Best Answer

The Open Office download (See links below) is a disc image file (.dmg). Double click on the .dmg icon and you are presented with an icon labelled openoffice.org and another icon which is an alias to your Applications folder. Simply drag the openoffice icon onto the Applications folder icon and Open Office will be copied into the Applications folder. Double click on the Open Office icon in your Applications folder to launch Open Office. There is a version of Open Office called Neo Office that is tweaked specifically for Mac OS X.

I just did this :D

Go to the Mac App Store. Use your Apple ID (which I assume has already been used for purchases, if not- consult Google), then click buy on Pages, Keynote, and Numbers. They are the three applications which make up "iWork". They should then automatically download and install. Its the same on Mountain Lion, Lion, and Snow Leopard.

Just an anecdote, I personally like MS Office 2011 for Mac more than Pages, but it really is based on what you do more.

How do you downgrade from Mac OS X to Mac OS 9?

You cannot without erasing your hard drive and installing Mac OS 9 from scratch. Even then Mac OS 9 may not run on modern Mac hardware because Mac OS 9 needs the ROM chip to boot. Modern Mac OS X hardware uses EFI to boot the system instead of a ROM chip to boot. Mac OS X v10.0 - Mac OS X v10.4 support Mac OS 9 applications and can run them, you just need to install the Mac OS 9 compatibility program which can be found on the Mac OS X Install CD.

How can I install Mac OS X on VMware?

Mac OS X can only be installed on Apple hardware so Vmware is unable to support Mac OS X on anything other than a Mac by running, for example, a virtual installation of Mac OS X Server on a standard Mac OS X machine. Conversely Vmware's Fusion allows the running of Windows, and other operating systems, on an Intel Mac running Mac OS X.
