the end is nigh! :weight_lift:

suleiman,

 

well bully for your hardware! grrrr :)

 

what is it by the way?

 

i wish i were clever enough, and interested enough to track down what it's doing.

 

i've bought quite a few programs now. i can always use them on future realmac.

 

one that i bought Sachs Marine Screensaver doesn't work on my osX86. my serial input remains greyed out. i gave it to a mac for mothers day. ;)

 

some companies will make the effort to restrict their software to macs, i've no real problem with that, but i wish they'd share that info on their site.

Tried FruitMenu and it didn't work. I changed the settings for my Apple menu, clicked apply, and nothing happened. Then I clicked "reset" and it said "warning: this will set all settings to default" and the dialogue box refused to close no matter how many times I clicked "ok" or "cancel."

 

I think they still have a lot of work to do with these betas...

WindowShade

Dont seem to be working right for me, only app it seems to work on at the moment is PS CS 2, so guess its still only running for PPC stuff... I'll try with thoast and that should prove its only PPC apps it works on.

 

-----------------------------

 

Confirmed, only works for PPC Apps.. :P

  • 1 month later...

I just did some tests. Although FruitMenu is universal, it doesn't work with universal applications. It only affects the menu bar when PowerPC applications are running. Pretty stupid, huh?

 

I tried contacting the developersa few times, but they always either ignore me or refuse to acknowledge this problem. Aside from ClearDock, none of their universal products seem to work properly.

ClearDock is a freeware, thats the reason it is working. They didn't put any hardware check on freewares.

Payware haxies have the hardware check, if you aren't on a real Mac, they won't be functional.

Reason the PPC applications are working because they are running under Rosetta. System will imitate a PPC, so your machine will look like a PPC and applications can't tell if its running on a real Mac or a hackintosh.

 

If you look at console while running the payware Unsanity haxies, you will see "[APE] <NULL> is not compatible with the hardware in this computer and therefore will not be functional. To find a list of computers that is compatible with <NULL>, please go to <http://store.apple.com/>". Thats basically saying if you are pirating the OS, you will pirate our software, and we don't want that.

 

What am i thinking is if we can run System Preferences under Rosetta, haxies could be functional, but there is no "Open using Rosetta" checkbox for System Preferences. Does anyone know how to force System Prefs to run under Rosetta?

 

Edit: Btw, the hardware check isn't for Machine name or model, i tried changing both identical to iMac. It is not functional still.

$ /usr/libexec/oah/translate /Applications/System\ Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/System\ Preferences

 

I don't think it's going to work, because the haxie will probley only work under rosetta apps.

 

Thanks for the tip. Yea, it works only for Rosetta applications. :hbd:

Still getting "not compatible with hardware" errors for Intel apps.

For the first time in a while, I actually got a reply to a product complaint. I had originally e-mailed the developers asking why FruitMenu didn't work on Intel apps. (This was before I learned that they shut out illegal OS X users.) Here's basically what their reply said:

 

"Hello. Could you please e-mail us a system profiler report?"

 

In my email, I made it pretty clear that I had an Intel machine. Apple has only released a handful of Intel Macs so far, and there can't be more than 10-12 different machine hardware configurations at this point. I think they were trying to trick me into showing a hardware report that would reveil the fact that I'm running a hackintosh.

 

I somehow forsee Shapeshifter being locked air-tight from illegal OS X users... :wallbash:

I was just thinking, if Unsanity can do it. Apple can too. So can Adobe and Microsoft Office and all other Application devlopers.

 

Will Apple force app developers to use this on their software?? I hope not.

hold the space bar while installing the apps this will override any encryption trust me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

yeah then i woke up from a dream i was having regarding not being able to run os x on my built hakcintosh and was forced to buy a mac.

Are u serious about the spacebar thing

The question is, what can be the reason why unsanity does so? In my opinion, they think, if you are a hackintosh user, you crack/hack everything that you can, so obviously you wont pay for their products, just get a serial from somewhere, and thats not a good business for them.

But fortunatly, other companies dont think so. Even if you hacked osx to run on pc, you can be good boy, and buy a software. :D

Just my thoughts...

 

PS:the space bar thing didnt work for me too

Whatever method they use to block out illegal users of OS X, it can't be that complicated. Once Shapeshifter becomes uni-bin, I'm sure people will get interested in finding a work-around. With some increased interest, it'll probably be a matter of days before somebody figures it out.

 

P.S. The "spacebar" thing is rubbish.
