The most likely culprit is a particular solder point on the analog board.  Can't remember the ID for it at the moment.  Usually, resoldering the connection will fix the problem.  Best bet is to do a complete desolder and remove the old solder and then solder it back in place with new solder...

Two solid green LEDs and the third is flashing.  So, from the charging front, looking good.  How long the computer will run off the battery will be another question.  Doubt it'll get the full six hours. Does the iBook G4 have a separate clock battery?  I imagine it does.  I should probably...

I think I may have the proper tri-point (y-type) screwdriver head now, after having purchased a set of repair screwdrivers a while back.  Haven't tried any of them yet. Decided today to try to charge the battery to see if it will charge.  Initially, one green LED on the battery flashed.  After...

If you feel comfortable working from the command line, try the procedure here: https://www.experthoot.com/how-to-reset-mac-os-x-password-10-410-510-610-7-lion10-8-mountain-lion/ #2 is the one for Leopard and Snow Leopard.

Does the computer already have an install of Mac OS X 10.5 that boots?

I think I have that same model.  I have used it on a MacBook Pro (2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) to convert from VHS to .mov files. I converted seven VHS tapes of mine before I realized I didn't have the video capture set at the highest quality video settings.  It's been twelve years and I still...

I've been looking for this as well.  I have one that needs the display capacitors recapped, but I haven't wanted to open it up (and leave it open and parts scattered about) without having the capacitors on-hand to replace them right away so I can get it all taken care of at the same time.

ComputerEyes and it was a frame grabber. https://www.wired.com/1994/10/computereyes/ They must have had a version for the Apple IIGS too? https://oldcomputers.net/appleiigs.html

I also had a SCSI device that I think I used on my PowerBook 180c that captured video.  I don't remember the quality or much about it.  I only remember that one time we had a customer who had an image he wanted to use on his print job and the image was, if I recall correctly, on a slide.  Our...

Length: I don't remember for certain.  I think they were short clips.  Probably nothing more than a couple minutes.  I think a minute of video/audio took like 70-80MB or thereabouts and since the hard drive was 1GB, I wouldn't have been able to capture very long clips. Storage: I had an...

For what it's worth, I did some video editing on my PowerMacintosh 7500/100 with Adobe Premiere.  Also I am pretty sure I did that before I upgraded to a 604 processor.  So, if a 601 can do it, I'm sure a 604 should be able to do so as well.  I can't recall the the video capture/output card I...

That's going to be somewhat subjective, I would think.  My thought is that a compatibility chart might be better? I doubt we're past that point.  It will be decades before the copyright expires on software titles.  I think most sites probably rely on the notion that the copyright holders on...

I should also add that I have an external SCSI2SD that I bought hoping to use it on my Mac SE, but I have not been able to do so.  So far, I have only been able to get my Quadra 800 to see the SCSI2SD.  I am guessing I probably have something configured wrong, but haven't been able to figure out...

A Floppy Emu will work as a hard drive for an SE.  I have an SE with an 80 MB internal hard drive and also have an 80 MB hard drive set up on the Floppy Emu.  I mirror both because the real hard drive is likely to eventually die.  But, the SE will boot from the 80 MB hard drive on the Floppy Emu...

Thanks.  I've added that one to my watch list.

I'm still a bit hesitant to upgrade to Catalina on the one machine I have that can run it.  For one, it's kind of slow under High Sierra.  And the other thing is that my version of Suitcase Fusion isn't supported on anything higher than High Sierra.  So I need to find new font management...

Thanks.  I'll keep looking.  I was afraid prices had jumped dramatically and they'd be out of reach.

I looked yesterday.  There was one for $50 plus shipping but the rest were over $100.

Does the AppleSauce support 1.44 floppy disks?  I only see 400k/800k support listed on the website. Is there an advantage to the 3.5" floppy drive support on the AppleSauce as opposed to just making disk images with a Mac that has a floppy drive?  I don't have any Apple 3.5" floppy disks so the...

I agree with you there.  Seems it wouldn't be impossible to use tiny screws or even a slide-in fit to hold them in place. I feel fortunate that, when I got my now-ancient MacBook Pro, I bought a metal case with a padded interior that does a pretty good job of protecting the computer.  It was...
