Old fonts from System 7 & Mac OS 8 & OS 9: Safe to install in 10.6.4?

I've been accumulating fonts for years and years. I recently got a new MacBook Pro and it's now running 10.6.4.
I still have, backed up on an external drive, hundreds of freeware, shareware and pro-level fonts which I acquired way back in the distant past, some as early as System 7 -- the "Date created" column says they're dated starting 1992 and every year up through 2004. (There's also about 15 System 6-era fonts in there too going back to 1989, but I think I'm just going to trash those.)
My question: Is it "safe" to install these fonts on my 10.6.4 machine? Or could the ancient fonts cause some kind of operating system meltdown or panic or whatever?
Perhaps the OS 8 & OS 9 fonts are safe, but not the System 6 and System 7 fonts?
Or all they all safe?
And even if they are safe to install: Will they work?
Lastly: What's the best way to install them? I see a new feature in OSX which I had never noticed until now is that if one double-clicks the font icon, a "Font Book" window pops up with an optional "Install Font" button at the lower right. By clicking that button, does Font Book physically move the font file to the proper place in the OSX system? Or...?
Any advice or insight into this problem would be most appreciated. I want to have access to all my old fonts (I still have many documents which make use of them) but I don't want to mess up my fresh new 10.6.4 system. Thanks.

My question: Is it "safe" to install these fonts on my 10.6.4 machine?
Yes.
Or could the ancient fonts cause some kind of operating system meltdown or panic or whatever?
Only if they conflict with other fonts, or are corrupt.
Perhaps the OS 8 & OS 9 fonts are safe, but not the System 6 and System 7 fonts?
Anything from System 8 forward will work. System 6 used bitmapped fonts. These are not supported in OS X. System 7 and 7.5 though were a mix. There were both TrueType and bitmapped fonts. Only the TrueType fonts can be used.
It does depend on where you're reading about these old fonts. One site notes that TrueType fonts were introduced in System 7. Another states that there were TrueType fonts in System 6.
And even if they are safe to install: Will they work?
Yes. I have tons of old fonts; Mac TrueType from OS 9 and earlier, Type 1 PS fonts from way back, etc. They all work just fine.
What's the best way to install them?
The best way actually, with Font Book, is to not install them. Which I will explain per the next part:
"Font Book" window pops up with an optional "Install Font" button at the lower right. By clicking that button, does Font Book physically move the font file to the proper place in the OSX system?
If you look in Font Book's preferences, fonts you "install" can go to either the /Library/Fonts/ folder, or by default, the Fonts folder in your user account. What you really want to do is activate fonts "in place", which is to activate them from where they are instead of creating copies. Do this by creating a Library Set in Font Book rather than a normal set. Fonts added to a Library Set are activated in place.

    I have purchased a new printer.  It is the same make as my old printer.  How do I remove the old printer from my Mac?

    you could see if that make of printer has an uninstaller (may come with the installer)
    or go to preferences, print and fax, and press the minus key   (  -   ) which should maybe remove it. Or ,do a a find, then type in the make of printer, and anything that looks like a printer driver for that make, well, maybe it's gotta go
    just an idea

  • I migrated a user from another mac and cant get any updates to install!

    Hi
    I migrated a user from another mac and cant get any updates to install, for example it says iPhoto is intalled but its not, i never copied it from the older imac, and i cant download it to this one now
    any help appreciated

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Install old iLife from 10.3 disks onto iBook w/ a clean install of Tiger?

    My ibook originally came with Panther 10.3. iLife was included on the install disks.
    A few months ago, I did a clean install of Tiger. I then tried to reinstall iLife from the Panther 10.3 disks. However, only Garageband and iDVD show up ---iPhoto and iMovie don't show up at all. I've searched for these programs, but they are not installed.
    I spoke to an apple rep and he said that I should NEVER install old programs from a Panther disk onto a clean install of Tiger. However, the guy did not seem confident in what he told me. He said my mac should be very unstable and that I shouldn't even be able to use Garageband....but I have had no problems with my mac or using Garageband for the past 4 months.
    Is he correct? And if so, should I do a clean install of Panther, and then upgrade to Tiger? I wonder if this will correctly install the whole iLife suite?

  • Fontbook won't recognize old fonts from OS9

    Some of my old artwork needs two fonts: gannon & handwriting, but fontbook
    only sees the unix executable files. It wont convert or install. The church I work for has both of these fonts in it's logo! I have upgraded from the mav idv to this mac mini and OSX. I love it, but this problem with these fonts(and others) is an on going problem. Any suggestions or help? Thanks

    Hello Jenn
    Check out the article below to go through a recreate your iTunes library. You can do it one of two different ways. One is just drag the media on top of iTunes and the import process will go through. The second is if the structure is the same, you could just copy the iTunes folder to the Music folder of your computer and it should open up like before. The article below will assist with those process in more detail.

  • How to remove fonts from i-mac?

    Some how I have fonts that take large space on the computer.  I've tried to delete them but the computer won't allow it!  Can you give me any suggestions?

    elaine --
    Actually, fonts don't ever take a "large amount of space" on your Mac.  If you have tried to delete fonts, and have gotten an error message that it cannot be completed, then you are trying to delete System Fonts.  Most of the System Fonts cannot be deleted without severe damage to your Mac.  A few can be deleted, but under special circumstances.
    Are you getting some kind of warning that your Hard Disk is full, and you're shopping around looking for things to delete?  Please give us more information about your situation, OK?

