What is the same on the Mac as word for windows?

In the Mac where is the samething as window word?

I know what he means, he is misinformed. Pages is a Word Processor with a few publishing features thrown in, as Word Processors go it is OK, it is not Word and it's compatibility with Word is less than perfect.
On a feature to feature comparison with Word Pages is far behind, but it is far cheaper.
If the OP wants Word for less money then Libre Office or Open Office offer better compatibility and far more features than Pages, and you don't have to remember to choose 'Save As' and select a .doc format everytime as Pages forces you too, they will do that automatically (just like MS Word)

  • Does windows really run the same on a mac with bootcamp for any made for windows apllications?

    I want to buy a mac for work, but the softwares we use are for windows ( iris-net, easera systune, elgar) . If i install windows on bootcamp, it will work?

    The concept of running Windows on a Mac is not hard to understand.  It's nothing more than one computer capable of running both Mac and Windows.

  • Can I edit the system file Manifest.XML in Word for Windows? (there's a reason for doing this)

    I renamed a file directory containing several PDFs. Consequently, Adobe Digital Editions says these files are missing when I try to open them and look at notes I made. There seems to be an obvious solution, but I'm unfamiliar with XML and don't want to screw things up. The file locations and a lot of other information for Digital Editions is in an XML file called Manifest. If I can edit the XML file to show the correct directory, I expect I'd be able to see these files and recover my notes. I'm unsure what Word for Windows may do (e.g., add or delete characters) when I edit and save the new Manifest.  That might corrupt the Manifest and be extremely counterproductive.
    Is editing the file locations in Word for Windows safe, so long as Digital Editions isn't open when I do my editing? 

    I can confirm that Notepad++ can happily edit manifest.xml files, but as Jim_Lester says, make a backup (especially if you are not used to XML).
    You may well find that if you Open the .epub files from their new location explicitly from ADE (ctrl-O) that you will both be able to read documents and see the notes.
    I can't vouch for that; but if it works I'd recommend it over editing the manifest file.

  • What do I need to run Windows on a Mac and Word for Windows?

    I have a Mac OS X Lion and would like to run Windows programs which are only programmed to run on Windows.  What do I need so that I can run Windows and Microsoft Word.

    "I have a Mac OS X Lion and would like to run Windows programs which are only programmed to run on Windows."
    Your best bet is to use VirtualBox to provide a virtual machine capability allowing the installation of a guest OS like windows. I've used VB extensively for years and I highly recommend it's use for your issue.
    If you have a full version of windows, you could use bootcamp as an alternative to VB but you lose the ability to access the OSx environment while booted in windows.
    Best of luck

    Your advice did not help me. I also installed 10.7.4 combo but the situation is the same.
    my internet connection is ok, mail is ok, but app store after 3 resets does not recognize my ID and it says "connection is not possible". Why? I have the same problem in both my mac mini late 2009 and mac book air 2010? Is it a problem of 10.7.4 update? I have to solve this problem and how can i return to 10.7.3 if my last backup was not with 10.7.3???thank you for your kind collaboration...

    Hello JohnnyChin95,
    You absolutely can just reinstall OS X Mavericks without having to erase and install. The steps to do that are almost the same as the only thing you do differently is that you do not go to Disk Utility to erase the drive. Just go to the Reinstall OS X option and pick your Hard Drive and follow the on screen instructions to get it going. Check out the article below for the step by step process.

  • In downloading my Events from iPhoto on my Mac to my iPad Air, the Events arrive in the proper order but not showing the Key Photo.  At the same time, the Events arrive in iPhoto on the iPad in totally random order but showing the Key Photo.Why?

    In downloading my Events from iPhoto on my Mac to my Ipad Air, the Events arrive in Photos in the correct order but not showing the Key photo. At the same time, the Events arrive in iPhoto in a totally random order but with the Key phto showing. Why? of course and is there a way to shift the order in Iphoto and get a Key photo in Photos?

    HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
    i tried to sort it out  by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
    i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
    WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
    I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated.

  • I am trying to connect to apple support and it keeps asking me to put in the SN of my MAC and when i do it says that the SN is invalid I am putting in the SN from under about this mac and it is the same as the one one the bottom of the MAC any ideas ?

