I'm having a frustrating problem adding my printers to my new IMac
(Intel). I bought an Epson R1800 printer and installed it successfully
via USB. However, I want to be able to print to it wirelessly so that I
can store it in my spare room. However, when I go into the Print Info

I'm trying to find a printer that'll work on Mac OS X 10.0 and am
having some difficulties.  All the printers I've found, thus far,
require 10.2 or later.  I'd upgrade were it not for the fact that the
only version I can purchase is the newest one - which my laptop doesn't

I have installed httpd 1.3.33 on Mac OS 10.4.5 and couldn't get CGI

I have just stumbled across a password-protected disk image, and I was
wondering if I can add passwords to my own disk images (or any other

Hi, All -
My wife has an iMac800 15" Flat Panel she wants to network wirelessly
(complaints about 7,324 feet of Ethernet Five cables - in a two-bedroom
apartment <grin>).

Can one stealth a port from the terminal? If so, what is the command

I have searched high and low for this in Mac, Linux, and Unix forums
and the question appears over and over. It draws many responses, but

My daughter wants one of these to use with Garage Band.  The Yamaha
PSR-295 says it has a USB connection but works with PC only.  Anyone
using something like this with a Mac?  Is there something that can be

Mac to run MSDOS and Windows. How do I boot the 7200 to DOS or Windows and
could that card be used in a Powermac G3?
