Ibook G3 700 purchased from Ebay...loaded with 10.4, no disks

I recently purchased an ibook 700 from ebay loaded with Tiger, however no disks were included with the computer...
what are the problems I am going to encounter down the road, not having the install disks available?
I don't know the admin password, and I'm assuming I can't reset it without the disks...do I need the admin password to install new programs?

forgot to mention that I am running mostly audio apps .... voiceover production, voice recording, etc
would like to install Logic Pro 7 on the ibook and would even be satisfied running an older version of Garageband to do one track mono recording....(I have a version of iLife 04' that I purchased a while back)
I would do all of the production on my G4 tower which is up until now has gotten the job done....I thought the ibook would be the perfect mobile/remote recorder with a portable USB audio interface.
do I'm pretty much all set, except a) I'm not sure if Logic Pro 7 is gonna run on the ibook and b) what's the right OS to run on this old trusty dog?

Then AT&T is not going to unlock it for you.
That's the risk you take when you purchase a gray market phone.
If you can return it and get your money back, do so. Next time, purchase a phone from a legitimate source.

This forum is for questions about iTunes U, you will be better off asking in the developer forums : https://devforums.apple.com/index.jspa

You should have bought one with a larger SSD. You can regain some space by disabling the sleepimage file:
To disable safe sleep, run the two following commands in Terminal:
$ sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
$ sudo nvram "use-nvramrc?"=false
When done, restart your computer. Now go delete the file "/private/var/vm/sleepimage" to free up some hard drive space. When you put your computer to sleep it, should happen in under five seconds; my MacBook now goes to sleep in two seconds.
[robg adds: To state the obvious, with safe sleep disabled, a total power loss will wipe out whatever was open on your machine. To enable safe sleep mode again, repeat the above commands, but change hibernatemode 0 on the first line to hibernatemode 3, and =false to =true on the second line. You'll then need to reboot again. Personally, I prefer the safe sleep mode, even with the slower sleep time and hard drive consumption -- even if for no other reason than it's great when changing batteries on a flight.]
You can also delete unneeded files:
Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
1. See Lion/Mountain Lion's Storage Display.
2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. See The Storage Display.
You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

Trying to use music purchased from iTunes store with a home movie

I am making a home movie for family use only in either iMovie or Final Cut Pro, but neither app will allow me to use music purchased from iTunes store. Why not? It's not a licensing issue b/c there is no distribution other than my family at a big birthday party. The music imports but acts as if it has no audio once the file is imported to either program. help!
macbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Put the purchased songs into a playlist. Set iTunes burning options to burn AUDIO CDs. Burn the playlist to an audio CD (you can use a CD-RW if you don't want to waste a blank). After it is done, reimport the tracks off the CD. Now use the reimported versions in iMovie or FCP and they should work fine now.

I can not purchase from app store with my macbook air, I can not purchase from app store with my macbook air

I bought a macbook air from a friend and the account is under his name. I wish to change owner information so that I can purchase from app store
HELP!
thank you for your time
Chris

The old owner needs to go to Apple's website to "edit your Support Profile" to delete ownership registration of your product(s).
You then register your "new" device, also online. Once the old owner has deleted ownership, the serial number is freed for a user (new owner-you) to add it. You should obtain/have an Apple ID first.
On your computer, in the App Store Application, sign-out the old account. Create a new account (or sign in your account - your Apple ID).

How do I keep all my documents in iBooks that were purchased from on line store not at the iTunes Store. (Ver 7 has screwed up iBooks and it no longer works)

I have hundreds of 3rd party purchased lists and legal documents I keep in Ibooks. Since upgrading to version
7 iBooks only opens for a few seconds then closes any open document and kicks me all the way out of iBooks
How do I keep these and reload ibooks ? I am 500 miles from my main PC and need thee forms now.

The iPad is not new. It is almost 2 yrs old. Many of the documents are legal documents, legal journals text books etc that have a 30 day limit on downloads and that time period has expired. Your post suggested closing all applications and forcing a power down. That I have done several times. I have not restored the software as that would require deleting the contents. Not all the files are backed up and the ones that are, reside on my personal laptop that is states away and will be for at least a week and I need the data now.

MacBook purchased from eBay USA. Difficulty in retrieving USERNAME and PASSWORD for my MACBook Pro

Please help me retrieving my MacBook User ID and Password !!!! URGENT !!!

This was discussed at length in other forums (can't be mentioned here) and there were several people (including myself) involved in some serious, different-scenarios testing. The utlimate goal was/is to publish an all-encompassing user tip since the entirely new/different licensing requirements are confusing at best; however, we have been stymied by a lack of definitive Apple policies on the iLife apps (another story).
So, no, there is no documentation from Apple, but the facts are that Command + R will need an Apple ID and will reinstall the current system, so that is only an option for someone who purchased Lion or ML at the app store (such as the current owner/seller). However, Command + Option + R can be used by the seller to get the machine back to its originally installed system (unless it was SL or previous of course). In an emergency, it can also be used by a buyer; however, the preferred method is to start with the original install media and upgrade from there using their own Apple ID.
When I first saw the new SLA, I submitted a bug report to Apple to be more specific with their instructions - that was shortly after Lion was introduced. I never received a reply.

