UhOh ... Flash 11.5 Only
A site tells me I need to upgrade to Flash 11.5 to view their material and since I have 10.5.8 on a PowerPC Quicksilver 2002 Dual 1GHz ... no joy. What is the solution?

Recent Finder Problem ... Just Busy Behind the Desktop Scene?
On two occasions, since upgrading to 10.5.5, my Finder seems to have gotten into something that keeps it terribly, Beachball Spinning, busy ... First time facts escape me but I think maybe it was Spotlight working ... Today, I moved / installed a Seagate 80GB hard drive from my PowerPC 8500 PCI ATA channel into an External Oxford FW case I used to have a PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-106D drive in (but moved that one to my QS since it's internal one was failing ... both the same model from 2003) ... When it came up on the Desktop, I did a Get Info then my Finder just went into Busy Mode ... I could open and play iTunes things, open Mail and look around, but couldn't close them ... each got stuck being partially closed ... and then there's the spinning beachball when I navigate to the Desktop ... Any hints on what happened? Couldn't open Activity Monitor to see what was going on Bill Connelly Musician and Painter artsite: http://mysite.verizon.net/moonstoneartstudio/ myspace: http://www.myspace.com/moonstoneartstudio --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: Source for Analyzing an eMac Tiger Mac OS Install CD Set
On Sep 19, 2008, at 6:35 PM, Simon Royal wrote: Hi There is a way to hack around this. The 'grey' machine specific discs have a similar line in the osinstall file that limits which machines it can be installed on, similar to the 'badmachines' in retail Tiger discs, that specifies which machines Tiger cannot be installed on. Remove this line and you should be able to get your eMac discs to work on any machine.

I made a gallant attempt ... but the process I used to re-create Disc 1 failed. I then tried to install using the original disks on my QS and failed. To create a modified disc 1: Under Leopard 10.5.5, I just created a Disk Utility cdr copy of the Tiger Mac OS Install DIsc 1. Then I modified the OSInstall.dist file to exclude listing of PowerMac G3 (maybe I should do them all?) by clicking on the cdr file to Mount the Disk image, modify the file, and then created another cdr file of that modified Disk Image, and burned it to CD - all using Disk Utility.. I was using modified info on the link: http://www.index-site.com/bootcd.html On my PowerPC 9500, Xpostfacto didn't like it ... know what I might have done wrong? not make it bootable in some way?

I seem to can't get past the fact that the eMac Panther Install CDs work, but my eMac Tiger ones do not.

Re: Time Machine Backup Failed ...
Meant to add, I decided to unplug my flaky USB2 wireless Airlink since it may have caused the Finder problem during my first attempt at Time Machine under 105.5. Connected to a Sonnet Trio, for USB 2. May have stabilized things.
