Kanga won't start
Greetings listers, I've got a PowerBook G3 (original Kanga) that I can't get up and running. I've tried asking at the Apple support site, but haven't gotten much help yet so thought I'd try here. For those of you regulars at the Apple site, sorry for putting you through this again. Here goes: Here's what's happened, and what I've done: When I first got it it wouldn't power up - nothing, no chime at all. I could hear power though (a slight hissing through the speakers) when connecting the adapter. I reset by pushing and holding the reset actuator several times. Finally got the green sleep light to come on (steady, no blinking). After a few more (maybe a dozen) resets I got a chime (YES!) and screen with the flashing floppy and ? It would then power on to the flashing floppy using the keyboard power button. I inserted an OS 8 (and 7.5, and 9.1) cd figuring I'd wipe the drive and start fresh. Every attempt ended with a dialog box stating this OS will not run on this machine check your manual. These were all genuine Apple generic cd's, not machine specific cd's. I decided to open it up and check connections (and make sure there was a hard drive). Everything seemed fine until I removed the cage holding the HD. I then noticed that the Power Management Board seemed loose - not really snapped in. I thought I had it figured out. I snapped the PMB in, took the HD out and (with a another machine) repaired and wiped it clean and then reassembled everything carefully and tried again. But I'm back to where I started. It won't start up. I've removed the RAM card and tried but no change. I've tried without the keyboard connected. I've tried w/o the PRAM battery connected. I've tried all kinds of combinations of these things. I've tried different power adapters. I've checked and rechecked all connections inside (keyboard, HD, etc.). The results are the same: Connecting the power adapter immediately results in a slight hissing from the speakers. The keyboard power button does nothing. After resetting I can get as far as a steady green sleep light but that's all. I haven't heard a chime or seen a flashing floppy in dozens and dozens and dozens of attempts. I have since replaced the pram battery and the only difference is that now the green light will stay on even after the main battery and the power adapter have been removed. I've taken this as a good sign (tho I don't know why. Desperate I guess) So I'm stymied. Any one have any ideas? -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

any significance to Pismo screen cable color?
Hello, On a Pismo screen, could anyone please tell me if there is any significance to the color of the cable that comes out of the screen to the inverter board. I have seen blue or pink. Got to wondering if there were certain brands of screens that matched certain inverter boards better than others. Thanks. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Battery not charging properly.
I don't know what battery reset utility does, because it won't work with my Pismo, but I do know that when I first got the battery from OWC it did not charge at all for quite a while and then only a little bit even though the Well, Battery Reset does just this -- resets the battery. I got a Wallstreet with a dead battery - didn't show up in the control strip, didn't load. I run Battery Reset on it and the battery started charging. It is now good for about three hours work on a full charge. Don't know, however, what Battery Reset does to a new battery or if it acts differently with a non-apple battery. According to the Read Me file it works with PowerBook G3 Series (family number M4753 or M5343) or iBook (family number M2453) computers. Don't know offhand if the Pismo or the Lombard are amongst those... Udo -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Any experience with USB to SCSI adaptors in OSX?
On Jan 8, 2006, at 1:31 PM, Andrew in Ann Arbor wrote: Hello All I'm shifting from a Lombard to a Pismo and want to be able to connect to SCSI devices, specifically older powerbooks (520, 1400, Wallstreet) using the SCSI dock connector. To do this I've recently got a Belkin F5U015-TPW USB to SCSI adaptor but have had no luck finding drivers for Panther. According to Belkin's web site this device is OS 8 and OS9 only. http://www.belkin.com/support/download.asp?download=F5U015- TPWlang=1mode= Does anyone know where I might look for OSX drivers? Or can anyone recommend a different adaptor that works in OSX? Thanks Andrew in Ann Arbor technology is the answer, what was the question? Andrew, I use the XpressSCSI adapter from Microtech. The adapter makes the SCSI devices plugged into it, (daisy chained up to 7) look like USB devices in OSX. I run Panther and there has never been a problem. The devices I use on it: SyQuest removable drive (remember those?), SCSI CD-burner (even works in iTunes), Jaz drive and an Epson SCSI printer. I recently replaced the printer 'cause it finally died but it had nothing to do with the adapter. The reason the Belkin adapter needs drivers in the first place is due to the fact that it doesn't do what the Microtech adapter does, which is simply fool OSX making it think it's all USB devices. In fact, under System Profiler, SCSI still says no devices found, and yet under USB all the devices come up, with the adapter showing up as a USB hub. THE MOST IMPORTANT thing to remember when using these adapters is to have an ACTIVE terminator on the last chained device, NOT a passive terminator. That simple mistake can cause the devices to simply not work, or worse, damage everything. Hope this info helps in your SCSI quest. Zoltan -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: bluetooth, AL-book, and Clie...
My best guess is that this is a software/firmware problem with the Clie, not the PB. I had a similar recurring problem in the past with a Kyocera smart phone using a cable (it did not have Bluetooth). Can you hot sync using the cable or cradle? If so, do that, and as an experiment, soft reset the Clie and try the Bluetooth hot sync again. If your experience is anything like mine, the novelty of using Bluetooth to hot sync may wear off very soon. I now have a Treo 650 and a 15 AlBook G4, 1.25 GHz. It takes me a minute or so to hot sync with the cable, and almost ten minutes via Bluetooth. This may be because of the number of applications and files I have (including Documents to Go with many files, as well as Acrobat Reader with several files). So I hardly ever use Bluetooth to sync any more. It is nice to have it available in case I need to and I don't have a cable handy, though.

Synch works great over cable, Mac or PC, and great over bluetooth (PC). It is a little slower but it sure is handy when I forget a cable- for example at work today, I was able to use BT to get all my Exchange calendar events onto the Clie, and from the Clie to iCal on the PB later at home- I'd forgotten the USB cable I need and there were a tons of meetings and appointments that I wanted to get on the PB ASAP. Glad to know I'm not alone, but it seems to me if it's working great with multiple PCs and fails with the Mac, the issue is the Mac... Brian -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Google Earth Beta - please reply off-list
It worked a whole lot better after I turned it down from some of the high-end video settings which seemed to be more in line with a G5 desktop system's capabilities. Turned down to the medium-type settings, it runs nicely on my 1.25ghz Powerbook/1gb RAM/64mb Radeon 9600 and also pretty well on my Dual G4 500mhz/1gb RAM/64mb Geforce2.

Hot Lombard...
Dear listers, and, more specifically, fellow Lombard users, I've got my Lombard in my lap, as it virtually lives in my recliner. However, I was watching some video in VLC when I felt things getting hot. I then fired up TemperatureX and saw that my Lombard was running a smokin' 183 degrees Fahrenheit. Didn't even hear a fan, but I know there has to be on going, because it's dropped twenty-five degrees since I've been typing this email. Is this normal for a Lombard to get that hot? Thanks, Caleb *All temperatures are CPU readings from TemperatureX. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: G4 upgrade for Lombard?

I know the WS I and II have available upgrades from Sonnet, but I'd like to bump the Lombard up.
