Irez capsure card drivers

2003-02-06 Thread Eric Draht
hello all!

I have a powerbook wallstreet 233 that i've used a capsure card on for a
long time. It's a great, genius little card. I love it to death. However,
i just cleaned my hard drive off and installed os 9.1. Great system!
However, now my capsure card doesn't work. I installed the drivers off
the website, but they were no help. I remeber when i first installed OS
8.6 this exact same thing happened- i finally got the capsure card
drivers from a friend who had the drivers that came with the capsure card
- a far newer version than those on the website. 

The bottom line: The drivers on the website are outdated and don't work.
What i need is.
A: Some way to make these drivers work 
B: Someone who has the capsure drivers install CD to send me the drivers. 

I know they work with OS 9.1, i'm positive they must. Help me
 Thanks in advance,
eric

I have a Lombard with a Macwireless.com card and a wireless Linksys router.

Frayed wiring on Yo-Yo adapter

2003-02-06 Thread Jeff Lentz
When my WS brick was replaced by the Apple recall with a yo-yo style 
adapter, I was concerned that there was inadequate strain relief 
where the cable went into the center of the adapter, and it seems my 
fears were warranted.  I have what appears to be less than half the 
outer braid wires left intact on my yo-yo.  I miss my brick, as its 
wires were enclosed.  The yo-yo has a plastic cover over the wires, 
but it doesn't extend into the center of the adapter and exposes that 
1/16th of an inch to atmosphere, and is where I'm experiencing the 
failure.  Has anyone successfully opened up one of the yo-yo adapters 
without destroying them?

When checking on which drive you'll buy, look for the one with the 
largest cache (8MB or above should be good) - all other things being 
about equal. From the posts here, it appears that smaller cache limits 
the apparent speed of the hard drive. You might look at the Toshiba 
drives, since I think I recall they had one about in the 40GB range with 
a 16GB cache.

Re: Hard drives in new AlBooks - Roxio Toast X

2003-02-06 Thread Mark_PHILIP

Hi Jeremy and friends,
I wanted to ditch Classic for a long time now but I have 2 programs that
need Classic installed before I can apply updaters to them for OSX
compatibility:

1) Roxio Toast 5.2
Install Roxio Toast 5.0 in OS9, apply the 5.2 updater. Reboot in X and use
Toast natively.
2) Adobe Acrobat 5.05
Install Acrobat 5 in OS9, apply the 5.05 updater. Reboot in X and now use
Acrobat natively.

Are there OSX native versions of these programs? Seems a pity to have to
boot 9 just to install these programs and have the whole rigma role of
apply the X updaters...

Thanks in advance,
 Mark.

Lombard and 802.11b/g

2003-02-06 Thread Jonathan Andrew
I've had to face the fact that I need to go wireless, but Apple's 
Airport pages aren't clear on hardware specs.  Can I run an Airport 
card on a vanilla Lombard?  What is the best recommendation out there 
for
a.) a card (for my Lombard's PCMCIA slot, I'm guessing)
b.) cards for a G3 366 tower and a G3 233 (beige) desktop, and
c.) a base station to run either through my Linksys router or to 
route on its own?

thanks for any and all advice.

some networks restrict SMTP in a number of ways.

the machines that cannot send email may be sending through a service 
that doesn't allow email to be sent through it from other domains. For 
instance, my work email must be sent through the work email server 
while I'm physically in the office.

AFAIK, this option is not available on dual-ethernet Airport base 
stations -- the presence of two ethernet ports makes Bridging academic.

3.5 is common but you CAN get 5, usually.

dim your screen, turn off airport, don't use the optical drive -- on 
average, I get about 3 hours on my TiBook 400, but only when I don't do 
these things. When I don't use the optical or airport, and dim the

It is an Airport Extreme base station, running 10.2.3/9.2. Another symptom
is the Pismo can send and receive email fine via Airport regular, and the
computer on the network can receive but not send email to any other domain
other than it's own (rr).

You need to connect the Base Station to the cable modem through the WAN
port.  Otherwise the stateful firewall rules, NAT, etc. will be operating
on the wrong interface.

