Worried about my powerbook g4

First of all I'm a new mac user never used or touch one before I always was a PC guy until my family talked me into trying one. So I was looking on craiglist one day and seen someone that posted a ad a Powerbook G4 ,1.4GHZ,512,80GB,Superdrive,15" for $125.00. On the bottom of the page in bold letters said as is doesnt power on. So I contact the guy and said I was intersted in it. I thought to my self "well if I cant get it fix then I can sell it on ebay for parts. Well they guy sold me the laptop with the box and paper work. I got home and looked at it didnt even turn on. So when I looked at the paper work it said that i had only 76 days left of applecare. It was too good to be true so I took it to a repair center and sure it was covered i was so happy that i got that laptop for $125.00!! WOW! Two days later I got the laptop back and they replace the logic board. Now because the applecare running out soon Im worried that it will happend again. Does anyone had this problem that doesnt power up? my powerbook g4 works great but worreid someday it could do that same thing.

thanks guys i think i did have a great deal too. I think apple rocks!! I fell in love with the powerbook g4 that i got rid of my $2,000 gaming system and 3 desktops in my house and my ibm thinkpad t61 and Im going to get all apple desktops in the house and making my wife use a powerbook also. I think you guys on this site are very nice and helpful.

Should I worry about a swollen battery?

This MacBook has some age on it. Besides the fact that it is the black macbook and the finish is terrible the laptop is awesome. The one thing I have noticed however, is that the battery has started to swell, such that the laptop no longer sits properly on the desk. It also gets extemely hot. I know it is out to old for coverage, I am just wondering where I can find an affordable battery. The Apple store told me $250 which I think is crazy. Is that so I buy A new macbook pro?
I don't have $1200 to spend. UGGH It seems to hold a charge, just wondering if I should just not worry about it? Put a fan under it for the heat??
Thoughts folks?

Not happy with Apple battieries
Any opinions on the most reliable 3rd party battieries? I'm not having the best luck with "official" apple batteries. For the added price of Apple hardware I would hope they'd be more discerning about the 3rd-party sources for components in their computers.
My battery is now swollen, and isn't charging. I'm also having issues with the trackpad button clicking everything un-intentionally. Now I can't use my machine without external power and the trackpad disabled. I think the warped battery also put too much pressure on other components in the machine (just a guess)
*edit* after removing the battery the trackpad functions normally. the excess pressure from the battery was causing the issue.
I made the mistake of leaving my MacBook Pro in my car with the near-freezing temperatures of my garage. Knowing my battery would probably be drained I left it plugged in and checked on it the next day.
I'm not sure if it was swollen before charging, or if I needed to let my machine warm to room temperature before charging. Anyway, let my mistake be a lesson to everyone... don't leave your machines anywhere that is too hot or cold, 'cuz chances are it will cause problems. I almost always use a USB-powered laptop mat w/ fan to prevent heat problems, but freezing seems to be just as bad if not worse.
In the past my Macbook Pro batteries have failed repeatedly, and if not for my apple care plan it would have cost plenty to replace those batteries.
Of course the apple genius answer is that I leave my laptop plugged in too long, thus damaging the battery. They recommend I regularly let the battery drain to 5 or 10% followed by fully recharging. Good advice I suppose, and I haven't had issues with this last battery for a few years. On the other hand, I have a very old powerbook G4 that I leave plugged in non-stop for many months at a time and that battery has been working well since 2004 (about 9 years now). So what changed with the newer macbook batteries?

With my iPhone 5s, can I record long voice memo to the cloud and not worry about storage on phone?

With my iPhone 5s, can I record a long voice memo to the cloud and not worry about storage space on phone?

You can't add music to the cloud, whether it will show there for streaming and redownloading depends upon what country that you are in. If you are in a country where music is available in the cloud then you don't have to download the music from the store, if you turn Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under the 'show all' heading) 'on' then you should be able to stream purchased music in the Music app without downloading it - your phone will need to be online in order to stream, and if using 3G/4G then it will use some of your data allowance.
If you download an album or a track then it will be downloaded onto your phone. You can't upload music to the cloud from an iOS device. Whether music that you've bought shows for streaming depends upon what country that you are in and if the album or track remains in the store (unless you've subscribed to iTunes Match), and if you are connected to a network.

Do I need to worry about this?

It has been an interesting few months with my one year old 13" MBP. Lots of spinning beach balls followed by a hard drive crash. Apple was quick to replace the hard drive. And as I had everything backed up on Time Machine I was able to quickly restore everything.
All was good for a few months until the beachballs, freezes, and finder crahes began again. Made another trip to the Genius bar where they thought I might have re-downloaded a corrupt file from Time Machine. They cleaned my temp files and caches and things seemed to work well in the store.
When I returned home I had the same issues. They had prepared me for this. So a system restore, a re mount and re start of time capsule and everything seems to be working well. Speedy, no crashes, no freezes.
The issue is that I wanted to double check so I ran disk verify and permission verify on the disk utility. To my surprise it came back with a LONG error log as below. So long, I could not get it all into this post. But it seems like a recurrent message. Do I need to worry about any of this? What should I do next, if anything? Thanks in advance for your response.

