Can't acces my icloud files on pages for mac

Hi, I have a weird problem with Pages on my mac. I have installed the last version of pages, and I do have the "Documents and data" item enabled on the icloud settings. When I open Pages and click on "Cloud", there appears no documents even though I can acces all my documents through my ipad and my Ipod touch and through Safari in "icloud.com". The only place where I can´t acces my icloud files is on my mac (all I can see is the introduction to icloud, as if there were no items). I have tried a lot of things, I reinstall pages, I signed out from my Icloud account on the mac, I unchecked the "documents and data" option on the icloud preference, but still can't acces my icloud files. By the way, if I create a document on Pages on the mac, and save it on Icloud, it doesn't show on my ipad, neither on my ipod touch and neither on www.icloud.com. So is like there is a problem with the icloud folder on my mac. Thanks a lot for any comment you could suggest to me.

You have checked, that you are using the same AppleID on your mobile devices as on your mac, right?
And your Pages version is Pages 4.3?
This looks like Pages cannot write to your Mobile Documents folder. Perhaps either MobileDocuments or the Pages folder inside have a permissions problem.
What are the permissions on com~apple~Pages? And on ~Library/Mobile Documents?
Copy and paste these lines into a Terminal window:
ls -ld ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents
and
ls -ld ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/com~apple~Pages/
Do you see read/write permissions for yourself, like drwxr-xr-x@

Why can't I add mp3 files to iTunes for Mac 12.1?

I recently tried to add some mp3 files downloaded from a website that don't have DRM (it's folk dances for us to practice to) to iTunes 12.1 but without any success. Attempt to drag and drop the files from the downloads folder are ineffectual as though I've tried to perform a prohibited action. I've tried using Import to Library but again without success. I've searched for the files by name as I saw some reports that files were added but not visible in the library list until searched for - nada. The files aren't old and the website is a well managed secure site so I am not thinking this is some dodgy file issue.
Any help gratefully received - I'm brave enough to do a bit of 'Terminal' tinkering but am no expert.
Thanks

Hey Wellington Boots, I think I may have find an answer for you... and myself ; )
Is it possible that you brought back your music from a backup or time machine?
If so, make sure you have the proper rights on that specific folder... To check that do the following:
Go into the finder in the iTunes folder: /Users/youruser/Music/iTunes
Then right click on the iTunes folder and choose Get Info in the menu
Unlock the properties by clicking on the lock icon in the lower right of the window
Then in the bottom matrix make sure your username is in the list with Read & Write
If it's not present (or you can't add it for some reason) click on the staff Name and change it's Privilege to Read & Write
Now one more step, click on the settings wheel at the bottom middle of the window and select Apply to enclosed items
This step may take a few seconds or minutes if you have a lot of music.
Once this is done you should be able to easily add music in itunes.

Have fun.

When i try to access iwork on iCloud on my mac, i get an ipage logo with 2 options learn/get image. I already have ipage on my mac. How can i get to the file management page?

Lion will only let you add documents to iCloud through iCloud.com, iCloud.com requires the iOS apps before you can use it.
Mountain Lion will let you add documents to iCloud from the iWork apps themselves, you don't then need the iOS apps before they can be opened on another Mac.

Renaming new files in pages for iCloud

When I create a new blank file in Pages for iCloud beta the file is named blank. There is no obvious way to rename it. If I close the document and then try to restart Pages for iCloud I get an error message stating that pages can't be loaded.
This seems fundamental so I presume it is addressed somewhere.

That is what I thought would be the way to do it. However it seemed the only way to see the file selector window was to close the file I was working on and and then hit the pages for iCloud icon again to get the file select window. However, pages refused to reload. I was left with checking the iCloud files on the Mac. I changed the file name there. It sees to me the online and iOS versions of the program should allow for naming of the file from within the files editing window just as can be done on the mac version.
Thanks for the follow up. I guess I just need to figure out why pages for iCloud wouldn't relaod. I suspect it needs to be closed first and that must involve more than closing a window. That begs the question of how the web based program is closed.

I can't see my icloud files

Hi,
I get a Macbook Air and I have keynote and pages. I' m using my iCloud credentials, but i can't access to my files on iCloud.
When I access through my iPad or my mac mini, I do can see and access to my keynotes, pages and numbers through the apps (both, ipad and mac)
but when I try to do the same on my macbook air, I can't see my iCloud files. And I can't upload new files either on my macbook air.
My macbook air has OS X 10.9.4
My Keynote 6.2 (1861)
Pages 5.2 (1860)
On my iCloud settings everything is ok, see my attachment.
I hope you can help me, it's really hard to work this way
thanks

I do not use iCloud and would never recommend doing so, least of all its impressive ability to lose files.
I suggest using Dropbox, there are many other file transfer applications that do an equal job, but all my clients use Dropbox and we have never had issues sending and receiving files.

