Jukebox 3 starting from scratch (No installation CD/please help

Hey guys and gurlz! Here's my story:
A while back I bought the Jukebox 3 as a Christmas present for my little brother (he's the best) but nowadays he's moved onto better MP3's. My most recent MP3 was literally chewed by my BFF's dog so I decided to give the 'ol Jukebox a try.
I was eager to use it but my brother lost the INSTALLATION CD so I can't download whatever it is I need onto my laptop. I looked everywhere online but either I'm a total jerkoff?:smileytongue: or it's just too old for any site to carry the dowloadable contents? Please guide me, I'm not that technically savvy so your help would be of great appreciation, thanks
PS: Can you give me a list of what I need and where I can download/find it's Sorry but I'm such a klutz?:smileytongue:
Love,
Ashley ?

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
1.67Ghz is the last model of the Powerbook. OS X Tiger, whose last release is 10.4.11, is a very stable release. However, I started finding newer software that required OS X 10.5 Leopard as a pre-requisite, so I upgraded not long ago. You can call 800-MY-APPLE and order a Leopard upgrade for $129, which is not available in Apple stores.
You should add more memory, for at least 1GB total or more, with max is 2GB (two 1GB cards). If you have one 512MB memory card, you could easily add a 1GB memory in the other slot. Crucial, Kingston (not their value ram line, though), and Samsung have all proven to run well in our Powerbooks. Note there were two 1.67Ghz models available ... yours uses DDR2 memory, and is not interchangeable with DDR memory (they have different slots in the memory board to prevent installing in the wrong place). Crucial you can order direct from at http://www.crucial.com . Kingston is at http://www.kingston.com , and Samsung is sold through distributors, one of which is http://www.macsales.com .
One thing to keep an eye on is your hard drive. A notebook hard drive is usually good for 3-5 years of use, then you start seeing failures. One program called SMARTReporter, keeps an eye on the SMART sensors, which can sometimes give you early warning of an impending failure. Or, if you wanted to swap the drive out for a new one, you could keep the existing one for backup purposes. Any 2.5" parallel ATA hard drive will work (serial ATA or SATA drives will not work). When I replaced my hard drive recently, I went with Seagate, as I've had good success with their drives over time. Western Digital and others make replacement drives, too. Two sources are http://www.newegg.com and http://www.macsales.com
Please post back with any other questions.

  • ICal: how can I start from scratch?

    I'm having recurring and persistent problems with iCal since I bought a new Mac Pro and migrated my user files from my previous computer (G5, which was also running Leopard).
    At first, alarms weren't working. I read several threads here and went through a lot of troubleshooting and finally got that working again.
    However, iCal is still very slow and buggy. For example, when I create a new to-do and click on the "due date" checkbox, it takes about 10 seconds for the check to appear. The spinning beachball is a frequent sight, and everything from creating new events to setting due dates and calendars takes five times longer than it used to when I was using iCal in Tiger.
    I created a backup of my iCal file, and manually exported my calendars for extra protection. Then I used AppZapper to completely uninstall iCal and all related files, and I used Pacifist and the OS X DVDs to reinstall iCal. Then I imported each calendar individually.
    This didn't work. iCal is still so unresponsive it's almost unusable. If there were another alternative out there that worked with my iPhone and other applications that sync with iCal, I'd be using it. But because I depend on those other apps I'm stuck with iCal, and I need to make it work.
    Is it possible that one of my calendars is corrupted and causing problems? What else can I do to find out where the problem lies?

    Harlan83,
    to start from scratch, you’ll need the pair of model-specific grey installation DVDs which originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro. You can purchase a replacement pair of DVDs for your model MacBook Pro from either Apple or iFixit.

  • Macbook Air 1,1 - Mac OS X 10.6.8 - Starting from scratch...

