Re: Choking on Yahoo Mail, OSX, ADSL, Firefox, adfarm.mediaplex.com ads

[George Mogiljansky]

Thanks, Laurent.
 
I just checked e-mailanywhere.com. They claim it works
best with Internet Explorer. This means they are
windows oriented?

Is there a Linux/Unix webmail-based service that will
work from any Windows or Mac 'puter anywhere?

Choking on Yahoo Mail, OSX, ADSL, Firefox, adfarm.mediaplex.com ads

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi all,
 
Serious choke points and loading 10 sec. or longer and
finally no ad is loaded. Using Yahoo Mail, OSX, ADSL,
Firefox; adfarm.mediaplex.com ads - these ones do the
choking. Mediaplex.com is indeed an internet
advertising firm, located worldwide. 

I wrote to Yahoo but their help is useless (no
response). I compared Mac 'puters - 10.1.4 up to
10.3.8 - same slow down. Yahoo can also be slow on an
even faster cable connection (using Windoze) at work.

I will abandon Yahoo mail if nothing can be done, so
your webmail based alternatives welcome (G-mail does
not work!).

HDD's green light on for a moment but no spin up

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi, 

It's an ancient Seagate UW SCSI HDD. I attach a ribbon
power cable and the green light comes on but no spin
up. Is it dead or does it need a special cable to spin
up?

Re: Dance through the OS Xs

[George Mogiljansky]

Not being an expert, I will paraphrase others:

Classic had many versions, each one better than the
previous. 
OSX has very startling differences, effectively "an
entirely new OS" in 10.1, 10.2, 10.3.

Re: Dance through the OS Xs

Oh, yes, Halo (whazzat?) reminds me of Haloscan, that
ubiquitous blogger "Comments" box SW. Opening that box
crashes Firefox (!) on the 10.3.7-armed WS Series II

But no crashes on an ancient, if slightly wheezing,

Re: OT-trouble with webpages loading

[George Mogiljansky]

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention. Safari 1.2 using 10.3.7
on a WS Series II with 512 MB Ram and ADSL - you can
still get stalls/slowdowns using Yahoo features (mail,
groups). 

OSX in its various flavours is a slick marketing tool,
nothing else. This is 'beta-testing' taken to a new
low. They still tweak the install disks to each
machine; but the original 8.0 G3 Beige install disk
has access to installers for both non-G3 Macs and 68k!


There is/was also a way to install 8.6 on
non-supported machines, and a way to install 8.1 on
non-supported macs. Linux/NetBSD is your final hurrah
for 'legacy' HW (see Mandrake PPC, Debian PPC, NetBSD,
AU/X, among others). 

Support recycling! Down with forced obsolescence!

Re: OT-trouble with webpages loading

[George Mogiljansky]

Add Yahoo to the trouble; slow loading or not loading
at all (I'm using ADSL) any mail function, groups
(lists of messages inaccessible).

If this continues, I will re-try Linux (Mandrake PPC
was working, I have Debian to try). Linux is very
difficult to install on pre-G3 Powermacs. At least
with OSX you have XPostFacto that sometimes works.

I will give up on Yahoo, of course, if things
continue. 

Seems the'Net is breaking up into a myriad of special
interests (gamers, newbies, hackers, crackers,
business types) each with their own 'preferred' OS,
optimized for them and them alone.

Finally Successful Panther Install on WS II

[George Mogiljansky]

Hello!

Using an external 16" Mac Color Display (fixed freq.),
I was able to do a fully normal Panther install.
Previous attempts using default settings for XPF were
partially successful as mentioned before (using the
built-in screen which went bonkers just at the end of
'optimization'. and deathly quiet from the Pb
innards).

Daisy-chaining a scanner and an external HDD* might
have made things easier, also. The CRT went dark
(shades of 10.03 on my former G3 Beige DT) during the
install, but the internal HDD and CD-Rom continued to
chug away until the reboot chime.

The only hitch is a pink line, half way up and half
way across on the right side. It doesn't interfere
with usage. 
Thanks to all.
George
WS II, 300 MHz/1 MB L2, 512 MB Ram. 

*SCSI in both cases, of course.

