No System Folder for Mac OS 9.1

My 2001 iBook was purchased in Japan and all discs that came with it are Japanese. I installed an English language version of OS X back then, and have upgraded my OS twice since then. Now running Tiger (English). The problem I have is that I am unable to use software that needs Classic. When I try to reinstall from the original discs, the message says 9.1 is already installed and I should upgrade to 9.2. But 9.2 won't install because 9.1 is not recognized. I've been going in circles with this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, innovator. OS X is multilingual, but OS 9 is not: you'll need to buy and install a retail English-language version of OS 9 before you can apply English-language updates to it. If you currently have a Japanese OS 9.1 installed, you can download and apply free Japanese updaters for 9.2.1 and 9.2.2, but I have no idea how that (or any Japanese-language Classic applications you need to run) will interact with an OS X installation that is localized for English.

    How to maintain a Mac
    1. Make redundant backups, keeping at least one off site at all times. One backup is not enough. Don’t back up your backups; make them independent of each other. Don’t rely completely on any single backup method, such as Time Machine. If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
    2. Keep your software up to date. In the Software Update preference pane, you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis. This is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all such modifications that you use are compatible.
    3. Don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this stuff is useless, or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that purports to change the look and feel of the user interface.
    The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
    As a rule, the only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Use your computer; don't fuss with it.
    Safari extensions, and perhaps the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception to the above rule. Most are safe, and they're easy to get rid of if they don't work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunction.  Some are malicious. Use with caution, and install only well-known extensions from relatively trustworthy sources, such as the Safari Extensions Gallery.
    Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    4. Beware of trojans. A trojan is malicious software (“malware”) that the user is duped into installing voluntarily. Such attacks were rare on the Mac platform until sometime in 2011, but are now increasingly common, and increasingly dangerous.
    There is some built-in protection against downloading malware, but you can’t rely on it — the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness — not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
    Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be acquired directly from the developer. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from a web page without your having requested it should go straight into the Trash. A website that claims you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, is rogue.
    In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications and Installer packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
    Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most people don't.
    5. Don't fill up your boot volume. A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a boot failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem. While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage consumption and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
    If storage space is running low, use a tool such as the free application OmniDiskSweeper to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move rarely-used large files to secondary storage.
    6. Relax, don’t do it. Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” "defragmenting the drive," “running periodic scripts,” “dumping logs,” "deleting temp files," “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," "checking for bad blocks," "testing the hardware," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems, not for prevention.
    The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it.

  • HT4949 what are the system requirements for mac os x 10.6 server?

    what are the system requirements for mac os x 10.6 server?

    While not 'intended', it is indeed possible on a portable. Exigent circumstances required me to re-role an aging MacBook Pro 2.16 Intel Core Duo to act as a server on a temporary basis.
    It boots just fine from an external drive running Server 10.6.8. I also believe that installation (while not recommended) is not actually blocked.
    Tip for the top: just be sure to pull the battery out of the laptop (assuming that's possible) to avoid turning your battery into a grossly distended, non-functional brick... they were not designed to be left on charge permanently!

  • OS 9 system folder for Mini PowerPC G4

    Hi all. I need to use my Mini G4 in classic mode (it's running 10.4.11).  I still have the original install discs that came with the machine when new but although they look OK, furstratingly the CD-ROM drive rejects them - I think I only need the system folder v.9.2(.2).  Can anyone help, please? I've done a lot of looking on here, but no luck.  Thank you.

    For use as Classic, you should be able to copy a working OS 9.2.2 install from another machine. This copying can be done by a simple drag-n-drop copy process; a cloning utility is not needed.
    It would probably be a good idea to also copy the Utilities folder associated with OS 9.
    Note - copying an OS 9 System Folder from an OS 9 install CD will not work; those system folders will work only when booted to from the original medium.

  • Norton System Works For Mac

    Have just upgraded to Tiger and am getting a message that the Norton Anti Virus Auto protect can't proceed, so reinstall and restart. Have done that but makes no difference - I still get the message. Am I missing something?

    Norton BAD. If you feel you need an anti-virus program try the free ClamXav.
    I don't use one since there are no viruses for Macs. Anti-virus programs can slow down a Mac too.

  • Sudden system crashes for Mac mini 2011

    I just came home from a 2-week vacation and my computer has begun to crash and reboot, seemingly when I need the computer to do some task more intensive than Internet browsing.
    It started when I tried uploading pictures into iPhoto via my camera's SD card--and it invariably happens whenever I try this--but it has also crashed and rebooted during simple multitasking procedures, like clicking to check my download progress in Safari as my iPhone is syncing in iTunes. Yesterday I had to contend with the white (grey?) screen of death for a few hours as I tried different methods. Fiddling around in Safe Mode let me fix that problem, at least, but the sudden system crashes still persist.
    Could my computer have been affected by a lack of use over the last two weeks in the summer heat? It's been hot in the house, but not exceptionally so for August. And before I left I shut it down and unplugged the power cord.
    Here are the first several dozen lines of the error report from the most recent crash. If anyone could offer me some help, I'd be very grateful.

