Switch Ram from G3 ibook to G4?

I'm going to upgrade from a 700MHZ G3 ibook to either a 14" G4 ibook or 12" powerbook.
Wondering if I buy the ibook can I take my extra 512 ram card out of the G3 and add it to the G4. Will it work?
Thanks,
Todd

anyone want to buy a ram card for an ibook cheap
What if you left the RAM in the old machine and sold it on eBay?

Will RAM from my Macbook Pro work in iBook G4?

I just upgraded the RAM in my Macbook Pro 2.4 GHZ (removed two 1 GB cards and installed two 2GB cards). I now have two 1GB sticks of RAM (Samsung, came with the Macbook Pro) that are sitting here gathering dust. I have an iBook G4 1.2 GHZ that I would like to upgrade - can I use one of these 1GB Samsung sticks from the Macbook Pro in the iBook or are they incompatible?
Thank you!

Hi Adaklu,
I'm afraid the RAM from your MBP will not work in an iBook.

Taking RAM from old 24" iMac and switching it to other Macs.

Hello there,
My old 24" iMac was damaged beyond repair and It's been replaced by my insurance company with a brand new 21.5 inch model. This is great, but I was wondering if I could take the RAM from the old mac and put it in the new. The old mac in only fit for spares - the logic board has gone.
My old iMac was a 24inch model purchased in October 2008. It had 4 gig of RAM fitted by Apple from the outset. So, potentially, I have 4 gigs of RAM that I could put in my new iMac that has 4 gig as well - pushing it up to 8. Will it fit, or is the hardware incompatible?
Alternatively, I also have a white Macbook that was purchased 18 months ago. It has 2 gigs of RAM that were also fitted by Apple. Could this benefit from any of the old iMac's RAM? As a slower machine it might benefit from it more.
Any help gratefully received. Thanks for reading.

If that does not answer your question, I would call an Apple store and see if they could look up the answer in some of their tech manuals.

Is there a way to link or create a widget that links back to the iTunes U app on your iPad from your iBook?

Is there a way to link or create a widget that links back to the iTunes U app on your iPad from your iBook?
I have already found the Apple Widget Builder (http://widgets.itunes.apple.com/builder/) and that works fine if you want to link to the "App Store", but I want to know if there is a way to "open an app" that is already installed on the iPad instead of double tapping the home button to switch between apps. (I know using the home button is very simple, but I am trying to find an even easier way to just "tap a widget" or "link" that will open iTunes U right up) I am only asking if this is possible for people who may have a hard time running an iPad at the beginning.
I appreciate any help, thanks!

I appreciate your help, but I had already looked at LinkMaker and I thought that was my answer, but as far as I could tell that still only links to an app in the app store. Yes it will link to iTunes U in the app store and you can then hit Open, but that is too drawn out of a process. We would like to know a way to just open the app directly.
Thank you!

A few days ago, I copied text from an iBook onto my text notebook. When I went to my kindle on my ipad and attempted to share a quote from it onto Facebook it pasted the previous quote from my iBook. I can't copy and paste anything except that quote. HELP

Can't transfer photo files from old iBook to Mac Pro

When I travel, I upload my photos using a card reader onto my iBook (1.2Hz, 762 RAM). At home, when I try to transfer them to my Mac Pro Quad (2.66Hz, 3Gb RAM) the transfer always starts OK (a number of files transfer) but then stalls out on a particular file. If I go back to my iBook and remove the "stalled" file, then try the transfer, it starts OK and then stalls on a new file, further "down the list".
So I basically can't transfer the files. Curiously, I have tried transfering the files from my iBook to a CF card and the same thing happens, so it seems the issue is with the iBook. Why would it be an issue only in one direction, ie, no problem uploading the files onto the iBook from my CF card reader? Could this be a memory issue? Any thoughts or suggestions?? Thanks.

I suspect a bad HD in your iBook. Pretty much anything that involved stalling and HDs means that.

Where to get cheaper ram for my ibook g3?

Hello,
is apple the only place where I can get new ram for my ibook g3? Checked their store, 512 ram costs 150 usd. That is expensive enough.
Thanks in advance.

Check out RAMSeeker.com. They will compare different RAM vendors' prices to help you get the best price.
Be sure to buy from a firm that gives you a lifetime warranty on the RAM you buy. While RAM doesn't fail very often, it can happen. Enough vendors give a lifetime warranty that you should not settle for one that doesn't. I would recommend paying a few dollars more if necessary to get the lifetime warranty.

