Can emac installer discs be used to install OS 9.2.2 on Pismo G3?

I have a full set of original eMac installer discs, and want to use one set to install OS9.2.2 on an Apple Pismo G3.
Can this be done?
I've heard Apple OEM installer discs are "Mac machine specific", and can't be used to install OS software onto other
Apple Macs of a different model. But, I'm not sure if this is true, as there may be conflicting views on this subject.
The OEM eMac discs I have are as follows:
• Two (2) disc OEM set
   eMac OS X 10.4
   AHT version 2.5
   Disc version 1.1
   2Z691-5518-A
• Five (5) disc set:
   eMac OS X and Mac OS 9
   Mac OS version 9.2.2
   CD version 1.0
   691-3981-A
So the question is .... if OS X Tiger 10.4 has already been installed on the Pismo G3 .... can the above installer discs of (5) OS 9.2.2 be used to install OS 9.2.2 on the Pismo G3?
I would assume the Pismo G3 Hard drive would already have to have the OS9 drivers installed, during the OS 10.4 installation (showing an OS 9 "System Folder" on the HD, to be able to receive the OS 9.2.2 installer discs. I also understand that if installable, that the OS 9.2.2 would only open in the "Classic" mode.
Any information as to if the above eMac OS 9.2.2 installer discs can be used to install OS 9.2.2 on the Pismo G3 ... would be appreciated.
OR .... if other OS9.2.2 installer discs would be more appropiate, and if so, what model of Apple installer discs to use on the Pismo G3.

dalstott::
Below is the OS 9.2.2 "System Folder" that I was able to pull off the Number 1 - OEM eMac "Restore Sofware Disc".
It's obviously different than the first "System Folder" that I have, which I also showed above in a previous reply.
Since the above is off the eMac OS 9.2.2 installer disc, this is the one I think would be more appropiate for copy/dragging to the Pismo G3 Hard Drive.
Even though the Applications in the OS 9 Applications Folder are older, and probably not of much interest ... I also have the following "Applications (Mac OS 9)" folder, also taken off the eMac OS 9 installer disc. If I were to copy/drag this "Applications (Mac OS 9)" folder, to the Pismo G3 Hard Drive ... where do you think it should be placed? In the OS 9.2.2 "System Folder" ... or separately on the main Hard Drive, with all the other main folders?
Note: All these installer folders were "Invisable" disc folders, and only "viewable" using FileBuddy in Mountain Lion 10.8.5.

Installation discs with used June 2012 model

I'm looking at buying a used or refurbished MacBook Pro.
Mid (June) 2012 model - 15.4-inch MacBook Pro 2.6GHz Quad-core Intel i7 (the non Retina model).
Refurb from Apple would be ideal, but money does come into my decision, so I'm looking at used on eBay and Craigslist (I know, not ideal, but I may have to go that route).
Obviously that machine is going to come with Mountain Lion. I just spoke to a seller and when I asked about the grey installations discs, he said that machine no longer comes with installations discs. I know Apple have gone all App store and downloading now, but is that true? If so, is there a way to run a disc based hardware check when purchasing a used 2012 model?
Thanks!

Mac's are still the predominant platform in the creative world.
The creative market is almost disappeared due to the rapid decline of print media, less artists are needed now.
Consumers are getting their information from the web rather than from magazines and newspapers.
Musicians often need to appear different and fashionable with Mac's, the video industry is moving more towards longer term and stable PC systems with their 10 years of operating system support verses OS X only a few years of support.
No way am I or the vast majority of creative professionals on these forums moving to PC's and Windows. Not gonna happen.
The vast amount of people on these forums are consumers.
Consumers make the bulk of Apple's sales, and consumers are choosing tablets more often as it does what they need, it costs less and it's easier to fix. Apple is not going to keep non selling product lines available just for the small market of creatives.
Apple has already discontinued the MacBook and the 17" MacBook Pro (and the XRaid and Xerver) since the iPad's release, closed up all their hardware now and nearly has OS X closed up.
IDC predicts that consumers will use tablets more than regular computers by 2015 and without the majority of consumers buying machines the small portion of creatives needs, they will be discontinued.
Apple's new MacPro is aimed squarely at the new emerging 4G market, but it's a gamble as the the industry just switched to HD and that was expensive and painful enough not to have to repeat again so shortly.
but want to create things on computers that work.
I'm a creative and create things on Windows 7, on my Mac, just fine.
Windows 7 looks great provided it's on a decent monitor which by default most Mac's come with one.
I think in the next few years a lot is going to occur as the shift away from consumers using Mac's and PC's will continue.
That would leave Windows towers and laptops likely the only solution for professionals and creatives as there won't be enough consumer demand to keep most portable Mac's alive.

