Is iWork 08 compatible with a new computer running OS X Yosemite?

Is iWork 08 compatible with a new computer running OS X Yosemite?
I have a 2008 Mac Book Pro 15" that I just installed a new solid state 256g hard drive into last night using OS X Yosemite. I just installed iWork 08 from my original disc and now when I try and open a numbers (excel) file that I had created previously its blank except for the email link I created and the response time is very slow for scrolling or right clicking. Is the problem that iWork 08 isn't compatible with Yosemite? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hello
For Numbers '09 to run smoothly under recent OSes, you need to apply the following updater.
iWork 9.3
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563
* If your Numbers '09 is not from iWork '09 DVD, the updater above would not work because the updater assumes supporting libraries are at
/Library/Application Support/iWork '09
which is the case with the DVD version of Numbers '09 whereas the MAS (Mac App Store) version of Numbers '09 contains supporting libraries in its own application bundle.
Hope this helps,
H
PS. If you're not using the latest Numbers v3, you may simply delete it from your disk so that it will no longer mess up the files created with older versions of Numbers.

My new ipod is not compatible with my Mac computer. what do I need to do ?

My Mac computer with an operating system 10.5.8 is not compatible with the new ipod nano I just purchased. What are my options?

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a PowerPC Mac, none. You may want to ask for a refund.
If it's an Intel Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update twice.
If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

I have just changed over from a computer that was 11 years old, running Windows 98, to a new computer running Windows XP. With my old computer I could easily download video clips, they would open and play as soon as the download had ended. Now I have to click on the download box and click on "Play". Also, when I wanted to keep a clip, I just right clicked and a menu appeared and I would then click on "Save as" or similar. Now there doesn't appear to be any way to save the clips. Apart from a faster and more powerful computer I feel I've gone backwards. Can anyone help?

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Is the Tiger 10.4.x can run with any new computer like 2.66Ghz or up

Is the Tiger 10.4.x can run with any new computer like 2.66Ghz or up?

No,
Earlier Intel Macs in this CPU range came with OS X 10.5 Leopard as their basic, installed OS X version.
Later models in this range came pre-installed with either OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard or OS X 10.7 Lion or OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
Sorry,

I purchased Acrobat 7.0 Standard in 2006 and registered that subscription. What now with a new computer?

I purchased Acrobat 7.0 Standard in 2006 and registered that subscription. That product ran on my older Mac PowerBook (OS 10.4.11). I am now upgrading to a new MacBook Pro (OS 10.10.2), from the OS 10.4.11 PowerBook, which is too old for Migration Assistant to transfer the Acrobat application to the MacBook, so I must manually migrate — drag and drop — which I am told will not enable transfer of applications, so I must re-download, and that of course must be something compatible with the new machine. Does my existing subscription entitle me to download an equivalent to the Acrobat 7.0 Standard on my new computer?

Hi Rob,
Acrobat 7 is most unlikely to run on Mac Yosemite 10.10.2. It has not been tested and is unsupported for this OS.
Recommend you to purchase the latest subscription for Acrobat 11 Pro

How do I associate my iPhone (all my iDevices) with a new computer?

This question has been asked, but my situation is a bit different. I have a 4 year old MacBook Pro. My iPhone (4S), iPod Touch (4th gen), and iPad 3 are all associated with this computer. I just bought a new Mac Mini and want to associate these three devices with the Mini and "abandon" the MBP (even though I will still be using it for other things).
I have already transferred ALL the content (Music, Podcasts, iTunes U, Movies, etc.) in my MBP's iTunes library onto my Mac Mini's iTunes library. They are essentially mirror copies of each other. I also subscribe to iTunes Match. So ALL my music is accessible via the Cloud. I have already turned on iTunes Match with the Mini and downloaded all the songs in my library to the Mini except a small number that I hardly ever play. I left them in the Cloud.
Now, my semi-ignorant intuition says I should be able to create a backup of each iDevice "to my MBP" (not to iCloud) and then copy the backup and transfer it to my Mac Mini. (How I do this I am not sure. Transfer the backups to an external hard drive and then to my Mac Mini?) Where are these backups on my MBP anyway?
Then I thought I could connect my iDevices to my Mac Mini and "Restore from Backup" (The backup that I transfered from my MBP). This way my iDevice would come out of this whole process looking just like it was before...more or less. All my apps would be in the folders I created for them, e-mail accounts would be preserved, etc.
Or is there something even better...faster. I mean, the two libraries are exactly the same. It would be nice if I could just associate the iDevices with the new computer and not have to restore at all.
OK, I throw myself at the mercy of the court. I don't dare touch these devices until I am sure I won't totally jank them all up.

