If your Mac has USB ports, get a cheap flash drive and copy everything over that way. Unfortunately, since you’re on Mac OS 9, there’s no other easy way to copy stuff from Mac to PC without spending money on software for either machine (Thursby Software’s DAVE would give Mac OS 9 the Windows networking protocals, or MacDrive for Windows and a firewire card would give the PC the ability to read your Mac’s hard drive without even pulling it out of the Mac).

Also, you may want to look into getting a copy of OS X for your Mac; you can find older versions on eBay and at various online Mac parts stores.

Well, I’m not sure if Homesharing works on a mac OS9, because I have a mac OSX , but thats how I got all of my Itunes songs from my macbook pro to my PC. Just see if you can do ‘Homesharing’ on Itunes with both computers…and that should work.

Comment on How many tiger barbs could I put in a 30 gallon tank? by killerchief03

For a 30 gallon tank I would suggest a school of 10-12

Yes you can use fake plants, I’d use a fair amount of them so that the barbs have somewhere to hide and feel safe if they need to (they normally just swim around everywhere)

I wouldn’t use an undergravel filter, they’re just a pain in the ass.

Buy a hang on back filter, I’d suggest and Aquaclear 50, they have a whole basket of filter media as opposed to a tiny thin cartridge.

Also be sure to buy a heater (100 watts would be perfect) and to let the tank cycle.

here’s a link on the barbs and on cycling

Best of luck!

EDIT: I love how darwin and I both suggested an Aquaclear 50 without even knowing it haha

wow that’s a big tank you have there i would recommend 15-20 with no problem.you can put in some fake plants about 3 and if you put in real ones they will ( well some because some aren’t bothered about the fact of a real plant) nibble on them but i got told its good for them but when You get some you might loose a few but that’s normal so wait a few weeks about 6 i know i have to wait 6 weeks aswell and then get some more.

good luck with your tank.

This is a fine size for tiger barbs. If you’re looking to house just tiger barbs (highly recommended) you could keep about 12-15 of them in here. Don’t let their current small size fool you, a they get to about 3" when fully grown.

Undergravel filters are dinosaurs of the filter world, and are outdated except in specific applications. Get a nice hang-on power filter, like an AquaClear 50. Be sure you have a heater.

Fake plants are fine. They are also safe with live plants. They appreciate the cover, but also need some open space, so try to put a group of plants on each side of the tank, and then some along the back, leaving the front open for swimming space.

EDIT: killerchief…you can’t argue with quality

Comment on Is there a way to run Mac OS 9 games on the OS X platform? by SilverTonguedDevil

SilverTonguedDevil — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 21:36:59 +0000

No, Classic Support does not allow you to run OS 9 without installing it. Classic Support, a group of extensions for OS 9.1 through 9.2.2, is installed from OS X into a classic System Folder. You have to have a classic System Folder installed (or copied to the hard drive) before you can install Classic Support. OS 10.1 to 10.4.11 have Classic Support as an option, and limited function can come from OS 10.0 with some Macs. OS X Public Beta could install a limited version of Classic Support that did not include networking.

Classic Environment (running a software and hardware abstraction layer that allows you to open Classic applications) requires a PPC Mac (such as a G5, G4, or G3 processor) and OS X version 10.4.11 or earlier.

Booting the computer to a classic Mac OS requires a boot ROM that facilitates this. Booting to OS 9.x is not "Classic Environment". It is true classic boot independent of OS X. Macs built before January 2003 (and after approximately January 1998) can boot to OS 9.2. Some eMacs fall outside these ranges and require another 500 words of explanation.

If you are on a PPC based mac, you can get mac (10.0 -10.2) system disk and install Classic Support. Classic Support enables mac to run OS9 applications on OSX without installing the OS9 system.

Comment on How can i update my macbook OS9.2-Os 10? by ELfaGeek

ELfaGeek — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 21:06:59 +0000

Here are the minimum hardware requirements for OS X leopard 10.5:

My best guess is your Mac is just too old for Leopard, but OS X Tiger 10.4 may run. You might find it on eBay.

Failing that, you are stuck with 9.2. It IS nearly 5 years old.