You definitely need to repair your disk. If you can, boot from something else, such an external disk or the system discs that came with your Mac. You can also cause the disk to be repaired by booting into "Safe Mode": http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564 . If that process can't repair your disk, you may need one of the more-powerful disk utilities such as Disk Warrior.

John,
I'd pay good money to bet it wouldn't last 5 years... I don't rate the in built power supply and as for "server grade hard disk" - Hmmmm..... The failure rate of all HD's on the market after 3 year is 60%.

I'm worried about what will happen if I delete my recent backup data from the phone I still own? Will I lose any progress in games that was saved in the backup?

I'm worried about what will happen if I delete my recent backup data from the phone I still own? Will I lose any progress in games that was saved in the backup?
I have an iPhone 4S and I keep getting those irritating notifications that tell me I need to upgrade my storage or free up space. I've deleted all I can from my music and photos without losing too many precious memories, but it's come to the point where I think I need to delete backups. However, I'm just worried that I will lose all and any log-in information that I don't remember and app/game progress that was saved to the iCloud. Please Tell me what will happen/what I can do?

If you are asking what happens when you delete an iCloud backup, it only deletes the backup from your account. It won't do anything to the data on your phone or in your iCloud account. If you don't need to backup you can delete it. (If you no longer want to back up your phone to iCloud, turn iCloud backup off in Settings>iCloud>Backup. Then your phone will back up to your computer each time you sync it with iTunes.)

I have just purchased a new ipad2 to replace my old ipad. How do i sync all the data in my apps I am worried about losing my data?

iPad settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party party app along with app settings are included with the iPad's backup along with other data.
If you are syncing your iPad direct with iTunes on your computer via USB, the iPad's backup is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
The first time you connect a new iPad or iOS device to iTunes that is used to sync with another iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iOS device to the new device. This is followed by a sync to transfer the same content from your computer that is on the old iPad to the new iPad such as music, movies, tv shows, 3rd party apps, photos, audio and print books, etc.

Do I need to worry about these event handlers in a grid from a memory leak perspective?

I'm pretty new to Flex and coudn't figure out how to add event handlers to inline item renderer components from the containing file script so I attached the listnerers simply as part of the components themselves (eg <mx:Checkbox ... chnage="outerDocument.doSomething(event)"../>):
<mx:DataGrid id="targetsGrid" width="100%" height="100%" doubleClickEnabled="true" styleName="itemCell"
      headerStyleName="headerRow" dataProvider="{targets}"
      rowHeight="19" fontSize="11" paddingBottom="0" paddingTop="1">
     <mx:columns>
     <mx:DataGridColumn width="78" dataField="@isSelected" headerText="">
     <mx:itemRenderer>
          <mx:Component>
               <mx:HBox width="100%" height="100%" horizontalAlign="center">
                    <mx:CheckBox id="targetCheckBox" selected="{data.@isSelected == 'true'}"
                         change="outerDocument.checkChangeHandler(event);"/>
                    <mx:Image horizontalAlign="center" toolTip="Delete" source="@Embed('/assets/icons/delete.png')" useHandCursor="true" buttonMode="true"
                         click="outerDocument.deleteHandler(event);"/>
                    <mx:Image id="editButton" horizontalAlign="center" toolTip="Edit" source="@Embed('/assets/icons/edit-icon.png')" useHandCursor="true" buttonMode="true"
                         click="outerDocument.editHandler(event);"/>
               </mx:HBox>
          </mx:Component>
     </mx:itemRenderer>
     </mx:DataGridColumn>
          <mx:DataGridColumn id="Name" dataField="@collectionDesc" headerText="Name" itemRenderer="com.foobar.integrated.media.ui.component.CellStyleForTargetName"/>
          <mx:DataGridColumn id="Created" width="140" dataField="@createDateTime" headerText="Created" labelFunction="UiHelper.gridDateFormat" />
     </mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
This grid is part of a view that will get destroyed and recreated potentially many times during a user's session within the application (there's a large dynamic nature to the app and views are created at run-time.) By destroyed I mean that the view that holds the above datagrid will no longer be referenced under certain circumstances and an entire new view object is created (meaning the old datagrid is no longer refernced and a new one is created.)
I heard you should clean up event handlers when they are no longer used, and I know at what point the view is destroyed, but I don't know how to clean up the event handlers added to the item renderer components? Is it something that the Flex garbage collector will handle efficiently?
Also, on a somewhat related note, how could I push the item renderer to an external component since in my event handlers for the item renderer buttons I need a reference to the datagrid.selectedIndex which, as an external item renderer I wouldn't have access to this containing grid?

