I'm a new user, but it seems from reading briefly that I'm not the only one with this problem.
I recently upgraded to OS X and am having trouble opening critical applications in OS 9. I can't find other postings with the same problems I am having. The appications I am trying to open are Adobe 6.0 and Microsoft Office (98). OS classic starts up fine, and the application will to load seem to load fine, but when I attempt to open a document in photoshop or power point, or try to acquire an image from a scanner in photoshop, the application quits and its icon disappears immediately off of the dock. When I restart the application, it will just bounce away on the dock merrily, until I force quit. Occasionally, the application will start and there will be NO OS 9 toolbar (grrrr.) I haven't tried restarting IN OS 9.2 yet and running the application from there, mostly because of fear (how do you get back to OS X after that (excuse my naivete)). If anyone can help me with this, it would be much appreciated (I am putting together a Keynote presentation, and I'm kind of screwed if I can't scan images). Cheers.
