Installed 10.4.6, airport card is now dead. PLEASE HELP!

I installed 10.4.6, my airport card worked great before this. Now it's totally dead, won't power on and doesn't work. The card is only a few months old and worked great before I installed 10.4.6. I have tried taking the card out and reinserting it, restarting the computer, restarting the router, restarting the airport extreme base station, playing around with the network settings, you name it I have tried it. Can someone please give me some help???
400mghz Powerbook G4 Titanium Mac OS X (10.4.6) 100gb hd, 768mb RAM

it's actually a Macsense AEROcard extreme WPE-800.
It's this one you're talking about, isn't it? Do they use any custom drivers or is it plug+play?
And I don't have another laptop to test it on. I have contacted Macsense and the only response I got from them was one asking me what kind of computer I am using the card on.
What kind of response was that? They make Mac products, you've been using the card fine, it now seems dead and the only feedback you got from them was that?
BTW: wireless cards run hot and it's not unusual to get fried (or fry the PCMCIA slot they plug in), the best way to verify if the card's dead or not is to take your card to a friend's Mac (or try your local Apple Store) and test it (see if it powers on).
Again, if the card is dead (and when hardware fails) 10.4.6 (and any OS) has nothing to do with it

    Try popping out the SIM card and turn off the phone.
    Pop in the SIM card once again and turn on the phone, make sure that the SIM card is placed and seated perfectly in the tray!
    Tell me how did you unlock your phone!?

  • HT3986 i installed win 7 on my mac book, and the sound driver was installed successfully, but i don't hear any sound, please help

    Is the volume muted? Click on the volume icon in the system tray to see if it shows as muted. If that's the case, I know of a workaround to fix this because if you unmute the speakers now, the condition will come back when you reboot your computer. I don't know the exact steps off the top of my head at the moment as I'm not in front of my machine. Check this first and reply if muting was the problem and I will detail the steps needed to fix the problem.

  • Card details on debit card declined message. Used card many times before please help

    I've made many purchases before on this card only all of a sudden istore and the app store are refusing it. Every time I try to download an app it says there is a billing problem with a previous purchase please update your information. Every time I do it says your payment method was declined please enter another payment method. But I've been using this payment method for over a month and half now, so whys it doing this now. Please help, I've tried changing my password, I've tried re entering all the information, but nothing's working. I can't even update my apps because of it.

    If your card isn't being accepted, there is a reason it is being declined. Maybe you made a small typo with the address you entered, maybe an abbreviation is off, but something is causing your credit card company to deny the charge. These types of online vendors automatically send the details you entered to your bank's computer system, so even tiny differences like entering "St." instead of "St" are enough to cause problems. If that isn't the problem, you'll need to sort it out with your bank.
    The message about your previous purchase means that iTunes was never able to receive payment for an order on your account. If your card keeps gettng declined, you might need to pay for that order with a different credit card or an iTunes gift card before you can buy anything else. You should probably email iTunes Store support to see if they can look over your account and locate the source of the problem is.

  • My mom put my ipod 5th gen in the house somewhere and it was turned off. It is connected to the internet in the house. How do i turn it on with the Findmyiphone or something else? It was an expensive gift and we can't find it now! Please help!

    My mom put my ipod 5th gen in the house somewhere and it was turned off. It is connected to the internet in the house. How do i turn it on with the Findmyiphone or something else? It was an expensive gift and we can't find it now! Please help! How do i turn it on without finding it because she can't remember where it was.

    That is so dumb...Apple is the best and most techinological company IN THE WORLD and they don't have the time to invent something like that? HUH? All they are worried about is making the "Worlds best Phone" and they can't take the time out to help their users or anybody that has their products. All they have is "Find mt Iphone" Well they should step up and do something else to help people like me out. Find a way to turn it on and you can find it or find a way to turn it on remotely.
    Thank you for your replys

  • I restored my 2nd hand ipad 2, previous owner released my ipad from their account and I still can not activate it using my apple id and password.  What do I have to do now?  Please help!

    I bought my ipad 2 from an acquintance.  I updated my software to iOS7 and after that was when all this started.  I got locked out because I was not using the right password.  After that, I restored my ipad.  After learning that the previous owner had to remove the ipad from their account, I contacted her and she did remove it.  Now, when I get to the Activate screen, it will not take my ID and password.  I've done all the steps necessary but can not get past this.  I've read so many threads and other articles on restoring and having the previous owner remove it, I've done all of that, but what do I do now?  Please help! Thank you.

    The previous owner/user should have done this.

  • TS1702 Why won't my apps install on my ipad? it keeps waiting. Please help

    Why won't my apps install on my iPad, it just keeps waiting. Please help.
    Thanks.

    These are all steps that have worked for some other users in the past. They may not work for you, but they are worth a try.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • I have a debit card but would like to download apps from the store. how do I do that? I can't possibly get a credit card just for this. please help.

    Hi,
    I have an iTouch. I'd like to download some free apps. but I have a debit card but would like to download apps from the store. how do I do that? I can't possibly get a credit card just for this. please help.

    I really do not think it is the iPad or your network connection. Other users have reported this very same issue. Try this and see if it works for you - it may not work - but it's easy to try - harmless - and it has worked in the past for others.
    Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store> Apple ID and sign in again.

  • " the iPod software update server could not be contacted " what am I suppose to do now? please help.

    Hi, It's been a week now since im having this problem with my iPod touch 4thgen 8GB. it says it needs to be restored but when i do so it gives me an error which says " the iPod software update server could not be contacted ". I've tried restoring it a hundred times and each time this is what it says. under it is written " make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active or try again later ". what does that mean? that what am I suppose to do now? please help.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
