Compatibility
Architecture: 68k PPC

PPC Mac OS 8.5+ for the USB & FireWire drivers. The Utilities and Toast will run on much earlier systems including 68040 Macs for Toast and Silverlining etc.

If installing Toast 4 on Mac OS 7.6.1 or earlier, it installs the Appearance Manager software onto the host Mac. In the process, it does not disable "WindowShade" and "Color" Control Panels, these need to be disabled manually, else may conflict with the Appearance software.

If extracted under a Classic Mac OS, the ".iso" image is double-click mountable, with the Virtual CD/DVD Utility installed.

Hi Franky, unfortunately I know very little about GraphicConverter, other than there were lots of updates throughout it's life and it was usually included with MacFormat CD's and other magazine CD's. I guess that if there are ones that you were familiar with as being stable releases, they could all go up.

YW.

In this post, I have listed all the GraphicConverter versions I own recently. Which ones would you me to upload on concerned pages ? Of course, I will create a page for version 1. This software is certainly the one not difficult to find. At least, for US versions. For other languages, it's another story for sure. But I know that French versions were distributed regularly with compilation magazines, just like SVMMac. Each month, a new version, if it was available...

Thanks. Yes It seems as tho' LaCie was producing a new CD with every product they distributed.

Oh well. More to come

Hi Mike & thanks,

Finally, there is also Silverlining 6.2.1 (only) in the other page with the same title (without the year). But not other software versions (except probably for Toast). I believe LaCie has released a lot of discs with so different versions...
