The Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9 release proved to be the most significant of all the releases made by apple in the Mac operating system X series. Mavericks proved to have a lot of in-built features that made it stand apart from all other operating systems released under the tag of the Mac OS X line up. The major standpoint behind the release of the Mavericks OS was t make sure that there was increased battery life, more adaptability and add in more application and revamp the old applications in terms of aesthetics.

Overview

The Mavericks OS also made sure that the mac system was stable in terms of performance and made the best out of the existing software such that apple didn’t have to run the compatibility test on the newly developed software. The OS also packed powerful improvements in terms of graphical efficiency as well as to get the most out of your RAM. All these elements packed together made sure that the Mac OS X Mavericks got a superior hold over the battery performance.

There are also various other features like the improvement in the usage of the applications through aesthetic detailing as well as user-friendliness embedded into the Mac OS makes it even more appealing.

1. iBooks

The iBooks is a beautifully done software that is exclusively built for reading books. This application covers all the aspects of a perfect reading application starting from night mode reading to exclusive fonts, highlighting and taking notes and much more. There is a wide range of collections in the library that allows you to have nearly 2 million book collections. Some of the basic things that come along with the system are the syncing of all the mac devices so that all the books that you register using the Apple device will be available throughout all the devices that are connected across along all the devices.

2. Multiple Display support

There was an expectation among the mac users that they wanted to have the extensions of their macs to other displays as well. This was particularly the request from all the graphical designers and people whose life revolved around the heavy usage of monitors and computers. Apple decided to release this feature along with the Mac OS X mavericks to ensure that the need was looked into. It did not require much of the configurations to enable this display configuration. The extensions of the display were just like that done as an extension to other system displays that necessarily didn’t have to be an apple monitor. This also made sure that the graphical card was put to the best use.

3. Apple maps

The much-anticipated application from apple was Apple Maps. It is a dedicated map application that was designed for Apple devices to get the best out of your outside world. Apple maps had all the features of a conventional map application with all the revolutionary standpoints that would be covered by a map application. The apple map also displayed adaptive such that the application would adjust the resolution accordingly to the device it is being used in.

Apple decided to release apple maps with the Mac OS X Mavericks keeping in mind that the OS was the revolutionary kind that was released with all the standard features that will remain in Apple devices.

4. Apple calendar

The apple calendar was also a feature that was adored by many with the release of the Mac OS X Mavericks. The apple calendar will help you with events and also it will help you integrate the newly added maps application to get your way to a mentioned event in the calendar.

5. iCloud keychain

The iCloud keychain was released along with the Mac OS X Mavericks as there was an update in the framework of Safari to support the keychain feature. The iCloud Keychain is a password keeper that is embedded along with the Mac OS to ensure that all your passwords are kept safe and secure. The Security protocol of iCloud Keychain is so complex that it would definitely be a tough framework to crack into. It saves information starting from credit card information to the Wi-Fi logins as well. This made sure that the Mac OS X Mavericks was much more user-friendly as well with its release.

System Requirements

  • Minimum 2GB of RAM
  • Minimum of 8GB HDD drive
  • It can run on any mac system that can run the OS X mountain lion.

(Updated Dec 11, 2018)

I recently got an urge to revisit old computer media from the late 90s and early 2000s. Growing up around that time, I remember reading a lot of MacAddict and MacWorld to learn what I could do with a Mac. Building websites, graphic design, hacking the appearance of the UI, all these were explained in the pages of magazines.

These magazines are freely available on the Internet Archive, including their cover discs. I was curious to see what applications were around back then — what about emulating Classic Mac OS to see?

Creative variations in UI design

My first instinct was to reach for VirtualBox, but that is a no go as I need to emulate a Motorola 68K or IBM PowerPC architecture. I recalled that QEMU could emulate other architectures, surely someone has already tried to emulate Mac OS 9.

Yes, many people have already written about emulating Mac OS 9, but only recently (2018) did experimental audio support come out for QEMU. Here is a short guide on how I got it running with MacOS High Sierra as the Host OS.

Note that while QEMU is available in Homebrew, it does not have the experimental audio support (yet).

Internet Archive

Magazines can be browsed right on the archive site, or downloaded as archives or PDFs (or a torrent containing all formats). Cover discs can be downloaded directly as ISO files or a torrent for the ISO. Don’t worry about seedless torrents; these ones are backed with web seeding.

