Re: Mac IIci & Internet?

Just a quick note to let people who are trying to help me with this Mac IIci Internet thig, that I am unsubscribing for the next two weeks due to having to be out of town on business. Thanks so much for the help so far, hope I can get it all figured out when I get back. Check out the apple orc

Re: Mac IIci & Internet?

I just tried to open Apple Talk to check which version of Open Transport, if any, my Mac IIci was running. There is not even an Apple Talk control Panel. Why would this be? I know the person who had this machine before me was on the internet because there are a few e-mails that she did not de

Re: SE-20

I am just a newbie at this as well, but I found that the apple-history website helped me a lot in finding out what my machines came with and what they can be upgraded to as far as RAM and Operating Systems Check out the apple orchard @ www.appleorchard.homestead.com -- Vintage Macs is sponsor

Mac IIci & Internet?

I have a Macintosh IIci that I would like to get onto the Internet. I have included basic specs for my machine and would like to know what I need or have to do to accomplish this. Machine: Mac IIci - 32Mb Ram doubled with Ram Doubler & Macintosh IIci Cache card SuperMac card

Re: copying programs

My problem, with most of these solutions, is that I don't have a Macintosh capable of accessing the Internet in order to download some of these programs that everyone is talking about. I think my best bet is to just go out and buy an 8 pin DIN cable and set up a computer to computer hook-up and

Re: copying programs

That's what I figured. The only printer I got with this bunch of "treasures" uses a cable with 9 pins on one end and about 15 or 19 on the other end. Guess I go cable hunting huh? Check out the apple orchard @ www.appleorchard.homestead.com -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by

Re: copying programs

The only cable I got with this computer is some strange thing that looks like it should be a 15 pin but there are only a few pins on each end. The pattern looks like the sketch below. ... .. .. . except the bottom pins are centered under the top row. Doesn't tell you much does it? Check ou

Re: copying programs

compressed segmented archive? You are a way over my head now. I like the idea of cable hook-up and using AppleTalk to share/copy the files. However, I am startiing to wonder if it is even possible to connect a Macintosh Classic with a Macintosh LC III for the purpose of sharing files. for on

Re: copying programs

I would use AppleTalk and a cable if I knew what I was doing,=:-) but I am just a newbie when it comes to Apple/Macintosh computers. As far as downloading Macintosh programs, I will have to wait until I get one of my other machines, (PM7200) upgraded and on the Internet. Check out the apple or

Re: copying programs

Yes, you would be correct to assume that it is too big for one floppy. However, I could get away with copying only the files that pertain to the particular screensaver that I want, if I knew how to do that. Check out the apple orchard @ www.appleorchard.homestead.com -- Vintage Macs is spons

copying programs

I have a really neat Star Trek program that is part of "After Dark" screensaver, and would like to copy it to another of my computers. Can someone tell me how to go about this? I have only one 3.5 floppy in each machine so CD is out of the question. Check out the apple orchard @ www.appleorcha

Re: Mac Classic?

I tried holding down those keys but the computer still loaded Menu Master Mac. On the desktop it showed a boot disk ghost and the drop down menu from SPECIAL showed Eject Boot Disk even though there was no boot disk in the computer. However, I restarted with a 7.0.1 disk tools floppy in the co

Re: Mac Classic?

I tried booting from a floppy and apparently this is some type of security program for a classroom that will not allow use of a floppy or an external drive of any kind. When it loads it asks for a password but if I just click on automatic log-on I can at least use the programs that it does allo

Mac Classic?

I just bought a Macintosh Classic and when it loads, it loads into a program called Menu Master Mac. I cannot access the system folder, the "about this macintosh", or anything else except this Menu Master Mac program. Does anyone know anything about this program, and if I can get around this p

Re: SERVICE MANUALS

That is only one person's "humble" opinion. I bought one of the aforementioned CD's and I received everything I was promised and more. I have used them several times already for complex questions I had, as well as simple little things that I did not know. These "manuals" are very useful to so

I just bought another Macintosh computer, minus the hard drive, and am wondering where the best deal can be found for a hard drive somewhere between 500Mb and 4 Gb for this machine. It takes the 50 pin SCSI hard drive. Check out the apple orchard @ www.appleorchard.homestead.com -- Vintage M

Re: MOMMMM!, pickle's bullying the newbies again!

I guess I am just as much to blame as anyone for asking stupid questions that seem to bother pickle so I am unsubscribing from this list so as not to cause any more aggravation. Too bad, I was picking up some really useful information along with a tidbit of junk. Check out the apple orchard @

acoustic coupler

Another no so trivia question. Did anyone recognize the acoustic coupler that Matthew Broderick was using in War Games? What make and model? I am trying to set up an exact duplicate of his set-up in my computer room and would like to find one if it is possible. Thanks for all the great help

Re: OS for Macintosh IIci

Please excuse my being so naive. I didn't even look inside because I was told the computer was working good. It is working good even though the previous owner took the hard drive OUT before he sold it. Next time I buy something I will know enough to ask before I pay. Sorry for bothering you

Re: OS for Macintosh IIci

I've done that but it doesn't recognize the hard drive at all. It tells me I can't put 7.0.1 on the installer disc but when I switch drives it does not give me an option of hard drive at all. Check out the apple orchard @ www.appleorchard.homestead.com -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by
