iMac OS X 10.3.2
I have Appleworks 6.2.4 as supplied with my iMac G4 last year. Although it operates in the Classic environment whilst I have OS 10.3.2 there have been no great problems until a few days ago (after I updated to Panther.)
Now, when I click the "close" button to close a file and the "save" button to save changes I find that next time I want to open the file I get a message reading "This document was not closed properly and some of your changes weren't saved. Do you want to recover these changes or discard them?" I can only avoid this by saving the document before attempting to close it.
There is also a noticeable delay with the coloured ball spinning before some actions can be completed like scrolling to the bottom of a document, selecting text, even adding new text.
I wanted to update to Appleworks 6.2.8 or 9 but once more I cannot proceed because I get a message saying the updater can't find a US version of Appleworks 6. I live in the UK but was not aware that my Appleworks was any different from any other.
Can anyone be so kind as to help with advice?
