UPDATE: Apparently there is no "problem". The import takes *20 minutes* on my PowerBook G4, and I don't even have a heavily scheduled calendar!!! I can only imagine how long this would take on an older G3 machine. Regardless, it is poor design for Apple to not include some sort of progress...

Am I the only one to have the bad fortune of a consistent hang whenever I try to import my calendar data from Entourage? iCal simply hangs with the File menu highlighted, requiring a force quit.

keyizm, i think i figured out the configuration problem that was causing the connection problems with static IPs and MAC address filtering. in the router console, i had entered two MAC addresses for one computer: one for the airport card and one for ethernet, figuring if i ever need to...

well it seems to be a fluke with the router...switching to DHCP worked! MAC address control now works. strange...

thanks for the advice. i realized after posting my problem that swapping the cards would be the relevant experiment. i don't really look forward to unscrewing the base of my new powerbook again, but it's easy enough i guess. i'll first try configuring the router to serve DHCP with MAC address...

I'm running a wireless home network with a D-link 713P wireless router, a PowerBook 667, and an iBook 366 (both running 10.2). I live in a densely populated area, so I want to have MAC address control enabled, basically to restrict access to the router to only these two computers, or whatever...

First off, I know nothing about Unix. That said... After backing up an OS X partition with Retrospect 4.5 (running off of an OS 9.2 Bootable Zip Disk), reformatting the drive with new partitions, and lastly restoring OS X to the new partition, OS X no longer boots. Shortly after the Mac...

i've got a lombard 333, and a borrowed VST superdisk drive i used once worked fine, just popped it in, inserted a floppy, and it mounted. no drivers needed. so if BOTH, your vst superdisk module AND our CD module are dead, i'd say the evidence points to the bay, and not the module. i'm not...

is there any way to import OS 9 keychains into OS X? i have a lot of OS 9 keychains and the OS X keychain app doesn't seem to recognize them as valid keychains. so much for "seamless" integration with OS 9, eh??
