Running under classic mode - Standard Options

In WLS 5.1 server, there was an option to run under classic mode in a UNIX environment.
We just upgraded to WLS 6.1 and in the docs, http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61/perform/JVMTuning.html
it mentions classic mode available in NT but not in UNIX.
Does anyone know if the java option -classic will work under 6.1 and if not, what
the new option is.

-classic asks the JVM to use the old non-HotSpot JVM. First off, why do
you want to use it? It's most likely slower.

  • I have an eMac that shipped with 10.4 and want to set it up so that it will run in Classic mode?

    I have an eMac that shipped with 10.4 and want to set it up so that it will run in Classic mode? However, when I launch System Restore it asks me to load the disc marked with teh sinfgle dot but then doesn't seem to run it?

    Follow up. I went to the site at the link I refered to and downloaded the recomended
    "NetBoot for Mac OS 9."       http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1192
    The netbook9.dmg needs to be mounted on a PPC Mac as it would not open on a the intel Mac I used for downloading. (Reason - legacy image should be converted.) I copied to a G4 iBook and mounted it then saved the english folder conaining the NetBook.pkg. From there follow the attached picture using Pacifist to extract the NetBook HD folder which contains an OS 9.2.2 System folder.

  • Need old version and does HiQ run in Classic mode on Mac OS

    I'm hoping an NI rep responds to this: I'm a licensed user of HiQ 2.2 for Mac. I switched to Mac OS X, did not reinstall HiQ, and no longer have my original floppies. Is there any way I can get a replacement? Also, can anyone tell me if HiQ will run in Mac OS X's Classic mode?

    Thank you, Chris. I just wanted to confirm. It's a shame that NI dropped HiQ. I'm having a heck of a time doing the simplest things with Mathematica ---steep learning curve--- and it can't do some of the things that HiQ could!

  • VI server application runs under debug mode but not other wise

    I have an application which uses VI server to call vi's on my targets hard drive. When I run this using the highlight execution( or debug ) this works OK, however when I run without this I get error 66, connection closed by peer. When I look at my target using a direct monitor connection I get various messages relating to memory errors. I have run virtually the same code calling a simpler application and this seems to work fine, however when I simply target the RT engine with the same code ( using the RT comms wizard construction) I don't get a problem. This should, I think, be using the same amount of memory. What is the best was of assessing the memory available against the memory required? Do anyone have a
    ny ideas as to why the VI should run with execution highlighted and not without. I have tried adding delays so simulate this but it doesn't seem to work.

    Check out this KnowledgeBase article. It describes how to enable a memory monitoring tool that might help solve your problem.

  • What iMacs run System 9 software in Classic Mode and also iLife in Sys 10?

    I understand that there were versions of System 10 that ran on iMac G3s that would run old System 9 software in Classic Mode, and also would run iLife (special interest in Garage Band and iMovie). What model of iMac would do this? What hardware requirements should I look for? What would be the optimal configuration to do what I'm trying to do?
    Can I hook up an external floppy drive to an iMac? Are those drive still easily acquirable?
    What versions of systems 10 ran in Classic mode? I've heard that System 10 with Classic mode can be buggy. How significant is this? When did System 10 stop running in Classic mode? Is it traditionsal to get System disks included when you buy an iMac off of eBay?
    Thanx.

    Ed,
    The last version that would boot into classic is 10.4.X (.11 last version). That said I was never a fan of classic mode. It never seemed right to me that's why I set those few up as dual booters. They were used in a classroom with pre k thru middle school kids.
    If you are using classic mode and it runs good for you than go for it.
    My computer at school runs at 600 Mhz and has 256 Mb of memory. How much memory would you suggest.
    Tiger will actually run at 256 but would be better at 512 or 768.
    How would a machine like that do as part of a wireless network?
    It should do fine. It will need a special adapter (which I can supply) and the original Airport Card.
    Could it be connected to a network that's administered by a PC?
    Should be no problem. Our's is set up that way and wireless Macs work fine. The problem I've seen w/ PC administered networks is the Administrator him/herself.
    what is a G3 slot loader?
    There were two types of G3 iMacs, the early tray loaders and the later slot loaders.
    700 and 800 eMacs will also run OS 9.
    So I just upgraded our music room at the school. It has iMac G3s 450 - 600s, eMac 1.25s, G4 Minis and Intel Minis. So we're running iLife 09 and 05.
    Garage Band 09 will only run in 10.5.6 and that will only run on a G4 or better w/ a processor 867 MHz or faster. My son runs it on his eMac 1.25 GHz w/ 1.5 GB RAM.
    Oh for your kid check out Kid's Pix 4 it runs in either OS. Our kids are also crazy about Zoombinis.

