I finally got it working! The cable that I had purchased was not a cross over cable and the Mac requires one to hook up to the Roland so a bit of splitting and soldering was in ord…

Really?! Awesome! I had a dream that my Mac Classic 2 started working, but then when I went to turn it on in real life, I kicked my self. Click to expand... Yeah, I always wake…

Wanna hear about a strange dream I had last night? This is great: I dreamt that I was at the reference section of a library at some university. Anyway, I had found a shelf with a w…

The 10.2.9 in 2009 rumor first appeared as a fake information in Wikipedia in an already reverted edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mac_OS_X_v10.2&oldid=2868…

Your apple badge is definitely different from mine. Mine has a brown box around it. But that machine right there is certainly unique. I haven't seen anything like it. Mine has a da…

I am using jaguar. On one of my Clamshells

I'd say its just a typo...lets face it, hardly anyone uses Jaguar anymore, not to mention that all the machines that can run Jaguar are now on Apple's Vintage and Obsolete hardware…

Well I didn't know that the Apple IIe was available in platinum color Click to expand... You must have the only one!

The top DuoDisk also appears to be platinum... I've only ever seen beige.

They should at least allow Safari 2 or something.

This isn't even from Apple or apple.com. No way.

I think it's just a typo. I'm guessing the author meant to write "mid-2004" but accidentally wrote "mid-2009" because he was thinking about "10.2.9" from earlier in the sentence.

Wow not true.

Yeah, that strikes me as very un-Apple-like. Since OS X first came out, they have only ever released ONE update after the next major release came out (10.4.11,) and that was less …

Are your MIDI send and receive channels consistent on the Mac and the JV? In other words, are you sending the MIDI data out of the Mac and into the JV on the same MIDI channel?

Definitely odd, and it seems very unlike Apple to do this for such an old version of OS X. :?:

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 …

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.…
