why waste time to figure it out urself.
if it is only 9months old, meaning you have 3month + of 1st year warranty.
go send it back to Apple can get a check-up done on ur iBook.

wei's absolutely right - send it back to Apple and get them to figure it out for u - except I'll recommend u back up all important data beforehand. Who knows, u may just walk out with a new MacBook instead? *grins*

iBook G4 I presume? What OS are you using? How much RAM do you have? If you don't have enough RAM (and enough HDD space) you iBook can slow to a crawl or freeze/hang. That or overheating itself can cause your iBook to hang.

When working on notebooks using processor intensive apps like Illustrator, Photoshop, use something to lift up the back part of your iBook so that heat can dissipate. It also helps to work in an aircon room.

yup,ibook G4. its 1.33 1Gram...just 30gig...is it bcoz of that?
should i go the apple and ask for chekup?

wei,dunno where to go la..is the apple in mid valley can?

i chek my ibook waranty on the web

got problem.i bought this ibook from sumone,complete with evrything.The box,cd's and all.
he says the waranty is the serial record.
but
i dunno bout the "sales receipt" and he never mention bout it.

shouldn't be any problem. just bring it to any Apple Center. If one refuse to help, bring it to another one. There's no reason they can't service your iBook. It's clearly stated that it's under warranty.

If you're not convenient to travel, you can also talk to the technician via phone. they can help to varified your warranty status. And advice you how & where to send in the ibook.

At the mean time you might want to request for the receipt from your seller. Also the place he/she bought it incase he cant provide the original receipt. You can still track back from the reseller. I sent my PB for servicing without any receipt or what so ever.

artfiq14,
Your warranty should still be valid. Take it to any authorised Apple Centre and u should be able to get them to look into your problems for you.

the guy i bought the ibook from says he lost the reciept.
he bought the ibook at the macstudio in lowyat.

artfiq14,
Maybe there's no need to show receipt when you make a warranty claim? Go ahead and check with the shop. If I call the Apple shop in the next few days I'll ask about their warranty policies for you `k?

thanks tinkerbel,thanks alot.really apreciate that
looking foward for it
