all valid questions to which i don't have the answers, all rendered redundant as the new router reaches all corners of the house. base station now destined for music sharing. many thanks for taking the trouble to reply! 'hay

Hi all, I recently bought a new wireless router with the idea of using my old airport express base station to boost the signal of the new router. However, since setting up the new router and plugging the base station in in another room, Airport Utility cannot detect it. The light is flashing...

Oh joy. Well, thanks for the confirmation, DeltaMac. At least I managed to save the vitals. And yes, it was an "erase and restore". This is not the first time I've had to change the HD, and the one I bought last time had nowhere to plug in the temp monitor, so I'm wondering if this isn't an...

Hope someone's still checking this... Managed to save everything vital using Target Disc Mode via iBook Tried a clean install, went to restart, no joy Disk Utility, erased volume, then install, everything great Restart Got to blue screen which then faded to a grey-blue screen, stayed there for...

well i tried a clean install but installer found problems with the disc and after a restart, the HD appears not to work at all. this just gets better and better. don't know what to suggest to you MC - i am clearly not the best person to help. good luck

Apologies for bumping my own thread, but I'm going spare and wanted to double check to see if anyone had any further suggestions before I go through the drama of a reinstall. Thanks.

Apologies for the delay in getting back on this, but I'm a-traveling. that didn't make any difference, I'm afraid. I still get stuck at the blue screen, before I even get to a log in dialogue. Anyone got any more suggestions, please? Seems like my only option for now is a backup and clean install.

Hi Giaguara. I'll give it a try. Fortunately my trusty iBook is working (touch wood) so downloading won't be a problem. Getting it onto Big Mac might be though, but I'll give it a spin and let you know. As a further update, I zapped the PRAM to the tune of three bongs - no change...

what application are you talking about? Anything specific or do you mean in general? I regularly write in both Spanish and English, so I hear where you're coming from, but I tend to check things afterwards. Spellcheckers are evil, after all. It's not like they're foolproof.

Hello all. Long time no see. I'm running 10.4.11 on a 17" iMac g5. A couple of days ago it froze and on restart I got an orange screen (never seen that before) and then nothing. A couple more restarts got slightly further, at least as far as my wallpaper loading, then blue screen. I've gone in...

Sorry to bump an old thread but i tried googlewave and HATED it. munched up my 2gb of ram and did absolutely nothing to organise my life. very code heavy pages and and all round spinning beachball of death scenario. anyone have a good time with it?

OMG I am such a dunce. I already had ultralingua and just had to dl the appropriate spanish-english dictionary. Sorry to have wasted your time. Regards, 'hay

Hi folks - long time no post. Hope you're all well! I'm desperately looking for an English - Spanish translation app for OSX.4.11, preferably free, of course, ha ha, but if anyone out there can make a recommendation, I'm willing to fork out as I need it for work. 'hay

great, thanks DeltaMac

Sorry for the tardy bump on this, but i'm just getting round to buying (no funds, sadly). Can I use SATA 2 or 3 as well? Thanks in advance

Great, no built in camera, so that's some good news. Will try a data recovery thing, getting a quote at least. People down these 'ere parts are quite wily, so may find a back street practitioner (ooer). Thanks again for the help everyone.

Sorry for the late reply, I'm out and about. thanks for the response, I'm looking into ways to rescue my data, most backed up, but lots of really important new stuff to retrieve, of course. Can anyone point me to a list of suitable HDDs for the aforementioned mac?

iMac G5 Tiger 10.4.11 froze during a video stored on internal HDD and would not respond to force quits and force restarts. [cue derision] in a fit of pique I unplugged the power, figuring the machine had survived power cuts before.[/cue derision] It did not. Survive, I mean. Now getting...

What, no magic wand, Sñr Diablo??? Hehe, thanks for the answer, though it depressingly confirms my fears. Wonder what they filter, how and why. EDIT: oh, and the weirdest thing of all is that it comes and goes. Mrs 'Hay is currently in Facebook heaven with no glitches whatsoever.
