since I “upgraded” to the version of OSX that killed OS9. I have been lamenting the loss of a relational database C.A.T. I could go on, but I’m starting to waffle… My 9s and see the Tiger, which in turn can see the 9s – neither see the iMac and using the ‘afp://’ command doesn’t work as it should – it’s too complicated for what should be a simple procedure. Networking is 9 is easy – the chooser just works – except for when trying to connect to a Leopard machine. ![]() In terms of the OS experience, it amazes me that in Leopard you can’t print the contents of windows directly from the Finder like you can in 9. #Mac os 9 emulator for mac pdfQuark 7 on the iMac is yawn-inducingly slow in comparison its PDF workflow is rubbish too compared to 4.1s ability to integrate with Distiller 5 which also in comparison is blisteringly quick. Quark on the G4 screams! It’s lightly packaged, isn’t bloated at all and works efficiently and quickly. In the main now, I’m using InDesign on the iMac, but until this machine was purchased 6 months ago, I’ve been using (still am!) Quark 4.1, Illustrator 9 and Photoshop 5.5. My G4 Tower is a 1.25GHz MD running 9.2 and my 400MHz Powerbook runs 9.1. My MacMini, which I mainly use for surfing and emailing, runs Tiger. My new *main* machine is a 2.8GHz Aluminium iMac running Leopard. I’ve got four Macs on my desk that I use of a daily basis. Perhaps that’s deliberate since this is an OS9-oriented site.? you website seems to work really well in Mozilla 1.3.1 (the best OS9 browser). Why change? Just so i can have a screen that looks like frozen sperm.? ![]() #Mac os 9 emulator for mac proMeanwhile, i can capture DV video and export TV- or HD-quality work with Final Cut Pro 2 on my good ol’ Mac G4. It’s an industry, but i’m sticking with PS 5.5 which works great. Yet, these companies have to keep coming out with new versions or hundreds of people will lose their jobs. There’s no reason to keep revising a mature program. Have you tried running Word 2007? It’s a hideous mess. Photoshop, for example, which peaked at version 5.5 or 6 and MS Word which peaked at Word 98. Many apps peaked years ago and have since become bloated white elephants. Plus, i’ve got just about every application ever created for OS9, and some won’t run under OSX (or at best, they run glacially in classic mode). Not very good selling points as far as i’m concerned. The frozen sperm look of OSX has always disgusted me, and it’s much slower than OS9 too. Otherwise, it’s a solid, stable system and I can leave it up for days without an issue. The only other time I crash is when a web page won’t load on IE. I’ve found that Microsoft Word and Adobe Pagemaker don’t like each other to be open at the same time. I don’t have the crashes others complain about with OS9. OSX is still a mystery to me when it comes to deep issues. #Mac os 9 emulator for mac how toIt’s streamlined, fast, fun and I know how to fix it when I have troubles. I love my old OS9.1 and if/when my Blue and White G3 grinds to its final resting place, I’m gonna replace it with another one. #Mac os 9 emulator for mac mac osxI use my new Mac OSX to surf the web because Microsoft stopped updating IE and it simply cannot handle new video/graphic heavy pages. I have my own OS9 library, which is fortunate, because I could not find some software on the web anymore. For some reason, I saved each and every one of them. #Mac os 9 emulator for mac fullI’ve had software issues and bugs but luckily, a long time ago, I subscribed to MacAddict and each month it shipped a CD full of OS9 Apps and Utilities. I have Photoshop, Illustrator, all the Adobe products, plus the old IE Explorer 5.1. ![]() I started it in 1996 using Adobe Pagemaker (6.0). I publish a newsletter using a lovely and talented PowerMac G3 with a 400mz chip and OS9.1. My media center is a maxxed out Mac Mini with 3 TB of external hard drive space on a 26″ LCD TV. OS9 is still more true to Apple’s original philosophy, but OSX has been improving.īy the way, the search function for file names works much better in OS9, but the content find is better in OSX. I use the OS9’s for work and the Intels and Quicksilvers (dual) for fun and media). I am hoping the the future return of VBA to Office will allow me to switch fully, or I may need to bite the bullet and switch to Filemaker As it is, I have 2 white iBooks, 2 titanium G4’s, 2 Quicksilver towers, and 3 half-volleyball imac’s that can run my software. I also was not enthusiastic about running it under an emulator. I tried to port it to Office 2004 on an Intel mac but it was severely unstable. The biggest issue involves my M$ VBA electronic records set up that i created over the years. I use OS9 for a few programs that I wrote and did not take the time to rewrite in C as they were in Pascal. ![]() I own several Intel macs and a number of dual boot Macs. ![]()
