Make sure your system volume is high enough, in the first place.

Audion has a maximizer tool that increases the volume on wimpy 
streams.  Works quite well.


Drives me nutz that some streams are just so quiet.

External speakers with their own gain control are the best solution.

Newbie OSX Volume Q

2005-01-27 Thread Aase Marit Waage
Hi all,
I have noticed one thing while installing some trial versions of 
software etc. on my iBook with OS X. When I have installed, a 
Volume appears on the desktop. That is something I have never seen 
before, and I wonder what it is really about. I tried trashing one, 
and as far as I could see, it did not cause me any problems. As far 
as I understand, e.g. the HD is a volume. But what is the reason for 
software making volume icons appear on the desktop? What functions do 
these have, is there any reason to keep them etc.

I did read a bit in Mac Help, but it didn`t really make me understand 
much more. So I am hoping for some input on the subject...

Thanks a lot!
Aase :)

Re: Newbie OSX Volume Q

2005-01-27 Thread Tim Collier
These are disk images...not harmful at all.  When you are done with it just
eject it and it's gone!  Also you can delete the original file that you
downloaded, or you can keep it in storage somewhere in case you need to
re-install some time later.  Then just double click it and it'll make that
same disk image again.
So, no, there is no reason to keep them, they're just so you can install the
software from a compressed file.

Re: Newbie OSX Volume Q

2005-01-27 Thread Aase Marit Waage
Thanks a lot, Tim! I had ejected or trashed several of these, then 
when I started wondering what they were, I wondered if I had done 
something I shouldn`t have... For now i have stored all the 
downloaded installers, as I plan on re-installing the system. I just 
have not had the time yet. It is a bit scary though, just because I 
never did it before, but now scary can it be. What has been wonderful 
all these years, has been that when I have had some kind of problem, 
even if I might not think initially that I can, I have always been 
able to work it out and fix it. I have never had a need to do a 
re-install though. This time that is probably the only wise thing to 
do, then start over again, with no french stuff lurking around and 
only my own account... :)

Hi  Laurent,
I was talking about the harddisk-looking icon that pops up on the 
desktop after installing some software. When I hit Command+I on it, 
it says that it is a Volume.

Did that make more sense?
Anyway, I was glad to read that I didn`t need to keep these, and that 
I had not done anything wrong by tossing them out! :)

Re: 9.2.2 boot doesn't mount OS X volume

2004-03-07 Thread Jeff Hubatka
Date: Sat, 6 Mar 2004 17:04:33 -0800
From: Jonathan R. Andrew [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: 9.2.2 boot doesn't mount OS X volume
Standard Apology:  I checked the database and didn't see any articles
addressing this, so excuse this repeat if it is one.
Equip:  Lombard (G3 333 PB) 384MB/40GB, partitions:  OS 10.2.8 (25GB)
, OS 9.2.2 (7GB), non-bootable (6GB).
Problem:  When I boot in 9.2.2, at startup I get a message suggesting
I initialize an unreadable volume which turns out to be the OSX
volume.  I click no of course, but that leaves me stranded in OS
9.2.2 without a way to re-boot in OSX because, since it couldn't be
mounted, it is not an option in the Startup Disk control panel.  I
tried a bunch of stuff to find a way to mount the sucker, but failed
on everything.  Of course, booting from the OSX disk doesn't help,
because it doesn't allow you access to the Startup Disk control
panel, and doesn't just boot a base system;  it boots the install
system.  I finally have had to choose netboot in the Startup Disk
control panel from 9.2.2, which doesn't find a server after a few
minutes, and then boots the newest system it can find on local
volumes.
Anybody know what's going on here?  I'm tired of this issue.

Thanks,

-jra
Sounds like when you initialized/partitioned the drive the OS9 drivers 
weren't installed on the OSX volume. It's a check box during the 
partition process. You may have to wipe/re-initialize that partition in 
order to get the drivers enabled for OS9.

It sounds like you didn't add the OS9 drivers when you partitioned the 
drive.  The only way I know how to resolve this is back up, wipe the 
drive, and repartion the drive with the OS9 drivers.