I'm Back.
With Big Al's help and some trial and error I have succeeded in transferring "ownership" of my 3 iDevices over to my new Mac Mini. However, as I expected, some "Poop Happened." However, it was not because of bad advice from the Big Boy.
Here is a summary for those attempting this in the future.
1. I THOUGHT I did a complete recreation of my MBP's iTunes library on my Mac Mini. Really. I did. I used Home Sharing between my MBP and my Mac Mini to import "everything" from the MBP's iTunes library to the Mac Mini. In almost every respect, that method worked beautifully. Highly recommended. What I had forgot is there was one glitch. It was with a collection of podcasts of Steve Jobs being interviewed by the folks from All Things Digital. I believe there are 6 video podcasts and one .pdf in the series. For some reason, there was a problem when I tried to import that particular podcast collection to my Mac Mini. So, I just bagged the import and went to the iTunes store and download the podcasts and .pdf, fresh and new, from the store. So, strictly speaking, my Mac Mini Library wasn't EXACTLY the same as my MBP's.
2. I then connected my iPod Touch 4G to my Mac MIni to start the process of coverting ownership of that iDevice to the Mini. Unfortunately, when I was done, there was a problem. It was that podcast series. When I went to set up wireless syncing of the iPod Touch I noticed that BOTH my MBP and my Mac Mini were listed under Wireless syncing! The MBP had podcasts under its name. The Mini had all other types of iTunes media under its name. I didn't even know this was possible. But, I knew this was not good. In fact, my iPod Touch would still try to connect with my MBP when I open iTunes on the MBP. It would also connect to my Mac Mini. This is not suppose to happen!
3. So, after some head scratching and messing around, with no luck at resolving the situation, I decided to restore the iPod Touch FROM BACKUP (while my iPod Touch was connected to my Mac Mini...of course). I first made a full backup of the iPod Touch to my computer then fired away and let the process run its course.
4. SUCCESS! The iPod Touch no longer had and remnants of its former life with the MBP. Under Wireless Syncing only the Mac Mini now appeared. I performed the procedure with my iPhone 4S and iPad 3 connected to my Mac Mini. Totally successful also. By that point it was 2:00 AM and time to go to bed.
5. I don't know if Big Al's advice would have worked if I had not messed with the podcast section of my iTunes library. But, I suspect it probably would have. So, my advice is...if you are going to do this, try at all costs to not change a thing when you recreate your iTunes library on your new machine. Even if it's just a new copy of the same media.
BTW, the restoring wasn't a total waste of time. I had accumulated about 7 GB of "other" data on my iPad. For those of you who are up on this issue, it can be a real problem as it robs your iDevice of its precious, limited memory. After restoring from backup the "other" data on my iPad had dropped to about 1 GB. I actually wasn't surprised that this happened as this is one of several workarounds folks have developed to deal with what appears to be a problem iOS 6 has with the management of "other" data.
Bring on iOS 7!
Oh! I forgot. One more piece of feedback. Big Al's link also helped me get my iDevices to appear under "Devices" in the left column of the iTunes screen. In my case, the suggestion from his link that worked was to shut down and restart my computer.

I've a few issues, my old computer was out of memory. I changed to a new one which already had another itunes account (for my business) when i upgraded to os5 my library has dissappeared as it has syncd with the new computer. Is there any way i can restore the information previously from my ipad? really appreciate any advice thanx in advance

Lynda-
If you still have the old computer, you should be able to connect the iPad, run iTunes and restore from a backup from a previous sync. Now that you have it updated, you will not need to do that again.

I just set up a new computer running Windows 8.1. When I go to my icloud photostream, the pictures are in PNG format NOT JPG. When I open and upload photos from the photostream, the resolution is so low that the image quality is terrible. Help?!?

Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

Using Time Machine, or any other such program, to transfer Adobe software from one machine to another works probably less than five percent of the time. Uninstall from your new machine. Run the cleaner tool (do a search for Cleaner Tool on this site if you don't know what it is). Then reinstall properly from original media or downloads.

Re-establish synchronization with a new computer/i-tunes

How can I reestablish synchronization with a new computer and new i-tunes version after my old computer crashed? My new computer and i-tunes recognizes my i-touch but thinks it is synchronized with another i-tunes version. And it is technically correct but the other version is no longer accessible because that computer is dead and gone. It will allow me to resynchronize but only by wiping the content of the i-touch and replacing it with the "blank" i-tunes content on the new computer. I would rather not lose the contents of my i-touch.

If your iPod is set to sync automatically you need to take care connecting to an empty iTunes. You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes installed hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys together. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes - Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
Alternatively open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods" and choose Ok. Then connect your iPod.
If at any point you get a message that your iPod is linked to another library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
iTunes will only let you copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
Lost purchased applications can be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.

I am buying an Epson scanner. I am told it is compatible with an Apple Computer, is that correct? I have been told to get Acrobat XI Pro as the software for the scanner. Is that correct? Will this also scan handwritten documents into a Word document?

I am buying an Epson scanner. I am told it is compatible with an Apple Computer, is that correct? I have been told to get Acrobat XI Pro as the software for the scanner. Is that correct? Will this also scan handwritten documents into a Word document?

"I am buying an Epson scanner. I am told it is compatible with an Apple Computer, is that correct?"
We have no idea, and it isn't really our thing.
"I have been told to get Acrobat XI Pro as the software for the scanner. Is that correct?"
Acrobat XI Pro is available for Mac and is an excellent tool for making PDFs. We can't say whether it will work with the scanner. It depends what drivers Epson provide.
"Will this also scan handwritten documents into a Word document?"
That's not what Acrobat is for. It is for making PDFs. To make handwritten documents into Word documents, you'd just scan as graphics, and insert each graphic on a new page of the Word document. They will remain pictures of text, not something you can edit or copy/paste.

Is Firefox 5 compatible with the new upgrade to OS 10.6.8? I'm having problems

Since I upgraded to Firefox 5.0, and upgraded to 10.6.8 (Mac) my computer is not responding as it previously did. I keep getting "box messages" when I scroll and when I move to the tool bar in Firefox, it switches without my direction.
I contacted Apple, no problems with the upgrade. Is Firefox compatible with the new upgrade??? Even my printer didn't respond.

Hey William Dofflemyer,
Thanks for the question. I understand you would like to move some photos in your iPhoto library to free up space. The following article may help you with that:

Install iwork '05 on a new computer when original computer no longer in use

I would like to use my copy of iwork '05 on another computer. The computer it was originally installed on is no longer in use. Can I do this, and how??? Thanks!

Then you can install iWork '05 on the new computer with a clear conscience. Obviously, the previous install is unusable.

After syncing my ipod touch with a new computer, will an icloud backup restore my app data including game progress?

I have an ipod touch which I have USB synced in the past on my Windows Vista laptop.
Now I want to stop USB Syncing with the laptop and USB start syncing instead with my Windows 7 Desktop machine instead.
Both PCs have the latest version of itunes running and I have transferred all purchases from the ipod to the Windows 7 desktop machine.
Home sharing is turned on on both PCs, so now their libraries appear identical.
The ipod has the latest IOS installed, and I have set up automatic icloud back ups for the ipod.
If i USB sync the ipod with the windows 7 desktop PC it warns me that all data will be erased, and replaced with data from that computer. I know that this will mean that all game progress is lost since it is not included in a USB sync backup and virgin copies of all the apps will be loaded onto the ipod.
My Question is this;
What is the best way to keep the app data intact on the ipod?
Do I simply carry out a USB sync with the Windows 7 desktop PC, let it wipe all the game save info away, and then resore an icloud backup onto the ipod?
Will this result in me being able to sync with the Windows 7 desktop PC and keep my game save data intact?
Thanks

Two ways.
- You can sync with the new computer by following these instructions
Sync Your iOS Device with a New Computer Without Losing Data - How-To Geek
All the apps have to be in the iTunes library so the app data will have a place to go.
- Or just restore from iCloud backup. That will also pull down the apps from iCloud. Your apps data will also be restored.
