if you cannot connect it via ethernet, then get a USB wireless print server adapter.

The past few months, wireless wake on lan worked perfectly. I used to wake up my iMac with the Remote app on my iPhone to play music on my stereo.
However, since 2-3 weeks I can't wake up my iMac wireless anymore. I tried:
- restarting my Airport Extreme
- checked the things described on this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3774
- turn on iTunes library sharing
But this all doesn't seem to help. Am I overlooking something?
Could it have something to do with a recent software update (iTunes, Remote, ...)?

I was just commenting to someone the other day about the lack of porn that uses i-devices as props. One would think that iphone porn would do well.
there's plenty of computer porn out there, you have just been looking in the wrong places ;)

I can make out "The Future"
Maybe its saying "The future is here"?
EDIT: No it actually looks like "The Future is calling"

Bloomberg claims sources close to the negotiations say an agreement between Apple and labels will be reached before the middle of the year.
The reports said, “A deal would provide iTunes customers with a permanent backup of music purchases if the originals are damaged or lost […] The move would be a step closer to universal access to content centrally stored on the internet."
Both 7digital and eMusic are among the digital music sites that currently allow users to re-download tracks they have already paid for.
This can only be a good thing. I shall certainly consider downloading more from iTunes in the future than buying CD's if Apple are successful.

I think you need to own the product you want to sell before you sell it here.
Very true.
To the OP, please refer to the following thread (http://guides.macrumors.com/Help:Marketplace_Rules#General_Rules):
General Rules
Ownership. The Marketplace is for personal sales/trades of items owned by the members involved. You may not buy, sell, or trade on behalf of others. You must be in physical possession of any items offered for sale at the time they are offered.
That said, the item is currently listed as a "feeler" - I guess the seller is trying to gauge interest and value of said item.

Spend 20 seconds looking at MacRumors forums and you'll find dozens valueless, off-topics posts that don't get deleted. Please don't hide behind that.
Ha ha. I think I just got accused of being trollish for pointing out something that Arn says ought to be disclosed anyway. This is rich.

You don't want to put an alias to your links folder on dropbox, you need to actually put your links in that folder and link to them there. This way you can really be linked to the same files as everyone else.

Jessica,
Why do you say "...shame on you for calling it 'borderline discrimination'?"
discriminate: to make a distinction in favor of or against a person or thing on the basis of the group, class, or category to which the person or thing belongs rather than according to actual merit; show partiality
Sounds somewhat accurate to me.

Thanks for the tips so far. After reading that the Performa 6290cd was one of the worst Macs ever made, I immediately bought one !! Not here yet, but if operational, I'll use it to test the software. If successful, I'll know that powerpc models aren't out of the question and maybe grab a few old, inexpensive Macs to toy with this project.
Yup. They sure were. Bad ROM/Cache Dimm, EMI Clips that scratch the logic board, the 5200 had a brittle RGB cable, CommSlot cards with no "hook", LC-PDS slot problems, Power Supplies that die or go BANG etc etc.... :mad:
Being mostly from the Windows world, tearing this thing apart will be fun.
I'd suggest getting a take apart for it. I've seen plenty of people all but destroy the case trying to get in. :D
Do a Google for:
6200 6300 pdf performa
I found a guy selling internal scsi burners for Macs. From Apple docs, it appears I can lift the case and replace the internal cd-rom drive with one of these burners. Any tips on those- brands etc that may work with the old Macs?
Also, am I right that I should be looking for Toast 4 to possibly burn backups to cd if the burner works ? Old versions of Toast seem very hard to find.
There is a small grey plug that fits the burner which then slides into a socket inside the chassis. Some burners' SCSI interface isn't aligned the same but I have no way of knowing which will work. Apple predominantly used Panasonic/Matsushita & Sony CDROM drives. You may have trouble with the size of the tray nose. Toast 4 updated to 4.1.3 or Toast 5 updated to 5.2.x should be perfect. Try to get Toast Deluxe (v4) or Toast 5 Titanium as they are full uncrippled versions.
This 6290cd is loaded with about every card option Apple had at the time and I know this thing was aimed at the Sears crowd etc. This one even appears to have the dedicated vga option as well as the standard Apple display type connector. Owner says os 9 is on it but the restore cd will be 7.6 or 7.5. Think I'll start with an immediate restore to that. Any opinions on how this model handles os 8? By the way, it has a gigantic 48mb of ram (ha ha)
With 72pin RAM they are slow. OS 8 will be horrible. The 5400/6400 improved on that with FPM DIMMs. Update the 7.5.x to 7.5.5.
If at all possible, use DriveSetup 1.7.3 (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58303) to re-format the drive. The 5200/6200 used an on-board IDE driver initially and if you use the original DriveSetup, there will be no driver partition on the drive and could have trouble mounting the bare drive in other systems if ever required. A newer IDE drive can assist with the overall speed, but don't go nuts on capacity. 40GB drives work IIRC.
Good luck! :eek:

