Apple Works 6 doesn't work with Lion...

I just downloaded Lion & now several "PowerPC" applications no longer work on my computer. I never use Apple Works 6, except for my Christmas Card labels...and now I can't access them. I have called into Apple Support - and they can't help me either. They suggested that I find a 3rd party software by googling it to find a file converter...but I have had ZERO luck, everything I find is a download for a PC, not a Mac.
Can anyone help? I can't open it in Excel (its a bunch of crap on my screen) & Numbers won't open it either...I'm rendered helpless...

When you say that your label data was kept in Appleworks was it kept in a database?
If so there is probably nothing that can open it under Lion.
I know when I did my migration from AW, all of my document I was able to open in Pages and all of my spreadsheet I was able to open in numbers.
The information I had in AW databse I had to export using AW and then I imported it to Bento. I did all of this before migrating to Lion.
If this information is that important to you, it may be necessary for you to run Snow Leopard again at least on a partition to get the data exported.

HT5706 I am trying to set up Apple TV with my Uverse WiFi, but I get errors when entering my password. One site said that Apple TV doesn't work with WPA which Uverse uses. Is there anyway around this or will Uverse and Apple TV just not work together.

Trying to set up Apple TV with ATT Uverse. I get errors when trying to enter my WiFi password. One site says that Apple TV doesn't work with Uverse because it uses WPA for encryption. If true, does that mean Uverse subscribers cannot use Apple TV?

No, that's a rather silly conclusion.
There are two options:
stop using the crappy router provided by the ISP.
Physically connect the ATV to the router via Ethernet.

Apple TV doesn't work with HDMI Switch

Apple TV doesn't seem to work with my HDMI Switch. Tried every combination of cables. Tried switching all devices on and off at different times. Googled to see if anyone else has tried a switcher with Apple TV. All I know is: PlayStation 3 works just fine running through the switcher. Apple TV doesn't work at all with the switcher, only when plugged directly into the TV.
I only have one HDMI port on my Samsung HDTV and two HDMI devices (PlayStation 3, Apple TV). All my component slots are full and I already have a component switcher that's full, too. So HDMI is the only option for me.
Any ideas? Switcher claims to support HDCP... and it does do HD resolutions (PS3 displaying in 720p).

I use this 5x1 switch from Monoprice and it works fine, switching 3 devices, which are then routed through my AV receiver's switch... Despite the convoluted hookup, I have not had HDCP handshake issues.

The nice thing about this switch is:
1. It works: no discernable loss in quality, switches relatively quickly, etc.
2. It's cheaper than many others, like Gefen, or even the Xtrememac (which is 4x1)
3. The remote has discrete buttons for each input, which is very helpful when setting up a universal remote like my Harmony 880. I can't tell from the Xtrememac picture if it's a direct input, or if you can only cycle through the inputs...
Good luck!

How works final cut studio with lion?

how works final cut studio with lion?

The thing to take from FCPX is that it isn't an update/upgrade from 7. It's an entirely new editor. As a professional video editor myself for 5 years, I felt just as hesitant as you when I first saw what Apple had done. However, I committed myself to biting the bullet for a little while to get comfortable with the new workflow, and I can vouch for Apple's new move toward this type of setup. It has improved my workflow enough to where I can confidently say I deliver projects, on average, in half the time, with no sacrifice to quality.
Give it another chance, if you can afford it. With a bit of training, and time into using it, you'll see it's a superior editor to FCP 7

When Apple Care Doesn't Work

Has anyone had problems getting something solved through Apple Care technical support? This is the second time for me with this computer. Last time, over a year ago, they finally paid to have it put in the shop. I've been dealing with them with this issue since November. Two regular level and two specialists have tried to help me. We've done all of the regular stuff, making more room on the hard drive, resetting the PRAM, taking stuff off and reinstalling the system software. The last was done on Friday. I'm still having problems. It totally freezes up at odd times. Sometimes there are black lines across the screen. It is now (since the reinstall) not recognizing my external hard drive and saying it can't open itunes. I'm so frustrated! Not only do my kids need the computer for homework, but I have a part-time home business and need to print shipping labels etc. as well as look up information related to my business. Any suggestions? I've had Macs almost since they came out and this really makes me want to get a PC. I realize they can have problems, too, but at least they are cheaper.

"Will Apple keep making updates to 10.4"
That final version update of Tiger is 10.4.11.
"Should I buy 10.5? It's been my feeling that since this particular computer has had so many problems I shouldn't spend any more money on it unless I am convinced it will continue working well (or begin working well) for a while. " I wouldn't think it would be advisable to upgrade to Leopard until your Mac is stable.

