Can PowerBook G4 with Mac OS 10.4.11 enable printing with iPhone iOS 6.0

I have a PowerBook G4 running Mac OS 10.4.11 (PPC). I have 3 printers on a network linked either as USB printers or as WiFi peripherals: HP Color LaserJet 2840, HP DeskJet 940c, Samsung ML-1210. I would like to enable AirPrint for iPad, iPhone 6.0 in this network system. Printopia nor FingerPrint will run on PPC machines and neither function on 10.4.11. I tried to use the solution in Simon Blog but no printers are recognized by the iPad nor iPhone. Any ideas anyone?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Follow up: I confirmed that Pacifist will extract and install the package on a PowerBook G4 running OS X 10.4.11.
Package extraction and installation:
Once you download and install Pacifist, launch Pacifist, locate the AirPrint-1.0.pkg file and open it.
Click the "reveal triangles" at the left to show all the package's contents.
Select the "AirPrint" icon, then click Install. Ensure the "Use Administrator Privileges" box is checked and select Install. Authenticate with your Administrator name and password.
Repeat for "ca.mlabs.airprint.plist" and "printers.plist".
You may then quit Pacifist.
"mLabs AirPrint" installation:
Follow the instructions in the developer's website. Under "Setup" make sure you do not copy the $ prompt, in other words copy and paste the following in a Terminal window:
/usr/local/bin/airprint/AirPrint config
and press Return.
The program will present a list of your installed printers.
The same general technique is used for removing printers.
Uninstalling the program:
First stop the service with the following Terminal command:
sudo launchctl unload /LibraryLaunchDaemons/ca.mlabs.airprint.plist
Authenticate when prompted.
Then delete the following files, in the Finder, by first opening the folders using the Finder's Go > "Go to Folder..." menu.
/usr/local/bin/airprint/AirPrint
/usr/local/bin/airprint/printers.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/ca.mlabs.airprint.plist
Who can't like a program that's only 24k in size though
That's where I left off for now - next step is to verify it actually works with an iPad. Let me know if you are successful.

Hello to all my readers.I am still using my Apple G4 1.25 Ghz MDD running Leopard 10.5.8 with iTunes 10.6.3 installed. Can I use an Phone 4s with iOS 5 with this set up? I have read the iPhone iOS 5 user guide and it appears that I can but is anybody actually doing it ? My current phone is a £10 Nokia and I've neither wish nor cash to spend more than a grand upgrading to an intel based machine (at the moment) ! Regards to you all.

If you can find an iPhone running iOS5 and those are the specs for iOS5, there is no reason it should not work.
If you want a more current version of iOS or a more current device, a Windows computer is always an option at significantly less cost.
Granted, there is no requirement to have a computer to use an iPhone.

HT3500 how can i connect my macbook pro wirelessly to an hp printer with a asus rt 66acr router?

how can i connect my macbook pro wirelessly to an hp printer with a asus rt 66acr router?

Firstly, the HP printer must be connected to the ASUS' network. Then, simply connect your MBP to the network and your printer should be addable in Print & Fax in System Preferences.

Apex with XE10g/Tomcat 6.0.13 PDF Print with Apex FOP.WAR

Apex with XE10g/Tomcat 6.0.13 PDF Print with Apex fop.war/apex_fop.jsp
Hello,
Excuse me bad english.
I have a problem with Oracle XE and Printing from Reports over Tomcat 6.0.13.
I have update Oracle XE with Apex 3.1 and it works fine.
Now i have tried to Print a report to PDF. So i have deployed the FOP.WAR from Apex Utilities under Tomcat.
I see in Tomcat Manager http://localhost:8888/manager/html/list that the FOO
has been deployed and is running.
If i try to print then i get this Message down to this page.
Can anybody give me a hint to solve this problem???
Hint
To resolve the problem i have installed Oracle OC4J with same Port and deployed
the same foo.war file.
Then works and all printing from Oracle Apex work fine and okay.
So i thing the Apex and Oracle work correct.
But we have a small Application so i would prefer to work with Tomcat a application Server.
Becaus of previous Errors have copied some *.jar files to C:\tomcat6.0.13\lib
but i thing this is not the Problem.

Can I use a mac pro early 2008 w/10.6 with pro tools 9 Native,

thinking of ditching pc for a mac but all my research is telling me, rather than a late model mac pro upgradeable to mavericks (not tested for pro tools), my ideal setup would be an early 2008, mac pro with 10.6. currently using a lenovo desktop with 3 motu 2408 and the 424 pcie card with pro tools 9 native and reaper 4.57. works for me but since tasting mac I would like to explore the possibilties further. i had the opportunity to set up a system for a friend who purchased an imac 21" a presonus 24.4.2, and pro tools 10 he's using half the ram I have, but his system works like a beast! I;m not the imac type so, I feel a mac pro will help me expand my power base greatly and advice on mac pro options is appreceiated....

As you know, there is no 10.6.8 disk, but one can clone 10.6.8 into a late 2011 MBP (from an external HDD). Niel mentions a 2012 model, you are the one who speaks of 2011 MBPs. That is why I directed the comment to you.

