  1. The 'classic' Mac OS is the original Macintosh operating system that was introduced in 1984 alongside the first Macintosh and remained in primary use on Macs until the introduction of Mac OS X in 2001. Apple released the original Macintosh on January 24, 1984; its early system software was partially based on the Lisa OS and the Xerox PARC Alto computer, which former Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
  2. However, this will also prevent copying text from any X11 application to Mac OS X ones. It will not prevent copying text from OS X to X11. When you just want to make a copy of an object within Inkscape, you can also use Edit menu Duplicate (Ctrl-D) rather than Edit menu Copy/Paste (Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V).
  3. PROTOTYPE 2's NYZ open-world sandbox is broken up into three completely distinct zones. From the heavily militarized 'Green Zone', to the overcrowded refugee shanty town camps of the quarantined 'Yellow Zone', all the way to the war-ravaged nightmare known as the 'Red Zone' – this is a city unlike anything gamer's have.

The recent upswing in 3D printing applications is due to the fact it is a simple technology that can be utilized in a variety of fields.

Tips on 10.4 Tiger, 10.5 Leopard, 10.6 Snow Leopard, 10.7 Lion, 10.8 Mountain Lion,10.9 Mavericks,10.10 Yosemite,10.11 El Capitanand 10.12 Sierra-11.0 Big Sur.


This is part of a series of tips of updating to Mac OS X 10.2 through Mac OS 11.0 Client. Server versions of Mac OS X are better handled by asking questions in the Server forum. 10.2 & 10.3 are not mentioned above since they can't be upgraded to 10.6 or later. Some 10.8 prebundled Macs can be upgraded to 10.12 and then to Catalina.

Only the MacBook Air 6,1 (as the system profiler reports the Machine ID) shipped with 10.8.4 and is compatible with Big Sur. All other Mac shipped with Mavericks or Yosemite that are Big Sur compatible.


Before updating to 10.7 or later from 10.6.8 or earlier, please read this tip:


Note, some downloads from Apple do not work in Safari for earlier Mac OSes, see this tip if you find you can't download them anymore, to find a browser that will work.


10.9, and 10.10 are no longer available, unless it was preinstalled on your Mac or you purchased it prior on the Apple Store. Some people whom no longer have need for either operating system may find they can transfer their license to someone else who does need it and have the compatibility needs of the links above. Note, if your Mac came with 10.6.8 or earlier installed and is compatible with 10.8, you can install 10.6.8 and then 10.11. Unfortunately you have to request the App Store make 10.11 available if you require it, and are not compatible with 10.12 or 10.13. 10.7.5 and higher users can upgrade to 10.12. 10.8.4 released Macbook Airs are the oldest Macs that can upgrade to Big Sur Mac OS 11.0.


For info on what 10.13 is compatible with, visit this tip:



See this tip to find your Mac model's age:


Backing up your data at least twice is essential. A clone backup, explained in the 'backing up' link in the prior sentence, prior to upgrading to Lion will ensure you are able to backstep to Lion in event you don't have a USB Flash drive copy of Lion.


Apple announced Mountain Lion's availability, July 25, 2012.


iOS 9.2 and iOS 9.2.1 require Mac OS X 10.8 and iTunes 12.3 (newer versions of iOS require newer Mac OS X for syncing, and are covered in that link) for syncing on the Macintosh side.


Apple has released 10.8.1,10.8.2 , the supplemental update to 10.8.2, 10.8.3, 10.8.4, 10.8.5, Security Update 2014-003 (Mountain Lion) and 10.9 (Mavericks) as updates to Mountain Lion.


For the latest security updates see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1222

and searching for the newer one together with the text

support.apple.com DL


will get newer download links.


Mavericks is mentioned on this same line, as the Apple hardware requirements are the same, though the compatibility for Mavericks for third party devices may differ. 10.8 is now (as of January 10, 2014) available directly from the http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6377/os-x-mountain-lion link in the United States (the /us/ in the link may be changed for the standard standard two letter country code matching the store link), although realize that 10.9 is free and has the same Apple hardware requirements as 10.8, though some software may only run on 10.8. If you have difficulty downloading 10.8, go the App Store support. The App Store support may be able to help you restore 10.8 to its factory condition and make it available on internet restore, which happens with a command-R boot. For Macs newer than 10.8's release of July 25, 2012 (Mac Minis older than October 23, 2012 would not fall under this, since their hardware was not modified until that date), but older than 10.9's release of October 22, 2013, contacting AppleCare http://www.apple.com/contact/phone_contacts.html may be needed to add it to internet restore. Macs that were prebundled with 10.6.8 or earlier can't use the command-R boot without a firmware update:


Some issues exist with WiFi on 10.8.5 for some machines. At this point the reason is unknown, and sometimes it takes connecting to ethernet

and then back to WiFi to fix. Note, if your machine is 4 years or older, be sure to have your PRAM battery checked. This battery is separate from the battery that lets you work off the power lines. If it is under 4 years old, frequently such issues can be resolved with the PRAM being reset. Be sure

to report to Apple Store, or http://www.apple.com/feedback/ any issues you have. If you want to go through a formal way, submit a bug reportafter signing for

an online developer account.


