Hi everyone. A Techtool Pro question. I am using OS X. 3.9 on a 1.6GHz G5, 768 Mb SDRAM and using TT Pro v4.

I installed as per disk instructions to set up the eDrive on my HD, only it does not appear, only if and when I restart does it appear on the desktop momentarily, then vanishes. In System Prefs - Startup Disk, I cannot locate TT Pro to
boot from?

Is this normal, or a conflict maybe with the versions of hardware/software?

This is normal.

Question; how do I locate the installed eDrive to startup in TT Pro?

When TechTool Pro 4 is properly installed on the active boot volume, the eDrive mounts for a moment and then is automatically unmounted, to protect it from tampering. Because it is not a mounted volume, it does not appear in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.

To restart from the eDrive, use the eDrive Restart button in the TechTool Pro 4 application, or restart and hold down the Option key to bring up the Startup Manager.
