AW 6.2.8 Assistants won't respond

I've been using this AppleWorks App since I've had the computer. O.K. it originally had AW4 that I installed and I gradually upgraded as necessary. When I open the application, I can use any task I want until I get to stationary assistants. I click on a task (eg. Business Cards) and my computer just sits there. The cursor moves but I can't do anything else. I have to force reboot the system. Disk Check engages and finds nothing wrong. I can do presentations and open saved documents. I have the AW6 CD-ROM but it doesn't correct the problem.
Please advise.

Hi Dreamweaver,
Welcome to the AppleWorks forum.
Have you moved the AppleWorks 6.app file out of the AppleWorks 6 folder? The Assistants folder (and the rest of the folders that came with AW) must be kept in the same (AppleWorks 6) folder as the application.
Beyond that, when AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, a good place to start is this post in the User Tips Library:
http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=600823&messageID=607287
For other AppleWorks tips, go to the User Tips Library (at the bottom of the Discussions page) and search "kaw"
Regards.

  • My middle button seems stuck and won't respond. Help?

    My middle button for the iPhone 3GS seems stuck or sticky and won't respond. Voice control keeps popping up because the iPhone thinks I am pushing the middle button to make it do the voice control. Any advice on what to do?

    stoughie,
    I'm sorry to hear that your phone is having data and power issues. That's never awesome! smashogre had a great tip, too. I hope it has worked for you. If not, I do recommend an alternative reset to return the phone to the factory settings. If after these steps, it still isn't functioning properly, please direct message me so I can assist you further.
    Thank you,

  • The App Called Line Won't Respond Sometimes.

    Hello,
    I downloaded from the play store the app called Line. Its a chat app. But sometimes out of nowhere it freezes get black and a pop up say "the application won't respond shut the application now"?. Then i click OK, and it will close. After that i can open it normal and works again.
    Any idea why this happens? I reinstalled it, and restarted my phone several times...but still getting this one time per day...
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have sent an email to them, they replied me back but i think this is a automatic message. I could figure this out myself too...i am dissapointed though...
    If an application won't respond can this damage the inside of the phone or damage the processor? I really need this app...
    First my message and second the one replied back to me:
    I have downloaded the latest version of Line on my new Sony Xperia Z1. Many times each day i get a crash. When opening the app it will freeze and turn into black. A pop up appears saying the application won't respond. Then i need to click OK to shut the application down. I tried reinstalling it and deleting caches but this didn't help.Can this please be fixed?

  • ITunes won't open and when it does it won't respond

    No error message appears when it won't start - if I try to end the process in task manager, iTunes will open but it won't respond. It'll just have the loading cursor whenever I mouse over iTunes. I've tried opening in Safe Mode and that's worked before but now it still won't respond. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it too.

    sounds like you got a bad copy uninstall it and download a new one from itunes.com

  • Bottom of my ipod screen won't respond, so i reset factory settings as suggested, it didn't help and now i can't log in to itunes as my apple id password has numbers in it

    few issues here. firstly, the bottom section of my ipod touch 4th gen won't respond. it'll let me slide to unlock but not tap anything, including to change between keyboards which brings me onto my second problem. i did a factory reset because a few people on here had suggested it, but now i can't log into my apple account because my password has numbers in. is there a way to bypass this requirement? or fix my ipod? i can't afford a replacement

    jeez guys thanks for the help!

  • HT1476 I can't tell if my ipod touch 3rd gen is really charging. I have it plugged in, but it will sometimes show the charging icon and then it won't respond to anything. I ddon't know if you need itunes to be on your computer to charge it.

    Ok, so I plug in my touch 3rd gen and I can't tell if it is really charging. It doesn't seem like it is. I can only see the charging icon sometimes, and then after the icon goes away, the ipod won't respond! I'm not sure what to do. Than I thought the USB port was messed up because it doesn't always work, but I plugged it into a diferent port and it said on the ipod, charging isn't supported with this accessory.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • My ipod touch won't respond. Shortly after I downloaded IOS 8, it quite responding. How can I get my pictures recovered?

    My ipod touch won't respond. Shortly after I downloaded IOS 8, it quite responding. All I get is the Apple sign.  I connected to my computer and tried updating and was able to download the USB connection for the device but received an error when it tried to update the ipod. Is there any way to retrieve my pictures from the device before I try to recover? At this point my pictures are more valuable to me than restoring the device.  How can I get my pictures recovered?
    Now it looks like I have the Apple with an line under it on the screen, but still not responsive.

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • 1st Generation iPod Touch (8GB) won't respond.

    Hi,
    I have a 1st Generation iPod Touch (8GB) and it won't respond to anything.  I tried restoring and resetting and charging.  When I plug the iPod into my Mac (10.2 Macbook Pro) the iTunes (which is very up-to-date) won't even recgonize it.  My computer doesn't even recognize it as a storage unit.  I tried all of the USB ports and multiple cables but stil, nothing is happening.  I can't even get the screen to turn on and display the apple.
    What should I do? Is the battery dead or is my iPod completely dead?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

  • Boot Camp Assistant won't work - keeps asking me to use Software Update.

    I am trying to use Boot Camp to install Windows but my Boot Camp Assistant won't work - it keeps asking me to use Software Update. So, even though I know everything is up to date, I start Software Update and it confirms that indeed everything is up to date. I try Boot Camp Assistant again, but the same message appears. I search every possible Boot Camp upgrade to download from Apple but they are all .exe files and need Windows to run, so those don't seem to be what I need. So I am caught in a circle of nothing working. Figures - the ONE weekend I need to install Windows and use a Windows-based program!!! And of course Apple support is closed over the weekend - another great asset to spending thousands of dollars on a product. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

    I too am having a similar problem. I am trying to install Windows in a newly created Boot Camp partition. I have Windows 7 but Boot Camp Assistant only mentions XP and Vista. I put in my installation disk of Windows 7 but it refuses to install it. My OS is fully up to date.

  • Boot Camp Assistant won't read my windows 7 professional installation dvd, HELP!!

    Hi Guys,
    For some reason Boot Camp Assistant won't read my Windows 7 Professional x64 Installation DVD? It appears in Finder, however there is only 1 readme.txt file on the disc in Finder. I had Boot Camp set up and working on my Macbook for almost a year but had to remove it and start again, so I can't understand why all of a sudden it can't seem to load any Windows DVD's? I even tried my Windows 7 Home Premium disc but again, the same message keeps popping up that I need to insert my installation disc and wait a few seconds for it to be recognised
    Can someone pretty, pretty, possibly please help me out here in some way?
