Lost recognition of 512MB after 10.4.7 upgrade

Immediately after installing the 10.4.7 upgrade, my Powerbook no longer recognizes one of my 512 MB of RAM. System Profiler show one however it shows that the second slot is EMPTY!?! Is anyone else having this problem?? How can I fix it so I can get all 1.25GB of memory recognized again?!?!
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

Thanks A Brody,
However, my machine is older than that program covers. I have a serial number outside of the covered range. It does sound like a similar problem though.
Thanks for the sugestion.

  • Lost my books(2)after downloading operating system upgrade

    Lost my 2 books after Op Sys update.How do I get them back?

    Go to the Purchased tab - in Collections - in the iBooks app and download them again. You will not be charged again as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought them with.

  • Lost my USB connections after 10.4.11 upgrade

    Quite frustrating this. When I went through the 10.4.9 to .10 I lost the ability to access my external HD for some reason. Through these very useful discussions I got that back by using Pacifist and something else I can't remember - but pretty much by reinstalling the drivers from .9
    I should have figured something would go wrong with the recent upgrade to .11, but it's worse this time. Now I can't access my printer or my scanner or my external HD. At first I thought my USB hub (Belkin 7-way) was playing up, but I don't think so now - it loads memory sticks across each port ok.
    I've tried resetting with just the keyboard, mouse and printer plugged in, but no joy. Same with scanner. Still no luck with alternative leads.
    On System Profiler I can see the printer and scanners connected, but however I try to get them to do anything, I get messages saying they're not connected.
    Any help much appreciated!

    Welcome to Discussions, habcrew!
    If I understand correctly, you're booting your iMac in Tiger from the external (Seagate) HD using Firewire, not USB.
    If that is correct, how was OS X Tiger installed onto the external HD? (If your issue involves Leopard, I'm not yet using it, therefore this entire post might not apply.)
    It would have have been necessary to have cloned ("restored" via Disk Utility located on the original Install DVD, while booted from the Install DVD) (or cloned via SuperDuper, CCC, or some other) OS X from the iMac's internal HD onto the external HD. The external Seagate should have first been formatted by Disk Utility located either on the iMac or on the Install DVD. Use "Options" button on Disk Utility's "Erase" panel to zero the Seagate prior to format would be best.
    Performing all subsequent Software Updates upon the cloned OS X will have to be done while the iMac is booted from the Seagate. Or optionally, the cloning of the entire iMac internal HD could be repeated at will at any time after updated, or could be incrementally updated from the internal by using other than Disk Utility (such as above mentioned SuperDuper or CCC).
    HTH. Never having used Boot Camp, I'm sorry to say I don't know what to say about that part of the issue.

    Because, As one of the friends out here mentioned, All my apps are lost after I upgraded to
    Nokia N79 11.049 RM-348 from Nokia care centre  :-((
    Can Nokia do anything abt this? I have seen across the net, that many users have complain abt the same pblm..
    Before the software update, I couldnt configure the email, but after I did, now I lost, all the apps installed in my phone..
    I hope I should have done the backup.. Among that apps, I believe oxford was useful for me...
    But any one please help me to restore those apps

    here are some links, now i don't know if this is what you are looking for or if they are free. and yes you have to reinstall yours apps unless you did a back up which you did not. reinstall nokia maps, share online and such you can find it either here
    http://betalabs.nokia.com/betas
    or on regular nokia site for you region/country to see what else you might be missing. sorry i know this is not what you want to do but this is the only way you can restore apps on your phone.

  • Recover lost photos and videos after 7.1.1 upgrade fail

    Hi,
    I updated my Ipad mini this morning to 7.1.1, and after it failed to update, I tried to install again, after which it went into recovery mode. It looks like the last successful cloud backup was 6 months ago, so I have lost 6 months of photos and videos of my young baby.
    Photo stream was turned on, so my question is - can I recover the lost photos/videos from photostream somehow?
    Some feedback for Apple: fix your upgrade process, and if there is even an outside possibility that it will remove all my photos and videos as part of the update, make doing a full backup before the update mandatory.
    Thanks,
    Craig
    I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

  • I lost all my contacts after doing the iOS5 upgrade.

    I have an iphone 3Gs and upgraded it to iOS 5 over the weekend. After the upgrade - everything was there apart from my contacts. I tried all the usual suggestions relating to switching icloud on and off etc but nothing worked. Finally decided to do a restore from backup, but the only backup iTunes shows is from after I did the iOS 5 upgrade. What happened to all the backups from prior to upgrade? I know it backed up before the upgrade, but now that one is missing?? Is there anyway to retrieve previous backups in iTunes?? Is devastating to lose all my contacts.... Any help would be appreciated!!

    If you have your contacts in Outlook or Address Book you should be able to sync them back.  If you only had them on your phone, and if you backed up your iPhone by syncing with iTunes before you went to the Apple store, you might be able to extract your contacts from this old backup using 3rd party software such as: http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/.

    Download the utility from the following link:

    Install and then run the utility. Find any iTunes entries in the list of programs in CleanUp. select each iTunes entry and click remove.

  • HT4623 My iPad 3 has lost the speaker sound after updating to iOS 6.1, headphones are working fine

    My iPad 3 has lost the speaker sound after updating to iOS 6.1, headphones are working fine. Please help me out, done all the troubleshooting like restarting, side switcing, cleeaning the headphone jack etc.,

    Hi I also have this problem. Sound was only working on the headphones and also on the volume slider in the settings app. Everywhere else I get no sound and no volume slider. Now the headphones don't work either.
    (I'm using an ipad 2 iOS 6.1.2) 
    And NO it's not muted. I've reset all settings and restarted the iPad. Been searching forums for a couple days. Some say its a dirty docking port problem, others suggest a Skype or other app update that could be the problem.
    No volume control icon appears when I press the volume control buttons. Only says sound effects, if it says anything at all. Most often there is NO volume icon. YouTube, video, music, and other game apps, no sound.

  • URGENT: I lost the Lion Partition after repairing the Windows 7 partition

    URGENT: I lost the Lion Partition after repairing the Windows 7 partition
    I have recent bought a new Macbook Pro and then I start doing all the necessary setup. This is the first time I do such setup with bootcamp myself anyway.
    1st: normal MacOS setup, the Lion version has been setup perfectly.
    2nd: run the bootcamp and setup the Windows 7, done perfectly as well.
    3rd: try to partition and resize the harddrive with the Lion installed and create 2 new FAT partitions (now 4 partitions in total: 1 for Lion, Journaled, 1 for Windows 7 in NTFS, 2 for file sharing purposes in FAT). See if I can have better partitioning to do necessary organisations.
    4th: When I want to restart in Windows to see if the newly created 2 FAT partitions can be read in Windows environment and can function norally, the Windows setup does not show at the start up page when I hold the "Option" key during the startup. I then try to restart again, still no such partition but boot directly to Lion.
    5th: I tried to repair the Windows 7 with the start up disc and then it worked. I can also see the 2 newly partitioned FAT drive work normally.
    6th: When I want to restart in Lion, I cannot boot the Lion OS and I cannot find the start up icon on the startup page even with me holding the "Option" Key.
    7th: "MacOS Installation Utility" appears. I tried to repair but cannot as I have neither the Lion setup disc with me (coz the Lion has been pre-installed) nor a time machine backup/ any other backup image to load from.
    8th: Tried to "erase and install a new copy of Lion", the partition where the Lion has been previously installed cannot be shown, now indicate itself as "freespace" and not able to be selected for my "erase and reinstall" process.
    9th: so I go to 2 other FAT drives to do as the instructions to try "erase" and hope the "reinstall" process can be started. But the Disk Utility ends up saying the drive cannot be dismounted/ cannot verfy...
    At the end of the many tries, I tried to shut the computer down and restart again, hopefully something will work still.... the startup page now shows a disk image with ?, I guess NO OPERATION system/ drive detected for booting. So I got a piece of metals without any use now...
    Anybody help? Thanks alot!!

    In Windows, go to Control Panel -> System. Do you see a Boot Camp option? If you do not, please download BC drivers as appropriate for you specific Mac year/model System requirements to install Windows on your Mac via Boot Camp - Apple Support
    and Boot Camp: Install or repair Boot Camp drivers.

  • Lost 10.6.8. after a hard drive failure!

    I lost 10.6.8. after a hard drive failure, can only update to 10.5.8? What are my options?
    Thanks,
    Amir

    10.6.8 was the last update to Snow Leopard (10.6).  Snow Leopard was never available as a download.  After Snow Leopard is installed from the retail DVD, updates from the base install to the most current (10.6.8) are available as free downloads through software update (or a combo update).  You will need to purchase the retail version of Snow Leopard. 

  • I have lost my itunes library after updating it and keep getting a message saying MSVCR80.dll is not installed when I try to uninstall/reinstall it???

    I have lost my itunes library after updating it. Have tried uninstalling/reinstalling it and it gets so far then tells me that it cannot be installed because MSVCR80.dll is not installed on my pc. I have no idea what this is and have googled it, followed links to sites that say they can fix it, only for them to scan, tell me I have 3 thousand issues and then want me to pay $30 dollars to fix it for me. This message also appears on firing up my pc too.
    Can anyone help please?

    I've been through the exact same thing and cannot seem to get an answer here. When you go to Manage Storage, does it have something at the top like "19.1 GB of 25 GB available"? I only have a Mail account with 5.3 GB in it and a Backups account with 553 MB in it. Obviously, these don't add up to 19.1 GB. There was no change in any of these numbers when I deleted all the same files you mention. With the free Mobile Me storage expiring next month, this is something I'm pretty concerned about.

  • I lost all my bookmarks,after switching to 3.5 silent how can i get them back?

    i lost all my bookmarks,after switching to 3.5 silent how can i get them back?

    Clarification:
    I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
    If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure.

    You mean the Apple Mail app? Updated through software Update in the Apple Menu?.
    Or maybe you downloaded Mail from another source?
    Do you still have Snow Leopard or didn't you update your profile?
