Technical Guide: Searching Digidesign Archives via the Wayback Machine

1. Accessing the Wayback Machine
Go to https://archive.org/ and enter the following in the Wayback Machine’s search bar:

digidesign.com/*
2. Filtering Search Results

Use the "Filter results by..." field to refine results.

If you don’t find what you need, manually browse the archived snapshots.

3. Expanding the Search with Subdomains
Since the Wayback Machine does not support wildcard subdomain searches (*.digidesign.com/*), you must check for archived subdomains manually:

Find available subdomains using:

https://subdomainfinder.c99.nl/scans/2024-10-02/digidesign.com

Once you have a subdomain, enter it directly into the Wayback Machine, e.g.:

archive.digidesign.com

4. Modifying Search via the Browser’s Address Bar
To refine searches dynamically, update the URL directly in your browser’s address bar. This allows for more precise control over search parameters and navigation within archived snapshots.

Got it..thx

That's very odd.  Must be something the modern networking on the phone expects, but the airport card doesn't support.  I'd expect it to either work fully or not at all!

My workaround for using older airport cards is I kept a very old linksys wrt router around, and have it on my network using the older encryption that the airport card in my tibook supports.  I only power it on when I need to connect with my old machines, as otherwise it could be relatively easily cracked, if I left it on 24/7 like my primary router.

One option is to get a bridge adapter. This is a modern device that connects to WiFi but bridges it to Ethernet. Search "Vonets Bridge" on eBay.

Thanks Jubadub for your input! Usually yes, but I really would like to have a usable hotspot everywhere where my mobile phone is. ;)

robespierre, any more hints how I could get it running, and what to do exactly?

Recently I have issues using my German ViaVoice (I have 2 licences) at my Ti. Perhaps it is just because I have no Mic with line level, or there are issues with 9.2.2 or with the Powebooks in general, …? So I was searching for updates and really found one to v 1.0.2. (which did not help me).
But I learned as well that there is a ViaVoice 2.01 "Enhanced Edition" in English! that I did not know that it is in existance. And I think there was only the English one. Anyway, the "Archive CD/DVD preservation project" is providing it, and anybody who needs speech recognition in English can download and use it as "Enhanced Edition"!

This software was 200 bucks back than when I bought my first one, and after training it a little bit the usability is quite well.

xerograph you are great! Sadly the numberss do not work with the "MetaPro v2.0.6" linked above. But as I anyways would love a German version, perhaps you have the installer as well?
