? Auto sync pages to iCloud?

If I download a document from Pages in iCloud and open it in Pages on my Desktop, will it auto sync with Pages in iCloud (similar to Google Docs) or do I have to re-upload the Pages document to iCloud when changes made?

Winston Churchill - is that your real name?? I have done a few things, I have uploaded using Numbers for an Excel File and all worked well. I also tried to upload the Excel file, by not converting to Numbers and uploading directly from Excel....did not work. File in iCloud unuseable.
My question was, does Numbers (or Pages or Keynotes) auto sync with iCloud (as Google Docs does with documents, without having to reformat before it auto syncs - great feature), or do I physically have to upload each time I am finished editting a document.
I am struggling whether to stay with the Apple iCloud while they work out their speed bumps, or stay with Google Docs, which I am very happy with, it is seamless, auto synch, don't have to re-upload each time changes are made.\

How do I configure my iMac to auto sync Pages and Keynote

How do I configure my iMac to auto sync Pages and Keynote documents with iCloud like my iPad and iPhone does. Note I've updated all devices to the latest software and I have iCloud configured for sharing on all but, neither app on my iMac auto finds and sync documents.

Carolyn,
Thanks but, I have iCloud setup and I'm signed into the same account on all devices. I don't think I was clear is stating my problem with or expectations of the iCloud document syncing function. I'm able to create a Pages document (suffix *.pages document) on my iMac and save it in the mobile documents folder but once I access it on my iPad the suffix changes to a "jpg" file and Pages can not open a "jpg" file.
When working on the document on my iPad, the only way I can save it a in the ".pages document" format is to push it though iTunes and then go into iTune on my iMac and save the document down to my destop or document folder. My expectation is that like the iCal, Contacts, Music, and Apps syncing, the document and data functions would be/should be seemless (i.e. same format on the OS platform as it is on the iOS platforms).
It may be a bridge too far to Apple right now but, if they implemented this capability it would be awesome.
Thanks again for your assistance,
R,

Cycle of auto sync to blank icloud after Itunes restore!

Troubles With Icloud. I installed and synced my phone which was already previously synced with my outlook..dramas ensued, and i lost my calender and contacts from outlook, icloud and iphone!!! I have had to resort to restoring to a back up i did on itunes previous to losing everything. However, the back up has settings which keep telling my phone to sync with icloud once restore has finished. I have all lost info for approximately 10 seconds before it gets deleted again. Please help!

Please - anyone have any ideas? I click on the iCloud Refresh button in Outlook and a time or two I saw a message saying incorrect password. This Refresh button is an Outlook Add In. Anyone know how to delete it and put the correct iCloud add-in on it? I'm SO frustrated - I really don't have any clue what to do.

Sync pages with icloud

I have been using Mac's for 12 years and love them and even liked mobile me. So with the arrival of iCloud I thought that I could create a pages or numbers document save to icloud and then use on either my iPad, iPhone or even my mac in an other country this seems to be not so.
When i save a document on my iPad there is the ability to copy to idisk but even this does not work.
Advice please.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can upload pages documents to iCloud and share them with your iOS devices at iCloud.com, however this is a strategy for sharing documents in use not for backing them up.
Can I suggest you get yourself an external hard drive and start using Time Machine or another back up utility. Data loss is often sudden and unexpected and far too late to do anything about in many cases.

Auto-Sync Bookmarks from iCloud Account 1 to iCloud Account 2

I have two different mac machines using two different registrations. I am able to keep the calendars, notes, reminders in sync between them automatically.
I need to keep the safari bookmarks also in sync automatically. I don't want to manually download and upload everytime. Please suggest ideas or tips for this?

"iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

Is there a way to set an auto sync feature to icloud and windows contacts without using outlook or Windows live messenger just straight to windows contacts?

Need to sync icloud contacts to windows contacts without using outlook or windows live messenger on my pc, i have itunes and icloud fully set up on my pc and i have an ipad2. itunes setting for syncing to windows contacts is not working, nor will it sync to my gmail.

No, you need Outlook.

How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices

Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
What exactly do you mean by 'it doesn't save'.
Does this mean it doesn't save at all, doesn't save to the iCloud folder or doesn't sync with other the devices or iCloud.com.

Do iCloud and Wi-Fi auto sync create duplicates when work same time?

Do iCloud and Wi-Fi auto sync create duplicates when work same time?
I assume iCloud should do same that "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi" in iTunes does.
How do they coexist?

Thanks for reply but somehow desagre as I just drow attention to the iTunes that Sync iCal Calendars indicates:
quote - Your calendars are being synced with iCloud over the air. You can also choose to sync calendars with this computer. this may result in duplicated data showing on your device.
unquote-
Same about Bookmarks, Mail and Contacts.

How do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

how do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

What that button does is sync your tabs between your devices. So if you have multiple macs with Mountain Lion and/or devices with iOS 6 (once it comes out this fall) you can pick up where you left off. For example, let's say I have apple.com, nytimes.com, and facebook.com open on my mac, but I need to run. Later, if I need to use another computer in my household, I can just restore the tabs that I was using before on this other mac.

Since installing the latest Itunes my phone does not auto sync as before, how can I set this up?

Since i updated to the newest ITunes my phone does not automatically sync as it did before. I am not able to locate my pictures or music or apps to set to auto sync. I receive no message that tells when the phone was last backed up to ICloud. I have several songs on ITunes under ICloud that are in the waiting status. This is all confusing. I have clicked on every available option.
Thank you

I'm afraid at this point a backup can't be created anymore and the phone has been damaged too much by the water.
You'll have to get it replaced and use the latest existing backup you have.

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.

Pages and iCloud issues

So far I have found the following issues using Pages and iCloud both on iPad and iMac.
1. I migrated 2 mobileme accounts to iCloud. The pages option to use iCloud would not stay on. This could only beresolved by deleting one of the mail accounts.
2. Pages froze after editing a document and closing it when there was no internet connection. I had to reboot the iPad.
3. The user interface for Folders on the iPad and in iCloud>iWork on iMac is extermely poor. On the iPad there is no way of organising documents in a folder or displaying them other than as thumbnails. On the iMac it is not possible to create folders, organise the contents of those created on iPad, or display other than thumbnails.
If this is Apple's attempt to lure people to Cloud computing then it is not a good start. They should have ported iDisk. I will go back to DropBox.

Though no one replied to this topic, I'm updating with what I've learned after spending many hours on the phone with an Apple tech rep who had esacalated to engineers. There is NO solution. Docs that are out of sync or unretrievable from iCloud or iCloud Drive, they cannot assist with. They offered to wipe my iCloud Drive account and reset it, but I wanted them to restore it afterwards. Just a simple, pull the data off, dump it on an FTP server so I can access it. Nope. No assistance. Not their problem. I have to manually pull ALL the files off my iPad's iCloud account, the ones I can get to and go through this insane 6 step process to get to those docs. Really disappointed with Apple. Using MS Word on the iPad and though not perfect...at least the Pages docs won't be lost.
