I've been using my 15" Ti-book hooked up to a 22" Cinema Display, a  
160 GB Firewire drive and a Wacom Tablet, as a desktop machine for  
about 2 years now. Works great for me. I haven't bothered to attach  
an external keyboard since my need for an extended keyboard with  
foreign alphabet capacity is taken care of by an older desktop  
machine for those rare times.

One thing that you can do, which I did, is get a second router, there  
are some inexpensive ones that you might find on ebay or at one of  
the usual places. You set up that router as an AP, access point, at  
another location in your apartment. This will extend your signal. You  
do have to connect it via ethernet cable to your router My apartment,  
a duplex with 6" thick concrete floors and ceilings and cinderblock  
walls, didn't interfere with my Belkin Pre N router until a next-door  
neighbor installed the same router. I could not get a signal anymore  
in certain parts of the house, but his came through strong enough for  
me to accidentally lock on. He had no security and a slow cable  
service. Fortunately I still had my older Belkin 54g. Creating an AP  
on that solved the problem. I also got him to secure his network.

Hi Tom,
Yes both networks have Belkin in the beginning of the name. You're  
idea sounds right and I'm changing my name. Thank you for helping


You need t o set the wireless to join a specific network (the one  
that you set as yours ) I am betting that you have your wireless

need to log on all the time. You can still do this but to a  
specific network only.


Thank you Victoria, I do have it set up to join a specific network  
and not to join automatically. That's what has been frustrating. The  
neighbor's network router settings get imbedded anyway. I was looking  
for a way to actually block it from incoming. The funny thing is that  
his signal is weaker than mine due to the relative distances... but  
this has not been a help to me.


Rename your SSID.. your mention that "my neighbor has the same  
brand as me" is the clue here. Look in the manual for your base  
station, and find how to rename it and the SSID that it broadcasts  
to clients. More than likely, you both have the same SSID and your  
powerbook is trying to connect to it's usual one, it's just finding  
his by mistake.


Thanks Bruce, I will do that change too.

unwanted network

[dan_A]

Hi List-

I need some network help. I have a 12" PB using Airport Extreme  
joining my wireless network at home. I've had no network problems for  
the last  couple of years until a few weeks ago, when a new neighbor  
moved in next door. I didn't realize that they set up a wireless  
network and happen to have the same brand of router as I do. I was  
unaware of this until one day after turning my PB on to download some  
items, I noticed that the download seemed much too slow. I checked  
various things and found that I had logged on to my neighbor's  
unprotected network.  I checked the up and download speed and  
realized that he was using a cable system that I had recently  
abandoned because of its slowness. I had switched to DSL. I now had a  
hard time making changes to my airport settings because his router  
info was imbedded in the control panel. I got around it by connecting  
via ethernet and then switching over to wireless. On another occasion  
he happened to shut down and I was able to get on to my network. But  
I can't seem to hold my settings unless I don't shut down. What I  
want to do short of telling him to protect his network (I don't know  
him yet) is to some how prevent it from being picked up or being  
accepted by my PB. Sorry for the length of this. Can anyone tell me  
how to prevent picking that network up?

T-book has to be forced to shut down...

Luis Sequeira


Hi list...

My 15" Ti-book, 800MHz, 1 GB RAM, running OS 10.4.2 will not shut  
down or restart using menu commands. It goes to the blank blue screen  
and stays there. I can get it to shut down by holding down the start  
button for a few seconds. It won't restart using any software or  
hardware methods. I have to force a shutdown and then do a cold reboot.


I read Luis' post on getting his Superdrive to work again via the  
Terminal by using cmd-opt-o-f and then typing eject cd reset-nvram  
reset-all. Leaving out eject cd command line, would the rest of the  
commands possibly clear the problem or is the solution more likely by  
removing the keyboard and hitting the reset the pmu button?  TIA.

Do I need additional software to run a 22" Cinema Display ADC

[dan_A]

Hi listers.

I'm running 10.4.2 on a 15" Ti-Book. I just bought a used 22" Cinema  
Display ADC as well as the adapter. In the manual that I downloaded  
it says a CD came with the monitor that contained cp's ... software  
to calibrate and adjust the monitor. I cannot find this software in  
the Apple Archives. Does anyone know the name of the software or if  
it is still necessary in Tiger? Thanks for your help.

