Is iBook G4 (early 2004) battery hot-swappable during sleep

Is the battery of an iBook G4 (early 2004) hot-swappable while the computer is in sleep mode and the power adapter is not connected?

No. Download the iBook Manual from this page:
http://www.apple.com/support/ibook/
On page 46 of the manual, it says to shut down the iBook before removing the battery.
The online instructions for iBook battery replacement can be found here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88121
Again, it tells you to shut down the iBook before removing the battery. This has not changed for the iBook G4.
Here is the list for part numbers for backup batteries:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86181
Note that all iBooks are listed as n/a (not applicable) when it comes to backup batteries. Since your iBook does not have a backup battery, the battery is not hot-swappable.

  • Ibook G4 (Early 2004) wireless

    Does anybody knows if my Ibook G4 (early 2004) 12.1 inch serial number UV4232SKQJP is airport extreme ready? I want to go wireless but I don't know if I shoud buy the aiport card or the airport extreme card. How could i know which one? Thanks.

    According to Low End Mac:
    http://www.lowendmac.com/ibooks/12-100.html
    The 12" iBook G4/1 GHz introduced 2004.04.19 had wireless networking: 54 Mbps AirPort Extreme optional.
    So you would just need an Airport Extreme card (mounts under the keyboard on the left). Take a peek to make sure one's not already there.

  • RAM for iBook G4 (early 2004) - PC2100 or PC2700??

    Hi,
    i want to add 1GB RAM in my iBook G4 (early 2004) 1.2GHz 14''.
    Which i found out can handle PC2100 (and is PC2700 compatible) according to this doc.
    Which one you recommend, PC2100 or PC2700? Any diference?
    So can i buy any RAM with the following specification?
    1GB RAM PC2700 (or PC2100) - DDR 333 SO-DIMM - 200pin
    thanks in advance
    iBook G4 1.2GHz 14'' (early 2004)   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   256RAM - 60 GB

    Hi,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    Both will work. There's no advantage to using PC2700 as it will run at PC2100 speed. Go with the least expensive of the two.

  • MBA 2013 battery drain quickly during sleep after updated to mavericks

    Hi,
    After I updated to mavericks this Tuesday, I noticed the battery drains quickly during sleep mode.
    Before the system update, everything was ok. Each night after I closed the lid, it went to sleep and the battery only droped less than 5% after sleep of the whole night.
    But during the last two nights after system update, it drained more than 50% of the battery during 8-hour sleep. I could feel some heat on its back when I picked it up. I did not change any system setting or installed any new apps.
    my MBA: latest 2013 version, 13 inch, haswell i7, 8G ram, 256 SSD.
    I liked my mba so much because of the long battery life. But now It was really annoying because I have to charge it very often.
    Any ideas how to solve this issue?

    Hi Hans,
    There's another thread going with the same issue as you... check:

  • IBook G4 (Early 2004) won't recognize RAM I just installed

    My iBook has 256MB RAM and I recently bought a 1GB PC2100 DDR SODIMM 333MHz RAM card from macsales.com. The card appears to fit in the empty RAM slot, and locks in okay, but it does not seem to push in all the way (about a millimeter of the gold metal connectors (sorry about my lack of vocabulary) is exposed). It's hard to tell from the pictures in Apple's installation directions (http://www.info.apple.com/usen/cip/pdf/ibkg4/ibg4-mem-cip1.pdf) whether this is correct or not. When I start my computer it says the second RAM slot is still empty, leading me to think the card is not installed correctly. Since I had a similar issue installing an Airport card but then found out I just had to shove it in the slot, I wonder if I am supposed to just push the RAM in a little harder, but I don't want to break anything. Is there anything I can do to find out whether the problem is bad RAM or incorrect RAM?
    I wonder if the RAM card I bought has the incorrect amount of MHz (there was a choice between 333 and 266)--would this cause the RAM to be unrecognized?

    Hi Nicole,
    Welcome to the Discussions,
    It takes more force than you'd think necessary to fully seat the card. Take it out and apply even pressure to seat it fully.

  • MB Battery drain during sleep

    I have a MacBook IntelDuo (not 2) that I just purchased in October.
    I noticed that the battery still drains during sleep. If I put the computer to sleep for 4 hours, it drops by about 15% - 20%.
    I had a iBook (white g3 500mhz) and I could put it to sleep for days without the battery barely draining at all.... espeically in OS9 (over a week unplugged and asleep and had 25% battery left). Once I switched to OSX the battery drained a bit faster.
    Drain is expected, but this seems like a much bigger drain than older systems. What could still be running when it's asleep?

    When you put it to sleep, do you notice a steady white light? If so, then only your display is sleeping.
    You can change sleep settings in System Preferences > Energy Saver.
    Your battery will drain if only your display is sleeping. Your computer is still on if you see the light.

  • Hot-swappable Battery?

    I had a 15" PowerBook G4, and one of my favorite features was the hot-swappable battery -- if you needed to switch to a spare battery, you could just close the lid, quickly take out the old battery and put in a fresh one.
    I've tried this on my MacBook Pro, and every time I do it shuts down on me.
    My question is, does this mean that battery hot-swap isn't supported? Or is there some small internal battery in my MacBook Pro (that would allow this) not functioning properly?