I want to switch stores from Japan to USA. I used to have an iTunes card, and there's 15 YEN left in my account, how can I get rid of that so I can start purchasing in the US store using my new credit card?

I can't seem to find an app that costs my available balance. iTunes said I need to spend it ALL before I can change stores. This means I cannot totally change stores.... Hopeless.

HT5824 I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off..

I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off so that I can receive my texts.

If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it. Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.

Hi, and a Warm Welcome to the Power Mac G5 Forum!
Well - the G5 RAM specs are here
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86414
Some of the Apple Original G5 RAM was Samsung, apparently.
You will not go far wrong purchasing RAM from OWC with their "Lifetime Advance Replacement Warranty"...
Personally I have never had a problem with Crucial
http://crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=1D1DFB01A5CA7304
who have a similar guarantee. And the parent company of Crucial - Micron - were also suppliers of Apple Original G5 RAM, apparently. Good Luck.

How can I get the iBook app on my Mac to backup ePubs I created with Pages on my iPad? Only seems to want to work with purchased from the ibook store.

How can I get the iBook app on my Mac to backup ePubs I created with Pages on my iPad? Only seems to want to work with purchased books from the ibook store. The problem is, once I create a document in Pages and turn it into an ePub to be opened in iBooks, I delete the document in Pages, because I don't need two copies taking up space on my iPad. Before Maverick, iTunes would backup everything in my iBook app on my iPad. If something ever happened to my iPad, all of my created ePubs would be lost and I would be screwed. I suppose I could keep everything on Pages and go to iCloud and download my documents to my Mac, but that is a lot of steps. I may have to do that if there is no other way, but I am hoping someone will have the answer for me. Pretty disappointed in iBooks app for Mac at this point.

iBooks only syncs purchased books. Others must be synced in iTunes.

I have chosen to fil migrate from old ibook to new MacBook Pro using Time Machine after establishing admin account. I now have two admin. accounts and wish to delete the later one and transfer files manually. I am worried I will loose both accounts. ??

Use the Office for Mac and ignore using Parallels for that. If you have PC only apps you have to run that are MS Windows only then consider Parallels. Just transfer your main PC, using Migration Assistant. If you don't know how then simply read over Pondini's article called Lion or Mountain Lion Setup Assistant tips and look for the section on migrating from a PC. Millions have done what you are about to, it's far from leading edge these days, if you go to an Apple Store to purchase they will offer this as a service, something you might be interested in.

Is it possible to use the ram from a macbook in a iMac?

I am installing new ram on my Early 2011 Macbook Pro (2.3 Ghz., 13 inch, os x 10.9.4). Can I install the old ram from my Macbook Pro into a Mid-2011 iMac(2.7 Ghz., 27 inch, os x 10.9.4)? These links show the ram specs, and they look identical to me. iMac: How to remove or install memory MacBook Pro: How to remove or install memory

Yes, it is the same spec.
MacBook Pro:
Maximum Memory
16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
iMac:
Maximum Memory
32 GB (Actual) 16 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
4 - 204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

Final cut pro make Mac pro kernel panic with RAM from other manufacturers

hi all
if i installed RAM For mac Pro from 667MHz DDR2 fully buffered ECC RAM from other manufacturers
final cut pro (just final cut)
make the machine kernel panic messege
all programs working good (like adobe and other compositing program) but final cut freez the machine and kernel panic
the standard RAMs good

Ahmed:
You can try visiting/searching the Expanding your Power Mac G5 forum. You'll find A LOT of help about RAM issues.
Any RAM brand must work but you maust be sure it follows the MAc specs. Some brand sites have good product locator by computer manufacturer/model (i.e. Kingston and Crucial). In fact there is no Apple branded RAM, they use a lot of different ones.
Inside FCP settings you'll find how to manage the memory that the program use, but that settings depends on the total quantity of memory you have installed, and you didn't post that information.

I am trying to upload my PDF file from my IBooks but its only giving me the option to upload from my pictures/gallery. How do I get it to where I can upload PDF files from my iBook or how do I transfer my PDF files to my pics?

I'm having the same issue. I saved a PDF from an email into iBooks. I'm on apple applying for a job but the only option the upload button has is from the Photos file. How ironic right? Luckily I'm in Logistics and not an IT specialist applying for this job! Lol. Does anyone know the fix?
