Okay, ne'mind. I used Explorer, logged in, the accept button came up, and I'm in. Sometimes oblique is better.
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I don't know what to tell you, Sophia--if the helpdesk gets back to me, I'll pass on their advice--best I can do. Sorry!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't have explorer!
What do you have?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
But that way you have to know what the MAC address of your printer is to work out which one it is, or click on all the MAC addresses if your DHCP server software does a lookup...
Well, okay. I mean, I have a little list with all the MAC addresses of all my devices, and they're named anyway, so I'd just have to look at the one without the LoTR theme, but I realize everyone is not me.
Printing a network setup page should only be a few clicks deep.
And yes. Fine, this is probably simpler. Heh.
But yes, since it is also possible to share a printer that's hooked up to a computer that's on your network, but that's not the way you will prefer to do it in the future, when you're troubleshooting, hook it up only to the the ethernet.

And it doesn't work in either of those?

All devices don't report their names, though, so it can take some research. If the device knows its IP address, I usually just ask it directly.
Metaphorically speaking.

Sometimes zooming out on/shrinking the screen will make a button visible and selectable even though you could not scroll to it before.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My printer at home is dead, time to replace it. What brands do people like for wireless all-in-ones (w/ flatbed scanner) that play well with Macs?

Art Crawl!!!
Argh. Trying to get the SA Art Collection in order. There is something collection related on a bunch of 3.5" floppies. We actually have in our office computers with floppy drives. (Not my computer but some of the student computers.) But they are XP and these disks are old enough to be an older version of windows - is there any way that I can get at the information on those disks?
