    Open with Classic

    These are applications not data files. It's like sometimes Mac OS X is not understanding where the resource forks are. My Powermac G4 died so I have moved Classic to my Mac Mini. I drag the archives off my flash drive to the HD as I have always done on my G4. I extract them on the Mac's hard...

    How to download files on a Mac OS 9 computer?

    A lot of YouTubers recommend "The Old Net" but I have never tried this myself.

    Can I turn off Virtual Memory for Classic, like you did in the real OS 9?

    Open with Classic

    Odd it seems that feature tells the OS to make a copy, why that makes things work I don't know.

    Open with Classic

    Hmm I could not find the setting "run as classic" but when I marked them as 'Stationary Pad' they worked. Some of them where HyperCard stacks and so needed that installed.

    Open with Classic

    Is they a way to open a program with classic. Some programs I am downloading are opening in Automitar or a text editor. I can't find the option to "open with classic".

    Which "useless" extensions are not worth the RAM and time to load nowadays?

    I don't know how to correct the Gamma for modern VGA displays without 'ColorSync'.(or am I thinking of something else). Also what's the point of not ueing a Zip drive? it's uniquely vintage Macintosh.(sorry I grew up in the 90s :))

    Install a System Preference Pane OS X.2

    I used 'sudo rm -r' to remove them but that caused them to still show up in prefence pane but they are unusable. What is the 'correct'(offical) way?
