My Mac G5 got stock when I was updating my Mac OS X and now dosent respond

Mac OS X 10.4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

If the HDD is not physically damaged, you can repair it using your Snow Leopard install disk.  Start the MBP with the SL disk (hold down the C key) and when you see a menu bar on top of the display, select Utilities and the select Disk Utility and repair the disk.
If that fails, you can get a new HDD from a variety of sources.  Newegg, Amazon and OWC are some of the suppliers.  The cost will be a function of capacity.  It should be less that $100.  Make certain that it is a 2.5", 9.5 mm SATA HDD.
Ciao.

    Not clear just what you are seeing - does the iPhone screen show the USB cable pointing to iTunes?  If that is what you are seeing then it has entered the recovery mode and has to be restored by following the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • My 160gb ipod classic messed up today when I was ejecting it from the computer and now when I turn it on a red x comes up telling me to go to support. It also is making a weird clicking noise... Any help?????

    Hi! my ipod broke today after I tried to sync it. There is a red error message on the screen and it makes an obnoxious clicking. Any help??

    i've had this same problem on my 30 gig 5th generation. about a year ago, i had the same problem, called Apple support, they wanted me to pay about $100 to fix it with no guarantee that it would work. I left it alone for a long time (months), charged it up again, clicked it on and it worked. Just a few days ago, I got the clicking sound again. I don't recommend this but, after pushing the menu and center buttons simultaneously and trying to charge the Ipod, I finally whacked it between my hands a few times and it stopped clicking. I charged it, then plugged it in to my computer. I got an error message "1437", which they recommend restoring the IPod to the factory settings. This wiped out all the stuff stored on my device. Now, I have to figure out how to get the stuff back on and avert the 1437 error message.

  • Help! i was downloading the new v 4.3.4, when it was almost over it sorta crashed, and now i can't open my itouch! when i try to turn it on, the screen says to connect it to itunes(i have the latest version), but it just won't! this is crazy T_T

    idk what to do!! i've tried temporarily turning off my security software, but my itouch still wouldn't come up in m itunes!

    - First try resetting the iPod to make it visible in iTunes
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next try placing the iPod in recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Last try placing the iPod in DFU mode:

  • Software was updated today at Apple Store, and now can't access photos and videos in iPhoto

    I brought my iMac into the apple store today as I was having issues with programs freezing.  They wiped everything clean, reinstalled my programs and updated me to the current version of OS.  After I transferred my info back in from my back up hard drive, I went into iPhoto to check to make sure everything was ok.  I got a message stating that I had to update iPhoto to work with the current software to be able to view/use pics.  I clicked ok, and everything updated.  When I now go to iPhoto, all of the events are labeled correctly, but all but 2 are black with no key photo (even though I designate one).  Basically, the screen is all black with all the blank black event squares.  As I scroll down, the key photos will appear for 1 second, and then disappear.  When I go into the event, I see all of the photos very small, and when I try to enlarge them or click on them to edit or view, I get a triangle with an exclamation point in the middle of it.  When I click on any movie/video, I get a message saying that "the movie contains an invalid data reference".  I have about 8,000 photos.
    What is going on and how can I fix this?????

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • My Safari was updated to 5.1.9 and now it won't open - help!

    Safari updated itself a few days ago and was working fine up until this morning.  Now I click on it, it bobs up and down once or twice, but a browser window won't open.  Any suggestions for what I can do to fix it?? 

    Ideally - locate a crash report from Console application... look in Diagnostic & Usage Information - User Diagnostic Reports in the log list on the left & see if there's one for Safari dated today. If so, copy it & paste the contents here.

  • HT1430 I was updating to the new OS and now for some reason I have to reconnect to my computer......I am afraid it is going to do a system restore.........HELP!

    We were updating my son's iphone 4S to the new OS and now it is asking for us to reconnect to the computer........is it going to make us do a system restore?

    Looks that way...
    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • I have macbook pro   i got it from craiglist, when i was updating the oprating sestem its asking me for sestem unlocking pin? where can i get it from?

    i have macbook pro   i got it from craiglist, when i was updating the oprating sestem its asking me for sestem unlocking pin? where can i get it from?

    I would recommend wiping the system and reinstalling the OS for any used system. OS X does not have any "unlocking pin" of sorts so this may be from some third-party software on the system. The system does have a "firmware password" option that can be set to prevent booting to alternative boot environments (ie, external hard drives, safe mode, etc), but this will not prevent system updating.

  • When I was updating I Phone version 4  from iTunes. it got stuck in middle of updating, after uninstall the version 3 and new version 4 was not installed. Now iTunes is not detecting the iphone and my iphone is also not working n showing connection cable

    When i was updating i phone version 4 from Itunes. It got stuck in middle of updating, after uninstall the version3. But new version was not installed. Now itunes is not detecting the iphone and iphone is also not working and showing connection cable with itunes. Pls help..

    Check your system for possible Malware. But you have to do it in WIndows Safe Mode.
    (Do not use your own Anti-virus to SCAN)
    Start your computer in "Safe mode with networking", go to this link download a free version of Malwarebyte.
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    Install and perform update immediately, then do a full SCAN. Remove malware if it indeed finds any. Restart computer to regular windows to let Malwarebyte complete the removal.
    To start your computer in safe mode
    Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
    On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the "safe mode with networking" option, and then press Enter. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
    When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your screen. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.