    Hi,
    I just got a Macbook Air 1,1 with OS X ver. 10.6.8...
    The previous owner gave it to me as is, whit almost full disk so I want to erase everything and start from scratch.
    I'm  a nubie, this is the first Mac I own, but after googling around it seems that I need an installation CD or something to reinstall the OS...
    Unfortunately, I have no CD with an OS, just got the Mackbook itself..
    So, how do I proceed to get a clean start?
    best regards
    Kjetil

    Click here and decide if the changes in Lion are worth the purchase price, as well as needing to upgrade or replace any PowerPC software on the computer. Also note that if your computer only has 2GB of RAM, it’ll likely be slow in Lion.

  • Replacing Server - starting from scratch

    our organization has an SCCM2012 server in place which is up and running for about a year now.
    every once in a while, at random times and for random users, all the programs in the catalog get installed - without the user's request.
    we tried everything trying to fix it, but without success.
    i think it's time to start from scratch... create a new server, install sccm, recreate all packages, etc.
    any help regarding the correct procedure to do so will be appreciated!

    There are many guides available that can help you during the installation (see:
    https://www.google.nl/?gws_rd=ssl#q=install+sccm+2012). A few things to keep in mind:
    Use a different site code;
    When you are using auto assignment, make sure that the site assignment boundaries don't overlap.
    Also, did you already log a case with Microsoft to look at your issue? That would be my last resort before starting over..

  • Need to start from scratch

    No, it's not possible without the installer DVDs.

  • How To "Start From Scratch" and Build a Clean iTunes Library on a Portable USB External Drive?

    A while ago I posted about my confused (and confusing) mess of an iTunes:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16183210#16183210
    While dozens looked I guess eveyone agreed with me "what a mess" and moved on.
    So ... someone at the Apple Store suggested that what I should do is start from scratch. But I'm not sure if I understand all the steps.  He said I should:
    * create a folder of all my songs and just the song files not all the other iTunes stuff -- copy all the mp3 and m4a files that I have in Music > iTunes > iTunes Music > Music to a temp folder let's call it "all my music"
    * launch iTunes and tell it to move to / always look at / whatever the terms my new portable external USB drive
    * click on file / add to library and tell iTunes I want to add that "all my music" folder to iTunes
    At this point I don't care if we lose playlists, artwork, play counts and all that stuff.
    Does this approach make sense?
    Is there another way?
    So how do I tell iTunes to only look to the external?  How do I get rid of the old stuff I have on the internal that is offering duplicates and phantom entries?  Do I need to delete iTunes and then download a new copy?  Should I delete the iTunes foilder? ...?
    Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks!

    the simplest and working way.
    go to iTunes -> Preferences -> Advanced
    On there change the iTunes Media Folder location to your external hard drive
    Check that the rest of the preference pane looks similar to the following picture.
    After doing so, on menu bar go to File -> Library -> Organize Library
    This will force iTunes to copy all songs and playlist's to the new place and to build up a new database for the Library.
    Empty or corrupted files will left behind on the old location.
    After checking that all is on place and working at the new location, you may delete all files at the former location.
    Done

  • I just bought a new Macbook Pro and transferred my iTunes archive of music to it. How do I transfer the playlists from my other computer(s)? iTunes on the new machine wants to start from scratch.

    How do I transfer playlists from my other Apple computer(s) to my new Macbook Pro? I think I have successfully moved the music (archive) but the new machine wants to start from scratch on the playlists.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751
    Essentially you need to copy over the itunes folder
    username/Music/itunes
    Over to your macbookpro I suggest using an ethernet cable as it is way quicker. Put it in the same spot on the new Macbook Pro
    username/music/
    This should bring over the playlists etc. Then just put the music back in from the archive

  • How can I reset/refresh Mail and start from scratch in Lion?

    Just completed the upgrade to Lion last night.  On Snow Leopard I had been using Thunderbird as my mail client, but I'm interested in seeing what the upgrades in Mail look like and will do.  Before Thunderbird I did use Mail, so opening the app brought up all my old settings, smart boxes, etc.  I want to start from scratch as though I had never used Mail before - how can I reset it to "zero"?  Can I, or do I need to just manually delete the accounts, folders, boxes, etc. and then re-add them?
    Thanks for the help and advice.

    Ok, answering my own question. I found this article: http://www.christian-kalmar.com/fixing-a-broken-face-detection/
    Rebuilding faces database now. Hopefully it works properly.

