Can I get my Laserwriter Select 360 to work on my intel iMac?

I have a new Intel iMac running 10.4.8. I want to use my Apple Laserwriter Select 360 with the iMac connecting via an Ethernet to Local Talk bridge (Assantetalk) via my net gear router. The driver comes up in the printer list, but it comes up with an error -50 and won't select?
Is this possible to get working?
thanks

It doesn't look like appletalk is an option when I go to network preference configurations- just Bluetooth,Built-in Ethernet, Built-in Firewire and Airport. The Apple Laserwriter Select is very old with an appletalk connection. Does the Imac have a port for that kind of connection?

I can't get the patch select buttons to work in edit mode.

I can't get the patch select buttons to work in edit mode. When I select any template, the set buttons or the patch buttons don't work at all. My up and down arrows work fine but I need the on screen buttons to be assigned to my footswitch.

In edit mode, at concert level, select the pedal. Then in the screen control inspector, in the mappings tab, select actions>next patch.

How Can I Get Group By Select Statement To WorK?

How can I get Code2 to work correctly? Code1 works fine. A user enters the customer and a date range on a form and submits request. I get error message in Dreamweaver. You tried to execute a query where the specified expression field3 is not part of an aggragate function I set the Form variables to: Name Default Value RunTime Value Search_Criteria 1 Request.Form("Search") Date1 1 Request.Form("Date1") Date2 1 Request.Form("Date2") Code1. This works fine SELECT Field3, Field10, SUM(Field16) as SumofField16 FROM CustomerHistory_CP WHERE Field3 LIKE '%Search_Criteria%' AND Field6 >= #1/2/09# AND Field6 <= #1/30/09# GROUP BY Field3, Field10 Code2. I get error message SELECT Field3, Field10, SUM(Field16) as SumofField16 FROM CustomerHistory_CP WHERE Field3 LIKE '%Search_Criteria%' AND Field6 >= #Date1# AND Field6 <= #Date2# GROUP BY Field3, Field10

That requires you to enter the configuration correctly. You can find out the configuration for your email from your ISPs website in most cases. Or if you're using Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail you need only Google something like:
"Gmail configuration for Apple Mail" or "Hotmail configuration for Apple Mail" (without the quotes).
That should get you started..

Can't get my 23" vintage CD to work with my new iMac

Hi,
I have a similar problem to: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2002962?start=0&tstart=0
I have a 23" Cinema Display (late 2005 model but bought in 2007). I want to have a 2nd display on my new 27" iMac (mid 2011).
I hooked it up using a mini-DVI to mini-Display port. Changed resolution to 1920x1200 -- did not help. In the "About" and the Display perferences, my iMac sees the cinema display, but no picture. The display has the LED light on (continuously no flashing). I keep holding the brightness + button.. doesn't help.
Please help!
Do I need more power? Got this idea from this semi-related thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2086442?start=75&tstart=0
Any help is appreciated!
thanks,

I'm an idiot.. I bought a faulty miniDisplayport to DVI cable. Only was able to tell because after fidgeting with it day after day, I finally saw a flicker!
new cable and now it works
cheers

Can't find a printer driver for LaserWriter Select 360?

My older G4, which I just upgraded from OS 9.2 to OS X10.3.9 (I was reluctant to leave PageMaker), doesn't have a printer driver for my Apple LaserWriter Select 360. It finds my Epson 2200 with no problems. I've tried two shareware programs. The first seemed to say that Apple Printer Drivers were missing and that it had reinstalled them (but I don't remember the name. I found it in one of the threads here). But there was no sign of the LaserWriter when I tried to print. The second program I tried was Pacifist, figuring I could just reinstall that one printer driver from the Panther disks. But I couldn't see it anywhere though there was two Epsons, Hewlitt Packard and others. I tried the Apple website, but had no luck. I know there is one because two other computers we have in OS Xs can recognize the printer. Is there a driver out there I can download or is there someway I can get it off the other computer I have that is in 10.3.9? It's really frustrating to have to transfer the regular stuff I want to print to another computer.
Thanks!! Jane
G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

We're halfway there...maybe! The printer shows up on the list, but when I try to print something (I tried an InDesign file, also a Word one), the computer sends the file and the printer starts, but then puts the job on hold (the green light on the printer never blinks). If I click Start Job, the same thing happens again.
When I looked at Help and found "Setting up to print to an IP Printing network printer," it said to "type the IP address or DNS name for the printer in the Printer Address field." I looked through my "User's Guide" and didn't know what that was. It wouldn't let me "ADD" the printer without one so first I typed in the whole name of the printer that was on the list below. Then it let me ADD, but not print. Then I tried it again with the word "home." Same thing, it added the printer but wouldn't let me print.
One other question I had was when I got to the Add Printer, IP Printing, I had to choose a "Printer Type." It was on LPD/LPR so I left it. I didn't know what any of the choices meant. Perhaps that was wrong.
Now that the LaserWriter is on the list, can we make it print?
Thanks so much, Jane

Apple LaserWriter Select 360 and OSX 5.1.2 upgrade

My LaserWriter 360 has performed perfectly from Tiger to Leopard 5.1. After upgrading to 5.1.2 it would NOT print. The LaserWriter is connected to the computer with a Ethernet cable into an Asante box,and then into the printer. This has never failed for over 6 years and since OS X came out. The Apple LaserWriter 360 driver DOES exist in print driver lists in the Library. I Archived and Installed back to the OSX 5.1 version hoping that might fix my problem but it did not.
I have gone into "Network" and "Printer Fax" — tried everything with no success. I hate to part with this printer as it performs great when it was working before the 5.1.2 upgrade. Any suggestions?

