Can't open Apple Works 6

Hello,
I'm not sure what happened, may be operating with too much memory being used, but suddenly I cannot open AppleWorks 6. When I click on the icon it bounces once and then nothing. At one point it told me there was an error or damage, but it stopped doing that. I tried rebooting a couple of times. What do I need to do to get it going again?
Thank you,
Rhino Rick

Can't open Apple Works docs in Pages

Strange, but: The 1st day I used Pages I could open Apple Works and Word docs
just fine. The 2nd day trying to open Apple Works docs resulted in
the message: "Import Error- the Apple Works document has an unsupported file type"
Word docs still open OK. Anyone?

To save as a "newer" AppleWorks file (i.e. AppleWorks 6 file format), you'll need to have AppleWorks 6, which will open older file formats from version 5 and then give you the option to save the as version 6 files.
However, your friend will not be able to open these AppleWorks files with Pages: as Peggy and others have pointed out on numerous occasions, Pages can only open AppleWorks word processing files (and even in this case, there are restrictions; as far as I can remember, it will only open documents with floating graphics. Or was it the other way round, and it cannot open files with floating graphics? If I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me, Peggy); it can't open spreadsheet files as iWork '05 doesn't have a spreadsheet program which could handle the data. I'd suggest finding someone who has AppleWorks 6 (anyone with a Mac mini, iMac or eMac), opening the files and saving them in a format which Excel can read.

Can not open apple store from my mac

can not open apple store from my mac

Restart your computer. If that does not work download and apply the combo updater ... Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
It won't matter if you have previously downloaded this update but the action itself has a curative effect for many settings that have gone awry.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try to launch one of the problem apps. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

I can't open my work web site it lets me go right to the login page and won't open how can I fix this

I can't open my work web site it let's me go to the login page then it won't go any further how do I fix this

To see whether this problem is caused by the new HTML5 parser feature in Firefox 4, you can turn it off like this:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''html5''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''html5.parser.enable''' to toggle it to false (it will turn bold).
Then return to your work site and reload the page.
Does that make any difference? If so, you can leave it that way. If not, you might as well switch it back (double-click that preference again to toggle it back to true.)
If not, and you need to roll back, here's the process:
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 4.
You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

Numbers 3.0.1 - Can't open file "Work.numbers"

Hello, all Community!
Here's a iWork Numbers file, edited and successful saved yesterday to local folder, named Work.numbers.
Today this file not opening anymore. Number's says: "Can't open file ..." And just one button "OK".
In system log here's next lines:
iTrancemind # tail -F /var/log/system.log | grep Numbers

What I done to try resolve this problem:
1. Checked permissions and repaired.
2. Tried to open file in iCloud web-editor - no result. iCloud says that it can't open this spreadsheet.
3. Tried to convert file via some online file type converters to xls document (i will not put link here). Converter says that I have wrong file format.
Also I tried to open file in some other programs. No luck.
That's all.
File Work.numbers has been closed correctly and was no errors. Unfortunately, we have no any backup copy of this file anywhere. I know, this is stupid, but question now: How can I repair this document? Is any repair tools for iWork files?
The file seems like has right structure.

Unzipping Index.zip is passing without errors. It has many "iwa" files with binnary content and I can't get data from it. But, data in that file is very important for one person.
Could anybody help me to resolve my problem to restore Numbers document?

Hi rabg,
I am using OS X 10.8 on a Mac. This may be different if you are using iOS.
Does Numbers'09 still exist in your Applications folder? Maybe inside a new folder? Perhaps you could use Numbers'09 to open your documents.
Regards,
Ian.

Double click on .doc file opens Apple Works not Word 98

I'm using Tiger on a 14" iBook. I have Office 98 installed which works OK running under the classic environment.
Only thing is, I can't get it to start when I double click on a .doc file.
I've been thru all the recommended stuff, select the file, "get info", change the application etc... Whatever I try, it just reverts to Apple Works. When I double click the .doc file, I get Apple Works instead of MS Word.
Has any one got any ideas? Is this because Word 98 runs under Classic?
Also, I can open a word (.doc) document by dragging it onto the dock icon for MS Word 98. But if I try the same with an Excel spreadsheet,(dragging it onto the excel icon) it doesn't work. Tiger doesn't seem to like the .xls extension. Was this extension used for something else?