I need a Ti book to Cinema Display ADC adapter...

[dan_A]

Hi all-

I just bought a used 22" Apple Cinema Display ADC that I would like  
to connect to my 15" 800MHz Powerbook G4 DVI. The male connector on  
the monitor has a pin configuration that looks like it would fit  
perfectly into the female DVI port on the Ti book. They don't fit  
because the shape of the metal on the monitor's plug, a flattened  
oval and the books port, a flattened rectangle cant fit into each  
other. I tried finding an adapter on both the Apple site and a Belkin  
site but I cant get enough info that would indicate a fit.
Does anyone have such a connection and can you tell me what part  
would work. Thanks for your time and help.

Can't restart

[dan_A]

Hi All-

I have a Alum-book 12"/865MHz running 10.4.1
This afternoon, after using it for an hour or so I shut it down and  
when I turned it back on it wouldn't start up. Black screen. I tried  
several times with same result, doing a forced restart each time...  
because I couldn't get a bong using startup button. I inserted  
DiskWarrior CD and got a start up and went all the way to the select  
drive for repair window. When I selected the main drive I got a black  
rectangle over the DW window which said, in several languages, that I  
have to restart my computer. I hit the restart button and nothing.  
Did a forced restart and got a white screen with text telling me to  
restart via "mac-reboot" or use a close down command. I did a reboot  
and got an error message, which I stupidly didn't take the time to  
record, and which basically said the an enabler could not be found.  
My first guess is that I have corrupt PRAM or NVRAM. I tried to reset  
the PRAM but I'm not sure that the key set is the same as on some  
other machines... Option/Command/P/R. Didn't get any additional  
bongs. Tried Control/Command/P/R. No good.


I tried DW again and got it going to repair main drive directory but  
a DW message appeared as it was searching for directory info,  
forever, which said: running slow because of low memory??? I have 384  
megs of RAM, not a lot, but what should be enough. I'm going to check  
the memory stick to see if became unseated but it doesn't seem likely  
since I've been running well for some time and never dropped or  
jarred the machine.


I would appreciate help on what you think might be happening and if  
this machine has a key sequence for resetting the PRAM or if that  
might even sound like the problem.

Corrupt NVRAM?

[dan_A]

Hi Listas

I have Ti-Book 800MHz with 1gig of RAM, and a 155 GB firewire hd  
attached. I'm running 10.4.1. I've been using this machine as a  
desktop unit, always on and plugged in. I probably killed the battery  
that way but ever since I installed Tiger, I can't restart or shut  
down without forcing those functions. I unplugged the charger to see  
how long the battery would go for... the battery shows 98% to 100%  
charge all the time... but when I unplug the charger I get about 7  
minutes of battery time and then it reads 0. I'm wondering if these 2  
symptoms indicate corrupted NVRAM. The fact that it no longer  
completes a shutdown is what makes me think so. The battery may still  
have some ability to recharge if I reset the PMU. Anyone have any  
thoughts on this? Thanks for your thoughts.

Hi all, I just bought a 20 gig Ipod and it updated as soon as I

What is it doing & when can I use it?




Hi- sorry I didn't get to see your email till now. When it says do  
not disconnect it's charging its battery or loading files. When it  
updated, it was updating the ipod software. The 2 things that will  
happen is it should or should have asked you if you wanted to  
transfer the music in iTunes to the iPod erasing anything that was  
already installed on it. If the battery needs to be recharged it  
would also do that. How long has it been charging? That can take some  
time and it's normal. Did it copy any files. You can see that  
happening in iTunes up where it shows what music is being played. Let  
me know what's happening... and congrats... you'll like it.

Actually, the exact steps would be first to reboot the TiBook from the

the 12" in

FireWire cable
and then the installer should see it as an external drive and you  
should be

able to proceed with the installation.


Fabulous! Thank you very much. I will give this a try later... and  
hopefully whoop about a successful install to the list.

Can I install Tiger via firewire Tibook to Alum book?

[dan_A]

Hi listers...

I have a Tibook with a functioning SuperDrive and a 12" Alumbook with  
a broken combo drive. I would like to install Tiger into the 12"  
book. Can I mount the 12" onto the desktop of the Tibook via a FW  
cable and have the ability to install using the Tibook's superdrive,  
onto the  12"s mounted drive? Or is there another way that I'm just  
not seeing. I have the books networked via a wireless router. Can it  
be done via the network? Thanks for your help.