Can same os user be used to install all fusion middleware products?

hi
We are using "oracle" os user as database owner for R12 EBS.
We now want to install collab suite & application server (AS) to later integrate these with EBS.
Can we use the same "oracle" user to install colab & AS.
Is it like each fusion middleware product should be installed with separate users or can be same.
Thanks
JIL

Here's the real deal from Adobe's site:
http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331297.html
It explains how to do an install from the command line that will install the Suite silently, and with the options you choose, you just have to copy the appropriate files, and create a .xml file to control it.
You then push the file to the machines that need to install it and then send the Unix command to run it on them all.
This is going into my Rollout plan for the next time, instead of doing it the slow way (Copy the installers all at once and start them one by one on each machine).
Come to think about it, you could probably mount a remote volume, and then order the machines to run the installer from there (Only if you have a seriously robust network for the machines).
Hope this helps anyone else that's not on a deadline that's already passed.

How can I stop Firefox from using and installing AVG add-ons?

Firefox continually re-installs AVG Toolbar and Secure Search and I need to be able to remove everything AVG permanently. My Alternative is to use another browser, so please advise asap?
Thanks.

REmove from Firefox Toolbar and windows control pannel
In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
#From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
#Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
#You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
#To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
#Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.
You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:
[[Disable or remove Add-ons]]

Can RD for Administration be used to install RD Gateway?

Hello,
Have a Server 2008 R2 virtual machine running in a web hosting environment. The company has enabled Remote Desktop Administration and we have been using RD Connection to access the virtual server without any problem. However, due to firewall considerations
we would like to use RD Gateway with port 443 instead of the standard RD port 3389.
Perhaps this may be obvious, but if on a RD admin connection, is it possible to successfully install RD Gateway? For example, when you hit "Install" for the Gateway, will it automatically drop the existing RD admin connection?
The main concern right now is the we don't end up somehow locking ourselves out of RD altogether if the Gateway has install or config problems. Any insights are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Robert,
Thanks for the reply. Went ahead with the install accepting the defaults. Got the following result:
"Installation succeeded with errors.
Remote Desktop Services
   Error: The Internet Information Services (IIS) settings that are required for RD Gateway to function correctly could not be configured. To resolve this issue, open Remote Desktop Gateway Manager. When you open Remote Desktop Gateway Manager, it
verifies whether the IIS settings are correctly configured, and if the settings are not correctly configured, it configures the settings automatically.
   The following role services were installed:
   Remote Desktop Gateway"
Opened RD Gateway Manager, but didn't see any servers. Tried to manually connect but received:
"Unable to read RD Gateway Server Settings"
Not sure what to do next. Perhaps, this type of configuration with a pre-existing install of IIS is not supported.

Can a CS6 disc be used to upgrade CS5?

Just bought and installed the full version of CS6 on a MacBook Pro. Can I use that disk to upgrade an iMac running CS5? How many computers can a license (home, not business) cover?

Thanks, Michael, for the prompt reply. Regarding the license, that's what I thought.
Instead of spending another $199 on the upgrade, I would like to uninstall CS5 and then install CS6. Doable? When the time comes, I can deactivate the MacBook CS6 and add the 2nd iMac (I hope) to the license.
By the way, my CS5 was an upgrade and I couldn't find the license for the previous complete version.
Again, thanks.

According to the Jar Guide (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/jar/jarGuide.html)
Executable Jar Files
On Microsoft Windows systems, the Java 2 Runtime Environment's installation program will register a default association for Jar files so that double-clicking a Jar file on the desktop will automatically run it with javaw -jar. Dependent extensions bundled with the application will also be loaded automatically. This feature makes the end-user runtime environment easier to use on Microsoft Windows systems.
The Solaris 2.6 kernel has already been extended to recognize the special "magic" number that identifies a Jar file, and to invoke java -jar on such a Jar file as if it were a native Solaris executable. A application packaged in a Jar file can thus be executed directly from the command line or by clicking an icon on the CDE desktop.
Despite that every JAR file can be executed as a program if and only if the META-INF/Manifest.mf contains the Main-Class tag. This done through java -jar jarfile.jar

I have an old emac I want to use and have forgotten the master password. Is there anyway to reset it?

