find out about the activation of the " edge " program and inquired with my local sales rep about the possibility of ditching this ****** razr for a different device and the ill trained and very ill informed rep told me that i qualified for the program no problem and  I started the process  and after almost an hour of my day later was told that no i couldn't use the program  because i was already an active customer and wouldn't be eligible to even apply for it  until my existing contract was expired  at which point it would be really stupid on my part to renew into what is  basically a lease program when i would be due to  upgrade normally anyhow .  I'm happy with the actual service ( when my device works properly ) but am seriously considering changing to a slower network once my contract is done just because of the inferior  service .  I know it seems like i may be whining just a bit but after several months of incompetent help bad answers and outright lies I'm at a loss as to if i may be the only one that has these issues .  So if any one has had similar issues and has had them resolved i would so like to know

    I have accepted that I am stuck with this device as i do not want a direct product replacement I've been to  many of the global community forums and read about the product wide disaster this phone has been.   My issue is more with the seeming disregard for customer loyalty and respect for the consumer  who for lack of a better way of putting it pays the companies bills and employees salaries .  Denying existing customers access to programs such as the " edge" program and the lack of intelligent answers to simple questions is a gigantic slap in the face to the consumer who despite other options has chosen to lock in with verizon. I guess more to the point it seems the company is more interested in obtaining newer customers then maintaining long term repeat customers . maybe i'm a bit archaic in my line of thought but better the reliable source of income then the gamble and it seems Verizon doesn't share that thought

  • Does any1 hav issues with not being able to send pic from the camera roll. I've already had issues with over exposure that the new update fixed but it left me with this issue.

    Since getting my iPhone 5 I've had camera issues. To start with it was over exposure, the camera was flashing too early and leaving me with dark pictures. After a failed reset I visited the apple store, where they told me it was a known problem and apple were working on a update to fix the issue and it was just a
    waiting game. Once the update was available I did it immediately and the problem seemed to be fixed. I've now noticed that from the camera roll I carnt send a picture to mms. It gives me the option but the screen completely freezes after I've chosen it. The only way to access my camera roll again is to completely close the camera roll down and reopen it. The strange thing it it will let me send it as an email and upload taught to Facebook etc just not as an mms. The other strange thing is if I go to msgs and add a photo I'm successful but if I try to edit the photo I want to send 1st then I get the same issue as the camera roll. I also have issues with the shutter taking ages to open. Is anyone else havin these issue before I go back to the apple shop. A complete reset hasn't worked

    Photo Stream only handles images and your videos are not uploaded or shared with other devices.
    Use iPhoto to import from your device. It can bring in the videos and image files.

    My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason.  If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down.   It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?
