    Dear Abby,

    Like some sort of puppy that is so glad to see you that it piddles on the floor when you pet them, my Mac seems hellbent on opening Classic mode when I click on an attachment of the PNG or TIF file types. Others seem to work okay but not these two types. I have done the obligatory “Get Info” to set the types and which app opens them. It works for a bit but my prefs soon blow out (only on those two file types) and then my Mac wants to piddle on my floor again.

    How do I train this puppy once and for all???

    Thank you,

    Piddled in California

    Fix the problem in 3 easy steps:

    1.) Drag OS 9 (classic) to the trash

    2.) Empty trash

    3.) Wave goodbye to an old friend that died many years ago.

    Sorry, I don’t have a specific answer (other than the one above) off the top of my head. I would start by trying the usual stuff:
