Mac OS 9.2.2 on Edward Mendelson pre-packaged SheepShaver?

I'm using Edward Mendelson's excellent prepackaged SheepShaver.

On it, can I run Mac OS 9.2.2? If so, could you help me with instructions?

I know lots about Mac OS 9 and macos X (up to Yosemite), but very little about SheepShaver.

Thanks.

Thanks, emendelson, I downloaded and re-installed the Mac OS 9 application, and that fixed my problems.

Re: Unable to copy files to host: File some object wasn't f

Thanks, emendelson, I'll download the Mac OS 9 application and re-install.

What do I need to do to uninstall it first? I'd delete "Desktop Folder" and "SendToMacOS9" from Documents. Anything else?

Re: Frequent "~MacOS9BackgroundScript" aborts, error type 2

I have opened a new topic for this question in viewforum.php?f=33

I don't know how to close this question in this forum. Any advice?

In response to emendelson's suggestions:

1. My SendToMacOS9 folder is empty.
2. I downloaded the application less than a month ago (on March 19).

I'm running Edward Mendelson's excellent pre-packaged SheepShaver, from URL http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/macos9osx.html. My host is a late 2013 iMac (2.7 GHz Intel Core i5), running Yosemite 10.10.5. When I first installed this emulator, I could copy files from Mac OS 9 to the Yosemite host by drop...

You know that Office365 can import Outlook Express mail archives and is virtually identical in functionality, right?
No, didn't know that. Thanks a million! You saved me hours of tedious work.

Re: Access Internet in Mac OS 9, through host's ethernet por

Thanks a bunch! Classilla works for me. It didn't make any difference when added my ISP's domain-name search address. The other Google DNS server is 8.8.4.4. I've never had any problem with either of them on any Mac platform, but I believe you that you did. My old PowerMac G4 is getting old, tired a...

Re: Access Internet in Mac OS 9, through host's ethernet por

Wow, that's great! Simple, and it works. But it only works when I connect (via iCab) to Google.com. For any other domain iCab displays "Network error #163495582". This happens even when I type in the IP address directly (I tried those for Apple.com, Wikipedia.org and a few others). What mi...

Access Internet in Mac OS 9, through host's ethernet port?

How do I access the Internet from within my emulated Mac OS 9, through my host's ethernet port?
