[MacGroup] iPad open wpd files?
How do I open (and work with) WordPerfect docs on my iPad? I thought Pages would allow me, but when I try to open the file from the email, I don't have Pages as an option. I've done a limited search for other apps, but found none. If something as complicated as an Excel spreadsheet can be opened by Numbers, why am I having trouble with a word processing file? Any ideas? Thanks. Bill ___ MacGroup mailing list MacGroup@erdos.math.louisville.edu http://www.math.louisville.edu/mailman/listinfo/macgroup

I did find that one, and saw the reviews which weren't very encouraging, so I held off. Anyone use this (WordPerfect Viewer for iPad)?On Mar 12, 2013, at 08:32 AM, Ed Wiser wisero...@gmail.com wrote:http://www.corel.com/corel/product/index.jsp?pid=prod4950089cid=catalog20038segid=8600081storeKey=uslanguageCode=en#tab3—Sent from Mailbox for iPhoneOn Tue, Mar 12, 2013 at 8:17 AM, Bill Micou derby...@me.com wrote:How do I open (and work with) WordPerfect docs on my iPad?

[MacGroup] Advise needed
Hi all, Having some issues with my Mac mini and could use some sage advise. The computer is several years old (i think its the last year of the older larger one) and has started to run VERY slow. Seeing the color wait ball a lot. And, lately it's taking forever to boot up. This morning I was thinking it just may not boot up at all. But, I shut everything down and let it rest and then it booted up. My son (he's 14) has started to use the computer much more. Mostly gaming, but also thinking he may be visiting some questionable sites. I don't want to blame him (could just be the age if the computer) but at this point I don't know what's wrong. What should I do? I have family photos on the computer and also need it for work, so it's important! Thank you!

Re: [MacGroup] Advise needed
I am terrible at hardware and great at software. This has been my motto since running several companies. Hire people to do what they do. I would run NOT walk to MAC Authority. I have a G3 tower that runs beautifully and still does alot of my design workload (because I'm a die hard Freehand girl). The I send it over to my macbook pro which is also fabulous because of those guys! I hire them to fix my mac and I hire my fabulous tax person to do my taxes. Well worth every penny I spend! Hire people to do what they do. May not be the answer you want to hear but its what I offer. Good luck!

Re: [MacGroup] Advise needed
My first question to any slowness problem would be: how much RAM do you have installed? And how full is the hard drive? Hi all, Having some issues with my Mac mini and could use some sage advise.
