New intern. drive - error code post/0/2048/s0dimm0/j25lower

I replaced my broken harddive and loaded the startup disks successfully. Then my lovely wife asked me why I didn't load her new Macbook pro(Leopard) startup disks instead...didn't know it was illegal...however here I am re-loading the G4 disk but get the error above, the extended tests pass, is there anything I can do besides buying another laptop?

Hi again, mcquitty. You shouldn't even consider spending $500-1000 to repair your Powerbook. Its market value in good working order is well under $1000 and possibly under $500 now, depending on exactly which model you have. So you might be able to replace it with an equivalent used Powerbook in working condition for less than repairing it would cost, and whatever you invest to fix it isn't going to be recoverable on resale if you do repair it. If you want it repaired, have Wegener repair the RAM slot on your existing logic board for $250.
Test each RAM module in the upper slot, with the lower slot empty, by trying to start up from your Mac OS X 10.3 installer CD or DVD. If you are able to do so, open Disk Utility from the Installer menu and format your hard drive according to Kappy's instructions. Then install Panther. You are now out of the woods with respect to the hard drive problem.
If you can't start the machine with either RAM module in the upper slot, then retiring the PB may be the best option. For $999 you can buy a brand-new MacBook that will run rings around the PB.

EMac Error Code: Post 16/2048 DIMM0/J1600

I had a power failure while using my computer. Since then the computer has been running very erratic. It wouldn't start up and it didn't recognize my external HD which I have been using since I bought the computer. I erased the HD, then I installed the Restore Disk 10.1. Then I installed 10.2. Then I reinstalled 10.4 and did all of the software updates. Its still running crazy. But it did mount my external HD which I was able to copy files to a DVD disk. I ran disk utility to verify the disk it said the disk was damaged. I ran Disk Repair from the 10.4 install disk. It said disk couldn't be repaired. I ran Disk Warrior and rebuilt the directory. I ran the Disk Utility and verify disk. It said disk was ok. I had a hard time getting Disk Warrior to run. It kept hanging up or step 6 (rebuilding an optimized directory) but I finally got i t to run. In the meantime I can't mount my external HD. I checked my system profile under diagnostics it said:
Failed
Failure Type: memory
Memory slot: DIMM0/J1600
I then checked the memory info and it said:
DIMM0/J1600 256 MB SDRAM PC133U-333 OK
DIMM0/J1601 128 MB SDRAM PC133U-333 OK
If the diagnostics said their was a memory problem why does the memory info say the memory is OK? I also ran Apple Hardware Test prior to reinstalling OS. The results said:
Error Code: Post 16/2048 DIMM0/J1600 - but everything else passed and this message was at the bottom of the result page.
My question is if I replace the DIMM0/J1600 256 mb memory stick even though the system profiler says its OK will that solve my problem. Thanks for any help that can e given - Frank

Mm.
When you pulled the RAM out - did you try pulling both out, or just 1?
Reason being, maybe it's the RAM... but maybe it's the RAM slot that's at fault.
In terms of cost effectiveness, eBay is basically the best option for RAM (assuming you are comfortable buying from there). If you buy from a RAM dealer/computer store you'll pay a fair bit more.
Another option would be computer markets in your area (if there are any). Check Apple's website for the specifications that your model eMac needs.
If it is the RAM slot itself, then new RAM wont help - but you could then look at re-selling the new RAM and recovering your costs, before buying a new computer.

What is error code "post/16/2048 DIMM0/J22"?

What is error code "post/16/2048 DIMM0/J22"?
I'm thinking that may be why my startup sound isn't working

Using An iMac G4 (Flat Screen)

If you open up the machine and look, I suspect you will see that the slot is NOT empty. It is failing the power on self test, so the machine is not using it.
You can try opening the cover and then removing and reseating the memory. This might work, but probably not.
Other world computing is an excellent source for RAM and other mac upgrades.

I recommend looking over there, and adding some more memory is always a good idea IMO.
Good Luck,

Error Code Post/0/2048 DIMM3/J14

I'm trying to fingure out what this error code means when I ran the hardware test the message came us error code "Post/0/2048 DIMM3/J14
It indiacted I may have to reformat the media? I have also lost the CD needed to reformat. Anyone konow what the error code is and where I can get another CD?
Thanks

It would appear that you have a problem with one of your ram chips. Try changing the chips and run the test again. See HERE. This is the Aluminum Powerbook forum are and you might get more expert help on your G5 Dual over in that forum area. Never, never lose your OS installer CD/DVD. That should be in the vault. You may try to contact AppleCare to see if they can help you get another one.

What is error code post/0/2048?

