Mathematica 1.0 crashes in NeXTSTEP 3.3 on Previous 2.2 (solved) and License ?

Hello NeXT Community:

 I figured out why if you are running Mathematica 1.0 and it Crashes in version 3.3 simply move Mathematica.app to the NextApps directory :) ,

if it is located in apps or localapps then it bombs.

I found this out by clicking on the math kernel

 on later Mathematia versions , you can install it in different directories like Apps and LocalApps.

WHY? Mathematica 1.0 was bundled with NeXTSTEP 1.0 and unbundled later.

So later versions require for registration ;
 a organization name,
machine name which it assigns,
License number and then
the password which would come from
 registering the product at wolfram.com/registration (no longer works).

Wolfram assigned me licenses long ago to provide hobbyist NeXT mathematica licenses for the NeXT community . We were able to register and obtain passwords from Wolfram but it no longer works and the trail has gone cold. My contacts at Wolfram have retired or passed:)

I know there is also a workaround to bypass the licensing .... if anyone has the procedure  available it would be very much appreciated , as we can unlock 3.0. (please drop me an email)

Here is my statement from Wolfram , so yes it is OK to do this

I also can provide a NeXT download of Mathematica 3.0 ISO for $19.95 (keeps the lights on)
and I also have original Mathematica 2.1 Floppies for $50  if anyone is interested
please drop me an email.

I accept paypal for payment and will send you a paypal invoice with download instructions.

Thanks, the was the final piece of the puzzle for me. My NextStation came with Mathematica 2.2, but the license was invalid -- I've tried everything to get a copy working. I had similar results when I emailed Wolfram asking for help.

Since Mathematica 1.0 was bundled with NS1.0, I figured that was fair game. Here's what I had to do to get it into my NS3.3 slab...

• Downloaded the WinWorld NextStep 1.0 image: https://winworldpc.com/product/nextstep/1x
• Converted the raw (dd) image to VDI: https://blog.sleeplessbeastie.eu/2012/04/29/virtualbox-convert-raw-image-to-vdi-and-otherwise/
• Mounted the new VDI as a second hard drive (shows as a CD) in my OpenStep 4.2 VirtualBox VM: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Av5IQUxnr8DUjd5jeLvF3okH2VJxkA?e=88iIvu
• Copied Mathematica.app to /me on my VM, then tar'ed and gzipped it
• Copied it to my NFS network share running on my Raspberry Pi https://www.jonandnic.com/2020/08/28/nextstep-openstep-nfs-file-share-with-a-raspberry-pi/
• Copied it from there to my NextSlab and uncompressed it to /NextApps

If anyone wants to skip all those steps, here's a direct link to my Mathematica 1 archive:

At some point, I'll try hacking the licensing tool and see if I can make my Mathematica 2.2 work.
