Hello Kasey, The reason I said I thought it would belong on the G-group is because the old iMac design line similar to the eMac was discontinued at least a couple years when the new iMac G5s where out. And yes it seems better in the G list because it was only ever available in the G4 PPC CPU. Heck it doesn't really matter too much though. I know now. Better yet maybe 'iMac and /eMac List'? I've been keeping an eye out for this new revelation and have yet to find out. I'm still curious! =) The eMac (I have the 1.25 USB 2.0) is a really nice Mac. ~Mike -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

Re: Attn: eMac owners
The group existed as the iMac List long before the eMac was introduced. Rather than change the group name or create a group just for eMacs, we added eMacs to the FAQ for the iMac List. (We've recently done the same thing in adding Snow Leopard to our Leopard group.)

Re: USB 2.0 Up-Grade for iMac (17--inch Flat Panel, 1GHz)
I use the UK version of this: http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-F5D7330-802-11g-Wireless-Ethernet/dp/B00020H1TG to hook up my iMac 17 800MHz to my WiFi network.

Re: USB 2.0 Up-Grade for iMac (17--inch Flat Panel, 1GHz)
You'll need an Airport card and adapter (furniture), and putting it in is easy. You will also need the Airport software; this should be easy to find. Look on eBay. There are non-Apple wireless connectors, too; take a look on eBay. They are smaller and I know they work very well!

Secondly, just get an Airport card for the thing. Adding an airport to one of the lampshade models is pretty easy, just pop the big metal cover off the bottom and the airport slot is right there.

Re: USB 1 problems?
On a related note, I am not an expert - I was told recently that I had to retire my beloved AFGA scanner, because the USB ports on the back of my Intel-chip IMac seem to be shorting out - every time I restart, I get the USB overlimit message, stating the port will be deactivated - I have to unplug all USB stuff, then restart, then plug USB stuff back in again, all USB ports act the same when this happens. I was told this was a problem with USB 1, that USB 1 stuff seems to short out the USB ports? Is this expensive to replace these USB ports on my IMac? I finally went with an all in one HP officejet 6500, the wired version.

I finally went with an all in one HP officejet 6500, the wired version. I've mixed and match lots of USB 1 and 2 devices on computers with USB 1 and 2 ports. I've occasionally run into over current warnings but never anything that couldn't be explained by a bus powered hub or some bad USB device. I suspect you have one bad piece of USB hardware that's causing trouble. It's also problem you are having a problem with your USB ports but that's unlikely. You could try doing a PMU reset. You can't replace the USB ports on the iMac, you'd have to replace the whole logic board. -- 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 the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

Re: Camera won't upload to iMac G5

Me thinks you have a problem specific to your setup. I have Tiger 10.4.11 running on a G4 QuickSilver. It has Classic installed and I have a number of old programs on it and I have no problems with it opening with the correct application. In fact I have some real old apps that I haven't used in years, I hadn't used them since I was using a system running OS 9. For some of the documents I didn't realize I still had the app installed until I double clicked on the doc and it launched the app under Classic. And I have also used the Change All quite successfully. Thanks for your response and your report that Tiger works properly with Classic on your computer. I wish I knew how to make Classic on my iMac G5 work under Tiger as well as your G4 does. Since writing my first message to this group, I tried the Change All command; I only succeeded in making all of my text files created by BBEdit Lite appear now as TextEdit files. Several years ago I found that I could restore the Creator Application as the Opening Application by replacing the preference file com.apple.LaunchServices.plist with an older version of the same file. That remedy worked again today. Without my knowing why, the camera import problem has now disappeared. I can now use Image Capture or iPhoto or Canon's CameraWindow -- they all work properly. All I did was to install the version of Mac OS X 10.4.2 (the original system that came with the iMac G5) on a bootable external FireWire drive, and later booted up with that drive to test the installation. I don't see how this could have affected the system on my computer's internal HD, but it apparently did. So at the moment I seem to be back to where I was before I sent my original message. I hope my system stays in good condition from now on. Thanks to all who made suggestions. I haven't had time, with all the system installations, research, and attempts at repair, to read the iMac list for the past three days, but I hope to catch up next week.
