Aurora,

I have been through 3 yoyos. Is yours the one with the thin mains cord or the thicker one? The thin one cracks at the yoyo-plug end and arcs there, frying the wire. That's what happened with mine.

I got two replacement cords (eventually!) and the third one I cut open, resoldered and gaffa taped hugely and so far so good. Are you handy with a Stanley trimmer and pliers?

Hi,

I have tried this without joy :(

Any other suggestions? <whimper>

If not can anyone recommend a good apple service centre?

Try resetting the power manager. I can't recall how to do this
but you will
find instructions in the Apple Knowledge Base article ID 14449.
I'll try
sending it to you.

Hi,

Something strange has happened to my g3 powerbook.

My yoyo powersupply stopped working tonight and when I got
my
spare out (I have now managed to go through 2 bricks and 2
yoyos) I noticed that the battery wasn't charging.

No problem - fast forward an hour an it still isn't charging. I
have
reseated the battery and restarted the computer and no joy.

It has also been in the shop recently to have the hinges
replaced
(this probably has no link at all)

Anyone have any suggestions as I don't want to leave it
hooked
up to mains in this weather.

Help?.....please?

Aurora
