Bitlocker drive informs me I need a newer version of windows
Hi people,
I went to bed last night with a reasonably happy computer, came down this morning and one of my drives wouldn't unlock, giving me a message saying that "The BitLocker encryption on this drive isn't compatible with you version of windows. Try opening the
drive using a newer version of Windows." urm, 8.1 as far as I am aware is the newest.
Has anyone got any idea as to why and a possible solution?
Kind regards
Did this happen after an upgrade process?
You can try this fix if it will solve the problem.

Suddenly not able to open a lot of my documents due to "needing a newer version of pages"..?
I just got my Macbook Air in early december (my old macbook was getting too old), and the ONLY version of pages I have is the newest one.
Originally, it worked fine -(it was annoying and not as good as the old pages, in my opinion however) - and I had no issues for about a month. I was able to successfully open and edit all saved files. I submitted most of them to colleagues and teachers through Google Drive, although I'd always save two copies of every document I used - one for my files and one for drive storage. Suddenly, neither will open.
Just recently, my teacher informed me that he was unable to open my documents anymore. I was puzzled by this and attempted to open the document both in drive and on my computer, but was confused when it informed me I "needed a newer version of pages". I have the NEWEST version of pages. This document was saved on the NEWEST VERSION of pages.
About half of my files - both on google drive and in my storage - are now unable to open or even convert due to me getting a notification saying "I need a newer version of pages".
A lot of the files I received were downloaded through google drive as Microsoft Word files, and were automatically converted. They worked fine as a pages document when I received them, and was able to successfully work on them and complete them and then resubmit them through Google Drive. A month later, these same files will not open, due to me needing a newer version, but no newer versions are even available.
My mac also has a remote disc - everything from my old laptop was transferred to my new by apple when I bought it.
However, the old files are not the issue. It's the files that I've downloaded and editing since I bought my new laptop that are the issue.
I'm also not a genius with computers - I've used a mac since 2011, but have never really encountered issues that needed me to really "get to know" the innerly functions of the computer until now.
Help? Some of the said documents are very important to my work and I need to be able to succesfully submit them so others can open them through google drive or dropbox.I've seen other people solve their issue this very same way, based on other conversations, but my case is different. No older version of pages exists on my laptop.
My laptop is new, so I have no older version of pages anywhere on my laptop - I never installed it.
All files that I transferred from my old laptop to my new laptop that were made using the old pages still work, but a majority of the new documents that I've created since getting my new laptop will not work.
After further investigation, the ONLY files that will not open are files that had been converted from Microsoft Word to pages and then saved.
So, on my new laptop, I would download a file from another user through Google Drive and then convert it from Word to Pages.
The pages documents worked, and I saved them successfully, and I could reopen them when I first created them.
But now, checking them again a month later, all files and only files that had been converted from word to pages say that "I need to update to a newer version of pages" - but all files that were created in pages by me work fine. And so do documents that I downloaded AS pages documents.
This is the notification I see whenever I try to open a file that was originally a word document. All ex-word format pages documents that I converted from word to pages give me this notification and will not allow me to open the document. They worked originally, but now suddenly do not.. why? -
My hard drive died, so I need a new serial number to reinstall Lightroom.
Hello,
My hard drive died, so I need a new serial number to reinstall Lightroom. How do I go about having another serial number emailed to me?
Thanks!if you have your serial number then all you need to do is download the Lightroom installer and install the program. Use your existing serial number. If you don't have your serial number, but registered Lightroom with Adobe then you can login to your Adobe account and get the serial number.

I have iWorks 9 that includes Pages 4.3. I created a document and saved it as a "pages" file. When I tried to open the document the next day, a dialogue box told me I needed a newer version to open the file. The information provided stated the new app would cost $19.99 and the customer ratings are quite low. Why can't I open a previously created document in iWorks, regardless of the version. This is the first time Apple has demanded that I pay for a new version to open existing documents.
I am with Peter on this issue. Additionally, if you installed the latest IOS Pages (v2.01) on an iPhone or iPad and opened a .pages file on iCloud that was created by Pages ’09 v4.n, or IOS Pages v1.7.n — that document is now in the new .pages file format and only Pages v5 on OS X can open it.

For my Mac Pro, after I downloaded the new Mavericks OS, I downloaded the new pages. However, I still can't open iCloud pages from iPad. Says that I need a new version of Pages on my Mac.
Please help.It appears that you are launching the old version, probably using an icon in your Dock. That icon is an alias & is not updated. You will need to go to your Applications folder & find the new Pages 5 icon & double-click it. Once it is launched, you can right-click on the icon & choose Options > keep in Dock from the contextual menu.

When I try to open some of my documents, the message "you need a newer version of Pages" appears; yet, I have installed the latest/newest version. How do I clear this up? Thanks.
You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 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 5.01 can not open Pages 5.2 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 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.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5.2 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
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 removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Tried to open a file I created in Numbers a while ago, which I modified on 11/4/13, and got a message that I needed a newer version of Numbers. When I went to the Mac App Store it shows that the new version is already installed and there doesn't seem to be a way to reinstall it. When I checked "About Numbers" on my MacBook it shows "Numbers '09 version 2.3". Any suggestions as to how I can get the new version installed?
Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

I have Keynote '09 and have used it many times. Today I started another Keynote document, stopped for a while, came back to continue, and received, "You need a newer version of Keynote to open this document." ?? Stumped.
IOS Pages 2.0 and 2.1 implement an entirely incompatible document format with Pages ’09 v4.3. It cannot open them, and you are then prompted to update to Pages v5+ which is compatible with your IOS Pages.
Unfortunately, updating to Pages v5+ is a bad thing, as it is a brand new application that has omitted over 90+ features from Pages ’09 v4.3. When you update to Pages v5+, it will move your old still functional version of the earlier Pages into /Applications/iWork. Aside from all the missing functionality, Pages v5+ will likely damage older documents that depend on specific Pages ’09 v4.3 features (including AppleScript and custom Templates).
Oh, by the way, the older and new Pages documents have the same filename extension (.pages) making document organization difficult without applying different tag colors to old and new documents.
We are recommending that users remain on their earlier Pages version. You may have to export documents from IOS Pages as Word .docx to avoid the OS X Pages update notice. -

When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this (and won't let me download it again), but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3
Here is the solution that I received from the chat line.
When you update applications like Pages it usually keeps both versions on the computer. So what most likely happened is it didn’t put the new version on your dock. So to fix this, open a finder window. And go into applications which should be listed on the left. Scroll down and you will see Pages listed in here. And the icon should look different. You can drag that icon down onto your dock.Open that and you then can access your documents -
