Need a webcam for PowerBook G4 running Mac OS 10.4.11 -- help!!!

Hi - i am looking for a webcam for my PowerBook G4 running Mac OS 10.4.11. No Apple service center or other computer store in India has any idea of what camera could work. Logitech sells the QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac, but that is too expensive for me. The ones I liked (from Logitech) are the Webcam C200/C250M/C500/C600 and the QuickCam for Notebooks - though I don't know if any of these is compatible with my G4.
Any suggestions? I'm open to suppliers other than Logitech, as long as it does not cost more than $60.
Please help me ASAP - thanks in advance

Problem installing Mac 10.4 on Powerbook G4 running Mac Os 10.4.3

Greetings everyone!
I'm having hard time. I have Powerbook G4 1.67GHZ/512MB/15 inch display now running Mac OS 10.4.3. Well, I'm trying to reinstall Mac OS 10.4 by doing clean installation - that is by wiping out all the old files. Eachtime I put Mac OS 10.4 DVD and click on "Install Mac OS X" icon, a Mac OS message "click" on "Restart" button pops up. After clicking "Restart" button, normally the computer restarts, the gray screen appears with that little wheel, it then goes to the blue screen and thats all I see. Just blue screen. Nothing happens. Then I shut down the computer and restart it again while Ejecting the Mac OS 10.4 DVD out of the Computer, and then it starts without any problem and comes back to its original state.
Can you please help me. Thanks.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I don't think the DVD is damaged since it worked fine on my old G4 desktop.
The reason I'm trying to reinstall OS 10.4 is because I have received the computer from a family member with all his files and data in it. I want to get rid of it all and start from scratch for my personal use - if possible. If not, I could settle for less.
I want to explain few issues if that helps. I first tried installing Mac OS 10.3 to my Powerbook running Mac OS 10.4.3. I put OS 10.3 CD, started computer with C key held down, and all that came up was gray screen with 1 inch black line to the left of the Apple logo, and remained there - never making it to the blue screen. I shut of the computer, took the Mac OS 10.3 out of the Powerbook, restarted without the CD, and the computer was back to the desktop.
Then I tried installing 10.4, which goes past the gray screen, and gets stuck in the blue screen. I ejected the 10.4 DVD, and computer was back to normal (to the desktop)
It sounds like you inserted the wrong or a damaged DVD and neither the installation nor erasure took place. In that case, let's get started again on the right foot.
Tell me why you want to erase your hard drive? Were you experiencing some technical issue, and if so what? Let's troubleshoot that situation with the least harmful method.

Need 1GB RAM for Powerbook 1.67

I am looking for a 1GB RAM. Is there any recommendation?
I called the Apple store, they have it instock, but the price is $300. I tried to ask them what brand, but they had no idea. They said it's "made for Powerbook"
Also found a Kingston on eBay (KTA-PBG4333), and the price is pretty reasonable--almost half of what Apple sells, and comes with a lifetime warranty.
Is anyone using Kingston? Is it reliable and anyone recommend it?

Do also be aware that at least numerous of the hi-res Aluminums have really finicky memory slots and pretty much require the "factory original" Samsung's. When I first upgraded mine I got the 1GB OWC, which kept freezing my machine; sent it back for another 1GB, which couldn't be recognized; and finally sent it back to them and got the Samsung, which has run flawlessly. They tested the chips I sent back and they worked fine-- just not in this machine... (My uncle's does the exact same thing-- and based on the threads, a bunch of other people's too).
Thus, whoever you get it from, make sure they've got good customer support. In the event yours is one of the ones who need the "factory original" RAM, you'll want good people!

Do I need to recalibrate for a walk-run-walk workout?

My nano is calibrated for walking but as I build endurance I want to incorporate a little running too. Do I need to recalibrate my nano, doing a walk-run pace? Do I set it for walking or running calibration? Thanks.

I have calibrated for both. It allows you to choose which one you are doing. The following is from the manual:
Calibrating Nike + iPod
Nike + iPod is quite accurate for most users. You can improve the accuracy by
calibrating Nike + iPod to your natural running and walking styles.
To calibrate Nike + iPod for running and walking:
1Choose Nike+iPod > Settings > Sensor > Calibrate and press the Center button.
2Choose Run and choose a distance.
3Press the Center button and run the set distance at a steady, natural pace.
4Press the Menu button and choose Done Calibrating. A message tells you if the
calibration was successful.
5Repeat steps 1–4, choosing Walk in step 2 and walking at a steady, natural pace in
step 3.
Note: Even after calibrating, the accuracy of the distance measurements may vary
depending on gait, running surface, incline, or temperature.

