How to download and view legacy documentation from Apple (no need to sign in to your dev account)

1. Download the docset index XML.
2. Find the docset you want (there are some with URL https://apple.com/none.dmg; ignore them - you will find them again further down the file with a working URL).
3. Download the dmg. It's probably around a gigabyte or so.
4. "Install" the .pkg file somewhere on your disk. If you don't trust the installer, do it manually:
   1. Find the largest file, named Payload, and extract it using The Unarchiver.
   2. This creates a new, even larger file, probably named Payload-1.
   3. Extract Payload-1 using The Unarchiver.
5. After many minutes of extracting, we have our .docset file.

# This script can be used to convert .dv files downloaded from a minidv camcorder to .mp4 files convenient for storing/uploading
#
# The files were imported using iMovie HD 6 on an old Snow Leopard Mac Mini
# iMovie can be downloaded at:
# https://www.macintoshrepository.org/24547-imovie-6-hd-6-5-1
#
# Finding the hardware can be the most challenging part. 
# You need, an old computer with firewire, a firewire cable with appropriate adapters, and a mini dv camcorder with firewire output

QEMU Mac OS 9 Instructions

Here is a short guide on how to build QEMU to run Mac OS 9 with working audio. These instructions work for MacOS High Sierra as the host OS, although with some tweaking they may run under Linux/Windows. You should be comfortable compiling software from source before attempting.

Clone QEMU fork

Adapted from instructions from Cat_7

You may need to install XCode and/or the XCode command line tools. If you do not have them, then this process may prompt you to install them (MacOS will do that).