No. You don't need explicit cleanup in this case: if your outerDocument is going away, you have nothing to worry about. The event handler leak can happen in sort of the reverse situation: suppose you have a long-lived MyView that contains a custom DataGrid like the one below. Now suppose that MyView frequently destroys and re-creates the grid. And suppose that on its creationComplete event, the grid registers a listener for outerDocument's (MyView's) enterFrame Event. Unless you explicitly remove this listener, MyView will still have a reference to it even after the grid that registered the listener is destroyed (and garbage collected).
This is a pretty contrived example, but it sort of illustrates the potential for leaks: a certain component is elligible for garbage collection, but some longer-lived component holds a reference to it (or part of it, such as a listener function). If the longer-lived component is elligible for GC as well, you don't really need to worry about proper cleanup. That's what you're paying the GC processor cycles for.

I'm having a similar problem, but I do have the key and is not working anyway.
My old pc was running on windows 7 and my new one is an apple running on Lion.
My phone is an Iphone IV and I can see all the bookmarks there.
In order to sync, what I did was click on the "I don't have the device with me", I entered the key that was provided and the process finish ok. It says congratulations, etc, etc.
But the bookmarks are not there, I tried merging data and replacing data on this computer options but is the same.
Any suggestions?

Can anyone tell me if this is something i should worry about?

I just repaired permissions and it says this about ARD.
Is this something i should worry about?

Try a hard reset. ( holding Power til it restarts)
Once to your desktop. Click the Apple icon >> About this mac >> More info>> Storage
Once you see what you have the most of. Try to see what you can delete.
Open up any folder>>all files>> or buy an external to store more data.
Once deleting make sure you empty your trash.
If you are new and its a new computer, you might need to bring it to a store for further assistence.

Worried about upgrading from 10.2.8 to Tiger

I know, everyone tells me I should upgrad to Tiger. I've been using 10.2.8 for some time now on my iMac FP and I got a lot of applications on it. My thinking is "If it aint broke, don't fix it" but I am finding that new stuff like the newest Java and iLife, etc., don't run on 10.2.8.
So, can everyone put my worries to rest? I guess I want to do the "upgrade" so I don't lose my existing apps. I have two large firewire drives. If I back everything up to there, is that a good idea? Or, since I'm doing an update, I don't have to worry about that? When you upgrade, what happens to all the apps you've installed in the "Application" folder? Are they still there? I would think that things like "Terminal" and other OSX apps would be replaced.
My internal drive is 80G and I'm using about 33G of that. I have one FW external drive that has 140G available. Should I "clone" my 33G internal to it, then do a clean install. If I do that, how do I get my stuff back over from the clone to the newly formatted 80G internal with Tiger on it.
I'm sorry for all the questions, but its a big step for me to take. Is upgrading just as good as doing a clean install?
More questions, I know.
Well, I'll stop now.
Thanks in advance,
Alfredo

If we go right back to the original Question we can assume that you are concerned about loss of data and the possibilty that a new or upgraded os will not operate to your satisfaction.
Point 1. regardless of what you do relating to the os you must have a backup?
Point 2. If you do not have a backup then make one. This is without question the most important fact of all time regarding data on a computer regardless of what system amd which os you run.
Point 3. all advice given by others is good, the choice of which app to use regarding a backup is often personal as many apps do the job as required.
Point 4. If a backup exists then you already have your insurance. Making changes to your os can be done without worry as this is the primary reason that backup apps exist. If we ever take the time to read the "read me files"
All of them state that we should make a backup before installing new data!
Point 5. I wish you a happy Christmas and wish all a happy mac in the new year.

What exactly are you seeing on the phone's screen ? If the iTunes icon and cable then the phone is in recovery mode, in which case it's too late to take a new backup or to copy any content off the phone - you will have to connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and reset it back to factory defaults, after which you can restore to the last backup that you took or just resync your content to it

My wife and I are thinking about getting match but we have different itunes accounts and we are worried about losing our individual apps

my wife andI are thinking about getting match so that all of our music is in one place. However, we are currently have different itunes accounts and we are worried about losing the different apps that we have accumulated over time, also she has more storage than I do and we are a little worried about that. Does anybody have any ideas.

You won't lose any apps but one of you will lose the ability to update apps on the device.
For you to share iTunes Match all devices must be signed into the same iTunes Store Apple ID that was used to purchase the service. This means any Apps that were purchased with the other Apple ID cannot be updated on the device as a device can only be associated with one Apple ID every 90 days.
I know it's not what you want to hear, but my suggestion is to simply stay with the system you have. It will cause you less headaches.