Re: 9.2.2 boot doesn't mount OS X volume

2004-03-06 Thread Hal
If the OSX partition is the first one on the disk (i.e. was at the top 
of the list when you formatted the volume), you should be able to boot 
from that partition by holding down the 'D' key when rebooting the 
Powerbook. If I remember right, that attempts to boot from the first 
partition on the internal drive.

Also, doesn't the system look for an OSX boot volume if you hold down 
the 'X' key?

I'm pretty sure either of these should work. Anyone else confirm one or 
both?

Hope that helps.

Re - Spam volume

 people. Another thing that has been a real treat
 is that with earthlink
 I was inundated with BAD spam (you know what I
 mean) to the tune of 20
 to 30 a day. With Verizon I get none, absolutely
 none. I hope I don't
 jinx it by saying that out loud on a list. Go for
 it.

Been with Earthlink for several years and get two or three pieces of
spam a day.

Check my Earthlink filter (online, every 10 days or so) and there are
usually about 10 to 20 emails there to delete.

I try to be very careful about giving out my email address too casually,
using a throw-away email address at Mailinator (free) instead.

Spam Volume [was : Re: OT: Internet Service Provider?]

2004-02-26 Thread Doug Behr
 people. Another thing that has been a real treat
 is that with earthlink
 I was inundated with BAD spam (you know what I
 mean) to the tune of 20
 to 30 a day. With Verizon I get none, absolutely
 none. I hope I don't
 jinx it by saying that out loud on a list. Go for
 it.

One reason you're probably seeing less spam is that
you have a new e-mail address...

If your new address is posted on the web, it will be
only a matter of time before it is harvested and the
spam begins again.

My primary e-mail address (and about two dozen
forwarding aliases) appear all over my various web
sites.  Because of this I receive about 2000 UCE per
month.  I recently posted a totally fresh address (new
address, new domain, etc) on a web site for which I've
done from freelance work.  I started receiving spam
and virus infected e-mails on that address within 3
weeks of it appearing on the 'net.

As far as I can tell, as long as there is e-mail,
there will be spam.

Re: Volume Wrapper

2003-09-20 Thread Adam Thayer
Sorry, the Volume Wrapper is actually an HFS+ specific thing. The 
Volume Wrapper is a chunk of HFS information to allow the ROMs in older 
machines to properly boot an HFS+ drive, since this wrapper is part of 
the HFS+ specification, all HFS+ partitions have it. The significance 
could be large or small... but personally, I would run Disk Utility off 
the OS X install CD (if your iBook has it) to do the repairs of 
something like that rather than Disk Warrior.

If Disk Utility can't fix it... then it would appear to be a bad drive, 
run the Hardware Diagnostic CD that came with the iBook and if errors 
come up there, it is time to call Apple to get the drive replaced.

Re: Volume Wrapper

2003-09-20 Thread Hamlin Krewson
Whether it's corrupted during or after formatting the drive, what's the 
difference. The end result is the same, and one still needs to rule out 
the same possible issues (software, hardware (drive), hardware (logic)).

Yet, the damage doesn't need to come from bad formatting... the data 
can corrupt just like any other file on the disk, as it is accessed 
and changed by OS X periodically.

 remember installing anything under 9 with it? Even if you say no, that

 Nope.  Firewire is not involved here.  However, the PCMCIA interface
 has also been used by the Kanguru external drives, among others.  The

 but no drivers were needed for Macintosh.
 
 I've also just tested the drive on a Powerbook 3400 under OS 8.6, and

 It begins to sound like drivers are not built-in to Jaguar, and I guess
 this is such a niche market that there never will be any.  Alas.

Jim, I have one of these drive shuttles - and indeed it used to work 
just fine under OS 9.

Now, I haven't used mine in ages (laziness, I guess) but I'm beginning 
to suspect that OS X isn't recognizing the card as something with which 
it needs to do something.  You know how when you connect a FireWire 
drive the volumes on it get automatically mounted?  Well, I think that 
perhaps automount is run when you insert this card.

