What app or software can covert old iMac word file?

What app or software can I use to convert an old word doc saved on my old iMac to my 2012 MacBook Pro?

If the file is Word .doc format, just use a current Word, such as 2011, which can read the .doc format and resave as .docx format.
Pages should also be able to read a .doc file for you and resave in another format.

  • I ran out of space on my time machine  because I bought a new I MAC to replace the old one.  So I copied the old one on the new one  and in addition to that I own a macbook.  So what should I do erase the old IMAC on my  Time capsule ? Shall I reset it?

    Go to the airport utility and erase the TC disk.. a quick erase is fine and takes less than 1min usually.
    A one pass erase takes several hours depending on how big the hard disk is.. but is somewhat safer in that it tests the drive condition. I normally don't bother for a TM backup.
    When you start over you should be able to fit both backups on the TC.. assuming the disk is 2x larger at least than the space used on both the MB and the iMac.
    If not you can also add a USB drive to the TC, and use that for one of the computers.
    The slowest one is best.. as USB is slow.. but fast enough for wireless you won't notice much.

  • What apps are compatible with on old iPod touch?

    What apps are compatible with on old iPod touch? Running iOS 4

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

    Your post somehow found its way to a little-viewed forum for an obsolete Apple hardware made before 1998. I have asked the Hosts to move you to a more appropriate and active forum for your iPad.

  • What is good software to download to remove duplicate files?

    What is good software to download to remove duplicate files? Mostly photos.

    Hi Marcusito12,
    Theoretically you can use the preinstalled software from Toshiba, the Toshiba Disc Creator. With this tool you can also burn CDs/DVDs.
    In my opinion its not necessary to pay for such a software. There are pretty well freeware software to download, like CD Burner XP. Thats my personal favorite, because its a small tool (doesnt need much disk space and RAM), can burn everything and its freeware.
    Check this!!!
    Furthermore I use DVD-R mediums from Verbatim and TDK CD-R.

    I can't save previous word files I have into iWork's, I have dropped the file into pages, but it says it can't convert text, even though I have changed a selective fond from pages! Help!

    Take us through this in more detail.
    What is the Word file? From a PC?
    What version of Word and what is the file extension?
    What is it about the text that is different?
    When you say fond do you mean font/typeface? If so what font, and is it on your Mac? Is there something special/different about this font?

    Hey Fabrizio,
    You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID credentials to convert your PDF file to Word.
    Do you get the 'download' prompt?
    Also, you can find the converted files by clicking at the 'Files' tab. 
    Please try the same using a different browser and check.
    Hope to hear from you.

  • Whats App stopped working, can't re-install, can't download from App World or Internet

    A few days ago, Whats App messages were not longer being delivered.  I contacted Whats App support and they sugggested turning connections on / off, soft reset, hard reset, etc....and then finally uninstall / reinstall the application.  Service books resent, device re-registered...etc.etc......I can make calls / SMS, send receive emails....
    I have a blackberry bold, 9780, Software 6.0 Bundle 2475 and I've seen a message that it's up to date
    My ability to download from the network and re-install Whats App is intermittent.  I've confirmed its not the network (other users are having no problems).  Here's the various things that have been happening:
    Appear to access Whats App on App World, click on "Reinstall", starts to download..then get error message "903 Loss of Service HTTP Error 400: Bad Request"
    I've tried just connecting to wireless without network provider and receive an error message about the radio not being turned on.
    Other times, I can't even access app world and gett error "An error has occurred. Please try again later. (Error ID 40820)
    When trying to access webpages, I've sometimes received "Connection Timed Out. (web address) :80)
    I'm in the UAE and my wireless provider is dU.....
    I guess the only thing that I haven't tried is putting the SIM card into another blackberry....but I'm not sure what issues this will cause... and I'm hesitant to do so.
    I'm not a technical person at all.....it's been really frustrating to not be able to communicate with people via whatsapp.....
    I guess the only other thing I've come across is trying to install it through Blackberry Desktop Software but I have no idea how to do this....I shy aware from BB Desktop software as I don't understand the processes or what it does.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hi chilkootcindy,
    Regarding the error you are receiving using BlackBerry App World™ storefront, could you please verify that the date and time settings on your BlackBerry® Bold™ smartphone are correct before retrying to download? This KB article provides the steps to check this. ""An error has occurred. Please try again later" is displayed when the user attempts to login to BlackBerry App World " http://bbry.lv/I2w2E3
    If these settings are correct, I would suggest verifying with your wireless service provider that your data plan currently supports these applications.
    The following KB articles provide additional information on the "HTTP: 400 Bad Request" error you are receiving in your BlackBerry® Bold™ smartphone browser and the Error ID 40820 you are receiving in BlackBerry App World.
    ""HTTP: 400 Bad Request" is displayed when attempting to browse the internet on the BlackBerry smartphone" http://bbry.lv/QBNNNh
    ""BlackBerry App World is having trouble connecting to the BlackBerry App World server. Verify your network connections and try again. (Error id: 40820) " error is displayed when opening App World on the BlackBerry smartphone" http://bbry.lv/H9ZfLO

