Question about items I found for my iBook that I don't know what to do with
As stated above, I have an iBook that I've had for several years and I cannot use it anymore to go online as routers aren't accepted in my household. I recently found a plastic bag with a new USB cable, a phone line cable and a new battery Pegatron Model:PB013 with my computer things and I don't know what it is for since I never had occasion to use it. Can anyone tell me what to do with these things? I do know that they came with the iBook but at the time we bought it, we were never interested in what it is for. If anyone can tell me the use for it, I would appreciate it and if there really isn't a use for these items, I will just throw them away. I would love to be able to go online with my iBook but spouse doesn't believe in routers, says then others can get into your info even though I know that isn't true. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello and welcome to the support community.
First of all, routers are not accepted in your household? So how do you get online?
In order to use broadband Internet you need a router.
You iBook would have been supplied with the following items when it was new.
1. Power Adapter
2. Power Cord
2. Modem Lead (While telephone lead used for dial-up Internet via a phone line)
3. VGA adapter to allow an external screen to be used.
No USB lead were supplied and the only battery supplied with your iBook would be that attached to the bottom of the iBook. (White)
A USB lead could have been supplied with other devices like printers, scanners, cameras or phones.
There are four ways you can get online with your iBook G4
1. Connection via Ethernet to a router.
3. Wireless via installed Airport Card to a wireless router
4. Dial-up modem (What the white phone lead is for)
6. USB 3G dongle (Or connection using a cell/mobile phone that's compatible)
I hope this helps

Why is there a charge on my credit card for $12.48 that I don't know about?
Why is there a charge on my credit card for $12.48 that I don't know about?
I know it's important to understand your charges cvette52. Have you been able to review your statements to match up this charge? Do you have postpaid or prepay service with us? Wireless or landline?

my friend activated my new ipad4 with icloud but now he is died and my device asking for icloud account but i don't know what i shall do.. please help me.. my imei number is 01*********544
<Personal Information Edited by Host>There is a new security feature in iOS 7 called Activation Lock. You need the
AppleID and passcode used to activate the iPad or it will be useless to you.
There is no workaround.
Suggest you try very hard to remember that AppleID and passcode. Did you try the
AppleId you used to log into this forum?

Installing the newest update for mavericks. Has been installing for over an hour. Don't know what to do. How long should it take?
I went to Apple Chat and they lead me through a power down and start up with Recovery Disc Utility (Hold down Apple and R keys when powering up).
Then was instructed to run Disk Recovery and it showed HD was error free. Then a reboot started up fine to desktop and showed update to 10.9.2 had been installed. I am guessing the internet connection my have been interrupted during the install.
Apple Chat folks are awesome and a short wait too. -
When I start my MacBook Air, I get a problem report on the Time Capsule 802.11n. When I click Continue, it asks for a password. I don't know what the password is because I didn't set this up. How can I find out what the password is?
Who set it up?

Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
"done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends! -

i don't know why it's all null. i assign something in the default constructor. it shouldn't be "null".
does anyone know why?when you create 2 class using netbean editor, person.java and test.java
i never compile person.java.
when i finish typing these 2 class and i just right click test.java and run.
my question is do i need to compile person.java before i run test.java directly??
does Netbean compile it automatically when i run test.java first time?
i add another constructor Person constuctor with one parameter in Person.java and create 2nd object to test the 2nd constuctor and run.
All the codes work, so does the first default constructor. i don't why is that.
Then i removed what i added and restore back to where it didn't work before and test again. it works.
@_@. so weird.
problem solved. thank you

Freecorder asked for admin access & now i don't know what it installed
hi there!
first time writing a thread. i stupidly installed freecorder. it is reknown ... more like notorious for installing all kinds of garbage on windows. they must have just come up with a dmg for mac - as applian's customer service still has no idea that there's a mac app. it asked for admin access during install. briefly afterwards, i realized that that was not normal for an app to do - so i started looking around & sure enough, it's filled with nasty stuff. i have since deleted the app, but wondering what else it could have left on my computer. also if there is a way to see what changes it made, or why it even needed access to my admin ...
i'd be grateful for any help. still getting to know mac.
thanks,
adamIt's normal for your Mac to prompt for your admin password when installing apps.
If the app is still in the trash... drag it out of the Trash to the Desktop.
Then install this utility > Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
AppCleaner will not only uninstall the app but all the associated files.
If you emptied the trash, click the Spotlight icon top right in your screen. Type freecorder in the search field.
Hopefully that will help you find any of the associated files.
You are correct in that it's a nasty one > http://download.cnet.com/Freecorder/3640-2071_4-11594257.html -
i have tried my original itunes id and that has not worked.
Enter the password for the Apple ID that was setup on the device.
If you do not know what this is, there is nothing that you can do.
Activation lock is a security feature to prevent lost/stolen devices from being restored as new and used by those that the device does not belong to.
There is no way to bypass the Activation Lock feature. -

There is amazingly little on the web about this unwanted software regarding Safari. Also just noticed I repeated the same nonsense removal instructions you found. Sorry for being a parrot.
Couple of things to try.
1) Close Safari. Open the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ folder. Press Command+2 to change it to List view, then click Date Modified to sort them by time/date. Newest date should be at the top. If there's anything there with a date of just the past of couple of days, move it to the desktop. Launch Safari. Is it gone?
2) There are actually three folders named Internet Plug-Ins. Check the ones in the System folder, and in your user account Library folder. Again, looking for anything added just recently.
I saw the same page Linc posted to, but it didn't dawn on me at the time what the relation may be. Open the System Preferences and click on the Language & Region icon. If you see any Asian languages in the list as shown below. Highlight it and press the minus button to remove it. -
Can you help me get all my previous information from Itunes onto my new IPhone?
My other one was stolen and now I can't transfer my pictures and music. It keeps asking for a passcode? I have tried my apple passcode, my phone code...What does it want?If iTunes is asking for a password to restore from an iTunes backup, then yes, you did set one up. You must have selected 'Encrypt iPhone Backup' when you created the backup. If you don't remember the password, then you'll have to restore the device as new.

I looked online for more help but to no avail. I tried to find the file on My Computer and to plug it into iTunes but it says that it cannot connect because it is foreign to the computer, since I just got the computer. I have absolutley no idea what to do!
From the limited amount of information you provided it sounds like the iPod was previously synced to another computer. You need to place the iPod in recovery mode and connect to the computer and restore via iTunes. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore -
My computer froze, so I shut it down for a few. However, once I started it back up, it's been on the loading screen for a very long time and the computer is getting hot.
try holding power button for 10 sec after that
turn off the mac completely
as soon AS you hit power button press following 4 keys
Option + Command + P + R
that should reset it