How to reset master password for an OLD emac.

Thanks. I wish I had that info earlier. Unfortunately I got a set of OS emac installation disks and tried to install and start over which basically erased everything. There were 16 disks and when I got to disk twelve it "failed" and asked to try again. I went through the whole process again and same message again.
Now I am stuck with the installer which wants me to install disc 2 to continue installation. It won't let me do anything else.
I know there must be a way to erase and start over but I'm not sure where to start. Any ideas?

Won't boot from installation disc

I'd like to reinstall Tiger. The installation disc mounts on the desktop and opens. I click on the install icon to restart the computer and boot from the disc and the computer crashes. I have two Tiger installation discs, crashes using either one. I tried it with a Panther installation disc but same thing--crashes. I've tried booting by holding down the C key--crashes. The drive burns successfully and reads successfully. There was no hint of a problem before this.
thoughts anyone

Hi-
If the proper version of the OS software, have you disconnected any third party peripherals, especially USB devices?
Could also try a Single user boot (command + s on startup) , and run fsck to see if there is something amiss on the harddrive.
One other thought, from Safe Mode boot (hold "Shift" on startup), try the OS X install disc.
Yet, one more thought, a simple PRAM reset may be all that's needed.

Can't burn disc with OS X Mavericks from finder

When attempting to burn a collection of files from a burn folder to a writeable CD, the drive loads the CD when inserted, the CD image appears over the burn folder image normally, but nothing further happens. When attempting to eject the CD using the eject button or right-click and choosing eject, I get a message stating "You can't burn a disc using "Disc Name" because it's locked." I can unlock the disc by using Get Info and unchecking the box for "locked". However, this only allows me to eject the disc, I am still unable to burn the disc. The symptom occurs with different discs so the problem is not related to the medi
However, iTunes writes CD's normally. It appears that only writing CD's from the finder does not work, so it is not the CD drive.

Not sure this is related, however, after Facebook went down for about 20 min, soon after so did my Gmail (6) , 1 iCloud account(s). It's been hit and miss on downloading my email, however if I went to the websites I finally was able to get email. I then tried to see if my settings were correct and it appears all my passwords looked shorter than they really are. I reenter that information and voila, it's working again. Not a clue why those issues would have triggered my settings, however I know others have been complaining as well.

I bought a MBPro which came with Lion installed,i also wanted to have a copy of installation disc so i used mac app store.Normally if an app is already bought there is a warning or a sign that informs the buyer.I've charged for this download is it normal?

Hi ,i bought a MacBookPro which came with Lion installed on it (i have registered my mac book pro right after i bought it), i also wanted to have a copy of the installation disc in case of a crash, so i used mac app store to get it.Normally if an app is already bought (for iphone app store) there is a warning or a sign that informs the buyer, than the app store lets the buyer to re-download/re-install the app.I've charged for this download afterwards, because i was using virtual credit card, there was not enough money transferred to that card during that download but the app store let me download it anyway. I haven't charged before the download, the app store first let me to download it then it requested that amount of money for next download wich it was a free app. Can anybody enlight me? thanks

Hi ...
i also wanted to have a copy of the installation disc in case of a crash
If you have problems with your Mac you use Lion Recovery
However, you can create your own installation disc > How to create an OS X Lion installation disc | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews
Since Lion came pre installed on your Mac, the App Store doesn't not recognize that as a purchase so you if you want to re download Lion to create a boot disk you will have to pay for it. You can then re download Lion on all your authorized Macs for free.

Can I use a mac os x installation disc on my macbook

I bought my macbook in 2007 and now I have to re-install macOSx. But my "istallation disc nr.2" is missing. I could borrow other 2 installation discs but I don't know if they'll work on my computer. They came with an iMac and they are from 2008, a newer version than mine. Can I use it, or should I buy new installation cds? (I have nr.1, need nr.2)

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
You need the discs that came with the MacBook.
For further information, you may want to post in the _MacBook Forum_.
