Re: RAM for Powerbook - best not cheapest

2005-06-16 Thread Francesco sciacca
 I'd like to max out the RAM on my Powerbook (15 / 1.5GHz).
 
 http://www.crucial.com/store/ListParts.asp?mfr=Applemodel=PowerBook 
 +G4+1%2E5GHz+%2815%2Dinch+Display%29 lists them at $211 per 1GB.
 
 I'd like to buy from Crucial because I've had good luck with them,  
 but wonder if others have had good experience with another vendor  
 that they would recommend.  I don't want to go cheap-over-reliable.

positive experiences with both Crucial and OWC.

cheers,
gianfranco

 Make sure that your router is configured as the DHCP server.

Yes it is,  and works fine with all the computers in the house both DELL and
my DT G3...there's just something screwy with the Lombard.

Re: DSL and storms

2005-06-16 Thread bobgir2004
 I think the very definition of insanity is repeating the same action
 and expecting a different result.

Once saw a motivational poster:  If you always do what you always did,
you'll always get what you always got.

Except with computers.  Sometimes repeated restarts solve the darndest
problems.

exchanging three SO-Dimm's with one user before they found out that

Hmmm, it has a new hard disk...installed by my ownself with much online
handholding with the G-list demigods.

I haven't really been moving it around, tho it is a portable...

I hope its not  hard ware trouble, I'd rather get a new CD/DVD RW, and make

Re: Synchronizing Treo 650

2005-06-16 Thread Sionnach Aisling

How timely.

My wife has been pestering me for a Treo for sometime.
 I wouldn't let her buy the 600 because the 650 has
WAY more bang for the buck  But Verizon didn't want to
start selling teh 650 until recently.

Anyway, I bought one...  And then the joy of getting
it to work with her ibook G4 began.

Bear in mind... she's a long time Palm user (as am I)
and already had Palm software installed on her
machine.  However, it wasn't new enough to support the
650.  You have to update to the version of Palm
software that ships with teh CD.  No biggie there.

Now, lets get this out of the way first...  Palm says
Mac is supported with the Treo 650.  Verizon says Mac
is supported with the Treo 650.

Call Verizon support and see if they say the same
thing  They told me it wasn't.  Luckily, I know
enough about what I'm doing that I only needed minimal
information from teir tech support and was able to
guide them to the information i needed...


For the most part, everything will be fine with your
Treo 650 and the Mac.  There are a lot of features
though that just popping in the CD and installing
won't give you. (Pop the same CD into a PC and you'll
get all kind of options.)

The main piece we had trouble with was VersaMail.

My wife wanted to be able to send/recieve email.

Well, VersaMail comes wiht your Palm... sortof.

Verizon recompiled Palm's install CD to make it their
own and in doing so left out a LOT of the
functionality for Macs.  In fact, their own
instruction manual (Verizon's) says Mac users will
have to install VersaMail from the CD...  But try to
do that from a Mac... you can't.  They didn't
incorporate a Mac installer.  I had to take my wifes
Treo 650 upstairs, hook it up to my PC, pop the disk
in and install VersaMail from there.  After that, it
would sync and work fine from her iBook.

I was able to get mail to recieve, but not send. 
After quickly looking at the unit, I determined it was
becasue she was sending over verizon's network, so our
home ISPs SMTP Server setting wasn't working. 
Solution...  I needed a SMTP server from Verizon.

Called Verizon support...  first mistake, my wife
tells the lady she's running this on a Mac.  Tech
tells her this isn't supported on a Mac. (Verizon Doc
says otherwise).  She tried to explain that her
problem was irrelevant to whateer operating system it
was running on, but tech wasn't getting it...  She
finally gave me the phone in disgust.

I finally determined that not only did the tech not
know mac, they didn't know the Treo 650 either... only
the 600 (which runs a different version of Versamail
with far less features.)  After holding the techs hand
and leading her through all the settings in Versamail
(wait, isn;t that her job??) She finally gives me the
SMTP server name I need.  Of course... she gave it too
me wrong.  I had to figure that out for myself.  But
all in all, i got it working.