This document talks about applications which may use XLS:
http://filext.com/detaillist.php?extdetail=XLS
If it was used as a Microsoft Works document, you may need to convert it to Excel first.
Not sure if Excel handles Works documents, but Appleworks does to a limited extent, and Maclinkplus by http://www.dataviz.com/ will better allow you to be able to handle files of unknown type that are spreadsheets.
To change the application a document opens under control-mouse click a document with that extension and select Open With. Select the Other... and find the application in the dialog to open with, and check "Always Open With" if you want to open all documents with that extension with a specific application.

How do I open Apple Works files?

After installing 10.7.2 I can't open my old Apple Works files anymore.

You can open AppleWorks 6 text documents with Pages; AW6 spreadsheet docs with Numbers; and AW6 presentations with Keynote.

Safari 4 can't open Apple Home Page?

Starting yesterday when Safari 4 top sites page showed me a star on the Apple Home Page thumbnail, I go to www.apple.com and get a "Slow Script" error message telling me that S4 is no longer responding for that reason. What's up with that?

Several times a day I get this message "Safari can’t open the page “http://www.apple.com/” because the server where this page is located isn’t responding."
Is it me, or is there something horrifically wrong with Safari? And before anyone asks, yes, I did restart/update/reload/redownload/delete cache/toss plist/start completely over...
...I've had so much trouble with this computer it's ridiculous. I've wiped it clean and restarted from scratch so many times it's wrong...

Can't open any work docs using pages.

Whenever i try and open a word document using pages 09 it says that "The document “223lectureslides.docx” couldn’t be opened." this happens with all documents including power point. This is really a problem because i am unable to view any assignments i have.
Help please

Don't forget that TeachText can open .DOC files. There's another thread involving .DOC files here which might give you some guidance on how to troubleshoot the problem.
Also, PowerPoint documents can be saved in a play only format (they aren't editable) and I'm not sure if those can be opened by Keynote. These have PPS and PPSX extenders if I recall properly.

Can't open Apple HD Movie trailers with Quicktime download link

Hi all,
For some reason, I can't seem to get Safari to automatically open Quicktime Player X to open an Apple HD trailer on trailers.apple.com. I can only view trailers when clicking on "Watch Now". I can also workaround this issue by righ clicking on the HD trailer links and then selecting "Open with Quicktime Player" which then allows me to view the HD trailer in QT player X. But I'd like to have that process automatic, like it used to.
Is there a quick fix for this?

After hours with try and error no solutions.
I changed now from windows with iTunes over to my Mac and surprise: It works. All videos are now playable (the same which wasn't before)
=> Windows Vista, 64Bit, Itunes 10.5.3.3 did not work
=> Same mp4 over Mac to Ipad did work.
No idea, what's going on, or is wrong on the PC.
Thanks,

Can I open and work from Microsoft excel in numbers

I used to work from my HP windows laptop and now I have just bought the MAC. I want to open and continue working on my excel spreadsheets and word files. Can I use numbers and pages or do I have to go and buy the Microsoft package again?!!

If you plan on sharing documents with other users and those other users are using Office, you would be better off to buy Office for the Mac or use one of the free open source clones of Office. While Numbers & Pages will import and export Excel and Word documents, it is not a perfect process and it can create a mess if you go back and forth from iWork to Office.

Can't open Apple mail attachments in Goodreader.

I can no longer open email attachments in Goodreader for iPad using the "Open In" button when touching the email attachment. This used to work properly until I upgraded my iPad 2 to the new iPad. When I touch the attachment, the window opens and I can see the "Goodreader" option, but nothing happens when I select it. Selecting any of the other apps listed results in the attachment opening in that application.
Anyone else experiencing this? Help!

I found the solution in another/similar thread. Delete the Stanza app from your iPad and GoodReader will appear in the "Open In" list again as it's supposed to.
I have no idea -why- this makes a difference, but it definitely worked for me.