Front row is no longer present with Lion or Mountain Lion. However, some have found a way to get it to work with both.


If you have issues with the download after reading the rest of this tip, please contact the Mac App Store form or e-mail, to ensure you don't get double billed

when you redownload Mountain Lion. Also you will probably have to contact them if you can't find the link on the store when going to this U.S. store download link (adjust the link according to your country when you enter the store website). It is 4.05 GB which works out to 4147.2 MB, which at 7Mbps or .875 MBps would take 1 hour 19 minutes. At 1.5 Mbps that would take 6 hours and 8 minutes. At 768 kbps that would take 12 hours and 16 minutes. And that's assuming the traffic at Apple trying to download it isn't overwhelming the servers, and you have a dedicated connection at those speeds. After the download completes, the installer takes 3 minutes before rebooting itself, and 33 minutes after rebooting to complete the installation on an iMac 11,2. Times may vary by speed of the hard drive, connected peripherals (preferably none), available disc space, and available RAM. Unlike Lion, before the installer begins, it leaves behind a distinct 4.3 GB installer file you can drag to any backup you need before beginning with the 36+ minute installation process.


http://roaringapps.com/apps?platform=osxoffers a third party table for software compatibility. Ignore the El Capitan compatibility, as that has not been released yet. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6271 should be

read before updating from 10.6.8 or earlier. RAW photo support for 10.7 is different from 10.8, but here is the 10.8 support link:


Mountain Lion, Mac OS X 10.8 has many of the same requirements as Lion, except those listed below:


Brother has a table that lists which Faxes work with 10.8.

Canon has released new Fax software for 10.8 and some of their printers.

Epson has a table that includes some printers as listed as Fax compatible.

HP website says the HP Fax driver ships with some of their printers, but is not specific as to which ones.

The USR 5637 modem has plug and play FAX compatibility with Mac OS X 10.4 to 10.8. FAX compatibility is one of the options available through the Print dialog together with the PDF save options in Mac OS X.

Apple has a listing of printer and scanner drivers for 10.6 through 10.9:

Ready



Any not listed, will have to come from the vendor directly.


Apple provides updates to the printers on that link through these links by vendor:


HP, Ricoh, Canon, Epson, Brother,Lexmark, Samsung, and Fuji/Xerox



The major third party Fax software vendors for Fax machines stopped supporting Mac OS X as of 10.8 on some, and 10.7 on others.

4-Sight-Fax supported 10.7, but not 10.8.

Now discontinued, Smileyourmac's PageSender stopped supporting Mac OS X after 10.6.8.


Apple has the minimum system requirements for Mountain Lion, which are the same for Mavericks, Yosemite, and El Capitan, based on their annual time schedule of model releases on http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/

Below are others means of identifying the compatibility if you completely read this tip. Vinnie cancer mac os.


At this point several places on the Net already are claiming Mountain Lion compatibility for certain software or hardware that is non-Apple.

Any announcements of Mountain Lion compatibility prior to July 25, 2012 should be treated with skepticism, and tested on a backed up system

prior to updating those entries on the Net and getting Mountain Lion either from an authorized reseller or Apple. Note: at the point of writing this

tip, no USB Flash drive is available for Mountain Lion, and it can only be gotten from Apple Mac App Store. Stay tuned!



Macs sold with different hardware in the same model name on or after July 25, 2012, may not be able to run Lion, or earlier versions of Mac OS X,

though are still able to run Windows. An older Mac may be needed to run software not yet tested with Mountain Lion. See below for resources on telling a Mac's age. Solutions for running Snow Leopardmay still work.


Someone who does not have the serial number of their machine due to a logicboard replacement,

or other is desiring to purchase an older machine and wanting to know about Mountain Lion's compatibility,

will benefit by the following. The model identifier, also known as Machine ID, can be found in Apple menu -> About This Mac -> System Information or More info. The following Macs with 10.6.8 or later, 2GB of RAM, and 8 GB of hard space (presumably an additional 15% of free hard disk space will be beneficial as has always arbitrarily been found in the past) are able to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.8:


iMac 7,1 and later

MacBook 5,1 and later

MacBook Pro 3,1 and later

MacBook Air 2,1 and later

Mac Mini 3,1 and later.

Mac Pro 1,x and 2,x have two solutions in link 1 and link 2. 3,1 and later have built-in official support.


