Video Stream messeges?
Hello All, I just heard that you can attach a video stream to an e-mail but only in Windoze, not Mac's. Is this correct and why?

Card DWL-G650+ Wireless
Hi. I have a PowerBook G4/400 and recently I invested in a wireless router, Dlink-614+. It works great connected to an Ethernet cable. I tried DLink wireless cards, installed software from the internet but I haven't had any success at all establishing a wireless connection. I tested the DWL-G650+ card, but I didn't succeed in getting any of the green lights on it to go on. I tried OWC, IOXperts80211.pkg and Install WirelessDriver.mpkg Question: Has anyone in this community succeeded in getting a Dlink-614+ card to function on a Mac PowerBook? I use MacOS X 10.3, Panther 10.3.3. Thank you in advance for any useful info. /Hans. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

newbie laptop questions
I just got my first mac laptop (wallstreet) and I have some questions. 1. It had OS X 10.2.6 on it when i got it and I want to upgrade to the latest version. I did software update, but 10.2.8 is the highest it seems to go, which is on it now. I have 10.3 on a CD, but it says it can't be installed when i try to run it off the CD. Will software update not allow it to go from 10.2.8 to 10.3? I have XPostFacto (latest version, got it last night), but not sure I'm using it right. 2. How does 'drag-lock' work for the trackpad? 3. Is there no way to be able to right-click with the trackpad? Thanks Rad... -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Greetings, Andre What do you mean exaclty by video stream? A video stream is usually a server providing video over the network while the client plays it in real time. Usually, that means providing the URL to the server's video stream. So, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to provide a URL in an email. If you mean being able to play the video from the email application you're using, then you may be right. I only used Entourage so far and it hasn't the ability to play video streams from an email. Maybe another email application on the Mac would be able to do it. In any case, it's usually just a matter of copying the URL to the video stream into your browser. If by video stream you mean attaching the video file to the message, then, again, I don't see why you would be able to do it from Windows but not from the Mac. It would depend on the size of the file and whether your ISP limits the size of emails you can send. -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelinhttp://nemesys.dyndns.org Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] fear and loathing n.: [from Hunter S.

Re: Meritline External Enclosure Help-Question
You mean to re-initialize the entire hard drive just for one driver? Is it not just possible to install the driver to OS 9 so that it can read this external drive? I've never done the re-initialization and am a bit reticent unless I can't find an easier, simpler way. You shouldn't have to do that. Disk drivers (in the hard disk drive sense) reside in a special partition on the hard drive itself, not somewhere in your extensions folder as would a CD-ROM drive's drivers. When you partition or format a drive in OS 9, Drive Setup automatically writes the drivers to the disk. If you do it in OS X, the drivers needed for OS 9 to recognize the drive may not be written. The solution is to re-initialize the disk making sure the OS 9 drivers get written. But you should be able to boot into OS 9, open Drive Setup, and choose update drivers from the functions menu without having to re-initialize the drive I think.

iBooks vs. the World
I feel that all this talk of the iBooks and G3 units as useful only for light this and that is nonsense. Only a few short years ago, G3 chips were the top of the Mac food chain. At that time G2s were only for light so and so. Fact is, G3s handle heavy work just fine. In some cases, the jobs take a little longer...that's all. In some cases, a G3 will perform even faster. A 900mhz G3 will perform all functions more swiftly than a 500mhz G4, all other elements being equal. So, the real issues in choosing between an iBook and a Powerbook are extended desktop use, professional connectivity and presentation issues, required time to get jobs done, appearance and one other caveat: The iBooks have been suffering from a hinge problem wherein the hinge eventually cuts through the cable bundle that wires the screen to the mainboard. Once cut through, expecially the power cable, it shorts the entire system. That is what has been causing all the MoBo failures in the iBook line. Apple won't admit it, despite their limited recall, and all the discussion sites and boards are speculating about bad mainboards and so on, but it's scissored cable junctions, hands down. As to if the new iBooks have finally addressed this time will tell. But it is an expensive mitigating factor and one I don't want to have to go through again. on 3/26/04 9:52 AM, Nick Marshall [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Date: Fri, 26 Mar 2004 09:07:08 -0800 (PST) Subject: Re: laptop comparison?

Re: Dim Screen on a G3 Series II - fix or replace?
It sounds like the cold-cathode (fluorescent lamp) or the lamp power supply is out. You'll have to figure out how to open up the display housing. Be careful, the voltage from the lamp driver can fry your voltmeter. If you want to measure it, build a resistive attenuator out of a 100 meg and 1 meg resistor.

Re: iBooks vs. the World
Good point. Light this and that changes over time. I remember a heavy load on my 7300/200 was 8 audio tracks with a compressor or eq per track. That same load on my PB 667 is very light. Heavy now is ~24 tracks, compressor, delay or eq on every track, a ton of edits and automation, and a real nice reverb on the master fader. This might be a light load on a PB 1.25 or a piece of cake on a dual g5 2Ghz. That 7300 used to encode 64kbps mp3s at around 1-2x speed. My 667 does the same job at 5-12x. I could edit little 320x240 quicktim movies and a text effect would take about 20sec to render. My 667 doing DV takes about 3sec. As CPUs get more powerful, the load tends to move along with it.

My main concern is the cables so that if I get a replacement screen, it will work 'out of the box'. So far, I 'see' no damage with regards to cables.

Re: Toast 6 DVD
I am trying to burn a DVD with Toast 6 and it keeps telling me that I don't have enough space on this disk and that I need 4.5 Gigs more, but I am getting my files from a 120 Gig HD and the DVD is only an hour long. How do I get it to read the 120 Gig external Firewire drive instead of looking at the startup drive for free space? Tom -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Wireless woes with a Apple Airport card
I am having the hardest time going wireless. I still need a little help. I have installed the card in Pismo. It is recognized, and on the menubar. it shows a signal, shows the base station id, etc, but I can't connect. I am using a D-Link DI-514 router via cable modem. I called the D-link support people and after half an hour of suggestions they decided it was an OS X issue (10.2.3). Can any resident wireless wizards out there help out this wireless nincompoop?
