Word Processing documents can be opened directly in Pages 4 (AppleWorks 6 only) but this is no longer available from Apple - the new Pages 5 (Mavericks required) does not open AppleWorks documents. (The older version is contained in the iWork '09 box set which may still be available from Amazon and other independent retailers.) 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 from Apple. (Again, the older version is contained in the iWork '09 box set which may still be available from Amazon and other independent retailers.)
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 from Apple. (The older version is contained in the iWork '09 box set which may still be available from Amazon and other independent retailers.)
Nothing will open Database documents. You would need to export the data as ASCII and import it into another database program; you will lose your formatting and calculations will come over as the result, not the calculation.

  • Okay, just tell me now that Mavericks does not support iMovie 6 HD which I have migrated across my devices since it first came out as iMovie 4. If this is true, then I will just jump off the nearest bridge, as I use it as a business.

    Okay, just tell me now that Mavericks does not support iMovie 6 HD which I have migrated across my devices since it first came out as iMovie 4 and have supplemented with third party add ons from 3Gee. If this is true, then I will just jump off the nearest bridge, as I use it for my videography business. Since upgrading to Mav, I can not get the program to launch and am getting no pop up to tell me what is going on. It let me open and start a project at first, but then I was half way through and it crashed and I lost everything and now will not launch at all. Does anyone out there still use this magnificent program? Please help—the wedding I just commissioned is on hold and I am not want looking forward to facing a bridezilla.

    right now just to get yer work done, get ahold of any OS that will run iM6HD and get it done. then dump MAVRICKS (wait till 10.9.2 at least) and retro back to OSX 10.6..or 10.7 (if you have it). I use FCExpress4 on 10.6....you might want to consider keeping a dedicated mini or something that ONLY runs your editing sw. I have 2 older machines that I will never upgrade because the editing SW wont run on the newwer OSs.
    abuve all, be honest with your client. we all got kind of blindsided by this initial relese (like a bug infested matress).
    ask if they have any apple stuff that has Mavricks probs. bridzillas only happen when they are out of the loop. Keep them informed. but ...also be ready to duck.
    hope this helps.

    Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
    Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

    You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
    1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
    2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

  • Getting messages that Safari does not support gmail. I use OS X 10.6.8 with all current software updates. Fix?S X 6.

    Keep getting message saying current version of Safari does not support gmail, but I seem to have latest version (5.0.5). Is there an update I need?
    Poroblem goes away when I use Chrome.

    Several older browser versions and ones that won't be upgraded without
    a major system upgrade (a new OS X, if one is supported in hardware)
    get similar messages when using Gmail & perhaps other google access.
    If you want to experiment a little and the cost is zero, see the iCab browser
    that is shareware but runs free with annoying prompt to buy a license, that
    can be set to appear as Safari 6 to various web sites including Gmail. I've
    tried it, and that does work. The iCab version that I found helpful works in
    either PPC or Intel Mac OS X 10.5 ~ 10.7, there is a later version, too.
    There is a recent iCab v.5.5 or an older iCab 5.1.1, since you could use
    the more recent, I'd suggest that version over the older one which I have.
    See http://www.icab.de/dl.php for iCab 5.5 (30.10.2014  or note a direct
    DL link to that, here: iCab_5.5_Intel.zip -- either version is 32/64 bit.
    Hopefully you can use the additional options without an OS X upgrade
    to later system such as Lion. Sometimes an upgrade goes fine, but
    there are good reasons to make a fully bootable clone on external HDD.
    Then you could revert to a working copy of what you had before upgrade.
    PS: If you are seeing two Safari versions in the Application folder, you
    could use Get Info on each (separate, highlight one at a time) to find
    what one is newest; then put the older one in Trash. Do not delete it yet.
    The icon for Safari in the Dock may need to be replaced by dragging
    the new Safari into the Dock, after dragging the old icon out of it...
    but generally that part should not be necessary if only one Safari is
    in the Applications folder. Be sure to not leave an app in the desktop
    when it should be found by OS X in the Application folder.
    The newer Safari should be in the Applications folder. Is it?
    Check the Downloads folder in the Dock, to see where it went.
    Sometimes, the browser's download info will show a history;
    you can choose where downloads get stored.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, but when I click on the free download, it says that Apple does not support this application, so I cannot use it.  This stops me viewing quite a few interesting things.  Any ideas?