Help! Apple advised me that there are very smart people here, smarter than they, who might be able to help me. I'm having the same problem getting my MacBook OS 10.5 to work (at all) with my Laserwriter Select 360. It is not supported (7 years) by Apple. It worked wirelessly when I first set up borrowing the driver from my Ibook. My household uses 3 ibooks with great success including the one I hoped to replace with my MacBook. After 5 months, and trying various solutions posted here, by some fluke it printed once yesterday.
Can anyone tell me where I can get a driver that will work wirelessly with my airport? Apple said I have a Guttenberg (?) default in the OS software, which is not visible in the printer library, but can only be plugged directly into the MacBook via an adapter. This would mean the rest of the Mac users in my home (Ibooks) would not have access to that port and I want to be wireless. I've read many happy reports here and hope someone very wise can help me. Apple says this printer never worked wirelessly. Somehow I completed all of my graduate education using it wirelessly so I have hope that someone here can help. I look forward to hearing from you and appreciate the time you've taken to read this request. Best wishes to all! Kim

Running a Mac G3, having been using a Laserwriter Select 360, but it and two others are now dead. What is the next best or better printer to use?

I am running a desktop beige Mac G3 and have been using a Laserwriter Select 360, but it an two others are now dead.
What is an equal or better printer to use with the Mac?

Hey, BD, I looked at Brothers last night in connection to this questiona and it looks like their newest/current laser print-only units go back to 10.4 but no further.
Brother is the best hope but the OP may need to look for an older model still in stock. For example, for our older Brother HL5250DN, they still show OS9 drivers:
http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/download_top.html?r eg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=hl5250dn_all
Gary, web-check for stores that still have older models on teh shelf. You can also look at "newer-but-not-new" and then use the Brother site to check for OS9 drivers.
Founds some of my model on eBay:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Brother+HL-5250DN
We paid US$199 for ours new about seven years ago. It's been a real workhorse and trouble-free. Well, except for the time my wife tried to feed it a odd paper stock that was not on the printer's official diet!
A Beige G3 consideration: The Big Beige doesn't come with USB ports. You must add a PCI USB adaptor card, and the ones that worked in the Beige are harder to find today.
However, the Beige has built-in ethernet so if you get a printer with an ethernet connector, you will be in bisiness with neither the expense of an extra adaptor card nor the occasional buttheadedness of USB printing. The "N" in our Brother model designates it as a network printer so it has an ethernet port. Many others do also.

Not connecting to laserwriter select 360

Hello,
I work between two printers. One is an Epsom color printer, the other is my trusty old Laserwriter Select 360. Suddenly the Laserwriter is not connecting. I connect through an Asante box and up until two days ago, everything worked.
I have tried the trick of disconnecting the Asante and then re-connecting, etc., but still I have no connection to the Apple printer.
Can you suggest anything?
Thanks!
Jim G.

Jim,
When was the last time you turned off the power to every component all at once and made a clean start? Try it and see if things reset or reload.
Next, have you tried removing the printer using system preferences and then adding it back in? We just added an older HP laser printer to our ethernet LAN but the printer had Appletalk turned off at its end. That was a menu option on the printer. Apple simplifies controls at the printer end on their brand of the same or similar printer style by giving you fewer controls. Wait. They give you none! While HP laser printers have extensive menu option controls on the printer itself, with most Apple printers the reset has to come from a service dip switch, a momentary reset like a CUDA switch on a motherboard or from a power off technique.
So, pull the plug, give it a minute or two to dissipate any charge in capacitors and then reconnect power. While that may sound like hokus pokus magic, that is related to another power discharge instruction for how to revive 'dead' monitors. Give it a try. Can't hurt and costs nothing.
Without special testing, you do not know precisely what changed from the printer working one day and not the next. So, try a reset.
The other response offers a good way to see if there is any traffic on the ethernet cable as evidenced by blinking LED traffic lights. Isolating each component is helpful and easier if you have more than one of something to test with as well.
Just some random thoughts to get you started.
Jim

I was out of town for a few days. I had no issue installing the driver on Mountain Lion (10.8.2). What specifically happens when you try to install?
If you get this message:

How can I get my magazines from newsstand(on my iPhone) onto my iMac??? Help me pleease

HI..
The apps used on an iPhone run on the iOS system. Your Mac runs on the Mac OS X.
Two different operating systems, hence you can't run apps that run on your iPhone on your iMac and vice versa.