Since the, my wife LOVES her Treo650.  I'm even
impressed with it, although I'm a graffiti guy and the
650 doesn't allow graffiti... just input from the
mini-keyboard, which my fat fingers don't like :-)


Why did you decide to get rid of the Kyocera and go
with the 650?  How much do you want for the Kyocera? 
I might be interested.  Email me off list (about that
or if you need more help with your 650, I'll be happy
to do what I can.)

Another good article regarding Apple and Intel

2005-06-16 Thread Bruce Johnson

At Datamation.

http://tinyurl.com/bxu9z

He points out that Apple is finally going to a company that makes  
general purpose CPUs as their main business, not a small sideline.


He also points out that Intel is going to a company that has as much

Yes and no. MS doesn't dictate hardware or system architectures. So  
long as drivers are there MS windows could run on anything.


However, they also don't *help* Intel build systems, which is Welch's  
point.


The potential exists for some really fruitful collaboration between  
Apple and Intel that will move both their products ahead.


This will trickle down to the Windows world, Intel knows who buys  
MOST of their chips after all, but Apple will get first use of them,  
meaning Apple WILL be able to say 'we're faster than any Dell', and  
Apple will get a chunk of what Intel makes selling them, too.


This, however, is a generation or more down the road. We're talking  
2010-era stuff now.

Buy single torx drivers  at  Sears. T8 driver is all you need for the 
Pismo and a small phillips head screwdriver. A T6, T7 and T9 are nice 
to have on hand for the Wallstreet powerbook.

The take-aparts from www.pbfixit.com are very good.

Re: Lombard snags [signed]

As a former Lombard owner I can empathize. It had a serious flaw on wake up
and was known as the sleep of death. It would be worth it to send it to
Daystar - http://daystartechnology.com/ and upgrade. It solves your dvd
problem and gives you the altivec engine. Then you'll never have these
problems. (I was never able to get Panther on my Lombard -got a kernel
panic) I plan on upgrading.

There is also a person named Chuck Wright on e.Bay who specializes in
Lombards and has scads of parts. I bought a logic board from him and was
very satisfied with his handling of the sale.

He also turned me on to a website that has the service manual for the
Lombard (it's in pdf format)

 http://www.whoopis.com/computer_repair/PowerBook_G3_Series_Bronze_kbd.pdf

Happy sailing, (I really like the old Lomby)

BTW, I also remember it being picky about memory ups.

Re: RAM for Powerbook - best not cheapest

2005-06-16 Thread Ruffin Bailey
 I'd like to max out the RAM on my Powerbook (15 / 1.5GHz).

 http://www.crucial.com/store/ListParts.asp?mfr=Applemodel=PowerBook 
 +G4+1%2E5GHz+%2815%2Dinch+Display%29 lists them at $211 per 1GB.

 I'd like to buy from Crucial because I've had good luck with them,  
 but wonder if others have had good experience with another vendor  
 that they would recommend.  I don't want to go cheap-over-reliable.
  
 I buy all my memory from Data Memory Systems and have never had a  
 problem. They've gone more than the extra mile with folks here,  
 exchanging three SO-Dimm's with one user before they found out that  
 *their* compatibility info was wrong for that model (A gateway  
 laptop, not a Mac). They ended up refunding his cost and giving him  
 the RAM.

I've heard good things about TransIntl.com.  Mike Breeden of xlr8yourmac.com 
fame used to work there (iirc) and still has them as a major advertiser.  I've 
order most of my Macs' RAM from them over the years, though did grab some for 
my Beige from OWC with my power supply order this week.

TransIntl ain't necessarily the cheapest, but so far so good.

Yes and no. MS doesn't dictate hardware or system architectures. So 
long as drivers are there MS windows could run on anything.


However, they also don't *help* Intel build systems, which is Welch's 
point.


The potential exists for some really fruitful collaboration between 
Apple and Intel that will move both their products ahead.