Two things, the first of which is relatively simple.  Have you tried 
restarting your powerbook with that card inserted?  Second, I wonder if 
there isn't a Terminal command that might need to be run to get the 
volumes to mount.

hmm... *ponders*

PCMCIA volume not Recognized on Pismo

2003-01-16 Thread Jim
Dear Listreaders,

I've got a puzzle.  I've owned and enjoyed the model MacAlly CA-250MA 
2.5 hard drive enclosure, which under MacOS 8.6 gave me full 
bootability with my Powerbook 1400.  (This device is an external 
housing into which one puts a standard 2.5 IDE hard drive. The housing 
has a cable attached to a PCMCIA card that, when plugged into the 
PC-Card slot on the laptop, allows the external disk to show up on the 
desktop just like an internal or firewire volume.  It offers very fast 
data transfer rates, and is bus powered--though an external power 
supply is provided if necessary.)

When I migrated to a G3 Powerbook 2000 firewire, and Mac OS 9.2, I 
found that I was no longer able to boot from the PCMCIA drive, as such 
bootability evidently is not supported on this model powerbook.  But at 
least I still had a handy portable drive.  However, I have recently 
upgraded this Powerbook G3 2000 firewire (Pismo) to Mac OS X Jaguar 
10.2.3 and find that the PCMCIA drive is no longer recognized as a 
volume!  (If I startup again in OS 9, the drive works fine).  The Disk 
Utility program does not find the PC-Card disk, either.

Can anyone explain why Jaguar refuses to acknowledge or access my nice 
PCMCIA-linked hard drive?  And even better, can anyone suggest a fix?

I did inquire with MacAlly, but got an unhelpful response about zapping 
PRAM.

Cheers,
--Jim.

 PCMCIA-linked hard drive?  And even better, can anyone suggest a fix?

Is your PCMCIA card a FireWire card? If not, then this is somekind of
proprietary interface which doesn't have a driver for in OS X. Do you
remember installing anything under 9 with it? Even if you say no, that would
probably be not conclusive, since there is much better PCMCIA support in 9
then there is in X. The only PCMCIA I've seen working in X were USB and
FireWire cards.

Re: PCMCIA volume not Recognized on Pismo

2003-01-16 Thread Jim
Oh, I should comment:

 However, I have recently upgraded this Powerbook G3 2000 firewire 
 (Pismo) to Mac OS X Jaguar 10.2.3 and find that the PCMCIA drive is 
 no longer recognized as a volume!  (If I startup again in OS 9, the 
 drive works fine).  The Disk Utility program does not find the 
 PC-Card disk, either.

When I plug the PC-Card into my Pismo, I *do* get a little PCMCIA 
icon/menu in my menu-bar, to the right of the help menu and to the 
left of the battery indicator.  This menu lists three entries, 
Shining (greyed out), PMIDE-ASC (greyed out), and Power off Card 
which does exactly what you might think it would.

The Apple System Profiler does show that there is a PC-Card present; 
type=cardbus; model=TXN,PCI1211-00; vendor ID=104c; device ID=ac1e.

Thanks for any and all help/suggestions!

--Jim.

Re: iTunes volume rip

 Tony:
 My music teacher wants to buy an iBook (so this isn't _that_
 far OT), and had a question. He wants to be able to adjust the  volume
 on a per-track basis of songs that he'll import from some  CD's he's
 burned.
 
 Not trying to sound abrasive, but does the iBook purchase hinge on this?
 I don't think it does what he wants it to do.
 
 However if he is going to be doing several such custom burns, you are on
 the right track with Toast w/ Jam, for sure. Probably be to his benefit
 not to rely on free software for specialized functions. What I'm
 getting at is that it sounds like he's better off spending the $$.
 
 Having said that, see if SoundApp can't adjust volume while ripping.
 Either way, I'm not sure he'd know what level to adjust it to without
 playing/importing first anyway. Or, it may be able to adjust the sound,
 covert the file into another format (which may save the changed
 volume?) then convert it back into AIFF so that iTunes/Disk Burner or
 Toast can make the audio CD.

Once the track is imported, you can always adjust the volume, using the
vu-meter as an indication. Not very precise, but that helps bring all the
tracks close to the same output. When you then burn that track, it's burned
with the volume amplification. That's what I did when burning an audio CD
made of old rock songs and newer ones.

 The brightness keys can be enabled by launching DisplayServices.app,

 is is /System/Library/Displays. I've added this to my login items.

 The volume keys, though, have me stumped.

Thanks for the tip!
