Apple Fax disappeared
I bought a used PowerBook 3400 that came with a PC Card modem and Apple Telecom software. When I launched Apple Fax, I got a message that the Apple Telecom log in the preference folder was damaged and should be thrown away, however, I could find no such file. When I tried to fax my first document, I got a message that the fax could not be sent because it could not find Apple Fax and I should load it onto the startup disk, however, it already was on the startup disk. I reloaded the Telecom software and rebuilt the desktop. When I went to open Apple Fax, it was nowhere to be found. In checking the Apple web site, I can find no reference to any such program. The document that came with Apple Telecom makes no mention of it, yet I cannot send a fax without it. Argh! Why will Fax Sender not work without it, why is it not in the documentation and where do I get it?

Neither the card nor the documentation that came with it identifies the manufacture. It simply says 28800 PC Card. The icon says MC218 Card and I would judge to be generic.
I would still like to get a copy of Apple Fax since that is what it calls for if I could find how to get it. (a search on the Apple site came up with nothing)

The MC217 and MC218 cards are made by a company called COM One. The MC217 is a 14.4 kbps data/fax PC card and the MC218 is a 28.8 kbps data/ 14.4 kbps fax PC Card. An update is available on the COM One web page for the MC218
which upgrades it to a 33.6 kbps data modem.

The info on COM One is nice, but I did not find anything on their web page that helped with Apple Fax.
