Can see my documents on the Ipad but cannot open them

Hi I need help. Since a few days I still have all my documents in the cloud but first they all dissapeared from my IOS devices (Iphone4 and Ipad2). After a few times deleting the Iwork apps and reinstalling they finally came back but I cannot open the documents. they have a light grey background and just dont come up properly. I tried almost everything and it is driving me crazy. also my lates numbers document I created on my Ipad didnt upload to the cloud. Did anyone else have these issues? can anyone help???
thanks so much

We need more info:
What system are your running?
How much free space do you have on your boot drive?
In the meantime try this:
Try to open your domain file with the script that Cyclosaurus has provided us below that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
Just launch the applicaiton, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

My Ipad 4 shuts off spontaneously, it is difficult to restart. Before I send it in, I need to delete data. When I hook it up to my computer, I can see what is on the Ipad but I can't restore it, as "find my Ipad" is on. I can't turn it on to shut

My Ipad 4 shuts off spontaneously, it is either impossible or difficult to restart. Before I send it in, I need to delete my data. When I hook it up to my computer, I can see what is on the Ipad, but it won't sync. It did work so-so last night and I installed IOS 8, today it is dead in the water. The "apple" icon constantly turns off and on, but the screen never fully loads. I can't restore my IPad until "find my IPad is off, but like I said, I haven't had an active screen all day so I can't shut it off. Help?

Does the unit not run on the charger alone? (take the battery out and plug it in.)
Try an SMC Reset

I can see my emails in WIn Explorer but cannot import them

I drilled down to the stored email folders in Carbonite and restored them to a known location. I then tried to import the folders with TB but there are only 3 folders imported and all are empty. The folders are LOCAL FOLDERS, MAIL.COMCAST.NET AND POP3.COMCAST.NET. All of these folders are empty. I tried this several times with the same result. I really need those files! I am using Win 8.1 and TB 24

I can open Windows Live with Ff4 and can 'see' emails but cannot open them. It was fine with Ff3. Is there a plug-in?

If I right click on the messenger icon on the toll bar it opens windows live in firefox by default. Then the page just hangs. I can see the emails but cannot open them. It works ok if I load in internet explorer browser.

That format is used primarily to record TV shows, which you are generally not allowed to edit. So it's unlikely you'll find a plug-in or converter.
Recapture using Premiere Pro or HDVSplit. Those files will work.

Is there any way to recover files when the back up catalog has been deleted accidently. I can see a preview of the photos, but I cannot access or edit them. They say "the folder cannot be located" and "the photo is missing". I have gone through multipl

I can see a preview of the photos, but I cannot access or edit them. They say "the folder cannot be located" and "the photo is missing". I have gone through multiple Adobe tutorials to try and recover them to no avail. Any tips?

Backup catalogs wouldn't have helped with this problem anyway, but naturally, you shouldn't delete backup catalogs for a while.
The solution to reconnecting the folders is given here: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

TS1702 i open Pages on Ipad but cannot open my documents

i open Pages on Ipad but cannot open my documents

Try this. It worked for me.
I discovered the same problem. I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format. Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story. Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop. Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work. iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app. Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP." ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself). Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT: iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
Hope this helps. Good luck.

I bought some books in kindle but cannot open them

I bought some books in kindle but cannot open them. I get message: remove from device and download again. So i do that but i still cannot open it. What to do? I have iPad 3.

Assuming you have the current kindle app....
Close the app fully. Double tap the home button to see the task bar, then touch and hold any of those icons until they jiggle, then close them by touching the minus sign. Then reboot. Press and hold the home and sleep button until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider. Then try again.
If that does not do it...
Log onto amazon through safari, and check your account. Happened to me, and the cause was that the credit card on file with them had expired.

My macbook pro can see my home wi-fi network but cannot connect to it. My iphone and ipad are connected to my home wi-fi so the problem is not the modem.

Wow, I tried to submit this as a problem and the computer lost the wifi connection again, so i lost the whole explanation i typed up.
I've turned off computer and modem multiple times.
When I tried to run the network diagnostic, the macbook pro gave me a "perhaps you are out of range error". I am sitting next to the modem.
My iphone and ipad are wonderfully connected to the home wifi network, so it cannot be the modem/router, correct?
If I am on the same floor as the router/modem then the macbook pro can see my home network but after tyoing in my password and trying to connect i get a "timed out" message.
If I move down one floor, then the macbook can see and connect to the wifi. I only have one modem on one floor.
Is there some sort of diagnostic I can run to see why this particular device (macbook pro) is behaving ths way? It just seems weird because the computer could connect to the wifi network yesterday while i was sitting next to the router.

