Emulation software

Hi there, I recently installed my Adobe After Effects CS3 and it doesn't work with snow leopard at all. So, is there an emulator that will allow me to run the app like if I had tiger?

Hi kmccmk9;
To answer your question about emulation software to run Tiger on Snow Leopard, the answer is a resounding NO.

  • How to install Apple's Rosetta emulation software?

    Sigma Chess is a legacy PowerPC application and therefore needs Apple’s Rosetta emulation software in order to run on Intel based Macs. This is pre- installed on Mac OS X 10.5 and earlier, but must be installed manually on the new Mac OS X 10.6. Please guide me

  • Emulation software for older OS X versions

    I was cleaning out a box of computer stuff and I found my old copies of OS X Server 1.2 (the Rhapsody version), OS X Public Beta, and the original OS X.
    Is there any kind of emulation software like Virtual Box that will allow me to install and run these operating systems on a current model iMac? I would really love to see these OS's in action again, just for the nostalgia.

    It would be interesting if there were. I think emulators are written where it is seen there is a need because the current OS doesn't offer something. As far as running OSX inside of OSX, I just don't see there being a need - or maybe not until now. It seems to only be with the arrival of Snow Leopard that I am now noticing more of earlier OSX software versions being noted as not working under SL. Before it seemed that just about anything written for OSX would run under newer versions.

  • How do i run a new software program (Investment Account Manager for Windows) using Windows emulation software?

    How can I run a new software program (Investment Account Manager for Windows) using Windows emulation software?

    You will need a licensed copy of Windows 7, and I recommend VMFusion. You can run the program in Unity mode just as if it were a Mac application. Or, you can install Windows in Bootcamp and run the Mac in Windows when you boot and run it that way. Depends on the resources. I prefer the VM method because it is cleaner and gives you more options as far as backups, etc.

  • Is this possible - having a emulator software in portal

    gurus,
    my client has the following requirement -
    client has a IBM AS 400 emulator software, called extra. they run this software, which connects them to AS 400 and thru which they run AS 400 reports.
    the requirement is to run this emulator software from within the portal.
    for example - the emulator software would be a portal 'item' which, when clicked runs the emulator software and takes the user to the AS 400 env.
    how can this be done .. ? has anyone done this before ... ?
    any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    one way i was thinking is to have the MIME type of the emulator software in the 9iAS and see if it works ...
    thanx a lot
    null

    Is this emulator software web-enabled? If so, you can put a URL link to the location of the emulator to run it.
    If not, you may be able to hack it via a HTML file with a URL call as follows:
    Run Extra
    but this is a bit flaky and relies on the emulator being on the same place on every PC.
    Regards,
    John

  • BB running Pocket PC software? Is there an emulation software? or is it possible without that?

    I am a new owner of a BB Curve 8310 and need software that only exists in Pocket PC or Palm OS.  I'm assuming that it won't run on RIM OS.  Is that true?  

    I don't want a Pocket PC or Palm, I want to be able to run a certain piece of software.

  • An emulator for windows software

    I need to run a simple windows software program on my Macbook running 10.6.4
    I have just looked at crossover and also at iemulator.
    It appears that crossover does not require the installation of Windows software. Am I reading that correctly?
    iemulator does require windows, but it has the added advantage of working on all my Macs including a non-intel Mac.
    I don't anticipate needing this for many applications, but I would like to have something that is simple.
    Have you found any solution that might work for me?
    Thanks,
    Jemel

    Your MacBook and your Mac Mini if it has at least 4 USB ports on rear can both use the VMWare, Parallels, VirtualBox, and Boot Camp. These programs are known as virtualization engines. These are not to be confused with emulators. Emulators emulate hardware. An Intel Mac does not need CPU or GPU hardware to be emulated, and only needs the firmware that is more commonly known to PCs to be given to the environment in question.
    Crossover does not require Windows installation, but does require an Intel Mac such as your MacBook or a 4 plus USB port Mac Mini. Its application support though is nowhere near as great as actually having a full fledged virtualization software. You can check its website to find out which application support it does have.
    Before you get any virtualization, WINE, or Emulator software, ask yourself what applications made for Windows you need to read their documents on a Mac? Maybe there is a Mac public domain software that can read the same documents.
    See my FAQ* for some tips:

