ClarisWorks opens AppleWorks documents - how to fix this?
I have both AppleWorks and CarisWorks for Mac OS 9.2.2. I want AppleWorks to open my documents when I double click on them, but instead it opens ClarisWorks. All of those documents were created in AppleWorks before I wiped my system clean. Is there something I can set in Claris Works to not assoscaite files or something?
There is no need to have two versions of AppleWorks 6 installed. Although I do for a couple of reasons, it's not something I recommend for the average user. Beginning with OS X support in AppleWorks 6.2, the application is actually a package & has both Classic & OS X versions in one. The one for the system you are running at the time will launch, you don't have to do anything special. One package contains 6.2.3 & 6.2.4, another contains 6.2.8 & 6.2.9.
As I said before, your Mac should try to open the files with the newest version, 6.2.8/6.2.9, but ClarisWorks 1 is so old. Even though I do occasionally use Classic, I don't remember enough about OS 9 to advise on setting the default program for opening files. I can understand keeping ClarisWorks/AppleWorks 5 but what does ClarisWorks 1 have that you need?

Does anyone know, how to fix ' This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the applikcation vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package." ?
At what point in the process are you getting this message? Have you tried downloading a fresh copy of the iTunes setup file from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ ?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

When I open a pdf in acrobat 9 or reader there is no toolbar on top. Anyone know how to fix this?
If it's just particular documents and not all documents, you can deselect the following user preference: Edit > Preferences > Documents > Allow documents to hide the menu bar, toolbars, and window controls

Hello. When trying to forward a multiple page PDF document, only the first page appears. Does anyone know how to fix this. TY
Are you sure? I believe the mail program only previews the first page for you, but sends the whole attachment. Try opening the attachment (e.g., select and hit spacebar for a preview of the whole thing, or by double-clicking it, or control-clicking then "Open...") You should see the whole document.

my windows(8.1 64bit) partition is read only from the mac(yosemite) side of things. Anybody have a clue on how to fix this? Also, slightly frustrating as well, windows crashes every time I attempt to open a file from the mac partition.
All Office applications will also try to open a temporary work file in the same location as the source file. This implies the source file directory also needs to be writable for this temporary file. Since the default HFS+ driver provides only read-only access, such temporary files will fail to open, and will cause the application to fail.
As a test copy the file you want to edit, say an Excel spreadsheet from the OSX file system to the C: drive on the Windows side and try to open it. If you look in this directory, you should see two files, the source and a temporary file. You may have to force the temporary file to be opened on a read-write file system, by manipulating the folder for temporary files. -

My email is crashing every time I open it. Any idea how to fix this?
1 day ago my iPhone started crashing every time I opened my email. I've tried deleting suspicious emails (quickly before it crashes) but that didn't work. I went out to the web server and deleted the same emails and that didn't fix it either. I've restarted my phone and my phone is up to date on updates. Any suggestions on how to fix this? It's also now happening on my iPad and my husband's iPhone.
Hi, I finally got it fixed and I think that I figured it out. I am sure it was a bid emial that got onto my server so I went to (For Me) comcast.net and cleared my server of all the emails then plugged my phone in and backed it up and then reset it to original settings. That solved all the problems and have not come back. Hope this helps. Phil