The link to get older Mac Pros to run 10.8 has been objected to by some as doing something not allowed. It does stretch the limits of

what is possible even under the license agreement, but as long as you keep the one copy of 10.8 you buy and do not distribute it to anyone else,

you have satisfied the requirements of the license agreement. Mind you the cost may be more than Mac OS X Server 10.8 or 10.7 depending on the compatibility of software and how many licenses you need to get. Read the rest of the tip to determine if your software at least is ready for 10.8.


Airdrop is compatible on 10.8 systems of the following model identifier:


MacBook Pro 5,1 and later

MacBook Air 3,1 and later

MacBook 5,1 and later

iMac 9,1 and later

Mac Mini 4,1 and later

Mac Pro 4,1 and later


Airplay mirroring is compatible on 10.8 systems of the following model identifier:


Mac Mini 5,1

MacBook Air 4,1

MacBook Pro 8,1

iMac 12,1

..Mac Pro..noticeably absent in spite of June 11, 2012's new release. If someone getting a new Mac Pro would care to comment, please feel free to.

A similar feature is available to older Macs through third party software and hardware listed on this tip.



Powernap is compatible just with these Macs:


MacBook Air 3,1

MacBook Pro 10,1 and later.


Macs whose minimum Mac OS X is 10.8 (may be able to run older versions with this hint):


MacBook Pro 10,2 or later, 10,1 Retina 2.4 Ghz, ME665LL/A EMC 2673, Retina 2.8 Ghz

Mac Mini 6,1 or later.

iMac 13,1 or later


As of 4/22/2013, no MacBook Air, nor Mac Pro could only run Mac OS X 10.8.


A very good third party resource for identifying older Macs is on EveryMac.


Tips present for Lion's release are fairly good for Mountain Lion as far as is known as of the date of this tip's posting.

Apple has a history of making Macs only compatible with the operating system available at the time of their refresh date.


10.14 Mojave is available to certain MacBook Air, Mac mini, iMac, Mac Pros and MacBook Pros which shipped with 10.8 after upgrading to 10.12 from 10.8. Note: some Mac Pros (not MacBook Pro) which shipped with 10.6, may be updated to 10.6.8 then 10.11 then to 10.14. Some MacBook Pros shipped with 10.7 that can be upgraded to Mojave after upgrading to 10.12.

Macbooks without Air or Pro next to the name need to have shipped with 10.10 or later and updated to 10.11 before installing Mojave.

Notes


Unused Graphics
A whole bunch of graphics that ended up unused.
Unused Dialogue
Lots of dialogue that ended up on the cutting room floor, so to speak.
Unused Music
Many extended pieces of music, and even a few unused tracks.
Unused Text
All sorts of text you'd never normally see.
Unused Scripts
Some unused or partially unused scripts present in the game.

Debug Mode

After booting up the game, enter swordfish on the keyboard. Then, press Ctrl and D together. Alternatively, some of these work in ScummVM by adding -d0 to the startup parameters. At any time during gameplay, press one of the following keys/key combinations:

Key(s)Action
Ctrl + EExamine/Change a SCUMM variable. First specify the variable, then the value.
Ctrl + FFast mode.
Ctrl + GGo to a room. First specify the room, then the X Position.
Ctrl + OPick up an object. First specify the object number, then the room.
Ctrl + LEnter in a Boot Parameter. (a list of valid Boot Parameters can be found here)
Shift + S or F3Stop music.
Shift + RRestarts music.
Shift + BGive the textbook and disappearing ink items to the current character.
Shift + CActivate Laverne's tentacle costume (doesn't fully take effect until next time you change room).
AltHold for fast mode.
DAmbience debugging on/off. (if running through ScummVM the output of this can be seen in the console)
RFaces the current character to the left or the right (alternates).
BFaces the current character forwards.
FFaces the current character backwards.
IIgnore boxes. This command lets you walk anywhere on the screen, draws you in front of everything and stops your character from changing scale. This can't be disabled by pressing it again, but some in-game actions will disable it for you (such as going up/down a chimney)
MDisplays 'Live Midi On :-)' or 'Live Midi Off :-(' (alternates). (if running through ScummVM, the program crashes)
7Cycles through the current character's speech color. (forwards)
8Cycles through the current character's speech color. (backwards)
0Display every room, in sequence, and pan from far left to far right. Press Esc to skip to the next room. It can't be interrupted once it's started and crashes in certain rooms if they haven't already been visited. It automatically stops just before room 60 (which is a dummy room which stores the Player's Inventory).
F1Should print either 'Molasses machine.', 'Street legal machine.' or 'Trans-warp drive machine.' to the screen, but it doesn't work because F1 is already bound to open the game menu* (if running through ScummVM, it works)

*Opening tentacle.001 in a hex editor and changing the value at 0x85B841 from 52 to 54 re-binds the key to F3, which will let it work without having to use ScummVM

F9Plays the current character's low pickup animation.
F10Plays the current character's mid pickup animation.
F11Plays the current character's high pickup animation.

