Powerbook G4 Laptop, wont use PC card for wireless internet.

I have a G4 powerbook laptop and this model was actually put together prior to airport being installed. What I've been trying to do is insert a 802.11g card into the PC slot. I've tried both netgear and motorola and while it will detect both, it won't see it as a viable wireless internet option. I've been told that the Motorola card, wn825g, is one of the more successful options. Does anyone know a way to install the right drivers *or where to find* so that my network preferences look for aiport cards? I've been told that this card would be detected as airport but i've had no such luck.

You should be able to find the right Netgear driver ...

  • How do I set up my kids laptop to have to ask for wireless internet password everytime?

    I don't want my kids to be able to just click on a web browser and automatically connect to the internet. I want the wireless internet to require a password everytime in order to log on to the wirelss router.
    How do I do this?

    How do I do this?
    The AirPort Extreme (and other Apple routers) do not have this type of capability. Using the AirPort Extreme, it is possible to enable one or both of the following options:
    1) Require a password to to connect to the wireless network every time the network is accessed
    2) Set up daily time limits for each device that will be allowed to connect to the wireless network
    If you need an applicaton to control access to the Internet or specific sites on the Internet, you might take a look at OpenDNS as a potential solution.

  • Why wont my itunes let me use gift cards for balence i owe

    why wont my itunes let me use gift cards for balence i owe

    Hi Amitt_s,
    After you restored it to factory settings, did you restore as new or from a backup?  If it was from a backup, I'd try restoring as new to see if, without any of your previous data, the issue persists:

  • HT2731 i used debit card for purchasing i dont have credit card now its showing your payment method is decline use another payment method what shoul i do i dont have credit card

    i used debit card for purchasing i dont have credit card now its showing your payment method is decline use another payment method what should i do i dont have credit card or any another account

    I don't think that debit cards are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined. You could try contacting iTunes support and see if they can help, but I don't think you will be able to use a debit card : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    Are iTunes gift cards available in your country ? They are not available in all, and they are country-specific (they can only be used in their country of issue), but if there you could possibly use them as your payment method.

  • Can I use debit card for purchasing from iTunes in India?

    Can I use debit card for purchasing from iTunes in India?

    Hi
    There is a small discussion that iTunes takes debit card with a Visa/Mastercard logo.  I have no idea what the banking rules are in India.  But this may another option to try.

  • Using Smart Cards for SSPR

    I'm working on ForeFront Identity Manager 2010. I'd like to enable AD users to use Smart Cards to reset their passwords. I watched this video www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4aGLnZHZN4. From this video (minute 2), it's said that we could use smart cards to authenticate
    to Self-service Password Reset instead of Q/A gate.
    I looked at ForeFront Identity Manager Portal but I couldn't find where to configure to use Smart Cards for this purpose. I only found "SMS authentication gate" and "Question and Answer Gate". Can somebody help me?
    Thanks,
    Hai

    I am still interested in Clients or other Inquiries in this

  • Does Premiere Pro 2 use graphics card for playback?

    Does Premiere Pro 2 use graphics card for playback? I am using a 350W PSU, so my nVidia 6600GT runs in low-power mode, and my video playback in Premiere is choppy. The same .avi files play fine in a media player, so it can't be a disc issue I guess... Please advise, thank you!

    Only the latest CS5 uses SELECTED card's GPU for video acceleration
    >same .avi files play fine in a media player
    Playback is not at all the same as editing
    Use the FREE http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ to find out what codec is inside that AVI wrapper
    Anything other than DV AVI type 2 with 48khz sound is not going to do well in Premiere

  • I USE GIFT CARDS FOR PURCHASES(VISA, MC) NOW I CAN'T MAKE A PURCHASE. THEY SAY I HAVE TOO MANY CREDIT CARDS ON FILE

    They say I have too many credit cards on file for my username- purchase cancelled.  I use gift cards for gaming purchases (Visa,MC) so I have used a few, but its a gift card.

    This is most likely a security precaution since they probably assume that someone using multiple credit cards over a short period of time may well have stolen them. Go here:

    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store and request assistance.

