Where can I get missing drivers for cd/dvd on ibook

I got this apple lab top and the cd doesn't work, because the driver is missing.  Also, I put in an airport card and can't access internet,  I can't seem to configure it.  It says it's on, but hasn't joined a network, my network is on the list, but when I go to put in wpa/wpa2 and put in the pass word, it does not accept it.  Can someone help me on finding the drivers for this cd and how to configure my airport card.  Bill

Do you have the original system CDs that came with the iBook when it was new?
Do you have access to another Mac which is equipped with FireWire?
With an iBook this old, it could be that the optical drive, itself, has failed.
Also, please note that that model originally had a CD-ROM drive, so it is not equipped to read DVDs unless the drive has been replaced.

  • Oh my lord, where can I get windows drivers for Macbook Pro?....

    Does Apple really not have any place that I can download Windows drivers for the hardware in my August 2010 Macbook Pro?!?  I am trying to use windows through bootcamp, and I am having tons of trouble.  I know there are supposed to be drivers in the OSX DVD that came with my computer, but that is all the way back in Maryland and I go to school in Tennessee.
    <rant> Sorry if I seem irritated.  I just got over a total hard drive crash in this computer that isn't even 2 years old.  I have drives that are almost 10 years old in my PC desktop..  The drive that came stock with my Macbook pro was a total piece of crap in comparison to the cheapest notebook drives at Best Buy.  Really Apple?? 5400 RPM 8mb Cache Hitachi drive?? *Pukes in mouth* </rant>

    Sorry for the rant.  This is what happens everytime I have tried.  I actually have a booting Windows 7 partition on here already but it is barely running on the stock/generic windows drivers that are just there to get the OS through install. 
    I have an OSX 10.6 disk, but it is 10.6.0, and I wasn't even able to make that boot into the Mac installer when I installed OSX on the new hard drive.  I had to run my Macbook as a Firewire disk plugged into a Mac Pro and install it from there and update to 10.6.8.  I think this was because the 10.6.0 install disk doesn't have drivers for my 2010 revision of the Macbook Pro.  I doubt that the 10.6.0 disk has the right Windows drivers if it doesn't even have the right Mac drivers.

  • I running snow leopard on my MBP- where can I find the drivers for windows XP if I install them via bootcamp? Thanks!

    I running snow leopard on my MBP- where can I find the drivers for windows XP if I install them via bootcamp? Thanks!

    You won't find them until you are in Windows.
    Helps to read even print the guide.
    If you have auto run enabled, which is a security risk, the Apple setup.exe will run.
    Otherwise, just run that.
    Either use your OS X DVD, or use the drivers downloaded by Boot Camp Assistant.
    Two different ways to get them.

  • Where can I get recovery media for Equium A100-549

    I need help please, I bought an A100-549 over the internet, it did'nt come with any recovery media.
    It now has a serious virus and I need to restore it. Where can I get recovery media for my laptop?
    Cheers
    perfecto

    Hi,
    where did you buy it?? On Ebay? If yes then you must contact the person which sold you the machine. If you have no chance to get such recovery, then you will have to contact a
    local ASP to obtain a recovery.
    If you dont want to obtain a recovery, and you have a genuine Windows copy lying around, then install it, download the appropriate drivers for that machine from the toshiba website and install
    them afterwards you installed windows.

  • Where can I get the driver for my HP DE8A4L external USB CD/DVD drive?

    Where can I get the driver for my HP DE8A4L external USB CD/DVD drive? 
    On the label it says, Model HSTNN-PD06-91
    and
    HP PN: 518819-001 Rev.B
    I've had my Mini 110-1000 running our music system for a couple of years, no complaints.  When I wanted a CD/DVD drive, I purchased a DE8A4L external USB drive directly from HP.  It didn't come with a driver disc.  When I plug it in, the USB subsystem does not enable it.  Device Manager shows a yellow exclamation point, saying, "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware..."   It is running Windows XP Home Edition SP3.
    What gives with this device?

    Following up on tactic 2) above, I upgraded the BIOS from version F07 to the latest version available on the HP download site, version F19.  This went well, but unfortunately the system still does not recognize the device.
    When I try to Device Manager, and select the DE8A4L DVD device, and try "search for a device driver", it says it cannot find a better match for the driver already installed.
    This Mini 110-1000 only came with 1 Gb RAM, and Windows XP Home.   Is one of these a critical limitation for running an external USB DVD drive?

    Where can i get an ipad for free?

    Go to a store that offers store credit for refunds.  Buy something that costs at least as much as an iPad.  Return that item for store credit.  Use your store credit to get an iPad.
    Or do like everybody else who wants an iPad, and buy one.

  • Where can I get map updates for my NV-u44?

    My friend gave me a NV-U44 gps. Where can I get map updates for it?

    Hello Hawkhero,
    Welcome to the Sony Community.
    Currently there is no map update available for NV-U44. However, there is a firmware update available for your nav-u unit. Although the firmware update does not provide additional map data, it may improve the route quality of your map in certain situations. The firmware update is available from the Sony® Support Web Site.

  • Where can i get transport file for bc400's template programs to import

    hi
    where can i get transport file for bc400's template programs to import to miniwas
    would like to do the exercises for tw10 and tw12
    regards
    jan

    Thanks Spencer.
    I downloaded it, etc. and that didn't work. 
    It actually seems to work the same way as before I downloaded that driver, meaning, it prints but leaves it in the "# Document Pending" status.
    Since the wireless HP print server isn't working (No connectMgr.exe file) there's no connection and therefore the doc won't print.
    RE: Print/Server software out of date.  The software was working for many months after originally installing it on this laptop.  Then it just stopped.  Now it can't find the .exe file and that's odd.  
    If I could find that file I could just save it where it needed to be and I'd be good to go.
    Thanks for the help.
    Going to uninstall and reinstall again, just for fun.  I'll report back.