  • TimeCapsule - trying to access old data from new mac

    I just got a new MBP after my previous one got severely corrupted and became un-recoverable. 
    I migrated all my data over from the Time Capsule, but immediately after the new MBP started showing the same symptoms as the dead one. Apple tech suggest wipe and clean re-installing Mavericks.  I did and it works fine.
    I have spent all day reloading software and some data from other discs, but there is some stuff that is only on the Time Capsule now. Problem is - i cannot find it on the Time Capsule.
    When i try connecting to TC it lists a SparsediskImage named to match the new computer not the old one, even though the created date is for the old mac.  It has 941gb of data, yet it wont let me look any further back than today.
    Is there any way to access the data that is in TC and just rescue those few useful files?

    You should never use Mavericks Time Machine over an old backup.
    Mount the sparsebundle in Finder and you can manually open it to an earlier date and extract info from it.
    See Q15 here.

  • Reinstalling fonts from system disk

    I need to reinstall the Helvetica and Times fonts that came with Tiger 10.4, but I don't want to reinstall the system and go through all the updates. In fact the 10.4.7 installer won't install on top of 10.4.10 anyway. Even if it did, the Custom Install option doesn't let you install just the basic fonts (you can only install additional foreign-language fonts). Is there a way to grab just a couple fonts off the Tiger disk?

    Restoring Lost OS X Files
    If you erase or otherwise "lose" an OS X system application or utility (such as Mail or Disk Utility, for example) you can restore them without having to reinstall OS X.
    Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Read the documentation. Use Pacifist to extract a fresh copy of the missing application from the file archives on your OS X Installer disc. The file archives are usually found on the installer disc in the /System/Installations/ folder.
    After restoring the application you need to reinstall the OS X Combo Updater for the version of OS X you currently have installed. This assures the new copy of the application is updated to the current version.
    Lastly, it's a good idea to repair permissions.

  • Connect to Old Backup from new mac

    I recently purchased a new mac book to replace an older one that I had backed up wtih Time Machine/Time Capsule. I need to file an old file that I backed up but my new Time Machine doesn't show any history. How to I get to my old backed up files?

    Once you're sure you've got the new Mac set up right, you should probably erase your TM disk before starting to use it for backups of the new one.
    The reason is, TM on your new Mac will not delete any of the backups from the old one when it needs space for new backups (and the first backup on the new one will be a full backup). Instead, it will delete your oldest backup of the New Mac.
    In essence, the backups from your old Mac are "stranded." You can delete them via the TM interface, but that's one at a time and rather tedious. See item 12 of the Frequently Asked Questions post at the top of this forum.

  • How to remove fonts from system: Adobe Devanagari, Adobe Gurmukhi, Adobe Fan Heiti Std, Myriad Arabic, Myriad Hebrew

    It seems that you (Adobe) have added fonts (Adobe Devanagari, Adobe Gurmukhi, Adobe Fan Heiti Std, Myriad Arabic, Myriad Hebrew) to my system, that I can't easily remove and it is quite frustrating as they appear every time I am looking for fonts and yet I will never really need them. I have cleaned all my fonts on my system, keeping it ultra lean, and only activating the sets I need when I am working on projects and I would appreciate if you could tell me where they are and how I can remove them? Many Thanks James

    Hey, I managed to remove them by deleting      "typesupport"      folder in                C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Required
    I'm not sure if there will be unexprected problems, but you can move the folder somewhere else.

  • Is Mac OS 10.5.2 safe to install?

    Hi,
    I have recently been experiencing severe problems with a MacBook which I think must be the result of recent updates Apple has released. Yesterday, I had a problem where almost every application would not open, I reinstalled Leopard and the problem was resolved. I then applied all the updates available, including 10.5.2 and the Leopard Graphics Update. This morning I shut down my computer and took it into campus. When I tried to boot the computer, it remained at the startup screen indefinitely. Booting into Windows with Boot Camp worked. I have now reinstalled Leopard for the second time in two days. Should I install any updates? They seems to be the cause of major problems for me. Here is one of the crash logs produced when my computer did not start up:

    What is the result with Safari?
    Try FireFox 3 beta:
    http://en.www.mozilla.com/en/firefox/all-beta.html
    Try Opera:
    http://www.opera.com/
    With all browsers make sure you try all Chinese encodings (Traditional Big 5, Traditional Windows, Simplified GB 2312, Simplified GB 18030) plus UTF-8 and (if available) UTF-16.
    Also you might ask on the Chinese Mac mailing list:

    Is there a MS forum on Outlook Web Access where you can ask?

  • Why is font from 'Fire' application (IM) on Mac bolded in IM on Windows?

    Using Fire and font AppleGothic or American Typewriter in IM text and when text is displayed from AOL (AIM) on Windows the font is a bolded, sans-serif font.
    There appears to be no way to prevent this text from being bolded in a Windows display. Is this correct?
    Is there some font from the Mac that will not display as bolded in a Windows display?

    Those fonts are probably not on the Windows system, so it replaces them with a default font.
    See if you can change the default font on the Windows system or use a font which is available on both, Tahoma, Verdana or Arial are examples of fonts which you can generally expect to see on both PCs and Macs.
