Re: No Mouse with AHT

[ALLNIGHTVI]

Check your mice.  I've had a similar problem and believe it or not, it  was 
just that the mouse was incompatible.  Try the same type that came with  
the machine, in fact try several.  Just a hunch.  You may hae to try  several 
to be on the safe side.  Trust me on this one.  Peace, _AllnightVi@aol.com_

I just  got a G4 iMac. It's a 15" 800MHZ model. I wanted to run Apple 
Hardware Test on  it to be sure it was solid before I start working on it. It 
currently has  10.3.9 on it and the mouse works fine, but as soon as I boot 
into the hardware  test, the mouse won't move. The light on the mouse is on, 
and I'm able to use  the Tab key on the keyboard to switch between the 
different categories, so I  know the machine isn't frozen. I've tried old puck 
mice, and newer pro mice,  but no change.

I would really appreciate some input on  this.

Thanks in advance.

Re: emac 700Mhz Opinium

[ALLNIGHTVI]

I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that I am.  Modems are also great back up if  you 
lose your DSL/Cable/Satellite.  There are some very, very good modems  
still being made.  Just my two cents.  Peace, Virgil Fritz.

In  addition to everyone having a laptop we have a joint, family computer 
in the  kitchen, a G5.  One of it's uses is for sending faxes as it has both 
a  built in modem and an HP scanner / printer / copier attached.  Whenever  
we upgrade it to an intel I'll have to figure another solution.  Or stop  
faxing.

Re: Wondering about issues with this particular iMac

[ALLNIGHTVI]

Dear Penguirl:
 
They no longer "Burn" CDs or DVD's on computer  media for the home.  It 
the old days, the original "burners" actually  burned a small section of 
the CD/DVD and the mark was permanent.  Either  the section had a small hole 
burned in it or it didn't.  Newer CD/DVD  burners now make a mark in dye on 
the CD/DVD R, RW.  The dye deteriorates  after about three to five years so 
the CD/DVD then no longer has any information  on it, things have become 
unreadable.  If you can find an old burner, I  mean from the 1990's or before, 
or buy a commercial grade burner, then the  medium will actually be "burned" 
in actuality, and the image should be  permanent.  I have a couple of old 
burners and they actually do the job by  burning the image into the disk.  
Even so, you have to watch for spelling  and other mistakes that may creep in 
as the original gets older.  Magnetic  media is safer than newer CD/DVD media 
for securing the information you want to  keep.  Thumb Drives, also called 
Jump Drives and other magnetic media  really hold onto the information a lot 
more permanently than the new CD/DVD  technology.  The only other thing you 
can do to insure your  information is safely saved is to print it all up, 
and keep it in a fireproof  safe.  I would love to hear more on this subject, 
I want to hear about this  subject.  Thank you, sincerely, Virgil Fritz.

The  issue I have with digital files is that regardless of the media you 
store  them on, be it a HDD or flash drive, both of which are subject to 
magnetic  damage; or writable optical media, which seem to degrade simply 
by  existing; they are subject to deterioration over time. A bit gets 
flipped  here and there eventually resulting in discernible damage to the 
file.  Enough bits get flipped and the file becomes useless.

In nine years of  computing I've had several files, mostly text and image 
files, that have  mysteriously become unreadable. Given time it's likely 
that I will  encounter a video file that has become corrupt and is no 
longer usable. If  I originally purchased the data on a pressed, not 
burned, optical disk I  can make another copy. If I purchased the data as 
a download then I have  to hope that the vendor will let me re-download 
it. However I don't trust  the vendors to do what I consider to be the 
right thing and pass on a  perceived opportunity to make additional profit.

That is why I prefer  pressed CDs and DVDs. Yes they are subject to 
damage but they don't  spontaneously degrade, at least they shouldn't in 
my  lifetime.

Sorry Steve (Jobs), I think you are  wrong.

I have lost my password

[ALLNIGHTVI]

Dear iMac Group Members:

 I'm running an iMac Snow with a 600 MHz processor and 512 Mb RAM.   
I've changed my user password a few times, and I seem to have forgotten the 
last one.   I usually write them down somewhere, and I have the Master 
Password, but not the user password.   I can't update Stuff It or other 
programs 
without it.   I must have done something with it, it was an unusual password 
for me, it only has seven digits in it, but I can't find it and none of the 
old ones work.   How do I get around this issue?   I've been trying for days. 
  Thank you, sincerely, Virgil Fritz.   allnigh...@aol.com

Re: Refurbished Printers?

[ALLNIGHTVI]

I concur.  The price difference is so small between a used  (even 
refurbished) printer and a new printer that it doesn't make sense to buy  the 
used one.  
The new ones always come with ink, and if there is a problem  you can take it 
back.
