I want to install Mac OS 9.2.2 on a G3 Power Mac (upgraded to G4). I have the OS 9.0.x disc, and installed that. Then I wanted to download the 9.1, 9.2.1, and 9.2.2 updates like I always have. However, I got a 404 error on Apple's download page. Were these removed? Is there anywhere else to get them? Please help, I have some classic programs I can't use on any other computer.
Thanks.
Mac OS 9.0.x

Thank you, Don. I decided to buy a 9.2.2 system disc since the links are "inadvertently" broken and who knows if/when Apple will fix it. I really hope they do but having the physical disc will be insurance against having to abandon OS9 completely...
Yes, I have hung onto all my copies of retail OS 9 Install CDs.
Re the download links, their non-working status has been reported through the forum's Hosts - more than once. Whether someone will get around to fixing the issue is another thing.
You can download the OS 9.1, 9.2.1, and 9.2.2 updates here: http://x704.net/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5623
