I am running OS X and 9.1 on a new iBook CD-RW. And I have to say it work's great on one partition. Even better than it does on two on my G3 desktop. The only thing bothering me is that it doesn't wake up from sleep in OS X mode once in a while. I really don't know why it shows this behaviour...

They do... and that is the great thing about .kar files. They not only include the lyrics - it even changes colour when it comes to singing! Greco

Not only an OSX-Feature - more QT!! But still... to any of you who didn‘t know, you can simply open any ".kar" file found in the net to sing Karaoke to MIDI-Music. It's working great - especially with a big screen or one of the new iBooks that can be connected to your TV-Set. Sure it will be...

Hello Skaneby! Well, if you have the same problem I had, it should be easy to solve. Just manually open Disk Copy from Applications/Utilities. You then get a new window where you can drag on the files you would like to mount. (e.g. your unmountable dmg files). If this doesn't work, try...

The culprit is SLM PPC. Try deselecting it (starting from system extensions/classic -extension manager on) in the extension manager on boot-up. If it works you are one of the unlucky users that, for whatever reasons, have a bulky Open Transport in Classic. I belong to this group too...

The easyest way would be to log into your machine as root. You won't even have to bother using Terminal though. But you will encounter one problem - root has its own password that is hidden to you. But there is a nice workaround. Step 1: Go to applications/utilities and open NetInfo Manager...

In contrast to the beta, OS X Final does not offer copy & paste of icons any more. The icons simply don't appear in the information window. It might have to do with my version, since I use 10.0.1 German. Any solution or work-around would be tremendous! Later, ElGreco

I just ran the software update to get OS X 10.0.1. It went fine and the installer told me that the process had finished successfully and forced me to reboot. Now, when I open the Information from the Finder Menu, it still says D1-10.0.0. Is there an explanation for this? Later, ElGreco

Hi! I had the same problems and got a nice workaround from macfixit.com. Apparently, classic freezes at the end of startup or while working withit after having booted fine, when there are to TCP/IP settings. The culprit seems to be open transport, but at the moment everything is very, very...

Hi! I found two oddities in OS X Final 4K78, that strike me as neat. 1. Look in your home directory unter "Sites". Click on index.html and you will find the MacOS Help opening the following text: "Welcome to Mac OS X Personal Web Sharing (This page is a placeholder. Real content will come...

Hi you lucky owners of MacOSX! I will have to wait until the 20th of April, because I ordered it from a Dealer who is forcing me to wait, because he sent it to the wrong direction. (¡Muy mala pata que tengo!) I should have bought it directly from a dealer!!! But back to the Topic! Has...

And my HP G85? A combined printer, fax, scanner They didn't even figure out correctly to write a driver for OS 9.1. System freezes when you try to print out multiple pages in reverse order. Let me recommend NOT to purchase this printer. OSX or not. Apart from the driver, the integrated...

I think this solution is fine for G4 owners. Unfortunately, it cannot be used on G3s for their different structure. I am sure Apple is aware of that. But until they don´t present an elegant way out, I am still looking for a boot loader. Can anyone help?

Hi Beta-Testers out there, did anyone discover a boot-loader similar to this linuxPPC thing that would let me choose on startup (before booting an OS) which one to load? It is a bit awkward to boot OS 9 to determine in the "system disk" control panel to use OS X and vice versa. Thanks a...

That´s an easy one. You will find the terminal window icon either in your dock or go to your applications folder. In there you will find the utilities folder containing the terminal window. That´s it. And to all the guys who postet in here. My DSL-Connection is now up and running. Thank you...

Startup Disc works fine. But it´s a little awkward to boot OS9 first to select OSX. Especially because the Startup Disc in OSX´s preferences crashes every time I open it. Isn´t there a chooser to select the boot disc right at startup? I think of something similar to the Linux Boot Loader...
