Okay, it looks like this now:code:- (NSString *) hashInfoString: (NSString *) aString { uint8_t md[SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH]; const char* stringToBeHashed = [aString UTF8String]; NSLo…

The returned string 'answer' probably doesn't have its zero terminator, since there's no room for it. Also, "answer' and 'md' are probably the same pointer. Try these (untested) …

Your work blocks java.sun.com? What a bunch of retards. Where the heck do you work, China?

Hiya, Sounds like the HD is dead, but need to ask a few more things:- A- What model of G3 iMac is it - Bondi blue 233MHz, 350MHz, or DV etc? B - What OS do you run? If it is one o…

Here is a guide for the later models - don't worry about its guide prices for HDs - it is a few years old now!

And here is a guide to the original Bondi models

Thanks for the info. I'm not sure of the model, or processor speed, as the machine is dead and thus can't tell me that info. It is the "Flower Power" model, which if I recall was…

Oh yea, Forgot to answer the OS question. The computer came with OS 9.1. I had upgraded it to 9.2.2. But since I ran the System Restore disk, I'm back to OS 9.1 for now. Also…

Ok flower power is one of the later ones so easy to replace the HD - instructions like the first link I posted. Can you boot you iMac up in Target disk mode? i.e. Power up holding…

Thanks for the good info. I have not had a chance to get back to check this thread until today. The dead computer is hindering my internet access. Target disk mode: Let's see i…

Hi Doug 'Target disk mode: Let's see if I've got this right. (1) Hook the Powerbook and Imac up Firewire to Firewire. (2) Boot the Powerbook. (3) Boot the Imac with the T key down…

Thanks again I had just done some searching on the forums and found the same recommendations for DiskWarrior and TechTool Pro. Got to get a Firewire cable and order a new HD Dou…

If you shine a bright light at the display while it's on, do you see a dim image? If no, then the panel or other component (e.g signal processor) has died. If yes: did all the ba…

Thanks Tooki, I'll check that out (need to hook it back up)

Well I should add the following having done many of these repairs. the 1/2 brightness question is because you have 2 bulbs one on the top one on the bottom. both bulbs don't die a…

Yup. I said all of that in my response. tooki

When my cinema display died a few years back (rev 1 dvi ) the picture came back when I unplugged the usb. been using it ever since without the usb. looked into getting it fixed but…

Do a search -- this is a super-common question that gets asked -- and answered -- frequently. But simply, a mike won't work on a line-in. Mikes go into mike inputs, which are diff…

As Tooki said, you cannot drive a line in with a microphone. Furthermore, what kind of XLR to minijack adapter did you buy? If it doesn't have a transformer in it, it's not likely …

Something like the Griffin iMic will solve this problem?

The iMic might help, since it does have a preamp in it, but the main purpose of the iMic is to provide an audio input to Macs that don't have one (like my Quicksilver). An XLR mic…
