Does anybody know what if any length limitations there are in a mac to mac ethernet connection, and where I could find various lenghts of ethernet cable w/ RJ-45 jacks at each end.…

I don't know how far they can go but, to get long lengths, you have to go to your dealer or anyone that can make cables and ask them to make it and how long it can go.

Category 5 Ethernet cable runs can be a maximum of 100 meters without any sort of repeater. Anything longer than that will require a repeater inline. Are you utilizing a hub-to-hub…

I need help as fast as I can get it. I need to figure out how to connect my new BW G3 to my trusty HP 5MP printer. Keyspan USB to serial does not work. Has someone figured it out? …

Farallon makes some LocalTalk to Ethernet connectors. Check their web site.

I sent email to sales@keyspan.com. They answered my question about an adapter for my HP 4 ML by telling me it would be available in April and probably cost $100. Suggest you try th…

My printers all now work. The Epson connects through the Keyspan USB and the HP 5MP goes through Farallon's iPrint ethernet to localtalk. All's well that ends (prints) well.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought the B/W G3's had an IRDA (infrared) "port". If so, one should be able to communicate to a LaserJet 5/6 MP printer using the IRDA. It may …

Hello, I wonder is there any place I can buy a 7"NuBus A/V card for my PowerMac 6100/60? Thank you

I have 2 IMACs that both have Apple Remote Access software on them. I need to install one of the machines at a site that has a NT Network running. Using my internet access I want…

First, to connect to an NT network, all you need is a standard base-T cable plugged into the ethernet port of your iMac. For further functionality and interoperability with the NT …

Well, subject pretty much says it all. Does anyone have experience with putting a Mac in a new case? I have a 7300 that I'd like to put into a big tower so that I can add more driv…

Hi, you can put the 7300 in any ATX Style case. Apple just used a form factor near ATX. The only thing to do is to make your own I/O shield in the back of the case, because most A…

My opinion....All processors are the same, only rated for performance. Meaning, chips may qualify for the 400MHz range but released as 300-50MHz models based on performance ratings…

The 9 GB hard drive on my brand-new B&W 400 mhz crashed and was diagnosed by Apple tech support as "dead". It was replaced under warranty by an Apple certified service dept. B…

Yes, that is probably right. 8.5 GB 8.5*1024 = 8704 MB 8704*1024 = 8912896 KB Most people just look at the 8912896 KB and call it 9 GB (when it really is only 8.5 GB) because they…

where in the boot process does the 120 crash? Just a wild guess here....my Power Computing machine has a reset button on the mother board called a CUDA switch. Try pressing that an…

We're trying to add a Mac 7100 System 7.5 to a Wintel-based network. How do we get the mac to recognize the server?

I'm not sure about the system compatibility with such an old and outdated system as 7.5 but you're either gonna need to install "NT Services for Macintosh" on the NT Servers or ins…

Try Dave 2.1, it is very good. I know because we use it at school and it doesn't hassle the Administrator.

You can try MacServerIP from CyanSoft (www.cyansoft.de). You can download a demo version and try it for 30 days.
