    ITunes 4

    I have QT Pro that I shelled out $30 for recently and the latest version of iTunes. I've seen some discussion here about converting songs to the new (AAC) format by selecting an AIFF song within iTunes and pulling down the Advanced menu and selecting "convert to AAC" or somesuch item. All I see...

    OSX and M$ Exchange Server

    As an added service, my agency has turned on some sort of switch in the Exchange server which allows me to get to my inbox, calendar, and contacts from any arbitrary web browser in any location on the net. See https://exchange.nsf.gov for the entry. It's not very full featured, but does let you...

    To sleep, never to wake

    Hi folks, I have a G3 Wallstreet with .5GB memory and an upgrade from original 300MHz CPU to 466. Running X 10.1.3. I having trouble waking from sleep - the screen seems to come on at about 5% of normal brightness, not enough to see what you're doing. Happens both on battery and on wall...

    Strange Cursor

    Couldn't find the reset button, though on the back of the powerbook is the word "reset" over an indication of a key combination - fn+ctrl+shift+power-on. This is different than the normal PRAM combination of Apple+option+P+R. In any case, neither combination fixed the cursor problem. I wish I...

    Strange Cursor

    Running OSX 10.1.3 on a G3 Wallstreet Powerbook with 1/2 gigabyte memory. For some time now, before 10.1 was released, I have had two parallel vertical lines by my standard arrow cursor. They are about 1/2 inch long and 1/4 inch apart and are white when over a dark background and black over a...

    Strange Pointer

    My standard pointer now has a couple of white lines about twice the length of the pointer floating off to the right of the pointer about 1/4 and 1/2 inch away. I've reinstalled twice (but not from a newly formatted drive) but it's still there. Is the pointer editable in X? Is there an icon...

    PPP problems with OS X on Wallstreet

    I think there are lots of us with Powerbook modem problems - I've seen many in lurking around these discussion forums. I've posted info about the problem on Apple's discussion site, but of course they do not reply. Wish I knew how to get their attention, or anyone's who have the knowledge to...

    PPP problems with OS X on Wallstreet

    I'm using a wallstreet 300 upgraded to 466. I can get a PPP connection, but can't do anything with it. That is, using OSX Internet connect tool, I get a terminal session with my PPP server, and after signing in, the Internet Connect tool thinks everything's all right. However, none of my...

    OSX and M$ Exchange Server

    I've been using Outlook in Classic under X for a couple of months. Seems to work as well as under 9, so it is possible to do. It is not an elegant application in any case. I hope their next release (I'm currently using version 9 build 1808) is better. The main problem I have is the incredible...

    Lost my network printer

    Just trying out X on one of my partitions. Generally a breeze so far, and I could almost live here except for a couple of things. The worst is that I had a network printer visible at first (its an HP 8100) using AppleTalk, but had to identify it as generic. So I went to HP's web site and got...
