Quicksilver Power Light Not Going Out On Shutdown

I shutdown a Quicksilver I've been working on. The light on the power button, and seems a little dimmer than normal. Now the computer won't startup. Have disconnect the power chord, but the light come back on when I reconnect the power chord. What can I do?

Hi, Jim -
You stated the problem clearly enough.
Many models, particularly G3s but also many G4s, will exhibit starting problems when the internal battery is too weak or dead. The expected life of such batteries is about 4 or 5 years, considerably less if the machine is unplugged regularly or for an extended period.
"PMU" stands for the Power Management Unit. When it gets out of kilter (which can happen from a weak or dead battery, or as the result of a power outage), odd starting problems will occur. Fortunately it is easily reset.
There are another couple of possibilities:
• The power supply unit may have gone bad.
• The front panel board (a small printed circuit board behind the power button, on which the button is mounted) has gone bad. Relatedly, the small ribbon cable which connects that board to the main logic board may have got caught beween frame parts when the side door was last closed.
It is better to first eliminate the two possibilities I gave above before assuming that either of these others may pertain.

  • Linksys Wireless-G router power light not glowing

    Hi,
    I bought my Linksys Wireless-G 2.4 Ghz, 54 Mbps Broadband router (Model: WRT54GL) in US. I'm using the same in India for the past couple of months (connected thru 240 to 120v voltage converter). It was working fine until last week. All of the sudden I see the Linksys router power light not glowing at all. Initially I suspected the problem to be with voltage converter, later I figured out that the voltage converter and power adapter to router are working fine. So its the issue with wireless router. Is this a known issue with this model ?. If so how do I fix this ?. Is there a Linksys wireless router service center in Bangalore ?.
    Any help related to this issue would be great.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Siva K.

    Thanks for your immediate response on this issue.
    Well, there is no power to the router at all. So as you mentioned I believe the router is dead. Is there anything we can do now ?.
    Note: This is a pretty new router. I haven't used it much.
    Regards,
    Siva K.

  • Sudden shut down, left with blinking power light (NOT in sleep mode)

    Last night I boosted the RAM on my iMac G5 20" from 1.25GB to 2GB (added 1GB from Crucial.com). This morning I have twice experienced something I have never come across before.
    I was using Garageband (my most memory intensive app) and the iMac just shut down w/o warning. I was left only with a flashing power light (and the power light on my USB music keyboard was flashing, too). It was NOT in sleep mode, and at first it would not start up again at all. It continued flashing even after the power was disconnected. After a few minutes the power button eventually started up the computer again.
    This exact same scenario has occurred twice in 30 minutes.
    A search of Apple support has simply told me that the flashing power light is to indicate sleep mode. Again, the computer was definitely not sleeping.
    Any thoughts? Your help would be much appreciated.
    iMac G5 20", 1.8 GHz, 2GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.8)

    Welcome to discussions - have you tried removing your new RAM stick to see if the problem goes away? You might also try resetting your SMU.
    Please post back.

  • Emails are not going out to everyone, only select people, everyone else gets blocked or bounce backs

    I have a client who uses Business Catalyst and they're having a problem with emails only going out to certain people and not everyone they email. Outside going in, the problem is it either works 100% of the time, or not at all. If it doesn't work the outside people either get a bounced back failed delivery message, or nothing at all and the emails just disappear into cyberspace. And it's not regulated to just one company or one group of domains - it's pretty sparatic on who it's going to work for and who it doesn't work for.
    I checked to see if their IP was blacklisted and the only thing I found was that it just wasn't whitelisted with list.dnswl.org. It wasn't blacklisted with them, it just wasn't listed. Outside of that I cannot figure out why their emails only work with certain people.
    And the problem is across the board with all @grahamwebbacademy.edu email addresses, not just one person's address. Also one reason I'm posting here is that when they put in a support ticket they never get anything back, and my guess is it's because of this very issue, not that no one's responding to them. It's apparently  been going on for a long while too.
    Appreciate the help!

