ESATA cars for Powerbooks - do they exist?

I've got two Lacie D2 Quadra drives (a v1 and a v2) and wondered if it was possible to take advantage of their eSATA connections using my Powerbook?
The only cards I've seen which might work are the LINDY 2-port CardBus adaptor;
http://www.lindy.co.uk/2-port-esata-adapter-cardbus/70996.html
and the AC Ryan ACR-SA50274 eSATA card;
http://www1.acryan.com/prodata/ACR-SA50274.shtml
Any opinions or experience on this?
Lindy say their software is Windows-only, but tbh so much Mac stuff is plug 'n' play, I thought we might not need the bundled software?
TIA

That's how I found my two contenders above - tbh I was hoping somebody had actually experienced success or failure first-hand using an eSATA card with their PB G4 Aluminium...

    first i was wondering what everyone thinks about macbooks compared to let's say another pc like hp,dell,etc.... i have been told that i'd have to be dumb to get a machine with windows vista on it,so that is why i have turned my focus to a macbook because i have heard they are pretty good and worth it...
    I personally like my MacBook better than any other computer I have ever owned. I like being able to use windows when I need to but not being tied to it. My wife bought an HP with Vista and it doesn't seem to bad. Lots of updates at least one a week. Mostly graphic card drivers update.
    also is it true that if you upgrade let's say the memory,hard drive,etc it won't be covered in the warranty/apple care plan??
    Only two things you can upgrade on a MacBook is the Hard drive and Memory. It will not void the warranty. This is apples word on it. DIY Warranty Info
    I would just like to ask for people's opinions please on purchasing one of these i am currently a senior in college and will be using it next year for grad school,need to replace the one i currently have...
    Be sure you can live with the graphics. If you do a lot of graphics work you might want to consider the MacBook Pro. I use my MacBook for video editing using Final Cut Express HD and it works well. The MB is also not very good for gaming if you are into that. The integrated chip set doesn't work well with 3D games.
    also any other ideas on getting iwork or office, a hard plastic case or a skin,thanks alot for anyone's input it is greatly appreciated.... i am looking to get one once leopard comes out thanks!!
    Depending on your school may be a factor in what you choose. I use iWork and it is pretty good. You could also try NeoOffice or Open Office. They are good also. Office is supposed to be coming out with a new Mac version but not sure yet how it will work.
    Be sure to ask for the student discount when you purchase the computer and software. It adds up.

  • Apple Care for Powerbook

    Hello folks.
    I think I may have messed up big time. I purchased my powerbook back in Sept, along with the apple care. Now, I assumed the apple care box simply had info explaining apple care, so I didn't even open it. I shelved it and left it at that, thinking if I ever have a problem i'll go back to apple with my receipt and box.
    So here is my question, is there anything in the box I have to fill out or send over to apple within a designated time period to activate the warranty? I haven't opened it yet. I'm just wondering what I should do, if I should go back to apple, or was my original assumption correct, and am i letting the paranoia get to me?
    Thanks

    Hi, George - Most often, when you purchase an APP at the same time as a computer, the computer is automatically enrolled in the APP. To verify whether or not your computer has been enrolled in the Plan, click on the purple "Support" tab at the top of this page, then scroll down, and enter your serial number in the text field on the right hand side of the page under the heading, About Your Support Coverage.
    Good luck!

  • Iweb designers for nonprofit, do they exist?

    I am looking for persons who are creative iweb designers to design a site for a nonprofit. Are there any sites or companies or individuals out there that do this type of work? Once again I would like to use iweb, as I feel it will allow the nonprofit professionals to be able to update the site easily.

    As long as the feature set of iWeb does not restrict your finished website then what you are proposing makes sense.
    By sending them a copy of the domain.sites2 file, clients can interact at the design stage as well - if necessary.
    This type of website would be better published to a commercial hosting service rather than to .Mac but the downside is that the simplicity of "one click" publishing is lost. Having said that, with good FTP software and a little instruction, most people would be able to handle updating and site maintainance.
    Publishing to a commercial server has the advantage of faster and reliable service and makes it easier to optimize the data for faster download.

  • Why my apple care for iphone doesn't transfer to my new phone after I claim a new one from apple store ?

