Only use Single-Sided (400K) or Double-Sided (800K), Double-Density disks in 400K or 800K drives. You can use 400K & 800K floppies in Apple's 1.44MB "SuperDrives" because those drives automatically use a weaker magnetic field when writing to the lower density disks.

How to Add an EMAIL Address on YouTube in 2023 JDW 2023-03-26 | This video still applies in 2024, but the mindless "leadership" at YouTube took it upon their brilliant selves to eliminate the About tab on your YouTube Channel page! They now hide it in plain sight, which is infuriating because most people will overlook it. On any YouTube Channel page, the " Welcome! 〉" text link is the About tab replacement. Everything else in my video still applies. So why add an email address? I personally think it's important even if you have no videos of your own. Without it, you may miss out on Giveaways or be impossible to contact in emergencies. It's unfortunate YouTube doesn't force all accounts to display an email address, but at least you can remedy that by following this video. It's easy to delete too, if you change your mind.

It was definitely my best transaction experience on EBAY to date. Regarding the Apple logos missing on the Service Parts, they offered this helpful information:-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-"We wish Apple would put logos on their service parts but unfortunately they don’t. It would definitely help with consumers wanting to repair their own machines. We can only guess it’s because the parts are internal and only meant for authorized service providers to install. However, that may change soon as Apple has announced their 'Self Service Repair' where they will start selling their parts directly to consumers. "The number on the box is the Apple part number. The part is made in a factory in China. Not sure if it’s Foxcon, where they produce the iPhone, or Flex, in Singapore, or some other factory. They are pretty tight-lipped about it and since they ship the parts from their warehouses in United States, we see no addresses or information to give us any clues. We aren’t even sure if the parts come in similar packaging in other countries. All the parts come in the same plain brown boxes or envelopes, with the Apple part number label and green tape."-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-📚 REFERENCE• PHOTO I printed on paper to remember screw locations: bit.ly/3pFF733• MUSIC used in this video is "MydNyte" from the YouTube Audio Library: youtube.com/audiolibrary• iFixit LEFT Speaker GUIDE: bit.ly/3sJIDsj• iFixit RIGHT Speaker GUIDE: bit.ly/3mJU7YZ• $300 Apple Speaker Repair price mentioned here: bit.ly/3qxvfF6🙏 SPECIAL THANKS TO:• Stephen Arsenault (BetterBit), who kindly sent me the cute little Happy Mac PCB pin which affixes by a strong magnet.

Spicy OClock: 68040 Macintosh Overclocking [1 of 2] JDW 2022-02-28 | See how to overclock an LC575 motherboard in a Macintosh Color Classic Mystic using Kay Koba's Spicy O'Clock. Fast VRAM & OS-CON capacitors required to reach the highest clock speeds. Works with an LC040 (no FPU) or full FPU 68040 CPU as long as the motherboard has an XC or MC 88916DW chip. This video is PART 1. I had to suddenly cut this video short due to an ongoing family medical emergency. When I have time to make a future PART 2 segment, it will show a full FPU 68040, heatsink, and even greater overclocking performance that will surprise you.

You can change Line Sense on the motherboard or ribbon cable but not Horizontal Deflection Voltage. That's why we make Line Sense & Deflection Voltage changes on the Analog Board. • The logic board "resistor mod" mentioned at "powercc" is only used to get the LC550 or LC575 motherboards to work with the stock CC resolution of 512x384 instead of a software solution: powercc.org/mystic• Like 512x384? A software solution may be best. After doing the Mystic upgrade, I used a ResEdit-hacked System Enabler 065 v1.1 in System 7.1 to get it to work at 512x384: bit.ly/3HhyPtU• System files in 7.5.x, 7.6.x & OS 8.x require ResEdit hacks for the LC575 Mystic motherboard to work at 512x384 (not needed if you do a 640x480 VGA hardware upgrade as shown in my video): bit.ly/3AMcTVB• Stronger Analog Board possible? Yes! The LC575 Analog Board can be cut to fit inside a CC. It's more robust & durable than the stock CC board. METHOD #1 or METHOD #3 (described in my video) can be used with the LC575 Analog board. But it's a lot of work!

Juan and Thomas allowed me to mention their names here in the text description. The short video clip of a delivery man thoughtlessly throwing a boxed Mac onto a porch is also publicly displayed on the original poster's Twitter page too, which is why I included it (it had been shown in public on Twitter outside the FB group as of the time of this writing), but I couldn't get a reply back from the original poster, so I do not display the poster's name or Twitter URL. There's an expectation of privacy in private FB groups, and I've sought to respect that while also crediting those who were happy to have their names displayed here. No infringement or disruption to privacy was intended. Simply put, it's terribly unfortunate how old Macs are treated during shipping, even when they are packed reasonably well.🙏 SINCERE & HUMBLE THANKS TO THESE AMAZING PAYPAL SUPPORTERS!• Mauro Acciaccaferri (generous monthly contributor)• Attila Fehérvári (I hope to review Attila's 68k utility app in a future video!)🔴 I helped found the new TinkerDifferent forum.

