Ethernet WiFi adapters - from AirPort in TiBook ???
What's the experience been with standalone ethernet to WiFi adapters? (beyond that they need external power) Can anyone recommend specific units? b or g, OSX or 9 Looks like I need to go that route, and would like to get something that works without too much pain... First shot at a Linksys USB adapter appears to have been a deadend as I have been stumped in attempting to get a mac to network out of the USB port...

Re: editing mp3 files
Simon, Try this: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/20938 It will trim or truncate your mp3 without re-encoding.

Re: 1 printer, 1 Mac, 2 accounts
The exclamation mark means that print jobs are stopped. A very common problem with hp all-in-ones (I know, I have one) is that they don't play well with fast user switching. In my case I cannot print at all when more than one user is logged in at the same time. If that is your situation, try to restart and then log in to only the second account. Also, after waking from sleep, problems tend to appear with these printers. One way to recover, without restarting (or logging out and in again) is to 1) open Activity Monitor (in Applications/Utilities) 2) select the hp communications process and kill it (you may type hp in the little search box first to locate it) 3) In the Finder, open Library/Printers/HP and double-click on the hp communications icon to restart it. This is a faceless background application that does not show up in the dock, hence the tortuous way to kill and restart. Usually, doing 1)-3) (with only one user logged in!) and starting jobs in the printer (double click the printer name in Printer Setup Utility and click Start Jobs in case they are stopped) restores functionality. Of course, if it does not appear in Printer Setup Utility, that harder to do...

Re: AirPort in TiBook ???
Larry le Mac said: Anyone have any experience of the difference between AirPort in the TiBook vs. PCMCIA card with an external antenna ? Never mind about makes/models as I live in Sweden and we probably don't have all the different makes you have, and I'd probably get a decent make in any case. I sold my Apple Original Airport Card for $100 (to the US) and got a second hand Orinoco Gold *with* IOXperts driver for $50 (in Sweden) to use in my PB G4 / 400. The Orinoco picks up networks that just weren't there before. Now, if I only could find an antenna to improve this even further. Yes, I don't regret this move. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Wireless Card
I have a Cisco Card in my Wallstreet. I'm running 10.3.x via XPostfacto. Everything has been working great for several months now. I stuck a USB PC card in the extra card slot to see if I could get a USB Webcam to work. Now my wireless card doesn't seem to work. The lights come on, but the card won't show up in the Network Status pane, but it does show up in the Network Port Configurations. When I run the Cisco software, it doesn't show any signal from the base station, although I know it's working, (to be sure, I tried a different base station with the same result), but it won't associate with it. I have two of these cards, and neither will work and I've tried both slots, with the same result. The card's troubleshooting guide says that when the green light flash quickly, which it now does, it it working, but unable to associate. I even tried booting back into 9.2, but the card shows the same thing. I'm fearful I've blown something on the card slot. Any ideas? And if I did blow something, what would have blown?

Some older 10BaseT hardware doesn't work well with 10/100 gear, the auto-sensing gets confused. Asante 10BaseT stuff in particular was prone to this. However, IIRC the EtherPrint-3 was iMac vintage equipment meant to link the old and the new. The iMacs had 10/100 so it should work.

Re: Printing and Wireless Connectivity
Thank-you to everyone that responded. Collectively your advice was very helpful. Here is my initial problem and the solution. Problem: I could connect wirelessly to the internet or print to my old Laserwriter but not both at the same time. Solution: New network configuration. DSL modem to WAN port on wireless router, LAN port on wireless router to LAN port on wired router, DHCP turned off on wired router, IP address changed on wired router, wired router rebooted. I can now connect to the internet and print to my LaserWriter wirelessly. I still don't know why the wireless router doesn't connect with my printer but with this setup it doesn't matter. Absolutely wonderful.

Re: Can you do the same with usb2? [WAS: Use External FW drive as backup boot drive for Powerbook?]
I was wondering if you can boot off of an external USB2 hard drive. - Rudi My understanding is that since USB isn't shown in the device tree it can't be booted in a normal way. You can select it in Startup Disk but it won't boot. I believe some type of hack could be written to allow USB booting, but none are available AFAIK. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Replacing RAM: PC100 vs PC133
From: John P. Roberts [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Replacing RAM: PC100 vs PC133 Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2005 20:49:23 -0800 I have a PB G4 400 MHz (Titanium Mercury) and want to upgrade my RAM. I currently have one 256 and one 128 Mb SIMM for a total of 384 Mb. Both SIMMs are PC100, whatever that means. I was thinking of replacing the 128 Mb with a 512, to yield 768 Mb. I have two questions: Can I just swap the 512 into the 128's (bottom) slot, or does the 512 need to go in the top slot and the old 256 into the bottom? Can I have one PC133 SIMM and one PC100, or do they both need to be the same? You can mix them. The TiBook can use a high-profile RAM stick in the top slot, the bottom has to be the low-profile type. --- JSH TiBook Self-confidence is the first requisite to great undertakings.
