Re: Installation failure - Power Mac 7600/200

2002-12-16 Thread Bob Howells
HI Sue

1. You should check the fine print on that CD. You may find that it is
meant
only for certain types of Macs, and not a universal version .

2. I have found that sometimes the version of Hard Drive "Driver" seems
to affect something like this ! ?

Installation failure - Power Mac 7600/200

2002-12-16 Thread sooz
Greetings again Wamuggers

Following your assistance with fax software, the same friend has asked me if 
I could post another request on his behalf - so here it is:

I am trying to install System 7.6 onto my Power Mac 7600/200, from CD 
ROM. However, installation fails with an error message that System 
7.6 does not support this computer and that the disc should be 
updated. Currently I have System 7.5.5 installed and functioning 
correctly on this computer.

I also have a Power Mac 7200/90 on which System 7.6 has been 
installed from the same CD ROM as I am trying to install on the 
7600/200.

What is the solution?


Hope you can help again

It is possible that you or the recipient have ticked the box: "Don't
send/receive dangerous attachments", both .doc and .xls qualify"

Printing a PDF Document

2002-12-16 Thread chesnutt
Hello List,

I am running into difficulty printing a PDF document. The setup is a 
PM7300 running sys 9.1. I am printing to an HP Deskjet 840C. I am trying 
to print a shareware manual written in PDF format (URL Manager Pro if 
anybody is interested). 

Acrobat Reader (v5.00) launches and an info window pops up and indicates 
that the job is being spooled to disk. About 18 pages spool, then a 
dialog box pops up and says that there is not enough free disk space to 
complete the job. When this first happened, I had about 100 megs of free 
space. I have since freed up about another 500 megs. Call me a doubter 
if you will, but I just can't believe that a document which occupies 480 
k on the disk requires in excess of 600 megs to print. 

Anybody have any idea what gives?

Problems sending Outlook Express to Exchange 5.5 (Mac to Windows)

2002-12-16 Thread Steven

Hoping someone can shed some light on what's going on when I send
attachments from my home based iMac (using Outlook Express 5.02) to fellow
employees on the corporate network. The corporate network uses Outlook
Exchange Server 5.5.

I've tried various methods of sending the attachments - all at once and
individually. I've also tried different attachments, eg. doc, xls, and tif
files. Sending the xls file separately is the only one that seemed to work,
but, if you read on, I think that has more to do with the particular content
rather than the fact that it's an xls file. I might be wrong there though.

I also tried sending the same multiple attachments after changing the
default 'AppleDouble' encoding in Outlook Express to 'Windows
(MIME/Base64)', but that didn't seem to make any difference.

Another clue. I converted the Word (doc) file to an rtf, and that worked
okay.

At the other end, the body of the email received reads...

---
The Microsoft Exchange Server received an Internet message that could not be
processed. To view the original message content, open the attached message.
---

The attachments that have been sent as various documents from my end have
been converted and received at the other end as a message.txt attachment,
which when opened appears to have the text of my original documents but in
an ASCII form, all formatting lost, and all lumped into one file.

I came across the following article at


-
PRB: Exchange Server 5.5 Rejects POP3 Messages in Base64

The information in this article applies to:

€ Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
€ Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
€ Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5

This article was previously published under Q270614

SYMPTOMS
If you submit a message that has a Base64 body part to Exchange versions 5.5
and earlier by using Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3), and the body part
contains extraneous characters after the termination sequence, you may
receive the following error message even if the extraneous characters are
otherwise valid: 

The Microsoft Exchange Server received an Internet message that could not be
processed. To view the original message content, open the attached message.
<> 

CAUSE
Exchange only accepts Base64 encodings that are multiples of 4 in size. The
extraneous characters cause the encoding size to not be a multiple of 4, so
Exchange rejects the encoding.

RESOLUTION
Do not append extra characters to the end of a Base64 sequence that is
submitted to Exchange.

STATUS
This behavior is by design.
-

Is there something simple that I can do at my end, or my employer can do at
their end, that avoids this problem?

I'd be most grateful for any tips.

Regards...Steven

Re: Freeware Version - VirtualPC [Scanned]

2002-12-16 Thread Shay Telfer

Hi all WAMUG users.

I'm looking for an emulator for both PC and Macintosh that will allow me
to have multiple virtual OS's on my computer...

I've seen Virtual PC for Mac/PC (http://www.connectix.com/) and have
found this appropriate to my needs. However I'm left wondering: Is there
a freeware or demo available that could be better?


Well, there's Bochs



Or Blue Label Power Emulator



Cheaper? Well, their price is less than Virtual PC's.

Better? I think that Virtual PC is most likely the best option 
despite its cost. Depending on what you want to do, of course.


Have fun,

Re: ColorStylewriter 1500

2002-12-16 Thread tuchwood

The Color Stylewriter uses separate Black and Colour Cartridges

For black it's the Canon BJ Cartridge BC-01 or BC-02 (Not sure what the 
difference
is between these two...I think ink drying speed?..the BC-02 seems most 
common)

Price..just under $50

A Black Canon BC-03 will NOT fit 

For colour you need the Canon Colour BJ Cartridge BC-05..price from 
memory around $64
