Identifying the model - A1138 High Res

Hello All,
I am looking at buying the 4th generation Powerbook (A1138) from Ebay but have a question. If the laptop in question has the model number A1138, is it safe to assume that the processor is 1.67GHz?
I have looked and looked and as far as I can tell this is the case. But second or third opinion would help.
Thanks,
Double Ohh

Yes, that's the high-resolution 15" PBG4 with dual-layer Superdrive. That model, the last 15" G4, was only produced with a 1.67GHz processor.

  • Identify the Model of your iMac

    Does anyone know how to identify the model (version) of your iMac? I have a indigo slot-loader. But I don't know anything else about it. It doesn't have an OS loaded, and I'm having trouble getting it to read the OS CD I have. So how do I identify exactly what model it is? Is there another way to identify it? Can I look up the machine's number online somewhere?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hello,
    Since you don't actually intend to use OS 9, you may not need to install it.
    The only reason to install OS 9 is if you need to install firmware updates on the machine that are required to install OS X.
    You can find a list of all the updates for your machine here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58174
    And, the ones that are specifically required for OS X are listed here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
    Now, if you do need these updates for your computer, then another option might be to connect your computer to another machine that does have OS 9 installed.
    If your computer has a FireWire port, then you could use FireWire Target Disk Mode to boot your machine as a simulated hard drive.
    Then, connect your computer to another computer that already has OS 9 running on it.
    You can read about this here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    You could then clone that system's hard drive to your hard drive using a backup program. Basically, duplicate that system's hard drive / OS installation to your machine.
    One the installation is copied to your computer, you can disconnect the two machines, and re-boot your computer from it's own hard drive to install the firmware updates.
    It is important to make sure you have all the firmware updates before you install OS X. Failure to get those firmware updates installed could result in having a machine that will not work at all if you install OS X without them.
    Now, if your machine already has those updates, then you can just go directly to OS X.
    You can read the discussion here to see which version of the firmware you have by following the directions in this discussion:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2707137&#2707137
    If you are unable to make sense of the number you find, let me know what it is, and I'll try to help you out.
    If you already have the latest firmware version for your machine, then you can go straight to OS X without worrying about installing OS 9.
    Now, it would still be beneficial to get the other updates that require OS 9. But, those are not as critical as the firmware update for OS X.
    I hope this helps.

  • Help with identifying the Model of a Toshiba satellite

    I have a Toshiba Satellite
    I believe this is a A105, but don't know the full model number.
    I ran Belarc Advisor. It did not give the full model.
    Thanks, Bob

    Hello Robert.
    If per chance you are Canadian, go to the Toshiba.ca site and let it identify your model automatically. I had to do this as mine, like yours, might not be listed on the .com site.

  • How can I identify the cause of high CPU usage

    Just recently, my Mac Book Pro CPU usage has gone through the roof, and the temperature quickly rises to around 80ºC, with the fans are working pretty hard to keep it there.
    I've looked in Activity Monitor, but there's nothing unusual as far as I can tell in the list of processes, but it does show that the system is continually using between 30% and 40% of the CPU all the time, even if I have no applications running. From a cold start, it starts using that much CPU as soon as OSX loads.
    Here's a screen grab of the activity monitor window
    One thing I thought was strange is the amount of Virtual Memory that Growl uses (37gb) but according to the growl website, that's not unusual. I've also tried quitting Growl, but it makes no difference.
    I have 30GB of free space left on my HD.
    Any ideas? I'm worried my Mac Book might be on it's last legs, so I'm hoping and praying that this is something simple-ish.
    thanks

  • 15" LED vs. 17" High Res Display

    So I was wondering for those that have had a chance to visit and apple store and see both of these fine machines. Can you tell me if the 15" LED is brighter and move evenly lite the the new 17" high res display that used the old ccf tech? And if so is it a huge jump between the 2 as far as the brightness goes? I have been wanting a 17" for the longest time and I love the idea of having the extra screen space. But the the 15" from what I hear looks a lot brighter because of the led backlighting. Just looking for some feed back.

    I have seen the 17" High Res and 15.4" LED models side by side, and while the LED looked very nice, I couldn't notice much difference between the two honestly, the models I saw look just as evenly lit, (as even some non LED displays, can be very very perfectly lit, my Fujitsu is a testament to that, why o why can't Apple use Fujitsu screens
    the high res screen looked lovely, and if you need the larger size, definitely go for it. text size could definitely be an issue for some people, but any person with normal eyesight should be perfectly fine. the biggest worries I had was text size in Final Cut pro, and those type of Apps, and while it is smaller, it is still quite usable, and adjusting would not be too difficult.
    and looking at Apples plans for Leopard, with resolution independence, having a High Res screen will no longer have any negatives, as long as the developers do their part, which they have no reason not too.
    hopefully web developers will realize this soon too, while there are still a lot out there, I don't think I know many people that still have a computer without a wide format screen, basically any computer you buy nowadays is using a wide format, so hopefully the industry will freaking adjust soon!! they tend to work on percentages and all of that, so it should be coming soon.
    Fujitsu/Mac Mac OS X (10.4.9) Airport Extreme Base Station (802.11n)
    and why can't someone make a decent browser that ends all the **** resolution dependence?? make developers build site that will work and adjust to whatever dimensions the user wants, that would not be extremely difficult and it would completely solve the problem.
    it is nice to be able to adjust text size in a web browser, but when that larger text has to be in the same amount of space it just makes it more awkward to read.
    go resolution independence!! by next July 4th!

