I have a G5 20
I have a G5 20 - just recovered from bad caps, now need to use it as a printer driver. Running 10.5.8, but would not connect to WIFI - would see wifi, but refused to connect. Tried to update system (installing 10.5.6 by archive install) but on restart there is no archive. Startup disk only shows new system! Anyone know how to go back? (Esp as still cannot connect to WiFi! ;-( TIA, Stuart. -- -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

If the Wifi shows up in the list of available networks, delete your network preferences /Library/Preferences/SYstem Preferences (IIRC, I don't have a 10.5 system in front of me.) and try again. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