    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
         1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows
             XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  For Boot Camp
             4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
             instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
             installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
             installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the
             computer into OS X or Windows.
         2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
             Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software
             virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
             with OS X.
         3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
             or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that
             enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
         4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
             applications without having to install Windows.  The
             Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
         5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
             as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
             It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
             Fusion.
    Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Benchmarks of all of the above except Crossover can be found in Benchmarking Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox Against Boot Camp - The Mac Observer. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Using Sheepshaver Software

    Is there any way to use Sheepshaver emulator software without owning an older Mac. The site says that I need to import a ROM image from an older Mac. Well, the reason that I want the software is to simulate an older Mac... I wouldn't have to do that if I had one. Is there anyway around this if I only have one Mac computer?

    OK, so this post spurred me on to try to set up Classic emulation on a MacBook Pro.
    a) It works! Sound works, TCP/IP networking works, shared folder works.
    b) Pretty fast overall, boots fast, runs Explorer 5 quickly enough.
    I haven't tried anything like a game, but maybe when I have a little more time.
    I used SheepShaver 2.3 (http://www.gibix.net/dokuwiki/en:projects:sheepshaver)
    Tried using the "Mac OS ROM" from my mac mini's classic folder, no go. Tried to use "ROM Grabber" on an old SuperMac S900, but that would consistently bomb out. Finally saw that SS2.3 will use the Mac OS ROM from "Mac OS ROM Update 1.0". This installer tome is available from Apple download (do a google search). All fine and good, but it is an "Installer Tome". I couldn't find a way to extract the file in OSX, but you can with TomeViewer, a classic app (search versiontracker.com). This may lead you into a bit of a mess, since you need a classic Mac to extract what you need to run Classic...
    Anyway, since I have multiple Macs running classic, it wasn't difficult to fire up tomeviewer extract the proper Mac OS ROM file and then load it up on my MBP.
    I happen to load OS 8.5 (and then upgraded to OS8.6) on a 400Mb disk file. With the standard set of extensions, booting takes about 30 sec to get to finder. Screen redraws seem pretty fast, mounts CDs, plays alert sounds, pretty much, looks and feels like a Classic Mac. As I mentioned Explorer 5.1 works reasonably fast, no speed demon, but definitely not slow either. Haven't tried much else than that, Opera 5 and 6 bombs the entire program though.
    So, it IS possible to run Classic on Intel Macs!!

  • Classic mode or PPC emulation

    I've been searching the internet and have not found a clear answer to my question.
    I have a Mac Pro using OSX Snow Leopard. I have been using Mac's since the old Mac SE and progressed through the years of System 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, X.
    I have a lot of old software that I used to be able to run in Classic under OSX Panther. I want to run those programs again, but alas there is no Classic for OSX Snow Leopard.
    Is there some kind of emulation software that I can download that will let me run these old 68k & PPC apps on my Mac Pro?
    Thanks!
    Casey

    How about this...is it possible to install a second OS on my Mac Pro of OSX Panther that I can install Classic with?
    No. For one, you can't install an older system than what shipped on your Mac:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2186
    For two, the only machines Apple has sold the last few years have Intel processors and thus cannot run Classic in any form regardless of the version of the OS that is installed.
    Maybe it'd be easier to get an old Mac to work....
    Yup, that's what you're going to want to do.