    2 days ago my iphone fall into a sink full of water. Yesterday I went to apple store and ask for apple care for iphone and they have it. So, I bought it and registered it right away since my iphone still be in a garentee and still not surpass one year usage. Then they told me that my iphone problem considered in a "physical damage case" which they have a policy for claiming a new iphone and pay some fee. After I got my new iphone, they said that all the information and phone data which is registered into apple system about the phone and the user and bla bla bla will transfer to my new iphone. Today, I just check my phone serial number in "support & coverage " column and I found that all the phone data in apple system is already transfered from the old one to the new one EXCEPT the data of apple care that I already registered before I claimed the new phone. Now, the question is " What can I do ? " and " will it be transferd to my new iphone or I have to buy a new apple care for my NEW PHONE That I got from their service "

    Placing your iPhone in the toilet was the correct thing to do but you should have purchased an android phone instead. That would have solved these issues. :-)

    I would just advise that you be careful with old model chargers that were built for 30 pin to USB connectors for the old iPhones. They may not work for the iPhone 5 and/or they might damage the phone/battery etc. The best plan would be to wait for some kind of charger that was made for the iPhone 5.
    Nonsense; USB outputs are an industry standard, there is no danger in using a USB to Lightning cord to charge your iPhone 5.

  • I've had 2 Iphone 6plus stolen last 2 weeks. I am a reasonably careful 50 years old who's had a cell phone since they exist. Surely Apple can think of a way to make these stolen phones more difficult to re-use ?

    I've had 2 Iphone 6plus stolen last 2 weeks. I am a reasonably careful 50 years old who's had a cell phone since they exist. Surely Apple can think of a way to make these stolen phones more difficult to re-use ? No matter the precautions, a cell phone is easy to steal. But it seems even easier to re-use stolen cell phones. I had "find my phone", passwords, and another tracking device on my second stolen phone. Thieves just shut it off and wipe it. You would think with all the technology available, these phones could be rendered completely useless if stolen. Unless of course this "second hand market" is considered valuable.

    Your best bet is to as soon as you realize your device has been stolen is to go to iCloud.com on your computer and put the device in Lost Mode. This gives you the opportunity to not only add a Lock to the screen, but also to send a message to the lowlife who stole you phone, giving them the opportunity to return it, (of course, don't give them any of your personal information!). But you may be able to find a way to communicate with them anonymously via a 3rd party phone or something to see what can be done.
    You will be happy to know that your device and its contents cannot be accessed by the thief, and if you don't care for tracking it, you also can also Erase all of your personal information from the device. This does not remove the Activation Lock, so they still won't be able to use it for anything.....

  • My ipod 4 has apple care for 1 year i just got it can i get a new one because it broke and i pay for the apple care can i get a newe one

    my ipod 4g has the apple care for 1 year can you get a new one for it because something happen to it the mirrer broke yes or no

    AIf the iPod broke because of a defect then yes, Apple will replace the iPod if it is within the warranty period.  A broken/cracked screen is not covered.  However, sometimes if you make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store they will exchange your iPod at no cost if it has a broken/cracked screen.

  • How to check a list of users against AD if they exist

    Hi Scripting Guys,
    I have a powershell script that allows me to query a list of users against AD, and if they exist, it will write their details into a new file.
    I want to adapt this script so that it will still do the same, but if the user does NOT exist anymore, write a line such as "<User-ID> does not exist in AD".
    Here's the code I have so far:
    Import-Module ActiveDirectory
    $UserList = get-content C:\temp\checkAD\Accounts.txt
    Foreach ($Item in $UserList) {
    Get-aduser -filter {samAccountName -eq $Item} | Out-File C:\temp\checkAD\existingAccounts.txt -encoding default -append
    Does anybody know how to achieve that?
    Thanks and best regards,

  • Endpoint Protection error: The source folder for content does not exist.

    I have a single SCCM 2012 SP1 CU4 server running on Windows Server 2012.
    I have been using this for a little more than a month for Endpoint Protection and Windows Updates.
    I just recently started seeing that my Endpoint Deployment Package has Failed.  I click on "Content Status" and select the Endpoint package (which again shows Failed).  I click on "View Status" and I get this
    message in the "Error" tab:
    The source folder for content does not exist.
    The Asset Details point to the exact location  that does not exist:
    The source directory "\\<server>\updates\endpoint\6bd81fde-3a3f-4aa9-bf70-ba007891ca68" for package "<package>" does not exist. 
    I didn't change anything related to this, and that directory path (\\server\updates\endpoint) is
    shared and is populated with a lot of other folders. 
    Is this possibly just a bad update file?  Should I manually create that sub-folder that it says is missing?
    Any help would be great!  Thanks!
