Can't open iwork or any documents

Can't open Keynote, Pages or Numbers...or any of my documents...they now say they are in the incorrect format, says the file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format. Help??!

Hi Jo,
Do you have at least 15% free space on your HD?
Run Repair Disk: Boot from install disc (insert disc > restart >immediately hold down c key and keep holding it until you see “PreparingInstallation”) > at first screen select the language and click Continue >click on the Utilities Menu in the menu bar > open Disk Utility > selectyour HD in the panel on the left side> click Repair Disk at bottom of mainwindow. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok”twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility such asDiskWarrior or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need toreinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD (repair utilities can onlyrepair the directory structure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quitDisk Utility, quit the installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go toApplications > Utilities > Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.

Problem with Pages. I have recently been unable to open Pages, or any documents from Pages on my iMac. Pages seems to be in the Cloud and can open a list of the documents in Pages, but can't open any of those documents.

Recently unable to open Pages or any documents therein. It seems to be stuck in the Cloud. Although I can open a list of the documents I can not open any of the documents.

The answer is simple... If you want to remedy this, then don't save them as PDFs.
Word opens Word and text documents. Not PDFs.

What kind of Mac are you using, and what version of the operating system?
You should be able to select the document that you want to attach and then use the contextual menu (right click in some worlds) to compress the document, producing a .zip file. You can then attach that to the email and it won't appear as a picture within the email.
If I recall this correctly, the "compress" part in the contextual menu may have a different terminology.

I just received this message: "*** Collection <__NSArrayM: 0x610004449540> was mutated while being enumerated." and it won't allow me to open or place any documents FROM photoshop but I can open files from finder into photoshop. HELP! I just recently got a new iMac and have faced this problem before, we thought it was a permissions error from where we rebooted the computer from. Because of this we just wiped the computer and recently re-installed everything. Now 2 days after re-installing all programs including photoshop I'm receiving these errors. Why is this happening and how can I fix it!?

ok, i've just run a specific test.
1 - Online, ensure that mail is sync'd
2 - Disable network connection, confirm that mail has moved to offline mode
3 - Delete 20 messages in a folder
4 - Conifm they have been deleted (whilst still offline)
5 - Re-enable network connection, leave machine alone for 5 minutes
6 - Confirm that messages haven't been deleted and are still in the folder untouched
7 - Whilst still online, try to delete one or more of the messages, they vanish for a moment, then re-appear
8 - ***
Can replicate this at will......surely this isn't just me?
Seems I'm back to Outlook again

Can't open some of my documents using firefox

first of all I can not open some of my document's that were downloaded onto Firefox how can I open them?
second of all is there a way to download them onto internet explorer and if so how, in order to read them through that site?

1) Try a reset. Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
2) Download any app right now, free or paid, from the App Store and try your other apps now.

OTM can not open attachment with Word Document(*.docx)

With more and more use of Word Document(*.docx) (version 2007). OTM (Oracle Test Manager) can create an attachment with it, but can not open attachment with Word Document(*.docx). Is this a problem for anyone else? Any wok around?
Thanks
Katherine

I am using OTM version 9.2 and the Word document (*.docx) attachment can be opened in this.
For being able to open a docx file, try to attach an word document from the file option in the Requirements, Test or Issue tabs in OTM , once you upload the file, please check if location is " in Database" Else click update DB and upload the document.
Once the attachment is attached to the Attachment section in the right pane, clicking on the attachment will open the *.docx document.
This has worked for me.
Hope this helps.

How can i open microsoft office word documents on my ipad 4 and edit it.

How can i open microsoft office word documents on my ipad 4 and edit it. How to transfer my scaned documents on it

There are a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that are available free if you purchase a new iOS device and that can be purchased separately for older devices. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go, Quickoffice and Office2 HD.
If you can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps and have an Office 365 subscription, Microsoft has just released their Office Mobile app, though it has significant limitations. Or a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.
Regards.

I can't open up a numbers document because my mac says that I need the latest version of numbers. How can I get this?

I can't open up a Numbers document that was just used yesterday because today, my mac is saying I need the latest Numbers version. But there's no updates available for it...so how do I get the latest version without paying?

Can't open iWork's after upgrading to Mountain Lion

I JUST upgraded from Snow Loepard to Mountain Lion two days ago. I can't open iWorks does anyone know of a fix or an update to correct this issue?????
This is the message I get when opening Pages, Numbers and Keynote:

If you used the Mountain Lion installer it will have "migrated" your iWork software to the new system.
Unfortunately that doesn't always work properly. I had to reinstall mine from the original DVD.
If you can't find your DVD then you will have to purchase the iWork software individually from the Mac Store.
Just make sure to completely uninstall your existing iWork from your System first:

The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin, how can I eliminate this problem without dropping m. firefox?

A few days ago I tried to e-mail a friend, when I started A box came up and it required me to add a plugin..Java. I contacted my e-mail courier and microsoft, they told me that is was a plugin from Mozilla Firefox. Since then I must go through Java to send or open an e-mail... this is NOT to my satisfaction, it takes too long for all of this to open and if it is not cleared , I am dropping Mozilla and going elsewhere. Why has this occurred? Is this a result of the last update? If so can I delete the last update and continue on the other version?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== last week

Sorry, I have no idea what you mean by '''"The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin,"'''.
If you think your problem is caused by the Java plugin, you should visit the Java support forum for assistance.
http://forum.java.sun.com/index.jspa
If you could explain what you mean by '''"time unfriendly''' issue with my e-mail account", maybe we'll be able to help you solve that issue.
It might be helpful for us if we knew exactly which web-mail provider you are using. It seems strange to me that viewing or sending web-mail would actually "need" Java for operation, its more likely that some other item on the web page needs Java to run some advertising or other garbage that isn't a necessary part of the web-mail functionality you want to use.

Pages 5.0--I can't open more than one document at a time.

Pages 5--I can't open more than 1 document/file. I can look up files in iCloud/computer, click to open, but the file never opens in Pages 5. I have to quit Pages, reopen to get another document (but still cannot open more than that first doc). I still have Pages 4.3, and I can open multiple documents. Is this a bug, or is there some funky routine I have to go through?

How can i open and edit microsoft documents in macbook pro

how can i open and edit microsoft documents in macbook pro with retina display? I am a new user to mac book

You could install Office for Mac. You could install a free Office-like program such as LibreOffice. You could open the documents with a program like Pages. Or you could install Windows and Office on your Macbook Pro.

You have permissions issues with your user folder and the location where the PS swap files are stored. You need to fix that part...

IWork 5.0.1 can't open iWork 9 files?

iWork 5.0.1 can't open iWork 9 files?
Gmail would not allow iWork 5.0.1 file!?

I'm not literally "looking into it" as I'm not with Adobe nor can I reproduce the problem (and I am running Windows 7 x64 on several machines). I'm really trying to catalyze the conversation here to help lead to a discovery.
I think, since Adobe has said they've not been able to reproduce the problem, it falls on those seeing the problem to try to isolate it further.
If it were me, I'd download and run the freeware tool Autoruns, then disable the software that's starting that you don't know you need. Perhaps you'll discover what it is that's getting in the way of normal Photoshop operation, and can share that information here for others to use. I actually use this tool myself regularly to keep my system clean and lean.
