How to import AppleWorks files into iWork?

Can AppleWorks files be imported into iWork?

Word Processing documents can be opened directly in Pages (AppleWorks 6 only), though Panergy Software'sdocXConverter 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); and the latest version of the free LibreOffice has announced that it can open AppleWorks 6 Word Processing documents: 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). However Draw documents can be copied into WP documents and then opened in Pages - more details here.
Spreadsheets can be opened directly only in Numbers.
Presentations can be opened directly only in Keynote.
Nothing will open Paint or Database documents.
If you have upgraded to Lion/Mountain Lion 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 under emulation in Parallels - the method is described here: it seems complex; however Snow Leopard Server is available in the Apple Store (by telephone) at a reduced price (at the time of writing) and this makes the process a lot easier. I haven't tried either method: use at your own discretion. You can then run AppleWorks as an emergency measure.
There is a detailed article on 'Abandoning AppleWorks' here:

  • Can't import Appleworks files into iWork

    I recently purchased iWork 05 (and am stuck with it, since I cannot upgrade to 06) and cannot import Appleworks 6 drawing documents into either Pages or Keynote. Are the Appleworks drawing and paint functions now orphaned?

    Only AppleWorks 6 word processing documents can be opened by Pages (& I assume, by Keynote). You can do one of two things to get the content of your AppleWorks draw documents into Pages.
    1. Open the draw document in AppleWorks & copy & paste into Pages.
    2 Copy the draw elements & paste them as floating objects in an AppleWorks 6 word processing document. Inline object don't translate in my experience. And, text boxes will become uneditable objects.

  • How to Import XML file into SAP B1

    Dear All,
    I have a scenario like,
    I am receiving a XML file from a 3rd party application for the daily Creation,Update of Item Master,BP Master, Marketing Documents. I want to import this file into SAP B1 through its approp objects. I understand DTW has limitation in its file types (Semicolo,Tab,Comma,ODBC). How do i do this ? Please guide me.
    Thanks,
    Thanga Raj K

    Hy folks,
    I´m frim Brasil and I've been studying the tool EFM (Eletronic File Manager) to learn more about it!
    There I saw that we can extract to XML "any" infomation from the database we want, mainly through the GEP.
    However, as I've seen, this Add-On can not import any XML file into SBO, unless for the BFP wich can be imported in conjunction with the BTHF Add-on.
    So I ask: how is it possible to import XML data into SBO database? Is it possible to be done through the EFM? or  it´s really necessary to write a code specifically to do that?
    Besides, I know that de B1iSN fit to this necessity... but when I tried to use it, by the custom "object" for BP, for example, there are some data wich the mapping conteined in this custom "process" that can not be imported... I tried to understand how to map those other fields not imported by the custom but this has been dificult to me as I am a implementation consultant focused in administrative process not on development...
    Could you please help me with this subject!
    Thanks a lot,
    Denis

  • How to import .mpg files into FCE ?

    I have succesfully installed the MPEG StreamClip & flip4mac into my iMac. So now I can both play wmv files on my iMac as well as importing wmv files into iMovie & FCE.
    But now I have another problem:
    1) How do I play mpg files on my iMac ?
    2) How do I bring import mpg files into FCE ?
    Thank you.

    QTPro gives you many more capabilities than the free player, but I don't think you need it to do anything you've described. You DO need the MPEG-2 Playback component. I'd start there, then see if you need any of the options provided by QTPro.
    Hi there,
    I have purchased the MPEG-2 Playback component from the Apple Store.
    I can now convert the mpg files to mov using the MPEG StreamClip.
    However, I cannot playback the original mpg files using QuickTime Player. I can only playback the original mpg files if I click on the mpg file then goto more info & change open with MPEG StreamClip.
    But how do I open with QuickTime MPEG-2 playback ? I do not even know where the OS installed the MPEG-2 Playback component to ?
    Thanks

  • How to import .exe files into Captivate

    I have some Flash .exe files that I want to import into
    Captivate so I can combine the files....and also so I can choose
    the properties for the files (for example, either to run on a loop
    or also to take to a website upon completion).
    So, how do I import .exe files into Captivate?

    Hi Steve
    Unless you can find some sort of a converter out on the web,
    I think you are out of luck. I am aware of the SoThink SWF
    decompiler (
    http://www.sothink.com/product/flashdecompiler
    ) but I'm somewhat doubtful it will work on .EXE files. Perhaps it
    will.

  • How to import Flac files into itunes

    Hi there,
    the title say it all. How can I import Flac files into Itunes?
    I have a lot of them. I click onto add to library select the flac file, click on open and nothing happen.
    Many thanks for your help.
    regards

    Hello CESNET the best bet is to try http://blowintopieces.com/fluke/ I myself don't use Flac files but to any audiophile it's important to hear sound at it's best. Also WAV or AIFF & ALAC you will need to use http://tmkk.hp.infoseek.co.jp/xld/index_e.html to convert into ALAC.
    P.S. their is also a simple FLAC player but can't remember it one more thing converting FLAC to WAV will not give you full TAGs. Best bet is to try just one file you've copied ether straight into iTunes or convert & see what's best for you.

  • How to import Dropbox files into iPhoto?

