I have the same type of problem with Appleworks as well. I have tried many solutions. Non to any success. I believe my problems stem from the fact that I got Appleworks from an iMac installation CD with OS 9.1 on it. The version of AW is 6.04, but I cannot get it to upgrade to 6.2.8 (for OS 9) & 6.2.9 (for OS X). It will function in OS X, but not fully. In order to make a pdf out of some file I need to open a fresh document of the same design and "select all" from the original document, then group the info, then copy and paste into the document created in OS X. Major pain in the butt. You'd think a native Apple program would have less bumps in it than the comparable software from the company we all love to hate.

Hi, I am having problems trying to install the update 6.2.9 of Apple works. The computer is a QuickSilver 800, running 10.3.7 with 1 gig memory.
It starts the installation very fast running the thousands of files required, then when it reaches: Items remaining to install: 664, it stops and a dialog box appears with the following:


ERROR CREATING FILE.
1008:5,-5000
ACCESS DENIED ERROR.

When I close that box, another one appears with:

"YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH ACCESS PRIVILEGES FOR THIS INSTALLATION".

then the initial installation reappears as if I had not already run it.

How can I avoid this paradoxical behavior?

Thanks
