Can we edit simultaneously in Pages for iCloud and Pages for OS X?

I know that it's possible for multiple users to edit a document in Pages for iCloud (beta). But what happens if one user is using Pages for iCloud, and another person is editing the same document in Pages for OS X? Will the changes be updated in real time? Is there a danger of creating two different documents, as sometimes happens in Dropbox?
I ask because Pages for Mac still offers more features and tools than Pages for iCloud. So some users may be able to work in the iCloud version, but at least one of wants to use the OS X version to make the final graphic tweaks and edits. Is this possible, or are we asking for trouble by using two different editions of Pages?

Well... it looks like you were right. While Pages for iCloud theoretically supports simultaneous editing, in actual practice it's very difficult. There's no way to add comments or chat (as Google Docs allows), so it's hard to discuss what each of us is doing. And certain UI elements work differently in the OS X vs. iCloud versions, so results can be unpredictable.
iWork for iCloud will only succeed when all versions of the iCloud apps (OS X, iOS and iCloud) are 100% compatible with each other. Fingers crossed.

    Before the reset quit Pages like this:
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can see what's in iCloud collectively at settings > iCloud > storage & back up > manage.... You can only edit the data through the appropriate app (contacts, calendars etc)
    For problems with 3rd party apps, contact the developer.

  • HT201269 I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6. Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?

    I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6.
    1) Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?
    2) Can I back up the newsstand to iCloud and save memory on the iPhone?
    3) Can I back up the bookshelf to icloud and save memory on the iPhone?

    1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
    2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • Can you edit a person from one photo and add them to another photo?

    Can you edit a person out of one photo and add them to another photo?  Like if you need the head shot from one photo to replace closed eyes in the other photo?  Thanks.

    Thank you very much!  Does this require software to be purchased?  I'm new to Photoshop.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Yes, this is done often. You will need to create a Mask of that person, to separate them from the background of the original Image.
    I like to do this with a Layer Mask, as it offers control, and really does not alter the Image, so you can go back and make changes.
    Let's say that you have Image 01 w/ the head of your subject, and want to place it into Image 02. In Image 01, make a rough Selection. I would include a bit of extra background, as we will take care of that in a moment. With that Selection active, Copy the head shot. Go to Image 02, and Paste it. It will Paste in its own Layer. Ctrl+T (Free Transform) can be used to Scale and also position that Layer with the head. Once you have that Scaled and positioned about where you want it, create a Layer Mask. In QuickMask Mode, just paint in the additional Mask to remove all traces of the background that came in with the head shot. As you can paint OUT, and also paint IN the Mask, you can work on this, as many times as you wish - even next year.
    For getting that Layer Mask looking good, work slowly, also see this http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/photoshop/l/blrbps_5agirl.htm.
    I've got another tutorial, that addresses the hair area, and will post that, when I find my bookmark.
    Good luck,

  • How can I see what is in my iCloud and on iPad and remove some stuff on on iPod mini

    How can I see what is in my iCloud and maybe remove some  from my iPad mini

    You have to sign into your iCloud account at icloud.com from a computer to view your iCloud data.  Also, be careful not to delete data from your phone that is being synced to iCloud or it will delete if from iCloud too.  (For example, if you delete a contact from your phone with Settings>iCloud>Contacts set to On it will remove the contact from iCloud too.)

    My iphone is toast, I know I checked on icloud and see my emails from the day before it happened. Can I see when and what my phone backed up through itunes or icloud?
    Please please help i am lost.

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

    A lot of countries only have app store, no music or video stores. Because of copyright laws that are different between every nation. Stupid, that the laws are different, but that's the way it is.

  • My iPhone will not allow me to edit my Apple ID in iCloud and so I cannot sync my phone. How do I change my Apple ID for iCloud for my phone?

    I recently changed my email address and updated my Apple account profile to reflect the new address. This changed my Apple ID for signing into Apple store and making purchases as expected. I am however undable to get iCloud account to recognize the new Apple ID. I have gone in through settings on my iPhone and in iCloud Account Information attempted to change the Apple ID but the field is muted and will not permit editing. I have looked all through Support in iTunes Store and cannot find any information on how to get iCloud to accept my new Apple ID.
    Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

    My 'Find my iphone' is still on, which is keeping me from deleting my account. How do I get around this?
    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How can I edit the privacy settings for my daughters Apple ID.

    My daughter has forgotten her privacy settings. She has $80 in credit and would like to use them. How can she edit her privacy settings?

    What do you mean by 'privacy settings' ?
    If you mean the Settings > General > Restrictions passcode on her iPad then was it on the iPad when she last backed up ? If not then she can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when she last backed up then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and she can then re-sync your content back to her iPad - she won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.
    If you mean the answers to her security questions, then if she has a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on her account then the steps on this page will give you a reset link on her account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170
    If she doesn't have a rescue email address (she won't be able to add one until she can answer her questions) then sher will need to contact Support in her country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if she doesn't already have a rescue email address) sher can then use the steps on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
    If you mean something else ... ?

  • How can I edit the default settings for the Email button?

    I saw this question posted for February and as yet still unanswered. So I am now asking it again.
    I do not want to use my .mac account email address in my website. I want it linked to my domain. I have found no specific instructions for changing the default. Also my drag down "Link to" menu in the Inspector does not work.
    Thanks........

    While you can't edit the default email address in iWeb, there is a workaround which may suit.
    In Safari, locate a web page which has iWeb's email button on it (if you've already published a site, one of your own web pages is ideal). Control-click on the button and select 'Add Image to iPhoto Library'. Drag this image from the Media Browser to your iWeb page, select the image, and use the Link inspector to enable it as a hyperlink linking to 'An Email Message'. Enter whatever email address you like in the To box and a Subject for the message if you wish.
    To make things easier, create an iWeb library in iPhoto and add the email button to it for handy access.
