I need a newer version of pages. You can download the latest version of Pages from the Mac App Store.

When I try to open up a page file, I am told to download a newer version, but when I go to Apps it tells me I am already instaled. So now I can not open any page files.  Please HELP!

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • Aparture 3 – Can you link a CD-copy with digital copy available on Mac App Store?

    Is it possible to link my CD-copy of Aparture 3, which I have on my Mac, with the digital copy that the Mac App Store offers?

    No, unfortuntely it wouldn't be possible for you to do that. iTunes wouldn't allow that because you didn't purchase it from iTunes.

  • With this new itunes I see you can download old song from other p.cs if they are listed in your itunes with a could next to them. How do I make it so I see the songs on my new itunes on a different computer?

    When I first downloaded itunes 11 I saw all my old song that are on another computer listed in my itunes list on my laptop with a little cloud with an arrow in it next to the songs from my old itunes. When I updated to 11.1 the cloud icon stayed in the top part of the itunes list where you can click name, artist, all that to organize you itunes list but the songs from my old account were gone. I can't remember how, but some how I tuned the songs back on, if you will and all my old songs repaired with the clouds next to them. Well my boyfriend has the cloud smiple in his organize list thing, but no songs from his old itunes list of a different computer like me and he wants those songs back. I have been trying for hours to re-watch the itunes and icloud tutorials but because of my slow wi-fi I can't get the videos to load and they keep freezing my itunes so I can't even shut it down without restarting my laptop, so I need some help on remebering how to make the old songs show up in his itunes. Can anyone please help? By the way we both have Windows 7.

    If you go to settings>music there should be a setting to show all music. Turn that off, and the cloud purchases should disappear. You may need to restart the phone to take efect

  • Bought a new phone and now I can't turn off FindMyPhone or iCloud from the other device.

    I'm trading in my old phone and need to clear my personal info from it and turn off FindMyPhone before I do so. I've looked up how to turn off FindMyPhone, but it keeps telling me that it can't connect to iCloud or that my password/username is incorrect. Can I just restore my phone to the factory settings to clear everything off the phone? If not, can you help me with with getting my old device where it needs to be so I can turn it in?

    After hours of working to reset my phone, I finally was able to turn off FindMyPhone and reset it. Sorry, I don't know how to delete my previous question.

  • Why is the latest version of iTunes having difficulty recognising my Apple ID?

    This past week, I have been unable to access my iTunes library on my home iMac from my wired Apple TV which was working perfectly well before. No other changes apart from upgrades to Mountain Lion and latest iTunes version as per Software Update. I have now discovered that I cannot sync my iPhone with iTunes and the same thing is happening with my iPod too. There appears to be a problem with iTunes recognising my Apple ID as I am repeatedly being asked to enter my Apple ID but it would not accept my username and password. Interestingly, iTunes, pre-populates the username with my hotmail account (which I rarely use) rather than my me.com address. I have no problem accessing iCloud.
    This is incredibly frustrating as I am unable to sync any of my devices with iTunes. iTunes tells me that my home iMac is not an authorised computer and when I do authorise it, it goes through the same loop repeatedly.Tried the usual quitting, restarting, deauthorising then re-authorising my iTunes account, etc.
    Anyone has any idea what is happening?

    You are not having my exact same problem, but try this:
    1. Browse to "C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming" in Windows Explorer.
    2. Rename the "Apple Computer" folder to "Apple Computer-old".
    3. Start iTunes
    4. Close iTunes
    5. Copy the file "iTunesPrefs.xml" from "C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer-old\iTunes"
    6. Paste the old "iTunesPrefs.xml" into the new "Apple Computer\iTunes" folder iTunes just created (not the one you renamed) under "C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer-old\iTunes"
    7. Overwrite the new iTunesPrefs.xml with your old copy of the file.
    If you don't care about losing your iTunes preferences then you can just do step 2. You can always go back and grab things from the old folder later if you realize you wanted to have your EQ settings, individual track gains, etc...

  • Why is the latest version of Itunes causing my firefox 9 to crash?

    My firefox 9, which i love btw, started randomly crashing on me very often. I read in a thread online that ppl have fixed this problem by ininstalling Quicktunes or Itunes. I did just that (uninstalled the latest Itunes update version 10.5.02) and my firefox stopped crashing. I don't like Itunes as it is, only use it because i have ipod, but the latest version seems to have glitches or flaws or smth. Going back to the older version.

