    can't get my HP C4385 to wirelessly connect to powerbook G4

    OK. I asked for the IP address just to see if the printer and Mac are in the same subnet (meaning that the IP addresses both start with 192.168.1 in your case). To eliminate the possibility that the router has lost contact with the printer, power cycle the router first (off 20 secs then back...

    can't get my HP C4385 to wirelessly connect to powerbook G4

    Your post is confusing because you haven't told us anything about your local network - router, modem, etc. The link you tried to follow was about using a dlink-brand print server. Do you have one of those, too? Using a wireless printer is about making your printer a "member" of your local...

    how to keep my 3 internal hdd's appart?

    Use Utilities> Disk Utility to get specific model number info on the drives (at least the good ones), and use that to identify the bad one. I guess it's too late to tell you to get an external drive for backup? Everything fails sooner or later! You need to back up!

    CUPS printer problems

    For 10.4, to get http (which is just an alias/link to ipp, by the way), do this; Open Printer Setup; click add/+; hold down option key and click More Printers; in the top pull-down protocol menu, select Advanced; now in the second pull-down select IPP using http. Do you know the print queue for...

    CUPS printer problems

    Brother provides CUPS-compatible OS X drivers (It's the only maker of non-postscript printers to do that so far). Maybe the issue is the Print Server and what protocol it supports?

    Downloading Problem !

    OK, that's good info so far. What you didn't tell us is a specific file you were trying to download. This matters, because even though lots of files are "available," that doesn't mean there will be "seeders" to provide every file at a given time. I have gotten frustrated and given up many...

    CUPS printer problems

    The printer probably came with an installer CD that puts the driver pieces in the right places. If not, download it from: http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/download_top.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=hl2040_all By the way, the CUPS interface is just a different view of...

    Complicated network / printer sharing issue

    I think your info on the setup is not complete - Is the express there just to add wireless to the other router? Have you turned off router functions (unchecked distribute IP addresses) on the Express, so it isn't giving out IP addresses (otherwise, Express would effectively isolate the PC's from...

    panasonic video camera

    The Windows software for USB data transfer includes controls for the camera - it isn't just a matter of driver. You need to use another computer to download the video from that camera. OS X - linux - Windows with firewire, or, Windows with USB and the panasonic software. I don't have the camera...

    Dlink DNS-321 NAS HDD Samba problem

    I don't have one of those, so I'm kind of giving you "ideas" here... If it's only some files, do some folders have different permissions? Or aren't "shared?" What OS is the NAS running?

    Dlink DNS-321 NAS HDD Samba problem

    Try this command in Terminal: sudo chflags nouchg /Volumes/Volume_1 (I'm guessing that Volume_1 is the drive's name?) sudo means superuser do - it asks for password - type your admin password, and don't be surprised that it doesn't let you see it as you type. Now you can highlight the drive...

    Fast internet connection, SLOW page load

    The DNS server is the place your computer sends page requests to - it translates "domain name" requests to IP addresses.

    How To Link my G4 Tower and Operate it from my Mac Mini

    Yes, what I described is what you do to remote control the G4 from the mini, including using OS 10.4. I didn't give you the file sharing instructions yet - go ahead and just try the remote control (VNC) part. These extra gyrations are required for direct ethernet - computer to computer: 1)...

    How To Link my G4 Tower and Operate it from my Mac Mini

    a two-part answer is required - Control the G4 by VNC/Remote Desktop. On the G4, System Prefs > Sharing, Services, turn on Personal File Sharing and Apple Remote Desktop. On the mini, get a VNC client (also called viewer): I have this one and it works - http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/...

    Mackbook Pro VS Sony Camcorder

    OK, that means it doesn't recognize that the camera is attached. I can think of some possibilities - the MacBook Firewire port is broken, or, the cable is bad - or, - the camera isn't working - OR, you don't have playback turned on, on the camera.
