Re: Applecare for Powerbooks (extended warranty)
On 12/17/04 11:39 PM, Amber [EMAIL PROTECTED] Spew into the Cybertrough: I wish I had the luxury of being able to buy a new one if something happens to this one but I don't. This is a year old G4 Powerbook. Of course, I am hoping that nothing goes wrong with it, with or without Applecare, because I have no alternate system and I certainly don't have the money to buy an equivalent replacement or to obtain another system while I'm waiting for it to be repaired. I have heard Applecare also tends to be pretty fast with repairs - sometimes faster than if I were take it to a local authorized service center. It's *always* faster than taking it to a local center. Portables have to be sent to apple For repair if they are under warranty. That is a rule. Even for a certified tech. So sending it to Apple directly is the fastest way. That way you are skipping the middle man. Apple also turns the machine around the same day they get it. Meaning that if they receive it in the morning it will be shipped back out to you the same day fixed. The total turn around time can be as little as 72 hours. It's freaking beautiful. Kyle H.

If not, I *know* the Sourceforge freeware driver works. Take a look at Ken Vann's excellent wireless list for your compatibility questions. http://www.home.earthlink.net/~kjvann/ Do you have the right settings selected regarding the card and the port in OS X? Bob Who is the vendor of the card? My Classic Gold card (802.11b) is an Orinoco card. If you're familiar with the history of the original Lucent wireless technology, Lucent became (I'm not sure this is the exact order, but the names are correct) Orinoco, then Agere (moved to Agere Systems under the Orinoco name), then Avaya, and Proxim. To the best of my knowledge the same Lucent technology and the Hermes chipset is used in all of the cards sold by the above companies -- and several others as well -- **until** the some of the Proxim cards. But according to the URL below, even the Proxim 8420 and 8430 should work at least with the IOXperts driver. A site I rely on heavily for chipset and driver information (although it does not cover the sourceforge driver) is: http://home.earthlink.net/~metaphyzx/Wireless.htm If its the Proxim card (or a number of other brands) it may be of a newer type that neither the SourceForge nor the IOExperts drivers support. You need to start with the model # of your card. Then you can go to the URL immediately above and see what chipset it has and what drivers will support it. I bought a Proxim Orinoco Gold and had no luck with either Can you be more specific on what you mean by had no luck with either? What exactly were you trying to connect to? I have found that the WiFi paradigm can be filled with so many gotcha's that it's not funny. I usually recommend that folks set up things with the absolutely simplest configuration (no passwords, no WEP, no closed network etc), and try to connect to a known working Apple Base Station network if at all possible. That eliminates a lot of the unknown snakepits that will drive a new user crazy. Once things are working on the elementary level, then you can proceed on to passwording, WEP, MAC address filtering, and other complexities. There is an excellent step-by-step initial setup list at http://www.penmachine.com/techie/airport1400.html. Although it refers to the Orinoco software, the same principles apply when using Apple's software or a 3rd-party driver. , the card is not built on the older chipset, and is sadly PC-only at present. I don't know if Proxim has come out with any new 802.11b cards in the past few years or not, but according to the Wirless.htm URL all Proxim 11b cards should work with the IOXperts and/or the Sourceforge drivers -- except for the Skyline USB card. As Laurent has indicated numerous times, it's not the brand name on the card that's the critical issue, it's the chipset that it uses that determines its compatibility. Ken Vann has an entire section (5.3) on his Web site referencing URLs that have technical, or owner's, documentation for the Lucent/Orinoco/Agere /Avaya/Proxim cards. Maybe something there would help you. http://www.home.earthlink.net/~kjvann/ I'm pretty beat tonight. I hope I have made sense and not messed up what I was trying to say.

Have you checked the System Profiler in OS X to see if the Gold Card shows up there (it won't be identified as an Orinoco card, or perhaps not even as a WiFi card, I don't remember for sure, but it should show up in the proper en slot -- see below). I'll ask you the same question that I asked Andrew earlier in this thread -- exactly what kind of network connection are trying to make? Is it through a 3rd-party WAP or an Apple ABS?

Re: Applecare for Powerbooks
Unfortunately we folks in Florida can't take part in AppleCare. It seems as though there were some unscrupulous folks floating around after Hurricane Andrew back in 1992 and they ruined it for all of us. As a result, there was a law passed in Tallahassee prohibiting certain extended warantee's among which AppleCare was included. While it has made us safer in Florida to some extent, I sure wish I could buy AppleCare. Not that I've ever needed it, my Macs have been rock solid hardware wise and software wise since I switched back in 2001. I know this doesn't really 'matter' but I thought I'd let you all know.

Re: Orinoco Gold and TiBook G4
From: Andrew F. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Who is the vendor of the card?