  • AIA error emails not going out

    Hi All
    We have setup a QA box and deployed the code. Now while testing found that AIA Error notifications are not being sent incase of remote/binding faults. The same setup was done on Dev box and it works fine.
    1. Set the email driver properties from EM Console :
    OutgoingMailServer :
    OutgoingMailServerPort : 25
    OutgoingMailServerSecurity : none
    OutgoingDefaultFromAddress: [email protected]
    2. In <AIAHome>/AIAMetaData/config/AIAConfigurationproperties file , below properties are set
    <Property name="EH.INVOKE.NOTIFY">true</Property>
    <Property name="FROM.EMAIL.ID">Email:[email protected]</Property>
    <Property name="EH.DEFAULT.ACTOR.ROLE">AIAIntegrationAdmin</Property>
    3. In http://<host>:<port>/sdpmessaging/userprefs-ui console add email Id to user AIAIntegrationAdmin. Login to this console with AIAIntegrationAdmin/welcome1
    4. Upload the AIAConfigurationproperties file to MDS and Reload the configuration from AIA Console setup page. (http://<host>:<port>/AIA/faces/home.jspx)
    Now step4 is where we had an issue in QA. I uploaded the file to MDS but for reloading the configuration tried logging into AIA Console page. Here it doesnt have any buttons for clicking on Setup.
    Also found that the AIAApplication is down from admin console. When I try starting it, throws an error
    weblogic.management.DeploymentException: [Deployer:149003]Unable to access application source information in '/opt/apps/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/aiarv_domain/servers/aiarv_server/stage/AIAApplication/AIAApplication.ear' for application 'AIAApplication'. The specific error is: [Deployer:149158]No application files exist at '/opt/apps/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/aiarv_domain/servers/aiarv_server/stage/AIAApplication/AIAApplication.ear'..
    Errors were encountered while performing this operation.
    If I try to manually copy the AIAApplication.ear from admin server location into above mentioned path and then start AIAApplication, it starts but after restarting server again same error occurs.
    Is this an issue with AIA Installation on this server ? And are the AIAApplication and AIAConsole issues related?
    Regards
    Subhankar

    Hi Gerhard
    I had already set 'Workflow Notification Properties' to 'Email' . The problem for me was with the way I had updated the UpdateMetaDataDP.xml for loading the AIAConfigurationProperties.xml into MDS.
    I had specified as below :
    <fileset dir="${AIA_HOME}/AIAMetaData">
    <include name="../aia_instances/instance_name/AIAMetaData/config/AIAConfigurationProperties.xml" />
    </fileset>
    I changed it to below and reloaded the config file. Now emails are going out fine.
    <fileset dir="${AIA_HOME}/aia_instances/instance_name/AIAMetaData">
    <include name="config/AIAConfigurationProperties.xml" />
    </fileset>
    I had one final question:
    In the User messaging preference console (http://<host>:<port>/sdpmessaging/userprefs-ui) can we add a comma separated list of email ids to the user
    AIAIntegrationAdmin ?
    Regards

  • Why is a page doc attached mail not going out through gmail?

    Since the update I can't send out an email attached with a page doc. I have continually received the message "Cannot send message using the server Gmail" "because this message's content presents a potentialsecurity issue" If I change it into any format beside page, it goes out. pdf and ms doc have no problem with it.
    Can anyone help me figure this out? why does this happen?

    You can set Firefox home page to one of your choosing, see [[how to set the home page]].
    If the keep me signed in option is not working, you may have a malformed cookie. Try deleting Google/Gmail cookies, for details on how to do that see [[deleting cookies]].

  • Won't startup (Powerbutton lights then goes out)

    2 of my G4 lab computers won't powerup. When you press on the powerbutton it will light up temporarly for couple seconds then go out.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi, and welcome to the Discussions!
    Do a PMU reset on each of the affected machines. Also, note that a weak or dead battery in a Mac can cause this. Check Texas Mac Man's tutorial regarding this.

  • Monitor f1503 - blue led power light not showing power available. unable to turn on

    Hi ,
    I have had my f1503 monitor in storage for a while and it was working at last usage. Connected all power and PC connections correctly and turned the power on but no blue led light working and unable to turn on the monitor. Checked the power adaptor - green led lit on power transformer and 12.33 volts were showing at the output end of the monitor power plug.  The monitor power plug was inserted into the correct socket. Please help?
    Does the monitor have a fuse that may have blown?

  • Emails are not going out - using oultook 2010

    Hi,
    I just got me brand new IPHONE, my fist one !!! WAW !  I receive me mails but I'm not able to send ones unless I'm at home (I guess connected to my wi-fi router....)
    Any one know what I need to do to let go my email out my IPHONE where ever I am ?
    Thanks a lot in advance to you  !!!

    Yes, it would make a difference, but the problem I think is going to be that Cogeco does not support off network servers. So chances are they will not have an alternate smtp server to use. I would call them and ask any ways. Maybe if enough people called and requested off network smtp server help they would eventually add this.

  • Emails not going out

    I know Verizon is not too Mac friendly, but I'm hoping someone can help me with the problem I'm having.
    I'm traveling within the US and using an iBook G4 with Mac OS X 10.3.9 software. I am using the Mail software that came with the computer. I can get mail in no problem (I have 3 mailboxes set up, two with Verizon, one with Gmail), but when I try to send out email, it won't go. It gets stuck in the Out box and it never sends.
    I tried changing the outgoing mail port to 25, used 110 as well or 995 for gmail and none work. What are the settings for the outgoing mail servers that I need to use? I have set up the accounts correctly as Verizon instructs, but I'm just stumped with the outgoing mail.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance!
