I started having problems when I update to Mac OS 10.4.6

I just update to 10.4.6 on my iMac & G5 Computers. In The G5 computer, I have to hold the power button down to get it to turn off.
The iMac (15 Flat Panel) doesn't recognize the external firewire Hard Drives. Even in System Profiler, doesn't said anything about FireWire Bus. (Before the update everything was working well). I'm thinking in go back to my old system, but I need this new update in order to install new sofwares I need to do my job (Final Cut Pro....)
Any suggestions to solve this problem?
Thanks.
IMac 800 MHz 15' Flat Panel Mac OS X (10.4.6) G5 1GB

For the iMac;
Thought you could use this info about getting FireWire to work!
First, you should always Repair Permissions in Disk Utility before and after any update; I would do that now. If you installed your update with FireWire plugged in, your Mac may not recognize it anymore.
Try resetting your FireWire ports by disconnecting all FW devices, shut down your Mac and unplug it from AC power (wall socket) for 30 minutes. plug it back in and try FW.
If that did'nt work, download the combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try. Yours is the 10.4.6 Combo update. Others reading, download the Combo that applies to your system. If you have an Intel iMac use this Combo link.
If that still did'nt get it Zap the PRAM. While restarting Mac hold down the following key combo Command-Option-P-R. Keep holding those keys down till you hear the second start-up chime, then release.
For those of you with Macs that are not PowerBooks or iBooks, a bad internal battery can cause FireWire to not be recognized, so make sure it's good!
Good Luck!
Cheers!

Started having problems when OS X 10.4.11 installed

I am truly hoping someone has had a similar problem and has the answer to what I am experiencing following updating my OS to 10.4.11. The screen goes completely black after start-up (kind of like it goes to sleep and won't totally wake). At first it seemed to have something to do with "mail" software but I'm not sure. I ran a check on the hardware but everything passed. I also booted from disk but same problem occurred. Any suggestions?

Hello BDAqua,
I tried SafeBoot and I did hear the bong on start-up but never got a screen-it stayed totally black. I've been restarting and restarting until finally I get the white screen with the gray apple on start-up. I've noticed that when its going to go black right after start-up the white screen never materializes and I just get a blue loading bar that doesn't get completely finished before the screen loads then boom, it goes black. I tried ctrlapple+RP and that worked briefly but within a few days I was right back to getting the black screen. Also, today I repaired permissions to my HD. I haven't restarted yet because I wanted to respond here first in case I can't get back up. More info:
Model: PowerBook 5,6
Processor Speed: 1.67 GHz Power PC G4
Hard Drive Size: 74.4g with 24.4 available
RAM: Original 512 MB DDR SDRAM(type) PC 2700U25330(speed)
Internal Optical Drive: MATSHITA DVD-R UJ 835E Reads and burns both DVD and CD
Version of OS X Installed at Manufacture: Panther- 10.3.9 (Pretty sure of this exact version but am absolutely sure of the Panther 10.3 part)
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you all. Thanks so much! T.

Trying to print from my iMac to a Cannon MG5320 will not print. Started having problem when new Wifi router??? was installed Cisco. Keep getting A Communication Error

Problems printing form iMac to Cannon MG 5320. Just had new Cisco router installed and problem started. Keep getting communication error

To address this problem, I suggest that you do a complete reinstall and setup of the printer as if it were brand new. It is preferable to do this from the original CDs that came with the printer. I think the printer has to set up again to connect to the new router.
The Canon web site has for this printer a "mini-master setup" file you can download that has the same setup program that came on the CDs.

I am having problems when i have minimized windows and try to open a new window it will open all minimized windows along with the new window. It just changed when mozzilla updated. It did not do this before the update. Before the update if i had minimized windows they would stay minimized when i opened a new window. Please help ,I would guess it is just a setting somewhere but i cannot figure out where the setting is. Thanks jason

What does that mean? What is your technical support question?

I got my iPhone 5 s almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

I got my iPhone 5 almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

First steps in troubleshooting:
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

I copied my PS CS5 Plug Ins folder into my CS6 one & it started having problems opening & errors...

I copied my PS CS5 Plug Ins folder into my CS6 one & it started having problems opening & errors... would someone be able to tell me what the basic/original ones should be in PS CS^6 Plug In folder please?

