There's an Eject application and Control Strip module that Apple included with OS 9. I don't know if it works on any older systems. I'm on my laptop right now, but I'll try to up…

30 Old Mac Books — #1
No, that's not not 30 old MacBooks — 30 old Mac books.
Though finding 30 old MacBooks would, of course, be a most welcome event in life (should anyone "out there" be so minded as …
IIci acquisition — #17
Unless you've got a lot of extensions and control panels installed, I'd say your problem is that you have 32 bit addressing turned off. With 32 bit addressing turned off, the syste…
IIci acquisition — #16
You need to turn on 32-bit addressing in the Memory Control Panel of that IIci in order to take advantage of your 20MB of RAM.
Back in days of yore, of course, that was a LOT of RA…
Apple MIDI Interface — #11
Back before I really knew what MIDI was, I was running a really old keyboard on a 486. It was this product: http://www.oldsoftware.com/MusicStar.html

Hope this helps, by the way one other thing - the 6360 is a PCI based PowerPC system, therefore threads on it should go into the PCI Power Mac & Performa forum under PowerP…
Language switching? — #4
The MP120 has a socketed ROM, meaning that you can pull it and replace it with the ROM from an English or French machine. There is, however, a further complication, in that when th…
CD open button not working — #3
If you need to open the tray on boot, just hold the mouse button down, and it should pop out.
If you're on the desktop, switch to the Finder, and in the "Special" menu, there is a…
CD open button not working — #2
As far as I'm aware, the CD drive cannot be opened by software unless there's a disc in the drive. The CD buttons on these systems can get hard to open if there's no shim between t…

OS9 on Cube 7448 — #6
Yes, I know. Only problem; I seem to have misplaced the CPU... *Grrrrrr*
Same problem applies to the "SuperDrive"; the original optical drive have gone missing as well, and the re…

It would have been easier to follow Bunsen's advice. If you still have the original CPU, put that one back in the Cube, install OS 9.2.1 and 9.2.2 upgrade, then put the CPU upgrad…
OS9 on Cube 7448 — #4
I think I might have cracked my own problem; enabling me to install OS 9.2.2 without my original cube CPU, and without installing on another computer:
1. re-install Mac OS 10.4 (C…

OS9 on Cube 7448 — #3
If you still have the original CPU, swap that in, install, and swap back. You might want to get a legit full retail copy of 9.2.2. as well.
Is the optical drive known good? ie w…

Yeah, the only thing I can think of is to get a cheap G4 CPU online, like one that came out of a sawtooth or something. (I looked at pictures and they theoretically should work. bo…
