Re: G3 powerbook HD

Frank, The Powerbook has a Toshiba Ultra ATA33 HD in it I think. 10GB is OK for what I am going to load it up with. If you are happy about me giving it a try, I would return it if it is not compatible. Please advise me offline. regards Kevin 94183869 Hi Kevin Not much larger.

Neil (and Peter), I tried Peter's suggestion and made a new account. All is well in the new account, but my old one is behaving for the time being, so we'll have to wait and see. Hopefully I won't have to get a new video card as per Neil's revelations, but that might be the next step. Further i

Hi Andrew, I started to get very strange artefacts and redrawing issues on my iMac (intel 24" late 2007)- but it was erratic - sometimes OK sometimes not - but it got worse until I finally decided to rule out any software issues. So - a complete disc erase/reformat and fresh install from the ori

Hi Kevin Not much larger. I have a 10GB sitting in my drawer. Out of a titanium (I think) it is an IBM Travelstar IDE 4200rpm. Free if any use. Let me know. I am at Murdoch Uni. Cheers Frank On 15/11/09 10:24 AM, "KEVIN Lock" wrote: > > One of the G3 powerbooks I have been donated needs a

Re: Converting Pages to Word (was Re: Creating high resolution PDF)

Hi Reg, Are you saying Word can't open the Pages document? Word should be able to 'Open' the document. Sometimes you don't get an exact Word copy as the Pages file, only close, but close is a hundred times better than trying to get Word to behave while doing picture formatting and embedding.

Did you repair permissions as well Andrew? What caused the problems was corrupted preference files. By trashing the pref files & restarting you computer new preference files were created. Sent from Ronni's iPhone On 15/11/2009, at 6:34 PM, Andrew Schox wrote: Thanx Ronni, That seems t
