iLife 4 is "free" for anyone who buys a Mac on or after 6 January. I say "free" because it won't necessarily ship with iLife 4, you may find you have to apply for the upgrade. Yo…

Hello this is my first question on this forum, which I admire very much Thank you! I have af question: After the last upgrade 10.3.2 my 12" fan is turning everytime the temperatu…

You need to be a little more specific on what you are running when the fan comes on. mine pops on when I'm running the Marine Aquarium Screen Effect.

I can be running only Safari or only Word or only iPhoto or only iTunes. Anyhow when the temp. is above 52 degrees celsius (use temp. monitor) the fan goes on. It's very loud and V…

It's not a bug, it's a feature of the Mac OS X 10.3.2 update. The fan turns on earlier to avoid the heat issues everybody was complaining about when the rev. A shipped. Maybe Appl…

I have noticed the fan coming on a lot with my Rev A PB G4 12" on 10.3.2 whenever I use the modem to dial up. It never came on much before. However, the palmrest does not seem to g…

I'm wondering if anyone else has seen these symptoms and, if so, what the cause was: 1. On an intermitten basis (say once every three to four weeks) my PB G4 667 will completely l…

the beeping alone would make me think logic board. either way, it doesn't sound like anything I could tell you a quick-fix for.

I've experience similar freezes on a brand new dual 1.8Ghz G5 (with 10.3.2). I get the same second or two of looped sound that continuously repeats. I've been doing some looking,…

my g4 does this too lol.. You sure the beeping isn't because you're holding down the power button on bootup? I'm positive it's the RAM, myself... because my machine's motherboard…

like the iPod mini? could happen, but maybe this is a baaad idea.

I don't think colored PowerBook would help sales at all. Most people (Pros especially) already love the Al finish as it is. Colored iBook was available for a while, did they help…

there is already a thread here..

yes...maybe bad idea

I recently (november) did a clean install of panther on my PB. I have put a lot of programs on there that are pretty big (final cut, dvd studio, other creative apps) and the compu…

How often do you run the cron jobs? If your computer is turned off every night and started up in the morning, chances are (unless you have changed the settings for cron) that they …

Try running top in terminal or use Activity monitor to see what is using your cpu%. I have seen WeatherPop go whacked and suck up all remaining cpu time. For that reason, I quit us…

MacJanitor seems to have cleared up the issues. I put my laptop to sleep at night so I was missing all cron jobs. thanks.

you can also change the time the cron jobs run. No need to add yet another program to do this for you in terminal, you can type: sudo pico /etc/crontab then put in the admin pa…

I am looking into some external Hard drives and was can't remember if I have USB 2.0 or not, how can I find out? Thanks!

If your processor is 1.33 Ghz ( aka. rev. B) then you have it, otherwise you have standard USB. You can check that under about this mac that is under the blue apple at the top lef…
