Install Snow Leopard into a virtualization program such as Parallels 8. Find another modern day (Intel) application that will open their PPC software data files, modify them and then save the modified data files for future use, if such modern day apps exist orДЈ.

Update their PPC software to an Intel version, if the software publisher makes such a version available Дў. Hence those platforms will not run PPC software.ДЇor purchasers of new Macs that run Mountain Lion, PPC software owners only have three options:ДЎ. This technology continued with Leopard and was optionally available in Snow Leopard.ДЄpple license to include Rosetta expired with their release of Lion and now Mountain Lion. It transparently allowed the PPC software to continue to run on Intel Macs.

In a brilliant move that allowed all of their current user base to continue to utilize their PPC software on the newer Intel Macs, Apple licensed technology which Apple included in Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.x for Intel which they named Rosetta. PowerPC software (PPC) was written to work on the PowerPC CPU platform that Apple utilized in their Macs from the mid-1990's through 2006, when they moved to the Intel CPU architecture. Better stick with the forums, their agendas are way more pure. Next time, if there is ever a next time, I have to go to this Apple store, I'll wait to talk to the young woman, good experience there. Just because a listener has never heard of a particular idea, doesn't mean the teller is ignorant. Perhaps when I get my Mac Mini up and working with parallel and SLS, I will take it down to the store and show this crazy lady's' SLS's emulator. From the Apple web site, it would have cost me $300 for 16GB. I showed her the difference between buying apple vs non-apple (had it written down), but since the price for the non-apple was $106 and they wanted $125 which included instalation, and was the Ram was guaranteed for live (my life I hope), I took the deal. Surprisingly, I was going to buy 16GB of ram from a different, non-apple source when this young lady, who was going to check me out, told me that for $125 I could get a non-apple ram from them installed. You're too funny! You made my DAY! Will definitely call tomorrow. Thanks dalstott, I will copy your advice for future education. SheepSaver has been around for a while, and since I mostly find 2009 info, I was wondering if anyone had used the 2013 version.

I'd like to know I can upgrade his Mac as time goes buy so he can keep using the programs that he knows so well. But, eventually, Snow Leopard will go by way of Tiger, never to be supported again, not even the FireFox browser. I got Eudora to work and transferred all his mail boxes via Target Disk Mode and a large amount of his addresses, it works really good, as does AppleWorks, Toast Titanum 7, even worked for Stickies once I found the right file on G4 to transfer. I have just taken care of my husbands newly acquired Mac Min late 2010, running Snow Leopard. I may well buy a KVM switch which also allows dual monitors, and just switch back and forth between my macs.

I have, I think, most of my old installation Rom CDs, even Prefoma (early 1990s). My husband is on a G4 which will allow OS9 to boot, which is already loaded with mentioned programs. Well, I'm on a G5 which doesn't boot into Classic, but I can use most of the programs. Lion:ДЄpple is now selling Snow Leopard Server for $19.99 + sales tax & shipping costs at 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753) - Apple Part Number: MC588Z/A (telephone orders only). With the newer Intel Macs, you have to run a Classic emulator such as SheepShaver, which requires you to extract the Mac ROMs from your older Classic Mac and then install Mac OS 9.ДЄ related program is Chubby Bunny, which comes bundled with all of that included (google the term 'Classic-On-Intel v 4.0.1 chubby bunny').ДЄLSO: FYI: Appleworks and Eudora running in Snow Leopard Server installed into Parallels 8 for use in Lion and Mt. Here is a post I recently assembled for another similar question: The Classic game Risk II running in Sheepshaver on my Lion Mac Mini:
