[QUOTE="the8thark, post: 560395, member: 26315"] I just want to pass on what I just figured out now. I tried to use Appleworks on leopard and it quit on launch of the app. So I hunted around and realised it doesn't like auto saving and a few other things. So if the app doesn't work for you just do this and it should work like a charm. It did for me. 1. Find the Recent Items folder and delete the aliases inside it. Find it at: <YourMacintoshHD/Users/YourName/Documents/AppleWorks User Data/Starting Points/Recent Items> 2. Find the Auto Save folder and delete the documents inside it. Find it at: <YourMacintoshHD/Users/YourName/Documents/AppleWorks User Data/AutoSave> 3. Start up Apple works and go to the prefrences. Disable these preferences: Choose the AppleWorks > Preferences > General menu. Set At Startup Show, to Nothing Select the Files option in the Topic popup menu. Uncheck the Auto-Save and Recent Items checkboxes. Click the OK button. That should be it. Now the app will work just like normal in Leopard. [/QUOTE]