Connecting iMac with Mac OS X Tiger to an HPC with Windows CE via modem

Hi,
I have an iMac G3 DV 400MHZ with Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.6 and a Compaq C140 HPC with Windows CE 1.0. I dont have the original serial cable for the device and therefore cant connect it to my iMac (like its Mac compatible anyway!) I want to connect it to my iMac via modems (no not ethernet modems the antique modems with the phone wires!) so I can transfer files to it. In case you have never heard of an HPC or Windows CE (which is real similar to Windows 95) lets pretend Im trying to connect a Windows 95 PC to my iMac for file transfer and see if that works.
Thanks

Try posting this under hardware section, you will get more response there. I doubt anyone here can help with that.

I am purchasing an Imac and used to use Windows Vista. I have a HP Color Laserjet 2840 and need to know if it's compatible with Mac OSX? If not, what printer is?

Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
MB427Z/A Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
MB576Z/A Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
MB021Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)
MB022Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (5-user family pack)

After you install the base 10.5, download & install the 10.5.8 combo update at http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
The DVD should look like this
Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.

I can't get my mac book pro (snow leopard) to work with my epson printer (stylus photo px720)

How can I get my mac to pop up an alert when my iPhone is ringing?

Back when I had an old Sony brick cell phone, I used Salling Clicker to interface with my Mac. One of the coolest features of this software was that anytime someone called me, and my phone was within bluetooth range of my mac, the volume on my mac would slightly lower, it would ring like a telephone, and the number of the caller would be displayed on the computer screen. How can I do this with my iPhone 3G?

There are a million things people think it would have been a no-brainer for Apple to build in, and they didn't (yet? They've added a bunch since the original phone). Send feedback or call AppleCare/Genius Bar, so that the desire get tracked and presumably flows into Apple's decision-making process at whatever (apparently very) minor weight Apple accords to popular demand.
I don't think AirMouse pops up those app-switching bezels--a regular command-tab does as well.
For notifications on your mac via wifi--I think you would need an app on the iPhone that notices the incoming call, and then sends a message to an app that is running in the background on your mac, that then pops up a notification. Interesting idea. At present, though, I don't think Apple would allow that either---the iPhone part of the system would need to run in the background, and Apple only opened up certain limited functions that third-party apps are allowed to run in the background.
Something about the notion of a third-party app launching an independent action when a call comes in strikes me as having security implications which Apple has been very wary about. My sense is that when apps save state and suspend/quit immediately when a call comes in, it's more like being taken over by the iOS, not acting on their own, though I'm not a developer, so I don't know.
Bluetooth would work better---Apple started with headphone support for BT, just added keyboard support with iOS 4 IIRC, and maybe will open up more features in the future.
This is a trade-off of the iPhone---Apple keeps it secure, elegant, and easy to use (more or less) but there are limitations that go with that.

I'm having issues with mac os x 10.7.4 compatibility with audio 4 dj...any one as the same problem?

There's any one that can help me with this issue?

I figured out a solution that works you must disable Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) on the affected system. To do this :
    Open Keychain Access. Keychain Access can be found by selecting Go in the Finder and choosing the Utilities option. Keychain access should be listed in the folder that appears. Double-click the Keychain Access icon to open it.
    Select Keychain Access -> Preferences from the menu at the top of the screen
    Choose the Certificates tab
    Change the OCSP option from Best Effort to Off
    Close the Preferences dialog and quit Keychain Access
    You should be able to NAC now

Macbook Air with Mac OS X Address book not syncing with iPhone 5s completely

I have just started ICloud syncing of my macbook air address book and my iphone. Some seemingly random contacts are not being transferred down to the iphone. I can't figure this out. How do you make this work correctly?

First of all, your post title refers to an iPhone 5S. There is no such device being sold by Apple.
Aside from that, it sounds like your contacts are in more than one account on your Mac. In Contacts on your Mac, you might try clicking the button closest to the plus side in the lower left of the display to hopefully show your various accounts. You might also check Contacts > Preferences > Accounts.

Problem with mac mini crashing and a folder icon with ?

I have a mac mini i5 and its been playing up. Randomly it will get the multicoloured spinning wheel and crash, the screen will flick on and off and then I get a white screen with a folder and a ? inside it. Anyone got any answers or solutions?

Maybe:
A flashing question mark or globe appears when you start your Mac - Apple Support
Also note the time of the crash and upon rebooting open the Console app in the Finder>Applications>Utilities folder and look for suspicious log entries at that time and post them here

Wireless network with 2 computers and an HP J4680 printer with Connection problem

I have two computers. Each of them has been connected to the HP Officejet J4680. I can "ping" the printer from both computers and get a response. I can print documents to the printer from one computer (A), but not the other (B). Each computer is using the same IP address and Port 192.168.1.3 HP_192.168.1.3_CN95L981CS052X for the wireless printer.
Today I learned that if both computers are turned on, I can print from computer B, using the printer's profile stored in computer A.
I have reinstalled the printer driver numerous times. I have reconnect the printer to the network. The troubleshooter software provided by HP was not able to determine why computer B will not recognize the wireless printer.
I do not want to always have both computers on to print to the wireless printer.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Sounds like this could be an issue with the software. To start I want to be sure that we remove the software fully and correcty before we continue. Follow the instructions below and see what happens after.
First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it (this is important). Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer.
In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it.
find and install the FULL FEATURE SOFTWARE if it is available :
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3692888
Install that and let me know the result!
