Got it out. I wasn't expecting a little bit of plastic on another part (the carrier) to be the latch.

I am having trouble removing the PSU from my Quadra 700. The Service Source Take Apart mentions a "latch" but does not show where it is our how to unlock it. I can get the rear to move a few mm but the front seems stuck and I can see any latches or anything obviously holding it in. I don't want...

yes, I am in Australia and everything retro computing is pretty inconvenient from here. We are use to it ;-) I did place an order with OWC, I didn't realise they still sold this stuff and I have used them for a lot of stuff in the past.

Does anyone know of a source for 16MB 30-pin SIMMs? I need 4 for my Quadra 700.

Nothing inserted into the slots even shows up as a generic device. As an example my CF Card and FArrallon ethernet card show up on the desktop under 8.6 even if there drivers aren't installed. They don't show up at all under 7.6.1 even with the drivers for the card installed. It seem like the...

I have a PB2400c running 8.6 and I am experimenting with downgrading it to 7.6.1. The OS will install find but the PCMCIA slots now don't work. I am assuming that as the 2400c originally shipped with 7.6.1 these slots should work. Any ideas?

That work and it is very useful.

Great, thank you. That did work however I tried asap-status localhost and got a command not found error.

I wasn't sure where to post this but it is Netatalk 2.3 related. I want to turn off guest access. I figured it would be easy and I can read man pages. I was wrong, I have been going down blind alleys and scratching my head for days. Can someone explain to me how I turn off guest access to my...

I did use it back in the day and was hoping to find out what versions worked with what Mac OSs and if anyone has tried it via GlobalTalk. I couldn’t find anything so did the testing myself. I found that I could run Timbuktu Pro v3 quite stably on System 7.1 through to Mac OS 8.6. And it does run...

I am going to attempt to get Timbuktu working between my office and man cave. They are currently both on the GlobalTalk network. Has anyone had any experience with this?

awesome. Thank you. I will give them a try.

I should've been a little more specific. I also wanted to work with Mac OS 9. I am pretty sure the WPA2 stuff doesn't work on Mac OS 9, hence the setting up of the original graphite BaseStation. I managed to find an original airport card in an iBook G3 clamshell I had and it works beautifully on...

I am looking for drivers for Mac OS X 10.4.11 for my Pismo. I have both Orinoco Silver and Gold cards as well as a Lucent WaveLan card and want to get wifi working. I already have an original Graphite Basestation working. I have done a few searches and all I can find is the IOExpert drivers...

Persevere. I have opened approx. 20 of them and never had a motherboard fail. Lots of display cables being cut and hinges breaking but never anything that stopped it working apart from a corroded barrel connector that was easy to diagnose and repair.

I have units where the light never comes on and still power up. However, I agree it is odd. Given the other symptoms it does sound like a power issue. You say you have tested the barrel connector on the power brick, next I would open it up and see if that power is making it through the female...

I opened a virgin eMate I got on eBay yesterday. The plastic is amazingly flexible compare to its Mac contemporaries. Just don’t forget the screw in the handle. It is hard to see as the rubber plug that covers it the same colour as the unit.

Try this specific sequence if you haven’t already. Plug in the AC adapter, wait about 30 sec, hold down the power key, press the little reset button on the back while still holding down the power key for another 30 sec. Release the power key and hopefully about 1 minute later you should see the...

Apple Service had a part number which was a bag of 100 mouse balls.

Dumb question but do you have the sound and contrast sliders turned up? I have been caught out my this before. I had a unit which didn’t show the green or orange power light but was on. I just could see or hear it.
