[QUOTE="davemathews39, post: 1829188, member: 403244"] I think its a 2009 model at least thats what it says, it was running os x 10.6 and was having problems with wifi , when wifi connected, safari wouldnt search, when i tried to put it in recover, it somehow downgraded to 10.5, when i shut it down for the night and tried to bootup the next morning it went into bootloop. since then, it wont go into recovery or safe mode anymore, i booted into single user mode and ran fsck -fy and it came back as every ok, ive tried to boot hold option, but no other boot shown, ive tried downloading install disc online and burn to usb flashdrive but not sure if im doin it in right format, ive tried booting from open firmware from usb and just get blank screen with circle and line through, i reset prams and booted in vebrose nothing helps, still stuck in boot loop, if any mac os x 10.5 will work , then ill buy one off ebay, just tryna make sure it doesnt have to be specific for ibook, some ive seen says, mac os x 10.for mini, some for mac book pro etc. just dont wanna buy one and it not work [/QUOTE]
