Someone recommended it for reading Excel spreadsheets. Hi Misterme, Thanks again for detailed response. Thank you all for all the helpful advice!! Very appreciated. So you are suggesting that I may very well be able, with the PowerPC version of the free Neo Office, to, perhaps 99% of the time, open the Excel spreadsheets and other Office Documents. So this is why I thought I would just download my iWorks software that I already purchased for the MacBook into the eMac, and this is what started this thread. This will be so much smoother than toggling back and forth on my MacBook from one window with a spreadsheet to another window that has the other spreadsheet while typing. This way I will be able to type into a spreadsheet on my laptop what I am reading from a spreadsheet on my eMac. I installed Parallels strictly to interface with an old work website that I no longer use).Īnyway, presently, I need to open Excel Spreadsheets on my eMac.

In addition to my eMac I have a MacBook with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and Parallels ( tho I never work on that side.

Hi, Well the first thing I want to say is how happy I am to have found this site.!! What a great resource. It also allows you to run Classic (MacOS 9) applications. It is compatible with most PowerPC software.

If you upgrade to MacOS X 10.4, then you will use Software Update to upgrade to MacOS X 10.4.11.

Do you use Classic applications? If you do and if there are no MacOS X versions of your Classic applications, then you will lose your Classic applications if you install MacOS X 10.5. MacOS X 10.5.8 can run all the latest MacOS X software except for those titles that specifically require Intel processors. The newest version of MacOS X that you can install on your eMac is MacOS X 10.5.8. You want to upgrade your MacOS X 10.3.9 installation to a newer MacOS X installation. To reiterate the posts by oldmanmac and Cecilia, you currently have an eMac with MacOS X 10.3.9 installed. iWork does a decent job opening Office documents.īe clear with yourself about what you want and why you want it. As I have written previously, the Keynote presentation application makes PowerPoint look like the scribbles of children.

Do your colleagues, friends, and family produce iWork documents that they share with you? I can enthusiastically recommend iWork for document creation. It is curious that you say that you want to read iWork documents. This will account for approximately 99% of all documents that you receive. It will open 99.9% of the Microsoft Office documents including Excel spreadsheets that you receive. You must make sure that the version of iWork that you install will open the iWork documents that you receive.Īs for Excel spreadsheets, I recommend that you download and install the PowerPC version of the free NeoOffice. iWork is commercial software and not a part of MacOS X.
