How do I get a 2GB jaz drive to work with a mini mac?

I have a Microtech adapter (usb to scsi 25pin adapter) to hook a 2GB jaz drive to a Belkin Hub. I insert a 2GB jaz disk into the jaz drive and can't get the disk to show up on the desktop. Have the latest Iomega driver installed on the computer. Help!

the reason is simple if you have a intel based mac and the disk was formated in mac os 9.2.2 or later the disk will not work because the intel based mac doesn't recognize mac os 9 drivers because the mac mini intel based doesn't use classic

Can't get Zip or Jaz Drive to work with PB G4 OS 10.4.7

Hi All,
Please help if possible. I recently upgraded from a PB 3400/G3, "Kanga" to a PB G4. When I used my Kanga I saved tons of files and pictures to my Iomega SCSI 1G Jaz and 100M Zip drives. I would like to transfer all this stuff to my PB G4 but nothing I have tried works...
I:
- purchased a Iomega SCSI to USB converter for my JAZ. When it is hooked up to my PB G4, after what seems like 100 years (actually about 7 minutes) it shows up on the desktop. Then after another 7 minutes it opens. Then after another 7 minutes the folder I select opens. And so on and so on. I get scared that I'm screwing up the OS...and tired of waiting so I quit the whole thing.
- purchased a USB Iomega Zip which never shows up on the desktop, does not show up in the System Profiler, and does not show up in the Disk Utility. It doesn't matter if the disk is in the Zip before the computer is turned on or inserted later.
- read FAQs on the Iomega site and tried most of their suggestions (check that on/off switch is in the on position, power on, cables connected, etc.) including remove Iomega driver (or whatever it is) and reinstall.
The one thing I have not tried is to remove the Iomega files from the system manually and then reinstall the software. I am a long time user of a Mac, but OS 10 is a mystery to me and I'm deathly afraid of removing files I need. What are the Iomega files and where are they located? Do I remove them from OS 9 and OS 10 or just from OS 10?
Oh, I forgot...I read a lot of Apple discussion items talking about removing some Adaptec files but I think they were just for PowerMac users.
What this all boils down to is, does anyone know how I can get my Zip and Jaz drives to work on my PB G4's? As you can tell, I move forward very slowly and giving up my trusted Kanga is a big step for me I'd like to be able to move between my Kanga and G4s for a while longer.
Thanks to anyone who has the patience to read thru all this stuff and provide suggestions.
Powerbook G4, 15", 1.25GHz and PB G4, 12', 1.5 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.7)

USB and Firewire Zip and Jazz drives exist which work with Mac OS X a lot better than SCSI. I would suggest selling the old SCSI one to someone who can better use it, and get yourself more up to date drives:

I got a iphone 5 but it does not work on my MacBook with Mac OSx 10.5.8 it says i need OSX 10.6.8 but it will not download because I need OSX 10.6 but it would load either. How do I get the older operating system to work with the IPhone5?

You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

I would contact Apple under your warranty. I doubt you received a new iPod since Apple's policy is to give you a refurbished iPod.

How do I get an epson scanner 1680 to work with photoshop cs4 on an iMac running 10.7.5?

I've tried updating with the USB cord, updating wirelessly, downloading the drivers manually, installing them manually and every concieveable combination of the above. This is getting extremely frustrating and i'm ready to toss this macbook into a wall.
TLDR;
This is my first experience with a macbook and so far i'm finding the whole experience extremely difficult and disapointing. I felt that because of the hype, that macs were top of the line but i'm seriously considering ditching the mac and heading back to pc if this issue can't be resolved.

How can I get an HP Deskjet 882C to work with Snow Leopard?

Is there a way to get our HP Deskjet 882C to work with Snow Leopard? This printer is a workhorse, and even though it is so old, our budget and common sense say not to get rid of it.

Install the HPIJS package. This is an open source set of drivers for older printers. HP dropped support for a whole lot of printers when Snow Leopard was developed. These drivers fill the gap.
You will need to install three components - Ghostscript, Foomatic RIP and the hpijs package. They are all on the HPIJS web page. Once installed, restart your Mac, connect your printer. You will probably need to go into System Preferences > Print & Fax to select the printer and set it as your default printer. After that it works great. And it also works on Lion.

How can I get an audio-in connector to work with a MacBook Pro (Mid 2012)?

I have a Plantronics headset with two cables: audio in and audio out (like the two connectors on the old MacBooks). It is pretty old and so I assumed it was for those. I have tried to get it to work with my mid-2012 MacBook Pro, but the microphone (audio in [yes, it does have a picture of a microphone on it]) cable isn't recognized by the Mac. It thinks it is headphones, and unsuccessfully tries to play sound through it. The other cable (audio out), however, successfully receives sound and plays it through.
I hope that makes sense, and I would appreciate any help .

They removed the audio input, starting from your model, you will need an USB interface, there are may, and it depends on how high of quality you need.
This works for most applications, unless you are trying to record "music quality"

How do I get Photo Deluxe 3.1 to work with Windows XP?