  • Screen Artifacts on High Res Powerbook 15 inch

    Just received the PB 15 high res Friday, so far can't see horizontal lines. I for one am concerned with the artifacts showing up while viewing DVDs and in Safari. Apple CR was kind enough to send a replacement for my previous gen 1.67 15 due to MLB/mem slot/DVDR failures, only one month old. This new screen shows vertical artifacts, a vertical row of color pixels in certain Safari pages, regardless of background color, white and colored pixels flickering on left side of display while viewing DVDs at any scan rate or resolution. The display calibration doesn't correct all the magenta/blue cast either, and must resort to EyeOne to calibrate this new display.
    Leaning toward a refund after going through two defective generations of PB G4s. I'm beginning to feel sort of foolish at this point. I couldn't get the system to recognize the expensive Micron/Crucial Memory just purchased either, Tech Support told me to buy Apple brand, but added that they don't support 2GB configurations in this PB???
    What is everybody doing about this? I'm unable to feel comfortable with this unit by design at this point. I have alot of money invested in Apple products for my photography business and would find it hard to switch over at this point. I'm especially unimpressed with Apple Tech Supports deflection of all this junk. I think iPods will be what's left of this product if Apple doesn't start paying attention to their product instead of image and stock margins.

    I have the same problam. i can see the flickering occasionally in almost any applications, very rapidly and fast that's sometimes hard to notice like a blink of an eye. I have no idea whether it's a graphic card issue or not.
    I have purchased the unit in Apple SF and left the country, I have no idea how to get support after all I know even Apple have worldwide warranty. You can't get it fixed or replace without sending back to US.
    I'm loading software update right now hoping it will cure the problem with my fingers crossed.

  • Help identifying Tecra model

    I've had a series of used Tecra's over the years, and have been very happy with that. 
    I am now looking at buying a used Tecra M11, but I cannot find identification of the exact model from the Part # I have been given.  I was told the part number is PTME3U-04U02N--I have not been able to obtain a full model number from the seller.  Can you help me identify the model so I can look it up here.  I was not able to find this laptop either with a Google search or here on Toshiba support.  Thanks.

    Tecra M11 (PTME3U-04U02N)
    It's the part-number family  (PTME3U) that matters.
    This one is not in the same one.
    Tecra A11-S3540  (PTSE3U-00R00G)
    The one above is essentially like this model.

  • Can you edit in Low Res then conform to High Res

    A producer told me she wanted to edit in Low Res, then do an online to replace the sequence with High Res media.  I haven't done this since I started using Final Cut:  I've edited in High Res all along. 
    Is it necessary?  And how would it be done?  Many thanks for any knowledge you can share.

    ProRes 422 is a mastering codec. It's is a format that you do convert many camera formats into. But it is a full resolution mastering codec. Tutorial?  No...but the manual:

    How did he deal with all that video? Well, he had HUNDREDS of hours...adding up to 54TB. So he had to work on the project in sections, with 12TB loaded at a time.  It was tricky, but far less tricky than offline/online would have been. Less time consuming too...all the time to convert ALL of that footage to offline resolution, long time.
    You're iMac is plenty powerful for ProRes. My 7 year old MacPro could deal with it fine, and your machine is more powerful.

  • Need to identify correct Model of GT70

    Hello,
    I am a new member and a new owner (purchased GT70 from a friend). I was trying to upgrade drivers, BIOS, video card driver, etc. but cannot exactly identify the model. The label on the box says GT70 0NC and MKT Name GT70 0NC - 494US.
    I went to the MSI site and found GT70 20C, 20D, Dragon Edition 2, Dragon Edition 2 Extreme but cannot find the 0NC.
    I kindly request some help to understand which model from the MSI site should I choose to upgrade drivers, BIOS, etc.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Looking at picking up 15" High-res anti-glare, anyone do the same?

    So I had the 15" 2011 2.2Ghz HIgh-res glossy which is a beauty all in its own right. But I sort of got hooked on using a 15" Anti-glare for work and looks really solid all the way around. One thing I always worry about with traveling with my MBP is the glass getting scraped or scratched or cracked, etc. ontop of some of the light glare.
    I was curious did anyone make the trade off and pick up a anti-glare high res instead of the standard high-res glossy?
    Do you like itmore or less? How is the color production for editing movies and playing games like portal or other steam games?
    Is it less weight not having the glass panel attached in day to day travel use?
    easier to clean?
    thanks in advanced!

