Have also heard that the ipad3 revamped version is around along with the mini pad rumor..too much information - lot's of confusion pls help

Lindsay,
Your iBookG4 is still a pretty awesome Mac. Like already said, it has the power to run Leopard, but it depends if you have an internal DVD drive.
Then I suppose you have to add up the cost of the OS, perhaps another 512MB RAM, iLife 08 and replacements for any favourite apps that you currently use (Leopard breaks a lot of stuff, but Intel breaks even more). Compare it to the cost of a new MacBook, which wil have all of that included and be 3-4x faster too.
It also depends on what you want to achieve with your iBook. My PMG4 still cuts it today, I still use it in preference to my new Mac Pro, It's about the same age as your iBook, and I'll only stop using it when it becomes "painfully" slow. My 1 year old son currently uses the Mac Pro (parts for a Mac Pro are easier to replace than those for a PMG4).
I think your choice is simple, if you can a cheap copy of Tiger, use that, it'll get your iPod Touch up and running. It came in DVD and 4 CD version (by request).
Leopard will work for you too but a lot of the best eye-candy requires quite a meaty graphics card and you may need a RAM upgrade and replacement software - OS9 Classic is not supported in Leopard.

  • Since downloading and installing Lion, have been having trouble with internet connection. Are there settings that I need to adjust?

    Just installed Lion 10.7 ... having problems opening Safari and connectivity.  Have to reset modem, restart computer, etc.  It will be stable for awhile, then next time I log on, have to go through same things.  Is there a setting that I need to adjust?

    Also, I have already done the 10.7.1 update...come to think of it, the problem seems to have started after the update.  Any thoughts?

  • Need help please!  (Question around syncing, getting a new iphone & content

    Hi Folks,
    Hope someone can answer some questions for me.
    1. I attempted to sync my iphone last night and it says it is sync'd to another computer. I tried all of my computers in my home and all of them say this. If I sync it with the computer it says it will erase data. What does it erase? just songs? I'm really worried about my contacts and downloaded (paid for) content.
    2. I ordered a 3GS and am excited to have it. How do I transfer all my content over to the new phone?
    3. I am also wondering about the purchased content on my iphone will I be able to transfer my licenses?
    4. Can I use my iphone for anything after I disconnect the service?
    thanks!

    Yes, you can transfer the SIM if the used phone you purchase is either an AT&T iphone or an unlocked GSM iPhone.
    Yes, you can remove the SIM with the power on.
    Be careful in buying that used iPhone from eBay. If it is Activation Locked you will never be able to use it: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5818

  • Hi, I'm going to buy the new MacBook AIR  full loaded but I have been reading all the discussions here and look like it has so many problems. My other option is the MacBook Retina.

    I am worry about these amount of problem that I just read about MBair. I want to change to apple because most of my genetic software runs very good in these computer. As I said MBP retina is my other option. I am thinking to buy a full loaded MBair. I will appreciate your comments or/and recomendations. Thanks

    Keep in mind what you are reading here is a biased sample, by definition.  People mainly come here because they have a problem.  A user who is not experiencing any problems is very likely to have never eveh heard of these forums.
    Keep in mind that Apple sells millions of laptops every year, and you have no idea how many of them do NOT have the problems you see being discussed here.  And if there were truly huge numbers of dissatisfied customers, how has Apple continued to sell so many computers consistantly for so many years?

  • Download and Upload speeds have been dropping sinc...

    I have recently been having seriously problems with my connection, every day the router appears to reset/crash, sometimes once and sometimes more than several times a day.
    This was the speed I was getting in December, everything was fine.
    Now this is the speed that I am getting.
    I'm not sure how this is happening but I have been able to confirm that it isn't an issue within my household, there is only have one master socket which the router is connected to along with a wireless phone thats connected to it.
    This is what the results that I got from the router.

     Download speedachieved during the test was - 1303 Kbps
     For your connection, the acceptable range of speedsis 800-2000 Kbps.

    The throughput of Best Efforts (BE) classes achieved during the test is - 13.18:22.06:64.83 (SBE : NBE : PBE)
    These figures represent the ratio while sententiously passing Sub BE, Normal BE and Priority BE marked traffic.
    The results of this test will vary depending on the way your ISP has decided to use these traffic classes.
    2. Upstream Test:  -provides background information.

    I'd like to know if a conclusion could be brought to why my connection has been falling since December. Could it of had been a line switch? Because my connection was fine up until the start of this year.

    Hi lionheart1066
    I see Imjolly was giving you a hand with this on another thread.
    We still need to try and get you connected via the test socket to rule out external wiring and possible swap over micro-filters too.
    I note you mentioned you have an I-plate.  Take this off, as it could be faulty, as you will then see the test socket.  If possible connect up via Ethernet and leave for a day or two and see if this stops the drops. 
    Its also important to look out for other sources of interference.  You can see a list of common offenders on this link.
    If you have tried this out and are still having problems drop me in an email please with your BT account and telephone number along with a link back to this thread.
    Just send using the contact us form in my profile under the 'about me' section and mark FAO Craig please.

    I just got a new iphone and we are hooked up to the same apple ID in this family, and his Ipad Have been receiving my texts. How can I fix this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You could simply ensure that only the numbers and addresses you wish to use on each device are checked at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. However this isn’t an ideal solution because the other person can always change these settings from their device and have some fun with you and your contacts.
    You’d be far better getting them to delete your account from their device and have them create one of their own. If you are sharing an ID for some other service such as iTunes, you can continue to do so, you only need change the ID for messages.

  • I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues vision 2013. The adobe pdf converter  plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in

    I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues vision 2013. The adobe pdf converter  plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in to work with Visio 2013?

    For MS Visio (any version) only the appropriate version of Acrobat *PRO* provides PDFMaker for Visio.
    For Visio 2013 specifically you must have Acrobat XI Pro (updated to at least 11.0.1).

    Hello!
    I have a 8GB Ipod touch. I the other ine is worth the difference, because the simple ios 5.0 takes like 3 GB!!!
    Another reason is that new  some apps take 500 MB. I'm going to ask for the 32GB model for Christmas, and I am very disappointed with the amount of files you can have in the 8GB Ipod.
    Hope it helps you!
