Re: WiFi dies under Classic

Re: Safari bookmarks, keychain, etc.

Laurent, Good point. Sure enough, when I create a new user, its version of Safari works as it should. So what does that tell me about how to get things working right for the original, troubled account? Thanks. CM > > If there is a problem with the other user, then there is a permission > prob

Re: Safari bookmarks, keychain, etc.

Thanks, Jan. I followed your advice, and Disk Utility did indeed find -- and repair -- some permissions problems with Safari files/paths. But even after subsequent multiple restarts, the symptoms remain unchanged. (In previous unsuccessful attempts to fix these glitches, for what it's worth, I've

Safari bookmarks, keychain, etc.

Safari runs fine when I log in as root user (under Panther) on my iBook SE. But when I log in as another user, Safari boots up with an error message about a "problem saving bookmarks," and, in fact, Safari under that log-in name does not accept, save or retain bookmarks, etc. Also, Safari consiste

Re: panther, safari, and my Ibook

Just a wild hunch, but it might be worth a try: I was surprised when upgrading to Panther that I wound up with two versions of Safari on my machine. Is it possible that (if you're launching from an old icon in the dock, for instance) you're still using the older version of Safari? Stay tuned for

iBook batteries, battery-cover screw

Need a new battery for my clamshell (Graphite/SE) iBook. Also need a replacement for one of the nickel-size screws that holds the battery cover in place. What do you all recommend for the best/cheapest places to get these things? Thanks. Charlie Meyerson -- G-Books is sponsored by <h

iBook or battery?

Still wrestling with a troublesome graphite iBook SE (graphite) and battery, OS X (the 10.2.8 rebuild) and/or System 9. Here's the problem: After charging the battery for about 10 minutes (adding about 1-3 percentage points of additional charge), the laptop's power-ring turns from orange to green

iBook peeling

The rubberlike coating on my Graphite iBook SE (clamshell style) has begun to peel away from the plastic shell. Just one spot (between the phone and the Ethernet jacks). My guess is a little dab o' glue will do the trick, but I wonder whether anyone has any experience -- and any recommendation of

iBook sudden shutdown

Forgive me if others have posed this question, but my clamshell iBook Graphite (SE) has taken to suddenly shutting down when it's on battery power -- without the standards warning about saving work, etc. Needless to say, this causes the loss of all unsaved work and forces a long reboot period. Ru

Re: airport alternatives for Wallstreet?

I briefly owned a Wallstreet (used, had other problems and I traded it in); used it with an Orinoco/Agere card and an AirPort; from all I've heard, you should have no trouble using it with other Wi-Fi transmitters, too. Good luck! CM > From: Kent Wieland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: <[EMAIL

Re: Upgrade

Except: OS 10.1(.x) remains (to my mind) a sluggish, incomplete and not-quite-ready-for-prime-time system, and those of us who adopted it early deserve *some* price break for suffering through its early inadequacies, I think. Certainly would be appropriate (and not just kindhearted) for Apple to

Anyone know if Kensington's Saddlebag will accommodate one of the original iBooks? (I have a graphite iBook, and it looks from the official specs as if it could be a tight fit.) Any other comments on the Saddlebag? Further, any recommendations for other (graphite-accommodating) carrying cases th

What a great and useful list this is. Who knows how and when I would have heard otherwise about this recall -- for which my G3 Series Wallstreet does qualify. Thanks to RyanLee for posting this. > http://www.safetyalerts.com/recall/p/013/01188.htm CM -- G-Books is sponsored by
