Online, you can find disk images, for Word 5.1, Software has a 10 year copyright restriction, after 10 years, all software becomes public domain, that means its free to exchange.

Personally I got away from Word, way back years ago. I still run my Mac OS using 8.6, and it still it appears to have ...

Goodday, I have posted here several times before, but been shouted down for being out of touch, all the time, with Apple kit.

So here is my professional response, I don't use any Software developed program to regularly monitor my Power PC, it runs cool, seldom exceeds 30 degrees, if I do need to ...

Turbolad is telling you straight. Adobe are real tight on warez spiffing. I believe you, but we got two aspects to the case. If you bought a complete pack, you would have all the disks that match: yer its that bad, one disk out of serial, and the install goes awol.

The adobe people also have a pay ...

If its a presentation file you need to read, as a one off, there is a slight chance in three places. One, Adobe offer some kind of translation service, themselves. Two, Google translate, doc services, that might be able to get the presentation into something more common, like jpeg or png. Three, a ...

Goodday Liz, I am responding to this as Adobe are in Scotland.

I don't know too much about the specifics of the application, Adobe persuasion, but what little I do know about the Adobe recent devs, has not been too good. I still use, and make Adobe pdf files for Acrobat reader 4 on Mac, that does ...

Sure and god help the poor people that can't get their head around binary when they come to discover, or have to cope with functions in other number bases, like, 3, 4 or 5, some thing exists called analogue computers, that use trinary, quartery and quinary!

I agree entirely, and therefore, taking your point about the absence of 9 on the thread, apart from trying to assist a posting from a Mac user, I personally can't see any purpose of trying to support or attempt to twist the thread from its original course of enquiry, so you answer the original ...

Goodday Turboladdade,

Sure, X has a different mechanism in operation to 9, and some version of X of course run with what you know to be Classic, and what is in effect, Mac OS. Ostensibly the finder operates as a peer level to other applications
on X, but in some versions of X that were earlier ...

And as an adendum, I got to say, you MUST do a Quicktime uninstall first, and then do a Quicktime install over, when you update, does that sound the most likely thing you altered before the troubles began? Preram battery check is a routine event, after usually 3 years of not knowing about its ...

Well, you clearly have a display crash, that is the first observation. The second point to notice, is the reappearance of the screen, with the setting in a different state, ie programs closed, and quicktime play open. You say its a once a week occurance, roughly?

First off, it would be sensible to ...

Good to speak to you Derry it sure ain't as happy as it was two months ago! I think the word we look for is shocked! But ain't Mac just great? I been using a Mac for quite a good while, personally nearly 20 years. And in work since 1988, I put loads of them in top end Broadcasting arenas. I tell you ...

Hey, why make your life complicated, just go in to Date an time settings and turn Use Network Time server off!

Using Network time, can really screw you up! It is a nice feature of course, but why depend on some other person to tell you the time? What happens if the times wrong? Or the clock stops ...

Yup spot on. Its a System file problem, Also, boot from a bootable CD rom, and run the disk fix checker, just to make sure the disk is alright.
Also Check you are booting into the right startup volume, if you lost your battery or the battery went flat, and you lost the preram settings, startup disk ...

Get shot of two files

OE5Cache.waf
IE Cache.waf

Look for a file called preferences in

Microsoft User Data


Trash it.

Try rebooting and re run the package.

Check your data emails are ok.

Re configure the pref settings, for google mail.

Google tells you how to do this, it changed.

Export all ...

Nisus Writer does 5.1, go for that one, you will love me for the future, it saves files as text formats, no more arsing with file formats. Word 5.1 is good, and I ran it on 7 but MS changed the file format in 97 and 98 so docs don't open to read, and there was no fix given by the MS boys. Also on 8 ...

Goodday, II cx is 68000 series motorola, you need system enablers for Macs before the new world open architecture. Check out system 7 heaven.Check out Apples resource page for system 7 stuff. I can't mention the fellows name, for fear of reprisals of hate to us old scholars, but a site earthlink ...

Stick with it bro You'll be alright, 9 ain't bad at all, and for your info, the Macintosh Garden is back up online.

I checked it this year, portsmouth are also hosting a domain as a project of Mac 9. We know the computers wares have gotten so big, that they are causing bandwidth troubles to those ...

Sure, I got something to add, my original imac had a ball, and the sensors clogged up on it and needed cleaning, (remember those good old days!) but then apple invented the infra red mouse for the later models, of imac, and I bought an infra red mouse, and true, one day some clown gave me a mac mat ...

Goodday,

You want to replace a air displacement fan for your mac. What the previous writer states is largely true, except that dB A stands for logrithmic Audio measurements represented by measurements with a Volume unit meter. And the dB unit for measurement of real sound is dB Spl (sound pressure ...

I just had another thought, and, having worked in the business of engineering all my life, I would like to ask why is it, people always ask such obvious questions about Apple Computer kit, but, don't ask the same thing of other makes of computer?

Here is a question, I am a real fan fo the very old ...
