G-Books Google List
Hello everyone. Twice, I have received personal email (blasted to individuals signed up for the google group I think) about issues with the google groups list. List nannies - get your act together - some people seem to be having trouble signing up and once signed up they have no clue as to how to unsubscribe. I had to figure it out myself, since we are given very little instruction. I wanted to use the same email as on the maclaunch server so I used the email signup option (send an email to: g-books- [EMAIL PROTECTED]). That worked fine, except that when I went to the google group page: http://groups.google.com/group/g-books I was told I was not a member. So, I scratched my head and sent a message about this to the list (maclaunch), but got no useful response. The light bulb went off and I realized that I had to sign in online to get into the google group (even though I was already subscribed!!! - got the confirmation email), so I created an account (duh!). All is well now. BUT I would like that people not cull our individual email addresses for their own uses!!! Turtle-Bear -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Moving to Google Groups
I decided to go this route, because I want to use the same email address for the list as I use now. I am told I am subscribed when I click on the confirmation link in an email I received, but I am not receiving any posts and whenever I go to http://groups.google.com/group/g-books I am told I cannot post messages because I am not a member - what gives? I do have a Gmail account, but I don't want to receive list email at that email address. So, now that I am subscribed how do I change my preferences?

Re: http://lowendmac.com/musings/06/0109.html
Are literally using a magnifying glass? How about using the built in zoom function of OS X? It may take some getting used to it, but I have found it valuable. I'm using Panther, so here are my instructions: Go to System Preferences-Universal Access-Seeing-Turn On Zoom In this window you will see the key commands for zooming in and out. I have my 15-inch PowerBook set to its native resolution of 1280 X 854. Also, in Safari's prefs you can set a default text size that will work for most websites.

After 3 months or so, Apple finally figured out the problems (multiple) and then Apple gave owners a 7(!) year repair warranty on the 190 and the 5300. The PowerBook was repaired and it became my workhorse: a very durable and reliable machine that I used until the second trade up option in 2000, when I traded in the 190 for a $700 discount on a Pismo - not too shabby! Still have my wonderful Pismo which plays internet radio over my stereo system (and is an occasional karaoke and web surfing machine). But those first 3 months of PowerBook 190cs ownership were horrible! Yes, the MacInTouch board will become honey for whiners. PowerBooks an be touchy things. I have never had a problem with the Pismo, but my early 2005 Al PB1.67 has had a few issues (some still need resolving), but I think the Apple PowerBooks are great and beautiful and impressive in every way!

Yes! Start up from your Panther Install CD and somewhere in the menu bar there is a reset password selection. Directions from handy dandy Mac Help: To reset the administrator password using the Mac OS X CD: Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 CD and restart the computer. When you hear the startup tone, hold down the C key until you see the spinning gear. When the Installer appears, choose Installer Reset Password.

I'd say if you don't break anything going in then your AppleCare is still in affect. Sadly, you aren't Apple. I wish you were though :) I wish I was too! ;-) The instructions for the drive replacement are in the Owners/Users Manual, and it does recommend an Apple-certified tech do the deed, but the warning to note is if you break something in there while adding/removing things or what have you, your PB is not covered for repairs. There is nothing about voiding the warranty if a nice clean job is done. One takes the chance sometimes... Turtle-Bear -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Tom My Pismo also appears to have a problem with sleep and after a lot of playing around with it, I beginning to think it may relate to OS X. At first I suspected that my power manager board has a problem but I think now it may relate to network activity over airport. My problem is I can't get it to go to sleep at all. I haven't booted back into OS 9 to see if it's there as well, maybe give it a shot tonight. 10.2.3 on my Pismo. No problem sleeping. Going to sleep when Ethernet is connected than waking up and switching to AirPort, and vice versa. With Internet-based applications (Entourage, Safari) running or not. I haven't tested with PhotoShop 7, though, so I can't comment. But I have absolutely no sleep problem in all kind of configurations. There might be a specific pattern of apps or settings in your case and we would have to know it in order to test. I'm just providing my own pattern of use here so that with such and such, I don't have any sleep problem. Also running Pismo 10.2.3 and have had no sleep problems. I had minor problems getting the PB to sleep under earlier versions of Jaguar and OSX 10.1 but this rendition seems to work for the Pismo. Though, if I have a non-optical mouse attached it seems to not want to go to sleep the first time I put it to sleep and does not reliably go to sleep on its own when inactive. My optical mouse (small mouse for traveling) causes no such problems. Turtle-Bear -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

All powerbooks made after the PB 5300/190 support this feature. The OS just lets you turn it on and off. Yes it's dependant on the model. Actually the 190 had a smart trackpad that supported the tapping (and dragging) feature, whereas the 5300 (it's PPC sister) did not.
