Welcome to the MacNN Forums.

I have lost the ability to run PPC apps on my MacBook. I have searched through the forums and found a similar situation, but that person had used Monolingual to strip the PPC code from their system. I have not done that. In fact, I haven't installed anything that would alter the system in that way.

Anyone know what is going on???

Open the Console app (it's in /Applications/Utilities), then try to run a PPC app and see what shows up in the Console.

Perhaps you can look into the system log and see what error messages are showing up there.

The console says all the apps are crashing, and it's writing logs. Here are two of them:

Anything show up in the Console besides the crash reports?

jokell82 · Jul 9, 2006, 08:36 PM

Nope.

jokell82 · Jul 9, 2006, 08:48 PM

A restart seemed to fix it. Wonder what it was?

Yup. Something goobered Rosetta's capabilities in memory. A restart cleared everything so Rosetta could get a fresh start.

That's a good thing to know-Rosetta might hiccough, but a restart can fix the issue.
