Partition Terror---Quick question but very important that I know the answer

I bought my iBook G4 about 4 months ago, and when I got it I didn't make any partitions. 4 months ago I didn't even know what a partition was. But, now I need to make another partition. With only one partition right now it isn't as easy as booting up into a different partition and editing the one I want to. I have one partition and that is the boot partition (obviously). I need to find a (freeware, I'm broke as of now) program that you can boot up into. I also can't afford an external hard drive (seriously, everything right now has to be free).
So basically:
Q: Can anyone find a bootable program that lets you resize and add partitions that is free.
A: ????????
iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Small HD

I want that other partition because my friend is BEGGING me to try linux. I don't see why I couldn't just try it for him. I am only going to make a small 5 GB Partition. My info does say small HD, but that doesn't mean it's all used up. I have a 30 GB HD and I have only used about 10 GB. Also, if anyone knows any Live CD version of linux, or one that can run of a flash drive (other than flashlinux). The reason I want to do this is because I know I am eventually going to end up sending his emails to the junk folder and block his instant messages and block his calls on my cell phone if I don't just try linux. He won't give up until I try it, just the same way he's been trying to get me to switch back to windows (That won't happen, ever, windows *****). Anyways, I just want to prove to him that Mac is better. Also he showed me a linux only program I'm really interested in, so thats another reason. I have a feeling that i'm going to have to take about 20-30 screen shots to prove to him I tried it. But really, that program is the main reason I want to get a small 5 GB portion of my HD for it.

    The problem is twenty three people leaving or twenty three thousand leaving has zero impact on a carrier with over 100 million customers. And they have the lowest churn rate. So if 10,000 or 20,000 or more churn out it means little to the carrier.
    If you have a real lawyer he/she will advise you that you have no case. The device was not lost or stolen by the carrier, you were not eligible for a new device, and like any business who employs large numbers of poorly trained personnel who make low wages what was told to you is not in writing. So a verbal exchange does not hold up.
    In fact in Verizon's customer agreement it has such a disclaimer against any verbal exchanges so if you have that agreement in writing, go get them.
    The posting on public forums and places like Face Book, Linkin, Google+ or a personal web site can open you up to a lawsuit for Dilution of Trade Name, and other offences. However if you have proof then go for it.
    Unfortunately that is how big business works today. A pity

    Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

    Solution below.
    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation.  I have a dell computer at home that has clip art available on it for putting pictures into documents.  Do I need to install an APP to get something similar to clip art?

    I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation.  I have a desktop computer at home that has clip art loaded onto it.  I recently got an iPad and am looking for something similar.  I assume I need to get an APP for it, and if that is correct, does anyone have one that they like?

    Sort of.  There is an app called art shop that gives you a place to park clip art.   But I don't think you really need it. 
    If you have a collection of clip art you want available, move it to the camera roll on your pad/ phone, then copy paste into your document the clip you want.
    You can get them into the camaera roll by putting them in a single event in your picture library and syncing them over,  or e mail them to your self, and save to the camera roll, or send them to drop box, and bring them down that way.
    The challenge is getting them all in one place to make it easy for you to find, which is why syncing might be the best approach in the long run.
    As near as I can tell there is not a ready made clip art collection in app format laying around.

  • I WOKE UP YESTERDAY AND HAD NO CONTACTS NOW I CANT FIND THEM AT ALL ITS VERY IMPORTANT THAT I RETRIEVE THEM PLEASE HELP PLEASE

    I REALLY NEED HELP PEOPLE I LOST MY ENTIRE CONTACT LIST AND NOW I CANT LOCATE THEM AND ITS VERY IMPORTANT THAT I GET THEM BACK PLEASE HELP

    What were you syncing your contacts with? iCloud? MS Exchange? Gmail? Yahoo? A contact app on your computer? If the answer is "none of the above" the only hope is to restore the most recent backup of your phone from either your computer or iCloud.

  • This is a silly question, but I cannot fix it! The icons that appear on my photos after I edit them, have gone away. The only way I can see them is in the Grid view. How can I get the icons back on the thumbnail photos of the full gallery that is loaded?

    You have likely dragged the size of the filmstrip thumbnails to a small size that prevents Lightroom from displaying the badges. Using your mouse, mouse over the top line of the filmstrip and then drag it supports to increase the size.

    That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • I have purchased songs from itunes before on this computer. Now i am getting security questions that i do not know the answers to. It is saying that it is the first time I have purchased from this computer..

    I have purchased songs from the itunes store many times on this computer. Now it is saying that I have to answer security questions that I do not know the answers to before i can download a song. It says because I have not purchased before on this computer, but I have. Can't get past it and just download my songs.

    The reset link will show on your account if you have a rescue email address on it, if you only have alternate email addresses then it won't show.
    If the country where you and your iTunes account are isn't on this page (you need to be in a country to use its store) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    then you can try contacting support via this page and explain that you've forgotten your answers, don't have a rescue email address, and your country isn't on the HT5699 page and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • Please can someone help, I have a question in my coursework that I don't know the answer to! Explain how PostScript fits into the design process?

    Please can someone help, I have a question in my coursework that I don't know the answer to! Explain how PostScript fits into the design process?

    The simple answer is that today PostScript really doesn't fit at all into the Graphic Design process, at least in terms of what the graphic designer needs to know.
    Historically, though, the PostScript imaging model, first introduced circa 1984 provided the basis for the initial publishing software including PageMaker, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, and even Ventura Publisher. This imaging model included support for continuously scalable text, vector, and raster imagery as well as the concepts of a current transformation matrix that allowed arbitrary scaling, rotation, etc. and multiple color spaces (grayscale, RGB, CMYK, spot, device independent, and color-managed).
    The PostScript imaging model was effectively replaced by the PDF imaging model, a significant superset of the PostScript imaging model, by the time Illustrator 9 and InDesign 2 were released in terms of support of ICC color management, transparency, etc.
    The fact is that a good graphic designed doesn't need to know anything about PostScript or PDF per sé, but rather about the basics of color (such as issues associated with color gamut and what how that affects display and printing), use of text versus vector versus raster images and why one should keep content at the highest level of abstraction all the way to the rendering (or screen) or RIP process for printing. Some knowledge of typography also helps.

    If you aren't getting the reset link on your account then that implies that you don't have a rescue email address - are you sure that it's not an alternate email address instead ?
    If you aren't getting the link then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.

    When they've been reset you can then use the steps on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620

  • I signed into my Apple ID on a new phone and I already had it on my iPod. When I signed into the new phone it won't let me buy anything unless I know my old security questions but I don't know the answers to them. How can I get past those or change them?
