How to recharge battery on I book G4

Was recently given an old I Book G4. No idea if it works yet. I took the battery out and I want to charge it. Do I need a special charger and can I get one? This laptop hasn't been used in a long time.

The battery is probably dead and may not charge. You can get a charger at a good price through Amazon. The ones that are listed for the iBook G4 and PowerBook G4 are the correct ones.

  • How often recharge battery

    How often should battery be recharged for best use

    You are advised to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging to 100% then running it completely down) : http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
    Personally I usually run mine down so that it powers off - otherwise I just top it up if I need the extra run-time (e.g. prior to travelling).

  • How to recharge battery?

    Retire Engineer,
    Follow up to thread --- "battery acting up?"
    Can I use the computer while simultaneously charging the battery, or is it better to power off the computer when charging it?

    You can use the computer while charging the battery. It will take longer than it would if the computer was off but otherwise it's not a problem.

    It depends on the uses you give to your computer, because the battery will have capacity for less time if you are using professional apps than using Safari. Theoretically, the MacBook Pro with Retina display battery should have capacity for 7 hours, but as I said, this will decrease depending on the apps

  • T410 - how to recharge backup battery after - ERROR 0251 System CMOS checksum bad

    Hey people
    I would like to know how to recharge the backup battery ( internal one, keeping clock and date etc. )
    i got the
    Error 0251 System CMOS checksum bad— Default configuration used.
    message and after looking at the T400 manual they write what to do:
    Charge the backup battery for more than 8 hours by connecting the ac adapter.
    ok sounds good, but i cant figure out how to properly charge it,
    do i need to put the normal battery pack out and then attach it to the AC adapter, or not?
    Does the laptop need to be running or will it be charged also turned off?
    i would really appreciate if u could help me out and tell me the proper way to recharge!!
    thanks already,
    cheers,
    Andi

    Hello and welcome,
    I didn't know that the backup battery was rechargeable.  I don't think it is.  You might be better off to just replace it.
    The  Hardware Maintenance Manual page 80 shows how to access it.  According to the System Service Parts T410, the FRU number is 02K7078.  They should be easy to find and inexpensive.

  • How can you get audio for  books on the kindle

    how can you get audio for  books on the kindle

    The audio inputs on Macs are line level inputs and not mic inputs.  You need a mic with a built in preamp (battery powered) or more conveniently a USB mic or bluetooth headset.

  • How to calibration battery correctly

    HI,
    May I know how to calibration battery correctly for apple devices ?
    Actually need very month calibration one time for totally device discharged 100%-0% and then charged 0%-100% then using as normal ?
    Or need to discharged 2 times and then fully charged 2 times back ?

    There is no such thing as calibration of a Lithium-Ion battery as there used to be with NiCad batteries.  The only thing that can be calibrated is the charge reporting circuitry.  Repeated discharge to shutdown is actually damaging to the battery, and independent studies show that discharge to 50% and then charge will result in three to four times the battery life vs full discharge.  You are far better off following a frequent recharge procedure than discharging to shutdown as a regular thing.

  • How much is a 2009 Mac Book 5.0 worth?

    Hi,
    How much is a 2009 Mac Book 5.0 worth? It is 2 gb RAM and 120 gb HDD.
    Thanks!!!

    Selling?
    You will command the highest price if you include all its original packaging and documentation, the original Apple power adapter, a new or minimally used genuine Apple battery and the Mac's original System and Applications DVDs. If all of the above is in good condition, ask whatever you want because it is rare to find one like that. Accept an offer no less than $550. You should be able to get $600.
    If you do not have its original discs, and the battery or power adapter is old or an aftermarket replacement then it will be difficult to sell. An offer of $350 would be very good and you will only get that if it is in excellent cosmetic condition.
    I do not know what 5.0 means.

  • Ipod HI-FI on rechargable battery

    Hello all,
    i just get an HI-Fi and i bought 6 D cell ( 2500mha) from energizer. it seems the Ipod Hi fi dry them in less than one hour?
    i guess something is wrong...
    i use Ipod fully charged before plugin it in the HI-FI, may be the backlight during play is energie consuming...but anyway insould be able to listen more than one hour. i listen to low volume too...so anyone running hi-fi on rechargable battery. i 'd like to know how long to they last,
    thanx,

    iPod HiFi does not appear to be designed specifically to operate from rechargeable batteries. Since they would provide 7.2 volts rather than the 9 volts the iPod HiFi expects, it would see them as partly depleted in any case.
    However the main problem is that a D cell rechargeable of 2500mAh is not a proper capacity D cell. It is an AA rechargeable in a D cell casing. For example, an alkaline D cell provides at least 12,000 mAh. This explains your one hour battery life. Try finding some genuine D cell rechargeable with at least 8000 mAh capacity.

    How do I connect my Mac Book Pro to a projector I have the adapter but cant get anything on the screen

    Go to your "screen settings". then chose "find screen" then you vill find the prosjector.
    this will probably fix your problem.
    if this dont works can it be something wrong with your adapter.
    hope it helps

  • How can I connect my Mac Book Pro (year 2008) to the TV set through  HDMI? I've seen a DVI to HDMI iwire but I'm no sure that it is correct. Could anyone help me? Thank you very much.

    How can I connect my Mac Book Pro (year 2008) to the TV set through  HDMI? I've seen a DVI to HDMI iwire but I'm no sure that it is correct. Could anyone help me? Thank you very much.

    I do not know the iWire adapter, but I use an inexpensive ($3) DVI to HDMI adapter from Monoprice, along with a regular HDMI cable:
    http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10419&cs_id=1041902 &p_id=2029&seq=1&format=2
    Be aware that this will only transfer video. You Macbook Pro cannot combine audio through DVI to HDMI. You will need to listen to the audio through the Mac speakers, or attach speakers or a sound system to the Mac earphone jack, or determine if your TV has the ability to accept external sound from the Mac while showing video through HDMI (few can).

  • How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

    How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes  library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
    I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

    thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
    i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs  did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

    How can I share my itunes book with my tablet (non-Apple product)?

    If it's an ibook then you can't - they can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch (there isn't even a Mac or PC reader for them).
