Older Software

Hello,
I am a newer mac user, I got a position at a local school district doing PC Support for both macs and PC's (85% Macs though) We have some older software that we use that the people need to print from. These programs open the Classic software to open and try to print in the same way. How would i go about adding Print Drivers for newer printers, and also set up Jet Direct printing. I can do it in OSX 10.3.9, but the Classic part is throwing me for a loop. I came into this job only knowing PC's and a little linux, and i've been here for about 2 months now.
Thanks for the help!

Are you running with Mac OS X Server? If so, almost everything a User creates is put in his home directory on the Server by default. You may need to look there, too.
On stand-alone OS 9, sometimes those files are in a spool folder inside the System Folder, waiting to be printed. Sometimes called "PrintMonitor Documents". PrintMonitor is the de-spooler, which will need to be enabled to de-spool.

    After installing the new software to my iPhone 4S , my dream zoo either will not start or when it does it has a blank screen that has a few icons on it that wont work. How can I fix this is it possible to go back and reinstall the older software ?

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • Can I partition an external drive and install 10.6.8 so I can run some older software?

    I have older software that won't run on my 21.5 iMac. Can I partition a 3TB Lacie external drive, then install 10.6.8 on it so I can use the older software?

    The computer that I purchased did come with Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac, but I thought that was only for running some Windows software. Not a clue how to use it.
    I actually asked a similar question about installing the older system on the external drive when I talked to Apple yesterday. They guy said go ahead and try it! Huh?

  • My quicktime is very jerky with 1080p video but when I play the video file in FCPX its smooth. I recently upgraded to OS mavericks on iMac with 16gb of ram and should not be having this problem. Is it possible to reinstall older software?

    My quicktime is very jerky with 1080p video but when I play the video file in FCPX its smooth. I recently upgraded to OS mavericks on 2011 iMac with 16gb of ram and should not be having this problem. Is it possible to reinstall older software? I cant figure whats causing the jerky video so I'm assuming its the new OS. Any one have any suggestions?

  • I have an old airport express, but the software on my computer does not accept it. I need to downgrade the software, but the older software will not install.

    I have a old G4, I want to give to my son. It does not have a wireless card and because his room is on the second floor it is impossible to connect with a wire.
    I wish to add an airport express to my airport extreme network and connect the computer and the airport express together with a cable. Is this possible?
    second question:
    software does not install.
      I do have a network with a airport extreme and want to add the old airport express to it. I want to do this with airport software, however the software tells me the airport express is to old and i need to reinstall older software 5.6 to be precise. However installing fails, so I thought i just remove the airport software, but osx does not allow me to do that.

    i managed to install the older airport utility and am trying to set up a connection with an existing network, but airport utility cannot find the airport extreme AFTER it starts up again. I then went and again restored it to its factory settings and did the whole procedure again with airport utility, but again after utility tells the airport express to restart it does not come back.

  • Older Software Question

    I have some older software (Creative Suite Premier from 2006).  I have been using it without issue for the most part but am now looking to either load it onto a new computer or upgrade to a cloud version.  Is my only option to sign up as a new customer since I don't have CS3?  I'm not really interested in paying 50/month. It would be great to be able to talk to someone about this, or speak to someone in tech support about why Photoshop won't recognize my serial number but all the other programs do.  I tried the online tools for help with this, but they didn't solve the problem, so I just haven't been using it.  Thanks.

    You have not provided any system information or other details, so we can't help you with your PS issue nor can we actually advise on which route to take with your new software. We simply don't know what your needs are based on your lack of info.

  • I want to maintain Safari 10.6.8 on my computer and then install Maverick on a separate internal drive so I can run new FCPX software and maintain the older OS for my older software versions.  Can you tell me how please?

    I want to maintain Safari 10.6.8 on my computer and then install Maverick on a separate internal drive so I can run new FCPX software and maintain the older OS for my older software versions.  Can you tell me how please?
    I see an upgrade path from Safari but don't want to change that and would like to be able boot from Maverick when needed.
    Is this possible and how?
    Thank you!

    On the Apple site I see an upgrade path but not from scratch.  I will use my current systems and then it place a complete install of Maverick on the other drive to boot from?
    Thank you!

  • I accidentally purchased a product that needs Lion operating system. I currently have snow leopard. If I upgrade, will my older software (Adobe Creative Suites CS3) still operate properly?

    I'm currently running Mac OSX 10.6.8. I accidentally purchased a product that requires Lion or Mountain Lion. If I upgrade to Maverick, will this software run properly, and will my older software (Adobe Creative Suites CS3) still run?

    CS2 is no longer supported without Rosetta, last available in 10.6.8
    Also, my top popular Applications in the same boat:
    Office 2004 and older including Word
    Eudora 6
    FileMaker Pro 6
    AppleWorks (all versions)
    Quicken 2007** (inexpensive "upgrade" available)
    NB> You may HATE 10.7 -- I know I do, and refuse to run it. It eliminates the Save command, and implements Document versioning. I am too set in my ways to make such a fundamental change. (and then the changes were largely abandoned in the next major version).

  • HT201320 How do I limit the number of emails in ios7? On older software I could limit mail to 50 or so.

    I have thousands of email in my Verizon account. Now that I've upgraded to ios7, they're all stored on my phone and it keeps locking up. In older versions of the software I could limit the number of emails on my phone. I can't find that setting in ios7. Any ideals?

    Thanks, but issue of pain for me is on opposite side, as per thread above:
    I do not want so many emails stored on iPad storage.
    All I want to be able to limit emails stored to, say, last 3 days.
    If older emails are available available only via search on server , I am fine that.
    With this change in iOS7 Apple undertook shameless effort to press users to buy more expensive higher strife devices, and for sooner depreciation of previous line of models.

    thanks in advance
