I'm a regular MacNN reader with a new, anonymous account for today to protect the innocent and not so innocent. The file below landed in my inbox the other day - forwarded from a …

Having seen the photos of the Delicious Crew sporting custom tee's at trade conferences, I was curious to know if there will any of those sweet looking t-shirts available for sale …

We're working on putting up a web store where we'll sell T-shirts and some other nifty monster stuff, as well actually useful stuff like scanners a-la-carte. In fact, we already ha…

Hey guys, I got a new G7 mouse that rocks with my PC. The trouble is, I want to use it with my Mac and it won't work. I can move the pointer around, but I can't click...any though…

I have the G7 mouse and it works fine. I've used it on my old Powerbook and my new MacBook. I downloaded USB Overdrive to assign the function buttons but left and right click worke…

Thanks for the reply jdiddy. I don't see what I am doing wrong than. I have never had an issue with any peripheral on my Mac. I know the mouse works because I use it all the time …

Are you using the dongle or the base unit to connect? Maybe you could try switching between the 2.

Okay, So here is the interesting thing. I can plug the dongle into my MBP, and the mouse works as normal, albeit, slowly; USB Overdrive would remedy that I'm sure. But, no matter…

Funny thing is, I just had a very rare crash on my Mac...you know the one, where the screen goes dim and it tells you how to restart the mac in several languages. Anyways, can i ta…

Well with the MBP you can just change the settings on the mouse itself. I find using the fastest setting, the one at the top is best within OSX. Have you tried messing with the Mou…

Yeah I looked there ... nada. What I need to do is spend some time looking for conflicts with other devices...I don't see that too often, but it is possible. Thanks again for the s…

I dont have the G7, but i do have the mx518 ( another non-mac gaming mouse ) and it works wonderfully when mapped with USB overdrive. i was going to get the g5, but it's missing …

We've been using Visioneer's Paperport VX to store documents in a database (4D) through Paperport deluxe. Now that we're upgrading everyone to iMacs, we have a problem. Since USB t…

I don't know who told you that USB to SCSI adapters don't work if you have only one device on the chain. I am using a 2G Jaz drive on my iMac DV. Works great.

USB to SCSI adaptors only work if the item on the chain provides termination power. Your Jaz drive does. The paperport VX scanner from visioneer does not. The only way to add termi…

Can you get an adapter to put on the end of the SCSI connecter of the scanner?

You don't have to go and get new scanners. The USB to SCSI adapter from Second Wave called SCUSBee works with the scanner being the lone device in the chain. In my opinion, this is…

I bought a linksys wireless WRT54G router for my MacBook. It works fine when no securtiy is enabled. The problem is that it won't work with WEP. I set up WEP, turn it on, enter the…

The way a WEP key is entered in a Linksys router is different from the way the key is entered on a Mac. In fact, Apple does almost everything different from the rest of the indust…

Thanks. Works perfect.

I have a bunch of 8 mm home movies that my dad made when i was little. Is there any way to convert them to DVD short of videotaping them as they are shown on a screen?

I got several of our old, silent 8mm movies done here 2.5 years ago: http://www.homemoviedepot.com/ I highly recommend it. If you have iMovie and iDVD, you may want to consider …

Buy a movie scanner, use it, then sell it on ebay.

I'm gearing up to send some less important 8mm movies to http://www.homemoviedepot.com/ as a test. They seem to have the best combo of quality and price that I could find. Especial…