  • HT1918 can I just use gift cards for itunes and not put a credit card on my account

    can I just use gift cards for itunes and not put a credit card on my account

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You can do that without any problem. That's what some people do to purchase content from the iTunes Store, App Store or iBookstore

  • HT5621 I often use credit card for iTunes but also use iTunes but systems won't let me change back to my iTunes. I have redeemed and gives me a balance but I am unable to access.

    I often use credit card for iTunes but also use iTunes but systems won't let me change back to my iTunes. I have redeemed and gives me a balance but I am unable to access.

    If you can't find anything for exactly that amount then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will remove the balance for you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • How to use time capsule for wireless back-up but not internet?

    Hello,
    I have a tower and recently a laptop at work. The tower is connected to our local network with an ethernet cable and the laptop with wireless. So, the internet connection is fine for both.
    I was hoping to use my time capsule to do time machine backups on my laptop. Do you have any advice on how to configure this? I do not want to use the time capsule to extend my Internet, as I believe my work I.T. would prefer to handle all access to their  network.
    Perhaps there is some documentation about doing this that you could point me to? I have not been able to find it.
    Thank you for your help.

    Your original question was How to use Time Capsule for wireless back-up but not Internet?
    There is no reason for you to connect the tower....or anything else...using Ethernet if your goal remains that same as you stated.
    If you are asking if you can backup the Tower using Ethernet, and not wireless, then you can connect the tower to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule....not the WAN port.
    Yes, it appears to work without plugging into my tower.
    Correct, it will work.
    I just have to select the network that it created. Of course, I have no access to the Internet while this is happening and it can not auto backup, unless I am on that wireless signal.
    As I stated, that is the downside to trying to back up without an Internet connection.  You have to establish another network...and backup over that network.
    If you are asking if you can stay connected to the work network while also backing up to your non-Internet "private" network, that is not possible.

  • I want to remove my credit card from my account and only use gift cards for purchases. How can I delete my card number?

    I want to delete my credit card from my account and only use gift cards.  How can I delete my card number?

    You'll want to get in touch with ITunes support for this. Normally when you start an account with the CC you can't remove it yourself. But by contacting iTunes they can get that taken off for you.

  • Can I upgrade iCloud storage using iTunes cards for payment?

    I have chosen not to use my credit card in conjunction with my AppleID, so I purchase all of my apps and media using iTunes cards.  Can I pay for upgraded iCloud storage using iTunes credits?  I would prefer to pay one year at a time using those credits, but if it needs to be monthly, that would be fine as well.  I just want to use the iTunes cards instead of a credit card for the payment.

    Thank you.  So to clarify, if I put a credit card on file for this AppleID, but I have plenty of iTunes credit to cover the monthly cost, then the monthly fee will be pulled from iTunes credits instead of my credit card.  Is that correct? 
    It sounds like the credit card is required in order to provide a backup payment option if the iTunes credits are all used up.  Is that also correct?
    You're awesome!! Thanks for the help.

  • HT3702 Is it possible to have one credit card and two debit cards on my itunes account so that we can use different cards for different purchases?

    Is it possible to have a number of cards (say one credit card and two debit cards) to be listed as the payment cards for my itunes account, so that different cards can be used for different purchases?  Or can you only have one card registered on itunes at any one time?

    So is there any way that three members of a family can share one itunes account but pay for their own purchases, other than inputting their own cards each time they make a purchase.
    No, there is no way to do that.
    Or if we all have our own individual itune accounts, can we share each other's music, or can you only sync your iphone/ipad/mac, with one itune account at a time?
    You can sync content from up to five iTunes Store accounts to any given computer or device. You just will each have to copy the content into your own libraries so you can sync to your devices and have your devices authorized to all applicable accounts.
    Regards.

  • Why not use gift card for family sharing?

    This family sharing feature seems great.  But long gone are the days where I had a credit card on file.  These days I only use gift cards.  But system really wants me to have a credit card to activate this family sharing?  Has anyone been able to do with pure gift cards?
    thanks

    Hi Kestelli,
    In order to set up Family Sharing the family organizer must have a credit card or debit card to use for billing. See this article -
    Family purchases and payments
    If a family member, including the organizer makes a purchase and has gift or store credit, that purchase is first billed to that credit. Family members purchases may not be billed to the organizers store credit unless they are the organizer. See this article -
    How iTunes Store purchases are billed
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
