I have been trying to use Macproxy to get my Macintosh Plus on the web. It works when I search URLs directly or use search engines, but practically 99% links do not work. I either get a 404 error, or the page sends me back to Google's home page. Has anyone tried this? Do I have to change...

I have been playing around with RaSCSI on my Mac Plus and it has been loads of fun. But I am noticing that some apps run choppy. For example, SmoothTalker sounds off, like there is a 0.1 second pause in between each syllable. In addition, the performance seems to be much slower compared to my...

I have been using a scsi2sd v5.1 for a while now and it has been a wonderful device, but I want to upgrade to the RaSCSI. Is there a way to transport my 2GB boot drive image from the scsi2sd and put it on the RaSCSI? I’m trying to avoid having to install System 7 using native hardware...

I want to try and use NCSA Mosaic 1.0.3 with Webone http proxy. Unfortunately I don’t think mosaic has the option to use a proxy. Is there anyway around this? Thanks.

Being that it is very rare to find hardware upgrades for a mac plus, is there any programs/extensions that anyone can recommend to improve the speed or memory of a 68000 mac or am I just dreaming? I have heard of things like RamDoubler but do these programs actually work? I am trying to get the...

I am trying to get adobe acrobat 1.0 to read modern PDF files at least somewhat. When I try to open a modern PDF, it says that there is some issues with either the font or format or something. Does anyone know a way to make modern PDF files comply with the original standards of acrobat 1.0? Some...

I’m looking for a copy of AOL 2.6 so I can test out the dated web browser with my proxy server. But I can’t find it in a form that StuffIt 4 will expand. All copies that MR has don’t work. It would be nice to be able to download the disk image but Ik that’s asking a lot. Thanks!

So I went to start my Mac plus this morning and a bunch of weird things happened. The Mac didn’t recognize my SCSI2SD (which usually works) and the power light on my Asante EN/SC wasn’t lit. I rebooted it and all worked fine. Until... The printer (an ImageWriter II) started printing a bunch of...

Does anyone know where I can find some sort of accelerator for my slow Mac plus? I don’t care how small the improvement. Is there a possible way to build one like a brainstorm?

So I’ve been playing with my Mac plus a lot recently and I’ve noticed this high pitched whistle that the machine makes when I turn it on (it also appears seemingly out of no where while in use). I read some forums and consulted the dead Mac scrolls; I think it’s either the fly back transformer...

So I just got stunnel working on my pi so I can now read my gmail on my Macintosh Plus using Eudora Lite 1.x! There is one problem though, I cannot send emails because of what I believe to be a security problem. I am not sure what's wrong but I get this error message (see below) when the mac...

So I’ve been trying to get a working email client on my Macintosh plus but haven’t had very much luck. Pretty much all email programs for 680x0 don’t support SSL/TLS so I’ve been trying to set up stunnel on my raspberry pi and also tried it on my windows server. I can’t figure out how to set it...

So I recently got my Macintosh plus working with my Asante EN/SC network adapter and I’ve noticed that it does not have a power switch. As these cards are pretty rare should I just leave it on when not in use? I have it plugged into a surge protector and it’s in a clean well ventilated...

I have been trying for months to get my rare Asante EN/SC to work with my Macintosh plus to no avail. I have the adapter hooked up to a 10BaseT hub and I can even receive packets in the troubleshooter. But when I bring up Macweb it acts as though there is no connection; error 500. Any help is...

I have had this Ethernet to SCSI adapter for a little while now and cannot get it to work. I set up mactcp manually and everything. Installed the Asante 5.1.2 drivers and software. It even receives packets. But when I open macweb or any other web browser it doesn’t want to load any page (error...

I recently got a SCSI2SD V5.1 and have been having trouble setting it up with my Macintosh Plus. I have it setup to emulate a single 1 GB Seagate drive and am trying to use Lido 7 (booted off of floppy emu) to format the drive. I have already edited the 3 special setting for the Macintosh Plus...

I recently got my Macintosh Plus working with all 4 MB of ram. I have an Asante EN/SC Ethernet to SCSI adapter and want to put it to some use. I hooked up everything and downloaded the EN/SC EtherTalk software along with AppleTalk 57.0.4. Installed it on system 7.1 and also got MacTCP 2.1. I...
