Feb 22, 2016 HI, I have a problem with my macintosh classic 1 that is running system 7.1. I want to install software on it using floppys. I've used Winimage and MacDisk but it doesn't seem to work. Sometimes the files aren't in the right format and other times the mac says it isn't a macintosh floppy and its need to be formatted. I want to install programs like Stuffit expander.

Jun 08, 2018 If you know of a site I've missed that is still providing software for vintage Macs, please, and I'll consider adding it to the tables above the next time I update this page. Classic Mac OS on Intel Powered Macs. I finally got unceremoniously thrust into the Intel powered Mac world with a number of failures of some of my PowerPC Macs.
The complete Info-Mac Archive. Please note that the Info-Mac Archive is no longer updated. Most of these resources are for Mac OS Classic and should be considered historical in nature only.

Hello,
First of all, I assume that you mean the 'real' Macintosh Classic, not an older 'classic' Macintosh computer. The Macintosh Classic can handle both 800K and 1.44 MB Mac-formatted floppies.
Mac Os 9 Software
The special 800K Mac format (on DD disks) can not be handled by an external USB drive, nor by a PC floppy drive. So, you must use 1.44 MB (HD) floppies for any transfers from, for example, a Windows PC.
Mac Computer
I am not familiar with files from the web site that you mentioned, but downloads from other sites (like http://archive.info-mac.org/ and http://umich.edu/~archive/mac/) have been encoded BinHex (.hqx) or MacBinary (.bin) for protection. Keep the encoded file as it is until on the Macintosh Classic. Once there, use StuffIt Expander for the decoding. Do not just double-click on the file. Instead, drag the file onto the StuffIt Expander program icon (or open the file via the File menu when StuffIt Expander has been launched).

Apple Mac Software Downloads
If you do not have an appropriate version of StuffIt Expander, you may want to try a method to create a 1.44 MB Mac floppy with the utility in question directly on a Windows/DOS PC:Re: Transfer Files to Powerbook 520c.