Hi Kristina,\
Now that I know what you are using I opened 9.1 in one of my computers
to remember and check the settings. To make Netscape open when you
click the links in your emai, do the following: Go to the apple menu
and open *control panels* and navigate down to *Internet* control
panel and open. Scroll across to the *Web* tab and open. Look down at
the bottom of the panel and you'll see *Default Web Browser*... change
the setting to Netscape. Just scroll down till  you see it. While you
have that panel open you can make sure some of your other settings are
correct. Open up the *E-mail* tab. Make sure that your account
settings are correct, ie: user id, incoming and outgoing mail servers
and password. At the bottom of that panel you can select the email
application that you want to use. Close the panel and choose to save
the changes.

I didn't know that you were using OS9 when I mentioned Safari. It is
free but only works with OSX.

Open Netscape. I don't know what version you have... I only have
"Netscape Communicator 4.8" which I don't use anymore. Find Netscape
*preferences*, mine are under the *Edit" menu. When you get the prefs
open you should see a whole list of things. Find *Identity* and make
sure the setting are correct. You don't have to fill in all the stuff
in that panel. Just make sure that your name or nickname and email
address is correct. Then find *Mail Servers* this is the important
panel. Make sure that the *Outgoing mail (SMTP) server* has the
correct info... the same that you set up in your Internet control
panel in system control panels. And at the top of that same panel make
sure  that *incoming mail server* is correctly set. This should enable
your sending emails from your Netscape App. Hope that this helps.

Open Safari if you're running OSX and open preferences (under "safari"

Default Web Browser" change that to Netscape.

3]  And I can't seem to get my netscape mail to work for Sending, it

This is a little more difficult to explain, especially since I dumped  
Netscape because of its slowness, among other things, and use Safari. I  
would need to know a lot more of what you're running. Are you running  
OS 9.x or older? Are you using a version of Netscape Navigator? Are  
talking about sending web mail from a Netscape page?

HARDWARE includes AirPort Base Stations AND the AirPort Express.
SOFTWARE is the AirPort (802.11b) and AirPort Extreme (802.11g) from 
Apple

So an AEBS & APEX both use AEXT, but an ABS(G) or ABS(E) cannot use 
AEXT, but do use AP.

Hi Dan.
this is not really an option (Cables i mean) the Netgear is a 54mbps

get it to bridge between the wired port on the back of the G3 desktop

part to get the ABS to see and connect to the Netgear.

Hi Vicki-
I don't have an ABS but I think that they come in 2 types; one with a 
built in router and one without. If you have the one without, it should 
just be a switch and maybe we can figure it out. If it is the router 
variety, I think that would be your problem. You would have to 
substitute a hub. Each router supplying its own address might be your 
problem.

I'm not sure what you have. Is your netgear a switch or a router? Is it 
a wireless router? If they are both routers then you might be having 
trouble with conflicts. If one of them is a wireless router then use 
that and if you need more cable connections add a 4 (or more) port 
switch or hub (same thing). I don't know if this helps. I have a cable 
modem and use a Belkin wireless router for connecting 2 wireless pb's, 
2 cabled desktop towers, another pb via cable and a laser printer. All 
can go on line from one IP via the router. The Belkin works fine with 
both the Airport and Airport Extreme cards.

There is a different solution. If you sign up for a free efax account
which gives you a fax number out of your area code (to induce you to
buy an 800 number or one in your area code) You can give people this
fax number as a temp or permanent number to use. Anyone who sends a
fax to this number with a conventional fax machine will be effectively
sending you an email with a fax attachment which you can acccess while
you're online. I think that the link is: <http://efax.com>

Touchup paint for the Ti-book

[dan_A]

Hi list-
I was wondering if anyone has experience using the touch up paint for 
the Ti-book chipping syndrome. I just purchased the paint and before I 
use it I would like to make sure that it is done as well as it can be. 
The chipping on the front top edge of the machine has a rough, 
blistered surface. Has anyone tried sanding it down (lightly with a 
very fine grit) being careful of course, not to get dust between the 
keys? And is the paint any good? I already made the purchase but I 
guess that one of my daughters could paint her toe nails with it.

