Macintosh SerialKeys
Please note the following restrictions to the
operation of SerialKeys for the Macintosh:
1. The Macintosh version of SerialKeys requires the Macintosh
computer Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) hardware to be present.
Therefore, it will not work with the very early Macintosh
computers, such as the original MAC Plus, MAC 128, or MAC
512 computers.
2. The Macintosh version of SerialKeys has been written to
utilize several new operating system features offered by the
Macintosh System 7.0 (or newer) and therefore may not run
properly, if at all, on systems prior to System 7.0.
3. The Macintosh version of SerialKeys should operate on 68K
as well as PowerPC Macintosh computers.
4. The Macintosh version of SerialKeys has not been tested on
any of the Macintosh "clone" computers now appearing on the
market.
5. The Macintosh version of SerialKeys requires an unused
serial port on your Macintosh computer. This can be either
your modem or printer port. If one of these ports is not
available, you will not be able to run SerialKeys. Note,
sometimes these ports appear available (e.g., nothing is
plugged into them), yet they are still being used. For example,
an internal modem may tie up your modem port and/or
AppleTalk can tie up your printer port, even if cables are not
connected to the computer ports themselves. Disabling your
internal modem software (usually a control panel) and
AppleTalk (usually under the Chooser) and rebooting your
Macintosh may free up these ports for use with SerialKeys.
6. If you wish to run Easy Access MouseKeys with SerialKeys,
you must start MouseKeys prior to starting SerialKeys. The
latest version of Easy Access allows you to have any of the
access features automatically turn on when your computer is
powered on. This option provides a nice solution to the need
for MouseKeys to be on prior to starting SerialKeys, provided
you wish to use the two features together. Please see the
readme file for more information on this.
If you meet these requirements, and SerialKeys will still not
run on your computer, the software should provide some kind
of error message. Please contact us with this information.
