    QUARK - backward compatability

    Dual booting is, mercifully, pretty easy. It'll probably p**s your users off no end but at least you can blame Quack for their inconvenience. :-) Make sure you don't format your drive using UFS though. MacOS 9 won't be able to read it.

    QUARK - backward compatability

    I certainly agree on that front. We don't find Office such an issue Mac wise (We don't have much call to use it surprisingly enough) but Quark...... It baffles me that a company should have so many versions in the wild and not have means to save between the different formats. OK, Quark 3 and...

    QUARK - backward compatability

    It's a real pain in the backside. It wouldn't be so bad if earlier versions of Quark ran fine under OS X in Classic mode. Unfortunately, we've not had any success in this area. If anyone knows of any patches that will allow earlier versions of Quark to run under OS X/Classic, that would be a...

    QUARK - backward compatability

    A lot of the time in the 'media' sort of environment, it's because they specifically ask for files in a certain format and won't take anything else. Hell, we have clients that won't upgrade to the newest verison of Stuffit Expander and that's <i>freeware</i>. And, after all, the customer...

    Installing Panther over YDL, wiping YDL completely?

    I don't have a great deal of knowledge about the Yellow Dog distro in particular. But I can't see any reason why it would cause a problem with being overwritten by OSX. If the worst came to the worst, you could always use Disk Druid or Fdisk to delete the Linux partitions before you install OSX...

    Classic Apps not seeing shared files

    Thanks Cheryll. However, it's reading files from a Linux share that is giving me the trouble. What you've said is certainly worth knowing though for the future. I've since found out that a new version of Netatalk may solve my sharing issues. I must admit I'm a bit disillusioned with the...

    Classic Apps not seeing shared files

    I have a Linux server running Netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.1.3-42. The shared drives can be seen without a problem by all Macs not running OS X. However, on the OS X (10.1.5) machine there is a really crazy problem. Although all of the files on the shared drive can be seen from the desktop, if you...
