I wonder if we can consider it abandonware and it would be appropriate to ask for a download of it.Īs Wikipedia is not complete in its information about the staroffice versions I am not aware of all versions compatible with classic macOS. So for classic macOS as stated above versions 7, 8 or 9 which ran on PPC or earlier 68k platforms can only run Staroffice.Īs also stated above I know Staroffice was a non free product although there has been free versions. However new applications build for modern macOS are not compatible with classic macOS.

There was in early macOS 10 ways to run applications for the classic macOS (classic emulation) and developers could extend their code to run on both (carbon). This all was for modern macOS which used to be known as macOS X, Mac OS 10, the still current macos.īefore macOS 10 came earlier classic versions. A year or so later OpenOffice released a real macOS client. At the same time it became possible to run OpenOffice as a none macos variant in x11 on macOS. The first OpenOffice based product to run on macos was neooffice somewhere around 2003. None of the sugested will run on MacOS 7-8-9.
