Networking G5 System x to iMac system 9.2

I just purchased a G5 system X.
I have a G3 system 8.6 and an iMac system 9.22 and a second iMac system 9.22
All are connected by ethernet and all have static IP addresses on DSL line.
My G5 can connect only to the "second" iMac system 9.22.......all other computers show a failed afp.......
What is happening?
I have had Macs since 1984. I want to be able to share older files on older machines.

Apple changed quite a few things in AFP, beginning with MacOS 9.x
Take a look here for some tips and links with good info:

some Macs running 9.x, some Macs running 10.4.x and some serious SGI workstations running Irix 6.5.x

HT3231 transfer files to my new iMac system 10.8.3, 9 pin firewire. Apple sold me FireWire 9-6 with a Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter. This will not work, do i need a different cable?

I have a G4 with system 10.4.11 and a 6 pin firewire trying to transfer files to my new iMac system 10.8.3, 9 pin firewire. Apple sold me FireWire 9-6 with a Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter. This will not work, do i need a different cable?

Apple Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter
Then it sounds like the FW800 to 400 adapter just gets in the way. You don't have FW800 case? on my MDD G4 I added and used FW800 controller and cases from OWC and Sonnet.

Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail.

Hi
I got an e-mail stating that Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail, and that mine was one that may fail and to book an appointment with Genius to click here. So after making an appointment we then took out iMac to the shop affixing thirty minuets before appointment time and had to Waite until 12-45hrs. When we were told that we would have to leave the Mac with them for two to three days to replace the hard drive.
Can anyone advise, is this normal to make an appointment only to find that when you get to the Genius department in the Apple shop they then say because of the amount of iMacs that have come in today it will take days to replace?

Hi mende1
Thanks for replying but when anyone makes an appointment surely the work should be carried out then not to be told to come back days later especially when you have traveled over one hundred and fifty miles to get to the shops. It may have been a free replacement but the cost of petrol for the journey comes to more than one hundred euros.

New IMac system on the way

Hey all,
So I just ordered a new IMac system... Refurbished 27" IMac 3.4Ghz quad-core with i7, 8GB memory, 1TB Fusion Drive, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX with 2GB.
I decided to go with the 1TB Fusion drive to run along side my new Lacie 2Big 4TB Thunderbolt Raid HD. I'm pretty psyched on the new setup as it's my first IMac. I'm a artist working in photograpy, video and design. I do lots of editing and annimation in After Effects and Photoshop. I currently edit all my work in Premire CS6. In terms of the Lacie drive... I wanted some advice and input on setting it up and partioning the drive for multiple media. In terms of the Fusion drive, I wanted to run the applications and OS on the SSD. What's the best way to setup my 4TB Raid HD? I was thinking of taking 1 TB and using it for time machine. The other three I wanted for media and project files. What are some of your setups? If you don't mind sharing of course.
Many Thanks

I have got a 21'5-inch iMac with a 870 GB partition for OS X and a 130 GB partition for Windows, and my LaCie external drive has got a 830 GB partition for Time Machine and 170 GB for files.
At the moment, this configuration works without any problem, and the configuration you want will work correctly. Also, this iMac won't give you any problem by using those apps.
Respecting to Fusion Drive, note that OS X will put your apps wherever it wants, so most used apps will be in the SSD and other applications will be in the HDD

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. If you've recently plugged anything into the audio-out (headphone) port, plug and unplug it a couple of times.
2. From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Sound ▹ Output
Check the settings. The internal speakers should be selected as the output device, the Mute box should not be checked, and the volume slider should be at least halfway to the right.
3. Look inside the headphone port. If a red light is coming from the port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a headphone mini-stereo jack of the proper size.Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
4. Boot in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime. It will take much longer than usual. You don't have to log in; just reboot as usual (without holding any keys) when the login screen appears. (Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.)
5. Reset the NVRAM.
6. Reset the SMC.
7. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data as a precaution. You won't need your backup unless something goes wrong.
8. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

Hello, let's see if this old cure still works...
To stop the pop-up, Go to System Preferences: Security. Check the box next to "Require password to unlock each secure system preference." Then lock Security.

Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
      left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
        the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
      the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.

Very sorry it took so long to get back, I have tiger,leopard,snow leopard and lion still on the machine although i can't seem to find exactly where. I am sure that I don't need them all and they are just taking up disc space as it where. I thought that it would be good to clear some out but it is never a good idea to delete OS's when you are not sure what you are doing. thanks

I use my PS CS5 on an IMac system Lion and I must work during my holidays on a powerbook G4 system Tiger. Is it possible ?

Is it possible to install my PS CS5 on a powerbook G4 system Tiger. I work usually on an Imac system Lion but I can carry it during my holidays.

I don't think photoshop cs5 will work on tiger plus you say G4, so does that mean it's a PowerPC machine?

If you had a version of photoshop that would run on both, then yes, adobe allows one to install photoshop on two of your own computers.

System preferences in iMac for sound output shows only headphones. How do I change this to get sound through computer? Thanks.

In sound System preferences on iMac headphones is only option for sound output. How do I change this to get sound output through computer, as in a video etc. Thanks.

There is a switch in the jack that may be stuck. Try plugging and unplugging a headset plug into the socket a few times.
You might try dipping the headset plug into some pure alcohol, wiping it nearly dry, and repeating the process to clean/clear the socket.

Will I have the ability to continue to edit my video from a Canon MV430i camcorder if I update the operating system on my iMac to OS10:5 Leopard?

Will I have the ability to continue to edit my video from a Canon MV430i camcorder if I update the operating system on my iMac to OS10:5 Leopard?

No you won't, iMovie 6 will continue to work, and having two or more versions of iMovie should not be a problem.

TS4083 The Icloud mail can take 5-10 seconds to open..why is it so slow when all the other emial systems on my Imac are almost instand?

New mail or sent mail takes a long time to open..all other e-mail systems on my IMac are almost instant access.
Why would this be....it occurrs only on my Imac niot my Iphone or Ipad.
Got any ideas why?

I run very few or no extensions with the exception of Java and Flash. I never, '''NEVER''' use stupid toolbars. The problem with FireFox on OS X Lion seems to be related to the OS. The speed of my Internet connection never changed and it continues to be fast for all of my computers, both Mac and Windoze 7.
If you change your default DNS on the Mac to something like the IP address of the Google DNS servers, FireFox and Chrome will run at normal speeds. If anyone needs help with this, please post another message and I will post instructions.
