This problem must have occurred many times, but I have only just become aware of it when trying to open two old text files in Appleworks 6 on my intel iMac running 10.7. I get the message 'PowerPC applications are no longer supported'. I still have Appleworks 6 on the Mac, but cannot open it as I get the same message. I use Pages now.
I really do need to access the documents as I need to edit them - I can open them on an old PowerPC Mac but I need to merge them with new stuff to create a book. Short of transferring the whole project to the old Mac, is there anything I can do.
I understand that Rosetta used to deal with this problem but is no longer part of the OS?
Thank you for any help you can offer.
