Lombard screen hinges

I've been noticing an annoying amount of slack in my Lombard's screen hinges. To put it lightly, I have about 3/4 of an inch play when I have the screen set to any angle. It really gets annoying, which is why I'm consulting the experts. Is there any way to fix this, or is this a normal Lombard

Re: Security Updates/Airport connection

My iBook lost the ability to connect via Airport card at all. When Airport was turned ON in the menubar it found no networks at all, just as if the card was broken. The "solution" I've found was to download KisMac and then use the KisMac "active" Airport driver, in teh KisMac preferences I

Dead Pismo?

Hi folks! I don't believe my Pismo is really DEAD dead, but it is dead. This happened to me once before and it revived after just being plugged into the AC yoyo for a couple of days. I've tried that, but to no avail. I did leave the battery in it while trying to charge it via the AC charger,

Re: Superdrive Question?

Interesting. Dan A had already sent me the file, but it doesn't open as a text file if it is 'saved' to disk. If it is just drug, then it does open as text file for me. Either way, it didn't work after restart. So much for that Apple forum suggestion... Found that one here: http://discu

Good evening fellow G-Bookies. I have a question for the list regarding pcmcia cards for the Lombard and any other powerbooks. I have in my G4 Sawtooth a Motorola WPCI810G 802.11g Wireless PCI Network Adapter that shows up in Apple Profiler as an Airport Extreme card and works flawlessly with

Actually I have several things to try yet re the combo drive. These were data disks so really wasn't considering whether there was an audio disk issue. Apparently there are some files though that can get corrupted that I can try removing. Apparently resetting the pmu may also have an imp

Re: Superdrive Question?

David... I'd say a critical question is, "Why does the DVD work, but the audio CD does not?" I'm assuming the DVD audio is fine, correct? If so, then clearly there is no laser registration issue, and the fact that DVD audio works indicates the audio circuitry in the drive is fine. Are you su

Superdrive Question?

G-day all, I purchased a used G4 800 DVI Powerbook this last weekend. Everything runs fine and its in great shape, except the Combo drive. It was damaged by prior owner. DVD still works but no cd performance at all. So wondering about compatibility of Superdrives. Specifically, does

I've tested OnyX on my Lombard, and, based on my results with it, I believe it'll solve the mini problems. Thanks for the recommendation, everyone. Thanks for all the help, and have a Merry Christmas, Caleb -- G-Books is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronicsht

[OT] Looking for old iDVD 2 theme!

Somehow, during the various updates to iDVD, it seems that I lost all my older themes. I just finished an iMovie that I wanted to burn to a DVD just to realize that I'm missing the old "Sport" theme from iDVD 2, I believe. Would anybody have this theme and could send it to me? Thanks in advance!

Re: OT: Mac mini slowing down...

I'll be sure to try that. I remember how upset I was when the power connector broke on my PB 190, which took away my uptime record. :( (Two months, three days for the 190 and with a new battery, the Lombard should break that.) Well, I'm going to be sure to give OnyX a shot. For some reason, e

Well, the only programs he uses with any regularity are Safari, Mail and iPhoto. I'll try MacJanitor on my Lombard, and see what that does. Now, where can I find it? As far as autostart utilities go, I'll take a look at those. The thing has only had a total of 3 hours downtime since the d

Re: USB2 for Pismo - use a PCMCIA Card?

Well that is good news as, as much as I like my old pismo, the eMac would have more grunt (G4, faster processor, and more RAM) for processing images. --- Bruce Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Dec 16, 2005, at 5:41 PM, Barry Muller wrote: > > > Zoltan et al., > > > > Thanks for the tip