I have recently upgraded my PC (used to have 98SE).
Since then, I cannot get Photo Deluxe 3.1 to work
I *DO NOT* want Photoshop - it's WAY WAY WAY too complicated for me.
Photo Deluxe 3.1 was great, did everything I wanted it to do, and was so simple that even George W. Bush could work it.
The features that I used are :
* Allowing a print screen image to be pasted with CTRL+C
* EASY cropping of photos
* Wash out of photos (for back inlays of CD mixes - the back inlay was a washed out version of the front inlay, with text over the top)
* BASIC, easy to do brightness & contrast controls
* EXPORT - so I can export any image to almost any format, particularly JPG
Ideally, I'd like to continue to use Photo Deluxe 3.1
If I REALLY must, I want a SIMPLE Photo Editor (IE, NOT Photoshop) that will do the things I did with Photo Deluxe.

For the tasks Jangly Mark describes, GIMP is certainly easy. It would take less than 10 minutes to discover/learn how to do these tasks in GIMP.
The only reason why GIMP may appear to be difficult to us is because we are accustomed to Photoshop's different controls and methods.
Here are some GIMP quick tips:
Cropping:
Press 'Shift-C' to start the crop tool. Draw box. Adjust Corners. Hit 'Enter'.
Creating a washed imaged:
Tools Menu->Color Tools->Levels
Adjusting Brightness and Contrast:
Tools Menu->Color Tools->Brightness-Contrast

How can I get a video signal using IMAC 27 with only mini display port. I like to send the signal wireless to a TV using a TV/audio transmit system.

I have an IMAC 27 with a mini display port ( only this). I also have all the adapters ( mini display port to VGA, HDMI...).
Since I moved to UAE I like to transmit the signal frm my IMAC ( where I also look German TV on) to my TV. I will do so by using a wireless Transmit receive system with theree cinch inputs ( transmit system ( video, 2x voice).
The distance to the TV IS ABOUT 10m and one wall. I don`t want to use a cable.
Is there any solution for example mini display to VGA + VGA adapter to cinch so I can use the transmit system?
HDMI would also be an optiekn, bat then I have to by another Transmit receive system.
If somebody made already the experience I would appreciate to share the information
Is there may be any store in UAE where to get support. It is very diificult to get good advice here. They sell everything bat can not reaaly explain and have very often no technical knowledge. With this problem nobody until now can help me.

I don't know what AppleTV can handle as far as bit rate is concerned, but increase the bit rate as high as it will let you. You are taking DV which is 25Mb/s and compressing it. If you're making an H.264, you should get great results needing no more than 6Mb/s. Bear in mind, the higher the bit rate, the larger the file size.

How Do I Get A Sprint Novatel S720 to work with a PB G4 10.4.8?

I need help with "Sprint Mobile Broadband Card Novatel Wireless
Merlin S720.
I have a Mac PowerBook G4 running 10.4.8 as follows:
Machine Name: PowerBook G4
Machine Model: PowerBook3,3
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (2.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 667 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
Memory: 1 GB

Boot ROM Version: 4.2.9f1
I was told by a "Sprint PCS Level 2" Tech that if
I got one of the "Sprint" cards that I would have to
set it up on a "Windows" Laptop and then call a
"Sprint PCS Level 2" tech and have them walk me
through setting it up on my PowerBook G4...
I purchased a "PanTech PX500"... set it up on my
"Windows" laptop and called to be told that I should
have purchased a "Novatel S720" and the the "PanTech"
would NOT work in my Powerbook...
I took the "PanTech" back and finally (after of month of looking
for one in a Sprint Store to no avail) ordered on from Sprint's
Tel-Sales unit...
When it arrived I set it up on my "Windows" laptop and called
back to a Sprint Level 2 Tech... I got a tech that was very helpful,
however, was NOT able to get the "Novatel S720" to work... He
told me I should have purchased a "PanTech PX500"!!!
This morning I went to a "Sprint Store" and was told that they had
sold several "Novatel S720's" to Mac owners and suggested that
I keep the "Novatel S720" and even though they could not set it up
on my Mac... they suggested that I call back to another Level 2 tech...
Is there anyone out there that can help me get this working???
Many Thanks In Advance!!!

PowerBook G4 (15-inch Titanium Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Betty...
I went to the Sprint Store in St Peters MO and one of the Sprint Associates told me that she had sold several Sprint cards including 20 or so S720's to a customer of her's..
A large graphics house based in St Louis.
She emailed the Senior VP there and ask that he contact me
if he could/would help...
I received an email from him in less than 4 hours and he
directed me to their in-house tech dept!
I called and talked to the person that he had directed me to
and that person told me that it was a little tricky... You have to do some modification of the "Code" in the Kernel...
He said if would bring my Mac & the card over the next day
at 10AM it would take him about 10 minutes to get me up and
running!!!
I ask what the charge would be??? He said... "The Boss is a
real Mac Guy... Just Bring it over and we'll get you fixed
up!!! It's a Mac thing!!!"
I've been a Mac owner/user/teacher since early '84... It's
GREAT to me a Mac Person!!!
Thanks for your reply and taking the time to help!!!