    I have more than 1000 JPEG files in 3 different subfolders under the DropBox Pictures folder. I want to use them in some apps that only work with photos on the camera roll. I can find all kinds of advice on how to get individual files into the camera roll but I haven't found any on how to do multiple files in a batch. I'm assuming I need to go through iPhoto. I'm not very familiar with it because I seldom use the camera. I work mainly with JPEG files from external sources. I'm running IOS 7.1.1 on an iPad Air. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

    I don't know whether to be more irritated with Apple for not providing a batch mechanism or with the app developers for restricting their input to the camera roll (unless that's an Apple requirement).
    The lack of a batch mechanism is annoying, but the restriction to the Camera Roll is built deep into the saftety restriction for IOS devices. Apps are restricted to their "Sandbox", and the Camera Roll is the central sharing place for photos on iOS devices. There is no way to circumvent this.
    Maybe, your problem to get the photos into the Camera Roll is due to using Dropbox and not one of Apple's own provided tools to transfer the photos,  see the list of possibilities to transfer photos between devices. For example, Photo Stream would save the photos automatically to the Camera Roll. Or use iTunes Photos sync.
    http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnka7d353af
    Once you can make iPhoto see the photos in an album, you can batch-save them to to camera roll: (http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkee26bc1f)
    Save photos to the Camera Roll on your iOS device
    Tap a photo, album, or event and tap the share button > Camera Roll.
    Tap Selected, or change the photos you want to save:
    Select different photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap up to 100 photos, and tap Next.
    Select a range of photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
    Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
    Tap Done.
    To use your photo in another app, open the app and select the Camera Roll album.

    First i exported the "static files" from a workspace.

    Hello Sally,
    First, I have only heard/read good things about the book Steve recommends. It is on my to buy list one day. Been awaiting a long deserved vaction to pick it up to read.
    I approach XML files pretty much like I do any text file I am sent in that I will import or copy/paste a text file into a frame in ID and begin setting my styles. With XML, though, I first clean it up, move closing tags up to their logical close lines, remove spurious codes that mean something in HTML but don't necessarily belong in the XML file (like &#x2019 which is an apostrophe so I do a search and replace. But for &#xA0; which is a non-breaking space I simply search and replace with a regular space in general), and make sure the XML validates.
    Validation is much like making sure an HTML page is formed properly. I use an XML editor (XML BluePrint) and a text editor (UltraEdit) for these tasks. If I had to only have one or the other, I suppose the XML editor is what I would use.
    I always show the import options when I import the XML and make sure that I link to the file.
    So once a sample of the XML is on a page in ID (via File | Import XML), I highlight text within a tag, say like in your example above, the Providor name, and make it like I want and then create a new style. I generally name the styles as per the XML tag. Later on, that makes mapping tags to styles a little easier.
    Once I set up all the styles preliminarily, I map the tags to styles. You can do that either via the Tags palette or via the Structure Pane that will appear once the XML is imported. In both cases, it is found via the flyout menu at the top right of their respective windows.
    After mapping my styles to the tags, I select the root element in the Structure Pane (the topmost element. In your sample above it is "providors" and delete it. This removes the XML in your ID file. But the styles and tags are still present.
    Then I import the XML again and look to makes sure all the tags/elements are styled as intended. I then correct any errors/ommissions. Then...I'll delete the XML again and import the full XML file.
    I can upload what I did with your XML sample above so you can compare it to your source file if you would like. You would then see how/where I moved tags. Now, moving the tags is only "necessary" to avoid all the extra blank paragraphs. That can be accomplished by ID's search/replace, too. But I like to start out with the XML cleaned up, so I take the few minutes to do it.
    Take care, Mike

  • [Multisim]How to import data files into Multisim?

    Hi guys,
    In Multisim, we can plot various kinds of graphs, which again can be export to data files like *.csv. I have a csv file, which contains data in X and Y axes. How can I import this data file into Multisim, and make it displayed in a graph?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    The Piecewise linear source (PWL) accepts data as voltage or current vs. time. You can find this part by selecting Place>>Component, go to the "Sources" group then select "Signal voltage sources". Place this part on the work area, double-click on it and there should be an option to open a .txt file.

  • How to import .iaf files into Outlook 2011 for mac?

    I exported emails from Outlook Express (PC) to .iaf files years ago and now need to access them on a mac. I have downloaded Office for mac 2011 but can't work out how to import them into Outlook 2011.
    Can it be done? Any suggestions would be hugely helpful.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    We can import .iaf files in Outlook 2010 using the following method:
    Start Outlook 2010.
    On the File menu, click Import and Export.
    Click the Advanced tab, and then click Export.
    Click Import Internet Mail Account Settings, and then click
    Next.
    Follow the Internet Connection Wizard to complete the import process.
    But, I don't know if we can do this in Outlook for Mac 2011. Since this forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook for Windows, it's better to post Mac related issue to the forum for Mac:

    ITunes will not import nor play Windows Media Audio files. If they're not copy-protected, though, you may be able to convert them with EasyWMA (freeware) or Sound Converter ($10.00 US).

  • How to import dmg files into imovie

    Hi,
    I copied home movies that were on DVD's onto my desktop. They all came in as a dmg format. How do I get these into imovie so I can start creating projects using the various footage from them?  Help!  Thanks!

    Ah you didn't mention that you had a Video DVD, that's an important bit of information.
    A DVD that was made to be played on a DVD player has a very different format form one made for a computer. In order to access the content of the DVD o you will need to convert or rip the DVD. Please realize that if the DVD is a commercial DVD (or a copy of one) then it is protected by DRM and you will not be able to rip it and also it is against the TOU here on ASC to discuss the ripping of commercial DVD's. Apple will pull your account here is that is the case.
    So with that in mind you can rip the DVD using something like HandBrake
