great (IMO) vendor for UPS replacement batteries
I'm happy with these guys: http://www.batterysupplyco.com/ I have 3, originally mid-range APC UPS surge protectors. They are getting old, on one the battery is dead, the others are getting there (maybe 5 or 6 yrs old at this time). Anyway I was going to just buy new ones rather than replace batteries, and got hit with sticker shock at the prices of not-even- comparable units at the chain stores (and these are heavy, shipping is a big pill to swallow for internet purchases). Anyway the above URL has nice battery replacements, free shipping, and great customer service- one battery was the wrong kind, I made a mistake/was mislead by their website perhaps, and they are shipping the right battery plus covering shipping of the wrong one back to them. Pretty decent. Hope this helps someone who is trying to decide what to do with their aging UPS. Brian -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: great (IMO) vendor for UPS replacement batteries
I'm happy with these guys: http://www.batterysupplyco.com/ I have 3, originally mid-range APC UPS surge protectors. They are getting old, on one the battery is dead, the others are getting there (maybe 5 or 6 yrs old at this time). I've been replacing my APC batteries for awhile now and this time around (my UPS died 2 weeks ago) I ended up buying an APC brand replacement from buy.com. It was a few bucks cheaper than almost any no name generic replacement and the APC replacement contains a free packing and shipping sticker for a UPS return of the old battery to be recycled. This to me adds in another 5 or 6 bucks to the value of the APC brand replacement over the generic you can get from companies like the one above. I've dealt with them and had the same problem. I entered my model UPS and they sent me the wrong battery. They were quite good about returning the wrong one and getting me the correct battery, but it took almost 3 weeks from when my UPS first beeped until I had a new battery inside.

Re: Lombard problem
I did remove the PRAM battery and the processor in an earlier attempt with no results. I just tried removing the power board and the machine refused to do anything. Since the logic board swap failed, I feel that leaves me with one of two choices: The sound board or the power board. Which would be the most likely suspect? Well the machine won't run with out the power or sound board, I was suggesting swapping for a known good one. The machine is powering up (green light and fan running), so its probably not the sound/AC board. Mad Dog -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I had to change my Airport network settings from automatic to a specific network under the by default join dialog. Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal, but since it's not set to automatic, on those rare occasions when I'm actually out and about with my Pismo, I have to remember to set it back to automatic just to join a hot spot. Anyone know why this is? Should I delete my network altogether and just create a new one? Here's the specs: Pismo 500/1gigRAM/Airport card w/ Airport Base Station (snow). All software is up to date, with exception of Tiger. I'm currently using Panther 10.3.9. Thanks for any input on this matter, Zoltan Zoltan, This has just happened to me in the last week. Now when I come home and open up my Pismo I have to click on the airport icon in the menu and select my network. Used to do that automatically. Also it no longer asks if I want to connect to any open network it finds elsewhere. I have a Pismo 400/768/40G/Airport card with a Belkin wireless router. Using 10.3.9. Don't know if it is related or not but it takes a lot longer lately to load any Safari pages. I checked my DSL speed on one of those free sites and it has not changed. Just got a new (to me) iMac G3 400Mhz/640/10G/Airport and it seems to be much more snappier. Any programs that would cause this? Airport card gone bad? Trying to think of the changes I have made... Anybody else out there notice this? Thanks, Dan- Dan, Now see this is getting interesting. I hope we didn't stumble on some kind of bug in Panther. I'm wondering if this is just a Panther thing, or if it is something that would go away with Tiger. Keep me posted if you discover a fix. I'll do the same.

Re: help needed: extensions, open transport, etc.
If your machine can handle it, I would try to upgrade the operating system to 9.9.2. That may solve your problem. If not, then I would reinstall the system you have on there (or do a install in place - think thing that option is there. I'm not sure, it's been a while since I messed with classic.)

Re: extension problem: shared library manager ppc
yes, that's what i was thinking too... two questions: - can i burn the extension from another computer (running 9.2, i'm running 9.1) onto a disk and use that? - if i do a clean install, will that wipe all my files, preferences etc. off the computer?

Re: extension problem: shared library manager ppc
Clean install saves the old system folder and installs a new system folder. Once you restart you can drag your old preferences etc into the new system folder. You can try copying the extension from another machine it should/might work. By the way some of your older apps like Explorer might have to be upgraded, especially the ones that insist on the opentransportlib file. Sorry if its not the right name, its been a while since I played with 9.

Re: extension problem: shared library manager ppc
i just tried copying the extension from a 9.2.2 system and although both extensions are identical in every way *except for the system they came from* (same version, creation date, etc.) it did not solve the problem, still getting the bomb error message when starting unless i disable that extension. grr.

Hard Drive Replacement
I just loaded Tiger onto my G3 Dual-USB iBook with the 9.24GB capacity HD and I realize I barely have breathing room left. Two questions: 1. Can a reasonably handy person (rebuilt the carburetor for my 1965 Mustang once) replace the HD in this model iBook? 2. Can anyone recommend a HD? I went to http://www.pbparts.com/shop/ and found an 80 GB Hard Drive (Toshiba 5400RPM): This Toshiba 80GB 5400RPM drive has a huge 16MB buffer, improved noise reduction, and low power consumption. Here is a link to specs for the 8026GAX. This drive has a three year warranty from Toshiba Note: This drive is compatible with all G3 and G4 laptops. 8026GAX. At the same site, also found: This is a Hitachi Travelstar 7K60 60GB 7200RPM 2.5in ATA-6 Mobile Hard Drive w/8MB Buffer. Here is the spec PDF for the Hitachi Travelstar 7K60. This drive is equiped with a large 8MB Data Buffer and a 7200 RPM Spindle Speed for increased performance. Note: This drive is compatible with all G3 and G4 laptops. Would I see a noticeable difference in the 7200 vice the 5400 RPM drive? This thing is already running very slow when compared to my G5 iMac. The iBook now has an IBM-DJSA-210 HD, according to System Profiler, and when I looked it up online, I found that it runs at 4200RPM. So, 5400 would be an improvement; 7200 would be a vast improvement, no?? Suggestions gratefully accepted and many thanks. bob -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Hard Drive Replacement
Try this site: http://www.pbfixit.com/Guide/ They have good guides on taking apart powerbooks/ibooks and it will give you a good idea what is in store for you. Just out of curiosity, how much room did 10.4 take up? I know 10.3 take up 2 gigs and I can't imagine 10.4 taking up much more room.

The iBook now has an IBM-DJSA-210 HD, according to System Profiler, and when I looked it up online, I found that it runs at 4200RPM. So, 5400 would be an improvement; 7200 would be a vast improvement, no?? Suggestions gratefully accepted and many thanks. They both sound good. I'm not sure if the ATA-6 is okay or not, there is a problem with some version of ATA but I don't know what it is.