  • IMac G5 PPC Using OS X 10.4.10 & OS X Classic Mode--Can They Work Together?

    I do not have a system folder for OS 9 on my hard drive and an Apple technician said I cannot run OS 9 Classic mode on my computer. However, David Pogue's book "Mac OS X Tiger Edition, The Missing Manual" and many of these Apple discussion posts seem to indicate that running Mac OS 9 on my iMac G5 PPC with OS X 10.4.10 should be possible. Would someone be able to help me? Can I run the Classic mode and, if so, how would I get the necessary stuff into my computer? I still have my original Mac OS X Tiger (includes Xcode 2) Install DVD version 10.4. Thanks!

    Hi, Mark. You may have misunderstood the Apple technician. I hope so, because if he said what you thought he said, he was dead wrong. You can indeed run old OS 9-based applications in Classic mode on your G5, if you use the Classic-support installer you'll find on one of the discs that came with the computer to install a suitable OS 9 System Folder on your hard drive. What you can't do on the G5 is run OS 9 *as an operating system*, without OS X running at all. Classic mode uses a slightly modified version of OS 9 as a sort of super-application or "shell" within which older, non-OSX-native applications can run under OS X.
    Check the "Read before you install" file(s) on your original iMac OS Installer Disc 1 for instructions on installing Classic support from that disc or set of discs.

  • OS 10 in classic mode

    I am running OS 10.4.8 and trying to use it in classic mode (kid games). When it was installed I did not upgrade, but simply loaded a new version of Tiger.
    I want to buy/download the software I need to run in classic mode for these games. Can anybody tell me what I need to get to run 9 X?
    Thanks!

    revolve-comx:
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Can anybody tell me what I need to get to run 9 X?
    You need to install OS 9. However, that depends on a couple of things.
    1. Your profile does not say what G4 computer you have. Computers that shipped with OS X and not OS 9, may not support it.
    2. If your computer supports OS 9, you will need to have OS 9 drivers installed. To check whether you do, go to Apple Menu > More Info > Hardware > ATA. In the section it should look like this:ATA Bus:
    TOSHIBA MK1032GAX:
    Capacity: 93.16 GB
    Model: TOSHIBA MK1032GAX
    Revision: AB211A
    Serial Number: 65KE2771T
    Removable Media: No
    Detachable Drive: No
    BSD Name: disk0
    Protocol: ATA
    Unit Number: 0
    Socket Type: Internal
    OS9 Drivers: Yes
    S.M.A.R.T. status: Verified
    If these conditions obtain, you can purchase OS 9 disks from applerescue.
    Please do not hesitate to post back should you have further questions or comments.
    Good luck.

  • G4 hangs when opening or saving Word 2001 files in Classic mode.

    Hello, everyone.  I have a G4 400 MHz AGP Graphics ("Sawtooth") model with Microsoft Word 2001 that runs in Classic mode.  Recently, when I have tried to open files, the symbol that looks like a tiny clock face with a spinning hand appears, but nothing else happens.  This occurs before a dialog window appears prompting for the selection of a file from a particular folder.  I can create a new file and type text, but when I try to save the file, the tiny clock face also appears, but nothing else.  This also occurs before a dialog window appears prompting for the name of a file and for the selection of a folder in which to save.  I can successfully open files in Microsoft Excel 2001 in Classic mode.  I did not test PowerPoint 2001.
    I'm wondering if the default folder where Word 2001 is trying to open and save files has so many files in it that this G4 isn't able to handle the resultant load.  Has anyone encountered something similar?
    Also, I'm wondering if I should try to reinstall Word 2001.  Does anyone have any ideas in that regard?
    Thank you.
    -John

    Hi John,
    Have you tried changing the save location in Word's Preferences?
    Might look into NeoOffice...
    http://www.neooffice.org/
    Or Open Office...
    http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/download/index.html
    I think they both have older 10.4 versions that can handle Word & Excel docs.

