Cannot boot from CD, I get a black screen with white info at the top. Scary. Trying my laptop next.

I have a 2009 macbook air with 10.6.8 and over 20gb of memory left and also 2mb, aka all of the requirements for mavericks, i've tried every solution and yet mavericks will still not download? Somebody please help me.

Seriously bugging me and stressing me out - please help me out.

Check if your machine can accept it
https://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you have TimeMachine, there is a hidden TM local file taking up the remaining space on the drive.
It's not counted on the size because it self scales as more of your user data is written to the drive.
Backup all your users files off the machine to a external storage drive (not TimeMachine as it will drastically change once Mavericks is installed) and phyically unmount/disonnect.
Next Trash > Empty Trash the users files on the boot volume that you copied to the external drive.
Paste this into Terminal to turn off TimeMacine local backups and press enter, enter your admin password and press enter
sudo tmutil disablelocal
(To re-enable it: sudo tmutil enablelocal)
then turn TimeMacine on/off and reboot the machine. Check your drive space now in Applications/Utilities > Activity Monitor.
Try the Mavericks upgrade again, check your machine specs (Apple menu > about this Mac > more info) for a model identifier and consult Apple's site if your machine can accept Mavericks.

Mind you that 10.7-10.9 will NOT run your currently installed PowerPC based software.
Some of your older software may cease to function (Intel processors or not) because of the huge jump in OS X versions.
If your not currently under AppleCare, I would advise against a OS X upgrade as it can have issues with your hardware and the firmware can brick the machine.

Apple sudio display 17-inch-compatability with intel power book

is this diplay compatable with the intel power books (graphics cards etc), if there is a possibility, whats connections need to be made?

Thank you, I took it to the Apple store and the genius guy has seen the issue before, I only had to show him one photo and he was on it. Apparently he has booked it in to get the Motherboard or Logic board as Apple call it replaced under warranty.

*Flash Player for PPC Macs*
Adobe's last release of Flash Player for PPC Macs was in November, 2010 with release 10.1.102.64 Subsequent releases are for Intel based Macs only.
To check your installed version of FlashPlayer - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
Read this whole post before proceeding. You have to follow steps precisely and there is mention of an alternative version of Flashplayer at the end that some have decided to try.
To update you should download:
Flash uninstaller: [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,] Make sure you get the right one.
Flash installer 10.1.102.64 [http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.1.102. 64_and_9.0.289.0_archive.zip] Open the archive to reveal yet more archives and multiple files. Select: flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg
To install:
1) Run Disk Utility and verify your hard drive. If the hard drive reports errors then it will need repairing first (another topic). If it verifies, run Disk Utility's repair permissions.
2) Back up your hard drive, ideally to a bootable clone. A bootable clone will allow you to restore your hard drive to its original state should something go wrong.
3) Quit all applications to ensure nothing is actively using Flash. You can even do the next step while booted to Safe Mode to make sure.
[Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393]
[What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X)|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564]
[Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107394]
4) Run the uninstaller application. Adobe says, "Adobe recommends that you restart your computer before you install a different version of the player."
5) Run the installer application from the .dmg file you got from the second download.
6) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your computer. This is important when installing anything from Adobe.
7) Restart your computer.
Notes:
Adobe installs things all over your computer. Simply dragging a file or two to the trash won't ensure you have uninstalled all old file components.

Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862 - this gets FP to tell web sites you are running a newer version than you really are. This gets around web sites that don't really need a new version but think they know best. If they really do require it then this hack doesn't work.

How do I find a previously passcode to link a wireless keyboard (Model A101urs6) to a Mac Power Book G4 running 10.5.8. The keyboard was linked at one point in the past, but then not used. When I am trying to hook it up now, it requires the passcode.

Call Apple's online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. For Lion you'll get a redemptions code via e-mail and need to DL from the Mac Apple Store (requires SL 10.6.6+).

I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now? so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS. This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight.

This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight unless I want to run out and buy the latest and greatest overpriced apple product.

Are you willing to buy a newer iPod? How about the 4g @ 16gb for $199* usd or the 5g @ 32gb for $299*.

If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person

The new but not-ready-for-prime-time autocomplete method searches for matches that contain the entered text, not just ones that begin with the string. Your options are:
1) type in longer strings that narrow the search
2) use an add-on to search just the beginnings:

My iPad has to be really really close to the router for it to have internet. How can I make it so I can go around the house with it?

My iPad has to be really really close to the router for it to have internet. How can I make it so I can go around the house with it? My iPad has been like this for a couple of months, and it has really irritated me. My friend came over and he had to download iTunes for something on the computer. He needed my iPad, he tried it and it wasn't really near the router.

I'd begin by reviewing the following:
