My daughter has an iBook G4. When you turn it on the wallpaper comes up but no toolbar or icons. It's just frozen and you can't do anything. Any tips out there?

Once the Desktop shows up, then it is started up as far as it will go.
If it doesn't progress, then something is definitely wrong.
Do you know the capacity of the hard drive and how much space remains available on it? Sometimes operating anomalies such as this can happen if the hard drive is too full.
Do you have access to another Mac with FireWire?

My iPhone 3Gs has frozen and I can't do anything except turn it off by hard boot. When I plug it in, I have the apple icon and that is all. It was at 43 percent battery life when it happened and my Twitter app was giving me problems. Thoughts?
Put it in recovery mode and restore it as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

Hi yesy
If you are sure you disabled your AV/antispy and you get the flash of a licence it sounds like you may have a malware infection. Look out for posts by b noir and get hold of ewido - its a free AV programme - google and you should find.
BTW, you may be in Florida and I'm in the UK, but don't shout - you're just next door in cyberspace!:) I understand your frustration coz I've been in your place. There are some really helpful folks on this forum - seek, and you shall find!

My system is dead and I can't get help. Anyone out there? Zen Jukebox x
My system strated having download faults, so like a good boy I reinstalled the software, installed the drivers, went into recuse mode. Now here I am three days later, still in rescue mode and I cna't even trun the thing off. The support by e-mail only told me what I had already doen to no avail. So I called the phone helpline (God only knows how much that cost me!) and they ran thru a couple of things and said there is no reason why is shoudln't work! HELLO-IT ISN'T WORKING!
Please help, I am about to trow the towel in on the peice of kit.
I have attempted all of the above both on a laptop and desktop.
It seems to me that the OS is lost and I can't get my PC/laptop to recognise the device to reinstall the OS, any suggestions
ThanksMessage Edited by Cyclesportster on 0-8-2005 :50 PMI'm afraid you're going to have to be a little more specific. Is it that the unit doesn't turn off, when you hold down the power button? Or that it won't go out of Rescue Mode? What options have you tried in Rescue Mode?

i am so tired. Have used many hours now to find a way to get my fotos from my Iphone to my PC'er (windows 7). I have downloaded Icloud, but I cannot aktivate "foto" When I click on icloud there comes a window, where it seems that I can click on foto. But within sekonds the 3. (foto) possibility freezes and the vindow sort of changes: You can still se the choice "Foto" but it cannot be activated. Can anyone help, please!
Thanks for the link to your system.
You have a Combination BluRay and Surround System that includes WIRELESS Rear Speakers:
Rear wireless ready: Yes, 5.1ch wireless system included, 7.1ch wireless option with purchase of SH-FX67 + SB-HS100A
This could account for why the BluRay is generating interference with your wireless network signal.
You can go thru the process of changing the wireless channels and other changes to the Verizon Actiontec Router or hook up your old router which was working before you switched to FIOS.
FIOS has a Superior Product over any cable system and I would hate to see you leave over something that was out of their control.
By the way, looking at the picture of the rear connections for your Panasonic you would want to have an Optical Toslink cable go from the back of the Verizon HD Set Top Box (Optical Out) to the Optical In jack on the back of the Panasonic. This connection will provide you with Dolby Digital sound (If Broadcast by Channel) while you are watching TV. You may need to switch inputs on the Panasonic Remote to get this to work. You may also have an Optical Out jack on the TV that could be connect as well if you are using an HDMI Cable.
Your Verizon STB would be connected to the TV by either HDMI, Component, Composet, or Coax (Highest Quality to Lowest Quality). The HDMI would also provide sound to your TV so that it's internal speakers would work if desired.

How do I make the retast sleep cancel shutdown option stop appearing every 30 seconds. If I am working on safari it doesn't happen but does in mail, when idle etc/ thanks in advacne for any suggetions, EireCowboy
A number of sleep-related issues can appear after incremental Mac OSX updates, including the inability to properly go to sleep, problems waking from sleep, and having your display go to sleep without your Mac going to sleep. The most common culprit is Bluetooth. Try these tips to fix your sleep problems.
WAKE UP
In System Preferences>Bluetooth, uncheck Allow Bluetooth Devices To Wake This Computer. If you are using a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, you'll have to wake your Mac by pressing the power button.
FILE CORRUPTION
Your Bluetooth preference file may be corrupt-you'll need to delete it. Turn Bluetooth off, then go to the /Users/user name/Library/Preferences folder. Look for a file called com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and trash it.The OS will create a new preference file when you enable Bluetooth again.
ENERGY SAVER
If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
-/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--
(username is your name or System Administrators name)
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
Yours would be the 10.4.7 Combo update. Others reading, download the combo update that applies to you!
Cheers!

My I pad 2 has completely frozen and I can't use it any ideas?
I went to use my Ipad tonight and it has frozen up on me. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do with it?
Thanks
sujaHopefully there will be. See this support article.

You can try this and see if it helps at all.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
Hi, I have just tried downloading the Facebook app, but the app store has frozen. It will not let me click on anything. Shall I try turning it all off and back on again? Or is there something else I need to do.
Thanks, RebeccaReboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Any one has a idea what can I do?
Connect iPhone to Wall Charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. Usually takes less than 20 seconds of holding both buttons.

Where can I find info regarding creation of ads for email posting to email distribution lists? I need to know what standard iMac app to use that saves to formats that are good for this purpose. Someone suggested Mac Pages. And, I'd like to know how to attach these to the email so that the receiver sees the ad in their email...no attachments to open. The receivers will be PC and Mac users. I will add a line at the top of the email message to change the format on their computer to HTML for viewing. Your tips and ideas will be most appreciated!
Hi viafax,

Keep getting a "loading/waiting" message when I try to download/update anything. Sometimes something will download. I have signed out and turned the thing off and back on, signed in and no help. I have did the sleep button and home button thing, no help. I have talked to iPad support and so far, no help. Any ideas out there?
If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
Cheers, Tom
