Added a Toast CD with international versions/installers of ClarisWorks 4.0, containing British, Danish, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Norwegian, Finnish and Swedish versions. All versions are v4.0v4 or later. (DL #2)

@srichter: Serials for all* Claris products (including this one) were optional.
You don't need to use one with it.

ser code can be anything you want

Enter "My dog has fleas" (or anything else) as the serial entry part and it will still work. Try it

But you don't have to enter any anything at all. As with most Claris products, just enter something into the name & company fields and leave the serial field, as is, works fine.

* The one exception I know of was Claris FileMaker Pro version 4.0, where you had to enter a serial number during the install.

I have another serial number, so pls try it:

Added Music Notation for ClarisWorks 4 and screenshots.

Good clean installer. Thanks. Great app. I had the 6 original CW 4.0 disks but Disk 6 was corrupted so I couldn't finish install with my disks. Pulled in some ClarisWorks v1.02 documents I created. No issues.

by MikeTomTom - 2013, June 26 - 12:51am

But hou can I register it (otherwise it doesn't work). How can I purchase it?

Ignore the serial field, leaving it untouched, as it is, and simply click OK. It doesn't need a serial to work. The serial entry field for ClarisWorks is OPTIONAL.

Fine, it works! Thank you so much!

by MegaKsenia - 2013, June 25 - 5:45pm

Try serial number:

The recent "Edit 2" comments and "Purchase-This game is still available from its publisher" link to an ebay auction... is this for real? I'd like to remove this SPAM before too long. Any objections?

For sure this is not the publisher. Probably we have in the future separate Buy Links to Amazon (direct link to the game entry) and/or eBay Link fields. Ebay Link fields could hold such direct links like given here, or eBay search links at all.

I've updated this application to make work for 68030 and 68040 systems and replacing the old one.

by GeeYouEye - 2009, August 18 - 7:54pm

This was my favorite version of Claris/AppleWorks, even if the newer versions were technically superior. CW4 was fast and easy to use.

by MacWise - 2009, August 12 - 5:30am

Let me explain myself. ClarisWorks--up to version 5 when it became AppleWorks--was a fat binary, that is an application compiled with both PPC and 68k code so it could run on both kind of Macs. The version posted here is incomplete because the 68k code was removed with an utility like Strip fat. What I'm asking is the original, fat version. That's it.

by Euryale - 2009, August 11 - 10:03pm

Well I've checked both versions ClarisWorks 3 for 68k and Clarisworks 4 for PPC (this one)
and I didn't found any real difference, as a matter of fact both have the same limitations,
for example if you try to print out a calendar, from the Stationary Wizard, they don't go past 1999
neither of them, Also I thought the Presentations App was just in v4.0, but the v3 also has it.
basically, Uploaded it so we could available have the FULL collection of ClarisWorks,
and because it wasn't posted.

by MacWise - 2009, August 11 - 9:48pm

Yeah I know about that. I'm asking for the real ClarisWorks 4.
