IPad won't open pages

So I have pages documents and numbers documents that were created on my iPhone5s. When I open them on my iPad (1st gen) it says I need to upgrade to open it, however I can't update the app as it doesn't support it.
Is there any way that I can open these documents on my iPad?

Dropbox, GMail and other 3rd party network solutions are having trouble with Pages 5 file format which is a modified .zip package.
Try via iCloud.

Ipad won't open Word documents without .doc appended

My ipad won't open word documents attached to emails that don't have .doc appended, however my iphone does this flawlessly. Is this normal?

Mine won't either. I was wondering if it had something to do with installing the pages app. My attachments with .doc are showing as pages docs.

My iPad won't open some of my apps and I've tried updating and it says not connected to Internet which I am bc I'm using it right now please help

My iPad won't open some of my apps says it's not connected to the internet which I am because I'm using it right now. I ant listen to music I can't update I can't do anything

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at

4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

My iPad won't open itunes. I have software update iOS 7.1.1 trying to download for days. Is this the problem or something else?

My iPad won't open itunes. Wifi ok safari working. Software update trying to download for days 7.1.1. Is this the problem? How to fix?

If Safari is working otherwise and you can log onto other websites, try clearing Safari and reset your iPad. That might help with the Twitter app as well.
Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Try holding down the sleep and home buttons for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple it's rebooting and just let it do its thing.

Ipad won't open past the apple screen

My Ipad won't open. I have pictures of my home that was damaged in the May 20 tornado and now I can't access them from my Ipad. Any suggestions how to get it to open?
It is stuck on the opening Apple screen

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If that doesn't help Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

TS3274 My iPad won't open apps that I have downloaded and they did not put an icon on my iPad but they say open when I go to them on itunes

My iPad won't open the new apps I am downloading. It didn't even put an icon on the iPad but it does say to open in the iTunes Store.

Try disable all restrictions.

HT1766 My ipad won't open anything. Message: This ipad hasn't been backed up in two weeks.Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wi-fi.

My ipad won't open anything. I get the message: This ipad hasn't been backed up in two weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wifi. This device has beern plugged in and has 62% power. I can't access any buttons including the ok under the icloud backup message.

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Safari on iPad won't open web pages

Hi , my safari on my ipad won't load web pages when it try to open them from an email. They are common websites such as amazon or bbc... Ones that I use regularly until last week when the problem started.
Any suggestion on how to fix this would be welcome... Or I'll have to make an appointment to go to my nearest Apple store which is miles away.

Dropbox won't open Pages 5.1 documents in iPhone or iPad

The only way I have been able to get Dropbox to open Pages 5.1 documents on my iPhone or iPad is to create a file in pages, then export it as a Word document and save it that way. Would love for it just open Pages and avoid the extra steps.

Does Dropbox claim to support Pages files?
If not, you'd have to ask the Dropbox developers to consider adding it to the list of supported filetypes.

Pages App on iPad Won't Open Document

After yesterday's update on the Pages App, I'm unable to open up new documents on my iPad. Is there a bud in the update or what? Is there a solution?

try closing the pages app
double tap home button to reveal task bar
swipe screen till you see large icon image of pages app. Swipe up and off screen to close
tap home button to return
open pages again and see if that helps
or try this
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
(no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

Pages 5.0 won't open Pages files

OK, this is weird. Since upgrading to Mavericks with the free Pages 5.0 upgrade last week, all of my Pages files have been opening in Pages 5.0 just fine -- until today. An update dialog opened today November 4 2013 around 3pm saying there was a Pages update. We proceeded with the update and now any document that was opened and saved since the Mavericks update won't open as before. Instead an error dialog box appears stating "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document.". So I click "OK" and then open the document using "Open With" and select Pages 5.0, which is now set as "default" and the file opens fine. I save the file in Pages 5.0. But the next time I go open it, it gives me the exact same stupid dialog box.
If I open a Pages file that has not been opened since the Mavericks update, it opens in Pages 09. If I select "Open With" and select the new "default" Pages 5.0 and save it in that version, the next time I open the file I get that same stupid dialog again: "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."
What the he**? Am I going to have to use "Open With" for every single Pages 09 file that I want to open in Pages 5.0?

I'm having a similar problem.
Running Pages 5.1 on my iMac and my MacBook Pro.
I can't open any Pages document on iCloud from my iMac, regardless of where that document was originally created (iMac, MBP, or iPad). I have tried File -> Open File... from within Pages, as well as by double-clicking the file within the iCloud folder in Finder. However, I can copy the file to my desktop via Finder, and then open it from my desktop. I can create a file in Pages on my iMac and save it to iCloud, but then I can't open it later.
However, I can open any Pages document on iCloud from my MacBook Pro without any problem - including the ones that won't open on the iMac.

My iPad won't open and keeps asking for a pass code, which I never installed?

My iPad mini won't open, it would appear to have a pass code which I never installed. This was the first time I charged it up and I'm confused. Can anyone help please?

What's the precise text of your error message, please? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

Pages 5.0.1 won't open .pages!

Hi!
My Pages 5.0.1 won't open some .pages file... created few days ago in this same app!
Couldn't open file 'Arabski ćwiczenia.pages'
OK
Of course also pages 09 doesn't open, this is pages 5 format.

Read up on the changes here:

One thing Pages does which Pages '09 doesn't do is Right to Left text such as Arabic.
