I reinstalled a clean Mac OS 9.1, rebooted, installed the Mac OS 9.2.1 update, rebooted, and now it starts up fine both as the startup disk, and from within Mac OS X.-cris # AppleScript crash Authored by: vivekb on Aug 28, '01 04:37:27PM I installed 9.2.1 on my powerbook firewire, and the machine freezes when i try to use the applescript. First of all, there are no C features that are dependent on Unix. C runs just fine on Windows, and it runs just fine on 8-bit microcontrollers. As for classic Mac OS, there were two primary programming environments: Metrowerks CodeWarrior and Apple's MPW. CodeWarrior came with a library called SIOUX which opened up a window and provided simple I/O. The HDD is formatted into two partitions, both HFS (Mac OS.

This is the MacOS 9 desktop. Over all the user interface is not muchdifferent from the MacOS 8.x desktop but there have been many technicalimprovements and some new features added. (Note, these screen shots alsoshow a useful third party utility called 'Dave' that enables Macs to fullyparticipate in a Windows NT network)

The control strip, which was available for earlier versions of MacOShas been improved. You can now simply drag tiles onto the strip to installthem, instead of having to put them in 'Control Strip Modules.' You cannow also delete one by holding the Option key, then dragging it out.
Mac OS 9 can, optionally, have multiple users. Each user can have adifferent desktop theme and sound settings. Users can be given limitedpermissions so as to prevent them from messing up the Mac while still lettingthem use it.
With multiple users enabled the above login box appears at startup.Microsoft completely ripped off the appearance of this login window inWindows XP.
This is the multiple user control panel used to add and modify usersettings.
A very funky feature of MacOS 9 is that it can use your voiceprintas a password. You record a phrase and when you log in it does not justcheck the phrase but also that you are the one saying it.
Also on the subject of security, MacOS 9 adds the ability to encryptfiles on your hard drive.
A screen shot of MacOS 9 browsing the hard drive to show some of itsicons. In 9.0 - 9.0.4, most applications would install to the 'Applications'folder. 9.1 changed that, as it shipped at the same time, and along with,Mac OS X 10.0. 'Applications' is now used for OS X applications, and 'Applications(Mac OS 9) for OS 9 apps. It cannot be renamed to remove the (Mac OS 9).
MacOS 9 ships with Sherlock 2. You can use it to search your hard drive,as well as places on the internet. Google even has a plugin you can installthat allows Sherlock to search it.
This version of MacOS also ads a software update feature that can getsystem software and application updates from Apple over the internet. Youcan get updates manually or schedule a time to get updates automatically.
It also adds a network browser that enables you browse file servers,web servers and FTP servers.
Also on the subject of networking, MacOS 9 has an improved versionof AppleScript that can work remotely over TCP/IP with other Macintoshes.
Not that it is part of MacOS (thank goodness) but a web browser thatwas once popular for it was Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 for the Mac.Microsoft, however, has completely abandoned IE for the Mac. Thisversion will run on 9.x but actually can run on MacOS as far back as 8.1(on PPC only). There is also a MacOS X native version but Microsoft hasabandoned that version as well.

The last version of Mozilla that will Run on MacOS 9 is version 1.2.1.Unlike IE, however, Mozilla is still being actively developed for MacOSX.
This is the Quicktime 6 Player, MacOS 9.0 - 9.1 comes with Quicktime4, and 9.2.1 comes with Quicktime 5. Quicktime is used internally by MacOSfor many image, drawing, and sound operations.
