quicktime for classic
When I launch Classic on my G4, I get a reminder from OS X that the version of QT that is in my OS 9 System Folder is not recommended and that I should install version 6.03 instead. I rebooted into OS 9 and ran Software Update. No new version of QT here, but I did update to 9.2.2. Question: What is the procedure for updating Classic? How do I get QT installed on my OS 9 System Folder?

Actually it should be in the 'Applications (Mac OS 9)' folder. - QT should have it's own folder. I rebooted into OS 9 and ran Software Update. No new version of QT here, but I did update to 9.2.2. cool. Question: What is the procedure for updating Classic? How do I get QT installed on my OS 9 System Folder? It should just install into the correct location when you run the installer: Macintosh HD/Applications (Mac OS 9) Thanks, Larry Yw, Mike -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Good luck to anyone trying to follow this thread! The fall may have damaged the I/O board, or a cable or sensor may have come loose. It's highly doubtful the logic board is damaged. Try this first: reset the Power Manager. Here's the procedure from the Apple Service Manual for your model of MacBook: Resetting the Power Manager (SMC) Power management is now handled by a chip called SMC (System Management Controller). Previously, it was handled by the Power Management Unit (PMU). To reset the SMC: If the computer is on, turn it off. Disconnect the power adapter and remove the main battery. Hold the power button down for five seconds, then release. Install the main battery and connect the power adapter. Press the power button to restart the computer. Next, I would run the Apple Hardware Test included on your install DVD. That probably won't pinpoint any problems. On the other hand, it might, because some of the items in the following diagnostic string are checked by the AHT. Next, look through these two hardware troubleshooting tips from the Apple Service Manual: System shuts down intermittently 1. Disconnect all external peripherals and eject any ExpressCard. 2. Make sure a known-good fully charged battery is fully inserted. Check that the battery latch is fully engaged and is not broken or getting caught before fully catching. Check battery connection to logic board. 3. Make a visual inspection of the battery connector in the battery bay. Make sure all blades are visible and not bent. If damaged replace the battery connector. 4. Make sure the system is not overheating, the air vents are clear and the unit was not used on a soft surface. 5. Make sure all feet are still on the bottom case. If not, order foot replacement kit. 6. Check that the fan cables are connected and the fans are operational. 7. Remove the battery and connect known-good 85W power adapter and power cord or plug to a known-good power source; make sure the DC plug is properly seated. The DC plug should light up. If not, consult the MagSafe power adapter troubleshooting section. 8. Verify that both thermal sensors are well seated and there is no damage to the cables. 9. Verify that the left I/O board cable is securely connected and shows no signs of wear. 10. Try known-good left I/O board. 11. Check that thermal material between the heat exchanger and logic board is in contact by unscrewing the logic board screws and gently pulling up on the left side of the board to verify resistance caused by adhesion from the thermal material. If not, reinstall new thermal materials for the processor, control ASIC, and video chip (see Logic Board Takeapart chapter). 12. Replace the logic board. System shuts down almost immediately after startup 1. Disconnect all external peripherals and eject any ExpressCard. 2. Make sure a known-good battery is fully inserted. Check battery charge and make sure that at least two LED charge indicators light up, otherwise connect the adapter. The adapter should light when plugged in. If not, consult the MagSafe power adapter troubleshooting section for further troubleshooting. 3. After charging for a while, if the battery does not seem to charge, or if it is charged up but quickly discharges, replace the battery. Verify with a known-good battery. 4. Check battery connection to logic board, and check wire attachment to connectors. 5. If just before the system shuts down, the sleep LED briefly comes on, check the two thermal sensor connections to the main logic board. They should be fully