  • IPod Music Problems with the Latest Version

    So I am happily using my iPod and iTunes 7 software with my Win2000 notebook and everything was working great.
    Then I get a notice that there was a new version of iTunes (7.1) and do I want to download. So I download and then install the new version. All seemed well.
    The next day, I go to work outside and I plug in my iPod to go to work and instantly notice, all my music is gone from it. And I think to myself, well that was really nice of the software upgrade to erase all my music off the iPod... some upgrade.
    I open iTunes and see that it still sees all my music on the computer. Then I hook up the iPod and open the little icon to see what's on the iPod and all music seems to be shown there but it's all grayed out.
    If I use the iPod menu to look for music, there is nothing shown on the iPod... no music, no playlists, nothing.
    I did a restore using iTunes which seemed to erase the iPod and then a sync. During this process, I could see all the music being copied back to the iPod. Later, when it was done, I took the iPod outside with me to work and all my music was present and played fine.
    Later I came back in and hooked the iPod up for a re-charge. My wife was about travel so I handed the iPod to her. Later I found out from her that there was no music on the iPod... she was not pleased.
    So I look and sure enough, there is a later iTunes software update (7.1.1). I figure, there was a bug in the software and they have quickly recognized it and fixed it. So I download and install this version.
    Same problem. No music on the iPod.
    What's going on here? Do I have to go back to version 7 to get a functioning iPod again?
    Thanks!
    Mike Truly

    I'm having a similar problem since the update, but iTunes seems to be a bit more selective for me. Even though it is shown under audiobooks under the iPod on the taskbar to the left of iTunes, the latest audiobook I purchased from the store--Wintersmith--is not showing up on my actual iPod. I've tried restoring my iPod, etc., and it simply won't show up. So far, all of the help topics I've looked at have really kinda failed to answer this problem with a specific solution; they all seem to follow the "try resetting it and see what happens" script. Is no one concerned about what specifically is happening, why it happens, and how to make the iPod function properly without having to reset it every time a glitch comes along?
    Any insight appreciated.

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • HT1386 How does the sync process work on the latest version of iTunes?

    I used to be able to drag songs I wanted to sync to an iPod touch.  Now I can't figure out how to do it in the latest update.

    kdavis hi,
    From the main iTunes window, select 'music' from the drop down menu at the top left side. Then, simply drag and drop your music files onto the window. iTunes should then bring in the tunes which will be loaded onto you iPod when you next sync (as long as you have 'Entire music library' selected in the iTunes iPod tab.

  • Err Msg: You need a newer version of Pages to open this Document?  I am already on the latest version?

    Hi there!  I am recently on Maverick & the latest version of PAGES.  I just went to open up a PAGES document & got the following error message.
    You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. 
    You can download the latest version of Pages form the Mac App Store. 
    I confirmed I am on the latest version of Pages by visiting the Mac App Store.  When I visit it says INSTALLED. 
    I created this document with the latest version of Pages. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks so much & continue Being Brilliant out there! 

    Hi there fruhulda,
    Thanks so much for your reply.  I am truly grateful.  I apologize in advance for just learning this now & from you!  Thank you again!  Your explanation sounds right?  I defintely did not change those.  Currently, I already have documents created in Pages 09 & Pages 5.0 on my computer.  Do I switch back & forth or should I remove Pages 09 from my computer?  If I remove Pages 09 will those already created documents be OK?  Maybe I should just switch back?  I also downloaded the new Keynote, will however I "fix" Pages be necessary for Keynote also? 
    Thanks again so much!!  People like you make the world a brighter place!!  :  ) StaySm:)ing & Being Brilliant!!

    After updates to Pages and several other applications I received an update to Mavericks 10.9, all of which were downloaded and uploaded to my MacBook Pro. After the uploads I created a document in Pages which I saved to my folder. Now when I try to open it I      get a message that says I need the latest version of Pages to open this document.

  • I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version

    I cannot re-open files that have been saved in Numbers version09 - it states "You need a newer version of numbers to open this document". This is the latest version & also the one I have created/saved???

    Jules,
    You may delete Numbers 08 if you wish, but some folks like keeping it around. Close all your Numbers docs and Quit the Numbers app, and the other Numbers app if necessary.Then click the Numbers icon on your doc. Then select Numbers > About Numbers, and in the window that pops up, see which version it is. If the Dock icon started Numbers 08, you can cure that by dragging that icon off the Dock and letting it go in a puff of virtual smoke.
    Now, to put the Numbers 09 icon on the Dock, double-click one of those known Numbers 09 documents so that Numbers 09 starts up. Verify by checkig Numbers > about Numbers.
    Now click and hold the Numbers Dock icon and select the Option for Keep in Dock.
