Buy Pages, Numbers and Keynote?

I bought a MacBook Pro retina less than a year ago and I thought Pages, Numbers and Keynote would come with the purchase given that's what it says on this site. Do I really have to buy them so I can have a "basic" computer?

You need to have either owned previous versions of the iWork Apps or have bought the Mac after September 2013.
You already have a "basic" computer, what have you been doing for the last year?
If you want the latest iWork Apps (not a good idea IMHO) you can buy the iWork '09 boxed DVD for US$19.99 from Amazon and that will entitle you to free upgrades to the current versions, but be warned the latest versions are actually inferior to the previous versions and are buggy:

LibreOffice [free] is another alternative.

If I buy iWork, will that include Pages, Numbers and Keynote for all my Devices?

It seems like purchasing Pages, Numbers and Keynote Seperately for my Mac Computers and then again for my iOS 5 Devices ads up to about $100, though iWork costs more as a whole, what would be the key advantages in purchasing iWork not from the app store?
If i do purchase iWork not from the app store, will it still be available on all my Devices?
-iPhone
-iPad
-Macbook

I have pages, numbers and keynote on my macbook pro, but when i try to use the apps on my new iMac it will not let me save

I purchased Pages, Numbers and Keynote for my MacBook Pro and iPad last year. I just purchased a new iMac for my wife and it came with iWorks. When I try to save a document on the iMac it tells me I must buy an iWorks serial number, but the App Store shows the applications as installed and will not process the request. How do I correct?

Did you pay for iWorks to come preinstalled on the iMac? Because it sounds like what you have is a trial version, which is why it is stating that you need to buy a serial number.
I suggest that you delete the entire trial iWorks suite. Once they are safely in the Trash where the Mac App Store can't see them, you can sign into your account on the MAS and download the MAS versions that you own a license to use.

This is a user to user forum. We can't answer your question.
You need to speak directly to the vender, Apple or 3rd party, that sold and installed the apps.

I have purchased Pages, Numbers and Keynote for my iMac and wish to transfer them to my iPad 3. Is this possible and if so how do I do it?

I have purchased Pages, Numbers and Keynote for my iMac and wish to transfer them to my iPad 3. Is this possible and if so how do I do it?

If you want to have Pages, Numbers and Keynote on the iPad then you will need to buy the app versions from the iTunes app store - the Mac version (OS X) is not compatible with the iPad (iOS), they are different operating systems.

Pages, numbers and Keynote files readable in Windows?

I'm probably embarassingly niave but I'v just bought an iMac (2 months ago) and when I send Pages, Numbers and Keynote files as attachments to emails, the recipients (who operate on Windows Computers) say they can't open them. What do I have to do to convert them into files that are readable in Windows?
Thanks for any help

Export them as MS Office files or buy a copy of Microsoft Office for Mac

Will 128gb of ssd be enough for pages, numbers and keynote documents?

I am going to be buying the MacBook Pro 13" with retina display in the next month or so and I was just wondering whether the 128gb ssd that it has will be enough for Pages, Numbers and Keynote documents. There will be about 30-40 documents on each of those apps. If I do need the extra space I do have the money for the next size up (256gb). On the MacBook I will also have photos on iPhoto that I will be editing. Thanks

You won't have any problem with that amount of documents, unless they are very heavy.
128 GB are enough for most users unless you need to store a lot of files. Respecting to photos, it depends on the amount of photos you want to store, so you will have to check this.
If you get a MacBook Pro with Retina display with 128 GB and you see that you haven't got enough storage, you can return it during the first 14 days of use and get one with 256 GB. Another option is to get an external drive

Before you can download free apps:
1. Make sure you are using IOS 7 (ignore)
2. Make sure your iPad is registered in My Support Profile.

3. Try downloading again; it should be free.

Took delivery of imac yesterday with pre-installed Pages, Numbers and Keynote. App store says they need updating but won't let me because I've never owned the major version of the software. I have paid like anyone else, so why can't I update?

You must be signed into the Apple Store with your Apple ID or it won't work.

If that doesn't help, open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder

Click Go
Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.

How to install Pages, Numbers and Keynote again in iPhone ?

Hi,
I bought an iPhone 6 plus and it comes with pages, numbers and keynote with it.
2 days ago those I accidentally deleted those apps
Now when I wanted to download the Apps again it says $9.99
Given that in my Apple ID I haven't bought those apps.
But I bought the iPhone that comes with those apps
So I thought I should be able to re download it
Is there a way to restore those apps without purchasing them?

Did you ever back up our phone to your computer? if yes, those app should be part of the iTunes library. Sync them again to your device.
You could also try to set your device back to factory settings and see if the apps are installed during this process.

Any recommendations on how to upload pages, numbers and keynote to my 08 macbook with mac os x 10.5.8

I bought a used macbook recently; when I turned it on, it needed some updates. I do not have Office, but I would like to upload Pages, Numbers and Keynote to be able to work with some of the Office documents.
Can anyone help??

The App Store version of iWork ‘09 programs (Pages, Numbers & Keynote) will only work with 10.7 or 10.8. You can get the Work ’09 DVD which will run on 10.5 or 10.6 on eBay or Amazon.com fairly cheap

I have the same problem. For about 1 month ago I extended my iCloud storage account (+20 GB) in order to maintain my backups for iPHONE and iPAD as my account would expire 14/10. In spite of this, I got an email 15/10, which said that iCloud was reduced to 5 GB. 2 hours later I received a new email with comfirmation on the purchase of +20 GB storage plan. However, I only have access to 5 GB on my iPad and iPhone. Called Apple Support but they couldn´t help me. Did you find any solution ?

Yesterday taking consierable time, effort and money I upgraded Pages, Numbers and Keynote and now I can't get "SAVE AS" in pages! Help! What to do?

Yesterday, having taken considerable time, effort and money I upgraded Pages, Numbers and Keynote. All because I have just bought an iPad and couldn't transfer files unless I got a newer version of Pages!
Now I can't get "Save As" in Pages. It will only show "Save a Version".
Haven't a clue what has happened and would like to get Save as - as in the past.
Help! What to do?

I don't think you lose anything going from Lion to Mountain Lion. Lion just seems "unfinished" to me. I don't have Lion on any Mac. I do have one running Snow Leopard & a couple of PPC Macs running Tiger.
The only way to upgrade to Mountain Lion is to purchase it in the Mac App Store.
