I have a Powerbook 190, 24MB RAM, 500MB HD it has: Finder 7.5.6 System 7.6.1 and a 33MHz processor I'm new to it, my last Mac was a MacPlus. I see the Powerbook has Netscape Communicator installed, I'll soon get the right cable to plug it into my modem. I'm presently using a Wintel machine that I have never liked.

One Line on 540c Screen
I have a similar problem with my 540c. About one inch from the bottom of the screen, there is a line, which makes it difficult to read text when the line crosses through the words. Should I try removing the screen and then reinstalling the screen? And exactly how would I go about doing that? What about replacing the screen? Thanks. -- vjamacaddict http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/VernAndrews/ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Occasionally my 520 has vertical lines over the bottom half of the screen. If I squeeze the lefthand side of the lid it goes away. Is there any way to fix this? Separate the front from the rear, carefully reinstall, and carefull torque the attaching screws.

Dan writes, You can find the 7.5.3 full install floppies and 7.5.5 upgrade floppies both for free from Apple's own website. Okay, cool, now that you mention the free 7.5.3 and 7.5.5 upgrades, here's something I've been meaning to post to the list for the last couple of days. Vital stats: PowerBook 190 OS 7.5.2 8 MB RAM. I already have the aforementioned free downloads. I want to take my PB to 7.5.5 so I can do a printer port network with my 7200 (a slow means of backing up the PB so I've heard on here, but it'll do for me), and I know that I have to do this upgrade in a 2-step process: go to 7.5.3 first, and then bring it up to 7.5.5. I downloaded the upgrades on my 7200 and used the Disk Copy utility to make the two floppies of 7.5.3. The utility told me that the Make Floppy operation was successful on both of them. The problem: The PB reads the disks perfectly well, but 7.5.3 will not install. It says that my system can not be upgraded, even though I was sure to specify that I wanted the installation to go on the HD. When it first pops up after clicking agree on the software agreement, it shows the 7.5.3 floppy and I have to switch disk to tell the computer I want to do the upgrade on the HD. Yet in the About 7.5.3 Rev 2 document, it says that the upgrade is for, among other Macs, PBs with OS 7.5.2 and Enabler 1.2 or higher (my Enabler is 1.2.4 so I think that qualifies). And, yes, I also followed the About document's instructions of going into the Extensions Manager and making sure it was set to 7.5.2 before I attempted the upgrade. Any ideas?

I've never seen or heard of PhoneNet connectors, unless you mean telephone wire of the sort you use on a modem or telephone. I guess this means another Google, huh? Buzzwords 101 Localtalk is a 230Kb/s physical network that runs from old Mac to Mac via the serial jacks cables. It's really RS-485, or close to it. Localtalk *carries* Appletalk (and ?Appleprint/Appleshare?) _applications_ . Later, Ethernet became the far superiour transport alternative to Localtalk, still carrying Apple[talk/print/share] but often called Ethertalk. Even later, Apple moved from Appletalk to err... Appletalk functionality over TCP/IP. Looks the same on the surface, but within... Usually there's a Control Panel to select which port, the serial one or Ethernet or sometimes IR. PhoneNet was a Fallon scheme that substituted modular phone cables and adapters for the pricey Localtalk cables. It's STILL Localtalk.

Re: newbie
Of course you can do it on every mac ever made that has the serial ports (I think). Certainly for a more modern mac like the 190. Since you already said you don't have text-to speech, and now you also cant get this working, I suspect you have a rather incomplete installation of the OS.

Re: PB5300cs Not reading burnt discs
You're most likely burning in incompatible file systems. If you're running OS 8.0 or anything lower, it won't be able to read HFS+ disks. Also probably wont read Windows cds, whatever that format is called (I have no idea nor do I care to).

FYI for networking, I tried the PB5300's infra-red option today with another 5300. With the two machine's IR ports literally 2 inches apart from each other, it too literally 3 hours to transfer a 150 meg folder.

