Re: 128k Mac

I've got a DVD of pretty much all Macintosh repair manuals. If you need one, just holler back. Here is a link to an exploded view of the 128K I took off the manual, in PDF form...BTW, it the section I got this off of also covers the 512K, but it's the same thing: http://s202.photobucket.com/al

This ability exists in BBedit as well, at least by version 7. I should think it dates back a ways. On Feb 15, 11:17 am, "SteveCraft" wrote: > Hey all. I am interested in using BBEdit (or an equivalent app) with a macro > to prepend sequential numbers to lines of text. > > Why? > > I am writing s

Mac Classic and Jasmine Drive

Hi, I'm a lurker on the list but wonder if I could ask a question about my beloved Mac Classic. I've done every workaround I can think of to no avail.My goal is to get my Mac up  so I can read old backup disks OR the Jasmine external 40 GB hard drive that was connected in the days of yore when

Re: unreadable cd-roms made in OS X

Two things that I can think of. First off, your CD rom in the 7500 might be so old it doesn't like DVD-Rs. I have seen this in some CD drives in some old powermacs. 2nd, what format did you make the CD? Did you make it in ISO 9660 or Mac format? Try one of each and see if one will be read.

Re: unreadable cd-roms made in OS X

i dont know much about the old PPC macs... but... i suspect the CD drive in the 7500 is having trouble reading the CD-Rs you burnt in the G4... also applies to older PCs, especially pre-pentium laptops... On Sun, Feb 15, 2009 at 10:05 PM, Alex Rubli wrote: > > Hello > > hope this is the right

IIci and 7200/75

I have two vintage macs that I'm willing to give away. Both were fuly operational systems when I retired them many years ago. This includes an apple 13in rgb monitor and a Sony 100sf 15in monitor. Other components and software, too. Please let me know your interest. I live in Carlsbad, CA. -

Re: Mac Classic and Jasmine Drive

Given that you have a classic, you can try the unique trick of holding down CMD-OPT-X-O at startup to boot off ROM. Unfortunately, one of the reasons an old startup disk can't be found is that its died. Hopefully its something more mundane, like a bad SCSI ID (don't use 0 or 7 as a rule of thumb).

Hi Rick, I will be in Carlsbad tomorrow. If these are still available I would love to take them off of your hands. Thanks, Jason King On Feb 16, 2009, at 10:49 AM, Rick wrote: > > I have two vintage macs that I'm willing to give away. Both were fuly > operational systems when I retired them

Re: Mac Classic and Jasmine Drive

Lily, I have a 80 MB Jasmine external HD which I haven't used in a long time. As I recall, to use it you have to have some driver software on your internal HD else the computer will not find or recognize the external Jasmine drive. I do have that driver software on my IIsi which I use frequently

Hello fellow Vintage Macs users. I have a Newton MessagePad 120 that I would like to upgrade to Newton OS 2.0. It is currently running OS 1.3. Where can I find such software to do that, and how do I go about installing it? Thanks in advance for your advice. - Noah --~--~-~--~~