SOLUTION!
I've been suffering from this problem for a few months. I tried everything suggested by everyone, and then, today, I had a mad idea.
I used to work in a room in the house that's about 12 metres away from the router. It's on the next storey up and horizontally about 8 metres away. The problem started when I began to work in the same room as the router.
Today I became so frustrated that for some reason I walked into a room about 8 metres away on the same level - Guess what? I connected with no problem at all. Feeling full of joy I walked back to the room where the router is located - Dropped internet connection within a few minutes! Walked back to the the room that's 8 metres away and, hey presto! I have a connection. I now realise that the problem was that I moved too close to the router.
I can think of no logical explanation for my experience, but empirically it seems to work. Does anyone have the faintest idea of why this should be the case? In the absence of an answer I think I may have to start believing in fairies at the bottom of the garden - I'm just off to set a meal for them.
By the way, I don't know if it has any significance, but the router is a BT Infinity router that has replaced the incredibly unreliable Virgin Media cable connection

HT1473 I am trying to upload my itunes music from my ipod to my computer. My current Itunes library is listing the songs, but cannot find them when I try to put them on to my iphone.

I am trying to upload my itunes music from my ipod to my itunes on my computer. My itunes music lists all of the music, but cannot find it when I try to load it to my phone.
The songs are on my ipod, but not on my phone and I don't know how to get them from one device to the other.

In your case, it would be better to have transferred the library to an external drive from the PC. Then, connect it to the iMac and put the library onto the Music folder.
You used Migration Assistant, and it creates a new user with the transferred data.
Open  > Log Out, and log in the new user. Then, open a Finder window, choose Music in the sidebar and you will see the iTunes library. Now, you have to move the iTunes library to /Users/Shared (select Go menu -in the menu bar- > Go to Folder, type that and copy the iTunes library to it). Finally, log in the other user, go to the same folder and move the library to the Music folder.
After doing that, open System Preferences > Users and Groups, choose the user created by Migration Assistant and press the - button to remove it. This is easier if you have an external drive

I had a 14 page website made in iweb on my Macbook air. I filled up my computer with photos and then I can no longer open Iweb. I've transferred all the photos and now can see the icon but when I try to open it it doesn't open. I can also see my domain on the desktop. Can anyone help? Thanks, Lori

I can see my printer in the utility but can NOT print????

I have set up the printer utility with the drivers of my new HP all-in-one 1610. I have plugged the printer into the back of my Base Station. Is there anything that I am missing? I can see it through bonjour, but when I try to print, it gets stuck on the "establishing connection with printer"
Any thoughts???
Thanks
Power Book, G5, macbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Yeah, thanks for that. not helpful.
I have tried to log into the AirPort Admin Utility but it gives me an error for the base station. I tried to update the firmware and I got the same error message. The base station is working well enough to get me online, but I can not access any of the base station preferences, or access panels to check to see if it is seeing the printer. I can see the printer in the Printer utility though.
Thanks for any help.

Can see thumbnails of open tabs but cannot open them at all

Firefox upgraded itself on the weekend.
I have been visiting blogs through the Bloggers' Quilt Festival, which I'm participating in. I tried to leave comments but on the blogspot and blogger blogs was not able to. This morning I saw a bunch of extra thumbnail windows open in Firefox so I closed them, but now the whole of Firefox has shut on me. I can see two or three thumbnails and have a screenshot but I can't actually get them to open.
I saw the advice about starting Firefox in safe mode but that doesn't work from the thumbnails.
Really need help asap because I work from home and work depends on easy fast access that I depend on Firefox for

an alternative way to get into safemode (all other firefox windows have to be closed first): press windows-key + R and open:
firefox.exe -safe-mode

Can see shared CD drives on MBA, but cannot read any data from disks

Puzzling one here.
Have a MBA and am trying to use the shared drives on either a Windows XP computer, or MacBookPro notebook. Both computers are on the same wireless network, and both computers have DVD/CD sharing enabled.
In the RemoteDisk shortcut on the MBA, I can see both computers and their shared drives, and I can even see the title of the disks that are in the drives, however, I cannot see any of the data on the disks. It tells me 0MB at the bottom of the window.
The MBA has all updates installed, and I even tried to manually install the RemoteDisk/Sharing update from Apple.
I found this post, and tried the commands in Terminal, but that did not help: http://jasonevangelho.com/2008/11/02/how-to-really-enable-remote-disc-dvd-drive- sharing-non-air-macbook/
Any idea's?

Oh yeah, I forgot to say that the wireless router is a Time Capsule.
