Try here - http://www.oldapps.com/mac/cyberduck.php

If you remove the coloured plastic (fingernail work) it should, fairly easily

I don’t know of any pictures I’m afraid but it isn’t really tricky.

 Greetings Listers,
 
 I am using a NetGear wireless router in my home, and quite often, especially 
 when my children are at home.the router needs to be reset in order for me 
 to get online.  If I unplug the router (from the electricity)for a couple of 
 seconds and then plug it back in, I can always get back online.  My G4 is 
 connected via a CAT5 cable. The problem is: the router lives in my garage and 
 is not close to my G4 in the basement.
 Is ther a command of some kind that I can send to the router from the 
 basementor must I continue to make that long walk to the garage?
 

Your router shouldn’t need to be reset so frequently. What do your children do!

However, if you type in the ip address of your router into the address bar of a 
browser you will be taken to the router’s set up page (after being prompted for 
a user name and password - usually “admin” for user name and “password” or 
“admin” for password, without the quotes.)
Somewhere on the left sidebar there will be a “Diagnostics” section. Click on 
this and you should find reboot or restart router at the bottom of this page.

How exactly are you measuring this speed?

Inaccurately. By downloading a 5MB file from the same server and noting
the data transfer rate in the download window.


Please clarify your units.  Do you mean megabytes per second or megabits?

Sorry, I mixed units!  The G5 bottom port  - 400kbps, G5 top port -
20-30kbps, all other machines 20-30kbps (kilobits per second)


Two ethernet ports on the G5?  One is built-in and the other is
something you added?

Both built in


Check to see what speed your ethernet link has sync'd at.

Not done that yet but my Macbook connects with other ethernet networks at
full 1000mbps yet when using the same cable and router port as the G5
bottom ethernet port, the speed changes.
It seems as though whatever cable is plugged into the G5 bottom port, I
get expected transfer speed from the internet but anything else plugged in
the speed plummets. I haven't yet tried transferring data between machines
- will do later.

Re: LOST PASSWORD

2010-05-20 Thread Andy
 Once booted, you'll have to click through a few screens until a menu bar
 appears at the top. Go up there and find the reset password utility. Once
 you've changed either or both passwords (Do not give Root a password!), close
 the utility

This won't however change your Keychain password which will remain as it
was. If you can't remember it the only option is then to create a new
keychain.

 FYI: You don't have to enter an actual password. I have a number of clients,
 including some schools, that leave the two password fields blank (they hit
 Enter/Return after each line)

This is ok if you don't use Terminal as sudo, IIRC, won't accept a blank
password. Certainly in Tiger, not sure about Leopard.

 The data is stashed in ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/...

   Perhaps a cool use for Dropbox... Put a symlink of that

 them all sync'd automagically from then on!  Should check the Dropbox

 I feel like This has been hashed over here before, but I could not

 So, can a MDD dual processor be put in a Dual 450 GigE?
 
 Thanks,
 Peter
 
 Absolutely, yes! I did the conversion on a GigE Dual G4/450
 (overclocked to 500MHz). Works great! I replaced the stock fans in the
 PSU with some 35cfm quiet fans I bought at fry's Electronics.
 
 I mounted the MDD PSU to the top inside of the GigE case...

Lots of clear information on how to install a MDD POWER SUPPLY but the OP
was asking if a MDD processor could be installed, which it can't!

Re: Single boop on startup

2009-11-14 Thread Andy
 Hi folks,
 
 I've got a G4 that's giving me startup problems.

Which G4? Tower? Powerbook? Ibook?
 

 currently just getting a single boop tone on start up.

On all G4 Towers except the PCI graphics, 1 beep at startup means that
either there's no RAM installed or no RAM can be detected.
 
 I've swapped processors, ram,

Swapped RAM with Known good RAM ? Could be RAM slots not functioning, RAM
not seated properly, dirty connections?

If you could provide a little more information we'd have more to go on.

Andy

Hi, I did post this on the G Book list but no one has responded yet. There
is a some urgency about it so I thought I¹d post the same question here.

Would a G4 iBook DC in board be compatible with a 12² G4 PowerBook i.e.
could I use the DC in board from a G4 iBook in a 12² PowerBook?
Thanks

Re: PM G5 webcam

2009-05-06 Thread Andy

 
 Anyone have any suggestions for a webcam for my PM G5?  I'm running OSX
 10.5.6.  I wanted an iSight, but ebay seems to be selling them for triple
 their original price.  I have heard that USB 2.0 cams work now with OS X.  I
 wanted it for video chatting with family in the U.S.
 
 Thanks in advance!
 
I use an aGent web cam. They're an Australian company and these are really
good quality web cams. I have a version 2 and they're now up to version 4.

Here's an ebay link for one http://tinyurl.com/cbwtxb

 G4 iMac, running 10.4.11.
 In the past week, I have noticed that the desktop screen keeps
 re-drawing every few minutes.
 
 I've had this happen a few times, in Tiger.  Turned out to be a
 poorly sized background picture.  The fix was to dump
 ~/Library/Caches/Desktop/ then select a different picture in the
 system prefs.
 
 Could also be apps like StuffIt or even hardware, as others suggest, tho.

Look in System Pref. If you have a pref pane called Stuffit AVR and it's
checked... Uncheck it.

 Thinking maybe 10.4 can pop up a Finder window with my most recently

 Or is there something else?

Re: What wi-fi cards will fit a G4 MDD?

2009-02-10 Thread Andy

 I have an Airport Extreme card in my MDD. Jeff

You must have a FW800 G4 MDD, the others only support original Airport
cards. So if you want greater range/ more bandwidth you have to go the USB
or PCI route.

Re: Finder Windows Jump to the Front

2009-02-01 Thread Andy

 
 Two members of our user group have similar problems.  One with a DP
 G5, the other with an iMac, both running Tiger 10.4.11.  A finder
 window becomes the active window automatically.  Both have tried
 deleting the Finder preferences and repairing permissions.
 
 Please advise.
 

Look in the system logs. Is the Finder repeatedly crashing?
Do you have Stuffit Deluxe installed?

Router problem?

2009-01-30 Thread Andy

A Macbook connects happily via airport through a netgear router/modem but a
G4 desktop connected via ethernet gets a self assigned ip address connected
to the the same router.
If I connect the macbook or another computer using the same ethernet cable
to the same router, they connect happily.
All configurations are using DHCP.
Is this likely to be the ethernet port on the G4 faulty or the system on the
G4 messed up? Or something else? Renewing the DHCP lease on the G4 doesn¹t
resolve the problem.
Both Macs running 10.4.11.

What should I try next?

 A very good question and the answer is you can't.  At least without
 downloading a sound editor or other recording software.  Audacity comes to
 mind as adequate and free.  Not sure how Windows got that over OS X, but they
 have always included a simple sound recorder app.  HTH

 Hello Doug,
 You¹ll need one of any of a number of good, cheap (free) recording apps, like
 Audacity, Amadeus, or Audio Hijack (for ex.). These will know what your
 default input device is once booted up, and you¹re good to go.
 HTH,
