Re: Oh mega crap
Hmmm, nope, sorry. Once it's been downloaded, you have to purchase it again if you want to download it again. Or if there is a problem with it, you can contact the iTunes Music Store customer support and they will usually credit you with another download for the same song. I did it a few times after downloading a song that wouldn't play correctly. You're right. I would've sworn that I read it's possible. Pity. Kind of strange, too, since they probably have your full download history anyway, and it's against the idea of pay once, own forever. On the other hand, iTunes MS is not a subscription service...

Re: Apple menu additions
There is a way to somehow reproduce this behaviour in Mac OS X, that requires no extra software: create a folder, name it whatever you choose, say Apple Menu. Put aliases to stuff you would like to have on your Apple Menu. Drag this folder to the Dock (unfortunately, you can only put it at the end closest to the trash can). There you have your Apple Menu in the Dock. You can add or delete from your Apple Menu folder at will and changes will be reflected immediately, as in the original version. Luis Sequeira Luis, Have you tried that yourself? I just gave it a go, initially trying with an alias of my hard drive, thinking I could easily navigate to any folder on it. However, the Dock doesn't take it. I've tried with a simple folder, no go. It seems the Dock will only accept applications or documents, no folder. Or am I missing something? -Laurent. -- Laurent, I have dragged my Applications folder to the Dock and it works, *But* I have to either click and hold or control-click. I forgot to mention this (I actually don't use it that much). It produces a hierarchic menu (in a brief test I went up to six levels of nested folders :-)). Remember, it MUST go in the section of the dock where the trash can is. You can't just put it beside your documents (or it is rejected, which, it appears, is what happened to you). I am running Panther, but I think it should work in Jaguar also (but don't have any Jaguar running mac to test it). Luis -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Ram in a Wallstreet
There's no RAM 'on board' on any G3 series Powerbook. The Kanga is a G3 PowerBook. It has 32-Mb RAM on the logic board. Both posters are right... The expression G3 SERIES Powerbook does not include the Kanga; and all G3 SERIES Powerbooks have no ram onboard. And the Kanga IS a G3 Powerbook and has ram onboard.

I found the instructions at http:///caslis.com/mac/ibook/ibdrive.html to be invaluable. This site IS invaluable, simply for the location of the plastic tabs, etc. I think I used an old credit card to slide and 'pop' the plastic without breaking anything. There are a LOT, repeat LOT of screws to remove, and definite order to replacement. I have a method that really helps me. I get a bunch of different colored permanent markers, and then when I remove a screw, I color both the top of the screw and the hole it came from with a color and drop it in a muffin pan cup. With each screw, I carefully compare it to what I've already removed before, and if it matches one I've already removed, I use the identical color and drop it in the same cup, but if it's different, I choose a new color and new muffin cup. I don't color the exterior screws that are visible, only the interior ones. It takes a little while, but when you're done you'll see there are only about 6 or 7 different screws total. Reassembly is super easy, just match the colors and screw. It goes very fast, and any hole that's missing a screw is easy to see. You never replace the wrong screw in the wrong hole. Simple instructions: Place iBook in front of you. Remove everything that isn't a hard drive. Place new HDD on table in front of you. Re-assemble iBook around drive. :-) Sort of like replacing the PRAM battery in a 540... I did a 520c PRAM battery by using a dremel to enlarge the holder area a little and then used standard RadioShack thicker larger batteries (same voltage) that should have at least twice the life of the originals, plus only cost $3 for two! It was such a hassle I definitely wasn't going to spend a fortune on the real battery or EVER do it again. It's been two years and still going. On the iBook HD subject, any ATA will be OK. I got a standard 4,200 RPM 60 GB for $84 shipped from www.pcmicrostore.com, but I think they're a little more now? There are 5,400 RPM and even 7,200 RPM drives that are more expensive and proportionally quicker. They have a 40 GB 5,400 for $89 and a 60 GB for $115. Good luck!

They told me I should be able to use Netscape, but that didn't work for me; the only browser I can use that works at all in pre-X OS now is Mozilla.

Re: LaCie drive forcesleeps TiBook 400
Anyone know what this can be about? I sleep my TiBook 4oo with powercord in, insert a cordpowered firewiredrive and the machine refuses to wake up. It's not off, but HD seems to not spin up, just kinda sims about and display is dark. Three finger salute with drive disconnected, machine boots up and just before logging in I sleep it again, inserts the drive, it wakes up and I login and copy my files, eject the drive, sleeps it again, remove the drive and now the machine plays dead again. Another forced restart and everything is normal. Now, what conclusions are the to make here? I couldn't find much in the system log. This was discussed elsewhere, the solution was don't plug/unplug USB or firewire devices while asleep, it causes coma. Not fun but its the only workable solution so far.

