Re: hidden files ?

Here's an example- the ipod. Every mp3 is stored on the ipod in a hidden, or 'invisible' folder named ipod_control (or controller, i cant remember) and then in a folder named music, then in a series of folders starting with F0#. In mac os 6 through 9.2.2, get yourself a copy of resedit2.1.3.

Lombard Options?

Hey all. I have a 333 Bronze (lombard), with 320 ram. What are my options, if any, to upgrade it to a faster processor? Keeping in mind that 333 is plenty fast and i don't really *need* an upgrade...so its price would really determine whether or not I purchase anything. Thanks guys! -Dylan

ARGH! Please help me.... sob sob

Hey there, I think its fair to say that I went into this process of installing mac os X, which I've had nothing but problems with in the past, in a positive mind set. But after installing it on my laptop, I have officially lost faith in Apple's ability to make a functional operating

I need massive amounts of information

Hey there, As most of you know, I'm that guy who still claims apple had it right in OS 7.6... Having said that, I might be ready to take the plunge into mac OS X! A little history: When i bought my quicksilver last summer, it had 10 on it... but it never started up right and eventually

For all of you who didn't know- Battery reconditioning/restting

Hey guys, anyone with a reduced battery and doesn't know about resetting it might want to read this. Well, i was faced with a 7-12 minute battery for my 333 bronze and two 70 minute lectures to take notes... and the decision of buying a new M7318 for 127$. So as a last ditch attempt to save

Thanks+A sleeping issue

Thank you for helping me out with the screen problem. Now the only issue my bronze has is a sleeping issue. Unlike the insomnia that I hear some other laptops have, mine is a sound sleeper- it wont wake up without a restart! When I close the lid or choose 'sleep', it goes to sleep just

Re: Thanks+A sleeping issue

Yeah, I dont have the origional memory, I bought this from a dood in nebraska. He didn't tell me about the sleeping issue until afterwards- so I didn't know. I'll try resetting the PRAM- can I just apple-option-p-r at startup? Thanks, ttyl -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/

lombard battery

Hey, i'm buying a powerbook g3 lombard, which is the reason that I originally joined this list, and it turns out that the battery might not work too well. This is the situation: He hasn't used it too much, and just kept it stored for over a year. I assume that it wasn't fully charged.

OOf

Hey guys. I just decided to check my mailbox and I have over thirty messages. I was good though, I read all of them before answering. And cause I'm new to the list, I had to ask something... DO YOU ALWAYS TAKE THIRTY POSTS ABOUT SOME ISSUE BEFORE ENOUGH PEOPLE TELL YOU TO STOP, BEFORE YOU

Re: Today on station K-MAC...iTunes, nuthin' but iTunes...

I bet microsoft is behind it! (After all, it has made some deal with the devil- hence it is the only one unaffected.) That's really weird I'll ask around to see if that's even technically possible. In the least, its a great prank if one could harness it. Yeah, I don't really have anything

Re: lombard hinges dying?

I'm sorry, but after reading david's e-mail, I just couldn't stop cracking up! I'm sure this will start a flame war about somebody's Mac512k that is not obsolete, but those of us in the real world need to have machines which will run modern software at modern speeds. The rest of Mayberry may
