How do you open an Appleworks spreadsheet (.wks) in Numbers?

Is it possible to open an Appleworks spreadsheet (.wks) in Numbers?  If it is not possible is there a file converter out there somewhere?.  The oiriginal spreadsheet was created in 2004 on a MacBook running Appleworks.

Numbers '09 (but not Numbers 3.1) should be able to open an AppleWorks spreadsheet that was saved in AppleWorks running on a MacBook. That file would have the extension .cwk, though.
.wks is the extension for Microsoft Works, and I don't know of anything else that opens those files.

    How do I open an Appleworks file now that I am running Mavericks and Pages?

    Word Processing documents can be opened directly in Pages 4 (AppleWorks 6 only) but this is no longer available - the newPages 5 (Mavericks required) does not open AppleWorks documents. Panergy Software's docXConverter v3.2 ($19.95) can convert Appleworks 5 and 6 Word Processing documents to RTF (though it has been reported that it can only handle documents which contain only text, not those which include images or frames). The latest version of the free LibreOffice has announced that it can open AppleWorks 6 Word Processing documents and an ability to open ClarisWorks documents has been reported: it does appear to be able to handle at least some embedded images.
    Draw Documents can be opened directly only in EazyDraw (the more expensive version from their website, not the cheaper one from the Mac App Store, and you will need v4.0 'Retro' not the most recent version) or Intaglio (though this appears not to be able to handle very complex drawings). LibreOffice will open simple Draw documents but I found it very unreliable with complex ones.
    Spreadsheets can be opened directly only in the older versions of  Numbers - the new version for Mavericks will not do this. The old version is no longer available.
    Presentations can be opened directly only in the older versions Keynote; again, the new version for Mavericks will not do this. The old version is no longer available.
    To use other programs, or open Database documents at all, you must export from AppleWorks first, which means you need a way to run it.
    If you have upgraded to Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks and have AppleWorks documents you cannot open, then you should be able to install Snow Leopard on an external hard disk and start from that (provided that the Mac did not come with anything higher than Snow Leopard originally installed); and success has been reported in running Snow Leopard Server under emulation in Parallels - the method is described here: Snow Leopard Server is available in the Apple Store (by telephone) at a reduced price (at the time of writing) and is preferable to using ordinary Snow Leopard which is quite tricky. I haven't tried this myself: use at your own discretion. You can then run AppleWorks as an emergency measure.

  • Opening an AppleWorks spreadsheet in Pages.

    Hi, there !
    I am puzzled. I am trying to open an AppleWorks (6.2.9) made spreadsheet with Pages and cannot. Pages does not seem to acknowledge my AppleWorks document. When I launch Pages and try to open the desired file, it does not allow me to select the file (listed but not selectable). What is evenmore puzzling is that the same procedure worked fine with wordprocessing AppleWorks documents ! So here is my question : how do I get Pages to open an AppleWorks spreadsheet document ?
    Thanks,
    iMac 700 PPC G3 SE   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   512 Mo, Airport.

    Olivier,
    I can understand why this might puzzle you. Pages will open AppleWorks word processing docs, but it will not open AppleWorks spreadsheet docs. While Pages offers a few formulae to allow limited spreadsheet functionality, it doesn't have a true spreadsheet module like AppleWorks does.
    Having said that, iWork '07 will likely be released next Tuesday at MacWorld San Francisco, and it's possible it will have a true spreadsheet application bundled with it.

  • How do you open a .cwk document in pages?

    How do you open a .cwk (the old Apple word processing program) document in Pages?

    If it's an AppleWorks 6 document, Pages 4.3 will open it. It won't open older AppleWorks documents, and Pages 5 won't open those.

  • How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer?

    How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer? I can't find a button on or below the door.  Am I missing something?  Additionally, will the K430 boot from a DVD/CD if it finds one in the DVD tray instead of the hard disk?  Please help. Thanks. 
    Solved!

    hi penguin247,
    Regarding your questions:
    1. Can you try to press the eject symbol on the DVD bay and observe if the DVD tray comes out.
    Link to picture
    2. By default, the HDD is set as the first boot device and the ODD second on the K430. You will need to change the boot order or continuously tap F12 during POST to boot from the ODD (assuming you have a bootable media inserted).

  • How do you open a PDF using Adobe Reader on your IPad in IBook?

    How do you open a PDF File using Adobe Reader on your IPad When in IBook?

    You can't. When you're in most of the PDF readers, the Share button gives you the option of Open In another app. But iBooks does not.
    You need to add your PDFs through the iTunes method which Alec wrote about here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1040579?tstart=0
    Or you can use another way of transferring your PDF to the iPad, like Dropbox. You install the Dropbox app on your iPad and copy your PDF from Dropbox (cloud application). It opens in Dropbox app and you use the Share icon to move it into Reader.

  • How do you open a PDF that comes in as a winmail.dat on an iPad2

    How do you open a PDF file that comes in as winmail.daton an iPad2?  Is there any setting that I need to turn on?  Or do i need to purchase a converter to make this work?
    Thanks,

    You could ask whoever sent it to you to resend the email, but not in rich text format : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1506
    Otherwise there are a number of apps in the store that say that they support winmail.dat (search for 'winmail.dat')

  • How do you open a multi page tif be opened in Photoshop?

    I have an embedded tif with a render, shadow layers and other channels in one tif. (Not created in Photoshop)
    I thought it was multilayered tif, but I think it's called a multi page tif.
    When I open it in Photoshop it opens the top layer/page, and none of the others. (It doesn't give the option to choose a page/layer either).
    How can you open the tif in Photoshop and still access all the layers?
    I thought it would be like opening a normal tif created in Photoshop...

    Nope. Render it again to separate files or split it in another program.

    i must be missing something really basic. How do you open previous projects in Final Cut X? When I try to open one it hangs on "loading (nameofproject) into time line.

    You need to provide more information. Are you seeing it within the FCP interface properly when you go to show the Project Library?  If so, I would click on it to select it and then open the Inspection window and click on Modify Event References and select proceed from there. I'm assuming you have not moved the project from it's proper folder....

    How do you put a signature cell in a numbers spreadsheet?

    I'm a car dealer and I created the bill of sale for my dealership in a Numbers spread sheet. I want to be able to use my iPad mini w retina for customers to sign directly on my iPad then print out the BoS with signatures on it so I can make transactions easier for my customers in case I have to meet them somewhere instead of my office. Then I would have the ability to send them another copy if they happen to lose theirs without digging thru my files to find the hard copy and scan and send it to them.
    Thanks

  • How do you open a DVD/file in another search engine

    how do you open a DVD/file in another search engine?

    Hi
    I think it is simpler than that: place DVD in computer and then try to run a video from the disk. It will not run using Safari, but I know it runs in Firefox which I have on the computer.
    I believe that I can depress one of the moifier keys while clicking an item on the application menu bar to open a menu where you can open the dvd using Firefox or another application.
    Should be simple, but yet to find solution.