Thanks for your fast answer. You say "when you plug it in"... is that 
into the AC alone or when first connecting to the Al-book. And if into 
the book, then how do I prevent the iPod from wiping out my iTunes file 
in the book, and replacing it with whatever is on the iPod. Sorry, this 
is a new area for me. I did download all the manuals that I could find

A completely different iPod question (OT)

[dan_A]

Hi list-
I have a 12" Al-book on which I have an extensive iTunes library. I 
just purchased a used iPod which may come with some music that I want 
to get rid of. In fact, I would like to set the iPod to its original 
settings, clean of all personalization, as it comes from the store. Is 
there an easy way to return it to this state? If I do this will it want 
to be registered, which I'd have no problems doing, or is that not 
something to do. Does anyone have any source of info on setting up a 
"used" iPod? I wouldn't think that Apple has this info but I might be 
wrong.

Thanks in advance for any help.

For what it does, yes, it is the best IMHO. It doesn't
exactly match the feature set of Techtool though.
It seems to focus on recovery more that preventive.
DiskWarrior is a life saver and fixes and rebuilds your fragmented 
directory (which happens in time with normal use on all computers)... a 
unique solution and supremely effective. The latest version, 3.02 is 
the only one that works with OS 10.3.5. The previous versions came with 
a separate disk defragger... unfortunately they no longer make it 
available on the DW CD. If it still exists, you would have to buy it 
separately. Techtool is a way to go. But whatever else you have for 
disk maintenance/recovery, you should invest in DW because no other 
utility does the type of fix it does. It has recovered a zonked drive 
many times for me... I love it.

Hi,
Try booting, holding the option key down. This should give you a "bent 
arrow" and a "straight arrow" pointing to the right. Click on the 
straight arrow until you see the internal drive icon. Then click on 
that. An alternative way is hit your start button and hold down the 
shift/option/command keys until you see a startup disk. This should 
force the computer to utilize the "next" drive instead of the CD. I 
hope this helps.

Re: Command key

Haven't really followed this thread, but hum.  A quick ad-hoc 
survey of the people in my fav IRC channels right now (200+ people,

"command" or "clover".

It has been the command key for +/- 20 years now...
Personally, I miss the "meta" key.  Like command, option, shift, and 
control, it was a multi-press modifier.  Went by the wayside in the 
early 80s, I guess.

Now where's the Any key?
I've been using the Mac since the Classic and SE/30 days, the eighties, 
and have heard the command key often called the "apple" key for the 
obvious apple drawn on it. Never heard of the clover key. Sorry to 
extend this thread.

airport extreme card incompatability?

[dan_A]

Hi list-
I've been successfully running a 15.5" Ti book with an Airport card and 
a Netgear wireless router for the base station. When I first got the 
book I was able to link up to the network without a problem. I just 
recently added a `12" Al book with an Airport Extreme card. The card 
sees the network without a problem but I can not connect to any of the 
machines on my network nor can I go online. I've tried everything I 
know (which obviously is not enough) to make the connection but I can't 
get it to work. I tried to use the Airport Setup Assistant and that's 
where I think the problem is. The utility seems not to be able to work 
with the router. So, I just want to get some info on this to be sure if 
it's incompatability before I spring for an Airport base station-- and 
if I do, and my wife doesn't kill me, can I get away with the older 
base station- not the extreme? The Extreme card should be backwards 
compatable, I hope. %$#$#@@!

Re: L2 cache not used with Panther???

I have an "old world machine" that uses a hack to run 10.3.5. The L2 
cache is shut down to permit the startup. Once the machine is running 
I use "CPU director" to enable the L2 Cache. So Panther does utilize 
the L2 cache, at least in my case. I think that if it didn't need it 
then my machine would not be able to utilize it. The speed difference 
is quite obvious.

I meant to add that it is probably not the OS that "uses" the L2 Cache, 
but the machine itself, the hardware, that uses it.

I can tell you that I have an old desktop clone running 10.3.5 with a

Keyboard usage question

[dan_A]

Hi list-
My question may seem to be a little "specialized" and a non tech 
problem. Below is a brief background, but the question that is below 
the background should be in the area of general experience... regarding 
the use of a USB keyboard to solve my problem. Thanks for your patience 
and help.

I have a 15" 800 MHz Ti-book in which I'm trying to create a dictionary 
for Sanskrit/English. I'm using File Maker Pro 7 and a Sanskrit font 
which works pretty well. Since Sanskrit has about twice as many letters 
than English, I use alternate key strokes with the Keyboard Viewer and 
the correct keyboard set up.

