Can't install LearningCompany apps & others...

Just got a new Mac Pro, and I can't seem to install a series of disks, all of which claim to be compatible with Mac OS 7 or later:
Simon & Schuster Typing Tutor
Schoolhouse Rock 3rd & 4th Grade
Learning Company Reader Rabbit Personalized Math 6-9
I Spy School Days
Behavior is the same - the CD icon appears, but nothing launches. And double clicking any obvious files in the disk just gets "You cannot open the application because it is not supported on this system." dialog.
Is Mac OS X not backward compatible for things like this?
Thanks!

You cannot use applications written for Mac OS 9 and earlier systems on a Mac Pro without use of an emulator such as SheepShaver or Basilisk; a list of emulators is available on this page.

  • How can I install iPhone apps other than Amercan one?

    I have a iTune account in the US, but I want some FREE Japanese apps. In order to download apps, I need to log in, which means iTune store took me to the US store. I don't have Japanese credit card, so I won't be able to create another account.
    Is there any way I can download international apps?

    There is not. You must purchase/download applications from the store in which your country is located.

  • I get error 0x80073cf9 now and I need help to FIX Windows Store can't update any Apps & can't install any Apps now?

    Hi I hope some one can tell me step by step how to fix windows 8.1, I can't update any of my Apps and can't install any new apps now and I get error code 0x80073cf9?  But my problem is different than most of the other FIXES I read about, because nothing
    fixes my problem to be able to install new Apps and get app updates and stop getting that error code?
    I keep getting same error code 0x80073cf9 after I try any of the FIXES I have read about and tried all  the fixes on  my Lenovo Z580 laptop, that came with windows 8 and updated to 8.1.  And ever since I bought this laptop I could
    always install and update all my apps for the last year when I had Win 8 and Win 8.1 now.   This has been going on since April and May and its driving me crazy!    And from the May updates I did get all the updates and
    I also installed the KB update  that said I need this KB to get all updates in the future.  
    But all the other people when they get this error code they could not even open and use any of their Apps already installed.  And they also get the error code when they try to update or get a new apps.   
    But I can click on any APP installed already and use all my Apps with no problems.     I have read so many how to fix this error code but nothing works! :-(      I have tried a lot of 
    the fixes on Microsoft forums that says do this and the fix will get rid of the error code but I keep getting the same error code after I try that  fixes.    And I have read a lot of other windows 8 an windows 8.1  web sites when
    I search for how to fix this error code?   And tried all of the fixes that were different from the Microsoft forum fixes. But after I try those fixes I still can't install any apps or can't get my app updates? 
    Please to any person's who can help me by giving me  more that 1 fix, because I have tried so many fixes, If you know more that 1 fix tell me how to do your fix step by step so I can understand what you say to do to fix my windows store? 
    Thanks for any and all help?  And if I don't get any help in this section of the forum I will try to put this in a different area, if I don't get any help at this section of the forum I will try to ask this in another part of he forum ok?   
    I really need HELP with this so I can get my laptop working again to install new apps and get the updates to my apps? 

    Fixed the problem by going to settings/store and logging out with apple ID.  Then logged back in with password and updates, apps, and iTunes store seem to work ok now.

  • Can I install purchased apps on more than one iPad that i own?

    Yes, you can install them on more than one device.

  • How can I install ipad apps on iphone 6 plus?

    How can I install ipad apps on iphone 6 plus?

    If it's an app made only for iPad, you can't.  Some developers make apps which will work on both devices (the + sign in the download button indicates).  Some apps are made specifically for one device, and there may be separate versions for each device (so you have to pay twice!).  You can install an iPhone-only app on an iPad (but it usually doesnt look great), but you cannot put a phone-only app on an iPad.

    Try spotlight searching it:
    - on your homescreen drag your finger down the screen
    - type in "App Store" in the search bar
    If the App Store still does not show make sure you have not got restrictions enabled on it.
    - go to settings>general>restrictions
    - make sure installing apps is "On"

  • My I pad is not connected to I tunes. I can't install any app. What could be the proble?

    My I pad is not connected to I tunes. I can't install any app. What could be the proble? Whenever I try to open app store it ggives me message that I cannot conect o I tune.

    Hello Marwasambo,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    If the steps above didn't resolve your issue, be sure that your specific alert isn't listed as a possible iTunes Store error. Then, if your issue is still unresolved, follow these steps.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Windows Phone 8.1 "Can't Install Company App" Error

    I'm using VS2013 Update4 to build a Windows Phone 8.1 application.  I can deploy the app from Visual Studio with no problem.  My developer phone is unlocked.   My company
    has a certificate from Symantec.  I have the pfx file.  We don’t want to use the Windows store. 
    I am simply trying to test that the appx file can be installed (sideloaded?). 
    I've followed the Microsoft guidelines to optimize and sign the appx file.  I've created an aetx file from the pfx.  I put the aetx file and the appx file on the phone.  I tap the aetx file and it says : "Add
    workplace account?” Would you like to add the workplace account for the xxx Company?" 
    I click add and nothing really happens (I'm not sure what should happen).  Then I tap the appx file and it says :  "can’t install company app". 
    Any suggestions?  Thanks!

    This appears to be a signing issue of some sort.  Our Symantec certificate is registered to the company name, which is 4 words with spaces in between the words.  If I understand correctly, the  Identity in the appxmanifest must match this
    name on the certificate.
    However, according to  msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/br211441.aspx 
    the identity must be
    A string between 3 and 50 characters in length that consists of alpha-numeric, period, and dash characters.
    Does anyone else have a space in their company name?  How do you fix this?  Thanks!

  • After restoring my new iPhone5 I can't install my apps onto it from iTunes.

    After restoring my new iPhone5 I can't install my apps onto it from iTunes.

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Also, for not enough space, remove from your iTunes library media that is on the iPod that yo do not need so it can't be restored to the iPod

  • I can't install any apps on my phone

    I bought a new cellphone and I can't install any app on my iPhone 5s !
    I go to abroad , I had installed viber on my iPhone 4 , 2years ago but now I couldn't install again it on my iPhone 5s
    Could you help me?

    Asha 501 isn't supporter by Nokia suite, so you can't install apps from PC like any other Nokia phone.
    You aren't able to access Nokia store via Wifi as well?. I would suggest a phone settings reset, you *will* lose data stored on the phone so backup before you decide to reset it.
    If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

    You have an iPad 1 which can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. If the Apps in question require iOS 6 or later you won't be able to install them.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Are you running any anti-viral software or a firewall? Little Snitch?