  • KVM Switches and software-controlled mice

    KVM Switches will only support the basic functions of a mouse under most conditions.  Any additional functionality that is controlled via software drivers or a mouse manager program, such as MouseWare by Logitech or IntelliMouse by Microsoft can not be guaranteed to work through KVM Switches.  This is due to the emulation software control provides, and the incompatibilities of not having a direct connection from the interface device to the port on the back of the computer.  When control of the interfaces is assigned to another machine attached to the KVM switch, the communication from the interfaces to the other machine(s) is terminated until selected again.
    It is recommended to use the Microsoft Generic PS/2 drivers, provided in the Windows distribution, if the mouse is having troubles operating when used in conjunction with a KVM Switch.  Cordless/optical input devices may not function with the KVM Switch, as they are software controlled.
    Source: Linksys KB

    I can get along with the idea of losing control of some aspects of the mouse, but one issue I am still fighting is connecting the keyboard/mouse to the PS2KVM4 4-Port KVM Switch.  I have a USB Keyboard/Mouse multimedia desktop from MS. 
    I looked for and could not find a KVM that uses USB, so I got the PS2KVM4.  It works fine except that the PS2 connectors are too close together to accept any of the USB to PS2 adapters that come standard with USB Keyboard and mouse sets.  I like the versatility of USB and prefer not to have to buy a PS2 keyboard/mouse set.
    Is there anyone that either makes a USB type KVM switch? Or a reasonable priced adapter that will fit the connections?  I have located one company that makes such an adapter (Linkskey LKV-PUC01) but I can't see paying nearly the price of the KVM switch (KVM $72.99 adapter $69.99) for an adapter to fit it.

  • Trouble with Dragon software

    Dragon is telling me it cant find the sound ,but I have it in my computor.

    Hi,
    The Dragon software seems to be a game emulator software. So there is a big chance that you have an add-in of Dragon software related issue.
    You may also need to check whether you already turned off the application in Sound Mixer.

  • ITunes 9.x photo resolution with iTouch 4.0 software

    I recently upgraded to iTunes 9.2.x and upgraded a 64 GB iTouch from 3.0 to 4.0 software. Upon upgrading, iTunes "re-optimized" all of my photos to much lower than iTouch screen resolution. While the size of the photos on the device did decrease dramatically, I'd strongly prefer the higher resolution. The "use full resolution" box for downloading pictures has disppeared.
    Anyone know a way of having iTunes download 320x480 versions of pictures to the iTouch?

    After several experiments, It became more and more clear that iTunes seem to have a beef with third-party IDE/SCSI controller drivers on Windows 7, which is used in some CD/DVD emulator software. One of them being PowerISO and Alcohol 52, which I recently installed. After removing the software, the syncing problem disappears.
    Any recommendations on other emulators which will not cause problems with iTunes?

  • Running PC Emulator on Tiger

    I am a bead designer who can not find bead designing software for Mac's. So I am looking at a PC program which I have been told may be accessed by using an PC emulator. The one I am looking at is iEmulator 1.7.8 (http://www.iemulator.com/) to be used to access the Bead Cellar software (http://www.beadcellar.com/tbcpd.asp). iEmulator says it works with Windows 98, Me, Windown NT & 2000 and Windows XP, as does the Bead Cellar software.
    I had never heard of a PC emulator software until yesterday so I am a bit leary. Is there anything I should be aware of. My Mac is running very smoothly right now, can a PC emulator program cause problems?
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

    Hi, B.E.
    Most folks that need to run PC / Windows software on Mac OS X use Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac. More expensive than iEmulator, but probably more widely used.
    PC emulators can cause issues. Sometimes your PC app doesn't like the emulator because the emulator isn't well-written. Sometimes the emulators can cause other problems: they're programs, emulating a complex bit of hardware, i.e. an PC processor chip. Running PC apps in an emulator won't give you the same performance as running the PC app on a PC. Since they let you run Windows, you're then generally exposed to the same security problems as Windows.
    To see if there's a Mac app that will meet your needs instead of running the PC app under an emulator, search MacUpdate or Version Tracker. The user-submitted reviews accompanying the listings are helpful in sorting the wheat from the chaff.
    If there's no Mac app that does what you want, then using Virtual PC and your PC app would be my advice: VPC has good support and is widely used.
    The MacWindows site has several reports on different versions of Virtual PC which you might find helpful. See the list of these under "Emulators" in the right margin. The current version of Virtual PC is VPC 7.x, so you may want to review the MacWindows Virtual PC 7 Report. They also have a report on alternatives to VPC, including a few Reader Reports on iEmulator.
    Good luck!
