My ibook G4 display greys out after a few seconds, clicking on the screen returns it to normal.

My ibook G4 display greys out after a few seconds, clicking on the screen returns it to normal functioning.  I have adjusted the delay times before the computer goes to sleep to no avail, so I'm thinking this issue stems from something else.

Have you tried resetting the PMU? The PMU (Power Management Unit) has control over the sleep function, so resetting it may help if the iBook is sleeping unexpectedly.

  • TS3274 when i go into an app,i get kicked out after a few seconds.

    everytime that i try to go into an app,I always get kicked out after a few seconds of being in an app.

    Reset 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.
    Or Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • I downloaded an album recently, but I guess my internet was going in and out the whole time, and now 5 of the 14 songs will cut out after a few seconds.  How can I re-download those few songs?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    Before beginning the download, try temporarily disabling the antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required and is running with that secure OS.

  • Itunes samples are cutting out after a few seconds

    When I sample a song recently, it cuts out after 10-15 seconds instead of the usual 1:30.
    Did I adjust my settings somehow or is this a systems issue?
    I have tried re-loading Itunes into the latest version, but the problem continues.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    thanks Rob but can you provide more info? Do you know where I can find this folder on Windows 7? I checked with the local Helpdesk in my company but they would like more info
    Also, is there any help page that gives details such as this?
    thanks again

  • I have downloaded a CD from iTunes onto my matchbook pro but the first three songs cut out after a few seconds? Help!

    I have downloaded a CD from iTunes onto my Macbook pro but the first three songs cut out after a few seconds? Help!

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.

  • HT1339 my ipod nano 7th generation....works fine as long as it's on the docking station. when off the station, the display goes dark after a few seconds. it's fully charged. please help. this is the heartbeat of my business. thanks

    my ipod nano 7th generation....works fine as long as it's on the docking station. when off the station, the display goes dark after a few seconds. it's fully charged. please help. this is the heartbeat of my business. thanks

    In the worst case, it's still under warranty (all 7th gen nanos are still under one year from purchase).
    So, you disconnect it from power, and it almost immediately goes dead?  You can try a Restore... but it doesn't sound like the type of problem a Restore will fix.
    You should probably have it looked by Apple Tech Support.  If there's an Apple Store nearby, you can take it to the store's Genius Bar.  To avoid waiting, you can make a reservation at the store's web page

    Does Firefox switch to full screen if you press F11 ?
    You can also try the F10 key to see if that brings up the menu bar.

  • Rollover Sidelet disappears after a few seconds even when the mouse hasn't left the "hit area."

    Rollover Sidelet disappears after a few seconds even when the mouse hasn't left the "hit area." There is enough text in the sidelet that the user cant read it all before it disappears on its own. Then they have to move their mouse off the hit area and back on it to see it for another 5 seconds. How do I fix this?

    You should tell which version you are using. If you are on CP7 or earlier, look in the Properties panel of the slidelet, not the slidelet area (that is the rollover area, blue rectangle): change time in Timing accordion.
    If you are on CP8, for the same object (slidelet)  change its time in the Timing panel that is now no longer in the Properties panel.

  • When on some website pages, the page disappears after a few seconds and a blank screen appears.

    When clicking on a link in some web pages (AARP in this case), the web page loads in a separate tab, and after a few seconds the page is replaced by a blank page and the word "done" appears on the second from the bottom bar on the screen.
    I have updated Windows XP as of 9/15/10 and Firefox to version 3.5.12, but the problem persists.

  • ICloud on PC logging me out after a few seconds!?

    For the last few weeks, iCloud on my PC keeps logging me out by "force", suddenly, only after a few seconds of being logged in.  This happens only when I access iCloud from my PC and not with my MacBook Pro.  Any ideas???