I have an old iBook G3 (500Mhz 576MB RAM 10GB HD) that isn't so useful to me now... but someone mentioned I might be able to make use of it and set it up as a file server... It has firewire, which I realized is a big plus.. none of my PCs have it...
Well, down to business... I have a external eSATA/FireWire Terabyte HD and was planning on hooking it up to the iBook, and hooking that up to my airport extreme. I have heard of some people who have reservations about leaving a laptop on 24/7... but really, the laptop won't be doing much, the HD on the laptop will only be used for the OS (would it cause any problems if the laptop's HD isn't that reliable? it'll only be used to boot). The iBook will pretty much be just a router... to connect, and manage access to the external drive. That's essentially all it's gonna do. Does anyone have any experience in this area?

@AlphaDogg - OF COURSE they could see the logic board corrosion when they went to replace the inverter board and the display. The logic board is the MAIN component in the machine and manages the display, among other things. They have to detach the display cables from the logic board before they start replacing any other components.
I have taken apart that MacBook soo many times since they found the water damage. The display cable is on TOP of the logic board, not on the bottom. This means that the logic board doesn't need to me removed. The inverter board is in the hinge cover, which still doesn't require for the logic board to be removed.

The desktop space is a small issue, solvable, but not pretty...
So, no one thinks the additional 150ish pixels of height is worth it, then?? (for the 23")
No question that for landscape oriented photos, the dual is great. (Assuming I do not have to 50%-50% the screens photo/tools. It's the height in portrait photos that drives me nuts on my current iMac17"...
If you go with Dell's 20" displays, or VESA mount your ACDs, you can rotate them to work on portraits. Works great. Then you have 1680 pixels high. (:

You might consider an OWC enclosure. (macsales.com) I just got one of their 2-drive RAID enclosures and I really like it. The fan is pretty loud when it's running but I use it for media file backup so I only have it turned on when I'm actually using it so it doesn't bother me.

When forum members are banned from the site for a period of 1-30 days, occasionally longer, they receive a timeout title on their profile for everyone to see. Some consideration could � and in my view, should � be given to ending this practice because:
1. It's been clearly shown to provide amusement and gossip � even public gloating � to others who take pleasure seeing it imposed on others.
2. It stands in direct contradiction of this sentiment:
Forum discipline is handled privately.
3. Because the offending action which places people in timeout is almost always removed, it therefore serves little purpose in making examples of forum members and in reminding others how to follow forum rules.
The only useful indication that comes to mind from making this status public is the inability to receive and send PMs to those in timeout, but those who might miss their friends would presumably have other way of staying in touch, especially with the proliferation of channels and other forms of networking.
Questioning some assumptions, is this a big problem? No, but it's worth thinking over. Would its removal be an entirely bad thing? I don't think so... it may even prevent the buildup of resentment on the part of those who may have something to offer down the line.
