Re: faxing from my powerbook
Modem selection is via the Fax dialog box. If you can't find the external modem (You're using an external modem?) then I guess you have a hardware issue. Why not use the internal modem? We're talking phone modems here, the internal things that connect to a wall phone connector via the nice little old-fashioned phone wire. We are not talking about DSL modems connected via ethernet or router of some sort. If you have a phone wire from you powerbook connected to the phone connector on your wall and it's a working phone connection your Mac should find the connection when you're in the fax dialog box.

What are you using for an external modem? How are you hooking it up? How are you trying to send the fax?

Your mileage may vary with Panther or some such, but I think all of X can do faxes over the internal modem. John On Sep 22, 2005, at 4:08 PM, tamara buffalo wrote: I have cable internet .

No There are ways using the internet, but that involves (in every case I know) an account ($$) with a service such as efax. The powerbook does that for free - included in OS X, at least panther tiger. Make as if to print (command-p) and then search around the print dialog box somewhere there is a fax option. I just found it in the PDF menu in Tiger. Your machine will just call up the fax number at the other end, so no dialup account is needed, but you will pay long- distance charges if it's not a local call.
