Re: better browser for OS9.2.2

[Cliff Rediger]

Funny. No one mentions Opera.
I wonder if Opera is defunct.
I've been using IE in 9.1 on a 3400
but on basis of this thread
have returned to iCab which I like much better
except for some of those weird pages.
Is there a fix for that?
For awhile Opera was the only browser with which
I could access my checking account.

Do you have the battery in at the right polarities? (+ & - are marked --
faintly, to be sure -- on the bottom of the holder.)

Bought a new pram battery for my G3/300 and set the time and date, and when
I turned the machine on this morn - had to reset the time again. What else
could be wrong??
- Confused!!

Back to basics.  Clean the contacts inside the battery holder.

Someone mentioned last week in this list that the power manager (board?) 
gets messed up by times and needs replacement. I think it was Bruce who 
suggested it. Alternatively, corrosion might be the culprit. I know on 
my 3400c that there was a fair bit of green gunk on the lead which I had 
to clean off.

Re: suggestions for zip drive on 3400c

[The Real Seed Catalogue]

what OS on your machine? IIRC 9.1 includes the zip driver but earlier doesn't.
I'm mailing you a copy.
Ben
I've just received another 3400c as a backup for my original one. It 
came with a VST zip drive, the one which slips into the 
cd/floppy/etc slot.
Neither computer will boot with the drive installed, regardless of 
whether it has a disk in it or not. Neither computer will recognize 
the drive either.
As soon as a disk is installed, the drive attempts to read it and 
seems to scan it for about a minute or so. Then everything stops in 
the drive and it's silent.

When the drive finishes trying to read the disk, the icons for the 
main hard drive, my shared folder and my flash card icon flash once 
as if something, probably the 3400c, is scanning each drive/folder 
one by one. I've downloaded a later driver from one of the mac 
sites, again to no avail.

Any thoughts? The drive has power and seems to be able to read the 
disk but the 3400 can't see it. These are IDE, not scsi right? Is 
there a particular VST driver needed?
(I've asked the former owner and the person says the zip was working 
on the day of shipping.)

Thanks.

Hi Martin,

You might also try the Opera browser. Opera 6 is the last version that 
works under OS8/9. I actually like iCab a little better than Opera, but 
Opera seems to be more stable on my machines and gives reasonable 
performance.

http://www.opera.com/download/index.dml?platform=mac&ver=6.03

For System 7, maybe you should give Apple's old Cyberdog a try. (Some 
days I feel like an old cyberdog, myself :-)

-Joe
