Re: Wireless network WPA2 problem

Hello Neil, Are you using the latest firmware for your Router ... http://au.billion.com/support/bipac7402vgp.php There were issues with earlier version firmware not being able to use WPA2. I had no problems with the airport express - other than complaining that it wasn't connected to the

Re: Wireless network WPA2 problem

Sorry Neil, on closer reading, doesn't seem that you're using WDS anyway. I had an Apple base station in place to extend the reach of my 7404VGP- M's wireless network, as well as an Airport Express. And I recall somewhere along the line learning that if I wanted security in place, it had

iBook G4 track pad problems

I have a G4 iBook which is a little long in the tooth these days. Running latest version of Leopard. The track pad has developed a problem in that sometimes the cursor moves as normal, and sometimes the cursor just stays in one spot. Using a mouse gets round the problem, but it's not

Paul, I am making up a Mp3 CD of 70 years of hits for a friend's birthday. She has a Yaris. Does your Yaris have an Mp3 player built in? regards Kev -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml Guidelines -

Re: HD camcorder for Mac?

HD is great (i assume you mean High Def) But you can only view proper HD on an HD TV or an appropriate monitor. Normal LCD projectors are not HD and normal TVs and 720? TVs are not HD. Also consider archiving your footage. - Tape based high def cams are a great option for archiving. What do you do

Re: iBook G4 track pad problems

Hi Steven I had problems with the trackpad on by iBook G4. The problem sounds similar to yours, but i also had times when the cursor would jump across the screen as I tried to use the trackpad. My solution was to get the trackpad replaced under the Apple Care extended warranty. That

HD optimisation

Hi everyone Hope you are all going well on this nice, slightly wet spring day. I would like advice on the merits of optimising the HD on my Macbook Pro (10.5.2 with 250gb HD 3mb Ram). During my offshore trip to the Timor Sea I have recently just about filled the drive (has 12gb free at the

Re: HD camcorder for Mac?

Hi Paul, if you are thinking of High Definition, so long as you have: an Intel Mac iLife 08 You no longer need firewire if you have an Intel Mac and iLife 08. Most camcorders are compatible with iMovie 08 using USB to get the footage uploaded. They all have ways of linking directly to TVs -

Sluggish iMac

I have a 2.4GHz Intel iMac running OSX ver. 10.5.4, 2GB RAM, wireless keyboard and mighty mouse. I have recently experienced occassions when the cursor has been sluggish to respond to mouse commands and moves around the screen in small 'jumps' as opposed to a smooth flowing movement. Less

David, You will see an improvement with more RAM. Visit http://www.islayer.com/ and download and install iStatMenus. You can then monitor the CPU/RAM usage and see what is going on ! (What exactly is hogging the RAM and CPU) Others will offer their hints but they are mine ! Regards Mark

Hi Ronni, No, I'm still with the firmware that came with it (5.04k). I was very unwilling to upgrade firmware after reading many of the forums (both Billion Whirlpool) where many people were having problems with the later firmware - particularly with myNetphone (who have a couple of interesting

Re: Wireless network WPA2 problem

Hi Steven, As I discussed in my reply to Ronni, I'm a bit leery of updating the software - I may try Billion's support though. No, I'm not trying to set it up as a WDS and yes, I have ( will!) remain firmly ethernet connected while setting up! Cheers Neil -- Neil R. Houghton Albany, Western
