I need a Wireless G Internet Camera for the MAC

I would like to buy a mac compatible Wireless G Internet Camera. Ive found lots of PC/Windoze ones but no mac ones... I would like it to be under $100 street price like all the PC cams...
Any help?
Thanks guys!

The important factor that I found for compatibility is that the camera's web server needs to be Java based, and not rely on any ActiveX Microsoft technologies. It can then be used by any browser in MacOS, Windows, and Linux.
About 4 years ago I bought a D-Link DCS-900W for around $200. It worked well out in the barn while my wife was waiting for a mare to foal. Friends all over the web were able to tune in and check out the situation.
Currently, I've seen that the D-Link DCS-920 Wireless G is available from the usual suspects all over the internet for between $70 to $90.
We found that the camera's work well if they are in a well lighted area. Low light cameras can get pricey. Don't expect real motion high def, especially if you are pushing the wireless distance limit.

Internet Cards for the Mac

I am wondering, does Apple manufacture Internet cards for the Mac? If the answer is no, which third-party-companies manufacture Internet cards that are compatible with the Mac? Which of those Internet cards are the best?

If you mean Cellular adapters there are several USB adapters (one from Sprint worked with my Mac no problem). I would check with YOUR cellular carrier.

Do I need to give up on Acrobat for the Mac?

I am using Acrobat Professional 8.1.2 on an Intel Mac with OSX 10.5.2. Under Office 2004, I am unable to get documents through the Distiller properly. Two examples:
i) I have a one page Excel file that has a couple hyperlinks in it. Distiller starts, the progress bar gets about 80% of the way across, and then it just stops. No error messages or crashes, it just stops and sits there until I eventually hit the "cancel" button.
ii) I have a 200+ page Word file that has no links or anything - I just want to convert it to a simple pdf file. Distiller starts, but runs at a rate of about 1 page every 2-3 seconds; simply too slow to deal with.
If I start Parallels (with Office 2003 and Acrobat Standard for Windows), the same files convert very quickly with no issues whatsoever.
I realize that Office itself is contributing to issues on the Mac versus under Windows, but does the Mac version of Acrobat really have that many issues or am I doing something wrong?

You are correct - the Mac version is not as powerful as the Windows
version in respect of PDF Makers and Office integration.
However, have you tried going to Advanced / Document Processing / Create
Links ..
This option is often overlooked for URLs which describe themselves ...

I need a 2 way sync tool for the mac (or a shell script and some help)

I am looking for a way to (two way) sync a folder on my Macbook Pro with a SMB Server (aka Windows)
I found a few paid for applications that do this, and before I buy one I thought I'd ask here and see if there are any recommendations.
So far I've found Synk Standard and ChronoSync.
I assume this could also be hacked together with Automator and some shell scripts, but I'm not sure how I'd do that.

yes, Chronosync is often recommended for this kind of thing. Never heard of Synk Standard. you can also do it for free with rsync but I suggest you stick with Chronosync.

What is the best wireless mouse/keyboard combo for the Mac mini.

Right now I'm using a Logitech k360 keyboard/mouse combo that works great on my pc but it's horrible on my Mac mini. I'm even debating whether I should return the Mac mini because I think something may be wrong with it. Also, my Mac mini is inside of my entertainment center which has a glass door on it, could this be part of the problem?

This should be no issue whatsoever. I have a very similar setup
with the Mini inside and enternainment center w/glass doors.
Just make sure there is enough room to have sufficient air flow
around it.
Is yours constucted out of wood or metal?
....I'm even debating whether I should return the Mac mini because I think something may be wrong with it.
Are the keyboard mouse issues the only issue or is there
something else in addition to that?
What exatly do you mean by working horrible? Just what is
actually going on when you use them. As I see on the website
Logitech only specs Windows OSes, it could be a driver issue.
Also, if this is the new Mini, do you have external USB3.0 drives
connected to it? There have been issues with Bluetooth, however
the Logitech specs do not state that it is Bluetooth but could
still be affected.

Do I need to buy internet security for my Mac

Do I need to purchase a internet security for my mac?

No. Any such software for the Mac is usually worthless; Mac OS X has protection of its own, and the free ClamXav can be used to detect and remove Windows viruses.