2005 G5 20" iMac. Bought from apple with two 1 gb ram cards. (One Samsung, one ZK: I wonder why apple doesn't send matched pairs of ram...?) System Profiler always read these two ram cards as two single 1gb cards: one in each of my two slots. Now system profiler reads 512mb in each of the two slots. I swapped the two 1gb cards and put them in the slot the other came out of and the computer would not start. Just went bong, bong, bong bong. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated ,

Did you return them to their original slots, and try a reset of the PRAM?
And/or also see if a reset of power management controller does anything.
It is possible that some aspect of the logic board has failed, so as to
no longer correctly recognize the RAM. How long has it been since
the PRAM or clock battery has been replaced? Some start issues
occur when the battery goes dead.
There could be a problem elsewhere in the computer, but without a way
to test the RAM separate from the G5 iMac, that is a continuing question.
Did you test the computer with an Apple Hardware Test?
May not work without functional RAM, if they're at fault.
If a reseller upgraded the RAM after original build, to a higher capacity,
they may have put two equal spec RAM chips inside, not same maker.
So if they've been working several years w/o issue until now, they may
not be the cause of the symptom. But they could be.
The original RAM chips may have a warranty (samsung would) so that
aspect of inconvenience could get you replacement part(s) if they're bad.
Usually three-startup beeps means bad RAM... You indicate Four-beeps.
{Three beeps would be an easier fix: try other memory chips}

If the Mac were not so old, a visit to an Apple Store genius may help. Yet
now, to talk to a Specialist at an Apple Store or an independent authorized
Apple service expert may be of help. Whether or not it's worth shop time.
If a genius appointment and diagnostic could help discover cause of error,
to see if an Apple Store with Genius bar near you will talk to you about it
may be at least some momentum. Not sure if a power supply or other failed
component (capacitors?) may affect how this architecture reacts.

Hardware error code post/0/2048

Hi,
Has anyone seen this code?
I appreciate any info on this
Sincerely,
Steve

Asher
thanks for responding!
It reassured the decision I made last week.
I had just installed 1GB of Ram and sometimes it showed up in the About this computer and sometimes it didn't.
SO I took it back exchanged it for another brand, installed it and ran the hardware check, no problems and my iBook recognizes it!
Thanks again

I dropped my mac pro. The disc drive plays but will not record. medium drive error. How hard is it to replace the drive my self. i see screws on the bottom. Could I just order a new internal drive and replace it? Or is it too complicated for the average ?

I dropped my mac pro. The disc drive plays but will not record. medium drive error. How hard is it to replace the drive my self. i see screws on the bottom. Could I just order a new internal drive and replace it? Or is it too complicated for the average person? Would be cheaper to buy an external drive than to replace internal one? Any advice is appreciated

How certain are you the superdrive ONLY is at fault?
That depends on your skill level, if you grew up tearing things apart and putting them together, its absurd how easy it is.
For some however its too daunting. On a general skill level for the "average" person its about a 3 out of 10 in difficulty.
Can you order same? yes.

Could not see my photos after Installing new internal drive

Aaarrgghhh! I installed a new internal drive to keep data separate from applications, transferred all the data to the new drive and now all the work I did in sorting thousands of photos has gone, same with iTunes. Does anytone know how to restore my categories of photos and tunes?
thanks

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff: What version of iPhoto. What version of the Operating System. Details. What were you doing when the problem arose? Did it ever work properly? Step-by-step descriptions of how you got to this issue. If something doesn't work, are there error messages? What happens when you try to do this thing? And what steps have you tried already to solve the issue. With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that a helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

Error code post/16/64?

I've been having recurring problems with my G4.
Symptoms:
2nd internal hard drive warning such as prompting an error message of 'you must initialize, ignore, eject' then I re-boot, other times a prohibit sign, spinning rainbows, kernel panics. It's a mess.
This only happens on start up after shutting down for the night. But I think I've made things worse
I ran suggested back-ups, PRAM resets, ran cocktail, tried disk utility from start up, ran disk warrior from start up, it found some file errors, cleaned them up. Cloned my system using Superduper, backed the hd up on a NewerTech.
Next day, start up issues again.
I ran memtest, and that found nothing. Start up from install disc, ran disk utility, everything's passing, SMART status is verified.
But it is still not operating correctly. I still have start up issues.
This has been going on for at least a week.
I ran AHT twice. The first time all tests passed. I didn't believe it.
So I ran it again and I received the following:
error detection at the logic board:
error code: scc_/1/5 (I think this is a non-apple board warning)
error code: post/16/64.
What?
My internal HD (original) is running at 85% (60g)
My second internal is 120g partitioned with mostly back-ups (not the only back up) and documents.
Thank you to all the folks who've generously posted in the past and thank you in advance for the one that catches this.

The POST/16/64 points to an error on your processor board, bad cache memory. I had this same error, still have the processor on a shelf actually, and it took me months to find the code translation.
Apple says for a POST/16/xx error
1. replace processor board
2. replace main logic board
I don't know if there is a heat issue that causes this, but, several cases that I have heard of had systems that ran very hot.
A fellow in Singapore mentioned that he had the same error and believes that the heat causes the external cache chips on the 7455 processor board to loosen(I think your Gigadesigns is a 7447 based chip). He stated that he heated his chips and resolved the error:
"The cache are DDR type samsung BGA chips. This is most difficult as both sits directly opp each other. The only way I think is to heat the chip on 1 side below 220degC(removal at 350degC and soldering in at 300degC). Best if you can get a heater blower and blow at the small gap bet chip and processor board, very tiny clearance, less than 1mm. You can give it a try for the time being, on the chip itself though not the most ideal."
If there are other numbers at the end, ie POST/16/xx yyyy then it is likely a RAM problem or RAM slot problem
1. reseat DIMMs
2. replace DIMMS
3. replace main logic board
Hope this helps, I ended up replacing my processor and as I stated before still have the originalon a shelf. I may try the heat trick one day though.

