Wireless USB-Stick: Netgear WG111 works on PB G4 but not on iMac G4-800

Hello!
Please help me to solve this weird problem: I found some drivers that allow me to use the WiFi-USB-Stick WG111 from Netgear on OS X. It works perfectly with my Powerbook G4-1.67, but it won't be recognised in the Network Status Pane of my iMac G4-800. On the pane "active ports" it is recognised, but not on the "Network status" pane. Obviously, on the PB-G4 it is recognised on both panes.
The application that comes with the drivers recognises the USB-stick, it detects my access point, but can't connect to it.
That's weird. What could it be?
I thought it could be the USB 1.0 port of the iMac G4, but apparently other MacUsers were able to connect with it on older G3-macs with USB 1.0 ports.
Help would be appreciated!

This is where the version 1.0 drivers are. They say G4 only, but I have it working fine on my G3 400Mhz iMac. It was really slow with 128bit wep encryption, so I backed off to the 64bit on my router and it is plenty fast. Go to remember that the encryption is handled completely by the CPU on thes little guys.

  • My WD My Passport SE USB 3.0 works with MacBook Pro but NOT new iMAC?

    The drive works fine on my MacBook and I can see it from the iMAC when I share it.  but the iMac will not recognise it, nothing in Disk Utility, when plugged directly in.
    WD are unable to help as I don't believe there is a USB 3.0 Y cable in the UK and the latest firmware, which supposedly fixes a 'read with Lion OS' issue, does not make a difference.
    Any helps????
    Thanks
    Paul

    I've done dwb's suggestion #3, removing the perfectly good WD bare drive from their perfectly bad enclosures and installing it in an enclosure from Other World Computing. Their enclosures always work; "name-brand" enclosures seem to be very troublesome.
    The cheapest option after resetting the PRAM/NVRAM is to get a powered USB2 hub as in dwb's #2. The Passport must get all power from the computer's USB port and, if you have a lot of USB devices attached, there may not be enough power left to turn the drive. A powered USB hub has an independent power supply so devices attached to it are not competing for power.
    Although I've not tried it, there are positive reports that using Disk Utility to reformat the drive for Macintosh (they are formatted for Windoze when they ship) made the drive behave without resorting to an enclosure or a powered hub.

  • Internet does work on other computers but not on Imac

    Hi, after an electricity problem my Imac won't make connection to the internet anymore. My macbook and a Toshiba PC still do.
    The Imac finds the network but says there's been a time-out while trying to make the connection.
    I called the helpdesk of the internetprovider but they said everything works fine, after having tested the connection.
    And of course they don't know anything about Mac...
    Thanks for any help.

    What type of modems and routers do you have?  A full make and model workup is necessary to determine the source of the problem.  Have you tried connecting directly to the modem by ethernet?  And what sort of electricity problem did you have?

  • Spry Menu insert works on MacBook Pro but not on iMac

    I am teaching myself Dreamweaver CS4, having been forced to migrate from GoLive.  Am building a website and want to use Spry Menu Bar.  Create page, save page, insert Spry Menu Bar, save page.  On MacBook Pro, menu bar appears with Spry Menu Tab attached.  On iMac, menu bar shows up WITHOUT Spry Menu Tab, which precludes the correct Property Window from appearing.  Anyone know how to get around this?  I called Adobe and they, without exaggeration, told me that they couldn't support Spry items and that I had to go the this forum for answers.  What BS!

    I called Adobe and they, without exaggeration, told me that they couldn't support Spry items and that I had to go the this forum for answers.  What BS!
    Its not the first time I hear that. Its clearly a Dreamweaver issue instead of Spry issue.
    In design mode, if you hover over the inserted menu bar, does it get a blue color? If yes, what happens if you click the blue label "Spry Menu Bar: Menubar{x}"? It should display in the properties panel.
    If not could please provide us with a screenshot?

    (Sometimes switching the security software off doesn't help, but doing the configuration does help. Not sure what's afoot with that, but it has happened with other security-package problems with iTunes in the past.)

  • IPhone 5 wifi works in one room but not the other.

