PowerPC apps, such as Microsoft Word 2004, which cannot be updated, such as presumably your Korean version, can be run in Snow Leopard Server installed in Parallels for use in Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks:

i am a OS10.7.4 user. yesterday i bought a Lacie external hard disk but error message appear said " You cant open the applicant LaCie setup assistant because PowerPC applicants are no longer support". please help me how to connect my mac with Lacie??
You do not need the Setup Assistant; in fact, you do not need any software on an external hard drive. I have two LaCie's; I erased the drive as soon as I plugged it in. You will need to format it anyway because most hard drives come Windows formatted. So, if you only want to use it with the Mac, highlight it in Disk Utility and choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format and the GUID Partition scheme under Options. While doing that, it will erase the drive (and get rid of the LaCie software) - once finished, your drive is ready to use for Time Machine or any other backup plans you have for it.

You can't open the application NotificationExec because PowerPC applications are no longer supported
I have Lion OS X 10.7 on my MacBook Pro 15'' and I've tried to install an application for an external Maxtor hard drive.
But it seems to be compatable only with previous Operating Systems because now every 5 seconds I get the popup
"You can't open the application NotificationExec because PowerPC applications are no longer supported".
I have deleted all the applications of the external hard drive from the Applications folder, and from the trash as well.
But it doesn't help because the message is continuing to pop-up.
Please help me somehow.I had already formatted the external Maxtor external hard drive but it didn't help because the problem came when after formatting I tried to install an application (belonging to Maxtor) to the MacBook. The application was meant for an operating system previous to Lion.
The solution is to remove everything belonging to Maxtor from your Mac.
I deleted the Maxtor application from the Applications folder, but it wasn't enough. After struggling in google I found this solution and it worked!
HERE IS THE SOLUTION:
First remove all the Maxtor applications you've installed from the Applications folder (just trash them and empty the trash).
Then go to Finder and from Macintosh HD -> Library -> Driver Support -> DELETE THE MAXTOR APPSYOU FIND IN THIS FOLDER AND EMPTY THE TRASH !
But the Library folder is hidden, so if you don't know how to find it (I don't remember exactly because I did it at 1 am at night in the desperation after looking for the solutions in many forums for hours) you can go to Helpand write library, then from All Help -> what is the Library folder? and there it is explained!
Now you are free!!! -
You can't open the application "TeacherWorks" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
When I try to open an application I get this message: You can’t open the application “TeacherWorks” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. I updated my MacBook Pro to Mavericks a month ago. So I do not know what is going on. I am not good with computeres, so please if you will try to help me, please be very simple.
Thank youThere isn't really a simple answer to your dilemma.
You have discovered that there is older software that will no longer work on OS X Mavericks.
Your version of TeacherWorks was programmed to run on much older non-Intel, PowerPC style Macs that were discontinued around 2005-2006.
If your Mac was running OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard previously, Snow Leopard had a special emulator software, called Rosetta, that emulated older PowerPC hardware to allow this software to function.
This Rosetta emulator software got deleted/obsoleted from OS X with the introduction of OS X 10.7 Lion.
So, this software will no longer function.
The alternatives is to see if there are newer updates of this software that needs to be downloaded and installed.
OR if this software no longer exists or is no longer being updated, then you need to search for and seek out alternatives that are similar in features to this software.
There is a way to get your existing TeacherWorks software to work on Mavericks, but it gets involves using a special virtualization software like Parallels Desktop, VMWare Fusion or the free, open source virtualization software called virtual box to install OS X Snow. Leopard Server within the virtualization software.
You purchase, download and install this virtualization software.
And you need to call Apple at 1-800-MYAPPLE to see if you can still purchase copies of OS X Snow Leopard Server.
Once you have OS X Snow Leopard Server installed and you launch it, you can, once more, install your existing TeacherWorks software.
This is the only way to run this type of older software in OS X Mavericks.
If this is too complicated for you, if you made a backup of your previous system setup and data, all you have to so is revert to your previous system,
If you have no backup of your system or data, you need to backup, at least, your important data by either burning CDs/DVDs, copy this data to high capacity USB Flash Drives or backup to an externally connected hard drive.
Then, you need to do a complete clean install of your previous OS X version from disc, redormat the hard drive which will completely wipe your hard drive of data! and reinstall your previous OS, all of your applications and then restore all of your data.
There is no other way to do this if you have no viable backup. -
I have an early 2011 macbook pro 13" running 10.6.8, if i upgrade to osx mavericks 10.9.1 will I still be able to run powerpc applications?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Mac OS X 10.6.8 is the last Mac OS X version that supports PowerPC applications, so if you upgrade to OS X Mavericks, you will lose the ability to use PowerPC applications.
I recommend you to look for upgrades to those apps, but if you cannot or any of your apps are not available for Intel-based Macs, a different option you have is to create a second partition and install OS X Mavericks there, so you can still use your old apps by starting up into Snow Leopard. To create the partition > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html -
Im getting a constant error message: "you can't open the application PACE because PowerPC applications are no longer supported". I cant find PACE to delete it?
PACE is a rather crappy copy protection software used by the following;
Antares
Melodyne
Cycling 74 Max/MSP/Jitter
iZotope oZone
Line6 POD Farm
McDSP plug-ins (some software purchases include a green iLok key)
MOTU
Overloud
Pro Tools
Serato
Virtually all Digidesign (RTAS and TDM) plug-ins
Virtually all Waves Products
So if you have any of there, they might be the cause of your problems.

