If I upgrade from Leopard to Yosemity will I still be able to use AppleWorks as an application?

I want to be able to read and write files written in AppleWorks when I upgrade from Leopard to Yosemity on my MacBook. Is this possible? I know that AppleWorks is a long-outdated application, but I have been using AppleWorks since it evolved from ClairisWorks, because of its convenience and simplicity in use compared with more recent software. 

If you have upgraded to Yosemite 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 (as far as I know) still available in the Apple Store (by telephone) at a reduced price 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 within the emulation.
Note that if you want to upgrade to Yosemite your Mac must obviously have an Intel processor, (an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon) and from Leopard you will have to start by purchasing Snow Leopard from the Online Apple Store in order to be able to access the Mac App Store in Applications. Yosemite is supported by the following Macs:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)

    If I choose "restore from iTunes backup" to move everything from old iphone to a new one, will I still be able to use the old phone for music and apps?  Can the old phone be docked up to that same computer every now and then?  Or will the new and old phone overwrite each other in some way?  In other words, are the two phones treated as different devices when the "restore" option is used to set up the new phone?   Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you can use the old iPhone as an iPod touch.

  • TS3376 what will happen if i lock my macbook from my iphone? will someone still be able to use it?

    On the find my iphone app there is a lock feature for my macbook.  If I put a code in and someone took my laptop will they still be able to access (use) my macbook ?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you activate lock mode, your Mac will be locked the next time it connects to Internet and it has your Apple ID. After being locked, it won't be possible to use it anymore unless you have the passcode. The answer to the question is maybe, but normally, it should be locked the next time it gets connected to Internet if the thief doesn't change the Apple ID

    No.
    You will need Office 2011.

  • HT201364 If I upgrade to Mavericks from Snow Leopard will I still be able to use Microsoft office??

    If I upgrade to Mavericks from Snow Leopard will I still be able to use Microsoft office??

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Only if you have Office 2008 or 2011. Older Office versions are PowerPC apps, so they no longer work with Mavericks.
    If you are running Office 2008 or 2011, open any Office app, go to Help menu (in the menu bar) > Check for Updates, and install the latest version.
    If you are using an older Office version, uninstall it and install another application:
    Upgrade to Office 2008 or 2011 by buying it from the Microsoft website.
    Install Apple iWork applications after upgrading to OS X Mavericks.
    Install LibreOffice > http://www.libreoffice.org.
    Remember to make a backup of your files with Time Machine before upgrading.

    The ONLY stuff that should give you trouble is anything that requires Roestta to run. iLife apps can be upgraded for free, and iWork 09 should still run. Office 2011 and Adobe Creative Suite CS5 and CS6 run like before on my Mini.

  • Installing Acrobat XI Pro - will it still be able be use Pitstop?

    Hi, i am about to install Acrobat XI Pro from Acrobat 9 Pro of which i have Enfocus PitStop Pro 09, update 3.
    When i update will i still be able to use the Pitstop Pro, reluctant to do so without knowing, thank you

    It's unlikely it will work. It's definitely not officially supported.
    PitStop 9 had support for Acrobat 8 and 9, so with the Acrobat interface change in Acrobat X I think you will run into problems.
    You can find the actual PitStop system requirements here.
    http://www.enfocus.com/en/support/knowledge-base/pitstop-pro-system-requirements/
    You can always contact Enfocus support on '[email protected]' and ask them directly.
    PitStop 12 is the latest version which has support for Acrobat 9, X and XI as well as the latest operating systems.

  • If i buy an iphone with a bad esn, will i still be able to use the apple appstore?

    1. If I buy an iphone with a bad esn, will i still be able to use the apple app store?
    2. Searching craigslist, it looks like iphones with a bad esn are cheaper than buying an ipod.  If it's the same functionality, then is there a downside to getting an iphone with a bad esn instead of an ipod touch?
    Thanks

    Actually, you can in fact restore it or re-activate it using iTunes. A bad ESN just means it can't ne activated for phone service, but it can still be used as a touch. Phones with bad ESN's are not necessarily stolen, if the owner/account holder fails to pay their bill, the carrier will list with a bad ESN.

    Hello
    Your account shows that you have a 300 minutes Subscription which includes Bangladesh as a destination to call landlines only. You can't purchase or upgrade to an unlimited version as that option doesn't exist anymore.
