System Software 6.0.8 OS family Source model April 1988; 30 years ago ( 1988-04) 6.0.8 / April 1991; 27 years ago ( 1991-04) type Proprietary Preceded by Succeeded by Support status Unsupported, historic System 6 (also referred to as System Software 6) is a -based for computers. It was released in 1988 by and is part of the series of operating systems. System 6 was included with all new Macintosh computers until it was succeeded by in 1991. The boxed version of System 6 cost $49 when introduced. System 6 is classed as a operating system. It features an improved, which allows for.

Contents. Main features MacroMaker A new utility called MacroMaker was included with System 6. When enabled, it allowed users to record mouse and keyboard input as '.' MacroMaker had a unique user interface, which aimed to look and act like a.

Key Features The conversation continues on PC * The chat feature of the couple app, Between, is now available as a PC version (Mac). Continue the conversation with your loved one when ever, wherever.

MacroMaker was criticized for its lack of features when compared to 's AutoMac III, which was already available commercially. As MacroMaker only recorded the locations of mouse-clicks inside windows and not what was being clicked or exactly when, users soon found that it could not be used to automate more sophisticated programs. The pre-recorded clicks would miss buttons if they had moved or failed to appear upon playback.

In addition, MacroMaker had limitations wherein it recorded the start and end locations of mouse movements but not the precise path of the movements, and its macros did not handle situations that required the macro to wait for a period of time before or after an action. MacroMaker was not compatible with, which marked the introduction of as an alternative. Multitasking Cooperative multitasking made its Macintosh debut in March 1985 with a program called Switcher by, which allowed the user to launch multiple applications and switch between them.

Many programs and features did not function correctly with Switcher. Also, Switcher did not display windows of other applications beside the selected one. It was not included with the operating system, but was available from Apple for purchase separately. Both System 5 and System 6 had a feature called instead, which was much more mature and widely used in System 6. MultiFinder could be enabled or disabled, with a reboot.

If disabled, the Finder would quit when the user launched another application, thus freeing for it. If enabled, the system behaved as in the nowadays familiar multitasking tradition, with the desktop and windows of other applications in the screen's background.

Hardware support System 6 included support for the Apple and other. New allowed the ImageWriter LQ to be used on local area networks and supports use of tabloid, or B, size paper (11 in × 17 in (280 mm × 430 mm)).

System 6 also included QuickerGraf (originally called QuickerDraw), a piece of system software used to accelerate the drawing of color screen images on the. It was licensed to Apple and by its programmer,. Limitations System 6's cannot be used to launch applications. The current application icon in the upper right-hand corner of the cycles between open applications; it is not a menu. System 6 supports 24 of addressable (random access memory), which allowed a maximum of 8 of with no provision for. These limitations were fixed in System 7. The version of the used by System 6 also has a capacity limit; it supports up to 2 (GBs) and 65,536 files on a drive.

This limitation was not increased until.5 which first increased the limit to 4 GB. The Trash (or 'Wastebasket' in the British version) empties when the Finder terminates. If MultiFinder is not running, this occurs as soon as an application launches. Icons on the desktop in System 6 are not organized into a single folder, as in later operating systems. Instead, the system records whether each file is on the desktop or not.

This is inefficient and confusing, as the user cannot browse to the desktop in applications besides the Finder, even within the standard Open and Save As. Furthermore, these dialogs are primitive, mostly unchanged since 1984. The lack of, shortcuts to files, was another limitation of file management on System 6.

Custom file and folder icons are also not supported. These problems were all remedied in System 7. A maximum of 15 may be installed at one time, including the Chooser, Scrapbook, and Control Panel. System 6 uses the Control Panel desk accessory to access all the installed control panels, which imposes severe user interface limitations. Desk Accessories cannot be installed or removed within the Finder; this requires the Font/DA Mover utility.

Also fixed this. Control panels, however, are contained in separate files. Few methods exist for interface personalization. The Finder allows each icon to be assigned a color, but the desktop background is limited to an 8x8 pixel color tiled pattern (color patterns were introduced in System 5 ), and standard window frames are all black and white.

However, many ' extension files existed to add color and customization. Later allowed the user to change the color and various other aspects of the user interface. By 1989, the System 6 user interface was in need of a change. In comparison to the operating system of the time, System 6 did not make use of sound, and its user interface presented several limitations in terms of file management and the way windows were displayed. Reception The initial releases of System 6 were unstable; many did not receive copies before its release, resulting in widespread compatibility problems. At first, many common software programs such as, and were not fully compatible with System 6. There were also software bugs in the Color Manager, Script Manager, and Sound Manager files.

Apple announced that 66 bugs were fixed when the 6.0.1 update was released in September 1988. However, a major bug involving text spacing of screen fonts was found in 6.0.1 after distribution began. This led to the quick release of 6.0.2, which solved this problem. Some customers waited longer until moving to System 6 because of the poor reputation already gained. Compatibility System 6 was officially supported by Apple for many different machines, some of which were shipped with System 6.

It may be that some Apple computers for which System 6 was not officially supported may nevertheless be able to run it, perhaps with limitations. ^ Paden, Jake (November 1988), 'Now we are six (System Software 6.0 for the Macintosh)', p. 184. ^ Forbes, Jim (April 12, 1988), 'Apple to enhance system software, desktop database.' , p. 11. ^ Beaver, David (July 19, 1988), 'Some simpler solutions to making macros (MacroMaker and AutoMac III macro recorders for the Macintosh)', p. 44.

Many of the cdev modules that come with System Tools 5.0 are for the Macintosh II, including a new one called 'Color' that allows you to change the highlight color, the color used as a background when text or an icon is selected. The General cdev also adds the ability to set the desktop pattern color on a Macintosh II.