I bought a Proxim Orinoco Gold and had no luck with either, the card is not built on the older chipset, and is sadly PC-only at present. Andrew Hello everyone. Before you purchase any Orinoco card to use on the Mac, download the Orinoco Selection Guide. Only the 8410-wd and 8410-jp (Orinoco Classic Gold Cards) support the Mac under the Classic OS, and the Sourgeforce driver supports this card under OS X. PC Cards are price sensative and vendors do change chip sets in order to shave pennies from the cost of manfacturing. A good example is Belkin taking the 802.11g card which used the Broadcom Chip set and replacing it with a Ralink Technologh Inc chip set. While there web site still list it a Mac compatabe (using Airport Software under OS X) the new ones comming off the assembly line are not and need aditional software.

So the Wallstreet fits a larger drive, but at least mine didn't come with one. (That measurement has gotta be the height, right?

Re: Applecare for Powerbooks (extended warranty)
Apple also turns the machine around the same day they get it. Meaning that if they receive it in the morning it will be shipped back out to you the same day fixed. The total turn around time can be as little as 72 hours. It's freaking beautiful. Agreed. I shipped mine to Apple on a Wednesday, they received it Thursday AM, repaired the hinge assembly, and shipped it out to me the same day. I had it back by 10 AM Friday morning. As I was away on vacation on Wednesday and Thursday, I really didn't lose any use of my laptop, except for Thursday night. Color me impressed.

Re: Applecare for Powerbooks (extended warranty)
We are all different. I have backup machines (a Lombard and a Windows laptop), plus I back up religiously onto a large external drive that is readable by both the Mac and PC. I have had computers go down before, and even when I can fix it myself, having another machine to use in the meantime is a lifesaver.

Begginer question... Powerbook vs. iBook
Hello. I'm new in this list and I understand my question may sound too familiar to the members of the forum. But I'm planning to upgrade my system. I acctually own a PPC 9600/300 and it's getting stucked in time, poor it... ;) So my idea is starting to work with OS X and G4 technology. My application area is sound/video (Pro Tools basically). So my interest is buying a G4 mac. The thing is that I live in Argentina and here it is more diffcult to get this kind of technology for a young professional. Things are quite more expensive in comparisson to US prices for example. Then I've had this thought of buying a Powerbook because it seemed to me very practical; more than a PPC in terms of commodities. Searching and looking for prices I've seen that iBooks are considerably cheaper than Powerbooks. My first conclusion was Powerbooks must be more prepared to perform in professional areas with no touble. But yet a 1GHz iBook is very tempting for me. Then finally my question: what are the biggest differences between this two computers? what are the things iBooks cannot perform? are iBooks less upgradable besides RAM and factory built HD?

Re: Begginer question... Powerbook vs. iBook
First of all, I've heard of electronics being seriously overpriced where you're at, so if possible I'd look into some alternative options of buying your new computer. How are the prices online at the apple store compared to other places? As far as comparing the two, the iBook is surprisingly close in performance to the powerbook. With the powerbook what you're basically paying extra money for are more ports, a couple of options and a faster bus speed. The iBook will get heavy sound editing done, with the addition of a peripheral or two, but the powerbook is more apt for the task. I would keep in mind, though, that I've read that the latest powerbooks audio out capabilities aren't all that great, so alot of people end up buying audio in/out peripherals anyway for their powerbooks. In the end, the choice s yours. A desktop will always be more capable of sound editing than a laptop, but either G4 books should do what you need them to, with some added work on your part.

Re: Applecare/education discounts
What is the general rule of thumb regarding educational discounts from Apple? I was a student when I bought my Powerbook so obviously I got that on a discount. No problem. I thought you had to be a full time student when you purchased Applecare but when I called them (Applecare) yesterday, they didn't seem to care that I won't be returning to school until after Christmas. I am just wondering if they could later void the warranty if they at some point asked for proof that I was attending full time when I purchased it ? If so, I would rather pay for the full Applecare. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Specs aside, it's what feels good that matters most. - Dan. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Wireless keyboard/mouse (was G4 AlBook as a desktop ???
I have used a Logitech KB/Mouse combo (and separately) with no problems, also have hooked up a USB Wacom Tablet on occassion works just fine. Go to an Office/Electronics Mega store (if possible) and try a few out. Everybody has a different preference for feel and response. I have been happy with Logitech and Microsoft products. I dislike the feel of the Apple keyboard that came with my new iMac so the KB and mouse never make it out of the box for long. The folks at work love the Apple mouse and can't understand how I could use a Multi-button mouse or a Trackman.

