![]() So then the only possibility is to buy MS Office, iWorks or go pirate and get hold of AppleWorks 6.x.x. ![]() Since newer Intel Macs can no longer run older apps (so called "Classic" MacOS 7-9.2 programs) there is no possibility to read these old files with the older versions of AppleWorks or ClarisWorks they were made with either. The problem now is that AppleWorks only excists in one version with updates for OS X before it was discontinued, so those of us that didn't change to OS X fast enough never had it. The text documents, as well as the spreadsheat, database and graphics documents would be very sensible to be able to open in OOo. However, AppleWorks was discontinued in 2007 and will no longer be sold or developed, rendering CWK as a legacy file format. But the most important one is ClarisWorks/AppleWorks, wich allmost everybody used (since it used to be shipped with the computers) untill very recently. And Claris FileMaker (Pro) for databases. ![]() MS Word for Mac was a different format than on Windows quite long (I think untill Office 98), and Claris MacWrite II and Pro was very popular on the Mac for many years. (The program changed name.) There are many possibilities to open and save in different formats in OOo, but it seems none of the most popular Mac formats are there. For us Mac users it would be very helpful if it was possible to open AppleWorks/ClarisWorks files in OOo. ![]()
