Cannot open pages 4.3 documents in pages 5.2

Is this a common issue or is it just me? When I search in Finder for a specific document it can't see it. When I open my old Pages icon in Applications then I can find the document. This is great but I still can't open it. I continue to get the message that I need to update Pages to 5.2 and I'm then rerouted to the app store (again), where it tells me that I already have Pages 5.2 installed. I've tried to drag the documents and drop them into Pages 5.2 - it won't let me. I've tried to right click them but only get a quick view or email option - neither of which helps. I've tried to drag the documents to the desktop and open them from there and it won't let me move them there either. This is becoming very frustrating as I can't even open these documents I require for my business to copy them into the new format. Suggestions?

It sounds like they are not Pages '09 files, they are files you have saved in Pages 5.2.
You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Cannot open Pages documents that I've worked on. I open a new document, work on it, then save and close it. When I try to open the document again, I get the following message: The document "[name]" could not be opened. The file isn't in the correct form

I cannot open Pages documents that I have worked on and saved. When I try to reopen Pages documents that I've saved, I get the following
message:
"The document “[name of document]” could not be opened. The file isn’t in the correct format.
The file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format."
I have downloaded the latest update to iWork, but that doesn't help.
I use Mac OSX 10.6.7
I am using Pages '09 version 4.0.5 (852)
If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
Best regards,
New York Mac User

A few general trouble shooting tips that may apply here:
1. If you used Software Update to do the OS update(s) to reach 10.6.7, go to http://support.apple.com/downloads/ and download and apply the Mac OS v10.6.7 Combo Updater. The Combo Updater contains some fixes that were not included in the incremental updaters used by Software Update.
1a. Check that you have the current version of Pages (and of the other iWork applications) installed. All three applications' current version numbers end in .0.5
2. A common cause of malfunctioning applications is a corrupted preferences file (.plist file). Your Pages '09's plist is at yourname > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iWork.pages.plist
Quit Pages, locate the file and Drag it to the Desktop (or to the Trash).
Restart Pages and attempt to open one of the files.
If all is well, Trash the plist file and empty the Trash.
If there's no change, AND you've made changes to the Preferences that you wish to keep, drag the file back to its previous location, replacing any new one that has been created.

Your copy of Pages may have gotten stuck when downloading. This article explains how to fix a stuck Mavericks download; the same procedure should help with any application:

Hi..
Try this support article > iCloud: Troubleshooting Documents in the Cloud
If nothing there helped, and you are using Safari to access iCloud.com...
With Safari open, press Comand + Option + E on your keyboard to empty the Safari cache.
Quit and relaunch Safari, try iCloud.com
If that didn't help, from your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then quit and relaunch Safari again, try iCloud.com
If that doesn't help, on your Mac, open System Preferecesn > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it. Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data then try iCloud.com.

TS1398 my problem is my iphone 4s is connected to the internet(wi-fi) with full signal strength but freezes when browsing and says "Cannot Open Page, Safari could not open page because the server stopped responding".

my problem is my iphone 4s is connected to wi-fi with full signal(3 bars) strength but freezes when browsing and says
"Cannot Open Page"
"Safari could not open page because the server stopped responding"
I already reset the iphone to its factory settings and erase all contents but still the browsing speed freezes or not searching at all. Sometimes it will work and fast but then the problem uccors every now and then. Iv'e been using iphone 4 for two years and I still have it and works fine compared to this IPHONE 4S.

Settings → scroll down to Safari → in Safari settings, I selected both Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
IF that does not work -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Finally - if problem still present -
Go to Settings>General>Reset
Reset the network settings - you will need to add the password of your home WiFi in your phone once more
The device should turn itself off & back on then go into Settings>Wifi and join your network

Safari cannot open page and seems like Apple doesnt cares :(

Sering dan sangat sulit untuk membuka website mengunakan ipad dengan jaringan 3G. Dan sepertinya ipad sangat lemah dalam masalah koneksi.. Saya mengunakan jaringan 3G,dan saya rasa tidak ada masalah dengan provider saya. ( XL )
Saya coba menggunakan kartu ini dengan modem AT&T dan windows7. Semuanya berjalan dengan lancar walau speed tidak terlalu cepat,50kbps,saya rasa ini cukup bagus kalau hanya untuk browsing
Saya juga sudah membaca posting yang ada tentang ini dan sepertinya tidak ada jawaban yang memuaskan. Apakah solusinya cuma dengan restart? Saya coba.. Dan tidak ada perubahan juga. Terus saya harus bagaimana lagi??
Beberapa orang menyarankan menggunakan wifi tetapi saya sulit untuk mendapatkannya,itu sebabnya saya membeli ipad 3G.
Saya juga mengalami kesulitan untuk mengirim email yang berisi beberapa foto. Selalu gagal ketika proses sudah berjalan setengah.
Kenapa untuk region indonesia saya tidak bisa membeli album lagu??
Saya membeli ipad ini dengan perbandingan 60% untuk bermain game 40% browsing. Tetapi saya mengalami kesulitan dalam hal browsing.
Dan saya membutuhkan waktu 30 menit hanya untuk masuk ke apple support communities
Karena selalu..... CANNOT OPEN PAGE,SAFARI CANNOT OPEN THE PAGE BECOUSE THE SERVER CANNOT BE FOUND.

Have you considered the server the website is on is down or your dns is configured improperly? Talk to you isp about the proper dns servers. As far as the server down what do you want apple to do?

Hi Demo,
Yes, I have not made myself clear, I apologise.
I have tried downloading apps from itunes in order to set up a game for my son, when I go to click on a link, be this in itunes, or on the web, Safari revolts back informing the address is invalid. I read by coping a link and pasting into the URL, this would do it, but not so.
My goal then, is to install Minecraft for my son, I would then download an app to allow this but I am unable to get this far due to Safari insulting the address I ask it to go to
The iPad is first generation
OS 5.1.1 Software up to date.
Thank you in advance for your time

"Cannot open page....server stopped responding"

This is the second time that my ipod errors out.

2. any app that connects to the internet times out. ie weather, bankofamerica
--I tried resetting everything allowed. last time i had to restore the ipod which i lost all my music i paid for at the itunes store (yes i know i should of backed it up.... )
--its not my router cuz im tried different wifi locations and it doesnt help
can someone please help me....

We all wish WiFi was simple to use, plug and play, etc. but it is not. You need some understanding of networking to know what is going on. You can Google "wireless networking" and get some basic understanding of what is happening.
Your iPod is telling you that it is not connected to a network. You have a network strength meter in the top left of your screen and you have the network information in Settings > WiFi.
Start with these steps:
1. Reset your network settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
2. After your iPod restarts, log back into a network using Settings > WiFi > Other network
3. Type in the network name, security used, and the password, if needed
4. If your iPod connects, you will get a check mark displayed next to the network name.
5. Tap the blue arrow (>) next to the network name and look at the information displayed. If your IP address starts with 169.x, you are not connected to that network and further trouble shooting is required.
Write back with lots more details. Like the network you are connecting to, the router used (if it is your home network), and so on.

When trying to update app I get a message saying " Safari cannot open page because address is invalid" help! I use iPad 1. Thank you.

I have the iPad basic first edition. For some reason my app store app is missing. On my games when I tried to update the apps I get a message that says safari cannot open page because address is invalid, but this happens even when I click directly on the prompt message that comes up when loading game. Also, it seems that my app store app has been deleted? I don't know how to get it back. When I try to download it I get the same safari message as afore mentioned.

Swipe to seethe farthest home screen to the left. Type in App Store in the search box and see if the app may have been accidentally placed into a folder with another app.
You cannot download apps using Safari.