Re: Wallstreet and UDF

[George Mogiljansky]

My experience with a Series II is that the Panther
installer chokes , i.e. the video goes haywire a few
minutes before the end on the install. I reboot and
Panther seems to work, but some programs do not work
or are not installed, e.g. Stuffit, Safari (but the
app and alias in the dock are both present).
Luckily, Mozilla installed (so I can still use the
Net) and Preview (the pdf reader app). Prefs are
accessible.

I used XPostFacto without the special video setting
(thanks to Ben Dyer) for Wallstreet. With the special
setting I could not install Panther at all.

Re: Wallstreet LCD backlight not turning on after wake from sleep / installing OS9

[George Mogiljansky]

My two cents' worth: it depends if during the OSX
install you checked "install OS9 drivers". But I've
been told to format drives intended for OSX using the
OS 9 version of Disk Drive Set-up.

Re: Wallstreet backlight, sleep issue

[George Mogiljansky]

I had the same problem (no lit screen after wake from
sleep in Jaguar, no OS 9 installed). Things only got
worse after I erased the perfectly good all-Jaguar
all-the-time HDD in order to install Panther. Using
XPostFacto, the screen completely disappeared, nothing
would install. I tried to reinstall 10.2, starting
with 10.1 base install - the CD is not recognized
(worked fine a few weeks ago). 

I am only guessing, but maybe the PRAM settings have
been altered in a way that needs more then PRAM Reset
to get them back.

Re: LF; SW to communicate between two Macs using phone line (modem)

[George Mogiljansky]

Hello Al, 

Experts aside, I have one word, er..one URL for you:
macorchard.com.

Like an old friend, I found some freeware and/or
shareware that might help me out. I seriously
doubt(ed) you can simply tell your modem to dial-up
your remote Mac and get desktop access to it. I might
be reduced to sending files to a Mac-friendly freebie
website (do these still exist? I don't have a server)
and then downloading them.

What about Telnet, anyone? 
I'm using OS 8.6, dial-up, PowerBook 3400.

Re: Fonts in Mac OS X ???

Hi Larry,
I personally know of a Mac-using graphics business
that keeps a 9600 PowerMac just for clients who use
older fonts. 
Try searching for solutions, e.g. on Mac-related NGs
via //google.groups.com or some other search engine
using suitable key words, of course. I remember
getting some good insights. It's a nasty problem.

on a WS Series II PDQ; some sleep issues (won't wake -
need to reboot). I have not installed any 10.2 updates
at all; Mozilla Firefox runs very well.

Re: A haunted Lombard ?

[George Mogiljansky]

Over in Canada (North America), most/all consumer
electronic devices "must accept interference" or
similar language with regards to electronic signals. 
Is this the case here?

Re: A haunted Lombard ?

[George Mogiljansky]

Is there a PC card or other component that is
sensitive to a wireless network?

Can you examine the system logs?

There was a problem with the earlier WS series -
something about the magnetic effect of a spinning HDD
on the sleep function (corrected on the HDD in
question by placing a piece of metal over a portion). 

Or could it be an internal cable that is reacting to a
signal from somewhere?

Could you reproduce the conditions of this incident?

Re: A haunted Lombard ?

[George Mogiljansky]

Are there any sources of radio waves or other
electromagnetic radiation nearby?
Is the power-on button jammed or altered?
Is there an wake/alarm setting (and could it be due to
a cookie or a virus)?
Can the battery cause this?

Re: Which modem script in 10.2 for built-in WS PDQ 56k modem?

Which modem script in 10.2 for built-in WS PDQ 56k modem?

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi G-Powerbookers, 

Using plain vanilla 10.2 without updates in a
Wallstreet 300 MHz PDQ, internet access via dial-up
with built-in modem; (getting very flaky connection in
a remote area (cottage country), so the line may be
the problem). 

Which modem script is usable or native to the WS PDQ? 
Thx
George

PS: after contacting my ISP, service improved
dramatically (using the Hayes Accura 56k script).

Re: Is this wireless card usable in a Wallstreet?

[George Mogiljansky]

What I found so far:
"..
 Cisco Aironet client utility can be used with only
Cisco Aironet 340, 350, and 4800 Series Wireless LAN
Adapters (PC cards, LM cards, and PCI client adapters)
and one of the following Apple computers:

* Macintosh computer with Mac OS 9.x or Mac OS X
(version 10.1.x or 10.2.x) operating system

  o Apple PowerMac G3 (Blue and White) or G4
computer

  o Apple PowerBook G3 Series 1998, G3 Series
1999, G3 (with firewire), or G4 computer.."

