I've got a Mac TV that didn't boot until it had a thorough scrubbing. It seems it's time to replace the 5 electrolytic caps. Does anyone know what cap is at C195? It's labelled as 100 uf 25v, but I want to make sure I get a tantalum one that's the right size. I can post a pic later if that...

Apparently firmware 2.0.1 has been relatively hard to find fo several years now. It once was hosted here as well, also gone and not captured: http://alphaxion.dyndns.org/utils/utils.shtml This is all assuming i can get teh windows version of it to work...

I'm still searching for this, and I'm gonna keep updating my thread as I go.  Does anyone have the original CD that came with the third gen iPod? There's a good chance what I'm looking for is on there.  If Apple hadn't shutdown their old download pages, I'd be good to go... the windows version...

Just going to keep adding to this for posterity: https://forums.ilounge.com/threads/ipod-itunes-and-mac-os-9-2.25093/   Looks like the file I seek is called 'iPod201.dmg'

Does anyone out there have a collection of old iPod firmwares? I have found a couple posts (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/350308) mentioning an older version of the iPod 3rd gen working in OS 9 on an older firmware version. I have 2.3  installed, and I can find .ipsw for that version...

I have a voodoo trick that works on mine.  Try leaving it plugged in for a few hours so the battery charges. Then disconnect the power adapter, and remove the battery. Then, holding down the power button, push the battery back in.

Love it. Watching with interest!

Hard to take a pic of this, but I replaced the fan in my Color Classic with an Noctua fan, and it is nearly silent.  The Noctua included 2 different adapters for different volume (fan speed) levels, but the two weren't labelled as to the difference, so I'm not sure which was which.  But either...

This is so delightfully weird, i love it. I have never heard of such a thing.

System Picker https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/system-picker should be just what you need!

I worked at an AASP when the icebooks were current. Smelly keyboard syndrome was (is!)  real. It is a very particular odor, and I can recall it to this day. Maybe whatever was causing it had to do w/ local weather humidity or something? Which explains why some folks have never smelled it and...

Just bumping this to see if anyone else has tried this. Thanks!

The Newton natively only support Linear Flash, which is not what a compact flash card is. However! You can download ATA Support here: https://www.kallisys.com/ and you can use a compact flash card in a PCMCIA adapter.  You won't be able to transfer files by putting them on the card, the...

I believe I have a stock 2400 CPU. Let me check and get back to you.

For the 2000/2100 you would need a AA battery 'cage', in my experience the rechargeable packs are more common with those. Any 100 series just takes AA's as is, and modern rechargeable AA's last a good while. Newtontalk is the best resource for Newton info, if you're not used to a mailing list...

I'm not sure if a compact mac has the horsepower to do what you're looking for, exactly. I have a color classic I had hoped to use as a music visualizer, but in my searches I did not find anything that is would run on a 68k. GeForce and WhiteCap both are PPC only and can listen on the mic input...

I recently picked up a working 3rd gen iPod (dock connector, 4 buttons across the top only charges via firewire), and I'm trying to see if I can get it to show up in iTunes 2 in Mac OS 9. I'm connected to a G4 cube via firewire, I know OS 9 never did anything w/ USB syncing and ipods. I found a...

A mild update to my earlier query about the Studio Display at resolutions other than 640x480 or 1280x1024.  Installing several different ATI drivers made no difference... but installing 9.2.2 did. 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, and native all work normally and look good now. 

Also, I'm noticing some weird splotches in the black plastic on the image. Not sure what that is, it's not there in real life.

I recently got a gen-u-wine Macintosh TV front plate for my 575 with a Macintosh TV board. One black piece at a time, I guess...the two tone look is a little funny but it works. But i realized the TV uses a caddy CD-ROM, so my current tray loader is blocked.