This will trickle down to the Windows world, Intel knows who buys MOST 
of their chips after all, but Apple will get first use of them, 
meaning Apple WILL be able to say 'we're faster than any Dell', and 
Apple will get a chunk of what Intel makes selling them, too.


This, however, is a generation or more down the road. We're talking 
2010-era stuff now.


It was around '97-98 when about 22 of Motorola's best chip engineers 
left MOT and went to Intel. This was reputed to have hurt the G3 and G4 
development quite a bit. Intel was already pulling away from Motorola 
at that point, and the lead only got bigger and bigger. Who knows, 
maybe some of those guys are still at Intel.

Kristina,
Click on Apple Menu Items - then drag down (highlight)  Control Panels 
- then drag down and double-click the Energy Saver. A dialog box will 
come up. Make the sleep setup tab be in front. Toggle all the bars to 
Never. Click out of the box and you are set.

Bob,
Where would I find that in OS9.2?

Uh, waitamin.  I gotta research, but I remember reading about 
Microsoft maintaining a rather long/detailed specification as to what 
a PC is and how it has to work, and that Intel balked at their newest 
revisions, but dummied up as MS controlled everything.


This will trickle down to the Windows world, Intel knows who buys 
MOST of their chips after all, but Apple will get first use of them, 
meaning Apple WILL be able to say 'we're faster than any Dell', and

Maybe.  Sortof.  Hopefully.  And (*snicker*) they'll handle this 
better than the trickle-down of SCSI and ADB and FireWire.

Is Apple really moving to x86 architechture?!

2005-06-16 Thread Zoltan Batiz

Hello All,

I just had to add one more thought on this subject, and wanted to see 
if anyone agrees.  After reading all the input from this invaluable 
list group, and listening to the radio (Leo Laporte has said some VERY 
interesting things when it comes to Apple moving to Intel on AM 640), 
and reading all the relevant articles in mags I have come to a very 
logical and realistic conclusion:


The proverbial gap between PC's and Mac's will not change.  In fact, I 
honestly think that NOTHING will change at all.  Call me an optimist, 
but the only thing that's going to happen besides faster Macs overall, 
is that one day a PC user will be going over to his/her old friends 
house who happens to be a Mac user and that Mac user will tell his/her 
PC user, hey did you know that my Mac has an Intel designed 
processor?  The astonished PC user will just be that. . .astonished.  
Then they'll go about their business.  I expect nothing more, nothing 
less.  Macs will still be just above PC's, PC's will still dominate 
the business world, and Mac's will still dominate the design world.


Anyone agree?  Or is everyone leaning on Laporte's side saying that 
this move is a stake in Apple's heart



Zoltan

gamepad/controller for Tiger

2005-06-16 Thread Amber

Hi,

I am looking for a gamepad/controller for my Al PB which is  
compatible with Tiger.  I do have the Macally iShock II but can't  
find a driver for it that will work in Tiger.


Any suggestions would really be appreciated - I'd like to use it with  
Halo and a few other games.


Thanks,

Amber

Michael,

I know you did this to help out but folks have to remember that it is
*STRICTLY* prohibited to post any URL to Apple's service manuals. We
certainly don't want to have Apple's legal after Dan, the List Mom because
that would mean the end of the G-Books list (and all the other lists, for
that matter).

I will ignore it this time but posting such URL is supposed to result in a
ban. Again, I know you did it to help. If you folks need to post help to
disassemble a PowerBook, post the PowerBook FixIt URL instead.

Synching Treo 650

2005-06-16 Thread Matthew Dwyer

For those with a Treo and a Mac, you may want to check out The Missing Sync by 
Mark/Space (www.markspace.com), which goes a lot farther than the Palm software 
and integrates nicely with iTunes and iPhoto.

Also for Mac Treo users, check out the discussion forums at www.treocentral.com 
, there is a forum called Mac and Treo where we all share our ideas and 
experiences.

Cheers,
mbd26

Re: Lombard snags [signed]

I aplogize. Is the ban on service manuals infinite ie is there a cutoff
point for age of model? I took my Lombard to a local Mac shop and they