    I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, and when I click for a free download it says that "it is not available for your device because of restrictions that Apple has put in place".  Any suggestions on how to overcome this?

    Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus it would be up to Adobe to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, something which they have never managed to do and which they have now given up on trying to do.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter and Puffin 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so your could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app).

  • I've just upgraded to "Lion" from "Snow Leopard" which to my surprise does not support "Appleworks" I've used Appleworks for a number of years for all correspondence etc. and need to continue using this software. Do I need to go back to Snow Leopard?   d

    I've just upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard and to my surprise it does not support my 'Appleworks' application software. Ihave used Appleworks for all correspondence for six years and need to refer to the files (letters etc.) from time to time. Is my only option to revert back to Snow Leopard?

    The reason appleworks no longer runs is because it is a powerpc based application.  Since it's end-of-life in 2007, it was never converted to intel architecture, since it was dropped as a supported product.  It continued to run on intel machines via rosetta, but OS X Lion formally discontinues all support for powerpc based programs.  Powerpc based applications can only be run on OS X 10.6.8 or earlier releases (ones that still support rosetta).
    So, it does sound like your best option is to move to iWorks' Pages now - otherwise you will be stuck with an increasingly more outdated operating system.  And if you should buy a new machine, it would not run the older versions of OS X anyway, so at some point you have to leave appleworks behind and move on.  Seems best to do it now, before Pages perhaps also moves forward to a point where it too may no longer support ancient file formats.

  • I read that Lion will not support my Quicken and/or Appleworks.  How am I going to use my financial data and my documents?

    I have read that Lion will not support Quick and/or Appleworks.  How am I to continue to use my financial data and documents?

    I posted this answer to the same question about AppleWorks in the AppleWorks community two days ago.
    I use iWork. The iWork applications - Keynote, Pages & Numbers - can only open AppleWorks 6 presentation, word processing & spreadsheet documents, respectively. They will not open any other type of AppleWorks 6 files or any AppleWorks 5 or any version of ClarisWorks files.
    The third-party application, EazyDraw, can open AppleWorks draw documents. If you still have access to AppleWorks you can copy the contents of draw documents, paste them into an AppleWorks word processing document in object mode (click the arrow in the tool panel), save the WP document & then open it in Pages. You can copy & paste from AppleWorks to Pages but you would have to do it object by object or it will be one big uneditable object. Check Yvan Koenig's iDisk for many AppleScripts he has written to make conversion easier. Most are made to do batch conversions.
    There is nothing other than AppleWorks that can open paint or database documents. Database data can be copied & pasted into an AppleWorks spreadsheet, saved & opened in Numbers or saved as ASCII/plain text & opened in most any spreadsheet, database or word processing program. Paint documents can be saved as one of many different formats to be opened in most image editing programs. I recommend using PICT or PNG for best results.
    For a replacement for Quicken, I've narrowed my choices down to SEE Finance, Moneydance or Jumsoft's Money. I need to work with them more before I make my final decision. Mac | Life suggests SEE Finance as the best option.

  • The requested operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server does not support the required transaction interface.

    I am getting the following error when attempting to INSERT the results of an "EXEC(@MDXQuery) at SSAS LinkedServer":
    The requested operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server does not support the required transaction interface.
    Here is code that illustrates what I am doing:
    DECLARE @MDX varchar(max);
    SET @MDX='
    SELECT
    [Measures].[Extended Service Count]
    } ON COLUMNS,
    NON EMPTY [Organization].[By Manufacturer].[Manufacturer]
    ON ROWS
    FROM (
    SELECT
    {[Organization].[Org Tree].&[2025],[Organization].[Org Tree].&[2040]} ON 0
    FROM [MyCube]
    /* Test 1 */
    EXECUTE(@MDX) at SSASLinkedServer;
    /* Test 2 */
    DECLARE @ResultsB TABLE (
    Manufacturer varchar(255)
    , ExtendedServiceCount float
    INSERT INTO @ResultsB (Manufacturer, ExtendedServiceCount) EXECUTE(@MDX) at SSASLinkedServer;
    Test 1 succeeds, returning expected results, and Test 2 fails returning the error mentioned above.
    Other articles I've found so far don't seem to apply to my case.  I am not creating any explicit transactions in my code.   When I use OPENQUERY, I am able to do the insert just fine, but not when I use EXEC @MDX at LinkedServer.
    Unfortunately in some variations of the query, I run into the 8800 character limit on OPENQUERY, so I need to use this other approach.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Tab,
    In this case, SQL Server Analysis Services doesn’t support Distributed Transactions by design. Here is a similar thread about this issue for your reference, please see:

    One workaround is that use SQLCMD to execute the EXEC AT command and saved the results to a file, then import using SSIS.

