Mac OS X 10.0: Conflict Catcher Requests Registration Information After Using Classic

When alternatively starting up the computer from Mac OS 9.1 and Mac OS X, Conflict Catcher may request registration information.
Symptom

Conflict Catcher software requests registration information even though you have previously registered the product.

Solution

If you use the Classic environment of Mac OS X and then restart the computer using Mac OS 9.1, Conflict Catcher may request registration information. The symptom may repeat itself the next time you start up the computer from Mac OS X and use the Classic environment. This happens when the same Mac OS 9.1 System Folder is used to start up both the computer and the Classic environment. This is the way that most computers are set up.

Note: Apple recommends contacting the software publisher for the latest information on this issue.

If you partition your hard disk, you may also use a workaround:

When you want to start up the computer from Mac OS 9.1, select the System Folder on Disk B as the Startup Disk.

Note: This workaround requires that you plan which Classic software you wish to have installed on each disk or on both. Items installed on one System Folder will not be available when the computer is started up from the other System Folder.
