Connect OS 9 G4 to an iMac with 10.6

Hi
I want to connect a G4 Mac running 9.1 to a new iMac running 10.6, using ethernet- will this work?
I would like to know before I buy.
Thanks.

Click here for information. If the G4 isn't the original PCI Graphics Power Mac G4, using FireWire Target Disk mode may be faster and easier.

    “Which Firewire cable should I purchase to connect a late 2006 Intel-based iMac with a 400 port to a Mid 2010 IMac with an 800 port?”

    To connect both iMacs, you need a FireWire 400 to 800 adapter, and a FireWire 400 cable, so you will be able to connect both Macs

  • Can I connect old Time Capsule to new iMac with Ethernet?

    I recently purchased a new iMac, and I am trying to use a 2008 Time Capsule for back-up.  I successfully used the Time Capsule for back-up with a MacBook for the last four years, but the iMac's Time Machine won't recognize the Time Capsule as a back-up device.  I have the two devices directly connected with an Ethernet cable, and no longer use the Time Capsule for MacBook back-up.  I have rebooted the iMac and Time Capsule multiple times, but the Time Capsule light still flashes amber.  Help?

    Press and hold the reset for 10sec.
    Make sure the ethernet is set to auto and does actually get an IP address from the TC.
    Turn off all other network connections.
    Download and install 5.6 airport utility if you are still on Lion.. it will give you far more useful info and actual tools not toys like the Lion version.

    Hi Gilly,
    I have no proof, but I think it will not work with an adapter, only Mini Display Port or Thunderbolt.

  • How to connect Digital Optical Audio output iMac with Receiver Input

    I have connected iMac with onkyo hts-3300 home theater system receiver through optical audio TosLink Cable.( http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Optical-Audio-TosLink-Cable/dp/B001ZU3G2I/ref=sr12?ie=UTF8&qid=1292865309&sr=8-2 ). Unfortunately there is no sound coming out from the Home theater system. I have verified the Receiver optical input is working fine by connecting with my TV optical audio digital out put and the it's working great. The only difference between TV and iMac is, on my TV, it has optical audio digital output and I can use this cable (http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-A102-02M-Digital-connectors/dp/B0002WPREU/ref=s r11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1297320792&sr=1-1) to make it work. I can also verified my optical audio TosLink Cable working because I can see the red light coming out from the cable. So the only problem could be from iMac. I doubt I need to change the additional setting to configure iMac to use external optical audio setting instead of the buit in audio setting. Hoe can I able to do it? or my iMac(IMAC 21.5"/3.06/2X2GB/500GB/9400M-ITP
    MB950ZP/A) doesn't support optical digital audio out put? I have follow this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12769423&#12769423 and to my surprise which doesn't work out for me. I doubt that i need to change some setting, but when I got to setting>> sound I cannot change any setting. I was quite depressed aldy. Can someone answer my question as i m a newbie here. Thanks a lot

    @Király : May i know how to Open Audio Midi Setup? Is this Audio Midi Setup is in the locatated in the Setting in Mac Snow Leapord OS? or how to locate this "Audio Midi Setup " in Mac enviroment. Is it possible to open this Audio Midi Setup in windows 7 enviroment also? I Just want to get the audio from my iMac in Hts-3300 onkyo home theatre. YOur help is much appreciated
    @rkaufmann87 : Thank you very much for your sharing about this http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/ connection. for me what i understand is the digital audio output in airportexpress is the same as the audio out put in iMac in terms of details sepcs. So this airportexpress will only help you connect wirelessly to home theatre system, rather than waired connection. Other than that nothig much difference. So there is no point for me to spend extra bucks to attain the wireless connection. Unless the airportexpress have optical digital input, which i believe not. Correct me if I m worng, thanks

  • Help! Syncmaster 1100 blurry when connected to Imac with Mini DVI to Vga

    Hi,
    I recently tried to use my Samsung SyncMaster 1100 (21") as a secondary display But when I connect it with the mini dvi to vga adapter to my imac the image looks blurry. Is there some compatibility isue with syncmaster 1100?
    Please Help!, I tryed the imac with a different secondary monitor and it works fine. I tested my syncmaster with another pc and it works fine. I don't know what else to do.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Josh,
    To start, it is considered extremely impolite to type in all capital letters as you have done. Please use all lower case, or preferably properly capitalised text, in future.
    With regards to the problem you're having.. the reason you only see the desktop background is due to screen spanning. If you want the external display to display the same thing as the internal display, go to the displays system preferences pane, and check the box that says "Mirroring"
    The color problem is probably due to a loose connection somewhere, either between the iMac and its adaptor, the adaptor and the cable to the projector, or between the projector and the cable plugging into it. If you're still having problems, try different adaptor cables, or try plugging it into a different monitor to try to work out which one is causing a problem.
    Good luck

  • My Apple TV drops out when my iMac isn't connected to wifi yet my TV is connected to wifi.  Also having issues with losing settings on Home Sharing as well.  How do I fix these issues?

