Running OS 10.4.7 on Mac Mini (not Intel). I am setting up a managed user and have several OS 9 apps that he needs access to. They are specialized analysis programs for which there is unlikely to be any upgrade. Some work great - OS 9 loads and the app starts right up. However, a couple give me this error: "You cannot open the applicaiton <name> because it is not supported on this system." However, I can run it as system administrator. I've tried giving the managed user read & write access to the application folder and everything in it but it doesn't solve the problem. I am a non-Mac person and am getting really frustrated!
Thanks in advance for help.
It baffles me that you say you can launch it as administrator (I assume you mean on OSX) but not a restricted user (does it launch as a standard user?). A couple of options are it is trying to access a hardware service which has some special support only available as admin, or it is trying to launch an app/service denied for a restricted user
