a USB (1.1 or 2.0)PC card on a Wall Street?

2002-12-29 Thread John Featherstone
I use a Keyspan 1.0-2.0 USB on my Wallstreet. It works fine.  Currently I
use it with the Keyspan USB remote, for presentations. Simple plug and play,
and to connect a USB portable drive.

FireWire and USB 1.1 Hard Drive with Macally USB card

2002-12-23 Thread John Featherstone
It should work just fine. I've only had problems with Palm software with my
card, and my Wallstreet. ie the problem is software specific in my case, not
card specific. If that card works on your book for anything, I believe it
should work with everything.

That's one of the cool things about the Wallstreet. It is the perfect
machine to bridge the past with the current hardware. Long live the
Wallstreet. or PDQ as someone on this list identified some while back.

Problems with PCMCA card under OS 9 in Wallstreet

2002-12-16 Thread John Featherstone
I bought a Keyspan USB card for my Wallstreet so that I could USB synch my
palm to it. It works fine under OSX, but I can't get it to work under
OS9.2.2 Any suggestions. The card shows up on my desktop, and often trying
to synch results in crashing the computer.

pocket drive from Wallstreet wants to format to read by both Win2K pro, and Mac OS

2002-11-20 Thread John Featherstone
Feel free to send me to the correct discussion group but.

I took the 20 gig Hitachi out of my Wallstreet, and put it in a OWC firewire
case. I formatted it MS Dos using the formatting utility on my Mac OS
9.2.2, whatever version of the utility was running there. Transferred files
to it and could read it on my mac, but my Dell running Win 2KPro(NT based)
wouldn't recognize it, and demanded that I reformat it before it would copy
to it. Now I've done that, and my Mac won't recognize it. Why can't I do
this? I've always formatted floppies for Windows, on my Mac, so that I could
move files back and forth. I even do it with zip discs, and the CDs that I
burn from my Mac They're all interchangable. Why can't I do it with a
portable drive, or can I?

Please contact off line, as this stretches the appropriateness of the
Powerbook group

Re: IBM 20GB PowerBook drive (in Wallstreet)

2002-10-24 Thread John Featherstone
I have the 40 gig version of the Travelstar 5400 rpm drive. Love it, quick,
and I thought quiet compared to the 20 gig Hitachi that was in there before.

I had one problem, (I have a Wallstreet II PDQ 300) and that was the book
wouldn't wake from sleep or boot up after a day or two with the drive in. I
would pull the batteries, do the three finger reset, and put the battery and
AC power cord back in, and it would boot.

Laurent recommended that I talk to pbparts. PBparts service tech John
wrote back to me and said that its a well documented issue with Travelstar
drives in Wallstreet books that the proximity of the magnetic sleep switch
to the drive triggers the book to stay asleep. He had me insert a razor
blade above the top center right edge of the drive, I suppose it blocks the
magnetic field. 

Anyway, after doing that it boots every time, wakes from sleep every time,
and I love the drive. End of story, ... and they lived happily ever after.
I don't find it to be too noisy, and am thinking of buying another one to
put in my sons new ibook.

Nice drive!

Re: Power Manager Problem with my Wallstreet (solved at last)

2002-10-15 Thread John Featherstone

Turned out that the problem was my 40 gig IBM Travelstar hard drive that I'd
just installed. The guys at pbparts that Laurent referred me too, sent me a
note Sunday advising me that the hard drive interfers with the sleep switch,
due to its proximity at the right hand corner of the book.
'
he said well documented problem with this Wallstreet' ( well ok, in
deference PDQ) He had me slid a single edge razor blade, over the top of
the right edge, at about dead center of the drive

The steel blocks, or absorbs the magnetic interference and my 'book boots
just fine every time, thank-you, and wakes from sleep easy peasy!

Now in case you-all are going to tell me to put a chicken in a bag, and go
outside and swing it around my head while singing the National anthem to
cure athletes foot, I just want to say that this worked. 100%

Thanks for all of your  suggestions!!

Power Manager Problem with my Wallstreet

2002-10-12 Thread John Featherstone
Saturday, October 12, 2002

Power Manager Problem:

I've got a PowerBook, Wallstreet II 300 mghz, with 384 ram, and a 40 gig
Travelstar 5400 rpm Hd. (3 partitions: OS X.2, OS 9.2.2, and OS 8.5)

While under warrenty I replaced the power manager once, and the previous
owner also did once. At least that is the diagnosis on the repair slip both
times.

