Global Village PowerPort 2.5

#1 Sat, 7 Feb 2015 - 00:20 68kMLA

Hello all.. I need help.. My Global Village PowerPort software for my Powerbook Duo 2300c that was on floppies was ruined in my basement... I thought I had backed it up on hard disk years ago but apparently not.. My duo has a PowerPort/Mercury modem in it..

Any help would be appreciated... I need the full version that I DO own... I do have the 2.5.5 update.. but I need the 2.5 before I update it...

Please PM if you can assist..

Most Sincerely,

Aplmak

It may be labeled as "GlobalFax"... It's specifically the "GlobalFax PowerPort/Mercury" Not Teleport or Platinum...

Nevermind... I just took the 2.5.5 updater and used tomeviewer... Let's see if it works...

Thanks... Yeah I've been there... There is still copyright on the software... even though I own the modem and owned the software.. You can't download it anywhere... Just updates... As I said I just took the 2.5.5 update and used tomeviewer.. got the files I need... Now I'm gonna give it a go..

I have the two floppies here that shipped with the 2300c that installed the telecom software, however I don't remember if they included support for the PowerPort modems. I swear I ran into this issue once before but I forget how I resolved it.
