I have moved from an IMAC to a PowerBook G4 and now my version 7.0.2 of Pagemaker will not boot. It runs in the Classic environment along with Word and Photoshop which have made the move successfully; however, the Pagemaker does not get past the opening screen of title and authors and then disappears. Do I need a special patch or firmware for PM to run on the PowerBook?

Thank You,

PageMaker is an application. Applications don't boot, they launch. Also, there is no PageMaker 7.0.2. The latest version for the Mac is PageMaker 7.0.1 which works perfectly fine in the Classic environment. The most recent Windows version is PageMaker 7.0.1a. When you transferred the app to your PowerBook, you probably did not include all of the support files. You might do well to simply reinstall the app in the Classic environment. When you do, it will work like a charm.
 
Make sure your Classic/OS 9 system on the new Powerbook you've transferred to has 9.2.2 installed (this version works the best with OS X) and all necessary extensions running.
