AirPort Extreme/dual-boot Pismo question
Hey all: I'm planning to get a wireless broadband router of some sort in the near future and have been looking into various options. I had pretty much ruled out the AirPort Extreme base station due to compatibility concerns--I still work primarily in OS 9 on my Pismo and would not be able to administer the base station with OS 9's AirPort 2.0.4 software. However, it just occurred to me that I do also run OS X and keep it up to date, which means the AirPort software in my OS X partition is compatible. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but that's all I need to administer the AirPort Extreme base station, right? Doesn't matter that my Pismo has only an AirPort card, and not the AirPort Extreme, right? My related concern was that, even though I could administer the saucer only when booted into OS X, once I have it set up it won't matter if I reboot into OS 9--I would still be able to use the base station as my wireless hub. Once the settings are in place, it doesn't matter if I'm in OS 9 or OS X on the computer that set up the base station; it only matters when I need to perform some administrative tasks, right? All I do is set up the base station to allow connections to people offering the right password and it runs on autopilot (more or less) after that, right? The answers to all these questions seem pretty obvious to me, which is why I think I really ought to double check anyway :-) So, here I am, double checking. I have an 802.11g adapter for my other computer (a ThinkPad) and at some point in the future will probably add an OS X-only iBook or TiBook to my collection, so the Extreme base station (or a 3rd party 802.11g router) seems like the best way to go for the longer term. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Carl -- ** Carl Freire cfreire @ ix.netcom.com cfreire @ uclink4.berkeley.edu -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Pismo G3/Panther 10.3.4 OS 9.1 as classic-can't get 9.1 to 9.2
Thanks... to Shawn Jim for the replies! Is your version of 9.2.1 a retail version? Or is it for a specific machine? Is it a full version or an upgrade? I had a somewhat similar problem on my Dual G4 desktop. I'll try to recall the install sequence. Yes, it's a reatail version it says mac OS 9.2.1 update Cd. I got it in a pack when I purchased OS 9.1 or OX X. Is there any reason why you don't go with 9.2.2? Yes, because I have OS 9.2.1 not OS 9.2.2 i didn't even want to upgrade the classic past OS 9.1, but since I keep getting that notice at every startup now... snip the upgrade CD (9.2.1, IIRC) would not install fully. I had to download or copy the CD contents (don't remember) to the hard drive, restart with extensions off, and run the upgrade from the hard drive. That worked, and I did the downloaded upgrade to 9.2.2. That was the only way I could get to 9.2.2. That was on my Dual G4 Gigabit. May be similar in Kim's case?

wireless for pismo: card or airport?
A friend's pismo (400 Mhz, 320MB RAM) will now be living in the vicinity of a base station, so I'm playing consultant and looking into adding wireless (it doesn't have an airport card now). It's running 10.3.7 (very happily, by the way). As far as I can tell, the advantages of getting an airport card are full support and once it's in there it's in there, doesn't stick out at all, but on the other hand it costs more, needs to be installed (not a big problem), and runs 802.11b rather than g (right?). The various cards run 802.11g, are mostly cheaper and by all reports the broadcom ones seem to work well. The macwireless one is supported, but costs more. I do worry a little about how robust they are when traveling -- maybe the policy will be to remove the card before putting computer in case, and find special case to put card? or is it pretty safe once it's in there? And then there was something about breaking a little plastic tab somewhere on the way to finding how to release the battery (I haven't examined closely, but I think we're talking about the card slot on that one, does she need to fix it if she wants to use a card?) Any thoughts, questions, suggestions, and warnings welcome! thanks in advance, Nina -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

If she wants to use a PCMCIA card, then yes, it would be better to have the lever repaired but I think she would still be able to pull the card to remove it. As far as the choice of a genuine internal AirPort card vs. external ones, even with 802.11g, I think I would go with the AirPort card. Like you said, you stick it in and you forget about it. An external card will always stick out of the PowerBook and is a subject of being hit, which could potentially cause internal problems. I would certainly recommend removing the card before packing the PowerBook in a case. So, you see, she might get faster speed but she would need to pay attention to the card. If she's mostly planning to use wireless to go to the Internet, then there is absolutely no advantage to have the speed of an 802.11g over an 802.11b. On the other hand, if she's planning to move large files (several megabytes) over the network, then an 802.11g would make sense. Still, when I was using my Pismo, whenever I had from time to time the need to move large files, I would just use built-in Ethernet and be done with it... -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Washington, DC, USA Usual disclaimers apply *** -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

St.Steve
Q U O T E D Then did St. Steve raise on high the Holy G5 of Cupertino, saying, 'Bless this, O Lord, that with it thou mayst blow thine Dell enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.' And the people did rejoice and did feast upon the renderings of lambs and toads and tree sloths and fruit bats and orangutans and lickable icons. ... Now did the Lord say, 'Thou in 12 months, thou must count to three. Three shall be the number of the GHz and the number of the GHz shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither shalt thou count two-point-five, excepting that thou then proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the number of the GHz, be reached, then thine will be great and powerful in my sight, however if thou shall have more than one button on thou mouse, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff thine's life.' -- Justin Evers, in his Reading from the Book of Apple, Chapter 4, Verses 16 to 20, attempts to explain why Apple's G5 chips haven't yet hit 3 GHz. Mac legions await release of Apple's new iDunno: With the Consumer Electronics Show in the rear-view mirror, the tech world's attention now turns to the Macworld trade show in San Francisco, where Apple will unveil its first new products of the year. If the rumors prove true, we'll see a $149 iPod, a suite of productivity software called iWork '05, and iLife '05. But will Apple uncrate the much discussed $500 Mac? Doesn't seem likely. Such a machine would be remarkably out of character for a company so focused on high-margin markets. More likely, we'll see CEO Steve Jobs trot out some sort of media server.

