[foleyvideo] “we think it is most probably a conflict with the ATTO Express PCI UL2S card. It’s a legacy and isn’t really supported anymore.”
That would be my guess as well. SCSI cards can be pain to keep up-to-date and old ones like yours are a recipe for problems. Trying to match older hardware, to newer, but still out of date software is often not worth the challenge. Sometimes, its more cost effective to update than troubleshoot endlessly. You can switch to SATA drives/RAID for pretty cheap and they’ll be faster and bigger than your Medea.

Look for the Quicktime 6.5.2 reinstaller on Apple’s website, it will remove Quicktime 7. Here’s a link to one that may still work: https://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktime652reinstallerforquicktime701.html (If you’re running Tiger Quicktime 7 is required)

The easiest solution for us both is to have you call Medea. They are very helpful and easy to get ahold of. If your card will still work with Panther, then it probably needs new drivers and/or firmware. Medea may also have a firmware update that is required. Either way, Medea is likely to have the answers for you, without you having to do a lot of research on your own.

The applications need to support network rendering in most cases. After Effects already has a solution for this, as do some 3D applications. You might want to check with your software developer to see if they have a solution for you. It would help to tell us what application/s you’d like to use network rendering with.

Hi Andrew,
It’s probably either an extension issue or a network one. Try removing all the OS 9 extensions except the default ones and rebooting OS 9. Also, you’ll want to delete the folder named “Servers” in the OS 9 system folder (you might try disconnecting your Ethernet cable to test as well).
I just searched Apple, and here’s a couple of links that should help you solve the mystery: https://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106835 and/or https://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106677

I believe the drivers have to be specifically written/updated to work with each individual application to output through the Io. I doubt we’ll see support for iTunes anytime soon. However, you can just plug an analog stereo cable into the back of your Mac to go out to your Mackie and then to your powered speakers(that’s what I do), or use the digital out as needed.

Memory problems caused by poorly made or not totally compatible memory being installed are common and very hard to troubleshoot. Unless you really know what you are looking at, play it safe and go with Crucial memory as Jeff suggests: https://www.crucial.com/
Crucial’s price are pretty good and even if it costs an extra few bucks, its worth it.

You can try this: https://www.subrosasoft.com/thestore/default.php but deleted OS X files are not like deleted OS 9 files. OS X writes over your deleted file immediately making recovery very difficult. Generally, if you don’t have a file recovery application installed before you delete your files, you won’t be getting them back. So your recovery chances are probably pretty poor and may not be possible without sending your drive to someone like DriveSavers (expensive).
Let us know if you do manage to recover your files (or don’t). It’s very helpful for us to have first hand accounts of the how these recovery applications are working.

To add to what Jeff was saying, Apple changed their numbering scheme with OS X. Each “Dot” upgrade is a full version upgrade (10.1, 10.2, 10.3 10.4) each packed with new features. Apple didn’t want to stop using the OS X name, so they didn’t. You need to purchase the dot (full version) upgrades Just like you payed when going from OS 8 to OS 9. If you follow that, then its easy to see Apple is really up to like OS 14 now (or 13 depending on how you look at it).
