SheepShaver started on BeOS and the PowerPC-based BeBox as a commercial product and pun on the Amiga 68K Mac emulator ShapeShifter it only runs the classic Mac OS, and only then up to 9.0.4 (later versions require an MMU, which SheepShaver doesn't implement).

This is relevant because of the current state of Mac emulation: in general, the classic Mac OS is better supported than Mac OS X.

Even my G5 only ever ran Mac OS X Tiger so that I still could run Classic applications (on top of the fact I preferred Tiger's interface to Leopard). With the exception of the G5 all of these systems natively ran the classic Mac OS, so I had a large investment in classic Mac software. I upgraded from there to (briefly) a used Power Mac 7200, then traded it in for a used Power Mac 7300, then pimped that out, then a Power Mac G4 MDD, the first computer I personally bought new, and then the G5. I first touched a Mac in 1987 (it was my buddy's father's Mac Plus, and we spent hours messing around in HyperCard and System 6), though the first Mac I personally owned was a second-hand Macintosh IIsi. I certainly was, even granting it made commercial sense at the time, and I ended up using a Power Mac G5 Quad for 13 years as a daily driver before I got the Raptor Talos II I use now. I've always maintained (possibly by personal experience) that one of the natural future markets for OpenPOWER is one of the architecture's past markets: Power Mac users, particularly those who were irked by the Intel transition.

The rest of this post concerns the resolution of these two issues.

The virtual screen size was limited to 1024×768 (I wanted 1280×1024) and the maximum disk image size you could use was limited to just 1.2 GB (a wee bit small for a well-stocked Mac OS 9 system in my opinion – I wanted something much larger). HOWEVER, I wasn’t entirely pleased with the configuration of Chubby Bunny. I was delighted to learn all of this, and wanted to pass it along to you, the readers of this blog.

That SHOULD be the end of this post – mission accomplished! I now know what the “Appleworks problem” is AND how to solve it, and as an added bonus, I have discovered how to run Mac OS 9 Classic on my modern iMac – Classic on Intel. There are only a small number of preconfigured applications in the Mac OS 9 instance you get this way, and oddly, given how this whole thing started, Appleworks is NOT one of them(!), but you can install more, just as you can with a real Mac OS 9 installation.

Here is a screen shot of Chubby Bunny running Mac OS 9.0.4 (Mac OS 9.0.4 is the highest version of Mac OS 9 supported by Sheepshaver) on my Mac OS X Mavericks 3.4 GHz 27” iMac (click the image to get the full size screenshot). That’s pretty much it! Launch Classic.app and Mac OS 9 pops up in all its glory. Installing Chubby Bunny is as simple as dropping its executable into your Applications folder (the application is called Classic.app, and it sports the “classic” Classic.app icon – a nice touch) and placing one of the three included disk images into your /Users/Shared folder. There are a LOT of curiously named applications in this post! 🙂 “Chubby Bunny” is a pre-configured version of Sheepshaver, with all of the setup already done. This is where another curiously named package came to the rescue. I won’t comment on the effort required to install and set up Basilisk II – I found the idea of an emulated PowerPC Mac far more attractive than the idea of an emulated 68K Mac. I looked into installing and setting up Sheepshaver on my Intel iMac and quickly found that the number of steps involved, and the amount of work involved in each step, was daunting to say the least. Sheepshaver emulates a PowerPC Macintosh Basilisk II emulates a 68K Macintosh. Sheepshaver is followed closely by the equally oddly named Basilisk II. The curiously named Sheepshaver application is the best supported Mac emulator currently out there. Installing and setting up either of the two major Mac OS emulators presently available is a bit of a chore. Sounds simple, right? Well, it turns out to be anything but simple. If you have an older Appleworks based document that you need to regain access to, how do you do this if you don’t have an older Mac to facilitate that access? The answer? Run a Mac OS 9 emulator on your modern Mac, install Appleworks into the emulator and then use it to recover full access to the document of interest. The “Appleworks problem” turned out to be fairly easily stated. What WAS “the Appleworks problem” and how DO you solve it? Following links in the comment, I stumbled upon an article about solutions to the “Appleworks problem”.

Version 2.4 20180709 for 32-bit OSX 10.4-10.Recently, a reader of this blog submitted a comment regarding an earlier post.

If you use an older keycodes file, you will also need to replace that file with the new one: įor a new setup, also download the SheepShaver folder.įor more information see the revised setup manual If you have an existing SheepShaver setup, you can simply replace the application with the new application. SheepShaver requires users to supply a ROM image and a copy of Mac OS. SheepShaver is considered a good replacement for the Classic Environment which is not available in the most recent versions of Mac OS X.

Builds of SheepShaver are available for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. Using SheepShaver (along with the appropriate ROM image) it is possible to emulate a PowerPC Macintosh computer capable of running Mac OS 7.5.2 through 9.0.4. SheepShaver is an open source PowerPC Apple Macintosh emulator.
