A Pismo QuickTime OSX question
Hi Everybody, I recently installed OSX.2 in my Pismo and I 've been experiencing a wierd thing. When I download QT mpegs, especially large ones they play in a very abbreviated manner. Like one that's 100 megs or more will complete at about a minute into it and I KNOW that it's much longer. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Also a friend with a G3 and OS9 says that he can make a QT movie play longer by clicking back at the beginning when the little traveling gizmo comes to a stop- up to many repetitions Thanks!

Re: OSX question
You can buy a firewire pci card to do the target disk mode thing. I have one in my beige g3 and it works great!

You can use target Firewire mode (as described in other responses), but making a bootable copy of OS X is not as easy. You can't just drag the disk onto another disk. Try using Carbon Copy Cloner. It works really good. I second Mick suggestion. You might not be able to copy all the hidden files on an OS X startup volume just by copying at the Finder. Use Carbon Copy Cloner. -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelinhttp://nemesys.dyndns.org Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] brain dump n.: [common] The act of telling someone everything one knows about a particular topic or project.

Thanks Mike This will only work if your beige G3 has a firewire port. Connect a firewire cable between the machines with your Pismo turned off, Start it up and hold down the T key. This should cause your Pismo's hard drive to be mounted on your G3's Desktop. Treat it like any volume on the G3. Joe Ellis -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