Applecare for Powerbooks
Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2004 13:13:25 -0600 From: Dyna [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Friday, December 17, 2004, at 11:13 AM, Amber wrote: The end of the first year of warranty is fast approaching for my G4 Powerbook and I am looking at have to pay almost $400.00 to extend it via Applecare. Many/most people seem to find Applecare money well spent on Powerbooks . It really depends on how much longer you plan on keeping it and how dependable it needs to be and can you afford expensive unexpected repairs on a machine you need ASAP. I've been trying to suppress a rant on the declining quality of Apple's products and electronics and consumer products in general for about a week now, and can bite my tongue no longer. I hear you :-) I like to buy the best I can afford and hope and expect it to last a long time. I hate buying stuff that doesn't last and that isn't worth repairing when it breaks. I expect electronic stuff to last a minimum of 5 years and motor vehicles at least 10. I have a 20 year old Ten-Tec ham radio transceiver that works fine, and put over a 1000 trouble free miles a month on a 1983 BMW motorcycle this year. I also have a '98 Ford Ranger in the fleet that needed one repair (rear brake linings) in 80,000 miles and an '84 BMW motorcycle that has had no major repairs in 100,000 miles. In my house I have 1985 Epson, 1990 Panasonic, and 1995 Mitsubushi laptops that still work, and on my desk sits an '99 vintage 333 mhz. iMac that has never failed me. My Peaches, 1939 Hallicrafters transceiver . One repair a new tube in apox 1982 but I've only owned it for 35 years ;-) 1958 Mercedes Benz 190 Sedan. Apox $800.00 in repairs in the last 20 plus years since my Grandfather gave it to me. It was a daily driver for him since new and 12 years for me! Volvo 240 1985 sedan 220,000 miles still runs as good as new. Umax J700 Mac clone machine 1997 model Zero repairs but a fair amount of upgrades. Runs all day most every day currently running OSX 10.3.7 with 533 MHz CPU great work horse. Pismo Powerbook other then close to needing a new battery has been great. No Apple care bought nor needed(I got lucky). That's the peaches, and now the lemons: A 2001 Yaesu ham transceiver that is broken beyond repair after less than 2 years service. A 1992 BMW motorcycle that needed $3000 worth of repairs before the warranty expired. That bike now spends half it's time sitting in my garage waiting 'til i can get a good deal on used parts to fix it's latest failures. And Apple? lots of snips taken: Lemons for me: To many to remember I guess but not as many as a lot of people. I do my homework and make every effort to buy quality for the best price I can find. About the time the G3 PowerBook production was winding down Apple limited AppleCare protection to the first 3 years of life. I take that action as an admission that Apple's hardware is now so unreliable and difficult to repair (compare hard drive replacement on a Pismo to the latest AlBook) that they'd lose money if they guaranteed it past 3 years. Apple may also be trying to manipulate if not force us to buy a new Mac every 3 years. I paid $2200 for my Pismo only because I expected a quality product that would last at least 5 years. After 3 years I am left with a laptop so unreliable I don't take it out of my house. Suffice to say, I won't be waiting in line at the Apple Store to buy a new PowerBook or probably anything else Apple. Dyna Your right about what Apple is doing. Not that I approve in any way but other companies are doing the same. See your example of BMW now compared to a few years ago. What are you going to do? Buy a Dell the next time around? Good luck with that ;-) People are still bitching about Apples stuff being too expensive and it has always cost them market share. Needing to buy a warranty rather then it coming with one has always pissed me off. It is a fact of life in competing in todays market it seems. Most people buy on price and so do I . I've found that with careful shopping I can usually get the good stuff for the same price as the crap. When the guy at Fry's asks me about the extended warranty . I always feel like saying I don't want to buy anything that needs one but what good will that do me and how can you tell. It does seem there are fewer and fewer companies with quality products...wait a min everything is made in China while Americans are out of work...go figure. later Will -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Pismo failed ram?
Dyna, You might consider to upgrade your Pismo to G4. This may or may not solve the problem, but if it does, will give you a much better computer. I did this recently through Daystar, and after a few problems, (backside cache not recognized - new daughtercard sent under warranty) I have a much faster computer. (Plus a new 7200 rpm drive which helps) Talk to them about your problem - see if the upgrade might solve it. As it looks like you are going to be up for some expense anyway, the upgrade might be a useful 'life extender' There are other companies doing this upgrade, but Daystar seems to have more good things being said about it. Good luck. On 18/12/2004, at 2:57 AM, G-Books wrote: I suspected heat failed RAM too So I experimented with the old RAM only and the new RAM only and had freezes either way. I also experimented with switching RAM between the lower and upper slots and saw no difference. Interestingly, I did once get an error message saying the processor cache memory or something like that was malfunctioning. Of course, that is not an easy item to replace. It could then be the processor daughtercard, then. If your Pismo is a 400MHz, you might be able to find a replacement on eBay for around $60-$70. I've got a 500MHz a few months ago for around $130, which reminds me I still have that 400MHz one somewhere. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

ibook bright spots
I own a 933Mhz G4 14 iBook which I bought back in May 2004. Over time, bright spots started appearing on the LCD. Nothing that obstructs the function of the lappy, but it is quite distracting. I am aware that this problem is common among Power books, but haven't heard anything about it appearing in ibooks. While the ibook is still under warranty, and I've purchased applecare, I don't really want to part with my iBook for a week. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Or is this an issue that only Apple Techs can handle? Simon -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
