Text of the page (random words):
ture than powerpc the classic environment is a descendant of rhapsody s blue box virtualization layer which served as a proof of concept previously apple a ux also offered a virtualized mac os environment on top of a unix operating system it uses a mac os 9 system folder and a new world rom file to bridge the differences between the older powerpc macintosh platforms and the xnu kernel environment the classic environment was created as a key element of apple s strategy to replace the classic mac os versions 9 and below with mac os x as the standard operating system os used by macintosh computers by eliminating the need to use the older os directly the classic environment can be loaded at login for faster activation when needed later on command or whenever a mac os application that requires it is launched to reduce the use of system resources when not needed it requires a full version of mac os 9 to be installed on the system and loads an instance of that os in a sandbox environment replacing some low level system calls with equivalent calls to mac os x via updated system files and the classic support system enabler this sandbox is used to launch all classic mac os applications there is only one instance of the classic process running for a given user and only one user per machine may be running classic at a time the classic environment can also be configured to show a window upon startup of the classic environment to simulate a computer booting into mac os 9 if the user chooses to launch the classic environment only when needed launching a classic application first launches the classic environment and then the application launches when a classic application is in the foreground the menu bar at the top of the screen changes to the older style mac os menu bar dialog boxes and other user interface elements retain their traditional appearance the classic environment also provides a way to run classic applications on apple s g5 systems as well as on most g4 based computers sold after january 2003 these machines cannot boot mac os 9 or earlier without the bridging capabilities of the classic environment or other software see sheepshaver in the former case g5 macs cannot run mac os 9 natively due to the lack of g5 processor support on mac os 9 while in the latter case g4 macs released from that point onwards cannot boot into mac os 9 natively because the mac os rom boot files were not updated to support booting into mac os 9 directly from those macs the classic environment s compatibility is usually sufficient for many applications provided the application using it does not require direct access to hardware or engage in full screen drawing however it is not a complete clone of mac os 9 the finder included with mac os x v10 2 and later does not support the reveal object apple events used by some mac os 9 applications causing the reveal in finder functionality for those applications to be lost early releases of mac os x would often fail to draw window frames of classic applications correctly and after the classic environment s windowing was made double buffered in mac os x panther some older applications and games sometimes failed to update the screen properly such as the original macintosh port of doom on the other hand the classic environment also resurrected some older applications that were previously made unusable on the macintosh quadra and power macintosh series this is because mac os x replaced mac os 9 s original virtual memory system with a more standard and less fragile implementation the classic environment s performance is also generally acceptable with a few exceptions most of an application is run directly as powerpc code which would not be possible on intel based macs motorola 68k code is handled by the same motorola 68lc040 emulator that mac os 9 uses some application functions are actually faster in the classic environment than under mac os 9 on equivalent hardware due to performance improvements in the newer operating system s device drivers these applications are largely those that use heavy disk processing and were often quickly ported to mac os x by their developers on the other hand applications that rely on heavy processing and which did not share resources under mac os 9 s co operative multitasking model will be interrupted by other non classic processes under mac os x s preemptive multitasking the greater processing power of most systems that run mac os x compared to systems intended to run mac os 8 or 9 helps to mitigate the performance degradation of the classic environment s virtualization dashboard edit main article dashboard macos dashboard was an application for apple s macos operating systems used as a secondary desktop for hosting mini applications known as widgets these were intended to be simple applications that launched quickly dashboard applications supplied with macos included a stock ticker weather report calculator and notepad users can create or download their own before mac os x 10 7 lion when dashboard is activated the user s desktop is dimmed and widgets appear in the foreground like application windows they could be moved around rearranged deleted and duplicated so that more than one of the same widget is open at the same time possibly with different settings new widgets could be opened via an icon bar on the bottom layer loading a list of available apps similar to the ios homescreen or the macos launchpad dashboard was introduced in mac os x 10 4 tiger 112 113 114 it could be activated as an application from the dock launchpad or spotlight it could also be accessed by a dashboard key 115 alternatively the user can choose to make dashboard open on moving the cursor into a preassigned hot corner or keyboard shortcut starting with mac os x 10 7 lion the dashboard can be configured as a space accessed by swiping four fingers to the right from the desktops either side of it in os x 10 10 yosemite the dashboard is disabled by default as the notification center is now the primary method of displaying widgets dashboard was removed in macos catalina 116 grab edit grab was a built in utility for taking screenshots it supported capturing a marquee selection a whole window or the whole screen as well as timed screenshots the program originated from nextstep and was replaced by the screenshot utility in macos mojave grab saved screenshots in the tiff format it was also possible to save screenshots in pdf format earlier versions of macos or png format later versions idvd edit main article idvd idvd is a discontinued application that could be used to create dvds internet connect edit the internet connect program in mac os x allows the user to activate dial up connections to the internet via an isp or vpn it also provides a simple way to connect to an airport network up to the latest version of mac os x 10 4 the internet connect application provides more general tools than the more detailed network pane in system settings which allows the user to