RE: Compatibility JVC Averio Video Camera HD Mac
According to a quick Google search, the JVC Everio saves files in a non-standard format that uses a .MOD extension. Here I'm assuming that you can connect to the camera OK, but are seeing your videos saved as .MOD files. Preliminary research seems to indicate that if you simply rename the file from whatever.MOD to whatever.MPG, you should be able to open it in Quicktime. Let us know if you have any problems renaming the file. Eric -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

Several G3 iMac DV 400 MHz questions
I originally posted this on Apple Discussions but thought I'd ask here also. Please ignore #1 as I have determined that the updater is not needed. My sister has asked me to wipe out everything on the hard drive and reinstall Mac OS 9.2.2 plus Mac OS 10.4.11. Since it has been YEARS that I've done any OS 9 installs I have a few questions. 1. Before I start wiping and installing, I want to see if iMac Firmware Updater 4.1.9 needs to be installed. Is there an entry in Apple System Profiler that indicates this? 2. I plan on erasing the hard drive and have it zeroed. Since I know it will boot up into FireWire Target Disk Mode, I was planning on erasing the drive that way. Any problems doing it so? 3. Since I have a 9.2.2 install CD, I will boot from it to install Mac OS 9.2.2. However, how should I go about installing Mac OS 10.4? Boot from the DVD, or just do the install while the iMac is running on 9.2.2? I've never installed both OS 9.x and OS 10.x from scratch before. 4. Since I don't have any way to connect this old iMac to the Internet, is there any other way to run the Software Updaters for OS 9 OS 10? Perhaps by connecting it with an Ethernet cable to my PowerBook and sharing it's Internet connection? Any other advice would be welcome. -- Sincerely, Dennis B.

Mac G4
If this is the wrong site for these kind of questions. Someone please point me in the right direction. I have a PowerMac Machine Model, Mac 4.5 (version=2.1) G4 with OSX 10.2.8 (6R730 installed and 512 SDRAM in DIMM1/J20. The HD has 110 avail. Boot Rom 4.4.5f3. I am new to Mac and not really familar with Mac computers and am still all thumbs on some operations. We have downladed and installed all the latest updates. We had to install a new HD. Everything seems to operate OK... except I can't install the latest version of iTunes 10. After downloading and trying to install, It says install of iTunes cannot be opened. The Bill of Materials for this package was not found. What does that mean? I have. Any help, ideas or recommendations about how to install iTunes 10 is really appreciated from a novice such as me.

Since I know it will boot up into FireWire Target Disk Mode, I was planning on erasing the drive that way. Any problems doing it so? Nope, no problems. I do this all the time. Depending on the size of the HD, zeroing could take a while... 3. Since I have a 9.2.2 install CD, I will boot from it to install Mac OS 9.2.2. However, how should I go about installing Mac OS 10.4? Boot from the DVD, or just do the install while the iMac is running on 9.2.2? I've never installed both OS 9.x and OS 10.x from scratch before. I don't think that the 10.4 installer will run in OS9. Best to boot from the DVD. If you're going to use OS9 in Classic mode, it would probably be better to install OSX first. 4. Since I don't have any way to connect this old iMac to the Internet, is there any other way to run the Software Updaters for OS 9 OS 10? Perhaps by connecting it with an Ethernet cable to my PowerBook and sharing it's Internet connection? That'll work. I do that all the time. On your Powerbook, just go into the Sharing preferences, and turn on Internet sharing from Airport to Ethernet. Make sure that both computers are set to DHCP. Be sure to turn it off when your'e done, because it can cause networking problems. This works OK sharing internet to OS9, but it's harder to get OS9 to connect up to the internet while doing this. Any other advice would be welcome. If you can, max out the RAM. It'll run so much better, and your sister will never regret it. Especially if you're going to be running OS9 in Classic mode.

Don't forget to partition the drive while you're in Disk Utility after you zero it out. Internet sharing has never worked for me as easily as it seems it should be. Be sure to turn off the firewall in the Sharing or Security preference pane (depending on OS version). Whenever I've used internet sharing I've always ended up having to futz with it, sorry I can't be more specific than that. You could also just disconnect your PowerBook and connect the iMac directly, that might actually be easier. Another way to go would be to get a router, not only does that allow you to connect more than one computer to the internet it also provides a hardware firewall.

When you initialize the disk, be sure to include the OS 9 drivers - if you want to boot on OS 9. Otherwise all you can do with the OS 9 installation is use it as Classic mode under Tiger. Boot on the OS X DVD and install Tiger. Boot on Tiger. Insert the OS 9 disc and run that installer. 4. Since I don't have any way to connect this old iMac to the Internet, is there any other way to run the Software Updaters for OS 9 OS 10?

It will turn your PowerBook into a router for a while... Thanks for the info, Dan. I haven't tried booting from the Tiger disc yet, but I'll give it a go. Another decision is should I partition the drive and put Tiger on one and OS 9 on the other, or should I just leave the 40 GB drive as 1? -- Sincerely, Dennis B.

I did not see a Mac 4.5 in Mactracker so I am going to assume it is as you said a Power Mac. Technically this should go to either the G list or the Jaguar (10.2) list. Also when starting a new thread it is best to create a new topic rather than hijacking an existing topic. When a topic gets hijacked your message gets buried with all the messages relating to the original topic. You'll get better results with a new topic.

Any help, ideas or recommendations about how to install iTunes 10 is really appreciated from a novice such as me. iTunes 10 will not support Jaguar (10.2), Panther (10.3), or Tiger (10.4). If you look around Apple's site, either under iTunes or under support you should find a download for a version that will run on 10.2.8. Also I would suggest upgrading to Tiger if you can as it is more refined and supports more software. Apple no longer supports it but it is much better than Jaguar. Ever Panther would be a little bit better, Jaguar is about seven or eight years old now. Unfortunately Apple's OS' don't have the longevity of Microsoft's.