Help! looking for internet camera compatible with Mac

I need help! I purchased a Mac recently and so far I am very happy with it. However, we just had a baby and I'd like to see and hear my baby from my computer at work. At work we use PCs and at home we havea iBook G4. I bought a D-link wireless G internet camera, the DCS-950G, but I could not install it because it requires you to have a PC for initial installation. I've looked around the web but I've been unable to find an internet camera that works with the Mac. I am desperate and frustrated! Does aynone know of an wireless internet camera that works with the Mac? I'd greatly appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks.

Hello B Real Brad
You do not say which DV camcorder you have. The exact answers to your questions depend upon your camcorder's features and user guide instructions. If you experience problems when you try your camcorder, check your camcorder's users guide instructions. That having been said, here are the answers to your posted questions:> Do I need to have a firewire cable to successfully use it through iChat ...
Firewire will be easiest. If you have a Firewire cable to download your DV Video to iMovie, that one will work fine.
... or can I use the normal usb cable?
Depending upon your camcorder, that may work with additional software and or hardware, but, if your camcorder offers it, Firewire will me much easier.
.. is the quality ... better using a DV camcorder ... ?
Usually. This depends on which camcorder you compare with which webcam.
Some people like the image quality of their camcorders better. See John Kennedy's "Cameras and Image Quality", the Sat - October 30, 2004, blog for a comparison. (John's is a very high quality camcorder.)
See this link for my reasons for using a webcam when I do not need portability or highest possible quality. Some of the reasons may be of interest to you.For specifics on how to get going, see my recent response to Tony Keogh. Although Tony asks specifically about a particular Sony model, the specific suggestions I made there should apply to your camcorder, too.
If the above do not get you going, I suggest that you start your own topic and give as many specifics as possible about your system, your problem, and what you have already tried. Your questions deserve the individual attention they will get in a separate topic.
Here are a couple of other suggestions for your consideration:
(1) I see from your other posts that you use Miglia TVMini. Be aware that some AV devices and third-party items can cause possible hardware or software conflicts with iChat.
(2) Also, your system info shows that you are using 10.4.4. I suggest that you update to the latest available version of Tiger using the following method:- Repair permissions.
- Then download and apply the Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update (PPC).
- Finish with another Permissions Repair.The latest Combo Update offers several additions and improvements over the older versions.
Cheers,
Jim

Wireless Live Internet Camera

I am on a Macintosh (OSX) and recently plugged in my wireless camera again. The both the power and wireless lights are illuminated (green). There is not an installer for this product on the Macintosh. Also, the user guide download does not open fro Creative's site.
Anyone have the first steps they can share for me to start using this?
I presume I reset the device and plug it into an active ethernet connection for me to administer it....
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeffster?

Using Consumer Digital Camera for the Vision System

I am evaluating, if I can use a consumer digital camera for the vision system. I wanted to see if anybody out there have done that in past? The other question is, do the consumer camera manufacturers provide the driver software in order to retrive the images directly from the camera to the computer ?

I think your suggestion is right, using a firewire camera is much
straightforward. But some consumer cameras have advantages too because
of the very high resolution, especially the newer models of digital
still camera. If the cameras support PTP protocol, then I have a
LabVIEW driver for them. Check out more details at:

iTunes never displays the iPod in the left pane?
iTunes is shipped with a "helper application" called the "iPod Service" that runs and is used by iTunes to communicate with the iPod device. This service may be disabled.
If your system is Microsoft Windows XP and you are logged in as an Administrator:
1. Quit iTunes and, if your iPod is currently connected to your computer, safely remove it using the system tray application to manage removable devices.
2. Right click on "My Computer"
3. Select "Manage"
4. In the "Computer Management" window, left pane (tree view), follow this path:
+Computer Management (local) > Services and Applications > Services+.
5. In the right pane, scroll down to "iPod Service" and double click it.
6. If the service is listed as "Disabled" and "Stopped," change to "Manual" and "Start" it. ("Manual" will cause it to start when iTunes starts and "Start" starts the service right now.)
7. Close "Computer Management"
8. Restart iTunes and wait for it to completely come up.
9. Reconnect your iPod.
Does your iPod show up in iTunes?

I need to use an older version of FireFox for the Mac (3.0) to be compatible with another program; how can I get it?

My company uses SalesForce CRM and recently changed wholesale to Macs. Unfortunately, certain functions in SalesForce are not compatible with the current version of Safari or any version of FireFox newer than 3.0 and we need to be able to use those functions. How can I download that version for the Mac?

There is also a portable Firefox 3.0 version via this link:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/osxportableapps/PortableFirefox_3.0_en-US-OSX_r4.0u.dmg?download
It can take some time before the download starts.