Re: OT-trouble with webpages loading
Snip I can't even get the contact us page to load to ask PayPal whatssup! If need be can anyone contact me offlist to help me fix this, its probably something wrong with my settings...other websites load just fine. Kristina Hi Kristina, here is some info on why you are having problems. I originally posted this to a yahoo group I belong to. Paypal and its parent eBay upgrade their software (the new eBay 2.0) on or about June 5, 2004. They no longer fully support Mac OS 9 browsers. Their software is designed to work with Windows computers only. They wont admit this, but that is what has happened. Here is what I have found out that does not work with Paypal. iCab, cannot change funding source, it gives you a new page asking to add a new bank account. Unable to complete payments. Cannot send a trouble report by their web based system, buttons dont work when you try to send the report. Prior to this upgrade, iCab worked in all functions. iCab version 2.9.7 2.9.8 IE, pages dont load, buttons dont work, this varies from day to day as Paypal changes the coding on each page. Unable to complete payments. Prior to this upgrade, IE works in all functions. IE version 5.1.7 Opera, will work but I dont like it. Opera v6.0.3 Netscape, have have tried it, seems to work ok, but was advised by Paypal support that it has problems also. Netscape v7.02 In eBay, iCab will lock up computer with large amounts of disk acitivity (memory usage increases about 36mb per each open window or tab) when you have more that 3 tabs open. This expierence was with a PB1400/G3/466 upgrade and OS 8.6 9.1 and a iMac/rev a, with OS8.6 and 256mb ram (with iMac its about 5 tabs open before I get problems). With more than three tabs open, it can take up to 5 minutes of disk acativity to open or close a tab, as the computer starts uning VM. The new Ebay 2.0 also included new and increased advertising for users. When I created filters to cut down on some of the advertisments, ebay started downloading 5k and 10k PDF files which were ads. I deleated the filters and removed the PDF viewer in iCab to stop this.No other web site I have been to has ever done this. Prior to eBay v2.0 upgrade this was not a problem. Its important to note that of all the browsers for the Mac and OS9 or below, only iCab is still being upgraded. A good reason to suport shareware. There are thousands if not millions of Mac users with G3 and G4 machines runing various flavors of OS 9 or below. These users do not want to upgrad to OSX, some cannot upgrade, but their Mac's are fully capable of surfing the web. There is no reason not to suport these users. This is not a problem where your machine is underpowered, this is a coding problem. Please call Paypal customer service line and let them know you want them to suport Mac's PayPal US toll-free at: 1-888-221-1161 or please call 1-402-935-2107. Avrage hold time 30 minutes. If you are going to set up a ebay store, I would talk the some merchants that use PayPal. Here is a link to a PayPal developer fourm. Discussion about the changes in PayPal service that makes browsers unusable. http://www.paypaldev.org/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=29 I would try to use Netscape v7 for your computer and see if it is any better.

Re: OT-trouble with webpages loading
OK, so this answers my question about the Netscape ISP not willing to support Mac. As far as OS 9 being dead I guess you will have to stick me in the ground with it because after spending a BIG chunk of change on audio hardware that works just great under the older OS's, it will be a long long time before I spend another Big chunk of change to upgrade. As far as handwriting on the wall, the only writing I see is monetarily driven. If companies didn't make old products obsolete, and convince us that we need the newest and coolest, they would go out of business. But that is the way of the world!

There's no way your going to get a shinny new G5 for cheap. But you could get a slightly used one on eBay. I saw an ad today, for a Dual 1.8 G5. The person needs to sell it ASAP.

Beware these seeming 'amazing deals' on e-bay; this is a favored scam, offering a really desirable computer system under the pretense, 'I really need to sell it now', 'a friend got it with the Apple discount', etc. Many times they'll want wire transfers only, and there will be other oddities to the auction.

Dance through the OS Xs
I got my PowerBook G3 400 (Pismo) back in August 2000. It was running 9.0.2 then. I have since done the wonderful dance through the OS Xs: 10.0/10.1 (made me cry because I am not a techy at all, NOT ready for prime time), 10.2 Jaguar (at last a real stable, easy to use OS X!!!) and then 10.3 Panther (my love only grows - it runs even faster than Jaguar did!). I have the Tiger disk in the other room (Tiger-prerelease is installed onto our dual G4 450 Power Mac - we are small developers) and I may install it on the Pismo after I get back from Macworld Expo San Fran. OR (more likely) I will FINALLY upgrade my PowerBook. After 4 and a half years, I think I deserve a new computer that can run the newest OS with lightening speed (Halo, here I come...). I have a 8600 in the back room in case I want to run OS 8.1, 8.6 or 9.1 or my old but very good SCSI HP scanner. I have a PB 540 in the kitchen running 7.5.5 nicely as my recipe book. We all cohabitate quite nicely.