Re: newbie
I have a Powerbook 190, 24MB RAM, 500MB HD I'd like to know where I can find voice recognition and text-to speach software for the Powerbook. If you have special interest in voice recognition, you may wish to join the MacVoice E-mail Discussion List as follows: http://www.themacintoshguy.com/lists/MacVoiceFAQ.html The two major programs for Macintosh, IBM ViaVoice and MacSpeech iListen, may not work well, if at all, on a PowerBook 190 because of its limited capabilities. Not only do those programs require PowerPCs, they require pretty beefy ones at that. G3s or better are really best. PlainTalk is Apple's version of speech recognition as it pertains to controlling your Mac with your voice. It won't translate your speech into a Word document like ViaVoice, but it will allow you to open programs, empty the trash, and do anything you can write an AppleScript to do (which is really pretty close to just about anything you could want to do on a Mac - except dictating a novel into MS Word, of course). I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure PlainTalk requires either an AV Quadra (660AV or 840AV) or a PowerPC based Mac. In either case, the 190 is pretty underpowered for the speech-related capabilities of the Mac OS. Text-to-Speech should work fine, though. And if you are adventurous, there are even Spanish language versions! Not sure about the other European languages...

What she did not only sounds a lot easier, but is also closer to what I want to do (network a 190 to a bigger PM, rather than networking two PBs), and it worked for her with no problem. ~Yersinia. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

speech recognition/ ram for powerbook 190
Subject: RAM for 190/cs can 5300 RAM work in a 190/190cs? I have found that 5300 ram does often work in a 190, although it may still be labelled for a 5300. The reverse is also often true. However, there are occasions when specific brands of ram have not been transferable. Therefore, it is always best if you can try the ram in the powerbook to be sure. -- Subject: Powerbook 190 voice recognition software The voice recognition question has been mentioned, but the text-to speech software for the Powerbook is found on the system software install floppies or CD as a choice when you customise installation. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: PB5300cs Not reading burnt discs
Thanks for Ya'lls help!! I found out the problem was that that brand of cd (imation) wouldnt work with it. I tried memorex and it worked just fine. Thanx!!! ~ Ben ~ - Original Message - From: Andrew Kershaw [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PowerBooks [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 23, 2004 8:50 PM Subject: Re: PB5300cs Not reading burnt discs If it won't read ANY burned disc, it's probably a problem with the CD drive you are using and not the CD-R/RWs. My beige G3's CD-ROM drive stopped reading CD-Rs a long time ago. That's why I took it out... ;-) Dan's right about HFS+ requiring OS 8.1 or better. CDs destined for Windows users are often in ISO 9660 format or some variant thereof. The Mac OS (at least since 7.5.5) has drivers to read disks in the ISO format (the Foreign File Access set of extensions including High Sierra, ISO 9660, Photo CDs, and others), so that's probably NOT your problem. Give us more info to help you out. What does the 5300 say when a disc is inserted? Are you using SCSI termination? Does the drive recognized stamped (manufactured) CDs as opposed to burned CDs? Etc.

Re: emagic Logic
On 4/23/04 1:40 PM, Dan Palka of [EMAIL PROTECTED] sent Why don't they, then, repackage it in a consistant, matching box with the rest of them. Of that I am not sure of. Perhaps an agreement with eMagic upon acquisition. Recognition retention, that sort of thing. Still sounds great. Best regards, Dana The white box with the small graphic, Logic titles, and gray Apple logo. on 4/22/04 11:31 PM, Dana Collins at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Not odd at all, Dan. Apple bought out eMagic a while ago (about the same time the 2nd batch of G4s were coming out), including their flagship audio application Logic Audio. It is a professional-level digital audio/MIDI sequencing application in the league of Steinberg's Q-Basis and MOTU's Dig. Performer (ProTools is still a cut above for audio recording, but comparably weak in the MIDI area when compared with these three). Emagic always supported the Mac, though when Apple acquired the company they announced (surprise, surprise) phasing out Windows support. Some swear by it (Logic) for its integrity - it is a fine application (though I prefer MOTU), and yes, it is an Apple product.