Although I have not seen that specific printer for a while, 
with laserprinters in general, that type of problem is usually 
related to the cartridge.
I didn't know that they made a PLW  that late--and there were 
a bunch of models so you might check your manual on what you have.
Here are some things that you might do if you can't swap the 
cartridge:  a)  turn down the print density with the print density 
slider thingy on the inside.Sometimes a cartridge just starts 
dumping toner and this tightens it up; Look in your manual though--I 
think that model, you have to turn toward the wide side of the 
symbol--not the narrow side--and this is totally counterintuitive; 
b)  clean everything inside including the wire in the cartridge and 
the wires that twist across the thingy in the middle;;  c)  rock your 
cartridge--end to end  first and then front to back; 4: blow it out 
with air and run clean paper through it.
I am acquainted with versions of that printer and they last 
quite a while, but Buy a used Laserwriter II NTX with appletalk and a 
life expectancy measured in  geological time.

Re: Basic Airport Question

2003-02-06 Thread David M. Ensteness
Use the WAN for the cable modem and the LAN for the local network, the 
WAN port is 10T and the LAN port is 100T, your cable modem will not max 
out 10T so you are better off keeping the faster port for local traffic.

Also, this should not cause the issue you are having with Macs not 
seeing each other ... that must be something else going on.

Do you have the box "enable Ethernet Bridging" in the AirPort admin 
utility checked?

Basic Airport Question

2003-02-06 Thread Stephen Bright
If you want to connect your pbook to the internet and the ethernet network
(of 2 computers and a printer) is it better to connect the Base Station to
the cable modem through the WAN port, or to connect the network to the Base
Station via the lAN port.

Currently I have the base station connected to the cable modem through the
WAN port, and all computers see the internet, but not each other. Thanks,
Stephen

Re: iMac to iBook

2003-02-06 Thread Andre Ruegg
Thanks. I decided to set up the iBook as Laurent has described to be sure I
didn't lose any iBook specific files and/or documentation. I do plan to keep
recent carbon copies of the iBook hard drive on an external firewire drive
for quick restores if ever needed in the future.

Thanks again,

Andre

Printer Problem

Hello Keith:

Always liked that Personal Laserwriter (NT, NTR and LS). You probably 
have a worn out or dirty fuser. Easy to fix. Parts and more advice 
available from:

http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/

Moe, the owner runs forums and has much info catalogued on his 
website to permit further diagnosis. Has kept my printers going for 
years.

Hard disk upgrade for pismo

2003-02-06 Thread Richard Hadfield
Hi Muir,

It will take you about 10 mins and it's dead set easy. If you have the
manual "Setting up your Powerbook" that came with your Pismo just follow
the instructions on page 60.
Just a ordinary Phillips screwdriver is all you need.
And I agree with Stephen an IBM Travelstar GNX (5400 rpm) is the only way
to go. The speed difference is huge:-)

Cheers Richard

Not to mention that I'm sure power draw from the 4200 is somewhat less 
than the 5400. The 17" Albook already has a 'meager' 4.5hr rating, I 
would imagine that Apple didn't want to let the rating slip down even 
further. (although I've never seen anywhere near the 5hr mark on my 
TiBook 667 DVI, 3.5 is my current record I believe...)

according to Apple, it's actually a faster drive than most 5400RPM 
drives because the data density is higher.

I'm guessing it's a cost saving measure. A lot of people won't even 
check, so it's not a big selling point. Therefore, they think they can 
get away with putting a slower HD in. But that might change, 
considering Apple has now put 7200 RPM hard drives in the iMacs. 
They're willing to up the speed of their included hard drives so I 
wouldn't be surprised if at least some of the PowerBooks got 5400 RPM 
drives. iBooks though, not likely.

Printer Problem

2003-02-06 Thread Keith Potter
Hey gang.  Sorry for the topic drift, but I am having troubles with 
the printer I hook up to my G3 Pismo.

The printer in question is an Apple Personal Laserwriter (LS?).  It 
is quite old (I got it in about 1995).  It's starting to print a grey 
stripe down the left hand side of the page, in the margin.  Obviously 
some toner is getting where it shouldn't.  Does anybody know how to fix 
this?

Thanks...

I don't know about your Nokia, but my experience with Nokias is that you
need a special Nokia connector. They like to use proprietary stuff. :-(
Check their web page. They tend to have a lot of stuff there.

Suggest you zap the PRAM make sure you get the start-up chime at
least twice before letting it finish boot process. For more thorough
zap of PRAM might try TechTool I think they have a shareware version

Hard drives in new AlBooks

2003-02-06 Thread Steve Fuller
I was looking over the specs for the new AlBooks on Apple's site, and I
noticed that they are using 4200RPM hard drives by default in these
notebooks. Does anyone know of any reason that they are doing this other
than cost? Is it heat or noise? When they charge $3300 for their high
end notebook, I guess I kind of expected them to use higher end
components (ie 5400RPM drives).
