  • Gestalt Manager 1
    CHAPTER 1 Gestalt Manager 1 This chapter describes how you can use the Gestalt Manager and other system software facilities to investigate the operating environment. You need to know about the 1 operating environment if your application takes advantage of hardware (such as a Gestalt Manager floating-point unit) or software (such as Color QuickDraw) that is not available on all Macintosh computers. You can also use the Gestalt Manager to inform the Operating System that your software is present and to find out about other software registered with the Gestalt Manager. The Gestalt Manager is available in system software versions 6.0.4 and later. The MPW software development system and some other development environments supply code that allows you to use the Gestalt Manager on earlier system software versions; check the documentation provided with your development system. In system software versions earlier than 6.0.4, you can retrieve a limited description of the operating environment with the SysEnvirons function, also described in this chapter. You need to read this chapter if you take advantage of specific hardware or software features that may not be present on all versions of the Macintosh, or if you wish to inform other software that your software is present in the operating environment. This chapter describes how the Gestalt Manager works and then explains how you can ■ determine whether the Gestalt Manager is available ■ call the Gestalt function to investigate the operating environment ■ make information about your own hardware or software available to other applications ■ retrieve a limited description of the operating environment even if the Gestalt Manager is not available About the Gestalt Manager 1 The Macintosh family of computers includes models that use a number of different processors, some accompanied by a floating-point unit (FPU) or memory management unit (MMU).

  • From 128K to Quadra: Model by Model
    Chapter 12 From 128K to Quadra: Model by Model IN THIS CHAPTER: I What the specs mean I The specs for every Mac model ever made I Secrets of the pre-PowerPC Mac models I Just how much your Mac has devalued Yes, we’ve already been told that we’re nuts to attempt the next two chapters of this book. Since 1984, Apple has created more than 140 different Mac models — including 35 different PowerBooks and 53 different Performas! Each year, Apple piles on another dozen or so new models. By the time you finish reading this page, another Performa model probably will have been born. So, writing a couple of chapters that are supposed to describe every model is an exercise in futility. But we’re going to attempt it anyway, taking the models one by one and tracking their speeds, specs, and life cycles. This chapter will cover all the Apple Macs — both desktop and portable models — from the birth of the original Macintosh 128K to the release of the PowerBook 190, the last Mac ever made that was based on Motorola’s 68000-series processor chip. When you’re finished reading this chapter, you will be one of the few people on Earth who actually knows the difference between a Performa 550, 560, 575, 577, 578, 580, and 588. 375 376 Part II: Secrets of the Machine Chapter 13 will cover every Power Mac — or, more accurately, every PowerPC-based machine (those with four-digit model numbers) — from the first ones released in 1994 to the models released just minutes before this book was printed.

  • 8 News and Help
    News and Help The plan is to collate any news in this document. I’ll then archive the content to another document so we can still access it but we only need to access the same document for all the new news. August 2020 Apple Updates, Improvements and Company News macOS Catalina 10.15.6 includes improvements to Apple News, a new option to optimise video streaming on HDR-compatible Mac notebooks for improved battery life, improvements to USB mouse and trackpad handling, and a fix for an issue that could cause the software update process to change the computer's name. 10.15.6 and the corresponding security updates for Mojave and High Sierra address a variety of serious vulnerabilities. Safari 13.1.2 is part of Catalina 10.15.6 and is also available for Mojave and High Sierra. It addresses 11 security issues, some of which can be remotely exploited to execute arbitrary code. iOS 13.6 brings the much-heralded digital car keys feature (initially for very recently made BMWs, and including key sharing via Messages and a 'power reserve' allowing keys to be used up to five hours after the phone's battery runs out). iOS 13.6 and iPadOS 13.6 include Apple News improvements (including audio news), a 'symptoms' category in the Health app, and various changes and fixes relating to software updates, iCloud Drive, Wi-Fi calling, and other features. The updates also address a total of 29 issues that could be variously exploited to execute arbitrary code, view sensitive information, and allow cross-site scripting, among others.

  • 176: Macintosh Memory Configurations
    Macintosh Technical Notes ® Developer Technical Support #176: Macintosh Memory Configurations Revised by: Jack Robson April 1992 Prior Revisions: Mark Baumwell, Craig Prouse, and Dennis Hescox Written by: Cameron Birse November 1987 This Technical Note describes the different possible memory configurations of all models of the Macintosh family that use Single In-line Memory Modules (SIMMs) as well as the non-SIMM memory upgrade options of the Macintosh Portable and Macintosh Classic. (Special thanks to Brian Howard for the Macintosh Plus and original SE drawings, and for the inspiration for the other drawings.) This Note also describes the obstacles to using four megabit (Mbit) DRAM SIMMs in Apple Macintosh products to date. Changes since November 1991: Corrected error on the RAM configuration chart (page 2); additional information added to Quadra 900 section (page 15). Developer Technical Support receives numerous questions about the many different possible configurations of RAM on the different Macintosh models, so we’ll attempt to answer these questions in this Technical Note, as well as to provide a showcase for some outstanding Macintosh Plus and SE artwork by Apple engineer Brian Howard. Interested readers should refer to the Guide to the Macintosh Family Hardware, Second Edition, which contains much more detail on the memory configurations and specifications for all Macintosh models released to date. For information on the newer Macintosh models not mentioned in the Guide to the Macintosh Family Hardware, please refer to the companion developer notes for those particular products. #176: Macintosh Memory Configurations 1 of 22 Developer Technical Support April 1992 RAM Configuration Chart Caveat: The upper physical RAM totals expressed here assume the use and compatibility of 4 and 16 MB SIMMs.