  • Hi,  iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos.   Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos

    Hi,
    iTunes is no longer syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone 4. Everything was syncing fine when I first got the phone, but, over the past week or so, it's stopped syncing photos.
    Now, after attempting to start from scratch by deleting all the photos on my iPhone, iTunes won't sync ANY photos from iPhoto back to my iPhone. I've restarted my phone, computer, etc., force quit all photo-related apps on my iPhone, and tried various combinations of turning iTunes' photo syncing on/off, switching photo sync folders, etc., all to no avail -- I can't get my iPhoto library back on to my iPhone no matter what I do.
    Anyone encounter a similar situation? (I've already sent feedback to Apple.) Thanks in advance.

    Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.

  • Had PSE 8 installed on PC Windows 7 with a catalog backup on an external drive. Now have a Mac with OS Mavericks. If I install PSE 12 or Lightroom on this Mac can I use the cat. backup from Windows or must I start from scratch

    Had pse 8 on a Windows 7 PC with a catalog backup on an external drive. Now have a Mac with OS Mavericks. If install pse 12 or Lightroom on the Mac will I be able to use the old catalog backup or must I start from scratch.

    If you made a full catalog backup using the organizer's backup command, and you did it to a removable drive, yes, you can restore it to the mac. A backup made on discs will not work, though.

  • I've lost iWeb and thus my web design.  I must start from scratch.  Should I reinstall iWeb 09 and use that, or is there a better way?

    I've lost iWeb and thus my web design.  I must start from scratch.  Should I reinstall iWeb 09 and use that, or is there a better way?

    The file you really need is named Domain.sites2 which resides in your   Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb foldler.  It's independent from the iWeb application. If it's not in there do you have a backup of your hard drive from an earlier time? 
    Resinatll iWeb 3 from the iLife 09 disk or wherever you got it from originally and then try what's described below:
    In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • How to start from scratch?

    My G40 2388 is running slow although I have increased the memory. I spoke to a computer sales person who did not try to sell me a new laptop but said that it could help to make backup of all documents etc and then reinstall everything and start from scratch. Anyone has experience with that? Will it help? and how do I go about doing it? For instance how to I go back to the initial config. I do not have CDs because the laptop came with Win XP Pro installed from the manufacturer. I just want more speed and more space so I am open to other suggestions.
    Thanks a lot.

    The "funny" thing (I spend most of a day figuring it out but still have figured it out so "funny" is not the right word) is that the G40 recognizes other USB sticks, but also that one USB stick works on other laptops so it seems to be that stick with this mashine that is the issue. I thought it could be the driver but when I try to update the driver it tells me that I have the most recent driver - albeit that it is dated 31 January 2001.
    The problem is that I do not see the drive (F) and when I click on E (the USB is partioned) then I see E and F and then I click on F the mashine gives me this message: This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions on this computer. I have no idea which rstrictions it could be. I am logged in as administrator (only user). I have tried to restart.
    I really find it strange. Maybe I should delete the driver and see what happens? 
    Regarding the restore point: When I look in add / remove programmes, I see several older upgrades of XP and I thought: Maybe if I remove those because I do have the SP3... but maybe that is the same as removing restore points??
    TS files. They are in a folder I have made.. New folder2. It must have been a programme I installed, I just don't know which.. Some file names are: VTS_01_1.VOB (this one files is 1G alone..) and there are several of those.. do you have any idea what these files are for?
    I hope I can get these problems solved...then I can move on with more productive matters

  • SSAUDIT .alg and .atx files are out of synch. How do I start from scratch ?

    After upgrading Hyperion Planning from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.1, the .alg and .atx files that are generated when SS Audit is enabled are now out of synch. How do I start from scratch again ? Stated differently, the row numbers in the .alg file no longer correspond to the .atx rows. How do I "reset" these files so they start again in row 1 ?
    I know this must have happned to someone else so I thought a solution could be easily googled and found. I can't find it anywhere.

    Stop the application and delete the files. If you want to just keep the changes from the last backup, change in the essbase.cfg SSAudit to SSauditR and then when you do an endArchive it will delete the files and start over
