Cables
Follow these guidelines when working with cables: · Ensure that all cables are routed exactly as they were found when reassembling. Use all grooves and/or protrusions to align cabling. If the cable is improperly routed, you may not be able to reassemble the computer, or once reassembled, the computer may fail to function. · Check that all cables are properly aligned in the connectors and that the connections are tight. · Handle flex cables carefully. Using excessive force to disconnect a cable can tear or damage it so it will not work properly. · Use a nylon tool or dental pick to help loosen cable connections.

Troubleshooting

Power Issues / Sleep - 1

Power Issues ±Warning: The iBook has no backup battery. Therefore, shut the
system down before changing the battery, or make sure an AC power adapter is connected. Changing the battery while the system is in sleep mode, without a power adapter, will result in a loss of all data stored in RAM.

Sleep
There is an option in the Energy Saver control panel called "Preserve memory contents on sleep." When this option is selected, the system creates a file containing all the information contained in RAM at that time, and stores it on the hard disk before going into sleep mode.

Battery Verification
When the power adapter is being used, the ring around the power adapter port glows green when the battery is fully charged. The ring glows amber if the battery is being charged. You can also check the battery status by looking at the Battery portion of the control strip or the battery symbol in the upper right corner of the Finder menu bar.

Power Adapter Verification
Try using a known-good power adapter if the computer cannot run off the existing one, or try the existing power adapter with another iBook or G3 Series PowerBook Under normal operation, the ring around the power adapter port will glow green or amber if the computer is receiving adequate power.

Power Manager Reset
Warning: Resetting the power manager permanently erases and removes a RAM disk. Resetting the power manager also resets the date and time.

±

iBook computers have a reset button on the keyboard above the power button. Press the button once with a paper clip to reset the power manager. Make sure the button clears the plastic of the top case when you release it, and is not stuck in the down position.

Troubleshooting

Power Issues / PRAM Reset - 2

PRAM Reset

±Warning:

Resetting PRAM erases the contents of the RAM disk if you do not have "Save on Shutdown" selected in the Memory control panel. Resetting PRAM also restores default settings, such as Time Zone and Daylight Savings Time settings, in some control panels, so note custom settings before you reset PRAM. · Turn on the computer by pressing the power button. · Immediately hold the Option-Command-P-R keys. · Hold down the keys until you hear the startup chime at least one additional time after the initial startup chime.

Symptom Charts
How to Use the Symptom Charts
The Symptom Charts included in this chapter will help you diagnose specific symptoms related to the product. The steps to solve a symptom are listed sequentially. You might not need to perform every step before the symptom is solved. Start with the first step, and then test for the symptom. If the symptom persists, replace any modules you removed, go to the next step, and test again. Continue down the list until the symptom is solved.

AirPort Card
AirPort Card not recognized 1 Use Software Update control panel or see the Apple Software Updates web page to make sure the latest version of AirPort software is installed. Boot using Mac OS All extensions setting. Reseat AirPort Card. Remove and reinstall the AirPort software. Replace with known-good AirPort Card. Replace logic board.

Symptom Charts / Error Beeps - 6

Error Beeps
The computer automatically performs a power-on self test when it is turned on after being fully shut down (not a restart). This section describes what to do if beeps are heard during the startup.
Note: The iBook and iBook (FireWire) have one memory expansion slot. Refer to the Memory Replacement instructions for removal and installation.

Computer beeps once at startup

1 2

3 Computer beeps twice at startup 1 2

One beep means that no RAM is detected. If a RAM card is installed in the expansion slot, remove it and put in known-good and compatible RAM and restart. · If symptom does NOT repeat, replace RAM card. · If symptom repeats, replace logic board. If no RAM card is installed, replace logic board. Two beeps means that EDO memory is installed in the expansion slot. The iBook does not accept EDO memory. Replace RAM card with known-good and compatible RAM and restart. · If symptom repeats, replace logic board. Three beeps means that no RAM banks passed memory testing. If a RAM card is installed in the expansion slot, remove it and put in known-good and compatible RAM and restart. · If symptom does NOT repeat, replace RAM card. · If symptom repeats, replace logic board. If no RAM card is installed, replace logic board.

Computer beeps three times at startup

3 Computer beeps four times at startup 1

Four beeps indicates a bad checksum for the remainder of the boot ROM. The ROM (which is located on the logic board) is bad. 2 If a RAM card is installed in the expansion slot, remove it and put in known-good and compatible RAM and restart. · If symptom does NOT repeat, replace RAM card. · If symptom repeats, replace logic board. 3 If no RAM card is installed, replace logic board.

No dial tone 1 2 3 4 5 6 Verify known-good analog (not digital) telephone line. Verify known-good RJ11 telephone cable. Verify RJ11 cable is not plugged into Ethernet port. Inspect RJ11 connector and modem port for pin damage. Verify RJ11 telephone cable is firmly installed in the modem port. If using Apple Remote Access 3.0, select Ignore Dial Tone in the Modem control panel. If the modem connects with this setting selected, try another phone line. If using a terminal or communications program, enter atx1 to disable tone detection. To reset the modem back to the factory settings, enter atz. Verify cable connector from RJ-11 board is plugged into modem correctly. Replace the RJ-11 board and connector cable. Replace modem. Verify modem is properly installed and plugged in. Verify correct modem software is installed and selected. Reset PRAM and perform a clean installation of system software. To reset PRAM, press the power button, then hold down the Option-Command-P-R keys until you hear the startup chime at least one additional time after the initial startup chime. Replace modem. Use the Modem Country Selector utility to make sure the modem is set to the correct country. Make sure the correct driver is installed and the correct CCL is selected and that they are not corrupted. If necessary, reinstall the driver and/or CCL. Try another cable and phone jack. If problem persists, reinstall system and modem software. Use the Modem Country Selector utility to make sure the modem is set to the correct country. The phone line may have too much noise. If the user has a second line, try that one. The user should contact their local phone company and request their line be checked. Check to make sure the TCP/IP control panel is correctly configured for the user's Internet Service Provider. If the TCP/IP control panel is not configured correctly, it may connect but won't be able to access any sites. Sometimes online services use different servers for dial-up/

Use the Modem Country Selector utility to make sure the modem is set to the correct country. Make sure dialup software is fully installed and all required extensions are enabled. If necessary, reinstall the dialup software and provide the necessary information for setup. Use the Modem Country Selector utility to make sure the modem is set to the correct country. Try another cable and phone jack. The phone line may be too noisy to handle the higher modem speeds. Try connecting at a slower speed or use a generic CCL file. (If you are familiar with the CCL script language, you can edit the modem script to force a connection at a lower speed.) If the problem continues, contact the phone company to report the bad phone line. Verify that the user has call waiting on that phone line. With call waiting active, an incoming call can interrupt the connection. Disable call waiting using AT commands placed in the init string of the dialup application. Usually the string is *70. There may be a problem with the server to which you are connecting. Servers sometimes develop problems that disconnect users without explanation. Try calling back later or use an alternate number if one is available. Check with the Internet Service Provider. Reseat the modem. If the problem persists, replace the modem.
