My iBook g4 is stuck on a gray screen, that it will not load until recovery. Only one choice. I don't have the disk. What can I do?

How can I get payback

An iBook G4 wouldn't have a recovery partition, because he can't run OS X Lion, the 1st version of OS X that featured a recovery partition.

Your signature indicates a 'MacBook Air', but your topic speaks of one, "iBook g4. Are you sure that you have correctly identified your Mac?

There are 4 models of iBook G4s expedition with different versions of OS X Panther and Tiger. The last 3 have been upgraded to OS X Leopard.

  • HP Photosmart 2610 says that it will not print, because the transport is stuck, but it is not

    my HP Photosmart 2610 all-in-one, said that he will not print because the transport is blocked. Well, he is not stuck. Yet, I can't print. I printed close to 20 000 cards because I bought and installed printer. What should I do? can you recommend a printer to buy. Looks like it's ready for the 'OS' yard HELP.  PAUL LACNY * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    Hello

    Perhaps he is worn and requires little (routine) maintenance (20,000 sheets is a lot of printing).

    As OEM HP is responsible for the good operation of the printer and their drivers. Check with
    HP support, their documentation online and drivers and ask in their forums.

    Good luck, you need to update or reinstall the latest driver.

    There are three models, so enter-> Photosmart 2610 - in the link of the HP driver and select the version
    you have - then select your version of Windows.

  • My HP Photosmart Plus B210e printer will not print black ink, only gray/color.

    My printer HP Photoshop more faithful 210th has stopped printing in black ink last week. It prints color beautifully, but where there should be black it comes out just as gray or white spot. I have tried two new ink cartridges, cleaned print heads, reinstalled the driver, all to nothing does not. I tried to align the printer, but it gave me a failure message. Need help please, I desperately need to be able to print to school! I have Mac 10.8, so I couldn't do the online troubleshooting.

    -Very well, sounds like you might have clogged or dry print head. What I propose, is that you first use the Tools menu under Setup for clean print heads at least three times. If that does not improve the quality of your print (PQ) or if you already have gift which, I would say that you remove the printhead and clean the back of the cradle with a non fluffy cloth (like a coffee filter) and a little water. The section you want to clean will be triggered copper bumps where the printer makes electrical contact with the print head.

    If this fails, an unconventional way to solve the problem which has worked in the past:

  • A gray screen with Windows Vista once loading reached log on screen-no visible mouse

    I have Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit and a NVidia GeForce 7300 GT video card.  Since yesterday, when I try to start the PC, the display is OK until just before the log on screen (when the Green loading bar disappears and the user account selection page will appear).

    Once he reached this point display is just grayed out (non-uniform color, some variations in tone on the page).  No icons or the mouse pointer is visible.

    In safe mode I tried to restore the system to a date where he worked well, but it did not help.  I disabled the display adapter and can then load Windows ok, but the display is naturally very ugly.  I downloaded the drivers for the video card, then activated the display adapter, but this takes back me to the original problem.

    Any ideas how I can fix this?

    Thanks for the reply.  It was all down to the graphics card.  After connecting through Mode safe, I turned off the "display adapter" or a graphics card.

    I then loaded windows normally and everything was ok, but the display is obviously affected.  I will revive the graphics card but after the reboot, the same problem appeared.

    I then loaded Windows again through safe, disabled the display 'adapter' once again, reloaded windows in normal and DELETED mode the display adapter.  Then, I downloaded the latest driver for the graphics card.  I received an error message saying that the material was not present.  However, the restart, the graphics card was detected, installed and now everything is OK A.

    Phew, a moment I thought I had a virus.  Ive been advised that there is probably a conflict between the graphics card and software?

  • Windows Movie Maker (Vista) stuck on 'check project files', does not and will not load past to halfway.

    Hey guys,.

    I have been editing videos using Windows Movie Maker with great success, but I have recently installed the K-Lite Codec pack (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/k_lite_codec_pack.htm)

    and since then, Movie Maker will not load one of my projects.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the codecs but I feel I did something for the Movie Maker of the program itself, installing the codec pack, it came with a list of files it wanted to replace. As I obviously had no idea what I was doing, I just said yes to everything that was recommended. I don't know for the life of me exactly what files were etc however, it seems Director impact because now it does not load the project files.

