Steve Fuller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> suggested the following: "I would use the crossover cable between the two notebooks, and then turn on Personal File Sharing in the Sharing pane of System Preferences. This will enable AFP and then you should be able to see the ibook in the chooser on the WallStreet. -Steve"
I've tried to follow this advice, and have done a Sherlock II search on the Wallstreet II with OS 9.2.2 for "Personal File Sharing" and also for "PersonalFileSharing", and have found no matches for either of them. How do I locate them? ************ On Aug 15, 2005, at 3:35 PM, Stanton Mitrany had asked: Dear List-mate, I didn't get a single response to this inquiry when I posted it a few weeks ago; perhaps you can at least point me in the right direction?! I imagined this was an easy question, but I've never done it, and don't know how. How do I connect two PowerBooks, a Wallstreet II running OS 9.2.2 and an iBook 500, running OS X 10.3.9 to one another, so that I can copy files from one to the other? Here's the equipment I have available to me which might prove useful: - USB A-B cables and a Belkin USB hub - straight and crossover ethernet cables, - D-Link DWL Wireless USB adapter, - 2 USB Bluetooth adapters- a D-Link Bluetooth DBT-120, and a Mitsumi CE0197, - Belkin 802.11B PCMCIA CardBus Wireless Notebook Network Card F506020. I don't know which device and/or cable to use, for what, and how. I don't know whether to attach these before startup, which machine to start first, which control panels to set up on each machine, and in what order, etc. Do any of these units require drivers which may need to be installed in either system? Does one of the machines have to be a master and the other a slave? Does one of the operating systems have to have control over the other? Have you ever done this? Please tell me how! If you really know how, will you please explain it step-by-step? Has someone written a simple guide to how to do this, which I can download & read? I've checked MacHelp for "connecting two (or 2) powerbooks" and have found nothing which seems to address this topic. Also, if you're attempting to respond to this appeal, please be kind enough to copy my email with your answer, to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> since I've been receiving a large percentage of "bounce" messages relating to postings to the list, and therefore, I'm probably not seeing more than one in four or five. Please give me any help you can! At least, please try to point me in the right direction! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom!
