My G5 doesn't make the Chiming noise  when I restart it.

My G5 doesn't make the Chiming noise anymore when I restart it. I also noticed that the light blinks in frequency of 3 flashes, so I removed one of the RAMs based on the instructions listed in the manual. Now it only flashes once periodically everytime I restart it.

You need to reinstall that module or replace it. A Power Mac G5 won't recognize RAM which isn't part of a matching pair.

  • Why does the iPad make the same noise when it connects to a charger that doesn't charge it as one that will charge it???

    Why does the iPad make the same noise when it connects to a charger that doesn't charge it as one that will charge it???
    I would expect that it would make an unusual noise if plugged into a generic USB charger that does not have enough oomph to charge a pad to alert you - otherwise, you might think the noise is reassuring that you are actually charging it.

    I guess my question was actually more of a comment on the (lack of) design!  It is unusual that something like this would still be in an Apple product.  There are wall chargers that have a USB port on them that do not have the required oomph to charge the iPad.  I have one that has two USB ports, one for my iPhone  (it won't charge an iPad), and one for an iPad with greater amperage rating.  I accidentally used the wrong ones for a while yesterday, but noticed before being "surprised" the next morning by an uncharged iPad.  The iPad is smart enough to say "Not charging" by the battery icon when it is plugges in to one of these, so it "knows" - seems like it would be fairly simply to have the iPad make a different or additional noise  wehn it puts up the "Not charging" text icon.  Failsafe user experience?

  • My macbook pro makes that ejecting noise when i open it but not every time usually when i ve been away for awhile then take it out of sleep it makes the noise is this normal?

    Hi ive had my macbook pro for a week or so and when i open after its been in sleep mode for quite a while it will usually make that ejecting noise. It doesnt make the ejecting noise evreytime i open it just sometimes. Is this normal HELP

    Yes, it's normal.
    Apple released a firmware update a couple of years ago that was supposed to stop the drive from making that noise in certain models that were available then, but even the update didn't work all the time. The noise is completely harmless and not indicative of any problem. Just ignore it.

  • My new iPhone 6 plus just went to a black screen and will not turn back on. If you hit the home button for siri to come on it still works, and if you plug it into the wall it makes the vibrate noise. The screen just won't turn on.

    I was looking up a song on the internet, and my internet was being slow, so i was going to the settings to turn internet/wifi off so i could use data. When i did that the screen just went completely black. I didnt know what happened so i plugged it into a circuit into the wall to see if it needed charging. It made the buzz noise when i plugged it into the charger, and siri still works if you hold the home button down. I don't know what to do to get it to turn back on... If anyone knows what to do please help. thanks !

    Hey there Maggie,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The article linked below provides troubleshooting tips that can help you resolve the blank black screen issue with your iPhone 6 Plus.
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If you see a solid color screen (black, white or blue)
    Plug in your device to a power source. If you see the low-battery screen when you plug in, let your device charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad) before using it.
    Reset your device while it's plugged in.
    If resetting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Cheers,

  • None of my addons or extentions work any more since installing 3.6.6. When I go Tools/Add-ons it just goes 'ding' [makes an error noise] when I click on any oth the options and then firefox freezes up.

    None of my addons or extentions work any more since installing 3.6.6. When I go Tools/Add-ons it just goes 'ding' [makes an error noise] when I click on any of the options and then firefox freezes up and I have to go to the task manager to shut firefox down.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == when i updated to 3.6.6

    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

    Click here for information; if the computer beeps three or fewer times, remove and reinsert the computer's RAM. If it beeps four or more times, it needs to be repaired. If it's a G5, it will ignore RAM modules that aren't part of a matching pair.

  • I have lost the swish noise when I bin my emails how do Iget it back

    I have lost the swish noise when sending emails to trash or bin, how do I get it back?

    You do not hear the sound when you send an email to the trash. There is not sound at all. If you mean that you lost the sound when you send an email....
    Check Settings>Sounds>Sent Mail>Swoosh and make sure it is on. If that checks out, you may have muted system sounds.
    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • My dvd drive makes an awful noise when inserting dvd, I have a macbook PRo

    My dvd drive makes an awful noise when inserting a dvd. Does that means it needs to be replaced?

    It's more like a grinding sound. I was trying to convert  the dvd with Mpeg Streamclip when it started , After that I tried with Handbrakes and got the same sound. I gave it  a rest and inserted another dvd and it was fine. Now I don't know what to do, looks like the drive is ok..

  • When trying to upload a MS word file (.docx) to gmail, it uploads into a folder that doesn't contain the original document when i try to download it from e-mail.  how do i solve this?

    when trying to upload a MS word file (.docx) to gmail, it uploads as a 'folder' that doesn't contain the original document when i try to download it back from the e-mail.  how do i set the format to simply upload the document itself???  Thanks...

    Yes, excuse me. attach a file.  I have separate folders on my desktop to organize my word documents, so I'm guessing this might be a part of the problem.  When I go to attach one of these documents into gmail, the resulting attachment is another folder icon (not the original organizational folders) with 4 subfolders containing a slew of .xml files reading things like "header.xml" "format.xml" "settings.xml" "style.xml" "contenttype.xml" There are also a few .jpegs and a small folder reading "word" as one of the subfolders.

  • How do I make the stage transparent when published?

    Hi. I'm new to flash and want to work towards making 2D animations.
    I want to take a simple published animation and put it into SONY VEGAS. However, I only want the character (I've created a symbol for it) and not the big white stage. My goal is to get the animated character on top of all my sony vegas layers, but the stage is blocking all the other layers. Is there some kind of setting that can make the stage transparent when publishing as a SWF?

    hi
    you need to add some markup to your html:
    add <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> to your <object> tag and add wmode="transparent" to the <embed> tag
    the feature isn't supported by all browsers and it may cause your swf to slow down a bit if there's a lot going on visually.

  • TS3297 I don't get an error message. the thing just hangs up or doesn't show the store and when I go to listen to a song it found,it won't play it or allow me to purchase songs.

    My ITunes doesn't show an error message,it just doesn't show the store and when I can search and it finds the song,I can't play it or buy it.

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    I updated my iphone to iOS 6.0.1but it doesn't show the contacts names when calling or receiving calls. What to do?

    This may be an error caused by the update. You can try to sync your contact information with iCloud and backup the rest of your data and then restore the device and see if it starts to work normally again.
