    A USB CD-R drive that will work with Mac OS 9 on G3 iMac?

    Yeah, I loaded Toast on it for mounting images. With the extensions loaded it does not recognize the Dell drive as being a writable drive, unfortunately.

    A USB CD-R drive that will work with Mac OS 9 on G3 iMac?

    So, Title says it all really, I'm looking for a USB CD burner that will work on a G3 iMac running Mac OS 9 so I can burn stuff I download on it rather than having to turn around to another machine. All my older external burners are SCSI and the only USB optical drive I have is a relatively new...

    Seagate ST1 microdrive -> PCMCIA on PB3400C

    Well I got a hold of a FireWire400 Lexar professional CF card reader for my MacBookPro so I'm back up with that.... I already used google search. I mostly found links referencing pages that didn't exist or reposts of the same pages and links to online stores that used to offer the service but...

    Seagate ST1 microdrive -> PCMCIA on PB3400C

    There have been no mods done to this PowerBook 3400 that I'm aware of... I take it the microdrives can't be read on a 16-bit pcmcia bus then?

    Seagate ST1 microdrive -> PCMCIA on PB3400C

    I'm running OS 9.1 on the PB3400 and have Drive Setup 2.0.3 which doesn't need to be patched to work with third party drives.... it works fine for initializing regular CF cards in the PCMCIA adapter(well, except for the part where it locks up after successfully initializing the card), but it...

    Seagate ST1 microdrive -> PCMCIA on PB3400C

    I did the formatting of both the ST1 drives and the regular CF cards under OS X's Disk Utility... but it would appear to have become a bit moot now as it seems with the update to Mavericks the other day on the MacBookPro my Lexar ExpressCard CF reader is not working anymore... even with the...

    Seagate ST1 microdrive -> PCMCIA on PB3400C

    They work fine in my Lexar ExpressCard CF reader. I'll go try from a cold boot.... though typically when I use just regular CF's in this adapter I'm able to insert/eject during regular operation. When I got these drives they were formated NTFS... I've since reformated them HFS+ under OS X.... I...

    Seagate ST1 microdrive -> PCMCIA on PB3400C

    Hi, So I got four 4GB Seagate ST1 microdrives which are supposed to be CF type II. I've been toying with the idea of using them on my Apple IIgs' SCSI chain... all points lead to a PCMCIA to SCSI device.. which would mean I'd need a CF to PCMCIA card adapter... After a bit of looking... it's a...

    Um... What is this cable?

    Now I just need to track down the monitor adapter for the 6100, find out if it even works, track down the card, and put the 6100 In place of the compaq presario 386... Hrrrmmmm... Other people might disagree... But I wouldn't. |)

    Diskettes, which brand?

    It probably doesn't help that with reduced sales things sit around longer on sales floors while more product sits on warehouse shelves waiting for replenishment orders... Waiting in warehouses with poor temp/humidity controls etc...

    Um... What is this cable?

    Oh, that? Wow... that's cool... That card would work with a PowerMac 6100?

    Diskettes, which brand?

    I've been told that Athana is the only company still making floppies and that any new ones you see on store shelves now are just rebranded. I dont know how true that is though. I bought some 5.25 DS/DD Floppies from them a few months ago over the phone. I can't yet speak for how reliable they...

    Umax supervista s-10 scanner drivers?

    Hi, So I'm doing some cleaning and I found this under a desk... Now I'm wondering if this could be used on a Mac IIfx? I have no idea if this scanner ever had 68k support or was PPC only. Searching for old drivers is such a drag...

    Newbie lost in front of a IIgs

    Juat a warniing about cleaning disks and Apple 5.25 drives(and any other other single sided 5.25 drives you may find on classic computers) Using a cleaning disk one one of thse can rip off the pad that applies pressure to the non-write side of the floppy disk. You need to cover the hole on the...

    Setting up my IIfx has been very circular...

    I'm going to risk sounding ignorant here... ...Whats that?

    Setting up my IIfx has been very circular...

    Someone ended up pointing out the Network Access Disk 7.5. And it was able to boot the IIfx and run the patched Drive Setup 1.5, so I now have two 2GB partitions. http://igsi.tripod.com/mac/index753.htm

    Setting up my IIfx has been very circular...

    ...any more circles, and I think I'm going to flip out. SoI have a IIfx, with a radius video card, 128MB of RAM, a 4.xxGB, a 300e CD rom drive and a black terminator outside, and what I guess is some kind of filter on the SCSI cable inside... and two new PRAM batteries from Radio Shack. I've...

    IIgs midi connector

    Cool. What software are you going to use? I have a couple serial midi interfaces I got free a couple months ago. They were used with Macs but I'd bet they'd work with my IIgs.

    Where to get the QuickTake install discs?

    So anal. Seriously. While we're being anal, I'd like to point out, that we were first still refering to the 100 and 150 for the first line there... and then when I refered to just "quicktake" in general, I said they didn't make sure. I don't beleive that's too far off. It's probably mostly...
