Weird message on SE!
Ok, I had a Macintosh SE, I got it from a thrift store, well, I loved the little machine, and really enjoyed the collectors item. But one time I booted it up, everything was working fine until I got a weird message after three extensions loaded, it read "Applications may be busy, or damaged Finder". I knew I needed to install system software, but I couldn't because I had no disks. But I think it was when I switched it to SimpleFinder when that happened. No one else has been able to tell me this rare message, so I'm hoping you guys can!javascript:%20void(0); Thanks!!!! |

Re: Weird message on SE!
It's 'cause you already figured out how to fix it. Reinstall the OS. Or, if you have a disk/file utility, try it/them first. Maybe you'll get lucky. |

Re: Weird message on SE!
I told you, I don't have any disk utilities for it, (I only have it for the Classic, which got jammed in the machine with another disk when I got it, and had to remove them both with A screwdriver, (someone must of thought that the hard drive was another disk drive!)  Anyway, thanks, but I don't know where that strange message is!! It just happened one night after swithcing it to Simple Finder, (which could NOT be it!) Anyway, thanks again

Re: Weird message on SE!
We all assume that you want help because you asked for it. Twice. You got a good answer. If you don't intend to follow any advice, then don't ask for it. :) Don't have disk utilities for it? Get some. Apple still has free downloads of OS up to 7.5.5. Disk First Aid is not a very powerful utility, but it's free. |