  • What Fan Cooling software to use on imac? (Leopard 10.5.1)

    Hello,
    I'm a frequent online user (online games, websites) and I would like to know what kind of fan control software can I use to cool my imac.
    If you suggest one, tell me what specific settings I need to cool my imac properly.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Energy Saver in Apple menu -> System Preferences can manage performance of the machine within specs. No other fan control software does it within spec guidelines, and could without meaning to cause the machine to overheat if it turns off the fan when the machine needs to cool down. Please identify your iMac:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301724
    and see if it is under one of these exchange programs to see if the power supply may need fixing so the fan operates only when necessary:

  • Can an old iMac G3 drive running system 10.2.8 and system 9 be mounted in the secondary drive bay of a G4 800 Mhz running 10.4.11 and boot from the 10.2.8?

    I've done this and the G4 800 Mhz boots up from system 9 on the old iMac G3 just fine, but when I boot up from its system 10.2.8, it runs for only 5 minutes or so and the grey screen comes down telling me to re-boot.  I've run Norton on the system 9 disk and system 10 disk utilities on the system 10 disk of the old iMac G3 and all is fine with it.  Is there some incompatibilities with running the old iMac G3 230 Mhz from the G4 800 Mhz that causes this to happen?  I can access all my old files on the iMac G3 when I boot up with extensions off (holding down the shift key when I boot up), but I would like to be able to use the USB functions when I boot it up.

    It sounds like you have a Power Mac G4 Quicksilver 2002, and according to the program Mactracker, it should be able to run on the OS 9 and the OS 10.2.8.
    I don't know which version of Norton (Utilities?) you ran on the old iMac drive, but I suspect that might be the problem.  This is from the iMac Tray Loading Service Source Manual:
    HFS Plus Formatted Drives
    The hard drive in the iMac is formatted with HFS Plus (also referred to as Mac OS Extended format). It is important to note that Norton Utilities version 3.5 is not compatible with HFS Plus (or Mac OS Extended format), and in fact, can destroy data on the hard drive.
    Norton Utilities version 3.5.3 or 3.5.2 will not attempt to repair a drive formatted with Mac OS Extended format and versions 3.5.1 and earlier cannot recognize that a hard drive is in Mac OS Extended format and can result in hard drive corruption and loss of all data on the drive.
    Note: When diagnosing hard drive problems, it is important to verify whether or not the customer may have used the wrong disk repair software for their drive before assuming that the problem is hardware related.
    If you experience problems with a hard drive that has been formatted with HFS+, Apple Computer recommends using Disk First Aid 8.2 (which is included on the system software CD that ships with the iMac). Disk First Aid 8.2 can be used to recover data that may have been deleted by Norton Utilities. (See the Symantec Web site at NO LONGER A VALID LINK-REMOVED FROM ARTICLE for more information on Norton Utilities and Mac OS Extended format.)
    Some other disk utility and disk locking programs are incompatible with Mac OS Extended format. Before you attempt to use a disk utility or disk locking program, make sure the version you have is compatible with Mac OS Extended format. Check the documentation that came with the program or contact the manufacturer or the vendor that supplied the program.
    Use the Get Info command in System 8.1 to determine how a hard drive has been formatted. Drives formatted with HFS will appear as “Mac OS Standard”, while drives formatted with HFS+ will appear as “Mac OS Extended.”
    I hope some of this helps.
    Good luck.

  • Can no longer import Word files into InDesign

    Hello,
    For many months I have been importing Word files into InDesign CS3 (Mac OSX 10.4.11) with no trouble, but I started having a problem yesterday.
    When importing a 17-page Word file with 16 footnotes, I got none of the text and only the footnote numbers. This is what I get in InDesign:
    12345678910111213141516
    (Endnotes)
    1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
    These are the things I've tried already: restarting, deleting preferences, changing the import options, using CS2, importing someone else's Word file, importing a Word file that I imported successfully a couple of months ago. None of this works.
    It has been suggested that I save the Word file as rtf, but since I have 200 files to import and I'm using Word's character styles for italics, bold, small caps, etc., I'd rather try to fix this problem.
    Can someone help?
    Thanks,
    Tina

    I am using indesign CS2 and i'm trying to import a Word document into a new chapter for a book i'm laying out. it's about 30 pages, but there are at least 80 foot notes. i'm able to get about 1/2 of the document with the footnotes to flow correctly, then EVERYTHING disappears. the only way i've been able to get the remaining text to appear is by adding characters to the text. i'll hit "vvvvvvvvvvvv" a bunch of times and "magically" a little chunk of text and it's footnotes appears. then the ole disappearing act happens. so i do it again. i'm able to get all the text to appear finally, but when i delete the "vvvvvvvvvv" from the places i inserted them, the text disappears again. i have no idea why this is happening or how to fix it. any ideas?
    thanks so much,
    travis