    I tried to delete this but I don't see how.
    I don't need this question answered anymore because I found a flex model at office depot. I ordered it this morning because they give me 14 days to return it if I don't like it and they don't charge a restocking fee. It's very good that Lenovo doesn't have the same return policy. I'd probably order a number of things I don't really need, fall in love with them and wind up spending way too much money on things I don't need.
    It's also a bit cheaper -- $600 for:
    Flex 2 15.6" 1080p display
    4th Gen i5
    6 GB Ram
    1TB Hard disk
    DVD optical drive
    Seems inexpensive (if it's truly good quality). Very curious to see what you get for $600. (My lenovo twist cost $992 and it only has a 12.5" display). So...I'm not expecting much. I'm just looking for a backup laptop in case of an emergency. My desktop monitor and some hard disks are getting old. I'd like to be able to do something breaks.

  • Looking for a high-res drawing app for the iPad

    I've tried a few of the available iPad drawing apps like Sketchbook Pro and Brushes. It's a little hard to tell, because documentation tends to be short on details, but it appears that most of them (with the exception of Brushes) only let you work and export images at 1024 by 768 resolution. That isn't really high enough resolution for professional work.
    Brushes is the only exception I've found. You work on the iPad in Brushes at 1024 by 768, but they have this OS X app that can convert your exported images to a higher res.
    To me that's crazy awkward and time-consuming, and I think Brushes is OK as a drawing app, but not necessarily what I'm looking for.
    Can anyone give me some better insight into the matter?
    Is there some underlying technical reason that all of these apps have a hard limit of 1024 by 768 resolution?
    Is there an app other than Brushes that can produce pro-level (high resolution) image files on the iPad?
    Thanks,

  • Is it possible to create a script to produce a high res and low res pdf and jpeg from Indesign at the same time

    Hi, I'm just wondering if there is a way to automate a long process I have to do to create assets for my job.
    I have a single page InDesign 6 file which I have to output three ways:
    A low res pdf without bleed or trims
    A high res pdf with bleed and trims
    A low res jpeg downsized to 2% of original size.
    If anyone knows if this is possible I'd love to hear from you.
    Thanks in advance

    Automation requires creating your own IDML script for output. Scroll down on this page to the section on Scripting resources. The text is a bit confusing. It says InDesign CS5 Scripting resources, but then the paragraph for that section says the PDF files are for CS6. I haven't read through these, I just found them by searching for "indesign automation". It does say in part that is can be used for preparing files for printing, so once you figure it out, it should be a single click option to do all three steps.
    You can do them now with the menus you have, assuming you also have Acrobat Pro installed. With any document open, choose File > Adobe PDF Presets, and choose either from the prebuilt defaults, or create your own in the Distiller. However, I don't see a way in the Distiller settings to choose whether or not to include bleed and marks, so I'm not really sure how you'd have them on for one and not the other. As far as JPEG output, that can be chosen under Export. You get a choice to set a resolution and JPEG quality level, but not a size, so the output will be the dimensions of the document.

  • Does iPad change the resolution of a high res photo?

    I read that if I use the Camera Connection Kit to load photos directly from my camera to the iPad, that the iPad "modifies/reduces" the resolution of the jpeg (if they were taken with a high res camera).
    Anyone know if this is really true? And if yes, what the "impact" might be?
    The reason I am concerned is that I want to use my iPad as a repository for my images while I am traveling and then move those photos to my computer for editing when I am back home. BUT if something is going to be lost in this process, I should reconsider.
    Thanks.

    I read that if I use the Camera Connection Kit to load photos directly from my camera to the iPad, that the iPad "modifies/reduces" the resolution of the jpeg (if they were taken with a high res camera).
    It doesn't.
    The original file from the camera is copied to the iPad and it is not modified.
    When you connect the iPad to the computer, you can then copy the original to the computer.
    The reason I am concerned is that I want to use my iPad as a repository for my images while I am traveling and then move those photos to my computer for editing when I am back home. BUT if something is going to be lost in this process
    Nothing is lost from CCK to iPad to computer.
    When syncing photos back to the iPad thru iTunes, the photos get reduced/optimized to 2304 x 1536.

  • If i go to high res (720p or higher) my screen turns green and the video fast forwards to the end.

    Hi,
    I have windows 7 64 bit and use mozila firefox 15.0.1
    I have got the problem that when i select higher resolution in videos (such as on youtube) that at 480p it will run for a while but then just stops even though the buffering is already complete.
    If i go to higher resolutions like 720p or 1080p the video will run for a while again but then the screen goes green and the movie fast forwards to the end preventing me to watch movies without problems at higher res.
    If u want more information about my problems or know a solution pls tell me.
    Manny thanks,