Need suggestions for new router running mac with eyeconnect,and ps3

We have the latest version of leopard on our 24" imac and we have eyeconnect ver. 1.6 we need to buy a new router and i want one that is very easy(like plug it in and walk away)to use. The main priority for this is not having problems streaming media to our ps3 via eyeconnect or medialink. Wireless or wired whatever would be the best i have never actually had an airport only linksys and have been unhappy with most of them any advice welcome about the router or getting eyeconnect to be recognized by the ps3 once its hooked up. Thank you

What I have in my house is an Airport Extreme with it's two (n,b or g) wireless connections for older non-N wireless connections. I then got a D-Link DGS-2208 10/100/1000Mbps 8-Port Desktop Green Ethernet Switch 8 for fast subnet sharing in the house. This speed is important for HD video sharing for from the external I have connected to the USB2 port on My Extreme.
Note: My Extreme is in "Bridged mode" because it sits behind a wired router that acts as the DHCP server.
Getting a router with Gig Ports and and USB2 port for an external to store/share files (videos mainly) to all my networked devices. The USB2 port on the Extreme was the deciding factor for the extra cost and this handy port making any USB2 external into a networked drive. Plus my older iPhone 3GS only does G it was a no-brainier because of the dual wireless.
The GIG switch is future proofing yourself for the years to come.
Plus I called the extreme but it is a Time Capsule that is just and extreme with a built-in disk.
One more thing: Use CAT6 cables in your network.

You can also use the freeware NeoOffice http://download.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php
NeoOffice is equivalent to Microsoft Office. It can open Excel files, Word files & PowerPoint files. You can also create these types of files that can be opened by PC users.

Mac OS 9.2.1 CD fails to boot on PowerBook G4 running Mac OS 10.3.9

I reformatted a friend's PowerBook G4 and installed Mac OS 10.3.9 with no problem. They have a few Classic applications they need to use, but I can't get the Mac OS 9.2.1 CD to boot so i can install it. The CD is bootable, because it says so right on the disc (white disc with orange "9"). I tried setting the startup disk to the CD drive, but that drive won't show up in the startup disk preferences. I've also tried installing from the desktop while booted into Mac OS X, but the OS 9 installer will not install. Any ideas?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9) 1.25 GHz; 512 MB RAM

Hi, Temporos. Most Powerbook G4 models aren't able to boot into OS 9.anything, regardless of the disc being used.
All Titanium PB G4s, which have two separate hinges and most of their ports on the back panel between the hinges, are bootable into some version of OS 9. Some of them require the model-specific version of OS 9.2.2 that was shipped on the discs that came with them. There is no other source for a bootable OS 9.2.2 on those models.
The many different Aluminum PB G4 models (12", 15" and 17"), which all have a single continuous hinge running all the way across the back and all their ports on the side panels, can't boot into any version of OS 9. The discs that were shipped with them include installers for Classic, i.e. a non-bootable installation of OS 9 that can be used to run OS 9-based apps in OS X.
Whether or not your Powerbook can boot to an OS 9.2.1 retail installer disc is not dependent on having OS 9 drivers installed on the hard drive. Even without those drivers installed, a Powerbook that is capable of booting to a retail 9.2.1 disc will do so, if the disc and the PB's optical drive are in working order. But if the PB can't boot to that disc, nothing you can do will change that.
Please identify your PB G4 model precisely. Then we'll know how to advise you.

Need download link for CS3 Web Premium Mac

Hi there. My MacBook was stolen. I replaced it, and I need to re-download CS3 Web Premium. Adobe provides this link:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs3-product-downloads.html
However, the CS3 Web Premium link for Mac here goes to an error message page.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/dlm/
Adobe customer support could not help me.
Does anyone here know where I can find a link to this software?
Thank you so much!

Try using a different browser. If I use the link you indicate it opens a download dialogue.
An alternate site for downloading Adobe software is ProDesignTools (The downloads are still thru the Adobe server).
You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

How can I securely erase the hard drive for PowerBook G4 running 10.2.3?

I'm about to sell a PowerBook G4 12-inch running 10.2.3 after I erased the hard drive via the the original software install and restore disk. There was no secure erase option like there is in subsquent versions of OSX. Is there a way I can do a 7 (or 35) time erase on this machine? Thanks!

See this Apple note. Secure erase was added in 10.2.3, but in a different place than later releases.

I keep getting a error message that claims I need firebug installed for pagespeed to run correctly.

Every time I load firefox I get the message that firebug needs to be installed for pagespeed to work correctly.

I have the exact same problem! With just one website. It's when I have a second account on it. I can sign in with my original (old) account, but not with my new account that I wish to sign in on. I've talked to a lot of people members of the website who have second accounts and this doesn't happen with them, it's only with my firefox. I've done everything I can to enable cookies, 3rd party cookies, no exceptions, etc.
But it must be something to do with my computer because I did the same thing on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome and it's exactly the same. :/
