AppleWorks quits when I try to spellcheck

I am running 10.2.8 on my mac. I have Appleworks 6.0.4. After typing in a document it and try to spellcheck it simply quits. What do you suggest?

I think the problem is that you are using AppleWorks 6.0.4. Even though you are using 10.2.8, AppleWorks 6.0.4 would be running in Classic. OS X support wasn't added until at least AppleWorks 6.1.x. It may have been later, but I can't remember since it's been so long. The earliest version stable in OS X is 6.2.4, the current version is 6.2.9. By all means, avoid 6.2.7 as it was very, very buggy. You can find the updater 6.2.4 here. You can find the most reliable link to the 6.2.9 updater on this page where you can choose the appropriate updater for your AppleWorks 6 installation. Be sure to pay attention to the two English version updaters.

  • AppleWorks quits when I try to type

    Just installed 6.2.9 on a G4 AGP running OSX 10.4.8 Tiger. When I try to type in the word processor, the program quits instantly and error message comes up. Anyone know what might be wrong? I deleted preference files and reinstalled the program twice. Still won't let me type. Everything else looks normal. I installed the program on another G4, also running 10.4.8 and it works fine.

  • Mail unexpectedly quits when I try to open the Mail Application 4.5 and system is 10.6.8

    Mail unexpectedly quits when I try to open the Mail Application 4.5.
    Any ideas how to resolve this?
    I have tried the suggestions already given on Lists, and nothing has yet worked...

    10.6.8 is not Mountain Lion.
    How big is your hard drive, and how full is it?
    Did you happen to download any system cache cleaners?  Those can damage its ability to function.
    Have you tried repairing permissions?
    Is your data backed up?
    Is Spotlight indexed?
    Is the Mail trying to load an IMAP, POP or Exchange account?

  • Any application quits when I try to print from it

    It doesnt matter which application I am in, Text Edit, Safari, or Word, they all quit when I try to access the print menu. I am using a HP 648C ink jet printer on a powermac G4. When I hook up the printer to my ibook, it works flawlessly. I've updated the drivers on the powermac but still doesn't work. I think it has something to do with the OS itself. On both machines im running OS X.4. Any ideas?

    Hi, there all.
    I have similar problem, occured after installing latest updates for Tiger.
    Any application will crash without error messages (nor log) when i select print.
    The print dialog does not show up! immidiate crash.
    So far done the following without solution.
    Repaired permissions.
    Resetted the Print center, removed all printers.
    Rebooted.
    Tried to add LPR printer again, not possible, i can type in the IP address and then im unable to select printer model (the sun is rolling on the left side seeking something? ).
    I can add Appletalk printer ok, it will show on the printers.
    Still cant print even with appletalk, selecting print on any application will crash the app i tried print from.
    FYI: all printers are network printers Appletalk & IP(lpr).
    Any help? please, urgent!

  • IPhoto 6.0.4 Quits When I Try to Empty iPhoto Trash

    iPhoto quits when I try to empty the iPhoto trash. When I reopen iPhoto, the items are still in the trash.
    1.42 GHz,G4 iBook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Try the following:
    1 - make a backup copy of your iPhoto Library folder
    2 - do some edit on the bad photo.
    3 - go to the Modified folder in the iPhoto Library folder and find the new modified file.
    4 - copy that file to the desktop.
    5 - locate the original file in the Originals folder and replace it with the new file from the desktop.
    6 - now see if you can delete that file via iPhoto.
    If that doesn't work, try deleting the original, modified and data (thumbnail) version of that file. Then rebuild the library by launching iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
    You'll always have the backup version in case these "fixes" mess things up even more.

  • IWeb quits when I try to delete a corrupted page.

    iWeb v. 1.1.2 running on OSX 10.5.1.
    I want to delete a corrupted page, but iWeb quits every time I try to select it.
    I have already been into Home>Library>Application Support>iWeb>Domain.Sites and deleted photos. Have checked Fonts and deleted duplicates, but suspect error is in the type somewhere. All other pages work, but need to delete this one before I can republish. iWeb also quits when I try to re-publish. Help very much appreciated.

    Try disabling your antivirus/antispam software.

  • My notes application quits when I try to select a note to open. I have restarted it, but no change. Suggestions?

    The notes application on my ipad quits when i try to open any one of my notes. I have restarted it a couple times with no luck.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks Alex, but sadly I already tried that. Neither .docx or .xlsx files show up in the content list. They both show as a Chrome HTML document so changing how Firefox addresses those doesn't help since it thinks its the same type of file. I don't think I can manually add files into the "Content Type" left side nav.

  • Safari quits when I try to upload pictures

    Safari quits when I try to upload pictures, specifically to my etsy site and facebook. Firefox does the same.

    First, install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo.
    It's ok to do this even if you are already running v10.6.8.
    Then restart your Mac. Try both browsers. If they both still crash,  the startup disk may need repairing.
    Launch Disk Utility. /Applications/Utilities
    Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If the startup disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks

  • TS1702 Facebook quits when i try to enter 'event' page using iPad Mini

    I have this problem with my iPad mini but my iPhone doesnt have this problem. Facebook quits when i try to enter into 'event' page in facebook and it happens few times already. Need help! Thank you so much! =)

    To prevent Firefox from displaying form autocomplete suggestions, you can turn off that feature using the about:config page.
    In the address bar, type or paste '''about:config''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
    I suggest bookmarking this for easier future access.
    In the search box, type or paste '''formf''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
    Scroll down to '''browser.formfill.enable''' and tap the Toggle button to switch it from true to false.
    That's it. Does it work on Facebook?
    ''The about:config preferences editor in the mobile version is similar in principle to the desktop version but many of the preferences available on the desktop version have no effect in mobile. This one I only tested on one site, but it seems to work.''