Does this include the Wallstreet PDQ?

Re: Panther on Walstreet 300MHz ???

[George Mogiljansky]

Thx, Thomas. 

I just upgraded the Ram on my WS II 300 MHz to 512 MB
and freshly installed Jaguar (the earliest); now
running Firefox (latest) very well, with foreign
language support. 

OS 9 is not present in any form other than to
initialize and format the IBM laptop HDD (OS X 10.1
Install CD could not see the drive!). 

I will stay away from Panther - even with my 4 Megs of
video ram.

Re: Customizing OS X. . .Using Install CDs and multiple CDroms

[George Mogiljansky]

Hello, 
Has anybody tried using install CDs and multiple
CDroms?
Of course, I'm talking SCSI connections and a
shareware app called Pacifier (yanked off the 'Net? -
can't find no trace of it right now, today!).
What this does is it allows you to cherry pick the
Panther or OS X apps that you need to install.
Best
George

Yes, Craig. The service manual clearly states which

much. 
I am having all sorts of trouble getting Ram for my WS

Hi,

Is this possibly true ? I don't have the exact specs.

Re: Wallstreet USB

[George Mogiljansky]

Seems normal. USB cards (2.0) won't allow you to boot
into Classic OS on a Beige desktop or pre-G3 powermac,
but OS X works fine on both. I suspect old world
laptops would behave the same, and ASP won't detect
your USB card either (mine is an Iomega for the
desktop).

Re: Adding RAM to WS II

Sorry, I must have missed the Ram answer: does the bus

Re: Wallstreet screen question

[George Mogiljansky]

While looking for a replacement 14.1 screen, I chose
like-for-like (exact part# - not only Apple's , but
Samsung's also); all the cables, everything is the
same. Avoid problems, unless you live next door to the
source. (From my G3 beige experience, double-sided
Dimms are read as 256 MB and not 128; yes, but not
nec'y in an all-in-one Beige, as I only today found
out.)

Re: Help with Wallstreet PMU

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi Sam, 
If saving data is a priority, get an adaptor that
allows a laptop HDD to run in a desktop. 
Can you run the WS without a battery? Can you switch
A/C adaptors? Can you do a take-apart? I took apart my
WS yesterday, so I can add some tips if you do (try
"wallstreet take apart" on your favourite search
engine). Do you have a 'manual' for the WS? Contact me
offlist if you don't.
Best Wishes

Re: iBook HD wierdness

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi, 
AFAIK, Panther doesn't allow booting from OS from any
disc in any system. OS 9 Helper will install 9.2.2 on
old world Macs (powerbooks, too?), but I've never used
it. Ah, the old days - when we could de-activate and
re-bless Sys Folders at will with mininal risk. 
Also, does Panther install allow for installing OS 9
disk drivers - I doubt it.
What is the Rom version of your iBook? If it's a SW
Rom (new world Macs), can you burn a bootable/install
CD with a newer version?
Did you have an earlier OS on the HDD and was it
spanning also?
How did you install OS9 on the TiBook? Is it a
system-specific install CD?

Re: Carbon Copy Cloner? (Was Wallstreet Disk Problems)

But doesn't CCC make a bootable disk out of the target
disk? Or is that one option? 
Also, can you use a non-Apple ROM HDD - I've tried
everything to install X on a Compaq branded HDD but no
go. I was able to install OS 9 drivers via the X
install CD, but Apple Drive Set Up still sees it as an
unsupported drive.

Re: Photoshop font problems (was Re: Must Have Apps?)=Jaguar Font Problems

[George Mogiljansky]

The real issue (if it is) is that his machine cannot
boot into OS 9 to access pre-OS X fonts.
 
In fact, I have copied fonts from OS 9 into OS X
folders that are inaccessible when booting into
Jaguar.
But this allowed me to activate those fonts and/or the
languages and keyboard characters they are used with.

I don't have all the details you asked for, and I
don't think merely copying the problematic fonts from
OS 9 folders would activate all of them in OS X. 

Is Panther better or worse with pre-OS X fonts?
 
The graphic artist is using authorized versions of
Photoshop, etc.

