Working with both OS 9.2.1 and OSX 10.4 on Prismo

Hello,
My profile is not entirely correct as it is back to OS9 right now ( I think), I'll sum up what I did (some of this was probably a mistake)
Initially a Prismo Firewire with OS9:
1) Copied OS9 applications to a flash drive.
2) Replaced 12 gbhd with 120 gbhd
3) Added 512 mb more ram
4) Installed OSX Tiger 10.4
5) Installed iLife05, iMovieHD and iDVD5
6) Copied OS9 applications from flash drive to a new folder which I named "OS9 Applications" in case I needed those old apps.
7) Found out I needed some of those OS9 apps so I used the original OS9 disks and loaded 9.04 (clean install), updated to 9.1 and then updated to 9.2.1
8) Rebooted and it opened to OS9.
So did I "erase" OSX when I installed OS9?
What do I need to do to be able to use both OSX and OS9?
How do I choose what OS I want to use or how do I switch between the two OS's?
Sorry if this is a duplicate of posts by others. I looked at a lot of them and did not find any that sounded like my dilemma.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you're in OS9 now, use the Startup Disk control panel to choose OS( or OSX 10.4 - I think NetBoot may also be offered.
If you're in OSX, use the Startup Disk System Preference and choose from OS9, OSX or "Network Startup".
OSX should still be on the disk if you didn't reformat the disk when installing OS9.
Just one issue may arise, flash drives are normally formatted FAT16 or FAT32 for use with Windows PCs. Your OS9 Applications may be hosed if you haven't reformatted the flash drive to Mac HFS / HFS+. This can be achieved in Disk copy / Disk Utility.
At least you still have the 12GB drive with everything intact on it.

Best multi-function printer to work with both OS 10.3.9 and OS 10.4.6?

Now that HP's built-in obsolescence has left me looking to replace my once-trusty old psc 2175, I'm looking for another printer/scanner/copier that will do the same basics reliably & economically & with the same or better durability. (including photo card slots, plus printing via wired connection to AirPort Express) Any suggestions?
Also, since we use both G3 and G4 Macs, should I stay away from printers that specify only G4?
Thank you.,
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6) G3's are OS 10.3.9

All solved
Hi--
Can I ask what you did to solve it? My TiBook's internal airport is flaky and a PC card seems like the cheapest way to keep it going.
Thanks a lot.

What format do I ned to make my external hard drives to enable them to work with both Mac and PC?

I'd like to format several external hrd drives to work with both my Mac Book Pro and a PC in the house. Disk utility says ok for esFat to wrok with both but techies say format as FAT.
Also, does size of external have an influence on the formatting option?
Thanks. Being a relative newcomer to MAC, I am trying to learn the ropes. Thanks for any assistance you can give me.
TJ

hey
i agree with matt exFat is a hybrid with good compatibility between both windows and mac, but it has this problem with huge cluster size so it'll eat your hdd up.
if you are using it on a single windows pc you can install a HFS+ reader to that windows pc it'll enable you to read the hdd formatted HFS+ but you WON'T be able to write to it!!
anyway it's your choice since both are okay but personally i've formatted mine to HFS+ and installed a reader on the pc

Is possible to work with both Connection Pool?

Hello,
I would like to know if is it possible to work with both Connection Pools: Active Directory and DWH User? If it's yes, how can I specify to work with both simultaneously?
Thank you and regards,
Mónica.

Hello Gayathri,
The version is OBISE1 10.1.3.2.1
The scenario is the following:
I have two connection pools
- One is mapping the DWH and it is using the System's variables :USER and :PASSWORD. Then I have an Initialization Block that get these values and I have created the logins as users in the database.
- The other is mapping the DWH tables.
I want to create directly users into the repository. The problem is the users of the repository cann't do the login because the first connection pool is trying to validate then against the database.
Would be possible to validate the users against the connection pool and the repository simultaneously?
Thank you and regards,
Mónica.

I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant and my mac mini. I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers.

I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant from my mac mini. I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers. It keeps saying that I only have 2 devices setup, my iPad and my macbook pro. When I mess with the setting on my mac mini, it goes from saying that that is one of the devices to my macbook pro being the 2nd device. I think that something happened as a result of my using the migration assistant and now it thinks that my macbook pro and my mac mini are one and the same computer. Any ideas?

Thanks, Sig.
The old computer is a 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
The new one is a 2.3 GHz intel core i7
In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem. Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page. Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them.
(I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)

Will an unlocked iPhone 4S work with both CDMA and GSM SIM cards?

I was using the iPhone 4S with a GSM sim card all these years here in India and would like to switch to a CDMA carrier.
Does the phone work with both SIM cards? Or is there a separate model which works with CDMA?
Appreciate all replies.

Does apple tv work with both N wireless bands

Does apple tv work with both wireless "N" bands

Yes, I have both the 1G and 2G ATVs working off a 5 GHz n only network. Since the 2.4 GHz band can be set up to be backwards compatible with b/g networks it will work here too.
I use an Apple Time Capsule to create a dual band network. Running my ATVs and Airport Expresses on the 5 GHz band improved streaming and AirPlay speaker reliability substantially in my location. I suspected interference from my neighbor's networks as well as other 2.4 GHz sources. I had to create the 2.4 GHz network for my 1G touch and an older laptop to work which don't need as reliable of a network connection.

BSOD with both Kernal Security Check Error and Bad Pool Header.

All -
I have a HP DV7 laptop with Windows 8.1. It has BSOD with both Kernal Security Check Error and Bad Pool Header.
Despite doing all the built in HP tests, there is nothing. Using an Anker HardDrive Dock results in the identical errors on another machine.
Bottom line, even if I could see the DMP files (which I cannot); because the machine fails to boot, there are no files to be copied.
I have tried various AIO and UEFI disks and USB, and the laptop NEVER accepts the PREINSTALL environment. Being unable to use the Anker has never happened. I seem completely locked out of the drive. Any suggestions? Thx.
Bruce A Ades

Hi Texas_Bruiser
Some required details are needed for us to help you.
Ensure that the BIOS/UEFI has been configured to allow boot from DVD/CD or USB.
When you attempted to boot into PREINSTALL environment (PE) by using disks or USB, we need more details about error message or what happened?
If your computer cannot even boot into Windows PE by using installation media, we suggest you check if memory and other hardware are works properly on this computer. Also try to plug this hard disk on other computer as data volume, see if the hard disk works.

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my email. I can't seem to purchase this on-line

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my emails. I can't seem to purchase this on-line as it keeps telling me to go to the app store. I haven't got the app store on my computer as I am told I need iCloud for which I need the new operating system, which I can't download or purchase as I am sent back to an instruction telling mee to go to the app store icon.
How difficult can it be to simply purchase the software on-line have it shipped to you so you can install it, in the event it cannot be downloaded as it appears it can't be based on my curent operating systems being Mac OSX 10.5.8.

How do I do that.
I tried going to file >get info and it would not allow me to unlock.
How do I do that?

It sounds like the folder you are saving to does not have the proper permission for you to write to it. What OS are you using?

What version of iLife works with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and where can I buy it?

What version of iLife works with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and where can I buy it?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can install the latest version, iLife '11. It's available at the Mac App Store, but the versions available there aren't compatible with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, so you have to get iLife '11 on a DVD at eBay or Amazon > http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES
After installing it, open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version for Snow Leopard
