IBook G3 Display breaks into four panes

Our granddaughter's G3 iBook dual 12" has started acting strange. Every now and then the display will break into 4 separate identical green panes. This only lasts about one or two seconds then returns to the correct display. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

If it comes to need the shim fix, there are simpler instructions suggested by John Sawyer in the Apple Discussions iBook G3 (Dual USB) Displays Forum:
[Y]ou can often fix this yourself by removing the iBook's bottom housing, and placing a shim of any sort, about 1mm to 1.5mm thick, onto the raised square on the bottom shield. I use a Scotch mounting square--you can get them in hardware stores and many grocery stores. When you reinstall the bottom case, it will press against this shim, which will press against the graphics chip, and may allow the chip to come into better contact with the logic board.

  • Display rows into multiple columns

    I have a table in the following format:
    id value
    a1 0
    a2 0
    a3 0
    a4 0
    b1 0
    b2 0
    b3 0

    I got that error in toad. So now I am testing from command prompt. When you say "command prompt", do you mean SQL*Plus?
    Sorry, I don't know much about Toad. If Toad is returning 0 rows, and the same query is returning 8 rows in SQL*Plus, then I suspect you are not connecting to the same database or the same user. ASre you sure you're running the exact same query in both front ends?
    Here is the data set that I am testing for:
    <pre>
    id1 value
    smple_val_1 0
    smple_val_2 1
    smple_val_3 1
    smple_val_4 2
    smple_other_1 3
    smple_other_2 5
    smple_other_3 8
    smple_other_4 13
    some_other_val1 1
    some_other_val2 0
    some_other_val3 3
    some_other_val4 5
    </pre>
    I am trying to select only 'smple%' in the query, which should display in four columns like:
    <pre>
    id1 val1 id2 val2
    smple_val_1 1 smple_other_1 3
    smple_val_2 0 smple_other_2 5
    smple_val_3 0 smple_other_3 8
    smple_val_4 2 smple_other_4 13
    </pre>Is that really the output you want? Why not
    ID1             VAL1 ID2             VAL2
    smple_val_1        0 smple_other_1      3
    smple_val_2        1 smple_other_2      5
    smple_val_3        1 smple_other_3      8
    smple_val_4        2 smple_other_4     13with the 0's and 1's in the val1 column reversed?
    Here is the ddl I used:
    <pre>
    CREATE TABLE     table_x
    ( id     VARCHAR2 (20)     PRIMARY KEY
    , value     NUMBER
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_val_1', 0);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_val_2', 1);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_val_3', 1);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_val_4', 2);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_other_1', 3);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_other_2', 5);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_other_3', 8);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('smple_other_4', 13);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('some_other_val1', 1);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('some_other_val2', 0);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('some_other_val3', 3);
    INSERT INTO table_x (id, value) VALUES ('some_other_val4', 5);
    </pre>Thanks, that's good.
    Where is the explanation of how you get the results you want from that data? There are a lot of different ways to get the same results from the same data, especially from a small set of sample data. I might provide a query that gets the right results for the wrong reasons, and when you run that query on a different set of data, it won't necessarily work. That's exactly what happened before. I guessed at what you wanted, but I guessed wrong. Guessing is not a very efficient or reliable way to solve problems. Don't make people guess: explain what you want.
    In particular, explain how you can tell, buy looking at a row and column in the original table, to which row and which column of the output it corresponds. I'm pretty sure that the id column of the table always corresponds to either the id1 or idl2 column of the output, and that value always corresponds to either val1 or val2. From this latest set of sample data, it looks like all the rows in table_x that start with 'smple_val' will correspond to the id1 and val1 columns, and that all therows that start with 'smple_other_' will correspond to the id2 and val2 columns. It also looks like each row of the output represents a unique value of the last character of table_x.id.
    If I guessed right this time, then what you want is:
    SELECT       MIN (CASE WHEN id LIKE 'smple\_val\_%'   ESCAPE '\' THEN id    END)     AS id1
    ,       MIN (CASE WHEN id LIKE 'smple\_val\_%'   ESCAPE '\' THEN value END)     AS val1
    ,       MIN (CASE WHEN id LIKE 'smple\_other\_%' ESCAPE '\' THEN id    END)     AS id2
    ,       MIN (CASE WHEN id LIKE 'smple\_other\_%' ESCAPE '\' THEN value END)     AS val2
    FROM       table_x
    GROUP BY  SUBSTR (id, -1)
    ORDER BY  SUBSTR (id, -1)
    ;But this is only a guess. I can't guarrantee that this will work on your real data any better than my last guess did. You'll get better answers faster if you provide an explanation, so that poeple don't have to guess so much.