    It's such an embarrassment because I don't know what is happening and really need this problem as soon as POSSIBLE. Any help would be appreciated.

    =======================================
    Might be interesting to try to open Movie Maker and go to... Tools /.
    Options / compatibility... tab and uncheck all filters.

    If you still have questions... do a Safe Mode system restore
    at a time before installing the codec pack could be useful.

  • Gray screen after starting mbp 2011

    My 2011 Mac book pro can't go beyond the start screen. During an attempted in safe mode, it shows the gray boot screen, with the apple bar and the State, then switches to a completely blank grey screen. I tried to reset the memory nvram and smc, but it made no difference. Right now I'm looking at a gray screen and the fan operates at a high enough rate.

    A month or so, there is no problem, I've upgraded to El Capitan. But last week, I started saw strange problems with the display screen, essentially content spiltting which should have been included to the left of two-inch screen would appear on the right side of the screen.

    I guess I have a hardware problem, but I don't know if there is anything else I can try.

    I also tried the recovery mode to try to restore from a time machine backup, but got stuck at a gray screen too.

    Any guidance would be appreciated.

    Looks almost two questions. One would be the hard drive itself. If you can even not all recovery. The disc is maybe damaged. With regard to the problem of the screen which can be a graphics card problem. If you had access to the operating system, you could install GFX CardStatus. You have another way to start, as an installation disc. For example, you can run the disc to check/repair the disk utilities. You might be able to use single user to start and run a repair. Use the S command to start and when its scrolling does. Enter fsck - fy and click on enter. If you get the system modification to rerun the command until he says OK. Then click on and enter reboot enter.

  • Mac Pro 2008 No. Startup Manager Access/Gray screen on startup

    I'm in a difficult situation and hoping a Ninja Mac can give a helping hand.

    Had a RAM issue (is no longer recognized a pair of memory modules in a 2008 Mac Pro, El Capitan), and among the troubleshooting steps, I did a PRAM reset (press / hold down ALT + CMD + P + R during startup) just to see if it could resolve. Unfortunately, the Mac would not start in front of a gray-white screen with a flashing icon of folder/question mark. Returned never me to get there.

    I had read that resetting the PRAM the disc start, among other things, may need to be reset afterwards, and this seems to be the case. Looked this solution and kept diligently press Option key during startup. This time, no folder icon, instead a sensitive cursor, but nothing else. Gray-white screen only, no boot manager to select the startup disk is suitable.

    I also tried the following...

    1. Starting in the Diagnostic Mode... Gray screen.
    2. Restore/recovery... Gray screen.
    3. Reset the SMC... Gray screen.
    4. Enter Safe Mode... Gray screen.

    OS (and apps) on flash PCI cards. All files are on hard disks in the 4-Bay, as well as a player flash remains connected to a (used as a scratch of PS) free SATA port. So I can't really share, but I wonder if I shoot all readers it would require a search for another source?

    I create an El Capitan USB boot (currently copy with createinstallmedia), but don't expect that it will offer what anyone else that its use is based on access to the Startup Manager at startup..., that I can't do. There are the graphics on the screen (missing folder icon, mobile mouse cursor) so can not imagine a video problem.

    Looking forward to enter here.

    Success!

    I created a USB bootable OS X installer using these instructionsand createinstallmedia. After some messing around with the Terminal syntax USB was ready to go. My concern, however, was that the operating instructions required by selecting the drive of the Startup Manager... which I could not access.

    With the USB stick plugged in I started to turned on the Mac while pressing the key OCCUPIED Palestinian territory and this time, the selection screen pops up showing just the USB key for installation of El Capitan. Got that we open and instead of installing I chose Startup Manager in the installation menu bar, took my normal OS drive and rebooted. Back in business, no problems.

    This put aside, although I understood that reset PRAM would also require reselect startup disk, I don't have a hot clue why did not appear the Boot Manager - or any other useful diagnostic. If someone could throw some light here would be appreciated.
