Re: Airport Question
The truly amazing thing is the actual stupidity you come across in this PC dominated world when it comes to Mac Networking. Back when I used PC's I used a wired network and I was really new to networking back then. I even took a course on it at a local community college. With that under my belt and a couple of texts to refer to, I went at it. I bought my routers and all of my cat 5 cables and then the PC's still wouldn't cooperate. One would see some but others wouldn't see others. It took me weeks to finally get it to where I finally have everybody able to share files and printers. When I was able to afford a Windows NT server, that helped quite a bit. Then I made the switch in 2001 and started going over to wireless, obvious choice was wireless and networking has never been so easy. Using only Apple hardware probably has made it a lot easier on me than using 2nd and 3rd party equipment. Everything works right out of the box and works with little to no configuration. As far as wireless networking, Apple the top of the line. I would not consider using anything else.

They didn't know, so they called over a higher up, who told me it could not be done. I got a Linksys WRT54G (not from Staples), installed an Airport extreme card, called Linksys tech support and very soon after, Voilà, the impossible was actually quite easy, even for a tech- impaired person like me.

Don't you love Christmas? (Powerbook Ti keys)
Happy Boxing Day all, from Australia: (Boxing Day is British/Australian name for 26 December, dating from 18c-19c and meanior boxing gifts) I can't resist sending this Christmas story, and I have a request for advice. First the story … Yesteday during a Christmas stayover at my niece's, her three cats have eaten four of my keyboard keys (one over-ate!) Now of course in the shut-down period I am busy trying to find words without s, d, a and w, especially s and w :-) Do I sound as if I am smiling …? Here is the question: I have a Powerbook G4 Ti 867. Has anyone had to replace keys on this model? When the world wakes up from Christmas will I have to replace the whole keyboard or can I buy the four keys separately? Oh, and a long shot … I wonder if my Applecare warranty covers cats' Christmas dinners? What is the mailing list wisdom on this one? Don't you love Christmas?

2 gen iPod failure
Christmas greetings...sorry to bother you guys... problem with Christmas present... My daughter loaded all her CDs on her DELL Inspiron 1150 using the 2 port PCcard FW adapter http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/PCMCIA2P/ I had bought for my Lombard. Sorry for talking about a youknowwhat machine...since it does not have a FireWire port either. She had loaded iTunes from the program disk from her sisters mini... isn't this PCcard a PC compatible card...it goes either platform? we can't get it to download from the computer to the iPod... from the OWC site they say The only thing you will need to do is set your iPod to Disk mode manually since no PCMCIA / PC-Card is able to bus power a device (or recharge your iPod, for that matter). To do this, you need to reset your iPod by pressing the top and bottom (menu play) buttons above and below the scroll wheel. When you see the Apple logo, press and hold the fast forward - fast rewind buttons. You'll feel your iPod's hard drive spinning, it is now powering itself from the internal battery. Hook the iPod up to your PC-Card FireWire card and you should be ready to go! This holding the fast forward - fast rewind buttons...makes the screen say OK to disconnect...and nothing. And it erased the previous library... This 2gen iPod..is there a manual anywhere. Kristina with Christmas wishes ...wish this iPod would work. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: tiff file won't delete from trash
Hi, I'm trying to delete a corrupted tiff file off my iBook desktop and throw out in the trash can. When I empty the trash can, a message says that the tiff file is in use so it can't be deleted from the trash can. I tried restarting my iBook a couple of times. But the message is the same.
