I have a QuickTake 150 camera that refuses to "mount". I'm using the QuickTake 1.0 software but it won't mount the camera so I can't get the images from the camera to my laptop. This is my first time using the software and the camera so I have little experience with this. Any ideas?

I got an Apple Express Base Station (with software and AC adapter) and a Motorola "Surfboard" SB4100 modem with software and ethernet cables along with a bunch of things. I got it from my local freecycle. The lady said in the e-mail that the base station and the modem did NOT work. I got home...

On Wednesday a man put an ad on my local Craigslist saying that at noon Thursday he was going to give away all his Mac stuff and that it was available on a first-come first-serve basis. I showed up at 11:59. Some guys got ghetto and showed up at 11:15 and took 2 maxed out 9600 and 2 maxed out...

I'm having problems with AppleTalk. Every time I restart my laptop it turns off. I can't get LocalTalk Bridge to work unless AppleTalk stays on. I know it's not my PRAM battery because my date and time information all stays intact. I tried disableing all unecessary extensions in case it was...

I have a blackbird that stopped working on me. Everything was great and yesterday i started it up and nothing. No start-up chime and black screen. I reset the power manager and nothing. Does anybody have a clue of what might be wrong? Thanks.
