[MacGroup] Windows The Outside World
Much to my chagrin I am going to try loading the Windoze on my Macbook, but before I do I have one question that I need answered. When in Windoze I don't want any contact with the outside world, only the one program I am working on. If I turn OFF airport on the Mac side before I boot to Windoze (using Boot Camp) will that keep me from being connected via wireless connection once I boot into Windoze? If not, what is it I need to turn off in Windoze? Is there an icon in the header like we have with the Mac wireless? I won't need Windoze any longer once I get the program that is going to be given to me rewritten to a database for the Mac so I don't need to worry about updates, patches and viruses software to keep me safe if I have no contact with the outside world and once done delete it all. Thanks so much for your help. John ___ The next Louisville Computer Society meeting will be February 26 at MacAuthority, 128 Breckinridge Lane.

[MacGroup] networked windows PCs
I'm having some issues with Leopard and networked PCs. While at work, when I first installed Leopard, I could always see the shared networked Windows PCs in the Finder side bar. Connecting and sharing files was simple. Now, when I'm at work, they don't show up in the sidebar. I can print to networked printers just fine, and access the internet, but no PCs are visible in the sidebar. I haven't changed any settings, and Firewall is set to allow all incoming connections. If I restart my macbook, then most of the time the 3 shared PCs show up and I can connect to them. But, if I don't connect to them right away and stay connected, they seem to disappear after a while, necessitating another restart. Any suggestions? rick ___ The next Louisville Computer Society meeting will be February 26 at MacAuthority, 128 Breckinridge Lane.

Re: [MacGroup] Leopard Kernel Panic
What I do (YMMV): I buy the cheapest that says it will work, usually starting at www.dealram.com, making sure they guarantee it (most do), and then return it if it doesn't work. Most suppliers have lifetime warrantees, so call where you ordered it and put a little firmness in your voice and ask for a replacement. All the manufacturers pretty much get their chips from the same few factories, so there is not a lot of difference as long as they carry the same spec. Crucial, Kingston, 18004memory, etc. all are reputable providers of memory to the world, but sometimes a chip is just a little off and doesn't get caught in testing. The few times in the last two decades that I have had problems with RAM I have had no trouble getting the provider to replace it, whoever it was. j. On Feb 4, 2008, at 9:35 AM, Nora J.

Many of you have replied and I thank you. I want to clarify what I am hoping to find out there. I don't want to carry a normal sized router nor do I want to have to go through the machinations of setting up a normal routher. What I really am hoping is out there is something small that you plug into the ethernet port of the dsl/cable box (in the port where you plug in your ethernet cable that connects to the computer) that will then send out a wireless signal. If there isn't such a gadget, there ought to be! Thanks. Harry Monday, February 4, 20086:02 PMHarry [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm in a hotel room right now. There is no wireless connection but there is a dsl or cable modem. The problem is the box is next to the bed, not near a desk so it makes it inconvenient to do any work. Is there a gizmo of any kind that one could plug into a dsl or cable modem to broadcast a wireless signal? Thanks.

Re: [MacGroup] wireless where there is no wireless
Harry, You have described the Airport Express. Plug it into an electrical outlet, run the ethernet cable from the room plug into the bottom of the express and you now are wireless. It is about the size of a pack of cigarettes. John On Feb 4, 2008, at 11:20 PM, Harry Jacobson-Beyer wrote: Many of you have replied and I thank you. I want to clarify what I am hoping to find out there. I don't want to carry a normal sized router nor do I want to have to go through the machinations of setting up a normal routher. What I really am hoping is out there is something small that you plug into the ethernet port of the dsl/cable box (in the port where you plug in your ethernet cable that connects to the computer) that will then send out a wireless signal.
