I am looking to network my Mac IIci (OS 7.5.5) to my iMac G4 (800 mhz, OS 9, or OS 10). I have an ethernet network and have succeeded in getting an IP address dynamically assigned by the router on the Mac IIci (open transport 1.1). Unfortunately, that is as far as I get. I cannot see it from...

Ok - Changed the battery, that fixed the settings problem. Got a new keyboard and zapped the PRAM, it worked properly, but didn't fix the sound. I have another speaker coming, but I am not very optimistic. Turns out it had a bad floppy drive too, but found a new one on e-bay. Next step -...

I wish I had thought of Radio Shack, already orderd the Battery from OWC. I can live with the non-retained settings for now, just wish I could get the "Dong" going.

No - I am going to have to buy one, this one seems pretty bad off, came with the IIci I just received. The others are the old phone cord types.

I noticed OWC has them here... http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/BAA36VPRAM/

Thank You! - Tried the PRAM reset and it continues to boot up and then asks me if I want to rebuild the desktop. I suspect the keyboard is a little flaky because if I click on any thing that requires a keyboard input, like file name, it starts inserting "3's" as if the 3 key is depressed...

Hopefully there is an easy answer on my first problem. 1.) Mac IIci, system 7.1, does not remember it's control panel settings. I can set the monitor to display in color (Apple Hi Res RGB), turn it off and it starts up back in black and white. I am hoping this is a logic board battery, but...

Actually, after closer review, the first link to New Egg is a Din 8 male to DB9 female, when what I need is a Din 8 male to DB9 male.

Thanks - I have one that I purchased (not an original) and I cannot get a supposed known good imagewriter II to work, so the first thing I wanted to try (after upgrading the imagewriter driver to a system 6 version) was the cable. I find it difficcult to see how a cable of this nature could be...

Wow, I did not know this. And to think, all these years I thought the law suits were for outright thievery of the design. Not sure I would have agreed with the judge's decision, but I guess it boils down to if Apple meant only that version of Windows, they should have worded the licensing...

I am choosing to use a Mac several generations old because it allows me to get back into the Mac world without breaking the bank. I am not a newcomer to Macintosh. I was a certified Apple technician in the early 90's, so it's been a while since I cracked a case. I have always contended that...

What about a PCIe controller for the SSD? I have found on another forum a G5 Jive SATA II card and I think that will work giving me at least SATA II.

My question was more around whether a Mac SSD was in any way proprietary forcing me to have to buy it at a Mac Premium. Didn't mean to suggest that OWC was gauging Mac users, in fact I just bought memory from them and received outstanding customer service. Good to know about the SATA 1. It...

I am looking to replace the hard drive in a newly acquired Power Mac G5 Quad. Aside from price/quality, is there anything special for the Maintosh that I should take into consideration? Windows 7 has built in trim support and has had it for a while, not sure how Leopard handles this or whether...

I am trying to find an original peripheral-8 mini din 8 to DB9 cable (Apple part # M0815) to connect a Mac 512k to an imagewriter II. I purchased a knock off and I think it is faulty, so if anyone has seen an actual apple cable, please let me know.

I did contact the vendor and they confirmed the inclusion of the runway board and that the board I purchased was in fact the kit for Quad G5, Late 2005. THe only part number they had listed as 922-7152.

Thanks for the quick response. Did not know about the runway card. So once I get it installed properly, Leopard will configure automatically. That makes it fairly easy.

I purchased a Power Mac G5 Quad on e-bay and have ordered a WiFi/Bluetooth board from an on-line vendor. My question is if the installation is straightforward. Will Leopard recognize the board and have drivers or will I have to download and configure? Any gotchas that anyone has run into...