Is there a better place to discuss 'Jaguar font
problems'? I tried newsgroups, but that's taking way
too long.
Thanks

800 MHz iBook logic board replacement ? ("only the video chip is dead")

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi, 
Will any other logic board fit? A local user says (I'm
guessing he went to Apple) it costs Cdn $1000 to
replace it but only the video chip is dead. Warranty
is expired. I see a lot of 500, 600, 700 MHz boards on
eBay and only one 800 MHz (all way, way less than Cdn
$1000).
I haven't checked the usual dealers. The screen is
good.
Thanks
George

Re: vanishing battery

[George Mogiljansky]

I've installed Jaguar several times on dekstops and I
never saw a PowerBook option or related choices in the
Prefs panel.
Do you have to use an iBook version (i.e. a then
current CD) of Jaguar?

Re: Older PBG3 "Bus Error" Bomb

Hi Dante, 
Try removing the USB card and inserting it after
restarting. Also check the USB drivers - could they be
corrupt, conflict with Apple's, etc.
Also try the USB printer power-on/off variations.

Re: self replacing a powerbook Power Management Unit (PMU)

[George Mogiljansky]

AFAIK, Lombard can run Panther. But getting a PMU Down
Under, I don't know. Installing is not a bad idea, if
you're capable. 
Depends on your budget. Did 'they' offer you a
trade-in - I'm guessing not? Check in Aussie land if
there's a used Mac dealer or private seller. Compare
the costs.

Which version of OS X are you referring to, Bruce?

Re: WallStreet fan on when asleep in OSX

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi Jack, 
Have you tried version tracker? What is the key
word(s) for this SW you mention? Is it maybe a Classic
app?
 
OS X can do funny things (this morning my 9500 booted
into Darwin; I know text mode, but this isn't it).

I would try my PDQ with OS X; my research so far shows
mixed results. Why only 10.1.5? Jaguar is a more
mature OS X.; 10.2.8 is a better choice for
unsupported Macs than 10.3 AFAIK.

Re: Wallstreet Display

[George Mogiljansky]

Here's the 'official' solution, with photo:
"..
 Apparently the IBM Travelstar  creates an unusually
high magnetic field for a 4200 RPM hard drive, which
interferes with the PowerBook's "sleep switch" located
inside the lower body housing adjacent to the Delete
key and right above to the hard drive. When you close
the PowerBook cover while the PowerBook is on, it will
not awaken from sleep mode, if you close it after
shutting down, it will not start up. You will hear an
"electronic clicking" sound when you press the power
button. There has been a lot of discussion on this
subject on various tech sites. People have also
reported that a small weak "refrigerator magnet"
placed for a second on the case next to the delete key
"resets" the sleep switch, something I don't think an
owner should have to do!

The permanent solution is actually simple, place a
.04mm thick sheet of a non ferrous metal like brass
between the HD and where the sleep switch is in the
body of the PowerBook.I purchased a small piece of
.2mm (1/64th") thick sheet of polished brass and then
cut it in half to the right width to fit between the
screws inside the hard drive caddy (see photo below).
We needed to use a double thickness of the brass, to
block the magnetic field created by the 40GB drive.
Larger drives may need even more brass.."

Re: iceBooks melt; board-level repairs, anyone?

[George Mogiljansky]

Speaking of board-level repairs, anyone have sources
(sites or newsgroups) I can consult?

I have a sickly PowerBook 3400 (won't boot unless a
powered external SCSI device is attached, i.e. the
active termination supplied by the SCSI bus has been
damaged (?). It may be nothing more than the metal
strip (framing the external HD-30 port) having a break
 or a gap (not so on my Wallstreet HD-30, unless the
connectors are different)).

Re: Wallstreet I Ibackup battery replacement instructions needed. . .

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi Stanton, 

Depending on time, etc. do it yourself. The confidence
booster alone is worth it. If not, post a request on
your local newsgroup for a tech who has a good rep. 

I even bought a Pram battery for a 3400 from a battery
specialist (not a computer-related store). Take your
old battery to a battery store (see the old-fashioned
Yellow Pages) and they will/should gladly accept the
challenge.

