Fortunately my daughter has a windows netbook so that has now become the iphone communicator. I can think of no particular reason why apple would remove support for itunes 10 with ios7 - applying force to the upgrade path perhaps..more dosh? - laughable really. I also have an old cast off 3gs which I still use as an ipod/satnav - it can't be upgraded to ios7 so it retains it's friendship with itunes 10 - the only snag with it is that it needs a sim installed before it will do anything at all - luckily they're free and enable the 3gs to operate even if the sim is not activated.

Re: ios7 growing pains
Since my eMac 125 is relegated to iTunes 10 as the maximum, and since Apple has dictated iTunes 11 or greater to be the only versions able to communicate with my newly installed ios7 on my phone, I am at a loss to figure how to get individual mp3s or play lists from my desktop to my phone. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Buy an Android phone. Seriously. I'm so happy I've liberated myself from this POS which iPhone is nowadays. -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Activity monitor shows CPU running at 100% all the time....
Recently I noticed the fan running at full speed for quite some time on my G4 powerbook 12 1.33 mhz which I thought was unusual as it did not seem to run very long in the past. I checked the activity monitor under utilities and discovered that the CPU was running at 100% all the time and the activity monitor shows up all green in color. The computer works fine in all ways except that the fan is running most of the time now to apparently cool the processor? I have checked it many times and even when the computer is first turned on the activity monitor still shows the processor at 100% and soon the fan will kick in. I ran the Apple hardware test on it and everything passed. Is this a sign of impending doom? Should I stop using it or reduce the amount of time it is running? Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for all who respond!

Thanks in advance for all who respond! Tom I suppose the crucial info is the cpu temp - on my dual 1.25 MD the fan kicks into overdrive around 57 degrees - the istat widget will provide you with an alternative set of stats including temp and cpu usage - as I write this it is showing the cpu as 93% idle at 55 degrees. There are other temp/usage guages out there...
