The Copland Project was an effort by Apple Computer to create an updated version of their Mac OS operating system. Begun in earnest in 1994, it was abandoned in August 1996. 1 Background 2 Design 3 Development 4 Cancellation 5 NeXT steps 6 References 7 External links In 1989, mid-level managers at Apple sat down and planned the future course of Mac OS development. Ideas were tossed out at. Just upgraded an iMac to OSX 10.13. All VBox guests broke because of 3D acceleration: The VB frame became disconnected from the window's content, a rather strange effect. Apparently this is a Known Problem for a while. The fix is to disable 3D acceleration. Which brings me to my observation: Does 3D acceleration actually make any difference?
If your IMac is 24 in then it is probably too old.

But if anyone has a new Mac, it can support 3D. You should use mini-display to HDMI converter ($29) to connect to the TV. Boot to windows, and install Stereocopic Player software in windows on the mac. It should work. My advice is based on the following experience using the Imac with an LG Passive 3D monitor:
I use my Imac to watch steroscopic 3D (S3D) using an LG monitor:
Crashbot mac os.
I have a 2011 imac. I dont think you can do this with an earlier model, because only the new ones have the new Radeon graphics chip with the 3DHD capility, as well as 4 core processors. Of course, I could be wrong, maybe it will work on a 2010 or 2009. All I can say is it works well on a 2011..BUT AT THIS TIME YOU CAN ONLY DO THIS IF YOU BOOT INTO WINDOWS. No doubt apple 3D software for the masses is on its way, but it doesnt exist yet (except for some really hard to figure out hacked together stuff that I dont know of anyone who has been able to make work). Parallels will not work, you have to boot directly into windows using BootCamp.
Anyway, a week ago I bought one of the new LG passive 3D monitors that have just come out. This monitor is functionally the same as a 3D television. So I can verify that the IMac is capable of generating a 3D signal to a television. The LG monitor comes with TriDef software that will allow you to view certain 3D files (including 3D YouTube videos). It works surprisingly well and I am happy with it.. a couple caveats:
1. Tridef software (which is free with the monitor) is a bit crappy on some files, plays them for a while and then reports them as corrupt when they are not. If you are willing to pay the $50 for 'stereoscopic Player', I think that works better, but I havent tried it yet for more than the free 5 minute trial period. 'Stereoscopic Player' seems to be the most respected player. PowerDVD Ultra is also a big player, but it is expensive. Tri-Def will allow you to play many games, the only 'game' I have used so far is google earth, which works well in 3D.kinda cool.
2. You must connect the computer to the monitor using the mini-display to DVI converter. The monitor has HDMI in but it is a limitation of the monitor that you can only use the HDMI input to the monitor from a non-pc source. I have a playstation, 3d works great on the monitor from the playstation over HDMI.
3. You will have to set the monitor as the ONLY display in Windows. Any attempt at dual display will not work with 3D.
