Can anyone help? We badly need a copy of Server 8 (or 8 Advanced)
__for Intel__ to replace our copy running on an old PowerPC G5 which
is on the point of failure and needs a hardware upgrade.

It seems that Filemaker ceased support for this a few months ago, and
I'm unable to find a copy anywhere. And no, we've tried but can't
update to a more recent FM version, due to masses of legacy scripts
we've written for this over many years.

If anyone has a box on their shelf, or knows where I could download it
from etc., you'd be a friend for life. We're willing to pay a fair
market price.

First, anything written in FM 8 will run on later versions, no need to
change anything. So you can go to a newer version with no penalty except
dollars. If you have actually found that not to be true, please
elaborate.

Second, PPC Mac software should run on an Intel Mac via Rosetta. There
might be some performance penalty. Have you tried installing your FM8
Server on the Intel Mac?

You could try eBay for old version of FM Server.
