How do I sync Pages docs between my Macbook and a PC?

I want to sync Pages documents between my Macbook and a PC, for when I don't have the Macbook with me. I created a Pages file and saved it to iCloud, but it doesn't appear in the iCloud Pages web interface, even though other docs created in the web interface do.
Sorry to ask such a basic question, but I can't figure this out. If I'm working in Pages on my Mac and save the document, it's like it goes someplace different than when I create a Pages doc on the web interface...
Seriously confused, and not understanding how this works. Apologies for being such a beginner. This is really the only thing I want to use iCloud for.

Thanks, Rick. I have identified another part of the answer -- my husband and I both use this MacBook. We have separate IDs and iCloud accounts. But apparently only one account is allowed to store iWork files on iCloud. Apparently when his iPhone was set up, or maybe when he borrowed the MacBook for a business trip, or when he took some pictures with his new iPhone -- who knows how or when -- the storage capability got attached to his iCloud account on my computer. I started to sign him out, then was told that if that was done, the photostream would be deleted.
At this point the complexity is beyond ridiculous. We have 3 Mac devices, two computers and a phone, and I can't figure out the logic behind this limitation. I wish I had spent the hours that were invested in this effort in something more productive. I don't think iCloud is ready for primetime yet.

How do I sync my email between my iPhone and iPad?

A razmee209 said, set up your email in settings on both devices.
iPhone email will always be up to date.
The iPad will update when it has internet connection. If it is a wifi only iPad, it will only update when connected to wifi, but will do so automatically.

HT201269 Where are the notes from my iphone backup and how can I sync them with my new macbook and ipad. And my galaxy 3g if someone is feeling especially generous with their time and attention. Many thanks.

- The iTunes backup that iTunes makes included photos in the camera roll. If yo go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices what is the date of the backup? Is it when the photos were on the iPod? You have to restore from that backup.
- What may have happened is that you backup the iPod after you restored the iPod but before restoring from backup. iTunes only keeps one backup and overwrites the previous backup with the changes.

How can you sync safari bookmarks between iphone 5 and ipad mini retina? IOS 7.1.2

The syncing works between my iMac and iPhone on one hand and between iMac and iPad on the other. I'm using IOS 7.1.2. I made sure iCloud is on on IOS devices, same iCloud account, made sure there is no problem with the WiFi...I appreciate any help I can get. thanx

Finally I got a solution from an Apple guy today. First we did the following steps on an iPad and then on iPhone.
Basically, it comes down to this:
general/restore/ erase all content and settings
set up the iPhone/iPad as a new device
type your iCloud account info
once everything is up and running, wait for a while and first check on contacts, calendars, notes if it's syncing with the iCloud, then open safari and look for the other device. In my case it worked and iPad finally detected iPhone and I could see the safari tabs from the iPhone on the iPad.
But then, Iphone still couldn't detect the iPad, so the guy said the original problem was probably in iPhone. And so we did the whole thing again on iPhone and then I finally had my tabs from all devices visible on every device.
Thanks for your help anyway.

Synchronise pages documents between my MacBook and icloud

Any ideas why iCloud doesn't automatically synchronise my Pages documents on my MacBook Pro like it does with my iPad and iPhone?

You have to drag the files to the iCloud site; it's been rumoured that Mountain Lion, due out in the summer, will provide direct syncing of iWork documents.

Sync Pages doc ok - but how to update them?!

With my imac and ipad2, I am syncing some pages doc' and it worked fine - until i tried to update them.
I continued working on the pages doc on my imac and now I want the same "version" on my iPad. It's impossible to update it! Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

People have reported problems with certain themes. I have been using "black" and "darkroom" with no problems. Try switching to another theme to see if this is the case.

How do I sync my calendar between iPhone and Mac on Mavericks? The postings I've seen so far are not showing me how to do this simple thing! Apple used to be easy to use - not so much any more

I am trying to sync my calendar between the mac and my iphone now that I have upgraded to Mavericks. I understand that I have to use iCloud (which I am not at all excited about) but I'll be damned if I can find out how to do it. I've read several postings in the community but they point me to broad troubleshooting pages and I can't find anything that simply tells me how to get my calendar into icloud to begin with and then how to sync. i was pretty happy syncing dircetly through itunes. I am feeling very sour about Apple right now.

Actually it is pretty easy to do through iCloud,
On your Mac(s)
System Preferences > iCloud
Be sure the services you want to sync through iCloud are checked
click on Account Details and be sure your Apple ID is correct
On your iPhone
Settings > iCloud
Account -- Verify the Apple ID is the same one you set in System Preferences on your Mac(s)
turn the services you want to sync throug iClound or ON. These should match the ones you set in System Preferences on your Mac
On your iPad
Settings > iCloud
Account -- Verify the Apple ID is the same one you set in System Preferences on your Mac(s)
turn the services you want to sync throug iClound or ON. These should match the ones you set in System Preferences on your Mac
That is literally all there is to it. The first sync will occur when your iPhone or iPad is plugged into power and on WiFi. After that any change made on one of the synched devices will appear on all of the other synched devices the first time they have an internet connection.

I just started using the Pages app on my iPad2. Two questions: Do I have to buy the Pages iPhone app separately or will the iPad version sync to my iPhone 3GS? Am I able to sync Pages docs created on my iPad2 for viewing/editing on my iPhone 3GS?

You can use the File Sharing feature at the bottom of the iTunes Apps pane when you connect to iTunes. Transfer the documents to your computer, and from there to your iPhone.
See pages 44-45 of the iPad iOS4.3 User Guide
Or page 59 of the iPhone iOS4 User Guide

You can enable iCloud syncing on both devices, making sure hte calendar is part of the 'on' part and then what you change on one should change on the other too.

How do I sync game progress between iphone and ipad

I have several "long term progress" games on my iphone 5.I bought an ipad mini and would like to sync the progress of each game on both devises.I have have game game progress erased in the past, possible from incorrect procedure.
What is the best was to sync devises. I was told at the Apple store to sign in each game with Facebook and the progress would then be the same on either devise. Any proven methods that work ?

Hey Lkr100,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to sync calendar events between your iPhone and iPad (3rd gen). I would recommend using iCloud, which you can read about here:
Apple - iCloud - Your content. On all your devices.
