PowerMac G4 Dual Optical [Error Code Help]

[IMG]http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/8568/powermacg4mdd300x363.jpg[/IMG]
I recently got rid of my old PowerMac G4 Dual Optical.
It was a solid machine, never broke down, as I constantly maintained it for about 8 years, I only upgraded due to Intel (and some new apps I wanted to use).
Fortunately, I found a good home for it, and I told the guy, what to do to maintain it, and to call me if he has an issue.
Anyways, low and behold he now has an issue, in the form of a Error Code when he turns the machine on (See below).
I've spoke to him over the phone, and walked him through resetting the Pram, and reinstalling the disks (start up and boot from the disk, while holding down cmd+C), but no joy.
He said: "I managed to get onto the desktop again today but again it crashed with in a minute of being on it. It came up with the error message unable to find driver so I copied it down"
Personally I think the internal Hard Drive has gone and needs to be replaced, but I could be wrong.
If somebody can somebody please shed some light on this, as I'd be very grateful.
Cheers,
K.

    Hopefully I'm asking this in the right forum. I just downloaded the update for Microsoft Remote Desktop for Windows Phone 8.1 (I am actually running Denim on a 1520 but that may not matter). The version is 8.1.8.13 released 3/4/2015. I am trying to connect
    to a RemoteApp application but I am receiving the following error message shortly after it tries the redirection process (I think it fails at the securing remote connection part after it attemps the redirction to the RemoteApp application collection server):
    Connection error
    We couldn't connect to the remote PC. This might be due to an expired password. If this keeps happening, ask your admin or tech support for help.
    Inquiring minds may find this error code helpful: 0x207
    I am able to connect directly to both the broker server as well as the RemoteApp collection server with this application with the same credentials and am only experiencing this when trying to connect to a RemoteApp application.
    We are running Server 2012 R2 for both the broker/web and the collection servers. We are not using a gateway server as we use an SSL VPN concentrator instead for access outside of our network. We have server farms set up as well in the RemoteApp topology.
    Any info would help or let me know if I'm not posting in the right forum for this issue. I know this is a very recent release so I'm trying to figure out if I should wait for a bug fix or if there's something that I can do on my end.
    Thank you in advance for your time!

    Hi Scott,
    Please check your configuration once again and the certificate must be well configured. Also for accessing RemoteApp there might be the permission issue for your use, recheck once and verify. You can also got through
    this article for information.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • PowerMac G4 Dual Optical - will not boot & no display

    PowerMac G4 Dual Optical - Model Number 8570 EMC No 1914 : 1.25GHz DP/256M DDR@ 333/80G/Combo/MDM Operating system OS X 1st or 2nd release
    This machine was used daily until February 2007. From then till the last week of September 2009 the machine was in storage and was not powered up
    When tried for the first time in over 2 years, the machine powered up and the main switch on the front of the computer came on but no audible chime was heard. The machine will not boot & no display (apart from grey screen visible).
    The 3.6 v lithium battery was replaced. PRAM & NVRAM has been reset via the keyboard commands : CommandOption+PR keys. After this, the chimes would work on power up but nothing is visible on screen. Also although the keyboard is functional evidenced by the success of the PRAM reset commands, the num & caps lock lights will not work nor will the CD drive "arrow" eject button. I have also removed the battery, reset the PMU on the logic board, and left the machine for over 30 minutes before powering up again:
    Please advise if there is anything else I can try before I take it to a dealer for repair ?
    Many thanks
    Mike

    Try a PMU reset.

  • OSX DVD/CD Burner Error Code - HELP!

    Hey everyone. I hope someone might be able to help me out with a problem I am having.
    I just purchased a Plextor DVD/CD burner, and every time I put a blank in it, it gives me an error code (0x80020025). I thought it just might be my burner, but I tried to burn a disc with my buddy's Lacie, and had the same issue. The drive reads all discs fine, it just won't let me set it up to burn one.
    Can anyone help, please?! Thank you all so much.

