I have a 14" ibook in good condition; it's never been abused or dropped.
It worked fine until recently (the computer itself is still operational).
I have the original Apple power cord.
The ibook works if I plug in the power cord (with no battery in the computer), so the connector and the DC-in jack don't appear to be the problem.
If I try to run it on battery alone, nothing happens. It doesn't power on. The battery is used, but still has some charge, is currently about 97% charged and all the battery test lights light up.
If I put the battery into the computer and plug in the power jack, the computer works fine (off AC power) and even "sees" the battery and reports the stats.
But...
the little green/amber light ring on the power cord no longer lights up. It's as though the computer can "see" the battery but the power source is unable to connect to it and charge it (and it won't run from battery).
Same problem if I swap out the power cord with another one that I know is in good shape, so it's not the power cord.
Any idea what might be the problem? A cable, a component?

I am shocked to see how popular these are becoming. Personally if I got one it would only be an addition to my computers not a replacement for my MBP. Like having the optical drive at my leisure and the better computing power. But then again I do working the IT field. I could easily see how they meet the average consumers needs. None the less I want one.

Is there still a chance that we might see a new Cinema Display before the 18th?

With such high praise of the iPhone 4's industrial design, I would be surprise if Apple decided to get rid of it for something new in just a year. It would be a waste too as it still feels fresh to a lot of people. Not to mention it will be very hard to beat (if there is a new redesign).
Even the original iPhone form factor stayed for 3 generations.

I like the new design. The only problem I have, is when I came to the site. The first thing I saw was a Microsoft ad!!!!! Scary!

I just don't get the obsession with crippled anorexic laptops. The latest 15" MacBook Pro could stand to be force fed a BBQ sandwich or 5, get the ExpressCard slot back on it.
Hell, I'd prefer a MacBook Pro 15" more like a Toughbook.
A USB-only Air makes baby Jesus cry. Maybe if/when it gets thunderbolt.

What about the Cisco AnyConnect app? I keep reading old news how it'll be released when iOS 4 is - so where is it? I want this but can't find it in the app store. Or is it something your network admin has to get from Cisco and install for you?

Just please never give me a parallax 3D screen on my iPhone, or it'll induce vomiting. Until I can walk around in a 3D world and my brain doesn't know the difference between that virtual world and the real one, please let me stick with 2D!

Who was asking why MS has to lockdown Windows with an absurd level of protection via WGA? Here is your answer.
so double the killer delete select all
I am quoting you because I LOVE your signature. That is a classic video that I have shown to many people.
Apple is starting to get a taste of the medicine Microsoft has been dealing with for years. I guess it means that Apple is becoming even more mainstream. Why would people go through so much trouble to crack it if it wasn't so popular?
(And by the way...I also love the new spell checking feature in Firefox 2. Why did it take so long and why did I never realize how much I needed it?)

Hey guys,
I�m in a shared living environment at the moment where we are sharing a business class internet connection. All of the rooms are wired for internet and there are usually about 60 connections to the internet.
Hardware:
Modem
AirPort Extreme
2 Switches
7 Air Port Expresses
With this information, what would be the ideal set-up? If I want to preserve mostly internet speed and local transfers. Also, would I see any benefit from installing a gateway server?
I know that this is a lot of ask of you guys but I do really appreciate it.
Thanks

Maybe try resetting your PRAM (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238) too, because it's kinda fun. :p

Fivepoint, I do wish you would stop it with the sensational and inaccurate threads. If not for our sake, yours. They are intentionally designed to bait and inflame.
Lee, I'm sorry... but the definition of 'sensational' is not the same as 'anything Lee disagrees with'. Would you call the thread started today by rdowns called "Mike Huckabee... and American Dick" sensational? How about the one called "Wisconsin Public workers stand up to Republicans." I find that one pretty sensational. :rolleyes: Grow up.
May I also ask why you're not confident enough with your own views to answer the poll? Also, what exactly is 'innacurate' with my thread?

Although the Flurry article spins this as being positive for ios/android gaming, I'm not really sure that the numbers support that interpretation. Last year, they included only iphones and ipod touches in their data and found that they had 5% of the market. This year, they added iPads, android smartphones, and android tablets (huge market that...), and found that the numbers only went up to 8%. I don't really find that to be very impressive.
Meanwhile, consoles, all of which are ~5 years old, increased their market share from 71% to 76%. In other words, consoles' market share increased almost twice as much smartphone/tablets' did, even though the ios/android data now includes a lot of devices that weren't counted previously.
And - to reiterate what a lot of other posters have said - touchscreen gaming is can be excellent for puzzle-type games, such as angry birds. It does a good job with accelerometer based games, such as doodle jump. But it is kludgy and inferior for most other type of games, including FPS games, and it will remain so until there is some sort of standardized controller with actual buttons and joystick(s).

Congratulations, you have the (dis)honor of posting the 768th thread on a BT mouse recommendation.
Search the forums :rolleyes:
No kidding - I think BT Mouse threads are the most frequently repeated on this forum.
I personally use the Radtech BT500 - and I have been able to use it from across the room - unfortunately at that distance I can't see the screen, so waht's the use? ;)

Wow. Let's hope it looks better than that diagram. Anyways this would be the ultimate iPod (Could be a 4 or 5 inch screen). Of course, the screen needs to be more scratch resistant than previous generations. And they have to bump up the resolution on their iTunes store. But I'd be surprised if we see this anytime soon.

Apple has chosen to use the radeon 9000 because it is $70 vs $125.
The new radeon 9K's are a very cheap chard because ATI has integrated many
of it functions on to one chip. The 150 dollars that ATI quotes for the
price of the 9000 pro is just a special price for us mac users.