    Whether I'm watching a movie purchased via my Apple TV or a movie stored on my iTunes app on my iMac I'm having constant issues with Apple TV either cutting out (randomly - not related to wifi) or not being able to access the 'My Computer' files when my iMac drops out the wifi connection because its in power saving mode.  I also have issues with 'Home Sharing' settings having to be reset and sometimes having to unplug the Apple TV power cord and plugging it back in to be able to successfully reset these settings so I can get back to watching whatever it was I was viewing on Apple TV.  My TV is connected to wifi as well so I'm wondering if there are any changes I can make in the settings of both my Apple TV and iMac or TV so that I can just select whatever it is I want to watch and be able to watch the entire movie or episode without it dropping out or having to keep flicking the mouse on the iMac to keep the computer connected to wifi?  I love Apple products generally but Apple TV is proving to be a pain in the a**e lately.  Hopefully someone can help me sort these issues out

    Intermittent issues will point to a local network/wifi issue.
    Reboot ATV and router, make sure both are up to date
    Try ethernet
    The home sharing connection will cut out if the iMac goes to sleep.

  • How can I connect Apple TV to iMac with ethernet

    AppleCare told me to plug the Apple TV into the iMac using ethernet to transfer the iTunes content faster with less glitches.  But how do I see the Apple TV screen on my iMac to configure it???  When I connect Apple TV using ethernet, nothing appears on the iMac screen.

    This only applies if you have a first generation Apple TV. Also I hope you have a router and are not connecting the ATV directly to the iMac.
    Usually I sync my First Generation Apple TV wirelessly, but sometimes I'll have some huge media files I want to sync on it which can take a long time. In those cases all you do is connect your Apple TV via ethernet cable to the same router your iMac is connected to. Don't worry about it not being connected to a tv because all you are going to do is SYNC your Apple TV. If you do not see your Apple TV in iTunes, turn off the Apple TV, and quit iTunes. Then turn on the Apple TV first, wait a minute and then start iTunes. Once iTunes sees the Apple TV, manage your content, then sync it.
    Once the Apple TV has completed its sync, quit iTunes. Unplug your Apple TV, and then put the device back by the TV you want to enjoy the content on.
    I have done such a thing a few times and it works flawlessly.

  • How can I stop my Imac with Mountain Lion from draining the wifi connections? It's connected to the router by wire and the wifi on the Imac is disabled.

    Okay so about 2 weeks ago, maybe less, my mom purchased a used IMac and then upgraded to Mountain Lion. Ever since she powered on the computer I haven't had the same capabilities on my PC laptop as I used to. Youtube takes forever for the videos to load and sometimes doesn't load at all. On skype when my friends send files it's estimated to take hours what should only take moments to download.
    Around the same time as when we got the IMac, I had also installed a laucher for a website that was required by my school in order to do my work. At first I thought that was what was causing the slow internet and I swiftly uninstalled it, but the problem still continued. Please I know there could be other reasons for the slow internet but I really want to explore this possibility. Please, I really want my internet back.
    Imploringly,
    Jessica

    No - Just needed a reboot. Surf safe.
    Step 5
    Consult the modem/router manual for changing wireless channel.

  • I have trouble getting my new Apple TV 2 to work to the internet. I have an Imac with OsX 10.6.8 using a 3G modem to connect to the internet. I have a Time Capsule with Airport. I can't get the Apple TV to see my internet connection

    I have an Imac with OSX 10.6.8 dual intel core.
    Apple TV 2
    Timecapsule
    3G modem connected to iMac for internet access.
    I have tied to get Apple TV2 to see the inernet but it does not seem to see the inernet connection either via the Airport network or even if I connect it directly with a ethernet cable to the Timecapsule or the iMac.
    I have tired to set up Home Sharing but it doen't see the Itunes Store so no go.
    I don't have wired internet but it is probably something to do with using a 3G modem
    Any tips on how I can check if the TV coonect to internet and what to do about this problem?
    I was trying to connect my HD TV earlier using a WiFi USB modem but it could not see my iMac. Apple Support told me to buy an Apple TV but that is not helping as I can't see anything there either.

    Thank you so much Paul_31 for your suggestions, HUGELY appreciate the effort
    I have reset the printing system, a few times for good measure but nadda.
    I have also looked at getting the software from the Apple site after seeing that with Snow Leopard you should let the operating system lead the install not the manufacteurers software as it is most likely out of date.  I too found it wasn't there so I uninstalled the software got up the CLX_3300 series stuff then went from there with the USB cable.  It apparently hasn't worked either
    Unfortunately now after using the print utility to scan for a while that has now gone again on the last restart of the Mac.  I am so completely clueless
    The box says the printer is compatible, the place of purchase said it was compatible, the Samsung site says it is compatible.
    I think it's the set up of my Mac? Our maybe a glitch in the network settings?
    Thanks again
