How do you run apps for PowerPC G3 processors on a PowerBook G4?

Hi!
I'm new to the Apple community, and I'm trying to run the PPC compatible version of Wine on my PowerBook G4 (which can be found here), but when I open the .dmg and open the installer, it opens an error window saying "You can't open the application 'Install Wine' because it is not supported on this architecture."
Is this because the application is meant to run on computers with a PowerPC G3 processor and mine has a G4?  How can I install it?
I have attached a screenshot of the error message.

I found this on the Wine WIKI.

PowerPC Mac
In 2002, the OpenDarwin people created the Darwine project to integrate the processor-emulator QEMU with a Mac OS-compatible version of Wine in order to run Win32 EXEs on PowerPC. The group succeeded in porting Wine from ELF to Mach-0. Integration of the x86 emulator was not worth the trouble of byteswapping (big endian <-> little endian), which was too much work.
Qemu-Darwin-user allows Mac OS X/Intel Applications to run on Mac OS X/PowerPC. It's conceptually similar to doing the opposite of Rosetta and was therefore referred to as "Attesor".
Older Macs using PowerPC processors are incompatible with code compiled for x86 (Intel and AMD) processors, unless the code is run under CPU emulation. Wine Is Not a (CPU) Emulator, nor does it include one.

    Hi JasonLuong,
    You will have to go to www.creative.adobe.com and login with your Adobe Id on which you have purchased the subscription.
    You can go to the download center and then start downloading all the cc apps available. It will first download and install the Creative cloud desktop tool in your computer. This creative cloud desktop will show you the option to download all the CC programs, the updates, etc.

  • How do you get apps for the 1st generation iPod touch

    How do I get apps for the 1st generation iPod touch?

    By updating the iOS on the iPOd.  The 1G can go as high as 3.1.3.  That works with a lot of apps.  But some apps require a higher iOS and/or newer iPod.

  • How do you run depreciation for a Particular range of assets??

    Dear Gurus,
    Assets is a fairly new area for me – I have created several new ASSETS in one of our company codes.
    I have now been asked to RUN DEPRECIATION.
    Please can you kindly let me know (Step by Step Instructions) on How to Run Depreciation for an Asset via a particular co-code?
    Your help is much appreciated.
    Thanks
    RICK

    Hi,
    If you have completed all depreciation related configs,
    then, you can use T Code AFAB, there, give the following parameters,
    Company code, Fiscal year, posting period, click on the planned depreciation run, and give the range of main / sub asset numbers in the bottom parameters for test run.
    And execute, it will post the depreciation if it is not posting, then it will give you the error log.
    While running actual run, it is advised to run in backround.
    Hope it clears you doubt.
    Regards

  • HT1338 How do you update apps for only one apple id?

    I try to update the apps that come up, but it keeps telling me I have other updates for another Apple Id as well. I am not intersted in updating those.  It won't just do the ones I need.

    The apple id login is never deleted. The emaill address itself can be disabled or not in use any longer. The apple id login will still be available to you. If you will go to the website My Apple Id
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    and use the listed apple id login that your apps are asking for to update - once you have changed the password at the lsted website you then will be able to update using the old apple id once you have logged into the device using the old apple id and password.
    Good luck.

    2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
    3. The app will fly off the screen

  • After the update I don't know how to close running apps? I recall double clicking the main button then hold one app until they begin a jiggling motion. But that no longer works.

    How do close running apps?

    You still double tap the home button and the apps are lined up across the screen. Swipe up on the app preview thumbnail - drag it up off of the screen - and that will close the app.

  • Droid 4 how do you add sounds for the alarm.

    How do you add sounds for the alarm on the Droid 4. I do not like any of the alarm clock sounds.

    In your internal storage of the phone, create a folder called alarms. Then copy or move the audio files to that folder.
    You might need to download a file explorer application from the Android Market.
    If the alarms in the root of storage doesn't work. Create a media folder, then a audio folder in that folder and then move the alarms folder in that folder.
    Or the simplest route, download the app called Ringdroid. You can use that application to set sounds as various ringtones types.

    The apps in the multitaskbar should appear like pages on the whole display. To close them, just swipe from the bottom to the top. you can select single apps for closing, when you swipe them like you would swipe your homescreens.

  • How do you record addresses for a group in contacts?

    How do you record addresses for a group in contacts?

    You can't create groups in the contacts app and even if you create a group in icloud.com, the group is useless for email purposes on the iPad. At least I have never been able to get the groups that I create in icloud.com to appears as options for emailing.
    There are third party apps that will let you do this.

    Group Email with Attachments

    There is also a workaround where you type all of the email addresses that you want to create a group for in the Notes app separated by a comma,between each address. Copy and paste that one long "email address" in the contacts app and name it whatever you like. Select that as your group when you want to send the group email.
    I Haven't done the workaround in ages, so experiment with it first. You may need to leave a space after the comma before you start trying the next email address.

    To close out apps, simply double click the home button and instead of holding down the app icons and clicking on the X mark in older versions, you have to swipe the app window up and away.