    Remove the "MacKeeper" crapware as follows, then reboot and test. If there's no improvement, post again.
    Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions, nor do I intend to repeat the test.
    IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Applications from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Quit it if it's running, then drag it to the Trash. A dialog will pop up asking why you want to uninstall it. You don't have to provide that information. Enter anything you like in the text box, then click the Uninstall button. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. That's the only useful feature of "MacKeeper:" it deletes itself. Reboot.
    Do not try to uninstall by dragging the MacKeeper icon in the Dock or the LaunchPad to the Trash.
    Here are some general suggestions. If you want your computer to be usable, don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” “extenders,” “cleaners,” “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this kind of material is useless, or worse than useless.
    The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
    The only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it.

  • System requirements for Mac OS X Lion

    Hi,
    Will Mac OS X Lion work on my Leopard 10.5.8, or do I need Snow Leopard 10.6.6 to upgrade to Lion?
    I haven't bought Snow Leopard until now because I've been waiting for the release of Lion, and I just heard that I need Snow Leopard...
    Please tell me it's not true.

    Mac OS X Lion will be available in July as an upgrade to Mac OS X version 10.6 Snow Leopard from the Mac App Store for $29.99 (US). Lion will be the easiest OS X upgrade and at about 4GB, it is the size of an HD movie from the iTunes Store. Mac OS X Lion Server requires Lion and will be available in July from the Mac App Store for $49.99 (US).
    Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, runing the latest version of Snow Leopard. The Lion upgrade can be installed on all your authorized personal Macs.
    The Mac OS X Lion Up-To-Date upgrade is available at no additional charge via the Mac App Store to all customers who purchased a qualifying new Mac system from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 6, 2011. Users must request their Up-To-Date upgrade within 30 days of purchase of their Mac computer. Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request.

  • System restore for Mac?

    Does it exist?
    How does one operate it?

    Also keep in mind that you can only boot Intel Macs from a USB drive.
    I don't know if perhaps booting an Intel Mac from a FireWire is just not supported, but I can testify that it's most certainly possible. I'm making this post on my MacBook Pro while booted from the clone of the MBP hard drive on my FireWire drive.  
    Looking around, I find this: Firmware update for Intel-based Mac does not install with non-GUID partition scheme, which peripherally mentions booting Intel Macs from a FireWire drive:
    Option 1: Use an external startup disk
    If you have a bootable external disk, such as a FireWire disk, that is configured with the correct partition scheme (GUIDpartitionscheme), start up from it using Startup Disk preferences, then apply the firmware update during start up.
    That certainly indicates it's supported, since they're suggesting starting up from an Intel Mac from a FireWire drive.
    I haven't come across anything from Apple, other than the above, saying one thing or the other about Intel Macs being bootable from FireWire. Does anyone else have a link - something saying that it is or isn't supported?

  • How do I install OS9 system folder on an eMac?

    I have a brand new eMac. It has OS 10.4.4 installed. I need to install an OS9 system folder in order to run Classic. I have an OS9 CD, but the eMac can't boot to it or run anything from the cd from OSX. The eMac didnt come with a CD that says anything like additional software or Classic Support. I tried booting to the OSX install CD's and doing a customized install. Classic support or OS9 was not an option.
    Any ideas?

    No new Macs can boot in OS 9, which is half the reason Classic was invented to emulate 9 while your Mac is booted in X.
    The disk set that came with your eMac does contain installers that will give you a System Folder for use with Classic over X, but not on the main disks…
    It's probably on one labelled Additional Software and Mac OS 9 but sorry, these things change from time to time and I haven't seen a recent eMac…

  • Start-up issues - system folder

    Hey gang, I've got a bondi blue 233mhz G3 iMac. It has 160 mg of ram if I remember right (has 128mb chip in slot). Anyways, I got a hard drive from the guts of another imac we found... in a dumpster, of all places. The motherboard was fried on that one, so I swiped the HD. Seems good. I booted off OS 9.2.1 cd, and installed it on to the HD, after initializing it to clean it off. I restarted, and the thing doesn't see the system folder/hard drive! Yet when I boot off the CD, the HD shows up plain as day. I remembered to select it in the start-up disk extension, but it only boots off the CD.
    Another question: the HD doesn't specify what the PIN settings on it are. Any suggestions? I tried looking it up, but can't find 'em. I believe its a Infineon, judging what I see on it. Thanks!

