mac os x

This thread probably shouldn’t even exist, but maybe it ought to. :) Have you run into quirks in macOS/OS X which hint at residual, surviving code from as far back as the Mac OS Classic days? :) I just found one! In High Sierra, importing images from a device in Image Capture (an application...

Mac2K: The Years’ 2038 and 2040 Problems WikiPost struck: 31 January 2023 Last edited: 31 January 2023 OVERVIEW For folks who use PowerPC and even Intel Macs (prior to, say, macOS 10.15 Catalina), it’s never too soon or too late to start planning for the impending, dual Y2K-like hard limits...

So I recently got the Power Mac G4 Cube sent from hell but for some reason the cube has decided to be the biggest pain in computing history, No matter what I do I cannot get the Cube to boot the installer for any version of MacOS 9 or OS X except Mac OS X 10.4.0 and yes specifically 10.4.0. Let...

Hi, I need help with my Power Mac G5! I tried to make a bootable USB for Leopard but when I go into the boot selector, the drive doesn't come up, when I try to launch the installer from Mac OS X, it just reboots into the OS, and when I try to boot into it from open firmware, it just shows the...

I am researching the early development period of Mac OS X right at the beginning. There seems to have taken place a discussion amongst the developers about the Mac OS Y dock. A philosophical question whether "NeXT" engineers had it "right" with the dock. Some Macintosh purists seemed to be...

I just bought a new Macbook Pro with a 2TB internal SSD and I created two user accounts, one for music production (to keep things separated and focused) and one for everything else. I need to be able to access my data from both accounts so I assumed using the "Shared" folder would be the...

Hey guys, first post here and it's gonna be a bit of a monster... I couldn't find a unified guide on all this anywhere, so here it is. I hope it helps someone avoid the frustrations I had. I'm intentionally being verbose here so this is as approachable as possible, sorry if sometimes it seems...

I know that the first generation Apple TV runs a modified version of Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and it’s possible to get regular Tiger and even Leopard running as well. However, those versions run like crap due to a lack of graphics acceleration via the built-in Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 GPU. I think...

PPCMC 7 is now 1.5 years old, and has seen 25 updates since version 7.0. Recently it has come to my attention that something weird is going on with using VLC and QuickTime to watch YouTube livestreams. Apparently Google changed something, I think it’s to do with the codec/format somehow...

I bought an in-box ATI Radeon 9200 Mac Edition graphics card on eBay to use with my Power Macintosh G3 (Minitower 266 MHz) and got it in the mail today, so I decided to install it. I first put the card in the top PCI slot, and moved the FireWire/USB card which had previously occupied it into the...

I recently used my 15 inch PowerBook G4 (2005) running Leopard to watch 'A Christmas Story'. After putting it away, I decided to pull out my 2003, 15 inch PowerBook G4 running 10.3.8 to just poke around and enjoy a bit of nostalgia. Panther actually has aged quite well, but technically, its not...

Hey everyone, thanks for the advice on my last thread. Decided I'm going to end up attempting to install Tiger on my G3 Clamshell. (300MHz) That said, I need a Tiger install on CDs instead of a DVD, because of the age of the machine. I had someone mention that there was a CD-Burnable Tiger...

Hi, I have MBP 2009 13inch with El Capitan & Windows 10. 2 partition on 1 SSD . Now I bought another SSD and I want to clone my Windows partition to the new ssd. How can I do that?

Something’s been low-key nagging at me for a little while as I flip-flop between machines running Tiger, Leopard, and Snow Leopard, versus running stuff newer like Sierra (or Mountain Lion, via VMware): What’s the process behind the “Open With…” fly-out in Finder and why does it behave...

Hi there, I'm having an issue with a MAC that we use, it has recently been wiped as this was going to be issued to a new member of staff. When I try and reinstall the software, it comes up with the error "OX X can't be reinstalled because you aren't connected to the internet". I have gone onto...
