hi there last night, after a restart, my firewire port stopped working .. for me it's a big problem, i've got all my work on a external drive and i always use a lot of firewire devices ...
so ... i went on apple discussions, where i saw that a lot of people had the same problem (it happened with powermac too)... someone, with a reset of the nvram, of the power manager and of the pram was lucky, someone like me wasn't ... now i have to send the titanium to the centralized office (holland) to repair it, and i know that i'll probably pay the flat rate (maybe it's the logic board), but i sincerely don't know how much it is... someone speaks about 450 euros, but i'm not so sure ... what i don't understand is: it's a voltage or energu problem? i tried with hd, ipod ... nothing ... they have energy but i can't mount it ... when i connect the ipod, for example, the firewire logo comes up ... after 3 seconds it switch off , re-switching on in play mode ... but at the same time i'm charging its battery ... with the hd, i can only supply energy to it : the system profiler doesn't see anything along the firewire bus ... i'm not so happy about the titanium, i hoped that an apple notebook had more quality inside it ... btw, if u got a firewire port dead try to make a reset as i indicated, maybe u'll be luckier than me:) alvise on 7/4/02 2:19, Ryan Coleman at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Has anyone experienced failure of the Firewire ports on their TiBook? -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
