Solutions: #1 - I had an Applications CD enclosed with the set of CD's I rec'd with the Tibook. I didn't even notice it until later on ... yes, I'm a dunce. #2 - Had some ongoing conversation with Tony Jayms (thanks Tony) and we compared notes on what we had both rec'd with our Tibooks (he indicated he didn't get an Apps CD). #3 - Had some suggestions about using (Tomeviewer on sys OS 9, and Pacifist for view .pkg files on OS X). The author of Pacifist Charles Srstka gave me a considerable amount of help in answering questions about what I was attempting to do ... I can't really vouch for his software package, but as far as him responding to questions ... he was great. I would assume that his software is equally as good as his email skills. It is a $20.00 shareware cost for a package that may really help save the day if you want to do a specific install. What I did was install Snapz Pro from the Apps CD and upgraded to the full version from Ambrosia software for $19.00 through their special Apple bundled upgrade price. Even though I reinstalled OS 9 and OS X on separate partitions and have run all updaters, I still am back to my original problem of not being able to print wirelessly through an OS X 10.1.5/Asante Aerolan setup to a LaserWriter Select 360. It tells me Appletalk is enable in my network prefs, but when I go to find the printer in print center, it tells me Appletalk isn't active. Hopefully, Jaguar will take care of this ...
