Faxing using Apple Modem (or any other) in Windows XP on a Macbook 5.5?

Hi, hope I'm posting in the right discussion board. I'm currently using Windows XP on a Macbook Pro 13" 5.5. I need to be able to fax directly from the computer. I wanted to know if you can use the obsolete Apple Modem (if I can find one in eBay) to do it in Windows XP. (Or another third party modem that would work)
I don't want to use a fax subscription service as I only send 1 or 2 emails per months. This is for some businesses that don't have email.
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
As indicated by this article, Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later is required for the Apple USB Modem.
You should probably look for an appropriate USB modem for Windows instead, if you intend to send fax messages under Windows XP.

    Try moving these files to the Trash one at a time and test (but don't empty yet.)

    If doing this doesn't help, then navigate to this location and delete the cache (but not the enclosing folder.)

  • Can I use Apple Pay at any store that has an NFC reader or has that merchant had to have signed up to accept Apple Pay?

    Can I use Apple Pay at any store that has an NFC reader (with no Apple Pay logo) or has that merchant had to have signed up to accept Apple Pay?

    If the merchant accepts contactless payments, you should be able to use any contactless payment option (which includes Apple Pay).
    Some merchants (like CVS) have NFC readers but they have been deactivated because they are a member of a competing payment system (Current C).

    Forgotten passcode (Recovery Mode)
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
    5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.

    sounds more like Bluetooth rather than moue, but w/o knowing w/o posting mac model type/year we... will... not... know... what you have
    All computers are personal computers, a PC though is also "non-Apple" in common usage.
    Mac also is platform and OS.
    Very confused reading what you are trying to tell us.

  • Sending Faxes using internal modem and DSL

    I found that I can receive a fax, but I cannot send one. When I try and send one the internal modem tries to connect to the internet using "internet connect". It searches for a number to connect to the internet. Since I am using DSL now I don't have a phone number to dial into the internet. If I put my phone number in it calls me and gets a busy signal.
    Can someone tell me how I should be configuring the internal modem?

    From the Knowledge Base at
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1797.html
    Sending a fax
    You can fax files directly from your computer to any fax machine or computer that is set up to receive faxes. If your computer has a modem that is connected to a phone line, it is automatically configured to send faxes.
    Open the document you want to fax.
    Choose File > Print.
    Choose Fax PDF from the PDF pop-up menu.
    Type the fax number of the user you want to receive your fax in the To field.
    You can also choose users directly from Address Book by clicking the Address Book button to the right of the To field. Be sure you have a fax number listed for each user you choose in Address Book. For more information about using Address Book, see Address Book Help, available in the Help menu when Address Book is open.
    If necessary, type the dialing prefix required for the phone system you're using in the Dialing Prefix field. (For example, if you need to dial a 9 to access an outside line, type 9 in the Dialing Prefix field.)
    If you want to send a fax through a modem other than your computer's built-in modem, choose it from the Modem pop-up menu.
    If you want to send a cover page with your fax, click the Use Cover Page checkbox and type a message in the Message field.
    If you need to change any of the preset faxing options, choose the type of options you want to change from the Fax Cover Page pop-up menu. (To see options for the application you're using, choose the application from the pop-up menu.)
    If necessary, select options for the type you chose. (For example, you can select the number of copies you want faxed if you chose Copies & Pages in step 8.)
    Tip: If you have a combination of options that you frequently use when faxing a document, you can save it as a "preset." After choosing your options, choose Save As from the Presets pop-up menu and type a name for the set of options. If you want to use this set of options when you fax a document, choose its name from the Presets pop-up menu.
    Click Fax.
    The fax is sent as soon as your modem is available. (For example, if you're using your modem to connect to the Internet, the fax is sent after you disconnect from your Internet service provider.)
    You may want to send your fax at a later time. For example, you may want to send it at night when telephone rates are lower. Just choose Scheduler from the Fax Cover Page pop-up menu, and enter the time. Make sure your computer is on, is not asleep, and is connected to your phone line at that time.

  • Cannot send fax through Apple modem

    In Tiger I regularly sent out faxes through my external Apple modem. However, after upgrading to Leopard, I can no longer send out faxes. Instead I get a "Preparing to send the fax document" message, but it never sends it out.
    Does anyone else have this problem? Is this a known bug in Leopard?

    I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean by "/var/log/cups/error_log". I typed it into Spotlight, but nothing came up.

  • Faxing via apple modem

    Hi all,
    I added an internal modem to my G4 AGP. I'm using Faxstf and I find it tedious when trying to fax that I have to manually add a fax # into my address book in order for Faxstf to find it. In the pass, from my 8100 I faxed normally as I typed the number and clicked fax.
    Is there an easy way to fax in OSX 10.4.11 using my modem? Can anyone recommend a good fax program?
    Thanks

    Hi-
    Have you tried faxing using the File/Print/PDF/Fax PDF option? This is linked to your Address book, and is a handy way of faxing.

  • HT3964 Is there any other way to turn on a macbook air without using power button?

    Hi everyone
    I think I somehow spilled some water on the keyboard or something and now the power button does not respond. I see that the bettery is fully charged as the LED light indicates green. Now, is there any other way to turn on the computer without using powerbutton?

    Nor would you want to try to turn it on under these circumstances. If the logic board is salvagable, and the damage is now only limited to the keyboard, then putting power to the logicboard could cause a catastophic short circuit and render the whole MBA a lost cause..
    Immediately take it in to an Authorized Service Center or Apple Store Genius Bar to ascertain the damage and potential for repairability.

  • Do have to have HD TV to use Apple TV ? Any way around it?

    Have a nice TV , but it is not HD. Can I still use Apple TV?

    Officially not really.
    It needs a TV capable of 16:9 widescreen and 720p resolution over HDMI.
    It only has HDMI output for video unlike version 1 of the device that also had component and supported SD 16:9 TVs.
    As HDMI on AppleTV2 requires HDCP for video playback, any official HDMI adapters would not be allowed to output the HD signal over analogue  - you might find some that bend the rules but no guarantee they'd work.
