PowerPC :: Cube Will Not Power On

Oct 31, 2006

I just bought a used cube from a local computer shop. It was abandoned by its owner. I saw the computer running last week when it was in the shop. I went to pick it up today and got it home. I can't get it to power on. The power "button" pulses when I push it but nothing happens. The ACD display that it came with gets power. I have tried reseating ram, reseating the DC to DC board and the graphics card riser.

PowerPC :: Installing Tiger To G4 Cube?

Nov 16, 2010

I have two macs(one is macbook, another one is G4 cube). On my G4 Cube OS 9.2 is running and it is up to date. (last firmware update installed) I want to install mac os x tiger on it but i can not. I tried almost everything but i couldn't install yet.

Firstly I downloaded tiger.dmg and burned into a dvd, then inserted to the Cube. It can read the DVD but couldn't run the tiger dmg file. so i could not install in this way.

Then i connect the macbook to my Cube via firewire and I inserted the installation dvd to the macbook but the result was same. cube can read the DVD but couldn't run the tiger dmg file.

Then I changed the host and target. I saw G4's harddisk as an external harddisk on my macbook's screen and i found the OSInstall.mpkg after I mounted Tiger dmg file on desktop. I choosed as installation destination G4's harddisk and installed the tiger on it. Then i open the Cube and I opened startup disc on os9 to choose os x as startup system. Though Tiger's system files are on the G4's harddisk there is no choise as os x in the startup disc menu so i couldn't start tiger.

What can i do for install the tiger on my Cube?

PowerPC :: Apple Pro Speakers / G4 Cube With MacBook - PowerWave / IFire Replacement

Oct 27, 2008

I'm looking to replace my current failing speakers and I'm thinking of getting the old Apple Pro Speakers (with that fancy connector) or the USB ones that came with the G4 Cube. Griffin had their PowerWave thing a while ago that could amplify the USB speakers because the USB port didn't have enough juice to power the speakers like it did on the Cube. My question is, does anyone know of an alternative USB amplifier that could get the job done? Or a way to convert the Apple Pro Speakers into a usable form? I have the unibody MacBook, is this even an issue anymore, or are the USB ports the same power as the Cube's?

Dec 4, 2010

Whenever I lift up my Macbook Pro on a tilt angle the screen falls backwards. Does this happen to you? I hold it on an angle and the screen just falls back. Obviously this only happens if the screen is not completely back in the first place.

Jul 22, 2010

As the title says, when I boot out of bootcamp and back into OSX, my clock falls back by 4 hours, but the clock on the windows side (Win 7) is running fine. I've done some searching, but have found little useful information and all the threads I've come across (not just on this site) have been 2-3 years old and didn't have any clear answers.

MacBook Pro :: (Dec 2010) Falls Asleep When Active - No Display Or Sound?

Mar 11, 2012

My Macbook Pro (purchased Dec 2010) falls asleep when I am in the middle of using it (typing, clicking, watching a tv show).There will be no display or sound, and it will sleep. Most times it will wake up when I click the touchpad alot or close and reopen the screen. However, sometimes I will need to restart. I am not sure why it is doing this all the sudden. It is happening more and more often. How can I fix it? The AC Adapter is plugged in, battery work normally and I set the energy saver so that it would not sleep when plugged in.

Info:
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Mac Mini :: Natural Progression Of Cube

Dec 30, 2010

While poking around on youtube I found Steve Jobs presenting the Cube in 2000. Seems like it was the mid level headless Mac people call for on the Internet. I wonder is there any interest macrumors? I like the Cube design and the way you were able to access the guts was very cool. Some have written that the Mini IS the natural progression of the Cube but I think the Mini is too locked down. It would be nice to make drive swapping a little more user friendly and maybe have a PCI slot (or two) available. Maybe even the ability to upgrade CPU/GPU. Think of it as a Mac for people who can't leave well enough alone but can't afford a Pro.

OS X :: Ubuntu Reinstalled - 3D Cube Quite Neat?

Nov 24, 2009

Finally got around to reinstall Ubuntu 9.10 x64 natively on my MBP, since I accidentally deleted the partition that was already on there. Anyway, got it all perfectly working, then I played around with the 3D cube. I was freaking blown away how neat it was! Does anyone know of something like it for Mac OS X? I searched, but couldn't find anything.
