    Bootable OS X CD copy?

    I just tried that this weekend, but I was burning from a disc image. The disc image of the first Jaguar disc is 708 MB. So Toast obviously said there wasn't enough free space on my machine. When I mounted the disk image, the CD is around 648, but there's no way to make a device copy from either...

    Rendezvous Issues

    I'm having a few issues with rendezvous that I can't seem to nail down. Here's the spec of the set up. Two Quicksilvers networked via 4 port ethernet hub. Quicksilver 867 has a dial-up connection that I share with the 733. The 733 has a USB printer that is shared with the 867. The 733 also...

    10.2 is cool, but…(some sharing and rendezvous help?)

    Duh...I did the archive and install, so yeah, those preference panes that installed at the system level and not the user level need to be added back. So I guess I'll have mouseworks back in a minute. And I'll re-install my tablet drivers as well. But ASM still doesn't work :) Any other info...

    10.2 is cool, but…(some sharing and rendezvous help?)

    There are some things that I can't get to work (maybe because I just don't know how?). I have one G4 connected to the internet via internal modem. It's also plugged into a hub that is connected to another G4 across the room. The internet sharing thing is cool simply because now my wife can...

    Can't Boot from OS X Install Disc

    I'm trying to install OS X 10.0.3 on a G4/400 (Yikes). It won't boot from the install CD. Upon restarting I get a gray screen that just sits there. After removing the CD the screen stays gray until I hit the reset button to reboot. The machine boots from a MacOS 9.2 CD and currently has 9.2.2...

    How do you properly backup and restore "Users" files and folders?

    Create your users using the system prefs pane with exactly the same username and exactly the same password...would there be any reason to create your users in exactly the same order as another reply recommends? I'm cool with all the legwork, but it still seems a bit of a hassle for a less...

    How do you properly backup and restore "Users" files and folders?

    Perhaps the initial trouble lies in the idea that once you reinstall the OS you have to create new users? It never occurred to me to just drop the backed up users folders back in the "Users" folder. For some reason that just didn't come to mind. But now it sounds quite reasonable. I assume...

    How do you properly backup and restore "Users" files and folders?

    Okay, this may seem silly, but there's no such thing as a dumb question. I've been working with OS X since the beta days and I'm still stumped on this one. What would be the proper way to backup and restore your users and their files? I came across this problem when my dad's HD needed a...

    Classic won't start, but OS 9 will...

    As I mentioned previously, OS 9.2.2 runs great, with the standard extensions set as well as the base extensions. Which is why I find the problems so puzzling. It's as if Classic just can't finish booting up all of the sudden. There has been no software added to the system folder so I'm at a loss...

    Classic won't start, but OS 9 will...

    Or could that be MouseWorks? I don't know what the MouseWare drivers are. He's got a Kensington mouse, but I use MouseWorks at home and at work and it hasn't given me any problems in OS X or in Classic or in OS 9. I'll check into USB Overdrive though. Thanks...any other comments or suggestions...

    Classic won't start, but OS 9 will...

    Here's one that's a little over my head. My dad can't get Classic to run anymore. He's on a G4/400 (I think), with OS X 10.1.2 and 9.2.2. Well, he just ran the 9.2.2 update and it didn't fix the problem. Before that he was running 9.2.1. Here's the deal. He launches classic and it gets all...

    Epson C80 and OS X Print Center...

    I just did a reinstall of X and it works now. That's a hard way to fix the problem though. I backed up all the Users and such and erased the X partition and did a complete reinstall. When I put the Users files back I had neglected to name all the users exactly the same which resulted in several...

    Epson C80 and OS X Print Center...

    I've recently tried to add an Epson C80 to my Printer List in the Print Center and I get an error..."An unexpected error has occurred. -9624" So, it won't add the printer to the list. I've already downloaded and installed the most recent drivers. The thing is, this is exactly what it did with an...

    Printing problems...

    I've got a lexmark Z23 and I've found that the only way to reliably print from an OS X application is if Classic isn't running. If I'm in a classic app it prints fine, but in order to print from an OS X app I have to quit Classic. Hope that helps.

    Help? What's happened to classic?

    I just did a re-install...like you said about 30 min. Oh well, the strange thing is, when I was running off of the OS 9 CD I went to my Startup Disk control panel just for kicks...and low and behold, it showed my "unblessed" System Folder. The weird thing was it showed it as a 9.1 System...

    Help? What's happened to classic?

    I was working this morning and was attempting to launch a URL from within Eudora for OS X. I'd forgotten that for some reason it tries to open links with IE 5.1 for OS 9, not X...very strange, but anyway...it immediately started launching IE in Classic...I let it continue launching and in the...

    Sleep and Sound problems with 10.1.2...

    I just want to confirm that I'm not the only one with this problem... After I updated 10.1 to 10.1.2 a couple of strange things have started happening. First, when the machine goes to sleep for a period of time, typically about a half an hour or more, the audio quits working. The volume...

    This is a major problem!

    I noticed this problem after updating to 10.1.2. I've updated both my home machine (G4 867) and my work machine (G4 733). Both experience the same problems listed below. After the machine has been asleep for a while, it becomes impossible to connect to my ISP. It connects, then immediately...
