I'm a dude that can't speak and needs a way to talk to people that only have a fax or phone number. I originally didn't even know Mac osx could do that. Do I just unhook my land line and plug it into my laptop and go to the printer/fax option? Would that work or do I need a designated fax number? I'm running OSX 10.4.11.

I've tried Windows Vista and 7 on SL using VMware Fusion, and both have told me that my score was 1.0 because of the graphic card.
Is there any way to trick the windows, or it is really the graphic card is not advanced enough on the MBP?
Lately (started this morning), I've been getting some weird startup problems during startup. When pressing the start button, the fans spin to the max endlessly, most of the time the screen stays black without the Apple chime and computer doesn't start. After three times of shutting it down, it usually starts but performance isn't quite the same and i immediately get this error.

Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again.)
Im really confused it always worked without a problem and now I get this the way to fix it is to restart my airport but then after like 30 min I get the same error.. Its also impossible to do time machine backups as well unless I restart the router a bunch of time.

Have set up the preference/fax area.
When a fax is sent, only a part of a page is received.
Have verified settings, but cannot find the problem
For some reason I'm not aware of, I cannot send faxes from my computer. I've checked the settings in system prefs and they all look OK. The modem sounds when connecting to send, then the fax is stopped; no alert, nor an explanation telling me something is wrong.Each time I want to fax a document I get the same result: no fax goes out; the fax list shows the job was stopped and put on hold till a later time. After resuming, the fax still does not go through.The settings in Print and Fax are supposedly correct: all jobs are to be sent using internal modem (driver version 1.0; PPD file version 1.0).
The document I need to fax shows in the print dialog window that it will use the internal modem, it will not wait for dialing tone (not alwayws, see below), will use tone dialing, with the sound on.After starting the job, sound comes on and I can hear the modem dialing, the fax status in the menu bar shows "connecting" for some time, then there is no more sound, and the job stops.I've tried faxing to a different number, and the same thing happens.There is something I've noticed that may have a lot to do with the problem:When the modem starts, "the modem could not detect a dial tone" shows up, although I've unchecked "Wait for dial tone before dialing."Fax and internal modem icons show an exclamation point.The Fax List window shows the internal modem stopped.The Internal Modem window show no active jobs; the document I've tried unsuccessfully to fax shows in completed jobs.
If I try to resume faxing while in the Internal Modem window, the Stop Jobs icon is highlighted with a red exclamation point. Cannot even delete the "stopped job."Sys Prefs>Print & Fax>Fax tab>Set up Fax Modem... button, gives me a Fax list Window where I can highlight it there & Start/Stop jobs shows; double clicking on the name will open another WindowThis window shows Delete, Hold, and Resume icons grayed out, therefore they are non-functioning.Only Start Jobs is fully shown, but clicking on it brings back the Stop Jobs icon.
I?ve tried resetting the printing system in Mac OS X 10.4.11I tried reinstalling OS 10.4.11 combo update as a last resort in order to see whether it would correct the problem.Tried sending another fax to my office but it didn't go through.Again, it shows as a stopped job in the "internal modem" window saying it could not detect a dial tone.This "dial tone detection" alert also shows when:1 - sending a fax from an application such as TexEdit, in the pull down modem window and it does not matter whether I deselect it; it just keeps on showing again. The modem shown on this window is "Internal Modem" and there is an exclamation mark next to the name;2 - looked at modem settings probably in system prefs (I forget exactly where) and deselected it but it keeps showing when setting up the document to fax.I know the modem shouldn't be "paused." It should be "idle" but:? Clicking on "set up fax modem" in system prefs brings the fax list up where Internal modem shows "stopped", not "idle." This window shows "Delete", "Show info", and "Start Jobs" after having deleted the fax which I was not able to send.? The fax list of Internal modem shows all faxes I've tried to send as "cancelled" and this list is not editable.
? If I try to resume faxing while in the Internal Modem window, the "Stop Jobs" icon is highlighted with a red exclamation point. Cannot even delete the "stopped jobs" from before the OSX re-installation.
? Also before the re-installation, only "Start Jobs" was fully shown, but clicking on it brought back the "Stop Jobs" icon.In any case, things keep being pretty much as they were before the re-installation.Does anything above tell you what is going on? I wonder what is going on here and whether someone has a clue about it and how to overcome the glitch.iMac 2GHz power PC G5; Mac OS X (10.4.11); 250GB HD; 300GB and 160GB FW external drives; HP Deskjet 6988 printer; Epson Perfection 1260 scanner

Solution to making Mavericks email the received faxes?
I am using a USB Modem. I can receive faxes. They go into the Faxes folder I designated. I have the box checked to forward the received faxes to an email address (as I did in Mountain Lion), but the faxes do not get forwarded.
I recently changed ISPs and installed a new modem. I used to be able to print to a windows computer connected to a canon printer (using gutenprint driver). Now, I can't connect to any shared folders and am unable to print to the shared computer - Printers and Faxes can't find the network computer.

I am needing an AIO color laser that prints, copies, scans and faxes for my Tiger and soon to be Snow Leopard MacBook. Price is not an object (for the most part). I've been looking but have found anything that has a fax.
View 1 Replies View RelatedBefore I got this new Snow Leopard I would hit f8 to bring up spaces, then move the cursor to say the upper left space, and then hit f8 again to move to that space. Now though, I have to move the cursor to the upper left space and then actually click the mouse button on it to go to this space. If I hit f8 without clicking, I just come back to the space Im already on.
Why this bother me is because first of all I work quicker the other way, no biggy though. BUT before I could also drag a file from one space to another because I could switch space only by using f8 and moving the cursor. Now when I have to click on the damn thing it'll "release" the file Im trying to drag, so I cant drag between spaces in the same cool and quick way.
In Windows XP/Vista, if you are navigating in a folder containing pictures, and you click any picture, it opens up Windows built in preview program. Much like OSX. However, in Windows, you can click "Next/Previous" within that program to quickly flip through those photos. Why do the up & down arrows in OSX not work? I still prefer my iMac to any PC I have owned, but this one little thing bugs me to no end. Is there a setting I can change somewhere to make that work like in Windows?

When, oh when is Apple going to include a comprehensive merge feature in Pages. Yeah, I know we can merge Address Book fields into Pages docs, and that's cool and works flawlessly. But I've got literally 100s of WriteNow template docs and data docs that I created back in the mid-1980s to use in my estate planning practice - wills, trusts, powers of attorney, health care surrogates and tons of forms letters we use every day.
But the era of OS 9 applications like WriteNow and INControl which have been orphaned and un-supported for at least 12 years and Classic mode is soon to end. And here I am tied to the proverbial wagon wheel unless Apple completes Pages as a comprehensive office word processor by adding a full featured merge function. With the release of Bento, I thought it would be the companion data base for mergeable template documents in Pages, but I can haven't seen anything that looks like it. Please Apple, get on the stick and get a release of Pages out with a full featured merge function in it to save us long time, loyal Apple fans from the horror of having to use MS Word as a primary word processing application.
