    scanner question

    I second that! I'm using a UMAX 1200S with an Orange Micro SCSI/FireWire adapter, and it works like a charm. Not only that, but the tech support is terrific. Tell Ed Hamrick if you find a bug and he'll have an update with a fix for it almost as soon as you finish sending your message to him...

    Can I develop with an iBook as is?

    You have two free possibilities: 1) If your iBook comes with the OS X Developer Tools CD, install them and you're all set. (I don't know whether or not it comes with the CD, but I suspect it does.) 2) If there is no Developer Tools CD, simply go to http://developer.apple.com and enroll as...

    10.1 Update not quite 10.1?

    My OS 9.2.1 Startup Disk control panel (v 9.2.3) also says 9.1.1 instead of 9.2.1 for my Classic partition (which contains OS 9.2.1). I have another small partition devoted to maintenance software, and it says 9.2.1 for that volume. Doesn't seem to have caused any problems, though.:)

    Where is my Classic disk?

    That was what I did on one of my early attempts, and it didn't work for me.

    Where is my Classic disk?

    No, an iMac does not come pre-partitioned--and since iMacs currently ship with both 9.x and 10.0.x installed, it would be interesting to find out if iMac owners have this problem after upgrading. FWIW, one of the many things I tried before arriving at my solution was to install 9.2.1 on the...

    Where is my Classic disk?

    This turned out to be the source of my problem. The solution was to put my Classic bootable system folder on my slave drive; my OS X partition is on my master.

    Where is my Classic disk?

    I've been running OS 10.1, with 9.2.1 on another partition as my Classic operating system, and they've been working fine together. Last night, for no apparent reason, the Classic preferences pane in OS 10.1 no longer recognizes my Classic partition as a valid Classic-bootable 9.2.1 volume...

    Terminal shows [Process completed] on launching

    Ever since I installed 10.1, I've been getting the message "[Process completed]" when I start up the Terminal.app, after which I can't do anything with the Terminal. I've tried everything I could think of, and only one thing seems to work: namely, to reinstall OS 10.1. This will get rid of the...

    Terminal problem

    I decided, based on some advice I had received from another source, that the easiest way to solve the problem was to reinstall OS X, as you suggested. This took just a few minutes, and the problem went away.

    Terminal problem

    I've been using the various versions of OS X since the Public Beta, and during that time, I've had occasion to make frequent use of the command-line interface in the Terminal. Recently for some strange reason, when I open a terminal window, it comes up with the "Process completed" message...

    HP LaserJet 4V & 5L Printing

    I've been using an HP 4MV (4V + Postscript) with OS X (10.0.4) with no trouble at all--but not on an NT4 server, which is one of the reasons that I didn't reply to your note. (Another is that you say you're using a 4V; I take it from that remark that you're using the straight 4V, without...

    disappearing windows

    I've been using OS X for a year now, and everything has been working as it should. However, within the past few days, a very annoying problem has cropped up, and I'd like to know if anyone else has had a similar experience and has figured out how to correct it. The problem is that if I have a...

    10.1 for download

    has anyone ported g77?

    I tried this, and everything worked beautifully--that is, until I tried to use some of the Fortran functions that would be found in the math library. For example, when I tried to use the function "sin" I got the following error message: ----- /usr/bin/ld: /var/tmp/ccAHaaaa.o has external...

    Toast Titanium

    robp-- What extensions relevant to Toast Titanium 5 are you using? I have a Sony Spressa CRX145E Firewire drive which is recognized by both iTunes 1.1.1 in OS X and Toast Titanium 5.0.1 in OS 9.1 (on my Classic partition, but booted directly into 9.1 rather than from OS X). However, when I...

    Help Viewer crashes

    Ever since installing the 10.0.3 update, I cannot use the Help Viewer; it quits unexpectedly immediately after I launch it. Has anyone else had this problem and been able to fix it, and if so, how did you do it?

    Using Norton Speed Disk under OS X

    Yes--but you either have to order the Norton Utilities 6.0 bootable CD or burn a bootable CD yourself with Norton Utilities 6.0 on it.

    Using Norton Speed Disk under OS X

    Using Norton Speed Disk under OS X

    If you purchase Norton Utilities 6.0 (available as a download from the Symantec online store), you can use Disk Doctor and Speed Disk on an OS X drive. HOWEVER . . . you MUST run it after booting up from OS 9.0.4! Do NOT run it while running OS X or Classic under OS X!! If you take these...
