Q: g4 ethernet gigabit battery power trouble
Hello! First of all sorry for my english. I write from Italy. I received a gift: a Powerbook G4 Titanium gigabit ethernet. I really like but it has a problem: the battery charges, but the powerbook does not work if the power adapter is not connected. There are solutions? I can work on the software? I would not spend a lot of money. thanks!
PowerBook, Mac OS X (10.5.5), Powerbook g4 titanium ethernet giga

You can try to get a brand new battery from http://www.macsales.com/
Yes they deliver to Italy. The only real problem is the PRAM battery may also be shot. You try resetting the SMC to see if it helps.
The PRAM should not be reset unless you can verify the PRAM battery itself is under 4 years old.