configure and control systemwide network settings however as of mac os x 10 5 internet connect s functions have been incorporated into the network pane of system settings and the application is no longer included use of internet connect is generally not necessary if the macintosh is connected to the internet through an ethernet device to dsl or cable internet service except to manage connections to any subordinate bluetooth equipment isync edit main article isync isync was a tool made to sync ical and address book data to a syncml enabled mobile phone via bluetooth or by using a usb connection it was released on january 2 2003 with technology licensed from fusionone support for many pre october 2007 devices was built in 117 with newer devices being supported via manufacturer and third party isync plugins support for palm os organizers and compatible smartphones was removed with the release of isync 3 1 and mac os x 10 6 snow leopard blackberry os palm os and windows mobile pocket pc devices could not be used with isync but were supported by third party applications before the release of mac os x 10 4 isync also synchronized a user s safari bookmarks with the then usable mac subscription service provided by apple itunes edit main article itunes itunes is a media player media library internet radio broadcaster mobile device management utility and the client app for itunes store it is used to purchase play download and organize digital multimedia on personal computers running the macos and windows operating systems itunes is developed by apple it was announced on january 9 2001 itunes was criticized for having a bloated user experience in 2019 apple decided to split itunes into separate apps as of macos catalina apple music apple podcasts and apple tv finder took over the device management aspect that itunes previously served 118 119 this change would not affect windows or older macos versions 120 network utility edit network utility was an application for macos up to macos catalina that provided a variety of tools that could be used related to computer network information gathering and analysis starting with macos big sur the application is no longer included and was replaced with a message that it has been deprecated 121 122 starting with macos ventura the application is removed from the os network utility showed information about each of your network connections including the mac address of the interface the ip address assigned to it its speed and status a count of data packets sent and received and a count of transmission errors and collisions it also provided a gui to the netstat ping traceroute whois finger and stroke unix programs odbc administrator edit odbc administrator was a 32 bit utility in the mac os x operating system for administering odbc which enables interaction with odbc compliant data sources features included connection pooling trace log creation and odbc driver management among other administration features although apple started including the underlying iodbc libraries in mac os x jaguar 123 and continued to do so through at least macos big sur 124 apple only included their odbc administrator through mac os x leopard and temporarily made it available as a separate download since removed for snow leopard alternatives to apple s 32 bit odbc administrator include the free and open source 32 bit and 64 bit iodbc administrator included with the iodbc sdk which is available for all extant versions of mac os x 10 0 x through 11 2 x 125 printer setup utility edit the printer setup utility was an application that served to allow the user to configure printers physically connected to the computer or connected via a network the utility provided more specific tools than the more user friendly printers pane in system preferences in mac os x 10 5 leopard the printer setup utility was removed and its features placed in the print fax system preferences pane viewing individual printers queues was moved to a printer proxy application remote install mac os x edit remote install mac os x was a remote installer for use with macbook air laptops over the network it could run on a mac or a windows pc with an optical drive a client macbook air lacking an optical drive could then wirelessly connect to the other mac or pc to perform system software installs remote install mac os x was released as part of mac os x 10 5 2 on february 12 2008 support for the mac mini was added in march 2009 allowing the dvd drive to be replaced with a second hard drive with the launch of mac os x lion apple has omitted remote install 126 127 a workaround is to enable target disk mode sherlock edit this section is an excerpt from sherlock software edit sherlock is a now defunct file and web search tool created by apple for the classic mac os and carried through to early versions of mac os x sherlock was introduced in 1998 with mac os 8 5 as an extension of finder s file searching capabilities like its predecessor system 7 5 s revamped find file app adapted by bill monk from his find pro find program 128 sherlock searches for local files and file contents on a mac using the same basic indexing code and search logic found in applesearch sherlock extended the system by enabling the user to search for items on the world wide web through a series of plug ins which employed existing web search engines these plug ins were written as plain text files so that it was a simple task for a user to write a sherlock plug in sherlock was replaced by spotlight and dashboard in 2005 with mac os x 10 4 tiger although apple continued to include it with the default installation since most of the standard plug ins for sherlock provided by apple itself no longer function it was officially retired and removed in the release of mac os x 10 5 leopard in 2007 software update edit in mac os 9 and early versions of mac os x software update was a standalone tool the program was part of the coreservices in os x it could automatically inform users of new updates with new features and bug and security fixes to the operating system applications device drivers and firmware all updates required the user to enter their administrative password and some required a system restart it could be set to check for updates daily weekly monthly or not at all in addition it could download and store the associated pkg file the same type used by installer to be installed at a later date and it maintained a history of installed updates starting with mac os x 10 5 leopard updates that required a reboot logged out the user prior to installation and automatically restarted the computer when complete in earlier versions of os x the updates were installed but critical files were not replaced until the next system startup beginning with os x 10 8 software update became part of the app store application beginning with macos mojave 10 14 it became a part of system preferences x11 edit main article xquartz in mac os x tiger x11 was an optional install included on the install dvd mac os x
