Fully updated, except for the latest Safari. Ideas, suggestions? If you are just going to watch Youtube, I would suggest you get a Youtube downloader (Google, and it will easily be found), and watch the downloaded Youtube on something like VLC. Or, like me, I would switch onto my Panther 10.3 partition, running Firefox 2.04 to watch anything Flash based. It seems to work for me, and Youtube works fine like that. Upgrading ram may help, with my iMac, I had 512mb ram, but upgraded to 768mb, which sped flash up a bit. Thanks, Po-en Tsai -- iMac G3 350 MHz, running OSX 10.4, 10.3 and OS 9.2.2 with 768MB ram.

Re: Upgrading an old G3
She said AIO. If you look carefully, she says 600MHz. Linda: A 600MHz All in one G3 (Im guessing will be an iMac) will definitely be able to run Tiger, providing you have a DVD Drive (Firewire or internal). Or if you are lucky, you may be able to get a copy of the 4 CD Tiger retail discs. I have Tiger running on a 350MHz iMac G3, and it runs like a charm, providing you have more ram. Tiger's minimum is 256mb, but I highly recommend getting at least 512mb of ram, if not 1gb, the maximum. iMac G3's actually run quite fast, (especially 600MHz) and your sister really doesn't need a newer computer :) More ram would be good though.

Re: It is official, we are orphans.
Also, I might point out the MacBooks are now only polycarbonate white plastic. The Aluminium Macbook is now the MacBook Pro with added Firewire and SD Card slot (all Macbook Pros have that now.) So there is now 13, 15 and 17 inch MBP's! This is probably the best WWDC there has been.

Re: External HD noy showing up on Desktop
I have an old imac g3 and after force shutdowns, the external drives take ages to initialize. (~10mins) so I would turn on the mac, and let the drives initialize.

iMac G3 500 or G4 Powermac 400?
Hello, I have a choice from my school for a iMac G3 Indigo Slot Load 500Mhz OR a G4 Powermac 400Mhz DVD free. Which one do you think is better, performance wise, and more reliable?

The 10.4.11 Security Update 2009-002 downloaded in ~3 mins and installed fine. After installing, reboot took longer than usual, but after the first reboot, the second rebot was fast again.

Re: Missing itunes folders and playlists
1. If I were you, I would get all my music onto the external hdd, then re-import your songs into iTunes, making sure before you copy, the checkbox 'copy files to iTunes music folder' is unticked in the advanced panel of iTunes preferences. 2. OR, move your iTunes folder from your music folder on osx onto your external hdd, and in the preferences of iTunes, advanced panel, choose the folder you stored the iTunes folder in on the external hdd. Restart iTunes, and your music should be alright. On 5/9/09, Meghrouni Vince foomc...@sbcglobal.net wrote: I'd set my iTunes preferences to store my music files in an external HD.
