Can you open a powerpoint presentation in pages?

I have a powerpoint presentation sent to me from a client that needs to be editable in pages. There are no animations and the size is 8.5 x 11. Can this be opened in pages in a editable format?

Kelley,
No, you can't open PPT files in Pages. If you plan to do this often, purchase Keynote. The other option is to use OpenOffice or LibreOffice.

Can you open word doc. In pages? (Opening a doc. From the web) in the iPad or iPod tuch?

NH,
This may seem a fine point, but iWork apps don't actually Open Office apps. They Import them. The reason I make this distinction for you is that when you view the result of the import, you may see some variations from what was in the Office document because of an imperfect translation, and when you make edits, you are editing an iWork document, not the original Office document.

Can you open a keynote presentation in PowerPoint and vice versa?

I've opened a powerpoint presentation in Keynote but had trouble opening a Keynote in Powerpoint. I wasn't sure if it was just that particular keynote or is does it just not work. I know some formatting sometimes get lost. What's the quality like when doing both?

But you can open a powerpoint in Keynote.
Correct?
Yes correct
I'm not sure what you mean by "you must export to powerpoint in keynote to convert files". How do you do that?
In Keynote; File > Export > PowerPoint

Can you open a word document in pages 08

Quick question however stupid it is
can you open a word document from a pc in pages 08?

The answer is as above wrote yes. Does it do it perfectly, the answer is no. Opening a .doc/.docx in Pages'08 will generate a frame warning message I find. I find text and symbols are preserved well, but formatting is not perfect. An example of my own is in the screenshot below. Same page 28 on a .docx but formatting of the document is not exactly preserved as you can clearly see. Where preservation of formatting is critical Pages is good, but not perfect alternative to Word '08.

I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!

I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!

If there are fonts, transitions, builds, video or audio in the PowerPoint file that are not compatible with Keynote, it will either prevent the presentation opening or Keynote will substitute the settings causing playback changes.
I use Open Office to play and open any PowerPoint files sent to me, they play exactly as in PowerPoint.
Open Office is free, you can download it here:

I have checked the list of supported cameras and mine appears to be there.
Yes, the Panasonic FZ45 is listed but it was first supported by Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 6.2.
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
Then go to this table to see which versions of Photoshop are compatible with ACR 6.2: CS5 and later. Not CS3.
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
So your options are to upgrade to CS6 or subscribe to CC (check out the Photoshop Photography Program: PS CC + Lightroom 5).
Or download the free DNG converter, convert all your FZ75 Raw files to DNGs then open the DNGs in CS3

Can I open iPad keynote and iPad pages on a PC Microsoft word and a PC Microsoft PowerPoint? also the other way around?

Can I open iPad keynote and iPad pages on a PC Microsoft word and a PC Microsoft PowerPoint? also the other way around?

Yes. You can export iPad Pages and Keynote files as Word and PowerPoint files and you can upload/transfer/email Word and PowerPoint files to the iPad and work on them in Pages and Keynote.
Be advised that there will be some degree of formatting issues and also that the iOS versions of Pges and Keynote do not the full functionality of Word and PowerPoint on a computer.

Can you open with Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft word for Mac?

Can you open in Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft Word for Mac?

Pages '09 will open .doc files from Word 2004. The Mac OS is not what is in question. Pages '09 opens Word 2004 documents and if the same version of Pages will run in Lion and in Mountain Lion ..... Thats all that matters.
I trust you were using MS Office 2004 and would now like to buy Pages?

You should be able to preview it if it was sent to the iPad as an email.
Or you can purchase Keynote for the iPad, which knows how to open PowerPoint.

Firefox doesn't have any built-in ability to display PowerPoint files in a tab. You can check how Firefox is set to handle PowerPoint files in the Options dialog:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Applications
''This list may take a while to load.'' In the search box above the list, you can type pow and let Firefox filter it down. Usually these would say "Always Ask" but you might have customized them to "Use Microsoft Powerpoint".
There are some sites that have a Flash-based PowerPoint viewer, such as OneDrive/SkyDrive and SlideShare. Maybe Gmail has one now, too, I haven't checked. But all such sites also should have a separate download button, either before showing their viewer or as part of the viewer. If there are particular sites where you notice this problem, maybe someone know how to bypass the viewer on that site and go straight to a download.

I cannot open a Powerpoint presentation in Captivate 8. Any ideas as to why?

I cannot open a Powerpoint presentation in Captivate 8. I'm following the directions to double-click on the "From Powerpoint" icon to start a project. I can double-click on a PP project, but then I get a message "Unable to import. File may be damaged." I know my files are fine. Any ideas as to why I cannot open?

I realize this was a few months back. But I had this problem and exchanged numerous emails with support, with NO resolution.
I was running Windows 8.1 and Captivate 8 (64 bit).
Finally (and I should've tried this much earlier on) I decided to uninstall 64-bit Captivate and try 32-bit.
Voila. Problem solved. 32-bit imports .pptx files perfectly.
Hope this might be helpful for anyone else encountering this.

Can you print four months to a page in iCal?

Can you print four months to a page in iCal?

Yes.
From any application you can print multiple pages on a single page. In the Print Dialog click on Copies & Pages to open up the drop down menu, then select Layout.
iCal defaults to one month per page, so select the 4 pages to a page Layout to get what you want.
Does that answer your question?
