    Recently, I tried downloading Hypercard player and running it on a mac but for some reason I'm not allowed to. Is there any other program out there that I can use to edit and play hypercard stacks? Thanks!

    I haven't seen hypercard since OS 7. Not sure it will run under emulation on the new macs.

    Revolution will allow you to import and manipulate Hypercard stacks. They used to have a seperate (and cheaper) app called Dreamcard that would allow you to do so as well, but they discontinued it.
    hydra - Believe it or not, Apple was actually still selling Hypercard up until a few months ago. Funny considering how they had so abruptly cut ties to all other things having to do with legacy Mac OS.