Robert,
Unfortunately we don't have an Apple store here. I hear there may be one soon. There are various people who contract with Apple to do repairs, so maybe I need to go to one of those. The question, then, is, how do I get Apple to pay. Since my computer is still under Apple Care and since I've had extended problems with it, they should, right?
Carolyn,
I didn't list all of the things that have been tried on it in the past four months...hard to remember. I had done the disk utility probably twice before. I did update to 10.4.11, as you suggested. How does this work with updating? Will Apple keep making updates to 10.4 even though they have 10. 5 out? Should I buy 10.5? It's been my feeling that since this particular computer has had so many problems I shouldn't spend any more money on it unless I am convinced it will continue working well (or begin working well) for a while.
I didn't understand all of your directions. I found the disk utility, although it wasn't listed under the finder menu bar. I" There is a Disk Utility application on your hard drive. Applications/Utilities.
"Were you suggesting running disk utility on the install disk? " Yes!
" There wasn't anything to select anywhere that said Utilities/Startup Disk. " Ok, when you boot from your restore disk, you hold down the C key until you see the Apple logo on your screen. An Installer window will open. Do not proceed with any installations. Instead, from the Menu Bar (very top of your screen), select Utilities/Startup. That will open the window where you can then select your MacintoshHD 10.4 icon and click Restart. Without doing this, your Mac doesn't know disk to boot from.
"Sorry, it's been a rough week. Maybe I'm not understanding something obvious." No problem. Sometimes you just have to sit back and take a deep breath, or call it a night and work on it in the morning. I understand ... these tasks can be daunting at times.

I can't sign into iCloud because my Apple ID doesn't work there. For some reason it gave me a .mac email and I don't remember the password. When it gives me the option to reset my password, it's my Apple ID password which I don't want to do.

Restarting my Apple TV doesn't work.

Restarting my Apple TV doesn't work. Restoring my Apple TV doesn't work. I ordered the micro-USB cable from the Apple store since that's what the Apple instructions state is required to hook my Apple TV to my Power Mac. Guess what? The Belkin micro-USB 3.0 cable that just arrived after a week's wait does not fit any of the openings on the back of my Apple TV. Now I'm out $32 and still can't update my Apple TV. Now what I supposed to do?

sounds more like Bluetooth rather than moue, but w/o knowing w/o posting mac model type/year we... will... not... know... what you have
All computers are personal computers, a PC though is also "non-Apple" in common usage.
Mac also is platform and OS.
Very confused reading what you are trying to tell us.

Why did apple mail get much worse with lion osx? I can't add recipients without copy and paste?

why did apple mail get much worse with lion osx? I can't add recipients without copy and paste?

I went through updates on my three newest Macs this week. As I stated I'm talking about iTunes 10.5.1 (42). I am checking for updates now and I see 10.5.2 is now available. I'll know in about 15 minutes if this issue is fixed or not.
15 minutes later:
I must have updated this PPC G5 a day or two before iTunes 10.5.2 came out. I was able to update to 10.5.2 (11) and this copy/paste bug is fixed. I'm happy again.

If I buy an Imac in the online Apple store, would it come with Lion OS X?

If I buy an Imac in the online Apple store, would it come with Lion OS X?

Yes you will.
I believe if you'd bought one before the release of Lion you'd also get a free upgrade from Snow Leopard (or at least this used to be the case for people that bought a Leopard machine the month before Snow Leopard came out).

Apple remote doesn't work with 2011 Mac Mini

Purchased today, 8/17/2011, from Apple store new Mac Mini with Apple remote. Sucessfully paired the remote in "Security & Privacy" area, the "Disable remote" box is NOT checked.
When I press the menu button nothing happens. If I start a show in iTunes the "play/pause" buttons work but nothing else. Front Row doesn't show up anywhere. Apple rep said remote worked w/new Mini just like it does with all Mac's.
Anyone heard why it doesn't? Is this a Lion issue that Apple will remedy. Total deal killer for me, as we prefer to use the remote when watching shows
Very disappointed today

There's no FrontRow with Lion it's been discontinued ...
There's some possible work-arounds here:

Apple tv doesn't work with my receiver

I updated my apple tv 3 and now it doesn't work with my Denon AVR-591 receiver. When I called Denon they said unfortunately the firmware on my receiver doesn't update and therefore may not work with certain devices. Is this possible?

connect the atv to a tv which does support the resolution and then lower the resolution and then connect it with your tv once more