 My question is about the use of the imbedded number pad. I can't get 
it to work. Does anyone have experience using the number pad? If there 
are limitations with it, does anyone know if a USB extended keyboard 
will allow full accessibility to all the alternate characters assigned 
to the keys?

Help, a CD was swallowed

[dan_A]

Hi List-
Yesterday I inserted a CD into the slot of my 15" Ti-book. It didn't go 
in too smoothly and now wont come out. I don't see a mechanical 
ejection hole or lever. I'm not familiar with slot loaders that much 
except for an iMac that I had. That had the hole and another mechanical 
device on the left and inside the slot.

I hope I don't have to take things apart to get the CD out. I tried the 
eject button and holding the mouse button down. It starts to come out 
and then clicks for a while then spins up again showing back up on the 
desktop.

Any one have a solution besides using a band saw? Thanks for your help.

There is a way to know if your mail reached its destination, not if 
someone opened it. It can't be 100% guaranteed that if you miss-address 
an eMail it will come back to you, sometimes the next day but usually 
almost right away, returned by the daemon mailer as an error. I would 
be addressed to you something like this:

Subject:Undeliverable mail: Re: Mail confirmation.
It won't come back if miss addressed and the address is some-ones 
actual address, though they might get in touch with you about it. If 
your email can't be delivered, it will come back. If it doesn't return 
then someone got it. It's their privilege and choice to open it or toss 
it unread, and that's what's great about email.

As some one mentioned earlier, if you use Photoshop, then G4 makes a 
big difference because of the Altevec engine that it supports, which

Guys- thanks so very much for your time and information. I am set to go now and glad 
to be part of this list.

There are no PowerBook-specific Panther system disk. One set installs on any

I always partition my hard drive because it makes it easier to reformat a
system partition to install a new version (a thing I always did so far). 

Thanks for the fast reply Laurent, it answered most of my questions. Do you know if 
this P"B boots in 9.2.2?

New PB user questions

[dan_A]

Hi Listers-

I'm a new to owning a Powerbook and have some questions.

I recently bought a used 15", G4, 800 MHz Powerbook which has Panther installed. The 
seller gave me the set of system discs that came with the machine, 10.1, without the 
Panther upgrade discs and without documentation. The owner also had no need for OS 9 
so there is no classic installed. Owning a lot of older Macs with different 
requiremets for  installing OS 10, I need some help on the following,  and anything 
else that I might be over-looking from lack of experience--

I also purchased a used, full install set of Panther discs (without printed 
documentation). 

Would this software have the Powerbook CP's or any components that might exist for the 
Powerbook? I didn't see Powerbook specific Panther installation discs at Apple.

Is it necessary to partition the 60 GB drive when I install drivers for 9.2.2-to 
create a separate partition for each OS and relating to this question, does this 
machine boot in 9.2.2?

The machine is beautiful and runs very fast in Panther--I am overwhelmed by it. It 
also seems to get very hot on the bottom--Is this normal and OK?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Dear dan_A,

Just thought I'd share with you what somebody pointed out to me once: the
only "stupid question" is the 
one you don't ask. Don't feel bad - nobody, at least on earth, knows
everything there is to know and 
everybody needs to ask somebody else something sometime (and I speak from
experience!). I guess 
that's what this list is all about.

You're right-Thank you

Those power adapters come with a socketed normal AC style plug that can be removed and

Hi-
Thanks for the reply. So, the extra cord is merely an extension, as I thought, and to 
charge the battery or use AC, I only need the power adapter cord. (unless I am too far 
from the outlet) 

Thanks again.

dan_A,

A real Stupid Question

[dan_A]

Hi Listers-

I'm new to this list because I just received my purchase of a used (and my first) 
G4/800 MHz Titanium 15" power book. The seller didn't send me the manual, but I was 
able to download the Acrobat file from Apple. I guess that my question is so basic 
that the manual doesn't answer it. I put the power cord and the "adapter" cords 
together to charge the battery. My question is: For what purpose is the adapter cord 
used by itself, without the line cord? and, can the battery be charged without the 
line cord? Seems like it should and that the line cord is just more length? I know 
this is on the side of stupid, but I would like to know why the two are supplied 
instead of one. Thanks in advance.