Backing up images on external hard drive and restoring to new internal driv

I recently purchased a new external hard drive and a new internal hard drive. Before installing the new internal drive, I backed up the old internal drive on the external drive. Then I installed the new internal drive to my Macbook Pro. However, when I tried to access and print my Aperture images on the new internal drive, I received an error message saying "versions with unavailable master images cannot be printed." I clicked on 'show referenced files," but couldn't determine how to recover my master images. I checked the forum and under "referenced files go offline after restore from a backup" it said to go to "File>manage referenced files" but nothing else. How can I recover my master images? Please help - I have nearly 6000 images that are lost without recovering the master images. And no, I was ultra stupid in not placing everything in a vault = but I'm relatively new to Mac OS and thought a backup would be sufficient. Thank!

The volume name of the new hard drive needs to be the same as the old hard drive - rename it if you have to - then they should be fine.
If you cannot seem to make this work then you will have to reconnect them with locate referenced files under the file menu. Select all the files that are disconnected before going into the dialog.

OS 10.3.9 and adding a new internal drive

Hi -
I have a G5 1.8ghz Dual with the original 80gig hard drive.
I would like to add a new internal drive. After reading post I like the WD SE16 500 GB sata drive.
Do I have to upgrade to OS 10.4? I know I should but do I have to do this first. Also can I boot off the WD Drive.

Great drive. No OS limitation. It does work. There was one 400GB model a year or two ago that would not work in early G5s. The 500GB model is fine.
Check out http://www.xlr8yourmac.com
OWC also has Maxtor 300GB MaxLine III $73 if you want a couple smaller and less expensive.
I think 10.4.9 is nice and good time to upgrade.

I am migrating to a new iMac via TimeMachine back up. My iPhoto libraries are on external drive. I'd like to migrate only the internal hard drive data to the new internal Drive then just plug in iPhoto library drive. Is this going be a problem?

I am migrating to a new iMac via TimeMachine back up. My iPhoto libraries are on an external drive. Both drives are backed up on Time Machine. I'd like to migrate only the old internal hard drive data to the new internal Drive and then just plug in iPhoto library drive to the new iMac. This would save having to transfer several hundred GBs of data. Will this work using Set Up Assistant?

Your user account on the new Mac must have a different UID than on the old one. See the pink box in Problems after using Migration Assistant for an explanation.
You'll need to change the permissions on the iPhoto library on the external HD. Do a Get Info on it, click the padlock at the bottom of the Sharing & Permissions section of the Info window and enter your Admin password.
Then click the plus sign, select the user account you want on the next screen, and click Select. Then change Read only to Read & Write for that user via the little arrows. Finally, click the "gear" icon and select Apply to enclosed items. That may take a few mintutes on a large library.

File Sender - Internal driver error

Hi,
I am having a file to RFC scenario.
The file can have size varying from 5 to 15 MB.
We are getting an error in the sender channel, while picking the file.
Error text: Could not insert message into database. Reason: java.sql.SQLException Internal driver error. (Pipe closed)
Kindly help in solving the issue.
Thanks,
John

Hi Raja,
Smaller files of 5 MB can be processed.
(After it is coverted from text format into XML in communication channel, it gets roughly five times the original text file size. That means that the XML message will have size of 25 MB in XI.)
The text file which is giving the error has got a size of 19 MB.
I have tried to use 'record per message' option. Given a value of 100 there. Totally there are 500 records.
But I am seeing the message in the communication chennel log like given below.
"Send binary file "cost_report.dat" from ftp server "6.23.43.6:/Information/ERP/upload/", size 83981954 bytes with QoS EO"
From this I am concluding that file is not getting split according to 'recordset per message' settings. XI is trying to read the entire file.
Why is the this setting not working?
Or will XI split the file all at once and after that only the split happens?
Kindly help.
Thanks,
John

When i connect my iphone to the computer, win 7 i get the mtp driver error (Code 31).

When i connect my iphone to the computer, win 7 i get the mtp driver error (Code 31).
I must mention that connecting the phone and accesing it as a camera worked before but at some point it didn't and i keep recieving this mtp driver error. I tried everything including deleting registry entries, reinstalling multiple times, use the log administrators command in cmd, i don't have a pass on my phone, nothing worked so far. Any help would be apreciated.

Yes I did.. Everything is ready. Just when I plug the cable into the phone and the computer nothing will happen.. When I plug it into our "business" laptop immediately it will show that it is connected... With this laptop I am using now, nothing happens..
