No Bluetooth even after PRAM and PMU resets, fully updated Leopard

Subject should explain pretty much everything. I reset the PRAM and PMU to try to get my Bluetooth back (it doesn't even appear in System Profiler). Still nothing. Leopard with all updates. Any suggestions, before I take it in?

Unlike the previous PowerBook G4 (15-inch Double-Layer SD), the AirPort Extreme and Bluetooth 2.0 functions are on separate cards.
If Bluetooth system preferences does not show up under Hardware system preferences...
1. Check for software/firmware updates on the web.
2. Check the Bluetooth card flex cable. Make sure the cable is not damaged and fully seated.
3. Check the hard drive flex to main logic board.
4. Replace the Bluetooth card.
5. Replace the hard drive flex.
6. Replace the logic board.

  • No enter sign after PRAM and PMU reset

    I have an ibook 900, 14 inch, which is having video problems,so I reset the PRAM and PMU and now it restarts to a blue screen with a '?' in a folder. I try to restart in target mode but my G5 will not "see" the ibook. I have tried the c and x start up procedures along with the O F command to get into openfirmware (which does let me enter "printevn, mac-boot"), but still after the chime at startup I now get the gray screen with the apple and spinning icon then the apple turns into a do not enter sign. Have I toasted the ibook? I have looked at many discussions, and followed many links, HELP!

    Do you have the original install disks? You might need to run the Apple Hardware Test. It sounds like the hard drive is no longer available. This could be due to either a hardware or software problem. You could test the hard drive with the AHT or test the file directories with the Disk Utility on the Mac OS X installer to figure out what's going on.

    Thanks for you response!  I have had it for about 5-6 years ... don't know if that is "vintage" or not.  I just got back from our local Geneis Bar and they declared it "DOA."  So, I've got a new one and getting ready to install.  Thanks, again!

  • My 2006 iMac running Snow Leopard won't boot even after erasing and re-installing Snow Leopard (via my MacBookPro), either from the HD or DVD drive.  Can't get it to run Hardware Test.  Disk Utility says disk OK - files are there. What can I do?

    My 2006 iMac running Snow Leopard won't boot even after erasing and re-installing Snow Leopard.   I erased and re-installed by putting the iMac in Target Disk mode and usin my MacBookPro as the host.  But after numerous attempts I still can't get it to boot either from the HD or DVD drive. I just get the white screen after the wheel stops spinning.  I can't get it to run Hardware Test - just get the white screen.  If I use Disk Utility via my MBP it says the disk appears OK. All the Snow Leopad files appear to have been installed. What can I do?

    Perhaps you installed the wrong version OS X onto the iMac, you can't use the disk from another Mac.
    clean the disk.
    If it's not working then use this method to create a bootable 10.6 USB from the iMac machine specific 10.6 disk or the 10.6.3 retail disk on your other Mac, use it to boot the iMac with.

    If you do not have, or remember, the passcode for Restrictions, the only option available to you is to reset the device to factory settings via itunes.

  • I have just updated to Yosemite, but now I can't get the custom shortkeys to work. In Mavericks I had no problem whatsoever, but now even after googeling and restart no solution. Does anyone have the problem? All the other shortcuts work!

    Hi Thomas,
    I can confirm the problem you are hitting. The XML test trace does not get recognized at all, and it defaults to Eclipse's basic Open File behaviour. I am not sure if it's because the format definition is missing, or if it's because something prevents the trace type from being recognized. I will open a bug about it.
    Thanks for identifying this issue!
    In the meantime, if you'd like to experiment with XML analyses, you can also take a look at the example at https://github.com/tracecompass/xml-analysis-example .
    Cheers,

  • I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer.

    I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets on the network have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer. Yet Network control panel says I am connect to the modem, and Network Diagnosis says I am connected to the Internet. It's like the blind man who has eyes that cannot see. BTW, I am not some newbee. I have been a Machead since the early nineties and set up a half dozen networks, including the one I am using at home to which the iMac mysteriously is there but not. This has me stumped! I am considering going back to 10.7!

    CS5.5 and OSX 10.9.4: Most applications will not launch even after uninstalling and reinstalling the Creative Suite 5.5. After my 2011 MacBook Pro 17 died, I had to purchase a new MacBook Pro 15 to replace it.  I performed a Time Machine installation from that 2011 machine, and only Distiller and Acrobat would launch (none of the rest of the creation apps).  So I ran the CS5.5 installer, uninstalled, then reinstalled, producing the same result. When I try to launch, nothing happens.  What next?

  • I still get plug in failure even after uninstall and reinstalled adobe flash to my mac os x 10.7.5 (4 bit) with flash 16.0.0.235 how do I get this fixed??? HELP

    I still get plug in failure even after uninstall and reinstalled adobe flash to my mac os x 10.7.5 (4 bit) with flash 16.0.0.235 how do I get this fixed??? HELP

    That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • DW CS6 doesn't open in OS 10.9.5, even after deinstallation and reinstallation (multiple time)

    DW CS6 doesn’t open in OS 10.9.5, even after deinstallation and reinstallation (multiple time).
    I tried deleting all prefs with the name Dreamweaver in the Library/preferences and in Apllication Support/adobe. Doesn’t change anything.
    Is there a conflict with something else? Is there something else I can do ?

    Hello Claude,
    in this case I would download a really new trial version of your program in question (DW) and change it into a "real" version later, BUT because you said, that you "re-installed" already, so it will become a little bit more complicated. It would be necessary that you have to use "Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool".
    Here an advice for that (The order varies depending on your individual needs. Please read all my proposals first, so you can better choose the first step:)
    1. Maybe you have to activate/deactivate, so please have a look there:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
    2. Sometimes, we know in the meantime, the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
    3. You did you already try "uninstalling and re-installing". Be careful with (de)installing aso. by (de)installing by your own resources. As much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
    I quote: Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
    Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
    4. If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I for my part had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.

  • Shopping cart not returning to SoCo even after PO and confirmation deleted

    Shopping cart not returning to SoCo even after PO and confirmation are deleted.
    Steps followed:
    Created shopping cart
    SC approved
    Assigned vendor in sourcing and created PO(PO created successfully created in ECC)
    Confirmation created
    Deleted the conformation
    Deleted the PO
    When PO is deleted SC should return to Sourcing Cockpit, but it is not returning.
    Checked the table BBP_PDIGP, source_del_ind is space.
    Ran BBP_GET_STATUS_2 and CLEAN_REQREQ_UP both the programs manually but in vein.

    Hi,
    Can you try by just deleting the PO? Dont delete the confirmation.
    I think once you have done the confirmation, the SC will not come back to SOCO. (Logically if you see, confirming means you have already received goods, so after receiving goods, I dont think SC will be visible again in SOCO)

  • My mac mail on just keeps sending the same messages even after deleted and shows thousands of emails supposed to be coming in

    My mac mail on just keeps sending the same messages even after deleted and shows thousands of emails supposed to be coming in

    If you have a backup, you can restore the e-mails. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Library/Mail/V2.