Now its doing it again. Won't wake from sleep. Have to pull the battery, the
other drive drive bay, and unplug from AC.

I do the pwer reset key combination ( shift, fn, cntrl, power on) and then
lock in the battery and whatever is in the other bay and it will power back
up Sometimes I have to do it a several times, but it eventually powers
up. 

Most times when powered off I just get a buzzing when I hit the power on
button, and have to go through the same routine I just destribed for
failure to wake from sleep.

What I want to know is:
Power Manager, What is it, Is it user replaceable, How much for the parts,

And are Wallstreets famous for burning out power managers, like they are
famous for weak hinges on the monitor lid?

Re: Fussy iBook CD-ROM drive

2002-06-13 Thread John Featherstone

They handle them just like original purchaser. I bought my Wallstreet in 99,
the original buyer had purchased a 3 year warranty, which has just expired.
I sent it in for power supply, pram, and hinges. They treated me right!
They'll ask for the original warranty on your first time in and re-register
it in your name. Apple warranty work is a good experience.
 
 I bought the iBook second hand. I do know that it was originally purchased
 in May 2001. Any idea how Apple handles warranties with second-hand
 purchases?

Re: USB PCMCIA cards

2002-06-02 Thread John Featherstone

Thanks for the feedback. I hate to believe that everything has to have the
Mac label on it to be worth buying.  Lets not forget that through the years
Apple has subbed out various components that it later blessed with their
logo before going to the store. My ancient Laserwriter NTXII is a great
example of that. Us non-techies get taken advantage of sometimes because
we like the look and feel of the Apple interface, but certainly should
never be opposed to innovation from whatever source it arises.

By the way, I defected from my PowerBook with the latest purchase. Bought a
close out reconditioned i-book 500 DVD for my son. Love it love it love it.
I also test drove a buddies 667 Ti-book, and now I'm now torn between the
new Ti-800 and the i-book 700 combo drive for myself. I like the small size
light weight of the i-book, but love the speed of the Ti Anyone get to
use the i-book 700 yet?

You can partition to multiple Operating systems under some formatting
software. The dialogue boxes of some formatting software (I've several, and
don't recall which specifically) do ask whether the said multiple partitions
are going to be all mac, or mac and pc etc. I think even the Apple
formatting software will let you do it.

QueFire, CDRW not recognized on my Wallstreet using

2002-03-18 Thread John Featherstone

I'm having problems getting my Mac PowerBook G-3 (Wallstreet) 300...
recognizing my QueFire CDRW external

The QueFire is the 12X10X32 version. The Card I'm using is NewerTech
FireWire2Go card. I'm running Mac OS 9.2.2 on the PowerBook.

Nothing wrong with my  firewire extensions.  Because the card works fine to
drive my firewire external hard drive.  Same card, same dongle...

The System doesn't even recognize that the CD burner is there.  Nothing
wrong with the CD burner either. When I plug it into my desktop Mac running
OS 9.1 it runs fine.

Got to be software related, but can't think what.

Ideas??

jf

Also on my key board, the pg down key is loosing its spring back or
recoil. It slips down, and when I slip something under it and lift it up it
stays in the up position for awhile, and then drops back down after hard
use. Is there an easy fix, outside of a new keyboard?

Re: Wallstreet/Bluechip upgrade - memory limit???

2001-07-22 Thread John Featherstone

When I look for larger ram modules, I don't find any that spec for my
Wallstreet 2. Whose specs are you using when you are ordering. I'm running a
pair of 128s, top and bottom  right now.

 Powerlogix officially says they support anything that's in the Apple
 specs for the Wallstreet, but that's max 192 MHz, one 128-MHz  one
 64-Mhz chip.  I'd been hoping to try to put in one 256 in place of one
 of my 64s - I know that though they're not officially supported they
 often work in Wallstreets.  But it didn't occur to me that I no longer
 have the orginal Apple processor card.
 
 So has anyone put in a PowerLogix BlueChip with more memory than that
 (either at the time of installation or added later)?  DID IT WORK?
 
 I've been reading the reviews at XLR8yourmac. Most are very positive, and
 most have put larger memory modules in. It seems that you need to have a
 smaller profile chip in the top space for heat dissipation, so if you put in
 a 256K chip in the top slat, make it a low profile chip.