  • Ksld not breaking into source file

    Hi guys,
    I installed ksld and started debugging my driver using a tip connection... all works fine.. i inserted a breakpoint on one of my functions in the driver.. and in the tip console once i have reached the breakpoint.. i use ::remote to enter remote mode and start the ksld with all those options on the host and it get connected to the ksld agent.. but the host is not able to show the source code of my driver... ie it always breaks into the asm dump of the driver code.. how do i switch to source display.. but at the same time i am able to edit the source file and all.. ie by using edit command.. but no idea why the asm code is dumped while a break point is reached..
    any idea how we can switch to source level code for debugging..
    thanks all

    The simple answer here is that machine specific files do not need to be checked in. This includes .PSS and .CPD files. The .HHP and .XPJ files are not machine specific, they are project specific and therefore must be checked in. The confusion over the HHP file may come down to whether CHM output is being produced. If you are not, you could safely say that this file need not be source controlled. However it doesn't cost anything to include it under source control so why make life more difficult by excluding it.

  • Robohelp 8: Child Project topics not displaying in the topic pane

    Hi All:
    I am working on a Robohelp 8 merged help with four child projects. The child project I added last (which appears as Child 2 on the ToC) displays fine in the ToC pane. However, none of the Child 2 topics display in the Topics pane.
    When I investigated, I found that Child 2 had a few broken links. I fixed them but this has made no difference.
    I have cleared the MergedHelp folder and recompiled a few times, but w/o any change. Child 1, 3 and 4 topics display in the topics pane, but not Child 2 topics.
    Would appreciate any pointers.
    Regards,
    Sophie

    Try deleting the child from the TOC and readding it. If that does not work, can you post an image of what you are seeing. You can do so via the camera toolbar icon.

  • I received a new iBook G4 display but it does not fit in the board?

    I ordered an iBook G4 display for an iBook G4 and set out to install it but the display has a 6-pin inverter cable while the logic board looks like it only receives a 4-pin cable.
    Is there any way around this? Why do the displays have different pins?

    No, I got the right display, Apple designed it wrong.
    I have all the parts to an iBook G4 and they're all stupidly incompatible. I have a G3 screen with a completely different connector. I ordered a A1055 logic board and got a 14" board (for a 12"). Because Apple gives boards the same part number (whether they are 12" or 14").
    I have two G4 logic boards with 4 pin inverter cable ports and 2 displays with 6 pin inverter cable input.
    You can put a 4 pin inverter cable into a 6-pin inverter port. I'm going to cut 2 pins off of the inverter connector with an exactoknife and see if it works because this is ridiculous. I have all these parts and cannot even make 1 working laptop.

    Hi Mario Castro,
                              In selection Screen  initially u have to enter the input value after provides some user command only next screen will be trigger.
    In the next screen PBO event you cant assign selection screen Variable into next screen fields.
    Eg.
    Selection Screen Variable
              s_belnr
               s_bukrs
               s_gjahr
    Next Screen
               t_belnr
               t_bukrs
               t_gjahr
    In PBO  you can code
              t_belnr  = s_belnr
              t_bukrs = s_bukrs
             s_gjahr  =   s_gjahr
    Revert back if any difficulties to do.

  • This item cannot be displayed in the Reading Pane. Open the item to read its contents Outlook 2013

    One of Outlook 2013 of Office Home and Business in Windows 7 Pro 64bit who is connecting to a local Exchange 2010 server is having the following error:
    This item cannot be displayed in the Reading Pane. Open the item to read its contents.
    When launching Outlook, it seems work fine. If user click other folders and click Inbox again. The error comes out. It only happens on Inbox folder.
    I have tried the followings with no luck.
    1. Rebuilt new Outlook profile.
    2. Rebuilt new Windows profile + Outlook profile.
    3. Disabled all add-ins.
    There are 2 ways I can make it work.
    1. I disabled "Cache Mode", then it starts working well. 
    2. Start Outlook with outlook.com /safe.
    So the question is why in Cache mode, Outlook 2013 cannot display the item in reading pane. 
    Any hint will be appreciated.
    CliffZ