ICloud files won't open on Pages for Mac

All of the sudden, I've discovered I can't open iCloud files in Pages on my Mac. (Just checked Keynote and Numbers, both of which I almost never use, and the same problem is happening there).
I CAN open up the files in Pages on my iOS devices and iCloud.com, just not within the Pages app on my Mac. I know I can download files from iCloud.com if I absolutely have to. And while I can't open the iCloud files, I CAN seem to email them to myself. So I have them and can work on them on my Mac if needed...but it's annoying to have to do these workarounds.
ALL the apps (on Mac, iDevices) are up to date, and so is Mavericks -- so I'm not sure what the issue is? Is anyone else having this problem?
I also noticed that some of the files, when attempting to open them, have "-tef" attached to the end (like "[filename].pages-tef"). I've never seen that before, and not sure if that's related to the issue or not. Any help on getting iCloud files to open on my iWork Mac apps would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

An empty .doc file will produce that error message in Pages v5.2. Click once on the .doc file, and then press option+command+i. If it says Zero bytes, game over. Otherwise, what is the Created date reported with the preceding Show Inspector key combination?
If the MS Word document is too old, Pages v5.2 will refuse to open it. If the .doc icon has text in it with the word DOC at the bottom, it should open. If it is a plain icon with DOC at the bottom, or does not have DOC on the icon, it may be an alien that Pages v5.2 cannot handle.

Can I save a PDF file to Pages and then work on it?

Can I save a PDF file to Pages and then work on it?

No. Pages does not edit PDF. Just does PDF an output.

Pages for Mac document can't be opened on Pages for Ipad?

If I create a doc with any of the templates availables in Pages for Mac (Mountain Lion, and stored on iCloud), shouldn't be possible to edit it in the Pages for iPad (IOS 7) version? It just says "Document can't be opened" or something like that.

When you create a document in iWork on the mac, a lot of formatting is lost when you save it to iCloud,
That is not true to my knowledge, as you can reopen the file from iCloud on the Mac without problem.
or you try to open it in iWork for iOS.
Again, where are you getting this from? My understanding is that formatting from OSX is retained but a degree of it can't be edited or created in iOS.
Sandro
Where are you? Generally you can get phone support depending how and when you bought either your device or software.
Yes unfortunately Apple periodically makes statements that are not true and has been held to account by the consumer authorities. It has happened here in Australia and the EEC has done the same. Unfortunately it is based in the USA where in recent times corporations have not been held to account.

Edit in Pages for Mac - Download from iCloud in Word format

Does anyone know if the following is a documented limitation?
Create a Pages document in Pages for iPad.
Log in to iCloud.com using Safari. You can download the document as a Word document. (Click on the document > click on the Download button > select "Word".)
Open the document in Pages for Mac.
Modify anything in the text and then Save the file.
Log in to iCloud.com using Safari. You can no longer download the document as a Word document. You can only download it as a Pages document.
(Steps 1 and 2 are not necessary to reproduce the problem. The limitation is there with a new dcument from Pages for Mac as well.)
Does anyone know if there is any easy work around or fix?
The quickest one I can think of is to open the document in Pages for Mac again and then export to Word. This is of course impossible if you are at a location where you do not have Pages for Mac.

Hi Barry,
I think we have not understood each other.
Step 3 is not opening a completely "foreign" document. It is opening a Pages document created by Pages on the iPad. But ok, let's call it "slightly foreign", as the formats between the Mac and iPad versions clearly are not identical.
I do not get what you mean by "first time". What I would like to do is to edit a file freely on iPad and Mac back and forth to my heart's content several times. That I can do. In the end, once I am done with the file, I would like to export it to Word from iCloud using Safari or another browser. That I cannot do.
This export would mean I can open the file on a Mac without Pages or on a Windows PC. It would also mean that I can have files on the iCloud, editable from iPad or Mac, but only accessed from Windows, when I sit at the PC and discover the need to get the latest version.
That export works fine for documents I create with Pages for iPad, but as soon as I touch them with Pages for Mac, they can no longer be exported to Word from Safari.
Regards
Magnus

How can I automatically insert a date in Pages for my Ipad

Is there any way to automatically insert the current date in a letter using Pages for the IPad? If so how?

It is no possible.
An alternative is to create a Page file with password in Pages for Mac, and save it to iCloud, then open it on the iPad using the password in iCloud.

How can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac?

how can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac? i have a client that specificly needs the files to be avi and in 24bit what are the settings that i need to use to export the video using photoshop on a mac?

Hello,
To make a 24-bit AVI file in Photoshop, go to File>Export>Render Video. Then, under File Options, choose AVI from the Quicktime Export drop-down menu. Click the Settings button. Click the Settings button in the AVI Settings window. Change Compression to None, and then choose "Millions of Colors" from the Depth drop-down under Compression.
The Millions of Colors option is for 24-bit video (8-bit R+G+B channels, 8x3=24). Millions of Colors+ is for 32-bit video (24-bit video plus an 8-bit alpha channel).

How can I view an AI file created on a MAC on a PC without corrupting the fonts?

How can I view an AI file created on a MAC on a PC without corrupting the original fonts? An AI file was created with an image and text on a MAC. When the AI file was opened on a PC, the text fonts were not the same as originally created. Also, the same AI file was saved to PDF on the MAC. When the AI file was opened on a PC, there wasn't anything visible. Anyone have any ideas?

Are you using the save version of Illustrator on both Mac and PC? If so, and you have the same fonts installed on both machines you should be able to open it without any problems. You may need to tell it which fonts to assign, they are not always named the same. If you don't need to edit the text, you could convert the text to outline and eliminate the need for fonts.