  • Has anyone found software to use in place of Adobe? I need it deserate                                                                                                             ly. If I knew that it was not supported, I would not have purchased the ipad

    Does anyone know of software that can be used instead of Adobe? I did not know that ipad does not use Adobe, or I would never have purchased an ipad. I am very disappointed, since now I really have no need for it since all that I use needs Adobe.

    Adobe is a company, not a software product.  Do you mean you need Flash ?  Reader ?  If the site you're going to requires Flash, see if there is an app from that site in the App Store. 
    Otherwise, as Jim suggested, if you MUST have Flash, then the iPad was the wrong product for you to purchase.  If you're still within the 14 day return period, you could go that route.

    I configured MySQL in TestStand and making a query in TestStand like this:
    Command :=> "SELECT *  FROM crc_table ; " or  "SELECT CRC_Value  FROM crc_table ; " returns the total number of records without any errors.
    But when I add the "where" clause
    "SELECT crc_table.CRC_Value  FROM crc_table where crc_table.File_ID= Locals.File_ID and crc_table.Version_ID = Locals.Version_ID and crc_table.Link_ID = Locals.Link_ID; "
    I get the error as:
    Error, The following SQL command failed: 'SELECT crc_table.CRC_Value FROM crc_table where crc_table.File_ID= Locals.File_ID and crc_table.Version_ID = Locals.Version_ID and crc_table.Link_ID = Locals.Link_ID; ...'

    Vidula,
    I am not completely sure if this is the cause of the error but it is something that will cause problems if it is not fixed.  In your SQL statement you must properly concatenate your strings with your variables.  In the statement you posted you were simply putting the variable names in the string, not actually pulling their values.  To do so properly your query should look something like this:
    "SELECT crc_table.CRC_Value  FROM crc_table where crc_table.File_ID='"+Locals.File_ID+"' and crc_table.Version_ID = '"+ Locals.Version_ID+"' and crc_table.Link_ID = '"+Locals.Link_ID+"' ;"
    This way we are using the values of the variables in conjunction with the text strings.  In this case the usage of single quotes (') casts the variables as strings so you may need to change this character sequence, but from the second example you gave I think that your variables are of type string so this should work fine.

    JavaScript is different from Java. Somehow, security has gotten turn on in IE. If you go to tools, internet options, security, then look at Internet (for hotmail anyway), hit the custom level button, you will see that scripting has been disabled.

    it didn't... but at least I know where to find the Library-  any other ideas?
    Instead of being installed as a standard plug-in, the Community Toolbar uses the system loader "launchd" to load the plugin on-demand whenever Safari is opened. You will need to remove three components that are installed, starting with the binary files.
    The binary file is the actual toolbar application, and is located in the /Library/InputManagers/CTLoader/ folder. Removing the entire CTLoader folder will remove the application and other files that are installed along with the toolbar. If you just care to quickly stop the toolbar from loading, doing this will be enough to keep it from loading.
    With the binary file removed, the toolbar will no longer launch; however, the system will still try to load it when Safari is opened because the system launcher instructions file is still installed. While having these instructions present will not cause a decrease in performance, removing them will prevent the system from outputting errors and warnings in the system log files.
    Removing only this instructions file is another way to stop the toolbar from loading; however, it will require either the use of the following command in the Terminal (done before removing the file) or a restart of the system after removing the file to unload the instructions from the system loader and prevent the toolbar from launching.
    sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
    The final components to the toolbar are some resources that it uses, which are relatively benign and will become unused "orphaned" files when the other components of the toolbar are removed. These files are all located in the /Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/ folder in a directory called Conduit. Remove this directory and the toolbar in its entirety will be removed.