    I have an iPhone 5 and the wifi is unreliable. It works in the room with the router but when I walk down the hall it doesn't work. I'm talking 20 feet away. So frustrating because the phone is almost worthless. Why would it connect but only in such close range? No other devices have this problem. Yes, I've turned the wifi on and off. Yes, I've restarted the router. Yes, I've checked the WEP. It just makes no sense that it would work in one room but not the next room. Help!

  • Ipod works on one computer but not the other?

    Can someone please help me? My ipod works on my laptop but not the desktop. When I plug the Ipod into the desktop it sometimes shows up in Itunes but says it's corrupt. Which it obviously isn't because it works fine on it's own when not plugged into a computer and it works fine when I plug it into the laptop. Also when I looked in my computer the Ipod would show up as drive j and it would flash on and off. Well, I tried plugging the Ipod into a different port and that worked as far as drive j stopped flashing on and off. I tried changing the drive name and it wouldn't let me because it always went back to drive j even after I changed it to drive z. Itunes is playing music and is up to date. I have Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit. Please help.

  • How do I troubleshoot installation/distribution of a LabVIEW .exe which processes data using Matlab when it works on some computers but not others?

    I've been given the unenviable task of troubleshooting and installing/distributing software written by a former co-worker. I've modified the LabVIEW code and built an .exe file. I've successfully installed the Labview .exe file on several computers, but it won't work on some others. What's more baffling is that I installed it successfully on one computer, uninstalled it, and tried reinstalling it with no success. In fact, it's a new error (Dr. Watson for Windows NT application error). It doesn't help that I have different versions of LabVIEW and Matlab on the target computers. Some have LabVIEW 5.1, some
    have 5.0, and some don't have it at all. Some have Matlab 5.2, some have 5.3 (R11) and some have 6.0 (R12). It's also not clear to me where the Matlab m files should be located. I'm not sure if it's a LabVIEW Runtime Engine problem, or if it's a Matlab problem. I've also wondered how LabVIEW and Matlab talk to each other. When LabVIEW calls Matlab, it seems that Matlab is running in the background. In other words, clicking on the Matlab Command Window and typing "whos" or any other command/variable doesn't work.

  • Site works in the app, but not in the browser.

    Hello iWeb experts,
    I've got problems.
    Last night I published my site. And while it appears, and functions, properly in my iWeb app, it doesn't do the same in Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
    Two issues...
    FONTS
    I chose Bellamie, Univers Condensed, and Marydale as my fonts. From reading these forums, I've discovered those won't wysiwyg on other computers if the fonts aren't available and open on them. So my two choices are to make every bit of text a graphic or to use a set of more universal fonts, correct? So my questions are...One, is there a list somewhere of fonts that will work in any browser? And, two, is there a short-cut, or easy way to transform type into a graphic without having to create image files?
    FUNCTIONS
    Here are the functions that work fine in iWeb but have gone haywire in all of the browsers I tested...
    • The type in one nav link appears smaller than all the rest.
    • Some links are active, others are not.
    • Rollover highlighting works on some links, but not others.
    • Most of the rollover links appear in the proper static color, a few do not.
    I've tested these functions on three Macs, one PC, and in the three browsers mentioned above. All of them show the exact same problems. So something must be going wrong with iWebs coding, or my host server musn't like iWeb.
    Any thoughts, suggestions on these two issues? Thanks much for any advice.
    John

    When I drag across your page most of your links do not change. The "text" portion of them doesn't change, either. Something is covering them.
    I can see that. But for the life of me, I don't know what could be covering those links. In my app, when I click in the area of the links, the type is the first item selected. Unless, possibly, it could somehow be the faint reflection of my black-and-white image (me & the ground I stand on). Hmmm...

    This I don't see. An outline? As in "an object outline," or as in "a list of dimensions and locations?" When I click outside my page contents, I get nothing.
    Thanks, QTK. I truly appreciate your troubleshooting here.

    You would have to change it back to your old email address in order to turn off "Find My iPhone" on your devices. After you changed it back to your old address and deactivated "Find My iPhone" (activation lock) you could change your Apple ID to your new address again. Now it should wok on all your devices.
