TOPIC
This article describes how to install and use older Apple Language Kits with Mac OS 9.
DISCUSSION Mac OS 9 includes Language Kit functionality that was previously sold separately for Mac OS 8.6 and earlier. Doing an Easy Install of Mac OS 9 onto an existing System Folder does not automatically update any Language Kits that are installed. If you upgrade an existing Mac OS System Folder to Mac OS 9 where a previous Language Kit had been installed, you must also upgrade your Language Kits for full compatibility with Mac OS 9. Running the Mac OS 9 Installer, and selecting a Customized Installation of the appropriate Language Kit, based on what you had previously installed can do this. You can also select additional Language Kits to install. This will ensure that you have the latest and most compatible components. If you already have Mac OS 9 installed, you can do a custom install of the Language Kits you want, using the Mac OS 9 installer. Apple recommends that you do not install any of Apple's previous Language Kits. If you are using Mac OS 9 and have installed one or more of the previous Apple Language Kits, please custom re-install the appropriate Language Kits from within the Mac OS 9 installer as mentioned above. Additional fonts and utilities for certain Language Kits can be found on the Mac OS 9 CD, in the CD Extras Folder, in the Language Kits CD Extras folder. |
