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!
OS9 to OSX is a bit tricky, but it can be done.
Let me think and google for a few.
Before I do that, I should ask.
Can the os9 machine see the internet?
You have to have both the Network control panel and the Appleshare control panel correct.
If you have Classic, you might even be able to connect with that!
What are your settings in OS9? for the Network and the apple share control panels?
Can the os9 machine see the internet?Nope.
I do not have a "Network" control panel, or "AppleShare" control panel. AppleShare is part of the Chooser for me. I have the following control panels:
AppleTalk
Configuration Manager
Dial Assist
File Exchange
File Sharing
Internet
Modem
Remote Access
TCP/IP
OK, found "Network Browser", and it shows hope. It has a thingie for 192.168.1.1 which is the IP of the airport that it's plugged into. But not showing the iMac. When I try to open 192.168.1.1, it shows nothing. The other options are "AppleTalk" (empty), "Local Network" which has "Local Services" which is empty.
Curious, it has a "Connect to iDisk..." in a pop down at the top of the window... but of course OS 9 predates iDisk.
Did YouTube make some changes that prevent their videos from being downloaded? I've tried three different copy websites, and they're all returning errors on multiple vids.

Aha. I was misremembering. (My classic is down right now)
What is Appletalk set at? TCP/IP?
Also, if you go into your OSX machine System preferences, what is the IP showing for the ethernet setup in the Network section?
And is Appletalk turned on in that same section for your ethernet?
I don't know, connie. have you tried vixy.net?
connie, what are you using? I downloaded a bunch using tube tv on the mac last week...
OS X does Appletalk you just have to enable it. Under your network system prefs choose the Ethernet controller and there should be a setting for Make Appletalk Active or some such.
