an iPhone 3 question: sorry about that

2013-12-07 Thread Murray Woods
I would appreciate someone redirecting me to the correct forum. My  
iPhone 3 (?) has all of a sudden stopped receiving mail on my home  
wireless connection, although it still sends it and Safari works.


Mea culpa, about the forum.

older MacMini and OS 9.1

2013-01-01 Thread Murray

Hi:

I have an older PPC MacMini 7400 running OS X 4.11 which i purchased  
overseas a while back. When I reformatted the drive, using the  
original disks, I didn't bother installing the system 9.1 option. Now  
I would like to do so.


If I run the installer for OS 9.1.(I think it's on disk #2) will it  
load without having to reformat the entire drive again for OS X 4.11,  
or should I save all my files, onto a largish external USB drive  
which I have, do it all over again, or perhaps, just forget the whole  
thing.


Thanks for any help you can offer.

Murray Woods

Re: older MacMini and OS 9.1

2013-01-01 Thread Murray

Thanks for the reply.

I just want to install OS 9 and run it from the machine. My main  
interest is to be able to access my old Address Book program from  
many years ago, I shall have to pull it off my old 9600/300 Power PC,  
which is gathering dust behind a sofa in my room.

If you're talking about installing Classic, the Classic installer will
just install Classic and 9.2.2, and will not reformat your disk or  
touch

10.4 otherwise.

If you're talking about installing OS 9, no Mac mini can boot Mac  
OS 9;

they can only run Classic.

DiskDoubler software

2012-01-01 Thread Murray

Hi:

I have been rummaging through my archives (read: Junk Pile) and have  
come across some files which had been DiskDoubled. Problem: my  
DiskDoubler software seems to have disappeared.


What solution is there (if I keep looking, I may find the original  
software on another old disk, I suppose) and i guess it is really not  
that important a file.


In any case, any help would be appreciated.

Re: Laserwriter 4/600 cartridge problem

2009-12-27 Thread Murray
I have an old LaserWriter 16/600PS which I bought used several years  
ago. It has  given (and is still giving) me yeoman service. It  
prints better than either of my wife's HP (much newer) printers (they  
give a pixellated (?) print-out on angled print boxes in ClarisWorks,  
etc.). I used it for several years with my old  PPC 9600/300, to  
which it is still connected with the old Mac printer serial cable.  
There are a couple of old programs which I use once or twice a year  
on this machine. I also have it connected to my newer G4 using a  
parallel to USB converter cable.

I tried desperately a year or so ago to install it on the G3, and  
it finally started to print as Unknown printer, whereas it comes up  
correctly under its original name with the 9600.

I have no idea why it works this way, and I was nearly ready to toss  
it out when it finally started to print using OS X 4.11.

I have three queries:

I am afraid ever to put the G4 into Classic mode, for fear it will  
never come back to OS X, and/or print correctly again.

Also, I am afraid to upgrade to the newer OS X.5 ... systems, for  
fear (see above).

(I also purchased a HP Color LaserJet CP1215 which, it seems, will  
never work with any Mac. Ah, well, I can always use my wife's PC,  
faute de mieux.)

Right now, and probably indefinitely, I am in the If it ain't broke,  
don't fix it mode.

Any advice?

My apologies if this is the wrong forum, or thread. Please move it to  
the correct one, if this is necessary.

Thanks for all and any advice.

 I bought a reconditioned cartridge for my LaserWriter 4/600 ages ago.
 Not used it all that much (this is the bit that hurts!) and it

 when I tried to gently sway it to even the toner it simply started
 to leak out of both sides like it thought it was a sand egg timer.
 Bloody hell! Why would the toner do this, are there seals that
 deteriorate?

 Anyway, appreciate anyone knowing where best to get a replacement (I
 am so loathe to get rid of it, I even have a perfect spare machine!
 But perhaps I should just buy a new USB machine, they are cheap
 enough I guess. I already have to start a 7300 on 9 to use it from my
 Quicksilver on X via ethernet and a little apple supplied program...

 I went through this very problem with a replacement cartridge for my
 LaserSelect 360.  Rather then tell you where I bought the cartridge,
 I will tell you this:  my NEW USB printer works much better than the
 LS 360 ever did.  IMHO, you should forget about the 4/600.  Don't
 waste any more money trying another cartridge when for about the same
 price you can join the 21st Century.
