When launching Performa Basics on the Performa 200, a message appears stating that the Performa 200 cannot be set to 16 colors, so the application will NOT run. It seems that Performa Basics requires a color monitor.
Performa Basics would not be useful for a Performa 200 user. Basic operation of the computer is thoroughly outlined in the User’s Guide.
The Performa 200 was the only model to use the classic compact Mac design, hence the lack of a color screen.

Joe Sills tells the story of the massive transition the weirdest building in Memphis has undergone in the last few years.
This week on Mac Power Users, we got into HomeKit:
Since its introduction, HomeKit has steadily grown into a wide-reaching ecosystem for smart home devices. This week, Stephen and David talk with Mikah Sargent about HomeKit hardware and software, as well as ways to extend what Apple allows it to do in its default app.
My thanks to our sponsors:
September is here, and with it, a new avalanche of Apple rumors. The guys talk about the iPhone 12, new iPads and over-ear headphones. Then, an in-depth conversation about iOS 14’s release date and what the future could bring to the Apple Watch.
On Connected Pro, the trio share thoughts on social media usage in 2020 and throwing remotes away.
My thanks to our sponsors this week:
September is National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
I know there are lots of great causes to care about in 2020, but St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is near and dear to my heart.
In May 2009, our oldest son was six months and diagnosed with a Glioma Astrocytoma brain tumor. Over the course of a weekend, we went from being new parents with nothing but optimism for our family, to new parents being told that our baby was facing impossible odds.
The “Show me when I am being observed” checkbox is deselected in the Network Assistant Security application on the client computer. However the eyes still appear in the client’s menu bar when the client is being observed from the Network Administrator station. This situation can occasionally occur when there is an issue with the Network Assistant preferences file.

We had a really cool interview this time on Mac Power Users:
David and Stephen are joined by orchestrator and composer David Metzger, whose resume includes Frozen, Muppets Most Wanted, The Avengers, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and more. He shares his setup, which includes multiple Macs networked together, numerous music applications and (eventually) a full-blown orchestra.
I had always assumed that the music creation process for films was intense, and it was super interesting to hear more about it.
It’s a pandemic outside, many of us are working from home, and I found myself buying a webcam for the first time since the last century. I was not the only one.
The webcams out there today, they do the job. You just plug them in and get a pretty nice video feed. But they’re not exactly design icons. I thought that, maybe, we can do a little better.
I missed the show this week, but it is a good one:
Apple and Epic continue to fight; we continue to have opinions. Wireless chargers continue to be released, but Apple doesn’t have an option. iOS betas are appearing at an increasing rate, and Federico has anxiety.
My thanks to our sponsors this week:
My wife Merri joined me for another installment of “Stephen touches Apple hardware while wearing a blindfold.”
It’s a busy week on Florida’s Space Coast, and supernovas are in the news. Thankfully the two won’t cross paths. Neither will Earth and an asteroid the day before Election Day in the United States.