Mac Os 9 Installer

Requirements

DevTools: I already have homebrew and XCode installed; because of this I was not prompted for missing command line tools. If you don’t have them, you might be prompted (by MacOS) to install them.

Hardware: I am not sure about hardware requirements, as most modern Macs will probably eclipse the power needed to run the guest OS. However if you have a low-power CPU (e.g. MacBook) then there may be some struggling.

Windows/Linux: These instructions should probably work there too, although you will probably have to substitute something else for coreaudio in the configuration step.

Get QEMU “Screamer” Fork

These instructions are adapted from Cat_7 from the Emaculation forums

I started by creating a directory for all this emulation stuff.

Next clone the fork of QEMU with experimental audio support:

Then configure the source to use MacOS CoreAudio. I have also enabled LibUSB, KVM, HyperVirtualization Framework, and the Cocoa UI. In this case I am only compiling the emulator for PPC (32-bit).

Next use make to compile QEMU. (If you have more processor cores, use make -j 4 or however many cores to speed up the process.)

This will create a binary in qemu-screamer/ppc-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc that we can use.

Optionally you can install these binaries to /usr/local/bin or wherever. I kept them in the ~/emulation directory to separate them from the Homebrew QEMU binaries.

Create HD for Mac OS 9

We will need to have a hard drive image for our guest OS. I made mine 5 GB in size, which would be typical at the time for Mac OS 9.

In our qemu-screamer directory, we will use qemu-img to create the disk image.

Get a Mac OS 9 Installer

If you have an ISO of a Mac OS 9 install disc (a Mac OS X classic install disc will not work — it must be bootable), then you can use that in the next step. If you don’t have one, you can download one from Mac OS 9 Lives: Mac OS 9.2.2 Universal Install.

Install Mac OS 9

The Mac OS 9 Lives method won’t install quite like an original Mac OS 9 installer would, but instead will use Apple System Restore to restore an image onto the hard drive.

9.2

Start up QEMU with the following options:

A breakdown of that command:

  • -L qemu-screamer/pc-bios sets the BIOS
  • -cpu 'g4' emulate a G4 CPU
  • -M mac99,via=pmu will define the Mac model and enable USB support
  • -m 512 use 512 MB of RAM, could go lower probably
  • -hda macos92.img use our generated disk image for the hard drive
  • -cdrom '~/Downloads/Mac OS 9.2.2 Universal Install.iso' use the ISO for the cdrom
  • -boot d boot from the disk drive
  • -g 1024x768x32 default to 1024x768 resolution and 32 bit colour
  • -device usb-kbd enable USB keyboard emulation/support
  • -device usb-mouse enable USB mouse input, will improve cursor tracking somewhat

Once it starts up, you will be able to run Disk Initializer to format your hard drive image. Go ahead and do that, using Mac OS HFS Extended as the file system. One partition is good.

After initializing the disk, run Apple System Restore with the Mac OS 9 Lives disk image as the source and your disk as the destination. This will take a minute to restore. Once done, shut down the emulated system (Special Menu -> Shut Down).

Boot Mac OS 9

Similar to the last command, except we start up from the disk we created.

It should boot up and you will have a running Mac OS 9 with audio! I recommend saving this command as a shell script in your ~/emulation directory.

Boots much faster than it did in 2001

Tips

Backups: When the emulator is shut down, just make a copy of the hard disk image to create a backup. If something breaks your Mac OS 9 installation then you can restore the file.

Discs: You can dynamically attach CDs/DVDs to the emulated system by going to the menu bar on your host system for the QEMU application and selecting the option to attach to the CD IDE drive. It will open a dialog letting you select your ISO.

Compatibility: This is emulating Mac OS 9.2.2, released in late 2001. The emulated hardware is more or less of the same vintage, meaning software from the mid-to-late 90s will have some trouble running (as I found). The most common problem is not being able to drop down to 256 colours, although I later found a solution (link below). I have not tried emulating Mac OS 8/8.5; a cursory reading of forums has mentioned that doesn’t work yet.

256 Colours

Mac Os 9.2.2 Universal Install

To support 256 colours you will need to add a bios driver. See the EMaculation forums for instructions; it involves replacing a file in the pc-bios directory with an older version that still supports 256 colours.

I removed the extra arguments from configure as by default it will enable everything it can. make should use -j instead of -J. Using USB devices for mouse/keyboard improves mouse performance, but it still is a bit sluggish compared to the host machine. I found a way to get 256 colours working; see that section for a guide.
