Hi folks, just recently I reset my 5 authorised devices for my new M2 Pro mini. I've since picked up a 1st gen iPad in beautiful condition and wanted to set it up for sync with my Power Mac G5 running Leopard. However when I go to authorise iTunes (to add purchased music, apps etc) I get stuck...

Hello, i think i'm wrong something.. i try using this configuration https://gist.github.com/AdrianKoshka/c6c4a7718de43f6708711c7664e70aa0 but don't work.. because openbsd 7.2 say: no screen(s) found. What i can do for fix/resolve this? Thanks in advance!

Mac2K: The Years’ 2038 and 2040 Problems WikiPost struck: 31 January 2023 Last edited: 31 January 2023 OVERVIEW For folks who use PowerPC and even Intel Macs (prior to, say, macOS 10.15 Catalina), it’s never too soon or too late to start planning for the impending, dual Y2K-like hard limits...

This thread is for PowerPC Macs you’ve either been given for free; found for free; rescued (again, for free) from an electronics recycler; or best yet, a dumpster-dive find. (I’ve also started a parallel thread on the Early Intel Macs forum for found Macs of the Intel variety). Over the years...

Greetings Everyone! @pipetogrep and I recorded an episode with @wicknix the resident browser extraordinairem author of InterWebPPC , SpiderWeb, ArcticFox and others! We discussed several topics revolving web browsers , Linux on PPC and video chatting over the internet with iChat AV on Leopard...

A Rasberry Pi inside a PowerBook G4? Is this even possible? I have a 2004 1GHz PowerBook 17” and after trying Leopard, Linux, and Sorbet Leopard, I’m hoping to give my aging Mac a brain transplant. I’m having trouble finding wiring diagrams for the keyboard/ trackpad and display. It is my...

Sometimes you just need Git but you don't want to go through the hassle of compiling it on MacPorts. So here it is! http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/modern-git-tiger-and-leopard It's Git for Tiger and Leopard packaged using the "port mpkg git" command. I added the parts of the MacPorts...

It turns out finding old Sowndflower releases for PowerPC was a royal pain in the arse. I had to get them from the wayback machines's backup of the old Google Code archive (which is now down). I figured others may want an easier place to find them so I put the two versions that work with Tiger...

Hi, Just wanted to share the status of the project I have worked on for some months on trying to get the best possible Linux experience on the iMac G3. I was going to detailed it here in text, but then it was too long so I recorded a video instead! :) Video contents: Hardware specs Project...

Hi! happy new year! i hope can someone help me.. i'll search everywhere for this xorg.conf but nothing.. no one say how to configure etc... so.. can someone help me please? thanks in advance :)

Things which do not mix — either well or at all. I’ll start. :) A workbench/desk where a Mac disassembly is underway, when one gets tired for the evening and turns in without making sure all the tiny screws are properly secured away… …and a cat who, ever the opportunist, as cats are, knows...

Post the name (and download link if possible) of your favorite PowerPC app (even games work). If you have any questions reply to this message so I can separate questions from the other chitchat about apps.

Hi, this morning I tried to open discord website and login to it, but the website do blank/white screen on interwebppc. if someone can help me I will be really grateful! (photos with the problem)

Hi, as I wrote in the title, how i can make discord lite of dosdude work? I'm not a expert of "proxy" or anything else like that, I tried everything, but I had no success. if someone is kind enough to help me, I will be really gratefulI! (my machine is a iMac g3 with Mac os 10.4.11) :D

During the past year much has been done in Macports for PowerPC systems. We got gcc10-bootstrap (credit to @catap and @iains) compiler that builds with just Xcode tools and is able to then build the latest GCC – gcc12 12.2.0 confirmed on 10.5.8, 10.6 PPC (10A190) and 10.6.8 Rosetta (10.4.11 may...

Hi, Im planing to upgrade my mums main computer; she currently uses a G5 tower from around 2005, but it's not really able to go online reliably anymore and the DVI to ADB adapter keeps cutting out. I have a relatively clear idea of what my plan is but I figured I'd post here to check if anyone...

Hey, I just wanted to show a bit of my PowerBook/ MacBook Pro collection so far! I'm missing the Retina and Butterfly models and still looking to add them soon. Left to Right: 2001 15" PowerBook G4 Titanium, 2004 15" PowerBook G4 Aluminum, 2006 MacBook Pro 15" Core Duo, 2010 MacBook Pro 15"...

Hello, Very sorry to take up your time. Recently I have been really busy and have not had so much time to work with my PowerPC Macs. The early Intels get more attention and I have mostly been using them. I don't like having the PowerPC Macs just sitting around, and I was wondering if anyone...