  • Boot into classic mode

    hey all
    I have iBook G4, OS 10.3.9 with classic 9 install in the system. My daughter wants to play her game JS Advanced 3rd grade in it, but every time she tries to run the program it says "low disc space please free up some memory and restart the system" but in my system I have 6.68 GB available, according to the software tec support I have to "BOOT INTO CLASSIC MODE FIRST, THEN RUN THE INSTALLATION WIZARD OF THE PROGRAM" can any one tell me how do I have to boot into classic mode first, then run the install and run the application, they said "DO NOT TRY TO RUN THROUGH CLASSIC MODE WHILE IN OSX" please guide me through in steps as I am not good in mac OS...
    THANKS IN ADVANCE

    Hi faisalzia,
    open system preferences and click "Classic". Select the OS 9 system folder and click "Start". Now quit system preferences and follow the directions.
    The second message seems to contradict the first one. It is known that there are many games that are not compatible with MacOS X and that also require to boot into OS 9 natively and cannot run in Classic mode (Classic mode is sort of an emulation of OS 9 within MacOS X). To do that open system preferences again, select "Startup disk" and select the OS 9 system folder as boot-system. Now restart and you should boot into OS 9.

  • Won't save in classic mode

    I have a G3 iBook with OS 10.3.9 and OS 9 that runs in Classic mode. My applications that use classic won't save to disk. I get a message that says "File saving not allowed in that area". I bought the computer used so I don't know how it was set up. What do I need to do to get saving permission in classic mode?

    Thanks for the tip.
    I did run the utility and the log showed errors found and repaired. I ran it a second time and no errors found. I started up Excel, which runs on classic on my machine, and tried to save to the desktop. I got the same "Saving in this area not allowed" message. I bought an external disk by Lacie to use as a backup and I can't even save directly to that disk when running an application in Classic mode. I can save a file to disc in Texteditor, then open it in Word and save the file in Word, but I can't save a new file created in Word.

  • Firefox 21 will only run in Admin. mode on Win 7 Pro. Also when I installed FF21 it came with a nasty virus.

    Those are the details. FF 21 will not run on my system unless I choose Run as Administrator. So far none of the guesses posted by your tech support about this question in the past have worked.
    I have removed the virus and removed FF and reinstalled. Same problem. I removed it again totally and reinstalled, same problem. I have installed it again under an Admin account and I still have the same problem. All of the earlier versions of FF worked fine in user mode.

    I know that there are many posts on the internet dealing with FF having to be run under Admin. mode, but none of the guesses as to why have solved this problem. I also realize that most people running 21, judging from the lack of reaction, are running fine in user mode. But it would seem that the FF development team would be interested in this situation.
    The trojan that came in on the FF install shut down Trusteer Rapport, a security software that my bank uses and recommends. The Trusteer support team worked with me to disable and remove the Trojan. That is what is called service.

  • Utilizing Multiple-Processors in Classic Mode?

    I have four PPC based scientific programs that will only run in classic mode. They take hours to run each, and so I am considering purchasing a Power Mac G5 Quad (2.5 GHz) to do so. Question: Can I run the 4 programs simultaneously, and can I ensure that each one runs on a different processor so that I will get the desired performance increase? (I currently run the programs on an iMac G5, OS X 10.4.11, and can run them all together if I want - but that doesn't improve performance...).
    thanks,
    Photonic

    Apple made G4/500DP, 533DP, 800DP etc. And there are still cpu upgrades for pre-MDD models. The 1.42DP was the fastest made at the time, but not the only one, and not without some heat and noise issues.