    Jared Lorenz...
    A missing Master configuration needs confirmation somehow before proceding. Although it is at the top of the list of suspects, there is other things to consider.
    — A HD that wasn't partitioned <8GB (7.8GB or slightly less) IF the capacity exceeds 8GB. Of course, any bootable Mac OS must reside on that partition. See this related link
    — Somehow an unblessed System Folder may have been installed. Just look at the System Folder for the 2 tone blue, 2 faced "Mac OS" icon. See this related link.
    So far these 2 come into mind.

  • Classic will not recognize system folder

    I have installed Classic from the cd that came with my computer. The system folder for os9 shows up in root next to the osx folder, but there is no 9 on the folder. When I try to run classic in system preferences, it says os9 is not installed. I've seen other postings saying to "bless" it by dragging the finder from the os9 system folder to the desktop then back again, but this does nothing.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

    Hello berne04,
    Did you try this (from the link that Texas Mac Man posted)? Try it instead of dragging and dropping the Finder.
    No "blessed" Mac OS 9 System Folder
    If Classic doesn't start, but Mac OS 9 is installed, the System Folder may not be "blessed".
    Open System Preferences and choose Classic from the View menu. You may see an alert box with the message:
    "No startup volume: There is no volume with a system folder that supports starting Classic. Please install Mac OS 9.1 or later."
    It may not be necessary to reinstall Mac OS 9. Try these steps:
    1. From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. From the View menu, choose Startup Disk. The Startup Disk pane appears.
    3. Note the current Startup Disk selection, which is a Mac OS X volume.
    4. Click the Mac OS 9 System Folder you want to bless.
    5. From the View menu, choose Show All.
    6. From the View menu, choose Startup Disk.
    7. Reselect the volume you noted in Step 3.
    8. From the View menu, choose Show All.
    9. Quit System Preferences.
    Hope This Helps,

  • Corrupt OS 9 systems folder?

    Dear Friends,
    I am working on my church's computer. The original OS 9.1 is installed on one hard drive and a second hard drive is partitioned with OS10.4.8. The second partition has OS10.0 with fresh install.
    The goal is to be able to convert data from a church database application in OS 9 to the new version in OS X. When using classic in the OS 10.4 the system folder used is OS 9.1 from the first disk. I get a message to upgrade that folder to 9.2.2. I have tried to upgrade to 9.2.2 on the OS 9.1 disk but upgrade fails. After many attempts I have been unable to use the conversion program in the church data base application to update data base with new version of application in 10.4. I've tried so many work arounds I am now dizzy. Could you help me get this process organized and successful? The support staff at the database application have told me this is a Mac upgrade issue and that their software is working correctly. I can have the company do the upgrade but I need to have an archive of old church records in the new format.
    I think the problem is in the system folder from the old OS 9.1 software, but I cannot seem to get it to work properly. Without that step I cannot do the conversion.
    I can give you other info if needed, thanks.
    Church mouse 3

    Hi, churchmouse, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    The Digital Audio PowerMac G4 was originally shipped with OS 9.1 installed, and can boot into that OS if a) the installation of OS 9.1 was performed using the original, model-specific disc that came with the computer, AND b) the installed OS is in good shape.
    There is almost no earthly reason to keep a copy of OS X 10.0 installed on any computer. If someone in the church has a grievous sin to expiate, using OS X 10.0 for a week or two would be a fitting penance. 10.0 was a beta version — barely half there, less than half ready, and pure misery to use.
    If I were you, I'd erase the partition that contains 10.0, use the original disc(s) that came with the G4 to install OS 9.1 on that partition, and then update that installation to 9.2.2 witht he downloadable OS 9.2.1 and 9.2.2 updaters (you can't skip 9.2.1). Then I'd designate the new OS 9.2.2 System Folder for use as Classic in the Classic pane of OS X 10.4's System Preferences, and put it to the test. OS X may want to update a few Classic-related files before Classic will open, but the updates should go well now. If Classic opens and works, test to make sure you can also start up the G4 from the 9.2.2 partition: you should be able to do that, too.
    If all seems to be well, copy any important data files that are currently stored on the OS 9.1 hard drive from it to the new OS 9.2.2 partition. After converting them to the new file format as needed and checking to make sure they open and work as desired, I'd suggest performing a Clean Install of OS 9.1 on the second drive.
    Contrary to what Beavis has written above, a Clean Install deletes nothing from the drive it's performed on; it merely creates a new, pristine System Folder on the drive and renames the old one "Previous System Folder," leaving that folder and its contents (and everything else on the drive) intact. The term "clean install" is frequently misunderstood and misused to mean an installation that first erases everything, and I presume that's what Beavis was talking about. That isn't what a real Clean Install does.
