G5 without BLUETOOTH: what do I need to do to have bluetootrh

Dear All,
I am writing about our PowerPC G5 (2x1.8 GHz, 1.5Go DDR SDRAM).
When we bought the computer we didn't have bluetooth board (card) installed.
Does Apple supply a board to install in this MAC computer so that Bluetooth is ?
A shop mentioned a "Apple Bluetooth enabling USB key": does this exist ?
Do I need a special antenna to plug in the back of the Mac computer like the airport antenna ?
Where can I buy these in France or on internet ? What are the correct references please ?
Thanks. Regards,
Kevin

A shop mentioned a "Apple Bluetooth enabling USB key": does this exist ?
They probably meant a USB Bluetooth Adapter.
The only one officially recommended and supported by Apple is the D-Link DBT-120:

Not all third-party USB Bluetooth Adapters are fully Mac compatible, so be sure to check if you don't get a D-Link DBT-120.

I just purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard DC andf upgraded from Acrobat XI. When I instalkled it on my PC the print Production Tools were there and functional. I installed it on my Laptop and those tolls are not there. What do I need to do to have Print Production Tools on both computers?

This is quite odd. I wonder if you could try something for me on EACH computer.
Use Help > About Adobe Acrobat DC.
At the top of the box it should say Adobe Acrobat Pro DC or Adobe Acrobat Standard DC.
On each of the two machines, what does it say? (I think something odd has happened)

I edited my web site. Now in Firefox I see the HTML language, in IE and Safari I see the website. What do I need to do to have all 3 browsers show the website

I updated my website by doing some basic editing. Upon completion of the editing I checked out the website on IE and Safari and Firefox to make sure the changes looked the way I wanted them. On IE and Safari everything was fine, however, on Firefox the browser did not show my website it showed the basic HTML document. I am thinking there must be some code that Firefox got hung up on, but I have no idea how to figure out what firefox does not like and still keep the other browsers happy.

What do I need to do to have my iTunes run on any operating system from my external hard drive?

I've already moved everything from my computer to my external hard drive, but for some reason I'm having a hard time being able to open the iTunes program every time I'm trying to open it on a different computer. I'm having to continuously uninstall and reinstall to be able to use it. I use my computer at home mostly but i also use my friends computer, and sometimes computers at school. Are there any files or anything that would enable be to be able to use it on any operating system or how can I get it working?

You need to run the install file on the computer fresh as though you were installing itunes to the computer for the first time. Direct the installation to occur on your portable drive instead of in the typical destination folder (In the case of windows)
No, no, no... that is extremely bad advice.
Programs get installed on the main drive of the computer. Never install a program on a removable drive unless that program has been specificially designed to run on a removable drive.
Install iTunes on the computer as you normally would.
Once installed, hold SHIFT and launch iTunes.
When prompted select the option to point iTunes to an existed library.
Then point iTunes to the external drive.
Anytime you want to access the drive on a new computer, launch iTunes in the same fashion pointing it to the external drive.

You've asked two completely unrelated questions, one in the subject and one in the body of the post.
Gmail email does not load into iCloud. Only your @me.com iCloud email will load into iCloud.
To delete an app, press and hold on the icon until it wiggles, then tap the X in the corner of the icon.

I connected my new iPad up to my computer to synch it in iTunes, and now none of my apps that I had already downloaded on the iPad will open. What do I need to do?

I purchased a new iPad, and am just learning. I installed a number of apps on the iPad, and then went to synch it to my home computer. Now none of the apps that had already been downloaded to the iPad will open. What do I need to do?

have you tried to reset it? hold down the sleep and home key until the silver apple comes up. Let it restart. It's the equivalent of 'control-alt-delete' and sometimes fixes glitches.

Mac OS 10.3.9, What do I need and How do I Install OS 9?

Ok so I have an iBook G3 800Mhz laptop with 10.3.9 already installed. I want to install OS 9 for "classic" support and I'm not sure how to do this or what I'll need.
So I have a few questions all in one topic.
What Do I need to install os 9?
How do I install OS 9 with out disturbing my OS X 10.3.9 install.
And Is there any way to avoid having to reinstall OS 10.3.9?