    The MBPs can in fact hot-swap batteries. While it doesn't exactly work the same as the PowerBooks it does work fine and in some ways it's better than the PBs. If you have disabled Safe Sleep then this is your problem as you need it. With a Safe Sleep, everything in RAM gets copied to hard drive so when it loses power, all can be restored. So, all you need to do is to sleep your MBP, and when your remove the battery, yes it just shuts off, however, when you return a battery and push the power button it will restore properly from Safe Sleep.
    The PBs did it differently and used the PRAM battery to maintain sleep, for around a minute or so, while you swapped batteries. The MBPs can be in Safe Sleep indefinitely.

  • My macbook pro 2.0 early 2011 will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?

    Alo, my Macbook pro i7 2 GHz Intel Core i7 (early 2011) will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?

    There is no output from that command line?   Maybe the pid changed.
    I'll repeat what I am trying to find out...
    1. You do a pmset -g on the terminal.
    2. The output from that pmset should have a line that says "sleep 0 (imposed by n)" where n is some number.
    3. The ps ax | grep n is supposed to display what the process associated with n is.
    It's the output from step 3 that should indicate what is causing you not to sleep.
    But speaking of sleep, that's where I am going.

    These are usually the features of a faulty battery. Restore iPhone Firmware with iTunes 10.7 or 11 on computer. See if better. If not, and there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution. If no Coverage, still make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick (minutes time) battery diagnostic testing.

  • Powe Mac G5 early 2004 gives error (no memory installed) Do I need to replace the Logic Board. Machine powers up,2beeps and power lights blinks 2 times and stops there, No video or any thing?

    I just recently aquired a Power Mac G5 early 2004.
    When I power the system up. I get 2 beeps
    and the small front panel light blinks 2 times continuously.
    The error codes show that it means a memory problem or
    no memory present. Memory is installed.
    In this case do I need to replace the mother board.
    The system goes no futher, no video or any thing.

    Well, it's possible that someone pulled the original RAM from the computer before they sold it, and repalced it with incompatible RAM. That, believe it of not, would be the best of all world in this case, as a working G5 logic board and its installation could cost as much as a refurbed Intel mac.
    I would contact the seller if you did not personally see the computer working before you bought it.
    As the computer had to be moved about--possibly shipped--to change hands, first check that all internal cards and RAM Modules are fully seated. They can work loose in some models.

  • IBook G4 late 2004 model - can anyone remember the size of the standard HD?

    I purchased my iBook in 2005. It was the late 2004 model (I think this was the last iBook G4). Can anyone remember what size the HD was that came standard with the cheapest model?

    Hi Jeffrey
    The iBook G4 (Late 2004) had two main variants,
    +Machine ID called PowerBook6,5+
    the 1.2 Ghz (12.1") and the 1.33 Ghz (14")
    with hard drives being 30, 60 or 80 GB.
    There was a later model, the last iBook G4 being the (Mid 2005) one.
    +Machine ID called PowerBook6,7+
    again two variants,
    1.33 Ghz (12.1") and the 1.42 Ghz (14.1")
    with hard drives being 40, 60 80 or 100 GB.
    I guess this doesn't really answer your question, with so many variations but I hope it gives you something to go on.

  • Hot Swappable drive case

    I am doing a little upgrade to help me with backing up my computer etc.
    When I was building my computer Baz Studio North suggested I consider this hot swappable drive thingie:
    SUPERMICRO CSE-M35T-1B Black 5 Bay Hot-Swapable SATA HDD Enclosure
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817121405&cm_re=supermicro-_-17-121- 405-_-Product
    I have one OS drive and 4 - 1TB drives in my raid.
    Is that Micro Hot swappable still a good choice, or are there others.
    I will be buying 2 additional 1 TB drives for backup and still, for now keep my raid as four 1 TB drives.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Rowby
    I have been using the Chembro Enclosures for a while Now, Very easy to install, keeps the HD's at low temps.
    Since I am using 4 enclosures the fan sound was way to loud for me, so I replaced the fans for quite ones. With one enclosure the fan sound might not be to bad.
    Also the sata connectors on the rear of the case look a lot better insulated than the supermicro.

  • Are SATA drives hot-swappable?

    Are the SATA drives inside my Mac Pro hot swappable as long as I unmount them before removing them from the drive bays?

    the backplane isn't
    opening the side case while running isn't recommended
    there are drive cases with hot swap ability, even motherboards, ours isn't one of them.

  • Is X2-10GB-SR transcevier hot swappable on WS-C4948-10GE switch?

    The product document on Cisco switch mentions only Fan tray and power supply as hot swappable but not GBIC.
    Does switch allow hot swap on gbic?

    Typically, when "hot swappable" is mentioned, it means that these items can be replaced while not impacting the operation of the system.
    When an optics module is pulled, traffic will be impacted. Depending upon the system's configuration, the traffic will need to re-converge.
    The optics modules can be installed or removed while the system is powered up.
    Hope this helps.
