That's super weird. I wonder if it's not really some kind of automatic year insert, such as "10.2.9 will be released in mid-[CURRENT_YEAR] to address several bugs", but that would …

" There are rumors that 10.2.9 will be released in mid-2009 to address several bugs and vulnerabilities that remain in version 10.2.8." http://lowendmac.com/osx/jaguar-10.2/index.…

I installed that and opened a .MID file that I had made on another computer and I didn't get any signal coming out of the machine into the MIDI unit I have. I don't understand what…

Here's the download for MIDIgraphy from Harmony Central: http://www.harmony-central.com/Software/Mac/midigraphy.html

Update: Installed a lean version of 7.5.3, now to replace those leaky gross caps on the logic board. Bleh.

There's a shareware sequencer called MIDIgraphy that IIRC will run on System 7. Searching these forums for MIDI will reveal other clues.

Ok I finally used what little knowledge of UNIX I have to figure out what I was doing wrong and make a proper boot disk. Thanks to JRL for helping me get my computer to boot up ag…

I mean I did exactly what the procedure in the link I posted above told me to do. It seemed to work fine, no error messages were displayed. What am I doing wrong?

What machine are you installing 7.1 on, and do you have another old Mac to verify the network disk you made? Pretty much any Mac that came with a floppy drive will boot from the 7.…

So I had to just turn the machine off before the install finished and now when I boot up I get the old "The 'System' file on this startup disk may be damaged. The Installer can be …

An alternative to 7.1.1 is 7.5.3 (freely available from Apple; no need to download an unauthorized OS release of dodgy ancestry). If the size bothers you, just use Gamba's "digital…

Where did your "Programs" disk come from? Scribbling the word "Programs" on a disk with a crayon isn't going to fool it.

....it is asking me for the disk "Programs" which did not come with the OS I downloaded from Macgarden. What the heck is it talking about? Before I installed the new OS I had a dis…

Empty? Guess there isn't a pot of gold at the end of each rainbow Click to expand... A new CD caddy is better than nothing. You don't get CD's with the caddies. xD

PM me your email and I'll send you the actual file.

I found a place that has MIDI Manager but for some reason the StuffIt I have on my MacBook Pro doesn't want to open it. It's here: http://www.harmony-central.com/Software/Mac/midi…

I saw that but I am using System 7.0.1, should I use that bootable 7.5.3 disk that someone posted on one of the other threads to install this software?

A good idea is to use Apple MIDI Manager/PatchBay and OMS (yes, a System 7.1 compatible version is out there). I believe that neither are too hard to find. Here is OMS for System…

I am using my Mac Classic II for MIDI performance. Aside from having a hard time finding appropriate software, I am a bit confused as to how it all works. Right now I'm using some…

If the CC has indeed been off as long as the auctioneer said it was, all the fancy upgrades were probably done expensively at a time way before all the VGA hacks were widespread on…

Same situation as me, spotted a rainbow! Small but precious conquests!

Yep, cutting down the backplate from an LC575 works a treat - use the original CC backplate as a guide. You only need to drill a couple of holes to get it to mount in the existing…

Huh, I should try that. I just assumed it was something I had done wrong when upgrading to VGA. On another note, does anybody know of a mod that can create a new motherboard cover…

I do own a CC, but it's currently in shambles; everything it displays lacks the color red... Click to expand... Had the same issue - resoldered the wires going to the yoke, and…