Hi, jobbertoo -
Okay, your G3 machine is a PowerBook (Firewire) model. It originally came with OS 9.0.2, which is a model-specific version of OS 9. All Macs have a minimum OS which they can use, typically the version that they originally shipped with.
This means that a retail OS 9.1 or 9.2.1 Install CD is suitable; since you have a retail OS 9.2.1 Install CD, it should work.
Yes, Mac drives can be partitioned into two or more volumes; many folk routinely do that, particularly with large drives - among other things, doing so can reduce net seek times. For most purposes, Mac OS's treat each partition as if it were a separate drive; this includes the ability to use each partition as a boot volume, with different OS versions on each (there are a few limitations to this, but none applicable in this instance).
It is not necessary to partition a drive in order to have both OS 9 and OSX on it. OSX was designed to be able to cohabit the same volume (a volume = an unpartitioned drive or a partition of a partitioned drive) as OS 9. On those later machines which shipped with both OS9 and OSX pre-installed, both came on the same volume. In that configuration either OS can be used as the boot OS, and OS 9 can also be used as Classic under OSX.
Many folk prefer to separate OS 9 and OSX; doing so can make housekeeping and, should it ever be necessary, re-installation of either OS much easier. Whether you choose to partition or not is your choice.
<hr>
If you choose to not partition the drive...
You should be able to install OS 9 directly, via a Clean Install. Note that in the Mac OS 9 terminology, a Clean Install erases nothing. Instead, it installs a brand new, 'clean' System Folder, an assortment of OS 9 utility programs, creates a couple of standard OS 9 folders {Applications (Mac OS 9) and Documents}, and little else - it will not overwrite anything. This Apple KBase addresses that -
Article #58176 - Mac OS 8, Mac OS 9: Performing a Clean Installation
You will need to boot the machine to the OS 9.2.1 Install CD in order to do that.
There is a possibility that when you have booted to the CD, the internal hard drive on the PowerBook will not mount (its icon will not be visible on the desktop). If this happens, it usually means that the drive was last formatted by using OSX's Disk Utility and the option to install OS 9 drivers was not selected. If those drivers are not installed, the drive can not be mounted by OS 9, hence is inaccessible for installation when booting to an OS 9 install CD. This Apple KBase article discusses that issue -
Article #106849 - Disk Is Available in Mac OS X But Not in Mac OS 9
If that is the case, the article suggests one possible remedy - using OS 9's Drive Setup to re-install OS 9 drivers. Unfortunately that rarely works, and it then becomes necessary to re-initialize the drive in order to get OS 9 drivers onto it. This erases the drive, so backing up things you do not want to lose is necessary.
You can re-initialize the drive using OSX's Disk Utility; if you do, be sure to select the option to install OS 9 drivers.
You can also use OS 9's Drive Setup to do the work; in this case OS 9 drivers are installed automatically.
In either case, select Mac OS Extended as the format.
<hr>
If you do want to partition the drive, you will first need to back up any data you do not want to lose, since partitioning a drive will erase it completely.
You can use OSX's Disk Utility or OS 9's Drive Setup to do the partitioning. If you use OSX's Disk Utiity, be sure to select the option to install OS 9 drivers; in either case select Mac OS Extended as the format for each partition.
The following article describes how to use OS 9's Drive Setup, including using it to partition a drive. OSX's Disk Utility is similar in logic, but the settings are on different pages.
Using Drive Setup
As far as a partitioning scheme goes, it would be very good if the hard drive is at least 10GB in size. If that is the case, you can probably get by with about 2GB for OS 9, and the remainder for OSX. If it happens to be a 20GB drive, I'd suggest 5GB for OS 9, the remainder for OSX.
There are two reasons to grant OSX the lion's share of the drive -
(1) OSX needs more room for installation.
(2) OSX runs best when there is at least 5GB free space on the drive after installation of OSX and its applications.

I have not been able to figure out how to save my bookmarks and settings to a flash drive...
As far as copying off those items, someone else will need to advise as to where they might be located.
However, you might consider an alternative -
Get an external firewire drive, something around 20 or 30GB in size, or even larger. Use it to make a clone of your hard drive - everything will be copied over, including a usable version of OSX. Then do what you need to do to the internal drive; once that is done, clone the items back from the firewire drive. This not only makes moving things around a lot easier, it maintains their integrity - more importantly, it provides you with a backup and archiving drive. In order to clone the internal drive you will need to use a cloning utility, such as one of these -

I would like to run in 10 and be able to open my 9 apps from my 10 apps. folder. Am i looking at a mac in the correct light?
Not exactly.
OS 9 and OSX are completely different operating systems. OS 9 is the culmination of a series of OS's that started with Mac OS 1.0 over 20 years ago, and shares some of the same basic costruction as the fist one. OSX, on the other hand, is brand new - other than some visual similarities, it shares none of the basics with OS 9 and earlier, not even the same logic of what is where and how various OS files interact.
This means that software written for OS 9 will not run in OSX, and vice versa - there are basic incompatibilities.
One solution for that, applicable to machines which can boot to both OS's (only one at a time, of course), is to have both OS's available and choose which to boot the machine to, depending on what software is to be used. Although your machine can boot to either, not all can - many late model G4 machines and all G5 machines can not boot to OS 9.
However, all OSX versions shipped to date can use OS 9 (OS 9.1 or later, depending on the model) as Classic. Classic is OS 9 used as a program (more like a shell rather than as an emulator) while booted to OSX in order to provide an environment in which many OS 9 programs can be run. An install of OS 9 can be used both for booting (for OS 9 bootable machines) as well as for Classic.
Not all OS 9 programs will fare well in Classic - specifically, OS 9 programs which require direct access to the machine's hardware (such as the graphics card) will not run well, if at all, in Classic - the reason is that OSX retains control of the hardware even when Classic is running. The group of programs most susceptible to this limitation is games.

What do I need to do to run both Firefox 13 and Firefox 7 on a Mac?

Firefox 13 works very well for every website I visit except Ancestry.com. Their support page says they only support Mac users who use Firefox 7 so I'd like to install it for use with this website only. I do not want to un-install Firefox 13. What do I need to do to have both versions available?

What Equipment is Needed for CCNP Security Lab

Hello,
Im Looking to find out what Devices are needed for a ccnp security home lab. I keep hearing that 2 5510's are a must for labbing. The downside Is the Prices avg $800 each on the low end. I also saw some ppl had an ips in their lab. Im looking to find out what is 100% needed. I alredy have a lab in place used for my ccnp r&s.
Thanks

I would also say that two ASAs is a must to practice with them. But in my opinion, 2 5505 SecPlus are enough. What are the differences to the 5510? You configure subinterfaces instead of vlan-interfaces. But that's something you know from R/S. And the failover is only stateless, but failover in general also works. Sof if you find these ASAs for less money, take them. IPS is probably the topic where most CCNP Security students are least familar with. So owning a sensor would also help.
And don't forget that the bigger CCIE-Training vendors have complete labs for rent with all you need for CCNP Sec preparation. That could also save some money.

My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

I would always have a wired keyboard and mouse on hand (need not be expensive ... any cheap wired devices will work). "Emergency recovery" procedures can activate features in random order, so the opportunity to select a recovery partition may pass before the wireless devices are recognized.
That will let you select the "turn on Bluetooth" icon.