Can I use an unlocked T-Mobile IPhone5s purchased from apple online with a Turkish carrier in Turkey?

Can I use an unlocked T-Mobile IPhone5s with a Turkish carrier in Turkey? I purchased it in Apple Store online.
Do I need to make a transaction with or contact T-Mobile when I use it with my new turkish carrier in Turkey?

Hmmm, I just called Apple, and they claim that the phones are proprietary to the carrier, and TMobile phones can only be used on TMobile (even though GSM and unlocked), and they (Apple) cannot say if they could be used on AT&T, and suspect they could not.
I'm not sure I believe them (as it says on the website that the TMobile phones can accept an international SIM when traveling), but don't think I can take the chance. I wonder if I could get one, try it, and return it if it wouldn't work with AT&T?
It affronts me to spend full price to get a locked phone from AT&T!
Anybody have any more ideas?
Thanks!

In-App purchases from App made with Flash?

Hey everyone!
So basicly I'm working on this game project and I've got a distributor in Germany who requests me to implement an in-App purchase within this game I've developed in Flash CS5.5.
In the developer section at apple's website I can't get information about how to do this with a flash developed app.
Does anyone have an idea? I would be deeply grateful.
Thank you for your time!
Best,
Dan

Damn, that is horrible news. But I was kind of suspecting that it would not be possible to do this through flash.
I just need to make sure, are you 100% sure that it is not possible to do this with a flash developed app?
I'm not sure if this is a propriate thing to ask in this thread but does the same thing go for connecting to "Game Center" from a flash developed app? Is that impossible as well?
Best,
Dan

I need help with motion control. I am programming in Visual Basic. I will need help with what parts I need to purchase from NI, along with help on the code.

I am using a Papst servo motor and I need to know where to start and what to purchase to get this motor to spin. I am using visual basic and in my program I calculate the direction and RPM's needed from the motor. It will spin anywhere from 1 to 10000 RPM's. It seems rather easy, but I have no idea on how to spin the motor at the specific RPM, and stop it with a command stop in the program. Please help.

We really should know a little more about your intended uses for this system, but assuming you want to do relatively simple (or even not so simple!) motion, you'll need a few components...
A motion controller, such as the PCI-7342, can take your VB commands and turn them into the commands needed to "run" the motor. Next you'll need a drive, such as the MID-7342. This includes the servo amplifier that actually powers the motor. It also has connections to "pass through" the encoder signals from the motor back to the motion controller.
The above-named pieces assume one or two axes of motion. You'll also need a cable to connect the two (can't remember the model right now). You can use MAX to configure the motion controller, and there are just a few VB calls you
'll need to make using NI-Motion functions to define the motion and get it going.
Hope this helps!

IBook G3 from eBay.....DVD player???

Hello all, I got my girlfriend a 2003 iBook G3 dual USB from eBay and it's in nice condition and clean installed however it doesn't read dvds nor does it have Apple DVD player. I tried putting the DVD player on but it didn't open. On the ebay site it didn't specifically say DVD player. I have a 2002 iBook and it has a DVD player and CD writer. My understanding is that all these could at least play DVD's, and as far as writing a CD that was just a matter of having a combo drive or super drive. Did Apple make non DVD reading iBooks during this time??? It picks up normal audio CD's.
Thanks for the help guys!
Charles

Yes, some 800 MHz iBooks were CD-ROM only.

Stolen iPhone bought from eBay help!

Hello there
I don’t know if this will sound to you inreresting but i thought i should write to tyoy informing of a case that involves my iphone4
Last year on August i got my iphone4 through ebay from a good rated seller factory sealed and was using it here in Greece without any problem. I paid through paypal by the way
After almost a year a strange thing happened. I thought i should extend my iPhones warranty so i went to the apple website and put my serial number and my apple id so the phone was linked to my account. Late i know but better late than never
At the end of the process i regretted and i stopped the process. After 8 hours or so i received an email from the US from a detective. Yes i know i thought yeah ok this is a spam
This person informed me that the apple product that i have was stolen from the apple factory
Again i thought this was a scam
This person though informed me of the product that i owned and he even provided me with the serial number!!!!i asked him where did he find my email address and he said he got it from apple.
The story continues of course with me trying to resolve the issue with ebay and paypal but without any success
To be honest i was very suprised with this especially when after soo long i now know that i have a stolen product. which from my end is legally purchased from ebay through paypal
We have a forum here in Greece www.applemania.gr me being one of the owners and as you can imagine we follow you and all apple news. This is the reason that i thought i should write to you and inform you of this issue in case you find it interesting
I am not attaching the email of the detective in Colorado but if you wish i can
if anyone has any ideas what my next steps should be please do tel!
Thank you for your time

FYI: You can NOT legally purchase something that was stolen. It's called receiving stolen property in the US and is a criminal offense. Since you bargained in good faith when you purchased it, you would most likely not be charged IF you surrendered the phone to authorities and cooperated with them in helping to identify the seller.
You will need to get documentation from law enforcement to present to e-bay/pay-pal to plead your case for a refund and will most likely need to return the phone to Apple. I would speak to law enforcement in your country and ask them to handle the communication.
This, people, is why it's a bad idea to buy things from e-bay. In the beginning, it was a good source for some things, now it's just a nest of thieves and scam artists. Not all of them, of course, but a significant percentage.