    Did you purchase this product direct from Apple online, in an Apple Store, or through a third-party authorized reseller? Or did you buy it from an original owner whose Applecare plan was supposed to be transitioned to a new owner, by them?
    Do you have an original shipping carton the unit arrived in?
    If the product was a retail 'open carton' purchase and no
    back-track is possible, contact the reseller.
    And if the computer had seen a major service with logic
    board replaced, etc, it may have other issues with serial
    number vs one they may have assigned it. Usually a
    new logic board may have the SN flashed or if a unit
    was determined to be a reman, a new # assigned. But
    that would appear in System Profiler, if officially reman.
    If you registered a product anywhere with Apple, it would show on a web page along with its serial numbers, going back several years, at this page after you log in there.
    https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
    A blue text with triangle See all products and services opens an Apple ID
    sign-in window, then the page changes to show your items & info about them.
    If you run the serial number through online Lookup, what appears?
    http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
    Not sure if this helps, 'your product' should appear - if registered.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in, but always the same album (which I nevr asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I control what is going on and choose the album myself.

    When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in aafter about ten minutes, but always the same album (which I never asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I choose a different album myself and control the order and format?

    Thank you Winston for a helpful response and for reminding me of something which I found nearly a year ago and then lost (in my mind) because I did not use it. I am grateful for a correct answer but it still only achieves part of what I wanted.
    I can now choose my photos, decide how long they stay on screen and choose one of a variety of presentations. Two things I still can't do.
    One is to get it to play the photos in the chronological order in which I have carefully set them in an album; it still tends to be random and repetitive. The other is that I cannot get any of them them to saty on screen for more than about 20 seconds. I guess this is all due to the way Apple TV is constructed.
    But still thanks, nevertheless.

  • I installed Windows 7 in my Macbook pro, I can access Windows data in Mac, but I can't copy and delete it. and the same case while i am working in Windows. Could you please guide me if there is any solution, where I could copy/paste/delete my data.

    OS X can natively read NTFS of Windows, but not write to it.
    Windows can't read or write to HFS+ of OSX, and that's a good thing from a security standpoint.
    Ideally if you share files between operating systems you should have a FAT/MSDOS formated USB key or hard drive. (exFAT external drive if any of your files are over 4GB in size) both these formats are universal for OS X or Windows.
    If you install software into Windows and OS X to read each others formats, then you have to pay to update/upgrade it deal with headaches.
    If you swtich between Windows and OS X a lot, don't need full hardware performance for Windows, you may consider installing virtual machine software like VMFusion or Parallels which can take a copy of your Windows in Bootcamp and place it into OS X as a file then run that copy of Windows in a window in OS X like so.
    Advantage here is you run most of your light weight Windows programs like this at the same time as OS X.
    Benefit is you can run just about any Windows or Linux version and OSX server editions (not client versions)
    Bootcamp only allows Windows 7, that's it now.
    You'll also be interested in two fre pieces of software, Carbon Copy Cloner and Winclone on macupdate.com.
    CCC clones OS X partition and Winclone clones the Bootcamp partition. Valuable for you.

  • How to remove preinstalled files of adobe photoshop from my mac mini so that i can install a new version of the same software.The previous version was removed using the app cleaner software.Could not continue installation bcoz of earlier files

    How to remove preinstalled files of adobe photoshop from my mac mini so that i can install a new version of the same software.The previous version was removed using the app cleaner software.Could not continue installation of the new version because of the existance of files from the previous version.plz help

    What "app cleaner software" ? I ask because installing Photoshop over a previous version has never been a problem. Perhaps your difficulty stems from another source, eg. "cleaner software" ?
    If you look in your hard drive, at the root level there is a Library. In there is a folder called Application Support, and in that you will find a folder called Adobe. Files from your previous version are there.
    However, I urge you to call Adobe support to make sure you are not doing anything that would mess up other Adobe applications.

  • Why is the menu structure different for different OS environments? What would it take to make them the same across the board?

    The questions in the title pretty well say it all. Each version of the program works differently and wondering what it would take to standardized them for being the same across the board. Menu items are in different locations depending on what OS you are using. Putting the cursors in the URL line works differently from one OS to the next. It would be nice to create an equal standard for working under all OS types.

    Firefox follows the convention for each OS as to where it places and what it calls menu items. The most noticeable is the Options/Preferences dialog.

    I am having trouble with my iPad, i can start it, but the iPad does not work. i tried to use the power and home button at the same time, the apple logo appears, but the iPad does not work. What am I suppose to do?

    After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.
    Read this in its entirety before you do anything. Make sure you read the sections at the end about using recovery mode.