    One report showed Classic running on G5.
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G5/g5firstimpressions.html
    And for some applications, they aren't written to, or benefit from running on multiple cores. And Classic is probably just such an application. OS 9 was not known for being efficient at giving foreground and background apps more cpu cycles.

    You said that right now it takes hours to run currently on your iMac G5. Your Intel iMac running @ 3GHz might be able to run SheepShaver, but the more I looked into it, the more iffy it seemed. But that would answer the question of whether you need to look at a new $1500 Quad G5, or invest in something else. or use your new iMac.

    SheepShaver - Although it took me a few days to get it up and running, in hindsight, SheepShaver was the easiest of the three to install and configure. This is due to the fact that, while it requires a ROM file like the others, this ROM file can be obtained from Apple installation CDs or update disk images available from their Web site. http://www.atpm.com/12.09/classic.shtml

  • Upgrade 10.3 to 10.4 With Classic Mode

    I have a second G5 with 10.3 that I would like to upgrade to 10.4.  Will this affect the functionality of Classic mode?  I use it for Typestyler.  Their OSX version is funky.

    I have a G4 MDD normally running Tiger OS 10.4. I also have an older version of TypeStyler that I run in Classic mode. Works like it would if I was booted into OS 9.

  • Classic mode.

    I want my Mac Pro to run Mac OS 9 Applications.
    in System preferences/ Startup disk, I have only Mac OS X available.

    I want my Mac Pro to run Mac OS 9 Applications.
    Can't be done with a Mac Pro unless you go with 3rd-party hacks such as Sheepshaver. <http://sheepshaver.cebix.net/> Note that Sheepshaver has problems with some versions of the Mac OS, and that some applications have problems with Sheepshaver. What apps do you need to run in OS 9?
    in System preferences/ Startup disk, I have only Mac
    OS X available.
    I am told I need to install Mac OS 9 From my disks i
    got when I purchased the machine.
    That used to be the case, with PPC Macs. It is no longer the case with Intel Macs because Classic doesn't run on Intel Macs and Apple therefore didn't bother shipping OS 9. Even if you get Sheepshaver you'll need to get a copy of some version of the Mac OS between 7.5 and 9.0.4 from somewhere.

    anywhere.
    Please help I would like my machine to run in classic

  • Can't run software in Classic mode

    Boy, I've tried to fix this myself and just can't. I have a new out-of-the-box Mac Mini with a generic USB keyboard. I've got some old Mac software (really old) which is really a main reason I bought the mini. I can't get Classic to run because it's not already installed. I have the OS9.2.1 disc, but I can't boot from the CD (I tried pressing C on bootup -- either my Mac can't boot from CD or my keyboard doesn't communicate properly). When I try to run the OS9 installer to get Classic to work, I get the hair-pulling error message that I need to run the installer in Classic
    mode.
    A friend said I need the discs which came with the Mini, but I don't think there are any. Can the software which should have come with it be downloaded and burned on to a new CD in order to create a bootable CD?
    Argh!!! Please help!
    Warren

    Thanks -- I did try that, just forgot to mention it. the CD isn't one of the options in startup disk. It says I can choose the hard drive or the network, and I've tried both. A friend said that Mac Minis can't boot from CD -- don't know if that's correct or not, but I can't seem to get it as an option.
    I've tried to find any CD that may have come with the Mac Mini -- my friend said to look for one called "additional software and apple hardware test CD that came with the Mac Mini" but that is nowhere to be found. Either it didn't actually come with it (my hunch) or the staff in the receiving department took them out for safekeeping and hid them in a drawer somewhere and have forgotten. (Also possible.)
    I can't imagine that I'm the only person in the world with this problem, but my tech support staff warned me in the first place. I wanted to try using some macs mixed in with our PC setup (because they can run this software, and because it seemed easy) and they said that they wouldn't be able to provide much support, since they're all PC people. I figured "how much support can it need? They're designed to be easy to use!" Oh well.
    I'd really be keen to get any more suggestions from anyone who can help!!
