ADSL - 255.255.0.0 - going crazy
I have a problem with my wife's new TiBook 400MHz and I'm going crazy... We have ADSL and everything works fine with my G4 QuickSilver, but her TiBook (X.3.9) will not receive a valid IP address, 169.smoething... I have run permissions repair and all, no difference. The subnet mask is 255.255.0.0 which is something I recognise from previous instances with this problems with other Macs. I literally take the Ethernet cable from the QuickSilver, plug it in the back of the TiBook, nothing, and then putting it back into the QS, everything works straight away. I have restarted, fiddled, restarted, switched off the IPv6 which I read somewhere could help, but nothing works. Any ideas ??? Also, why can one not set the subnet mask manually while keeping DHCP with automatic IP address assignment ??? Larry _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Re: Doesn't anyone wait anymore?!
Actually, this has been the most trouble-free upgrade I've done. It is now loaded on my iBook G4/800, which I did first and tested for stability, as well as an eMac and my mini. All were done as archive install, with settings imported, and I had no install problems and only one other problem. It seems that after installing Tiger, the old Targus USB hub that was attached to the mini caused the system to crash several times. Removed the hub and no problems since. I have seen some people complaining about network and printer problems but I have had none. My wife has been wanting Spotlight since it was announced, so I had to get Tiger on her eMac to shut her up. :-) JeffW.

Re: Tiger on Pismo and Lombards
Tiger runs fine on a Lombard. Installing it is the trick, and requires a new world Mac. You can install it on an external disk connected to Mac with built-in firewire, or install it on Mac with built-in firewire and swap the drive into the Lombard. But after putting the drive into the Lombard, there is no hack required.

BUT - they were ironed out and I think the majority of people have been pretty content with the upgrades overall in the past 2-3 years. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that people these days just can't wait to run down to the Apple Store to pop in the latest and greatest only to find themselves slowed down by piles of BUGS. No thanks. . .I'm happy right now with 10.3.9. :) Of course, it is always a choice as to whether you buy new, major upgrade software within the first few days of release but sometimes you have to take calculated risks and this was one that I felt worth taking. There were so many cool new features in Tiger that I personally did not want to wait. The time savings and integration between programs seemed very impressive from what I had read and they have definitely proven to be so in the last few days that I have had Tiger installed. It seems to be a fantastic upgrade thus far ! Amber -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Doesn't anyone wait anymore?!
Take a look at this web link, it lists compatibility for Tiger and 3rd party software venders. This list helped me plan my Tiger upgrade for my computer network. I administer over 100 Macs at my job, and I have no plans within the next 3 months to upgrade. OS 10.3.9 runs perfectly.

MCE's iBook SuperDrive upgrade
Hi all, A friend of mine is thinking about springing for a superdrive upgrade from MCE for her G3 iBook. Has anyone out there had any experience with this upgrade (good or bad)? I think they are offering the upgrade for $199 + $99 installation (they have a $49 install option, but you will have to pay to ship it to them). Thanks for everyone's 2 cents.

Re: Doesn't anyone wait anymore?!
Well... On the date of the release of Tiger, at 6:00 p.m. I found myself in line waiting for the Apple Store to re-open. They opened up the store's door and about 200 or so of us faithfuls were in line and under a general applause we entered the Store. The Apple personnel were distributing some sort of scratch and win game... I won an iTune! Upon entry, I proceeded to go straight to the counter and purchased my fresh copy of Tiger. I came home soon thereafter, and installed on my TiG4, 15, 1Ghz. I figured, bugs or no bugs, I will deal with it. I did the same when 10 came out. Then the same when 10.2 came out. The same with 10.3. Never had any issues (major ones) to deal with.

Re: Ibook DVD question
I took a dead 900 Mhz 14 down to the skeleton to part it out. There were a lot of screws and a full muffin tin in the end but I've got to say I've done PC's that were more of a problem.

I have an earlier model 500 MHz Dual USB and was wondering,. did all of them have the DVD decoder on the motherboard, or just the DVD drive equipped models. All dual-USB and later iBooks can playback DVDs if equipped with a suitable optical drive. So yes, you can swap in that combo drive and your iBook with then be able to playback DVDs. You up to the swap?, it's not for the faint-of-heart. Those iBooks are devilishly complicated if you've never done one before.

Slight annoying problem with iChat in Tiger?
Since upgrading to Tiger, I did notice a change in the way iChat works. Basically, if the main application is not opened, you don't get any audio sound for any action. I thought that these were playing even if the application was not running, as long as I had the iChat menu extra in the menu bar under Panther.

Re: MCE's iBook SuperDrive upgrade
