IBook use Powerbook charger?

My iBook charger has begun to work intermittently. I had a Powerbook G4 titanium before this iBook and the same time happened to it. Eventually, it began to spark, and I had to replace it.
My question is, can I use the Powerbook charger on my iBook? I thought I read somewhere not to do that, but it seems that since the replacement chargers Apple sells is for both the Powerbook and iBook that I should be able to do this. I just wanted to ask before I tried it.
Thanks!
Sharon

Hi Sharon,
Yes, you can use it. iBooks and PowerBooks use the same 65w adapter.

Hope this additional info helps
None of the powerbooks came with a MagSafe adapter. It was introduced with the MacBook and MacBook Pro. Are you sure it is a powerbook adapter? Here are all the adapters and models used on.

Anyone editing FCP on a 12" iBook or Powerbook?

I'm looking at writing an article about "micro" HD production on the road - HD in a backpack, that sort of thing. Now, when I say production, I'm not talking very high end. I know the hardware isn't there yet! Think news, documentary or magazine show packages.
Anyway, I'm thinking about including a 12" Apple laptop in the mix and I was wondering if anyone has experience using either the iBook or Powerbook for HDV or MPEG4 editing. Is the small unit up to the job - internal drive speed sufficient, single Firewire port enough, etc.?
Also, any micro equipment you've been impressed with recently would help (mics, lights, anything at all)? Whatever it is, it has to be tiny.
Thanks

OK, I understand all that but I don't think it applies here. I'd probably be editing off the Powerbook's internal drive. I wouldn't be using the camera (it records video to an SD card) as a drive except in the initial import of files.
As far as RAM and "horsepower," while on the road I've been editing HDV pretty successfully on my 17" laptop and it's a 1G with only 512M of RAM.

I guess, ultimately, the point is not whether this would be an ideal production workflow but, could it be done in a pinch, like on a mountaintop or a sailboat.

The most common Quicktime 7.1 problem I've seen is someone's audio settings get messed up by a certain software. Go to the Audio Midi Setup application in Applications -> Utilities and see if your audio output has set for 96 Hz. If you drop it to 44.1 Hz, the audio issues some may have with Quicktime 7.1 would be fixed. If you are having other Quicktime issues, you may want to post to the Quicktime board your question by clicking on Post a New Topic at the beginning of:

rather than posting at the end of someone else's thread. That way you'll get a wider audience, and potentially someone who knows the answer.

Transfer Netscape email from iBook to PowerBook

I am switching from using Netscape for email on a iBook G4 to a PowerBook G4. The iBook has Netscape 7.2 with bookmarks and emails. I can’t get Netscape on the PowerBook to recognize the iBook email files that I copied over. What I did was to copy over (via Firewire) the Mozilla folder in “computer”/”hard drive”/users/”name”/Library from iBook to PowerBook.
When I start Netscape on the PowerBook Netscape acts as if a new user profile is being set up and won’t find the user profile that was copied with the Mozilla folder. There must be another file that needs to be copied that I am missing. What is it?

Your profile is contained at Documents->Mozilla->Profiles. Here's an article on moving Netscape mail that may help, and it includes macs: http://www.bu.edu/pcsc/email/manage/newprogram.html#utility

Is it possible i am using duplicate charger for charging battery but battery life is very short 6 hours what's the problem

Is it possible i am using duplicate charger for charging battery but battery life is very short 6 hours what's the problem

First, the battery. The recalled battery replacements have not held up well, and, unfortunately, feedback on the Apple site isn't what I would call complementary about their batteries. When I replaced mine, I got a Newer Technology battery from OWC at http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/BAP17AL60RS/ . Mine has 104 cycles on it and 4113 mAh capacity.
Now, charging. There are only 4 components in the charging circuit: Power adapter, DC-in card, battery and logic board. It sounds like your power adapter, being newer, is probably fine. Where the power adapter plugs into the computer, is that jack loose? If you put a pen or pencil on it and push it a little, gently, does it wiggle side-to-side? If so, your DC-in card may be bad. Assuming the battery stats are good and the battery is good, it should charge. Sooo, last but not least, is the logic board. Probably the best thing you can do is find a friend with a Powerbook or visit an Apple store or Apple authorized service provider to use another power supply that they know works (just to be sure) and a substitute battery (again, to be sure). If indeed yours are good, and I went through this a few months ago with one of our Powerbooks, you can replace the DC-in card, and if that doesn't work, then the logic board.
If you want Apple to do that, have them send it to the Apple depot, where they'll do whatever is required to put the Powerbook in close to new condition. Put an old, bad, Apple battery in it, so they'll replace it. Cost runs around $350 if the case isn't banged up, and if it is, the price can go up. When ours went in, they replaced the logic board and put a new battery in. Of course ensure your data is backed up, and if anything is really confidential, move it onto an encrypted disk on your hard drive or back it up and delete it.
If you have the store replace the logic board, it will run you more than double what they charge to send it to the depot.

