Appleworks 6 Free For Mac

691 4718 A,AppleWorks v6.2.9. Mac OS v8.1 or later (CD) An icon used to represent a menu that can be toggled by interacting with this icon. Apple has finally posted the Appleworks 6.2.7 upgrade. This free update to AppleWorks for Mac OS X provides improvements to the presentation module, AppleScript, web content searching, printing.

Appleworks has been abandoned for many years (since 2007 according to Wikipedia).

I believe it is difficult impossible to run it on a modern Mac. You best option is to find a Mac of the correct era to run that app to convert them for use with new apps.

Another option is to use an OS that can run older PowerPC applications. That means Snow Leopard or earlier. Snow Leopard can run in a virtual machine but only if you have the server version of the OS (Apples end user licence dictates that). It is complex to setup but can work if you persist.

Apple moved over to iWork, but personally I'd consider a different app, possible something like Word or one of the other free office suites. It really depends on what you are creating.

These forums have other possible options - depending on what file type you need to convert it may be possible to do without jumping through the hoops of run a VM or old Mac.

Also I'd suggest you consider troubleshooting the iMac - if that boots (via another OS or external disk) it may help you setup something to convert the files.