    The drive is an external drive. It is a Plextor PX-740UF. I am running it with USB. Just to let you know, I had the same issue with my buddy's Lacie drive when I plugged it in.
    The drive recognizes everything BUT unburned discs. When I put one in and I try to open it in Finder, or in iTunes, it gives me that error code.
    I have also tried to do the force quit from Finder, and then re-launching, but this doesn't help either.
    Thanks for your help.

    Dan

    Thank you for your quick answer, smorkerz. However, I did it and it doesn't work.
    I tried to check separately the time capsule and the airport extreme, switching one off when using the other one. The result is that each one works alone but when I use them both, just time capsule appears, works well, and I can't use the airport to print for instance.
    Do you understand anything ?

  • Internal Update Server Error Code help

    Error code in FlashInstall.log 
    [warning] 1407 12044 vs [warning] 1403 12030
    I am trying to figure out why my internal update server wont connect past the certificate handshake. I can get it to work with a self signed certificate from the machine name but am trying to build a solution for my whole organization using our Root CA with a custom name for the particuler site.
    Any information would be helpful or suggestion for an alternative to using the internal update server since it is near impossible to troubleshoot when i have no idea what these warning codes mean.
    Thanks,
    Xenon

    Now i am getting these in my log but no update is being applied.

  • REALLY bizarre - 10210 stopped - replaced w/an 10810 error code - HELP?

    Absolutely BIZARRO! So frustrating - I have done everything except re-install SL - am reluctant to do that as I do not want to mess up BootCamp - I use AutoCAD extensively in my work - so need to run XP....
    The 10210 error message stopped - was replaced by 10810 message code - exact same results/process - system will not allow the initiation of a new program - must re-boot.....
    How come Apple is so MADDENINGLY non-involved in this question? It's plain not fair....
    GRRRRR!

    Clearly, I'm seen as a 'village idiot' in this pursuit......if I logged the HOURS of Google searches/hits I've chased down, and the myriad suggestions/solutions I HAVE followed up on - all to NO avail, you would be astounded.
    There is little else I can tell you about the problem....system just goes into 'lockdown' at an indeterminable point - I can continue with open programmes, but whenever I attempt to initiate a new program, it generates the message/code.......It is baffling to me that Apple has not seen fit to address this issue......based on all the message traffic out there, many, many others have the same issue - with no known solution as yet.
    If it helps, my system is a MacPro (2008), 6Gb RAM, 2.5 Tb HD space, an Apple Cinema Screen monitor + an HP 24" 2nd monitor....don't know what else I can tell you. BTW - if I'm in XP under Vmware, or in Bootcamp, no such problem occurs in the Windows environment.

    Are you trying to downgrade your iPhone?
    Errors related to downgrading iOS
    The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed.   Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
    (from iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting)
    If not, try to move or delete the IPSW file and let iTunes download it again.
    Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)
    iTunes uses "ipsw" files to restore your device. If those  files  are unusable, then try deleting them, renaming them, or moving the file  to a different directory. This will cause  iTunes to  download a new copy of the IPSW.    When a restore issue is specific to a  user, it is likely due to an unusable .ipsw file. If removing the .ipsw file does not resolve a user-specific restore issue, then the issue is caused by other user-specific security software settings or iTunes preferences. Creating a new user  will also cause new .ipsw restore files to be downloaded in the new  user. You can find the ".ipsw" files in these locations:

  • ID CS3 "Error Code 5" Unable to open, file damaged beyond recovery. HELP!

    System: Apple Dual 500 Mhz PowerPC G4, 1.75 GB SDRAM, Mac OSX 10.4.11.
    I have a 36pg ID CS3 document, which is over 2gb because of embedded images. Workflow: create doc using links; when finished, embed all images then unembed to new folder to consolidate. then simply resave the ID CS3 file using the new links. sadly, having embedded, i was unable to save. so, i closed without saving. Now i am unable to open the file.
    no problems before embedding, now get "error code 5, unable to open..."
    I am painfully aware (now) that this is a bad workflow, as am i aware of several ways to improve this workflow. I do not need advice on a better workflow, i already know i did a stupid thing. i need help on how to recover the damaged file. quick. please. :)
    does anyone have a workaround?

    Thanks for the tip, Bob. i spoke with a marketing guy at Markzware who asked me to forward it on, he was kind and helpful.