Re: Wallstreet II video problem

[George Mogiljansky]

The Apple Service manual says first reset the power
manager. 
For the 13.3 screen, start with the display cable. 
If you have a 14 inch screen, start with the inverter
cable, then the power cable, the inverter board
(replace), replace the display, i/o logic. 
I just bought a replacement screen on eBay. Mine is
dim and a replacement of the backlight seems
problematic One user did it but dust got into the
screen and it's pretty bad. 
Does anyone know if the 14 inch backlight is
soldered-in or just clips in?

Re: Powerlogix vs Sonnet

[George Mogiljansky]

Here are some test results, Mikael; quoting briefly
from this page:


".. using the OS X version of SpeedRun Benchmarking
software on both kits, and comparing them with other
tested systems that were saved in the log, both boards
made the WallStreets faster than a G4 450 Cube, G4 466
PowerPC and a G4 Titanium PB 667! Ok - Ok, we have no
idea why it beat a TiPB 667, but it did on repeated
tests with no deviations.."

The 'boards' are the PowerLogix G4 500 and the Sonnet
G3 500.

Re: Powerlogix vs Sonnet

[George Mogiljansky]

Let your fingers do the walking (old Yellow Pages
jingle) - from the site  I quote:

"..Here was the first surprise, the PowerLogix G4
design somehow allows the OS X compromised ATI RageLT
Pro video card to run more efficiently on non AltiVec
optimized applications. In repeated test runs (because
we couldn't believe our eyes), the ATI RageLT Pro
video card was 12% faster on average than the Sonnet
G3. Don't ask me why!.."

Enjoy!
George

LCD take-apart, anyone? Need info, please

[George Mogiljansky]

Hi, 
I have a Samsung LT141X2-124. I believe it has a
burned-out backlight.
What do I need to know to take it apart safely and to
change the backlight?

Also, is this the same LCD as found in other G3
models, e.g. Wallstreet.

All I have as an ID is the following on the case
bottom - the family # (M4753) and;
Macintosh PowerBook G3 Series 14.1
TFT/300MHz-1MB/64MB/8GB HD/4MB video/CD/Modem.

Thanks
George

Re: OS X tossing prefs ?

[George Mogiljansky]

I'm curious, too. My non-PowerBook G3-upgraded 8500
has started to 'break', i.e. Firefox 0.8 has refused
to open today but worked normally yesterday. I suspect
bad Ram or bad Ram placement since I recently added
some Dimms. The log was included in the bug report
filed with Mozilla. 
Regarding my recent acquisition - a G3 Series II (PDQ
according to the serial #) 300 MHz; can it run Panther
with the stock CPU and 192 MB Ram? I believe some list
members have succeeded (perhaps using XPostFacto
and/or Carbon Copy Cloner).
George
PS: the family number for the PB is M4753. If anyone
can enlighten me as to the exact model, please go
ahead. I need to replace some parts!

Re: Dim Screen on a G3 Series II - fix or replace?

[George Mogiljansky]

Thanks, Paul. 
The closest take-apart instructions with pictures I
found are here - 
<http://homepage.mac.com/sysop/PhotoAlbum3.html>,
and for the display - 
<http://homepage.mac.com/sysop/PhotoAlbum9.html>.

I followed them to the end, i.e. so no mention of the
cold cathode or power supply. What should the voltage
be (seeing as how the power is off; I am an amateur)?

My main concern is the cables so that if I get a
replacement screen, it will work 'out of the box'. So
far, I 'see' no damage with regards to cables. And
probably the screen is not expensive compared to the
cold cathode lamp and/or lamp power supply?

Dim Screen on a G3 Series II - fix or replace?

[George Mogiljansky]

Hello!

I just acquired a G3 Series II with 300 MHz, 192 MB
Ram. The previous owner had some water leak onto the
'book and the display is almost totally dim (you need
a flashlight to see something). Video-out works fine.
The Power Adapter is the Yoyo type and the battery
charges well. Surfing via ADSL with OS 9.0.4 is very
quick using iCab.  

I have taken apart powerbooks before and this one
looks easy (compared to a 3400c). What am I looking
for in terms of damage and replacement parts?

If the 14.1 (I am reasonably sure it's not smaller)
screen and/or cables have to be replaced, what pb
models are compatible? 

I ran Norton and TechTools before buying the unit. I
have only the standard user manuals and the original
install CD (OS 8.5). If there is (are) websites
dedicated to this model, please let me know.

Thanks
George
