Ibook G3 just died after installing 10.4.1 update

I have been using my ibook g3 with 10.2 for a couple of months now. I suffered from the logic board/ graphics chip problem but managed to fix this myself.
Today i got 10.4 and it installed fine, I had a strange problem where my speedtouch modem wouldnt install but I managed to connect a network up to my pc.
I then tried software update but would not connect over the network so I had to download update 10.4.1 from the apple site.
It installed fine, but when it went to reboot itself it went straight to sleep instead of turning off. It did not respond then and It would not turn off or wake up, not even by holding the power button down.
After a while i took the battery out, left it a bit and then placed it back in. When I went to boot up nothing happend.
I have tried everything i can possibly think of like resetting the power, taking out the battery but it still wont work.
There is a strange thing where if the battery and adapter are pluuged in and you reset the power the adapter led cuts out. I have not noticed this before so am not sure wether this is normal or not.
appologies for the long rambling but if anyone has any ideas or thought's then please let me know.
Cheers John

Hmm, interesting problem. Now, when you say you reset the power did you do what's known as a PMU reset?
From knowledge base article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449#faq6
For iBook (16 VRAM) and later models of iBook, there is no physical reset button.
If the computer is on, turn it off.
Reset the power manager by simultaneously pressing and then releasing Shift-Control-Option-Power on the keyboard. Do not press the fn (Function) key while using this combination of keystrokes.
Wait 5 seconds.
Press the Power button to restart the iBook computer.

You can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

IF RESET DOESN'T WORK, FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTunes and plug (very important)
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...

i just tried to install the 11.4 update (or whichever one is the most recent update as of 1/26/2014) and when it failed i tried to install manually and now whenever i try to use it, i get the following error: "The application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." Right after i click ok i then get this error: "Itunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall Itunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126)." I tried to uninstall Itunes and then reinstall the 11.03 version but that didnt work either. I want to know if i copy all of the music in my itunes folder to an external without consolidating can i still transfer all my itunes music from my current windows xp pc to a brand new one and have my current itunes library in my new pc? Basically i just want to know 3 things: What exactly does consolidating the itunes library do? Can i copy, paste, and transfer my itunes library to an external and from there to a new pc? Will i be able to transfer my itunes library without consolidating the files?

I have found a temporary solution, allowing the previous version of iTunes (v. 11.1.3 (x64) in my case) to be re-installed. It will allow you to re-establish use of iTunes until the Apple software engineers fix the most recent disasterous upgrade (v. 11.1.4). Please see and follow the procedure in the following article:http://smallbusiness.chron.com/reverting-previous-version-itunes-32590.html The previous version works beautifully.

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play (though they still play on the computer). When I tested it on another computer it claimed that computer was not authroied to play these songs even though I was just playing them directly off the ipod. Even more strange is that I alos have a number of songs loaded on my itunes from albums I loaded and I am fairly sure these songs were ones I recorded rather than purchased but now they appear on my purchased list.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Problems shutting down after installing 10.5.3 update?

Has anyone had any problems shutting down there IMac's after installing 10.5.3 update? I've tried shutting down twice and the image that appears when shutting down seems to go in an endless loop an doesn't shut down.

Can you restart from the menu and hold the shift key down, until the Mac
boots in a SafeBoot login screen; then choose Disk Utility (shortcut under
GO in Finder window, to Utilities folder) and run 'repair disk permissions'
then restart the computer normally...(?)
You may also have to consider starting the computer from the OS X
installer disc and choose from an option menu there (not to install)
and choose to use Disk Utility from the booted installer disc, to run
'repair disk' from there? You could also run 'repair disk permissions'
while booted from that installer disc, but maybe you'd still have to
repair those from the running system for best effect once it is back
running from the hard drive's system.
Some minor issues can happen after an update, usually just repairing
disk permissions before installing the update, and/or running up in
SafeBoot, can help. There are other things to try and do, if these don't
help that much. The state of the system prior to an update is important;
since an update can't fix anything otherwise non-related to an update.
Maintenance issues aside, after you repair disk permissions, safeboot,
and restart, if there still is an issue, you could try to download the Combo
OSX 10.5.3 update file and install it over your system; and then repair
disk permissions again after it finally restarts normally.
Was the 10.5.3 update a smaller (delta) file or was it the Combo (large) file?
Good luck & happy computing!

After installing 10.7.2 update the OS does not boot.Any thoughts????

After installing 10.7.2 update the OS does not boot. I tried to recover from recovery hd disk but after 3 attempts I am still not able to download lion! Any thoughts????

Try the Lion Community, and bookmark the notebook community (this is not).
You will probably need to provide others with more information too.

No.
You must restore.

Low Signal Strneght after installing 6.0.2 update

Hi,
I am recieving low signal strneght after installing 6.0.2 update.Any fixes ? or anybody

Oops I meant cellular w/o the data.
You can try doing a reset, hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
if that doesn't help then try - settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
if that doesn't help, then contact your phone carrier and see if they can help.

Unable to access media card after install of 10 software update

After installing the software 10 update, i'm not able to access the media card from the phone or when plugged in to the laptop. from the phone settings menu, i cant choose to save any file into the media card - its grayed out. Everything was working fine until I installed the update. Is this a common problem? did the update wipe out all the media card contents?

Have you tried removing the media card and re-inserting it?

HT6114 fans on full bore after installing 10.9.2 update. fix?

fans on full bore after installing 10.9.2 update. fix?

Same here. I've reset pram, smc, checked for any CPU intensive apps, bought new battery, even opened case and blew dust out of fans. Was going to do a heat sink clean but another thread brought up the idea of Mavericks being the culprit. I hadn't thought of it before but I'm starting to think it has to do with Mavericks.

You need to delete and redownload them to do that. This may require repurchasing paid ones.