That would be any other plug-ins you've installed after Photoshop. Out of the box that folder is completely empty with Photoshop CS6.
To be completely accurate, what you did wrong was that you copied plug-ins that were supplied by Adobe with the earlier version of Photoshop. Those plug-ins logically conflict with the current ones Adobe supplies with Photoshop, which are now provided in another place.
They've changed the folder structure, so no longer are any plug-ins supplied by Adobe put in that folder. Hopefully for a future version update you can copy those you have in Photoshop CS6 without getting yourself into the same trouble.

I have a MBP retina and I am having problem when my bluetooth and wifi are both active. My wifi is totally unusable when I am connected to via bluetooth speaker.

I have a MBP retina and I am having problem when my bluetooth and wifi are both active. My wifi is totally unusable when I am connected to via bluetooth speaker.

Chances are you mis-typed a character in the Wifi password and the devices saved that information. Now whenever you try to connect the device refers to the wrong password and the Jetpack does not accept your connection. Tell your devices to forget the wireless connection and start over.
Once you enter the proper WiFi credentials the Jetpack will allow you to connect.

Is anyone having problems downlaoding new update for window

Is anyone having problems downlaoding new update for window

You ought to be very pleased with that MacBook. 16 GB memory and a 512 GB SSD is a very robust configuration that should serve you well for many years.
Mavericks runs extremely well on a MacBook Pro with a quarter that amount of memory.
Since Mavericks is free it doesn't really matter if it or Mountain Lion is installed when you buy it. You really should purchase Macs from the Apple Store since they won't be any cheaper anywhere else, and that is the only way to buy one with absolute assurance it has not been misused or improperly stored.
You can order a Mac configured with custom options on a Sunday evening and it can be on your desk that Wednesday morning. Shipping is free.
I have no idea why anyone would by a Mac from anyone other than Apple, but they do. Complaints from those who buy Macs from "big box" resellers appear on this site in disproportionate numbers, for reasons that are not clear.

Hey. I have a problem. I updated my mac os x to 10:8 for I can not start Acrobat Pro, which I bought six months ago.
Proglamet says that the computer does not support Power PC. Help
When I try to start it says (program "Acrobat 6.0.2 Professional.app" can not open because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.)
Please help

The version of Acrobat you have is a PowerPC application and will not run on Mountain Lion. You will need to upgrade/purchase an Intel version of Acrobat Pro, probably Version 9.
It might have been worth checking to see if the apps you run are supported on ML before upgrading. If you backed up your system before the upgrade you could always revert to your previous level.

Hi I am having problems downloading and updating apps on my iPad and iPhone. The message cycles between waiting and loading then I get an error message saying unable to download app. Eventually,after many attempts it works.

Hi Guys - for a few days I have been having problems downloading and updating apps on my iPad and iPhone. The message cycles between waiting and downloading then eventually says unable to download app. Sometimes after many attempts it wil eventually work. I tested it on an old iPhone 3G and got the same problem so it is not an iOS 5 issue. My WI-FI connection is working fine. I was wondering if this is an App Store problem? Anyone else in the UK having this problem?

Hi John
iTunes Support wasn't of any use to me.
I have also been having another problem - with BBC iPlayer and other video streaming not working due to insufficient bandwidth, despite my overall download speed being consistently around 50Gb. This is also affecting AppleTV downloads
I am using Virgin Media as my ISP, and was wondering whether you do as well. This might be the common thread.

Hi everyone. I have just started having problems with iCal. Events that I thought I had deleted are appearing on Print Preview and on print outs. Likewise Events which I have not deleted have disappeared from my calenders, but appear in print preview.

Hi everybody. I have recently started having problems with iCal (Version 2.05 (1069). Events that I thought I had deleted appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. Likewise Events that I have not deleted have disappeared from my calender (Month View) but appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. I see that there have been similar problems with Events disappearing especially in Month View. I wondered how print preview seemrd to be picking everything up deleted or not, and what the solution may be?. First time of Posting. I hope I haven't embarassed myself.

Hmmmm.
At the very least there must be a "com.apple.ical.plist"...iCal would not function without it.
Click on the Finder icon in the dock
Click on Go > Home
Double-click Library
Double-click Preferences
Look for a file called "com.apple.ical.plist" and remove it to the trash.