Just as Porsche experimented and learned that the 914, a very low cost branded product, was not a good idea (a mistake also made by Lincoln with the Versailles and Cadillac with the Cimarron), Apple should not have a $500 general purpose box under the same brand as their premium lines.

Graphite iBook and iMovie problems
Hey, G-Bookers, I have a venerable graphite iBook (466 mHz, 320M RAM), running iMovie 2.1.2 under Panther. The iBook's hard drive is almost full (less than 1 of its 10Gs is free), but I have a brand-new 120G external firewire drive attached, and my digital camera (Canon ZR-70) attached to the external drive. I can't get iMovie to accept the camera's output (repeated get error message disk responded slowly) -- same problem I'd hoped the external drive would solve. Questions: Which version of iMovie is best for this model of iBook? Any strategies for addressing this problem? Thanks. CM -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Graphite iBook and iMovie problems
Not specifically to do with iMovie but I crashed my orig. 10gb Pismo hard drive by getting it too full and it was a week-long nightmare that eventually ended with it being mostly restored, thanks to DiskWarrior. Shelled out the $100 for DW after two days of kernel panics and fscks to no avail and then an additional 5 days of DW running non-stop restoring the drive. Before that happened, I didn't know about the keep 10-15% of your hard drive free no matter what rule but I found out about it afterwards and now abide by it religiously. Just my .02...

USB PC Card on Wallstreet
Hi listers, I am desperately trying to get a Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Notebook Card running with by Wallstreet (2nd revision, 233 MHz, upgraded to 466 MHz, 256 MB RAM). The Belkin-Card is supposed to run with OS 8.6 to X, but my PB always freezes in short time when I put it in the PC card-Slot. It is recognized in the System Profiler, however. I have installed OS 9.1, 9.2.2, the USB-Card-Support 1.4.1 - to no avail. Unfortunately, installing OS X is not an option, as my processor upgrade refuses to work with it (the processor is not the culprit, however, as the problem with the USB-card persists when using the old (very sloow) processor). I have no idea if this is related or not, but my OrangeLink Firewire CadBus Card does not work, too (though it should as well). It is not even recognized in the System Profiler.

Connecting to a Wireless Windows Network
We just donated our old Powerbook (G4 867) with an Airport Extreme card to my nephew. My brother-in-law has a Windows based wireless network in his house. The Powerbook used to connect to my home network that uses an Airport Extreme basestation and WEP password protection. My brother-in-law's network uses no security (dangerous, I know). Anyway, his network shows up in the list, but when we try to log on, it asks for a password. I don't understand. Should I set up a new location possibly so that it doesn't look for the old Airport network? What is the solution to convince the Powerbook that it doesn't belong to my old Airport Network and find it's new home?

Re: Photo Printers
What is your favorite photo printer? What I want to do is combining my graphic design and my family into personal page layouts ie. scrapbooks. I like to be able to work them over in photoshop first and sometimes print one or two larger... HP 5850. It *is* only a deskjet, but it works very well. I do very little photo printing, but what I've done has *startled* some of my friends - even a simple BW jpeg. Kristina, I have a Canon S800 that is possibly 5 years old. I love that printer. It has six ink cartridges: black, cyan, magenta, yellow, photo cyan, photo magenta. When one tank goes out, you pay about $12 for its replacement. I keep one of each as a spare, and have never noticed a drying-out problem with the tanks or spares. (I also have an HP LaserJet 1200 next to it for strictly business BW.) I get some NICE photos with that printer. About a year and a half ago, I noticed Canon's newest printer, the i9900, could handle borderless 4 x 6 all the way to 13 x 19 and now had two additional ink tanks: red and green. Its price is $499, so I held off buying it because I thought that by this Christmas the price would have gone down. Well, apparently it's not having any trouble selling at $499, so I'm still waiting... I did see, on one of those HGTV-type scrapbooking programs, someone creating scrapbooking pages completely on their computer. Since scrapbooks are usually wider than 8.5, this wider Canon printer is just perfect for creating pages that will fit into scrapbooks. Mac Design or Mac Format (or someone) recently had a review, with a comment that the output rivaled color laser printers. I've noticed that Apple's site now carries this printer. If you don't need the wider pages, there are less expensive models with all the other features. Hope that helps, Claire P.S. On the scrapbooking show mentioned above, one option was to print the page on matte paper AND ALSO print the photos on glossy paper, and then literally paste the photos on the page to give it a more authentic scrapbook look. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: USB PC Card on Wallstreet
I had a similar problem years ago with a different powerbook and software, but mine would only happen when I was on battery. After shipping it to Apple, etc., etc., a tech locally said to change the energy saver so it wouldn't cut back on power on battery because the PC card needed continuous power or it would crash the whole system.

The 6Mb difference is do to lots and lots of files (4000+), many are small. If a file takes up 3000 bytes it is allocated 4096 bytes on disk. Multiply that by many files and you end up with a fair bit of unused disk space. The Mail Application is really a Package. Simply put a package is a folder with assorted sub folders and files. The system knows about packages and normally displays them as an Application. You can look inside by holding down the control key as you click on one. A contextual menu comes up, select Show Package Contents. It will open the Package folder and you can look around inside like any other folder. I caution you about changing anything inside however, it could royally mess up the program. If you are familiar with ResEdit, it is the OS X equivalent.
