IBook G4 (mid 2005) RAM installation instructions

I'm looking for instructions on installing 1GB of RAM in my iBook. All the references to instructions are for 2004 models. Are the instructions the same for mine?

The directions are in the User's guide on Page 53. You can download the User's guide by clicking http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iBook_G4_Mid_2005_UsersGuide.pdf

  • IBook G4 (Mid 2005) - AirPort 'disappeared' - Help!

    Hello.
    I'm an owner of an iBook G4 (Mid 2005) @ 1.33GHz.
    It's been working perfectly since it has been bought. Till yesterday...
    It came with Tiger, but some time ago I ordered Leopard. Everything was still working fine. But few days ago I decided to update OS to 10.5.2. After that it was still OK.
    I use XAMPP (Apache Distribution with MySQL and other stuff). It set up permissions for 'nobody' on /Applications/xampp where I keep my site's files. Every time I wanted to save a file there (using BBEdit) I had to authenticate.
    Yesterday, I got back to work on my site and when I tried to save a file and authenticated - whole system just freezed. But before, Software Update showed up and said that the Leopard Graphics update is ready to be installed, but I didn't want to update that time so I closed it.
    I think that might be caused by some permissions' violation between some applications using that directory (I had few web browsers open, and my server was accessible via AirPort at all). I hard-reset my iBook.
    When Mac OS got loaded - I noticed that my AirPort Extreme card is no longer recognized.

    That was really weird.. It just disappeared..
    First, I tried resetting PMU. No result. Also reset PRAM. Then safe-booted.
    Amazingly - AirPort was back! So I decided to reboot and just get back to work, but it disappeared once again. Tried resetting PMU and PRAM again and again, but with no results... I shut it down and opened it.
    It's the last revision, so the AirPort card is not normally accessible.
    Closed it, and booted once again. Still no AirPort...
    I installed that update mentioned before by downloading it manually from Apple Downloads. It didn't change anything.
    As I borrowed my Leopard Install DVD to my friend who's got a new iMac and lost his own, I performed a Hardware Test using my old Tiger (10.4.2) Installation DVD.
    It didn't find any problems:
    Test Results
    AirPort - Passed
    Logic Board - Passed
    Mass Storage - Passed
    Memory - Passed
    Modem - Device found (What about this one? Is it normal?)
    Video RAM - Passed
    and in the Hardware Profile:
    Communication
    Ethernet HW address: xxx
    AirPort card: AirPort Extreme
    Bluetooth: Present
    FireWire devices: Not present
    It all just appeared to be OK, and my issues were only software-related.
    I thought of performing a clean Mac OS X Tiger installation, so I started making backup.
    Booted normally and again, the AirPort was back! Found my home network, typed in the password and successfully connected. After a while I got a kernel panic, so I had to restart the machine.
    Again, AirPort was on. This time I managed to connect to the internet. Did all the backup, but then I got another kernel panic. I reset the PMU, what resulted losing AirPort again.
    I thought that system reinstallation will fix all my problems, but I was wrong. Freshly installed Tiger couldn't see the AirPort card. Same after update to 10.4.11. I did all the PMU, PRAM, safe-booting tricks, but never resulting.
    I also tried typing 'reset-nvram','set-defaults' and 'reset-all' in the Open Firmware console or typing 'sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions/' in the Terminal. Still no results.
    What should I do ? I really don't want to pay boatloads to get it repaired..
    Help

    Thanks for your response.
    Anyway, I fixed it manually using Warren's tutorial @ Applintosh.
    Thank you, Warren!

  • How to install Mac OS 10.1 on iBook G4 mid-2005

    Hi. I have just bought a vintage copy of Mac OS 10.1 for my iBook G4, not realizing that I can't strictly speaking install the OS on the machine. I read that some people have done it, but I am running 10.4.11, and I was wondering how I can dual boot and install 10.1 on a different partition, as the earliest OS was 10.3 Panther. Thanks!
    -jonasfromwa

    Rather unlikely Puma 10.1.5 would be able to support booting a later model mid-2005 iBook G4 that shipped with Tiger 10.4.x -- As Puma was intended to run on G3 PPCs, that often would have booted in OS 9 by default. And used rather different firmware in specific hardware for the old PPC G3 to use OSX on vintage chips. A real headache zone. I'd rather have seen some more parallel development of OS 9.2.2... Almost as good as Tiger 10.4.11 as a fine OS.
    I vaguely remember Puma as a 'vast improvement over the OS X Public Beta of Sept 2000' which some foolishly installed on their workstations.
    Use older Vintage hardware with partitioned hard disk drives, and watch for those which supported FireWire (iMac400DV was a good one) because you could use an external hard disk drive. Maybe even boot clones, etc from there. With all the limitations on the early hardware that made first practical use of OS X nearly impossible, a newer machine at the other end won't support an antique operating system readily if at all. Not without writing some code; and there probably are firmware considerations beyond the scope of reason. Better to get the correct hardware for the vintage experience.
    Makes me tired just thinking about it!
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Ibook G4 (mid 2005) Bluetooth Issue

    I am having trouble with my bluetooth firmware updater it says "This version of the updater is missing the firmware file cannot proceed". I misplace all of my install discs like a moron. do i need the install discs or can the fix be downloaded.

