I checked...it's not a recall battery....therefore, that can't be it... any other ideas anyone?

It sounds like a dead cell possibly, or the chip board for the batteries is messed up, check to see if it follows under the recall program. https://support.apple.com/ibook_powerbo…

Hey everyone! Lately I've been having some issues with my iBook's battery. When I open an application that tells me its health and its current status, it says it has 86% health (3…

Thanks for the reply, beachycove. I'm glad the problem is being tackled by people who know what they're doing. I, too, will wait until the last possible moment to install the patch…

A different solution appears to be under development. There is a reasonably active open source development community around the Newton OS, so hopefully this nut will soon be cracke…

I found myself eying a boat load of Newton accessories when I remember the 2010 problem. I've read about it but I haven't figured out if there is a definite fix for it. Is there? I…

I was on my iBook G4 tonight, when the machine froze up. I thought it was due to having a lot of tabs open in FireFox. I did the Command-Option-Escape command, but nothing came up.…

Well, the title says it all, really... I have a sneaky suspicion that there's something wrong with my PowerBook. It boots without chiming (I have reset the PRAM to no avail), and t…

I'll have to try getting into OF.. didn't seem to work when I tried.

my tempo card shows up as a scsi device that is normal i have never ran it or anything on 10.1 sorry

I haven't seen that file on machut or my local mirrors of quite a bunch of macintosh web/ftp sites. Does it exist?

Any sign of MacTerminal 2, eg the one that uses the Communications Toolbox?

Pretty sweet, Wacky ! I've added MacHut to the list of **Free "System 6" SoftWare** :b&w:

The first mirror of Mac Hut is now online: http://machut.uberhost.dyndns.org/ Use it if the official site happens to be down, or is really slow.

The service life of hard drives, like many things, is dependent on how they're used. Particular to a notebook drive, duty cycle is one item of concern. These drives are not design…

No, its working fine under 10.2 so I'd just as soon leave it alone without some actual notion that it will work under 10.1 Really I'm just looking to see if anybody else has run i…

Did you happen to try and just reinstall the cards firmware?

So I have a copy of 10.1 Unlimited Client Server and I thought it would be a hoot to install it on my Yosemite as it is very quiet, sucks up a max of 200w and has a monitor power p…

My friends 1.07GHz iBook had a weird issue last week with its stock drive. After the grey loading screen, it would just sit at the blue screen and you can hear the hard drive tryi…

Last night I picked up my old iBook I sold to my old room mate over a year ago. The HD has died, again. Both models were the Toshiba MK3021GAS 30 GB notebook hard drive. First t…

Like there isn't enough of those, however this is different. I just installed Panther onto it and all was well. My mom uses it today and all is well, she shuts it down and then she…

I got one of my friends to tell me how he did it with his G4 iBook. He had to boot into Open Firmware and run a command to do it, but it (USB DVD-ROM) worked.

Everything I've read says they wont. Only the intel ones. I'll just snag a firewire cable this weekend and try disk mode on my G3 if I can get THAT to boot OSX......