Re: Upgrading Hard Disk + OS 9 and OS X partition anecdote
I make it a point to not install OS 9 drivers. The few apps I use are the 4D 6.8 compiler and Loop app Infinity, which can run under Classic. Besides those there is nothing I need in OS 9 and I don't want to waste my time there. I even turn down support for OS 9 problems as I can't be bothered and OS X put new demands all the time upon me. But I kinda regret it because the errors was typically both more common and easier to fix than OS X problems. For some reason more people were prepared to pay for fixing them as well. That might have been the stronger economy back then, however. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Steven Haack Subject: Re: OT-trouble with webpages loading I would suggest upgrading to 9.2.1 It is the most stable of all version prior to 10.2 and above FWIW Shaack I have heard this before. I may re-install OS9 on my Lombard 400 since it's been more prone to freezing than in the past. I've also installed Quicktime 6 which I've heard may cause problems. I tried going into Open Firmware and re-setting nvram mostly just to see how it worked. I didn't even know I had OF on this computer till I saw it mentioned here. Anyway if I decide to re-install is there any reason to go to 9.2.2? I seem to recall doing it so the installer for a Skyline wireless card would run but since I'm no longer using that card I could stop at 9.1.1. I certainly don't think OS9 is dead, it still does everything I want to including e-bay and paypal.

PB G4/400 freezes suddenly. Heat? (wasRe: LaCie drive forcesleeps TiBook 400)
It just got Worse! Three times since this drive encounter my whole machine have frozen 4+ times. It just freeze and there is nothing you can do except the three finger salute. There is no log of anything in the OS, indicating hardware failure. I did a Open Firmware set defaults, reset nvram reset all. This didn't improve anything. Then I popped up the keyboard and discovered that the connection cable from the PCMCIA slot had been disconnected from the motherboard. I reinserted it hoping this would solve matters. I think it froze four times since, one of them booting into single mode and stopped just after the first 20 lines. All of this because I pop in a firewire drive during sleep? Or did it just cause already broken things to surface? The new thing with the drive was that it was the first firewire unit I have used that needed bus power. Maybe this put some toll on the motherboard or something? Hmm, one thing I seem to notice is that my fan isn't running as far as I can tell. Maybe it stopped? How do one force start the fan? Will the Apple hardware test CD, that came with the machine, test the fan? If it doesn't, then maybe this is a heat problem? Any ideas on how to verify the fan operation or other ideas to solve this problem? I tried Temperature Monitor, but unfortunately only the HD SMART controller is supported on my Powerbook G4 400 and I noticed that when crashes occur the temp is 43° C/109.2°F after rebooting. The first troublefree time it's at 39°C to 42°C. Mikael Byström said earlier: Anyone know what this can be about? I sleep my TiBook 4oo with powercord in, insert a cordpowered firewiredrive and the machine refuses to wake up. It's not off, but HD seems to not spin up, just kinda sims about and display is dark. Three finger salute with drive disconnected, machine boots up and just before logging in I sleep it again, inserts the drive, it wakes up and I login and copy my files, eject the drive, sleeps it again, remove the drive and now the machine plays dead again.

Browser? I am using IE 5.1.7 On OS 8.6 why upgrade when it was working fine last spring? They told me I should be able to use Netscape, but that didn't work for me; the only browser I can use that works at all in pre-X OS now is Mozilla. (I'm booted in 9.x much of the time owing to problems I'm having with X.) Paypal pages load like molasses in Mozilla but they do work. Beverly That is strange since I have various computers running various OS's, 8.6,9.0.4, and 9.2.2. I use netscape 7.02 without problems at paypal. Sometimes at ebay it kind of times out but if I turn off everything - dsl modem, router and the computer it works again at ebay without any problems. Mozilla and IE 5.1.7 never give me problems at the ebay site or at paypal. However, I will never use IE when I'm making financial transuctions. Pete. __ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: Dance through the OS Xs
Not being an expert, I will paraphrase others: Classic had many versions, each one better than the previous. OSX has very startling differences, effectively an entirely new OS in 10.1, 10.2, 10.3.

Re: OS options for Lombard 400, is 9.2.1 better than 9.2.2
OS 9 is terrific when you want to play Marathon as well, which sucks under Classic. Andrew On 1/6/05 9:31 PM, Andrew in Ann Arbor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Steven Haack Subject: Re: OT-trouble with webpages loading I would suggest upgrading to 9.2.1 It is the most stable of all version prior to 10.2 and above FWIW Shaack I have heard this before. I may re-install OS9 on my Lombard 400 since it's been more prone to freezing than in the past. I've also installed Quicktime 6 which I've heard may cause problems. I tried going into Open Firmware and re-setting nvram mostly just to see how it worked. I didn't even know I had OF on this computer till I saw it mentioned here. Anyway if I decide to re-install is there any reason to go to 9.2.2? I seem to recall doing it so the installer for a Skyline wireless card would run but since I'm no longer using that card I could stop at 9.1.1. I certainly don't think OS9 is dead, it still does everything I want to including e-bay and paypal. I imagine at some point I'll want an application that requires X (Or I'll replace the Lombard with something that comes with X). Either way I'm in no hurry to climb that learning curve until I have to. After all my really important data is on a DOS 5.0 palmtop that has locked up less than half a dozen times in the last 12 years. It's not powerful, it's not sophisticated, it's certainly not state of the art but it works, it's too stupid to harbor malware and it's stone ax reliable. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