You can't open the application ASExecute because PowerPC Applications are no longer supported
I upgraded to Lion a few weeks back and everything has been working fine. Today while on internet I keep getting a message you can't open the application ASExecute because PowerPC Applications are no longer supported. It seems to happen when I am on EMusic site downloading music. I can find no reference to ASExecute on Google or on my iMac. However the music is still downloading. Should I just ignore it? Any suggestions appreciated...
maryfromgreenockI have the same problem. It ocurred for me when I was downloading emusic files through the "eMusic Download Manager" app. The files downloaded fine, but they never automatically imported to iTunes. So...I'm guessing "ASExecute" might be an app launched by eMusic manager when it finishes downloading?
Hey emusic: PowerPC code should be long gone by now!
Quicksilver: if you have no suggestions then perhaps a reply is unwarranted. -

I keep getting error message, "can't open application PACE because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." I've run Clean My Mac and I still get the error.
Use the Finder "Go" menu while holding down the option key to expose your User / Library folder.

Shortly after upgrading to version 10.7, I installed an application that was not compatable with the LION operating system. The application was for an external Maxtor hard drive that appearantly was intened for an earlier Mac operating system.
Now I get the popup "You can't open the application NotificationExec because PowerPC applications are no longer supported" about every 10 seconds.
How to I get rid of this.
There is nothing to Force Quit. The process (if it is a process) does not show up in Activity Monitor. I have also tried to use the KILLALL command but no process is found by that name.Absolutely frustrated by the same problem, just lost 3 hours of my day trying to uninstall after getting the same error message. The ONLY thing that worked for me was going to the following Maxtor (Seagate) URL:
http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/199931en
I downloaded their "remove maxtor sw.zip" file
Click here to download the remove_maxtor_sw.zip file and store it on your system's desktop.
And it worked perfectly. Took 10 seconds and - after restarting - it was done.
What a waste of the day!!! -
Please help with the message I am receving on startup ""You can't open the application NovamediaDiskSupressor because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

Please help with what I need to type, how, where, etc.
Many thanks
AppleSueIn HunterCreekI am afraid there is no solution.
PowerPC refers to the processing chip used by Apple before they transferred to Intel chips. They are very different, and applications written only for PPC Macs cannot work on a Mac running Lion.
You could contact the developers to see if they have an updated version in the pipeline. -
selling macbook Pro 2011. It came with Lion, I upgraded to mountain Lion and Mavericks. Can license be transfer to new owner? how?
Good question now that Mavericks is free to all.
It used to be - and is probably still the case - that to comply with the license you should erase and re-install the OS that came pre-installed on the Mac when new. If there were restore disks they needed to be passed on with the Mac.
I'm happy to be corrected on this by someone who's more au fait with the legalese, but an upgraded OS is tied to an AppleID whereas the original OS is tied to the computer, not an AppleID.
My guess is, that if you launched the Recovery HD, erased the drive using Disk Utility and re-installed the OS, Lion would be installed.
Be interesting to see what others say. -
System Automatically notified me of an update for Safari - told it to continue. After a few seconds, the system displayed about 12-14 error messages:

My system is:

What's going on??? This is a reoccuring problem with many updates..Your profile states Mac OS X (10.7.1) is this correct?
From the update web page this is the info
Safari 6.0.1
Note: For OS X Mountain Lion systems, Safari 6.0.1 is included with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2.

Perhaps you need to update from 10.7.1 to 10.7.5 if you can before trying to install the Safari update.
If you do update to 10.7.5, make sure you have good backups available. -
I am trying to open the application for educational software and the message You can't open the application Install because PowerPC applications are no longer supported....keeps appearing...help
The installer is for a PowerPC-based Mac, last produced in 2006.
Often, that software is just a "reader" that displays a menu of items to select from. The files themselves are in folders on the disk and you may be able to access them without using the installer. -