Unused Inventory Item

Human Chart

The Human Chart seen on the wall in Doctor Tentacle's Office could originally be picked up, as seen in some prerelease material. You can load into a state where Laverne has the Human Chart in her inventory by using Boot Parameter 333 (see Debug Mode). It cannot be flushed to other characters and no longer has an icon. It has the exact same dialogue as it does when it's attached to the wall when the player interacts with it.

Unused Story

Laverne Doesn't Get Stuck In The Tree

As mentioned in prerelease material, Laverne would originally have become playable earlier on, possibly at the same time as Hoagie. Chopping down the cherry tree would still have freed the Chron-O-John from the tree, but Laverne wouldn't be in the tree at this time.

Unused Dialogue

If you regain control of Laverne before you cut the tree down in the past (this is possible using Boot Parameters to pick up the Battery Plans out of sequence, see Debug Mode), Laverne has some unique dialogue for interacting with the Chron-O-John while it's in this state.

OffsetCharacterSubtitleDialogue
0x0D6CC22DLaverneThe Chron-O-John's stuck in this stupid tree.
0x0D7534EDLaverneIt's too high. I can't reach it.
0x0D6DED2FLaverneIt's WAY too high for me to reach.

Unused Text

While your game is in this state you can see that the tree was originally meant to have the name 'four-hundred-year-old kumquat tree'. In the final game this goes unseen as removing the tree from existence is what causes Laverne to become a playable character in the first place.

In this same state you can see some unused text on the Chron-O-John: It's capitalized as 'chron-o-john' here, but capitalized as 'Chron-O-John' in every other instance.

Unused Animation

Laverne also has an unused alternative animation for falling out of her Chron-O-John, where she plummets straight into the ground rather than getting stuck on a tree branch.

The used animations are shown with the unused one here, for comparison's sake.

AnimationDescription
Laverne falls out of the Chron-O-John and gets stuck in tree (used)
Laverne falls out of the tree into the ground (used)
Laverne falls out of the Chron-O-John straight into the ground (unused)

Easter Eggs

There are some easter eggs that don't appear to be documented anywhere else.

VideoDescription
Whenever you Push or Pull the Portrait of 'the Late Max Attucks' (an easter egg in and of itself), there is a 1 in 100 chance Hoagie will laugh after he says the line 'He's hung well the way he is.'
Press the Bell in the Lobby 100 times to hear Weird Ed scream (this easter egg has been turned into an Achievement in the Remastered version of the game).
Whenever you Push, Pull or Pick Up the Posts in the Seventies Room, there is a 1 in 100 chance Laverne will say 'No, that was a different game.' instead of the usual line. (The reference here is to LucasArts' previous adventure game Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, where a metal post and the red cordon attached to it are both inventory items.)

Credits

Ready All Row - Prototype Mac Os X

This text-only credit screen exists in the Mac resource fork, but an illustrated one using the game's fonts and color scheme is used instead. Two changes were made to the above roster:

Ready All Row - Prototype Mac Os Catalina

  • The credit for 'Carol, Sunny & Rich' was expanded to 'Sunny, Carol and Rich at The Lab'.
  • John Drake was added to the testers, who are listed alphabetically by first name.

Version Differences

Floppy Disk Version

In the floppy disk version, the speech and subtitles style dialogue is only present up until the moment the first Chron-O-John cutscene is over. The rest of the game is subtitles only. The dialogue that is present is much more heavily compressed. Here's an example from one of the first cutscenes:

Floppy (8333 Hz)CD (22222 Hz)

This version of the game also includes copy protection, whick kicks in during the cutscene where Bernard picks up the Battery Plans. When Dr. Fred looks at the Plans, it cuts to the Super Battery Plans screen and you have to adjust the oil/vinegar levels and add/remove croutons to match the numbers shown in the manual. This is still technically present (and even fully voiced!) in the CD version and can be accessed in ScummVM by running Script 203 while looking at the Battery Plans (Room 65).

This version identifies itself as 'Day of the Tentacle Version 1.5' when you press Ctrl-V. The CD version identifies itself as 'Day of the Tentacle Version CD 1.6'.

Macintosh Version

In the Macintosh version, Maniac Mansion is accessed by using Weird Ed's Computer five times in a row, instead of once.

Ready All Row - Prototype Mac Os 8

Programmer Aaron Giles explains, 'Since Maniac Mansion had never been ported to the Mac before, and since we were on a fairly tight schedule for Day of the Tentacle and wanted to concentrate our testing on the primary game, we compromised by still including it, but making it a bit more of an easter egg than it was in the DOS version.'
