Using programme that only works in Classic 10.4

Hello,
I have a prgramme that I use often. On my old iBook laptop (using 10.4) it opened in Classic, now only new MacBook Pro I seem to not have access to anything like classic. Is there anyway I can get access to it to use that programme on my new computer?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, Luis -
The problem is that the new Intel-processor Macs, which your MacBook Pro is, can not use Classic. There is no direct workaround for that.
One solution that some folk have tried is using an emulator like SheepShaver -

http://gwenole.beauchesne.info/projects/sheepshaver/
SheepShaver can use a maximum version of OS 9.0.4. If the program you need to use requires OS 9.1 or later, SheepShaver won't work for your purposes. Even if OS 9.0.4 is sufficient, results vary from user to user. It may not be able to run your program adequately.
The best solution is to get a newer version of that program, one which will run natively in OSX on your machine; or a replacement OSX-native program that will do what you want.

    I have a bluetooth headset that only works in phone feature but not in itunes or apps on my iphone, please help.
    It works fine through my macbook, can't find anything in settings on iphone to resolve problem

    The headset has to have A2DP capability, which most (I believe) do not.

  • Using a plugin that only works with CS3 (how to downgrade CS4 to CS3)

    I work for a company that sells HP Indigo Presses
    HP have produced a plugin called Smartstream Designer which is used to create varible data jobs for the press
    Unfortunately at the moment, this plugin only works with Indesign CS3
    I have a number of customers who have recently purchased new Apple macintosh computers and the latest version of Indesign (ie CS4)
    (1) Is there any way for them to downgrade their copy of Indesign so they can use this plugin
    At some time in the future the plugin will be updated to work with CS4 and when that happens they will need to upgrade
    (2) will there be any problem performing this upgrade at a later date?
    thanks for your help

    The only way to downgrade would be to find a CS3 license on the open market, an iffy proposition as authorized resellers no longer have older versions available. The CS4 license would still be fine in the future.

  • I have an app that only works on IE7 is there a firefox version equivalent to IE&7?

    My LTS 2808me DVR's only work on IE7, and I can no longer down garde that far to IE7 on my windows laptop. I was told that firefox has a version equilent to IE7 , how do I download it?

    If that application is using proprietary IE (MS) code then it will only work in IE and not in Firefox.
    You can install a portable (ESR) Firefox version to access websites that do not work with the current Firefox release.
    The portable version comes with its own profile folder and doesn't interfere with the currently installed release version.

  • TS3276 Yosemite Mail Messages Viewer only works in Classic

    Message Viewer is on the screen for less than 1 second then it disappears.  I used Mail Preferences to turn on Classic Viewer so I can now see my messages but I would much prefer to be using the new viewer.  How do I get it back?

    I partially solved this problem by removing  'MessagesView.car' from Mail>Content>Resources folder. Remember to quit mail first. Also to find Content folder by holding down Control then click and hold Mail to get 'Show Package Content'.  Then click use Classic in Mail Preference.  Not great but at least I have my VIP and Mail Boxes back.

  • Apple LaserWriter utility that only works on OS 9 - now what?

    10.5 will not allow OS 9 run even if is in a classic partition.
    What about those of us that are still using Apple Laserwriters and no utility was ever made for it under OS 10? Had to keep OS 9 for that utility. There are times I still need to use the utility to change printer features.
    First Apple don't give access to an Apple printer under OS X and now they break the only path available under OS 9.
    Any suggestions? (No, buying a new Postscript laser printer is not an option!)

    Hi, Derryl. Repost your question in the Printing in Leopard forum, where you may find someone who has a more elegant workaround for you.
    The only one that occurs to me is to create a partition on your hard drive containing a bootable OS X 10.3.x or 10.4.x with Classic support installed, and boot to that partition whenever you need to tweak the Printer Utility.

  • I have an apple id. that only works with the German store. But I am English speaking only...what should I do?

    I have an apple id. but that always takes me to the German store, I live in Berlin. But I am English speaking only...what should I do?

    Learn German?
    You can only use the Store for the country in which you reside.  I have never looked at the German store so I don't know what it offers.  It is possible there is limited Eglish offerings but Apple is basically limited by what the distributors will present to them, and probably by what will actually sell.

  • How to run a app that only works in 10.4

    My version of Vectorworks only runs in 10.4
    I want to upgrade my Mac to 10.6
    I do not want to reboot into a 10.4 hard drive to just run Vectorworks.
    I want a solution that would run 10.4 simultaneously like Classic was when OSX first came out.
    Any ideas?

    Sorry, that is not possible.

    I go to Settings and want to dissconnect imessage- because imessage only can go between apple items like ipad and ipod. I want to be able to reach other s with other smartphones as well. What do I do ?

    With an iPad you can't. At least not just with the native app. iPads do not support SMS messaging. you will need to look into alternate messaging apps from the app store, such as Text Plus.