    The Apple Hardware Test included within the original software package
    the computer shipped with may be helpful in determining the cause of
    the issues; and the correct one is in those discs you no longer have.
    +{Or, according to another post, discs you recently acquired. Usually+
    +these replacements are DVD media, if the computer originally had+
    +this kind of media and if the drive was a DVD combo or superdrive.+
    +The iBook G4 mid-1005 did not ship with a CD-ROM drive, so the+
    +media discs would be DVDs.}+
    You may be able to order a replacement installer disc set for that iBook
    from the Apple store online, by calling their sales support main phone
    number (as indicated in the web page header, usually) and be prepared
    with the serial number of the computer on the ready; and a means to pay
    a fee for the replacement disc set, should they be available still.
    There is a possibility the bluetooth/wi-fi module itself may have failed,
    in which case you may have to get and replace the one in the computer.
    That part is on the logic board and has a connector and a bolt/nut that
    holds the electronic part to the logic board. There are manuals for free
    on such sites as http://ifixit.com/ for the repairs and take-apart details.
    Hopefully this helps somewhat.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Need RAM Installation Instructions for mac mini intel duo core

    I just purchased two gig of ram for my intel duo core mac mini and cannot figure out how to install. I was able to get the cover off - but where does the RAM go?
    I can't find any instructions on the apple support page for the mac mini.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

  • Ibook G4 (mid 2005) dual displays

    Greetings fellow mac users!
    I have a ibook G4 1.33 Ghz and I want to connect it to a projector. I understand that I would need a vga adapter but I want the ibook screen to display the software interface and I want the projector to show the composite video that the software is generating. I don't think the vga adapter would accomplish this but correct me if I'm wrong. Is what I want possible with the ibook?
    Thanks for any advice anyone can give!

    Hi,
    The projector will display the Desktop or any application on top. What you want to do should work as long as you normally see those elements when the app is running.
    You should have received a VGA adapter with your iBook when you bought it. They were included with all iBooks.

  • G4 iBook 1.33 (mid-2005) airport card install instructions?

    I asked this question in an earlier post but the title was misleading, I think.
    I need to reseat my Airport Express card and I don't know where it is or how to do it. Please point me to the appropriate URL that has diagrams.
    I've searched and searched and can't find it.
    ibook g4 1.33 12"   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    In case you haven't already found out, the 1.33 (mid-2005 model) iBook is the only model without user-access to the airport card. In order to have it re-seated or replaced, you have to take it to an Apple Tech.

  • IBook (mid-2005) keeps booting into Safe Boot

    My nephew's old iBook 12" 1.33 (mid-2005) has a curious issue. Every time he restarts, the screen reports Safe Boot., even though he's holding down no keys to get there. I had him check in case any keys were stuck, especially the shift keys, of course, but all were functioning normally.
    He's restarted several times, to no avail. He can't escape from Safe Boot.
    Anyone know why this would be happening?
    Thanks

    Hi, Niel--
    Unfortunately, I forgot to mention I had already tried that to no avail. The only thing that's worked so far is something he did by accident.
    I told him to restart into single-user mode to use fsck on it. I said to hold down the S while restarting. He never let up on the key until the words, Booting into Max OS X appeared. Somehow, holding down the S through all that rebooted him normally. I still don't quite know how.
    But he still can't reboot normally without going through single user mode even after that. I'm baffled.

  • Apex 3.0 installation instructions – unclear

    Hello All,
    I am trying to follow installation instructions (http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32472_01/doc/install.300/b32468/install.htm#CHDHIJGE) to install Apex 3.0. This is the part that confuses me:
    3.2 Installing the Oracle Application Express Software
    Change your working directory to apex.
    -- I assume, they want me to open command prompt, and then navigate where I had extracted the zip file into. OK
    Start SQL*Plus and connect the database where Oracle Application Express is installed as SYS. For example:
    SYSTEM_DRIVE:\apex\sqlplus sys/SYS_password as sysdba
    -- There is no Application Express installed anywhere YET. Shouldn't be it rather ...Express is going to be installed... ?
    Run apexins.sql passing the following five arguments in the order shown:
    -- There is no apexins.sql in the whole apex folder.
    @apexins password tablespace_apex tablespace_files tablespace_temp images
    -- I get this error when I try to run it:
    SQL> @apexins ********* SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
    SP2-0310: unable to open file "apexins.sql"
    SQL>
    Thank you for your time.

    Hello,
    I’ve found these installation instructions from user567567 (APEX 3.0 INSTALL STEPS USING 10g R2 And it looks like providing full path should be sufficient (step 6). However it still does not work:
    SQL> @c:\temp\apex\apexins ********** SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
    SP2-0310: unable to open file "c:\temp\apex\apexins.sql"
    SQL>
    Simply, there is nothing with filename like apexins anywhere in my apex directory. (c:\temp\apex)
    Thank you,
    Daniel
