Re: Classic on Ruby Red iMac
Jim, I have the CD of 9.0. Held down the C key and booted from the CD. The install attempt failed. I got a message that said I could not install 9 on the volume with 10.4 and to choose Options. The choice there was a Clean install and I don't really know what that entails, so I quit the installer. What did I miss doing? The iMac firmware is up to date. Jane Jane, A Clean Install is what you want. It creates a new System Folder, and that folder will be OS 9. You will then have Classic on your iMac.

Newbie! Memory and Video card upgrade for G4 dual 867Mhz PowerPc
Hi! I'm TOTALLY new to Mac, so pardon me if I sound clueless! I have a G4 dual 867Mhz with nVidia 32MB AGP display, running Mac OS 10.3.9. I'd like to upgrade to OS 10.5. Therefore, I'm thinking of upgrading the RAM to 2GB, which is the max. 1. What's the memory stick that I can use? 512MBper stick or 1GB or 2GB? 2. For the VRAM, is 32MB the max? 3. How can I upgrade my 60GB HDD to 160GB? Any 3.5 IDE HDD will do? Can I do clone my existing HDD to the new HDD without re-installing everything? If yes, how/what software do I use? I'm also thinking of replacing the DVD-ROM with a DVD-RW. Will any DVD-writer do? Appreciate some advice on this. Thanks.

Re: Newbie! Memory and Video card upgrade for G4 dual 867Mhz PowerPc
It is not necessary although might be preferable to have to use an external HD for moving stuff from the old hard drive ot the new one. Your internal HD is probably identified via jumpers as Master. Any IDE HD can be installed as a slave, assuming that the ribbon cable and power supply are available in your machine (they should be). After installing a slave HD, and initializing and reformating HFS+ and as you please (I.E. - with or without partitions), then download CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) on your Master HD by going to Google and typing Carbon Copy Cloner and then slecting Carbon Copy Cloner Mac. I got 101,000 hits and here is the very first link. Carbon Copy Cloner - HomeExplore Carbon copy cloner · Support · Download · Home Features Support Donate Contact © 2002-2009 Bombich Software, LLC. Carbon Copy Cloner Icon. www.bombich.com/ Download CCC and install as instructed and follow the instructions for copying from the Master HD to the slave HD. After CCC finishes (it might take anywhere from 20 minutes to close to an hour) , you should be able to boot from your slave HD by gooong to Systems Preferences and selecting the slave HD. Good luck.

Which PRAM Battery Should I Buy?
Hi Listers, My G4 1.5 GHz Mac Mini needs a PRAM battery. Does anyone know what brands/specs of PRAM battery this Mac takes? Googling didn't suggest any brands. I ask because someone on the swap list (with whom I've had a prior good dealing) is selling PRAM batteries -- I'd like to buy from him IF he's selling the correct battery for my Mini. This is what he's selling: 3.6 Volt 1/2 AA-sized Lithium PRAM batteries (2 brands: Saft LS 14250 C or Tadiran TL-5101/TL-5112/TL2150/etc.) So which of those can I buy, if any, and if not, what should I buy instead?

Re: iMac crashes
I have not had much success using usb wireless adapters with older iMacs. The mac drivers tend to be buggy, and the usb 1.1 bus on the iMac tends to be a bottleneck.

Re: Data Recovery Part 2
You may try Test Disk for especially for Windows partion... it is free... and it may find your volume and you may recover it. Go on their site and carefully read it. If you do not use any other program or anything you may rescue your data One above recommend software i used (Data Rescue 3) for Mac OS X, i do not have experience on Windows volumes with it. I have lots of experience with Test Disk on Windows even ntfs volumes. If you made quick format and do not write anything after wards definetly you will rescue volume (larger disk needs time for search and build data order) but please read carefull from Test Disk official site before it. Under link have some special experience about Test Disk on Mac OS X volumes... you may find orginal site of test disk in there. http://www.macosxapplications.com/system-disk-utilities/testdisk-photorec-6-11-3-data-recovery/ 2009/11/12 John Musbach johnmusba...@gmail.com On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 11:36 PM, Paul pper...@gmail.com wrote: Has anyone tried File Salvage?

Powermac G4 1.2ghz powerlogix question with OS 9
Hello, I have a heavily upgraded powermac G4 sawtooth unit (superdrive/1.2 GB RAM/powerlogix CPU/SATA drive adapter and SATA drives).

As soon as the computer boots from the os 9 disc it freezes at the desktop. I have tried an OS 9.2.2 disc and an OS 9.0.4 disc. Has anyone else encountered this problem as well?

Still not working. Double-check the Server Settings for each smtp server for each account. Make sure the port, ssl, and authentication selections are correct. I've seen several instances where those settings were lost. I checked all accounts and everything is there... and I can't see any error. Three different accounts are not sending: all gmail accounts, all mac.com accounts and aliases and my provider verizon. One server works which is on my own domain. I never saw this happen before. dan_A -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: Powermac G4 1.2ghz powerlogix question with OS 9
crhm85 wrote: Hello, I have a heavily upgraded powermac G4 sawtooth unit (superdrive/1.2 GB RAM/powerlogix CPU/SATA drive adapter and SATA drives). Everything works great with the powerlogix cpu upgrade in Leopard, but the one thing I cannot do is boot off an os 9 disc and install the OS. As soon as the computer boots from the os 9 disc it freezes at the desktop. I have tried an OS 9.2.2 disc and an OS 9.0.4 disc. Has anyone else encountered this problem as well? It may be corrupt Desktop files on the HD. Try holding down the Command-Option keys as the computer is booting. It will come up with a confirmation message. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
