D-Link 810+ with Airport Base Station
I just received a D-Link 810+ ethernet wireless adapter. I want to allow a PowerBook G3 (Lombard) that only has an ethernet connector to connect to my wireless network and surf the web. Unfortunately, the only way this device allows my computer to surf the web is if I turn off Access Control on the base station (allowing anyone to connect to my airport network) and if I disable WEP. If any device is listed under Access Control then the D-link doesn't surf. Even if the device listed is the D-link.

Re: VCDs on 3400
Can I create VCD backups of my DVDs? Can I make VCDs from any QuickTime movie file? To make VCD backups of DVD's try and OS X software called Forty-two, http://mail.e3ware.com/cboo/kaisakura/fortytwo.html. According to their website, forty-two v1.6 is the easiest way to convert a DVD into either an AVI movie , a folder of ready to burn bin/cues for VCDs and SVCDs or a ready to burn .iso DVD disk image on Mac OS X.. It is designed to be simple to use, easy to learn and give quality, in sync results. Too bad you don't live in Miami. Our user group is presenting a seminar (free to members) on how to create VCD's with menus and chapter breaks on Wednesday. We'll cover Super VCD's as well. For other software go to http://www.versiontracker.com and search for VCD. -- Esver Camacho Gold Coast Macintosh Users Group http://www.gcmac.org -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

iMovie 3 on PowerBook G4
I'm disappointed that the new iMovie 3.0.1 suddenly made my PowerBook G4 (800 Mhz) feel old. I normally zip through iMovie 2 but this latest version turned my PowerBook into a dinosaur. Not only that but iMovie 3 appears to require rendering of photos through the Ken Burns effect even for simple placement on the timeline. In iMovie 2 you just placed the photos without wasting time rendering, making the laying out and transitioning of photos faster. You also were able to adjust the time on screen of the photo clip by entering seconds:frames. This is crucial for timing the appearance of photos with a music track or a voice-over. The current method of setting the time, rendering, resetting the time and re-rendering it too cumbersome. I hope they come out with a faster revision and fix that photo placement method. I think I'll stick with iMovie 2 for awhile. -- Esver Camacho mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gold Coast Macintosh Users Group http://www.gcmac.org -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: power book power supplys
would a power brick/chord from a powerbook 1400cs work wwith a powerbook 160??? The A/C adapter used with the 1400cs is model number M4895, M4896 or M4402. This adapter is shared by the PowerBook 3400, PowerBook G3 (original) and the PowerBook G3 Series (including Lombard and Pismo). The PowerBook 160 uses Model number M5651, M5652 or M4662. According to the Apple Knowledgebase document #16168, you can share this with PowerBook 140, 145, 145b, 160, 165, 170, and 180 computers. Basically, no. For more details regarding which adapter is compatible with which computer, look at the article at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=16168 -- Esver Camacho mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gold Coast Macintosh Users Group http://www.gcmac.org -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I'm not familiar with vnc but I do know of a program called Timbuktu http://www.timbuktupro.com distributed by Netopia. You'd have to look at older versions to run on older Macs but it does fill the bill as you requested. It's easy to set up and runs well even on older Macs.

Bad PowerBook sound board
I just found that my PowerBook G3 (Lombard)'s sound board fried! No sound from speakers, no sound from sound port in the back, no sound when resetting PRAM. Anyway, I'm considering two options - the cost of fixing (one quote is $200 for the part and $90 for labor) or the cost of buying another PowerBook (floor models and used models TOTALLY acceptable). I don't know about the new iBooks yet as I've had limited exposure to them and I know I don't want the TiBook because of its delicate nature. I just upgraded my current PowerBook with a 40 Gb hard drive, a PC slot Airport card (Orinoco Gold) and it has 320 Mb RAM. It's running quite well at 400 Mhz (Mac OS X 10.1.5) so the lack of sound is the only problem. I really don't want to spend over $1400 for a replacement if I don't have to.

CoStar Stingray Trackball
I recently acquired a Costar Stingray Trackball 2.0 for my PowerBook 1400. This is an ADB trackball with two very large buttons on either side. Does anyone know where I can get the Control Panel software that it originally came with? I'd like to program the second button to do a control click. Right now the only option is a switch under the trackball that allows Click-locking either the left or right button.
