I have an AppleVision Display and just installed Mac OS 8. I had AppleVision Software version 1.5.3 installed before installing Mac OS 8, now I have version 1.5.2. What version should I be using?
DISCUSSION
Mac OS 8.0 installs AppleVision software version 1.5.2.
If you are using a ColorSync 17 (16.1 VIS) or ColorSync 20 (19.02 VIS) Display you will need to install AppleVision Software version 1.5.5 which shipped with the ColorSync Displays on an AppleVision Software CD.
When installing Mac OS 8.1 with your ColorSync display, you should also install the AppleVision Software CD (version 1.5.5) which shipped with the display. If installing an older version, other than 1.5.5, of the AppleVision software you will see AppleVision 750/750AV or AppleVision 850/850AV in the control strip and ColorSync Display in the Monitors and Sounds control panel. This is normal behavior, due to a software change, and will not affect the function of the display.
If you are using an AppleVision 750,850,750AV,or 850AV you will need to install or reinstall the AppleVision Software Version 1.5.3. You can do that by using the CD that shipped with you're display or you can down load it from Apple's Software Update Web Site at
