Can't get the new pages to open on iMac running parallels

I have downloaded new version of Pages but when I go to launchpad and try to open the icon appears for a second and then nothing happens. Same with Presentation and Numbers. The old versions seem to work - any help? I am running  Mavericks and am testing out Parallels but am losing patience.

i have been posting this a few places maybe it will get around.  I have found becuse of my full enclosed iphone case i can not get my figure low enough to get the control panal to work.  maybe apple can move up the control panal access to get it to work better for thos who have full cases.

  • My macbook air won't load.  Says start up disk is full but I can't get the home page to open

    My Macbook air won't load.  Says the start up disk is full but won't open the home page so I can do anything about it

    Step 1   
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later. 
    b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.

    There are only two things that you must do to connect a device to calendars:
    1)  In settings>icloud, you must log in, WITH THE CORRECT ID/PASSWORD, and
    2)  Turn on calendars on the same page.
    You said that the iphone 4 and ipad **used** to automatically sync.  Do they no long sync?

  • I just bought the new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?

    I just bought a new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?  I updated it to Mavericks also.  The Mac App store is showing $19.99 for each iWork component (Pages, Numbers, Keynote).  I also bought the previous iWork version, if that matters.  Free updates for iPhoto and  iMovie seemed to show up with no problems.  Maybe these are just glitches that will clear up in a couple of days?

    Hi.  If you want it to get updated, this should take care of it.
    1. Uninstall iWork from your Mac.
    2. Do a fresh install of iWork from DVD.
    3. Install iWork update from Apple Downloads (direct link here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563)
    4. Sign into the Mac App Store, and check for updates.  It should now show up as a free update.  You may have to give it a few minutes (i.e. 10-15 minutes).
    I've been a Windows user for years, so I know all of the tricks by now.  I had hoped I would not need this knowledge for a Mac, but oh well...
    Good luck.

  • I can not get the bookmarks tab to open

    I just installed firefox on my new laptop. I can not get the bookmarks tab to open. I also can not get the right mouse button to open the copy, print, etc menu.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    *Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • How can I start from a CD if I can't get the CD tray to open?

    My PowerMac won't start. I want to insert a bootable CD into it, but I can't get the CD tray to open. Pressing the CD button on the keyboard does nothing.
    I remember on the old iMacs with a CD tray, you could push a paper clip into a hole to get the CD tray to open. Is there anything like that on a PowerMac? Or any other tip that I can use so I can open the CD tray?

    Hi, Dunestrider -
    Try this -
    Restart or boot, immediately press the Option key and keep it held down. That should bring up Startup Manager, a bright blue screen with icons for available boot volumes.
    If the CD drive is empty at this time, press Command-. (Command-periodkey) - this is an instruction to the Mac to open the tray. Then insert your disk and wait a bit for it to spin up and get read.
    Old style Startup Manager - then click the circular arrow on the left - this instructs the Mac to rescan buses. Your bootable CD should then appear onscreen. Click it and then click the straight arrow.
    New style Startup Manager -
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1310
    - you will probably need to restart after the disk is in, holding down the C key to force a boot using the CD as the boot volume.
