    Newest known Tiger build: Mac OS X 10.4.3 8F8

    That's probably it then... I was using FireFox. I'll try Safari this weekend and see what happens. Thanks!

    Fitting a new hardrive in a G4 1.42

    If I remember properly, it should have a single screw at the top that holds the frame in place. Once it's removed, pull the small lever on the left side of the cage forward, and you should be able to slide the frame up slightly and pull it straight out.

    Newest known Tiger build: Mac OS X 10.4.3 8F8

    Ok... I feel dumb, but I have not been able to get the Tiger .dmg to burn properly on my 15" Powerbook (1.25, SuperDrive, 512MB RAM, 80GB HD). I have a valid ADC account, and the download appears to work properly, but when the file is finished downloading, there are no mountable volumes on the...

    Airport Clients missing AppleTalk Zone

    You would either have to create an AppleTalk zone for your 10.x.x.x subnet at the router, or you would need to set your ABSes to NOT distribute addresses at all. Let them serve as a hub, and your DHCP server will distribute addresses. Then you should be able to see all AppleTalk services.

    AlBook keeps on locking up...

    The 12" powerbooks don't have a PRAM battery. The clock holds a charge from the main battery. If you are getting the date/time error every time you boot your computer, then your battery may need to be replaced, or your AC adapter isn't charging properly. There are several things to try... 1...

    Would you recommend a PowerBook G3 Pismo?

    Check out refurbished units. You can save a couple hundred bucks and it still carries the full factory warranty. Smalldog.com has a bunch of refurbished iBooks for sale. Example, they have a 700Mhz/256MB/20GB/Combo/Airport unit for about $689.

    Graphite airport station. Dead?

    You could try a hard reset of the base station... Caution: you might need three hands for this one. Shut down the base station and unplug it. Get a paper clip, straighten it, and stick the end in the small reset hole on the bottom of the Airport. You should feel it depress a small button...

    Large disk access with OS9??

    MDD is Mirrored Drive Door, released last year. Apart from using an ATA-6 compliant firewire enclosure, the only way I know of to support a drive larger than 137GB is by adding an ATA-6 (also called ATA-133) PCI card and running the drives off it. You could also get Serial ATA (SATA) drives and...

    problems with Windows 2003 and MacOSX10.3

    Just out of curiosity, if your OS 9.x computers are able to connect properly, why are you connecting your OS X computers using SMB? Why not use afp://servername.domain.com. I can't tell your right off why the OS X computers would have a slow SMB connection to the Win2k3 server, but if you...

    ethernet fails to connect

    If you are not powering off the cable modem between switching between the router and the desktop computer, that might be a problem. Typically cable modems will bind themselves to the MAC address of the first device plugged in after they have been turned on. After that, if you plug anything else...
