iBook G4 Keyboard Issue

Hello all I am new to the beta and I have to say I am enjoying it a lot. That is to say I am enjoying it a lot on my PC. I also have an iBook G4, which I was hoping to play the game on the go. The only issue I am having here is when I play the game it runs fine and loads up fine, but I am unable to move my character. The game just beeps like an error sound, but my mouse works fine. I was wondering if anybody has experienced this issue with their Mac or know of what it could be. I just want to thank you all in advance.

wow, sounds like this guy really needs help, this may not be the best place to start asking. I'd try to contact potco staff directly.

Yeah I just went ahead and sent them an email directly. I reported it to the tech website, but I do not know if I would hear back from that or not. So I just went ahead and covered both areas.

Need an INTEL based Mac.

I have a Mac myself, but it is Intel based. The game will only work with Intel based Macs.

I believe the G4 iBook isn't Intel Based. It's a PowerPC CPU -- a PowerPC processor.

That would be your main reason for it not working.

Hope I helped!

Well according to the specs that are posted on the Disney website it says that G4 and Intel Macs are supported by the game.

Mac:
OS 10.4.6 (Tiger)
PowerPC G4 or any Mac with any Intel processor
512 MB RAM
700 MB free disk space
Broadband connection

Hmm. Is your G4 iBook a PowerPC3 or a PowerPC4 processor? I only ask because I know some of the earlier model G4iBooks had PowerPC3 processors instead of the 4's in the later half of the year.

Have you tried installing and re-intstalling?

I haven't tried re-installing yet, but its a PC4... I tried hooking up an external keyboard, but that did not seem to help at all... Maybe it has something to do with it being on a laptop I am not sure. Disney has not replied to my email yet, so I have no advice from them yet.
