    G4 Jaguar to G5 Panther

    Because partitioning is an option I prefer. Info here. I didn't come to debate the merits of partitioning. Partitioning isn't a sin. It is simply a method of organizing the files. It works for some, but not for others.

    G4 Jaguar to G5 Panther

    I did not know this! Thank you for that info. Very useful. :) I'll do as you suggested regarding the partitioning, etc. Any recommendation on the partition size for Panther? I've read about 10GB is good. Disk space isn't an issue so if more is preferred, I could do that. Also, any...

    G4 Jaguar to G5 Panther

    Physically moving the files isn't a problem. I can do that a number of ways. The question is more of which way to approach the move because of the different OS's and the different HD partition structures. Since I know of no way to partition a HD without destroying the data on it, there's...

    G4 Jaguar to G5 Panther

    I just got a new G5, and I'm trying to figure out what is the best way to transfer everything from my G4 to the new G5. The G4 is running 10.2.6 Jag with everything organized in its own partition (OS X, OS 9, Apps, and Home). The G5 came with 10.3.3 Panther and has everything dumped in one...

    Need SCSI card for HD

    Thanks for the recommendation! I just placed my order for the Adaptec PowerDomain 29160. I just happened to call Adaptec 12 minutes before their $100 rebate offer expired so this ended up being a very timely thread for me. :)

    Need SCSI card for HD

    Well, that idea just went *poof*! :( http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60190 My G3 is indeed the Macintosh Server G3, built in Jan 1998. While the discussion only mentions using the card in a B&W G3 running OS X Server, I very highly suspect I'd experience the very same...

    Need SCSI card for HD

    I received a reply on the Apple board suggesting that I try the scsi card in my G3. That's what I used to use for that hard drive so I figure it's worth a shot! It's already configured at Bus 0. It's an old Atto card that Apple shipped in my G3 when I first bought it. I don't put my...

    Need SCSI card for HD

    I need to get a SCSI card to run my old hard drive. I'm pulling this drive out of my old G3, and want to put it in my new G4. The drive is a Seagate ST-173404LW Ultra160 SCSI Wide (Cheetah 73, LVD). Any suggestions on what SCSI card I should get? Thanks! :)

    some system problems...

    6. Try using DragThing. One of the preference options is Bring all windows to the front when switching which sounds like the exact feature you're wanting. If you enable this feature, it works no matter how you switch from app to app.

    "Open with Application" problem

    I changed the get info on an .asp file (and selected change all), and everything worked just fine. Someone on another board said his .asp files were also opening with BBEdit, and he had not changed the .html files to BBEdit like I had. Since the "change all" is supposed to make the changes...

    "Open with Application" problem

    Okay, I did it. I admit it. So can someone tell me how to undo it? :o I selected a file, hit Get Info, found my way to the Open with Appication tab, and upon making my selection, I click on the Change All button. Now when I click to view a movie that normally should open up my RealOne...