    CliffZ,
    One hint: Do an offline virus scan on the affected computer:
    1. Check if your computer has a 32- or a 64-bit system. Right-click on Computer icon, choose Properties. System type reveals the bitness.
    2. Download the appropriate virus scanning version from http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/what-is-windows-defender-offline
    Note: If you're on Windows 8.1: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/what-is-windows-defender-offline-beta
    3. Insert a USB stick with nothing important on. Observe the drive letter (F:, G: etc ...) assigned to it.
    4. Start the downloaded program and follow the instructions. Note: Choose the correct drive letter from 3 above.
    5. Restart your computer so it will boot from the USB stick. Depending on computer brand you can often press F12 to get a boot menu.
    Sometimes you have to enter BIOS to tell the computer to boot from USB if present.
    The quick scan starts. Abort it and select Full Scan.
    Let it run overnight.
    Regards Pete

  • How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done?

    How can I import a movie into iMovie 09 from a hard drive?  The movie will open and play in idvd but breaks into separate files that can't be downloaded when I try to import.  Can it be done? I am trying to create a disc of player highlights for a collegiate coach, and I am using movie files downloaded to my hard drive from a DVD created on a PC. 

    No unfortunately it won't open in quicktime either.  It does the same thing that Imovie does, separates it into two file folders audio and video, and if i select video it opens to reveal 8 files that cannot be selected.  VIDEO_TS.BUP, VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB,VTS_01_0.BUP, VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VB, VTS_01_3.VOB.  All of which cannot be opened or selected.
    Opening it in Idvd and folllowing your suggestion works and I get a format code of NTSC.  Is that the same?  Thank you for your time and response.

  • Can I tell at server-level if a message has been displayed in the Reading Pane in Outlook?

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if there are any traces at server-level (Exchange 2010) if a message has been displayed in the Reading Pane of Outlook 2010? The message would still be marked as Read in the recipient's mailbox.
    Thanks,
    - Alan.

    Hi,
    If you want to know whether an email has been read by recipient, you can either request a read receipt or enable the tracking for read status for messages by using the
    Set-OrganizationConfig –ReadTrackingEnabled:$True command.
    A related blog for your reference.
    Question: Is it possible to check if a message has been read, even when the sender forgot to check the box “Request a Read receipt for this message”?

  • Video uploading from DV camera no longer breaks into scenes

    When I first started using iMovie 4 my video uploaded as it was supposed to, breaking into distinct scenes on the clipboard. For about a year now iMove stopped uploading correctly and began uploading video only in large 9 minute blocks. This is obviously not very convenient when you want to quickly find a scene. I would like to understand why this might have happened and how I might restore the correct function.
    My preferences have "Automatically create new clip at scene break" checked. What could be wrong?
    Frustrated!
    Richard

    Have you actually checked the footage you are importing to see if there is data and time date stamped in the footage? This is to check to see if the date stamp is ok and a problem with iMovie or if there is no date stamp (or one long continuious one across all the footage) in which case iMovie is acting normal and you have an issue with your footage, video camera, etc.

  • Error while changing the Display Attribute into Navigational Attribute

    Hi all.. Gud Mrng.
    I was changed the attribute (product) from display attribute into navigational attribute and while save and activating the info object it is not getting activated and it is throwing the below error message.
    Error Message: u201CThe Info object is being used in several data targetsu201D
    My Questions:
    i)     Do I need to delete the data from all the data targets (where this info object is using)??
    ii)     Do I need to delete data only from the main info object (Zmaterial)? Is this single action enough?
    Please suggest me which action I need to follow & What are the precautions need to take while changing the Display Attribute (product) into Navigational attribute of info object (Zmaterial).
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks & Regards,
    B Venugopal

    Hi Garima
    Only in case of key figures we cannot change it from display to navigational.
    If the info object is a characteristics then in the General tab of the info object if you select 'attribute only' then the iobj would be a display attribute only. If you leave it unmarked then you can use the iobj as a navigational atribute.
    I am sure you know that these settings only mean if a IOBJ can be used as display or navigational.  To  use it as a navigational within another object you will have to change the settings from 'DIS' to 'NAV' for the said info object in the 'Attributes' tab of its parent info object.
    Further if you use the parent info object in any data target / infio provider you will have to further mark the info object as 'navigational' while defining the attrbute of the said data target / info provider. The info object gets displayed in the data target / info provider attribute properties as 'parent IOBJ_info object'
    Cheers