How to Tinker Different inside a Macintosh SE & SE/30 JDW 2021-10-30 | See how to create an extension cable to pull the logic board outside the Mac's chassis. I close with a special announcement! And yes, the stock SE & SE/30 power cable really is comprised of rather thin 22AWG stranded wire!🔎 INDEX0:00 ATX Cable Usage11:34 Special Announcement🛠️ THINGS TO BUY...SILVERSTONE 24-pin Male-to-Female ATX Cable:• Black Version Amazon USA: amzn.to/3G1TKkE• White Version Amazon USA: amzn.to/2Z3q6KT• Black Version Amazon Japan: tinyurl.com/8rdjzrb9• White Version Amazon Japan: tinyurl.com/3xzhyzua• Silverstone Website: silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=371&area=en (Even their official specifications say it is 16AWG wire.)NOTE #1: Some ATX cable listings say the length is 30cm and others 35cm. This is very confusing, but the truth is the wires on the SilverStone ATX cables are 30cm, and if you add the connectors at either end, it's 35cm tip-to-tip. That's a nice length. You can go longer if you want the motherboard even further from your chassis, but the longer the wires, the more resistance and the greater potential for electrical noise. Even so, I doubt it will be an issue if you decide go with 45 or 50cm lengths (for the extension cable) with 18AWG wire, which is in addition to the length of your stock power cable.NOTE #2: Despite being advertised as a 16AWG cable, as you saw in my video, the SilverStone ATX cable is in fact printed with 18AWG, and the diameter of the wire seems to show that 18AWG is correct. SilverStone covered it with a braid and hoped no one would notice! Very naughty!WIRE KIT (to extend Speaker wires)• Wire Kit (Amazon USA): amzn.to/2ZaWOKi• Wire Kit (Amazon Japan): tinyurl.com/fstb23dxDEOXIT D5 Contact Cleaner (great for old, oxidized connectors)• Amazon USA: amzn.to/3f92aeN• Amazon Japan: tinyurl.com/7hckwrv5NOTE: I highly recommend this cleaner even when not extending your main power cable. If you see any kind of greenish color on your contacts, you probably will have high resistance connections and lower output voltages as a result. DeOxit D5 cleans all that gunk off your connectors quickly and easily, albeit expensively!💵 NOTE: Your price on Amazon (US only) is the same even if you don't click the "amzn.to" Affiliate links above, but if you do kindly click and purchase within 24 hours, Amazon may pay me a small commission on all qualifying items in your Cart (even items not linked above).🔴 Join us at the all new TinkerDifferent forum!http://tinkerdifferent.com🔴 Check out the TinkerDifferent YouTube Channel too!youtube.com/channel/UCR9mu3fzHXNgE4rkSjmpt3Q⚠️ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: All details in the Special Announcement section regarding TinkerDifferent are subject to change at any time by the Admin team, even though my statements in this video will obviously not change.

ZEN Movie, by Michael Green [1986] JDW 2021-07-22 | Composed entirely of MacPaint images from his ground-breaking book, Zen & the Art of the Macintosh, Michael Green used MacMovies from Beck-Tech to assemble this stunning movie animation. When first publicly shown at the January 1986 Macworld Expo, Beck-Tech engineer Henry Spragens was so impressed he paid over $1000 for a 20MB hard drive just to be able to store and playback the movie on his own Mac. This and more can be found at Henry's website here: audioimprov.com/AudioImprov/Macintosh/Macintosh.html💾 DOWNLOAD the original movie files here: macintoshgarden.org/apps/zen-movie📖 Zen & the Art of the Macintosh is freely viewable here: bit.ly/36r8tVA💵 BUY the original book on Amazon: amzn.to/3eFqpjH(Affiliate link)🙇♂️ Dear Subscribers and Friends, I sincerely apologize for the delay in releasing my next product video overview.

Micron Xceed Grayscale, MacroColor 30HR REVIEW [SE/30] JDW 2021-06-18 | I show how a Dell E1715Sc 17" VGA Display connects to a Macintosh SE/30 with a Micron Xceed video card, which also provides 256 grays on the SE/30's internal CRT thanks to the Grayscale Adapter.
