Hi

I am looking for an Apple Performa 5500/180 original CDs.

I have a genuine Apple CD with Power MacIntosh 5500 series.. That any good for you?

[afberendsen]

Hi. I think so....I want to re-install my Apple Performa 5500 and I do not have the CDs anymore. My Mac OS 9 CD is not compatible with this machine -- I need to user the original CDs. Will you be able to send me the ISOs? I can share a folder on my Google drive and you can upload to it.

You'll have to help me here. What is ISO (I thought it was film speed)

RLOL

ISO is an image file created dumping the entire contents of a CD or DVD. Depending on the operating system you are using, this can be generated using different tools. Windows, Mac OS, Linux..each one has a different way of creating it.

Another option is to copy the CDs and send it (I will pay for the costs, of course) to me.

OK I'll give it a go....

I've made a .dmg image of the CD using a Mac.

Wow! Thank you very much.

Try to upload it to

I will see if I can burn a CD tonight.

If you know how to use Mac OS X command line (bash), you can use dd:

dd if=/dev/... of=~/Downloads/cd-Image.iso

Tried to drag and drop to your dropbox.... No joy. Hence my hatred for Google apps...
How about pm me your email addy?
Cheers