What? so were you able to turn on the computer with the new plug? does it give you any other light? amber/orange light?

I would like to embed interactive widgets in iBooks using iBookAuthor. The widgets in question started life in Java but GWT has allowed them to be converted to javascript and to run on web pages (for example, http://softoption.us/content/node/437 scroll to the bottom). In theory, iBookAuthor can bring in most html5, and much javascript. The technique is to wrap the html in a folder, with 2 extra files, a plist and a default png and then change the extension of the folder to ‘.wdgt’. This is the technique for making Dashboard widgets for the Mac, and Apple even have the Dashcode software to do it. So what you really do is to make a Dashboard widget, then iBookAuthor can import it. So far, so good. And some folk have been doing this, for example http://www.prweb.com/releases/2012/2/prweb9242432.htm http://www.panophoto.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=10417&p=158330#p158423 However, if you start with GWT and create a single page with one button and a Hello World, compile it, and get the WAR file (I use Eclipse here)… the Safari browser and others will run it properly (even on an iPad). Then if you wrap it, a proper Dashboard widget is created, which runs properly on a Mac. Then if you go to iBookAuthor and put a custom widget in the Text, then drag it in. It is accepted by the text and shown as being there. However, if you use Preview to look at it on an iPad, it is gone (or was never there in the first place). Anyone any ideas on this? [And iBook Author seems to give no warnings.] The widget is at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46713473/Test6.wdgt.zip I have bells and whistles that I’d like to get into an iBook!
Thanks for any insights.

I do have a little to add, which might help someone. Indeed, opening a blank page and dragging the widget straight in seems good in difficult cases. But, actually, I was also able to insert successfully from the Toolbar especially to blank pages. So, it may have been something to do with the columns and stuff like that. Anyway back then the insertion would show in iBooks Author but not in the Preview on the iPad. I moved on to actual Google Web Toolkit output javascript. Basically I had three at hand to try: a Hello World with a button which went straight it, one of moderate complexity, (for example with a built in Lisp interpreter), which also went straight in, and finally a more complex one that initially was rejected by iBook Author. Author complained that there was an unsupported media file (of course, Author does not tell you which one it is, that would be too easy). [Remember, this was a proper working Dashboard widget which could be installed on a Mac]. Among other things I had read remarks about .gif files. When looking through the GWT war directory at the actual javascript etc files, I noticed there were two gifs there one called ‘clear.cache.gif ‘ and a second one called ‘0F89659FF3F324AE4116F700257E32BD.cache.gif’. (Now, there is obfuscation so the numbers here may be different from case to case.) The clear.cache.gif did not seem to be anything special. But the other one is an animation. It is three little boxes that twinkle (rather like a waiting spinning cursor). So, I opened that file and saved it to itself (that picks the top frame of the animation and saves only that, leaving you with an unanimated gif). The resulting widget drags and drops into iBooks Author (and seems to work properly at a quick glance). So, if you are having trouble with ‘unsupported media files’ converting animated gifs into unanimated gifs might help in some cases.

After lollypop upgrade I can no longer transfer files from LG g3 to windows8 computer using USB charge cord. Can I roll back to Kittcat?

That is definitely odd, grantcool. Let's help restore this important data transfer feature. To confirm, when you connect the USB cable to your phone and computer > Pull down the Notification Bar > Select USB Connected > Can you choose Media Sync (MTP) ?

Is it normal for someone to have general diffuculty charging an ipad? I see the "not charging" message even when I am using the charger and cord that came in the original box, plugged into a wall socket directly. It is normal for me to plug it in overnight and to see no charge whatsoever the next day. I have never had so much trouble using a friggin charger in my life. It just seems to be exceedingly finicky. What am I missing?

Charging your iPad should not be problematic. It should be an easy thing to do using the charger provided with your iPad connected to a known good wall outlet.
The charging problem you are experiencing is most like caused by:
1. A faulty charger
2. A faulty cable
3. A bad wall outlet
4. A problem in the iPad.
The first three of these are easiest to eliminate. Try a for ends charger and cable. Make absolutely sure your outlet is good. Try other outlets.
If the charger, cable and outlet a proven to be good then the problem lies in the iPad.
Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.
