It will *not* run on 10.5.8, however. It will also run on OS 9, though I usually prefer 5.5 there. I prefer Photoshop 7.0.1 to any of the later CS releases because it is the last Photoshop that doesn't require Adobe's ridiculous activation scheme. -- personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckai...@floodgap.com -- BOND THEME NOW PLAYING: "Diamonds Are Forever" - -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

AFAIK, some apps that are able to run both under Classic (OS9) and OSX, allow to declare which one you prefer. Maybe the PS7 that Les is trying to use, is set to run under Classic. Get Info (File menu in Finder) on the PS7 icon, you should see in the middle of the Info window an option like "Open in Classic environment": make sure it's off, and try again.

Besides, running an OS9 (Classic) app in "real" OS9 is usually faster than running it inside Classic (Classic is an emulation, albeit a very good one, and any emulation introduce slowdown). -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

I've run it in a number of G4's from a Sawtooth to an MDD and it is still in use in two G4 towers. Never even tried to run it in Classic. No experience with 10.5 but suspect it should work. Did not know about the 7.01 update but will check it out, thanks Kris --glen -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Classic Environment
Hi all, I wish to run Photoshop version 7 on my G4 Powerbook 17" running Os X 10.5.8, however Pshop will not install as the Classic Environment is not present. My G5/1.8 dual proc is running OS x 10.4.11 and I have no problem with PS 7. I understand this is to do with OS X 10.5 no supporting Classic. I have my old OS9 and OS X 10.4 install discs but not OS X 10.5. This is my plan: Clone the Powerbook via CCC to an external drive, re-format and partition it, install OS9 or OS X 10.4 on one partition and OS X 10.5.8 from the clone on the other. Is this feasible/prudent? Also, since the Powerbook HD is quite small, would OS9 be a wiser choice than Tiger? My install discs for OS9 and Tiger are retail versions from my desktop towers, will this be a factor? Many thanks for insight.
