Is it possible to install Mac OSX on a G3/300 iBook (Rev B - Tangerine clamshell) when its internal CD-ROM drive is shot? I have a PM G5 Dual (with Tiger on it) and an external USB Hard drive. I don't know if I can connect the USB hard drive to the USB port on the iBook and boot off the...

Hi, I'm new to this forum and in fact new to OSX (but with a fair bit of experience on other Mac OS). My problems are these. I have recently aquired a PPCG4 (Quicksilver 2002) 933mhz, running 10.2.8. It comes with Superdrive which works fine and an internal zip drive which doesn't work at...

Can you please advise me? I have a PowerMac G4 Digital Audio 667Mhz (ATA-66) running on MacOS 10.3.8. I have received varying advice about installing additional storage in my mac. I want to install an internal hard drive with at least 200Gb storage, but I understand that I have a limit...

Is there anyway to add an internal hard drive to a Power Mac G5 that was pulled from a PC and used a ribbon cable? The plugs don't seem to match up with the ones in the available slot in the G5. If not, would an iMac G3 support a second drive (IDE) in it or is there only room for one drive...

System: G4 Desktop Digital Audiol 768 2 internal hard drives: IBM 60 and Maxtor 80 I could not upgrade to Tiger from Panther on either drive. Apple suggested to set both drives to cable select. For this to work, however, I had to disconnect the Maxtor internal drive to install Tiger on the...

I've got an iMac 10.2.8, with the microphone built into the moniter. Well I've never really needed or wanted to use it before, until now. I searched for similar topics to this but couldn't really seem to find one that had the answer I'm looking for. Can anyone tell me how I can use it to...

Hey all, Does anyone know what component happens to be under the trackpad on the 15" PowerBook 1.5Ghz? In the last month or so there's be a noise of something that spins coming from there. Not overly loud, but a wee bit irritating non the less, coz it was silent before. I'm thinking its the...
