    Macintosh Portable battery replacement

    Just a quick bit of info don't use the PowerBook adapter, you're going to kill the portable. Also you should have this topic moved to the 68k PowerBook forum, its more likely to get noticed by those who can help.

    Next acquisition...

    Picked up a Mac II off of LEM for free plus the cost of shipping.  It's gonna need some work. Leaking and falling off caps on the logic board and traces looking like garbage.   But it did have original box, some books, and an accelerator I haven't seen before.

    Macintosh TV Recap Issue

    Apple video player is not the app the TV uses. You need the specific TV control panel that switches from computer display to TV, and it will work with just the RCA port without the tuner board installed. Took a few, but here's a link to topic about the software with download link...

    PB 3400 - constant pressed shift key!?

    Are you sure there wasn't any corrosion from the pram battery? I want to say the area under the battery is where adb connection is. Every 3400 I've opened I've had to clean at least a little bit of crap off the logic board from the battery which solved random problems.

    Adding Wi-Fi to my Mac SE/30

    Here's a link to his project. http://synack.net/~bbraun/wnce2001config.html I think it would be pretty neat to be able to do the config on the 68k machine.

    Old Mac, Modern Internet

    I know I would be interested in something like that. It would give an old machine on my desk a use again. You should start a new topic about it and maybe there will be more interest.

    Yeah its probably been a year since I had gotten my last one undamaged.  Surprisingly this one came USPS and wasn't even packaged great but it was a sturdy box without much excess room on the sides to be filled in.

    Well just picked up another Macintosh TV.  This one came from ebay with shipping from Texas to Michigan.  Its my first 5xx series in a while that did not get damaged in shipping..... But the Maxell bomb has killed it.  Came with nice keyboard and mouse.  The back cover panel has some rust on the...

    AppleCD 300 driver

    What software exactly did you try to install for the extension? The mac driver museum has the universal apple cd driver along with third party drivers such as cd sunrise etc. the 300 or 300i should be the same drive just one in an external case.

    Where Do I Even Start?

    I don't blame the shipping companies or the product. I have had these machines come perfectly intact and utterly destroyed and it rests solely on how the seller packages it.

    It's a trinitron so they are pretty flat. And I had always been looking for a ColorSync because it was the monitor that used to be shown in advertisements with the beige G3. I can't believe it took me this long to end up owning one.

    Next acquisition...

    Well thanks to ArmorAlley my Mac TV is finally in a more or less finished state. It now is complete with a European keyboard and mouse. And for the record getting a mouse from Switzerland was far more affordable than the only one that's posted all the time on eBay.

    For the voltage you generally need to go to higher voltage not lower if you can't find exact match.

    Old Mac, Modern Internet

    With all the talk that's going on lately with old macs and internet this seems like an appropriate place to share what I think would be really cool. I wish that I could use for instance the old AOL software on one of my 68k macs but have current content delivered to the application. It would...
