    Airport ability to connect suddenly diminished

    I've done the firmware....I assume if I do a hard reset I'll have to update the firmware again? Opening up the MACs isn't necessary. Both work fine as long as they are within 20 feet of the airport express. I guess a loose WLAN card could make it not work at all, but would that make it...

    Airport ability to connect suddenly diminished

    This is a little long, but I wanted to give you the whole "backstory." This is very weird. I noticed that my Quicksilver 2002 G4 was getting sluggish on line. It's in one part of the house. I played with the airport config, changed channels, all the stuff you can do. Sometimes, it would get...

    Safari Slowdowns: How To Stop Them?

    Did you ever get an answer to this question? I just spent an hour with the airport. Changed the "Density" changed the "Channel" and chose "Robustness" even though I get the warning....this may be worse, okay? It actually seemed to help for the first five pages or so.....I'm wondering if this is...

    Erasing Safari drop down web history

    Thanks, El. You are absolutely correct. I never realized there was so much in the bookmarks i.e. Software developers, old things I'd saved for just a quick reference, etc. Now I know. When you delete "history," it gets rid of the latest, but the others are still there if they are saved in...

    Erasing Safari drop down web history

    You mean all those that show up in the drop down are actually BOOKMARKED? C'mon. Really? WOW. I had no idea. Seriously, though. I swear there are things in the drop down that aren't bookmarked. I'll have to delete a couple and check a few as a test. Is there a way to find out where something is...

    Browsers take forever to load pages.

    I have this problem frequently....I have an old airport (the original) as I have a G4 that won't allow me to upgrade (ancient, built in 2002!) so I'm stuck for the moment (I ain't buyin' a new system for the time being). So, how do I do what you suggest in order to get the browser to load the...

    Erasing Safari drop down web history

    I know how to eliminate the history searches. Any way to get rid of all the saved web addresses that are in the drop down address line in Safari? You know, when you type www dot....and every place you have ever searched in your life shows up in a drop down menu? Where is this information hidden...

    Moving softward from one internal to another

    Yes, it found the photos. The problem is the default on where the photos are being saved. Since they are currently on the wrong hard drive....I want to move them to the second hard drive which will probably be easy enough. But, the program still defaults to the 1st hard drive to "save" the...

    Moving softward from one internal to another

    Here's the problem: I loaded Nikon's PictureProject software on Internal Drive #1 which is about 50% full (at 60g). I have a perfectly good 80g harddrive that is practically empty on the same computer. The program 'found' all the jpegs on computer #1 and categorized them nice and neatly. But...

    How to decide on DVD burner? 1, 2, 3 or it depends

    I haven't a clue what you are trying to say. The spelling and syntax is so terrible that it is impossible to decipher. Thanks for the attempt to answer, though.

    How to decide on DVD burner? 1, 2, 3 or it depends

    Okay, I've checked out the LaCie d2 and the Sony 810/UL. I've seen some other burners on the shopping dot net dot coms. As an external drive, does anyone have any advice as to which burner to get? I have to dub some old VCR tapes to DVD. I purchased my G4 in 2002 and have only been...

    Can't awake from sleep

    Seems like the USB hub has certainly added to the troubles. I will try connecting the scanner directly to the G4 (and for some reason it has to go into the original 1.0 not the 2.0) and I'll try just leaving the printer and the Palm on the hub. I've found that if I remember to shut down the...

    Can't awake from sleep

    Recently, I've been experiencing this strange phenomena. The computer goes to sleep (or, more precisely, it gets to the point where the monitor is black), but the computer doesn't shut down. And I can't wake it up. I have to hold my button (G4) until it shuts down. It boots right back up. Any...

    iTUNES naming tracks issue

    Thank you. Seems the only answer is to print out the little booklet that has the track names and print out the artwork and say "here, follow along while you listen." :-)

    iTUNES naming tracks issue

    Sorry for being an idiot here, but I assumed the CD-R that I was purchasing was for 'either' data or audio. So, what would I look for if I wanted to burn audio onto a data CD? Or mp3 disc? Also, will mp3 discs play in anything: car? CD player? Computer? Disc player under the tv set? I thought...
