Corrupted file with new Pages

I have used Pages for about 3 years and found it to be a good editor for documents.  I have recently upgraded to Mavericks which brings a new version of Pages.   I have the latest level of pages and OS installed.  When I opened a pages document, it asked to move to the new format which I agreed to.  I spent 4 hours updating the file saving regularly.  When I quit out and tried to reopen the file I get this error message:
"You need a newer version of Pages to open this document"
Clicking OK exits the application.  The Learn More button takes me to the marketing page that explains how wonderful Pages is.
Now I am stuck.  I have the latest version.  And because it updated the original file in place, I have even lost the original file. 
What do I do next?
Many thanks
Mandy

Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • Major metadata Problem with new Pages(v4.3) epub export

    Iam are very disappointed with new Pages update (4.3). After new Pages update, when i want to export a book into epub, and upload book in iBookstore iTunes Producer cancels it, because of ERROR: /OPS/cover.xhtml(5,458): element "div" not allowed here; expected the element end-tag, text or element "a", "abbr", "acronym", "applet", "b", "bdo", "big", "br", "cite", "code", "del", "dfn", "em", "i", "iframe", "img", "ins", "kbd", "map", "noscript", "ns:svg", "object", "q", "samp", "script", "small", "span", "strong", "sub", "sup", "tt" or "var" (with xmlns:ns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"). Previously i did not have any problems with uploading the epubs produced in Pages (4.2). I checked our epubs using epubchecker and i  think, that new Pages (4.3) makes incorrect HTML elements in epubs, which i want to export.
    Please, send me some feedback and Apple - fix this problem.!

    Have you tried creating your content in Pages v4.3 and transferring it into iBooks Author 2.0. Let the latter export your epub, which may be a newer epub standard than what Pages may incorporate. See if this epub satisfies the iBookstore iTunes Producer file requirements.
    iBooks Author can't produce .epub, only a special .ibooks format that can't be read on any device other than an iPad.  But should certainly satisfy the ibookstore.

  • HELP - Combining files with different page views

    Hi - I am trying to combine pdf files - some are to be viewed 2-up and others to be viewed as single page. I have not found a way to do this. Even if I save each individual file with its own page view - when I combine them I have to define the new file with a page view so it alters the individual files. Has anyone found a way to manage this problem and have each file retain its individual identity? I would rather not save them as a package but rather as merging files into one pdf file. I can only imagine there should be a way around this. Any ideas???? Thanks, Robin

    You may want to ask in the proper forum for whatever application you use to combine the files.
    This is the free Reader forum.

  • How do I create a single PDF file with multiple pages?

    Hi, I occasionally need merge several jpg images into a single pdf file with multiple pages (one Jpg per page). I have tried doing this on Preview, and by selecting all the pages I want to include in my document and trying to save to Pdf through the "Print" function, but every time it only saves the first page.
    Can anyone tell me if there is a way to save multple-page pdf files without having to purchase a specific program (i to this too infrequently to justify the cost)?
    Thanks very much,

    This works for me...
    Open first image in Preview View > Sidebar. Drag the other images into Sidebar, then select all.
    From File menu > print selected images. Choose PDF > Save as PDF

How to change all the document numbers using "Comment" feature? Any alternate method?  alternate method? I have Adobe Acrobat X Pro and Windows -7 platform.

    Yes, I just want to cover up all the pages for those particular area of document numbers.
    Nothing sensitive about it. I just want to show the correct document numbers on all pages in print out.
    So, I wanted to cover up by comments, but commenting on each page will be difficult. So, I wanted to comment the same on all pages.

  • How to repear a corrupt file with Numbers

    How to open a "corrupt" file with Numbers.
    With excel it is possible to open such a file with the following error message :
    "The file you are trying to open, 'filename.xls', is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?"
    Clicking YES, the file is opening correctly with XLS.
    How to do the same with Numbers?
    When i try to open the same file with numbers i have no "error message" but the information contained in the file is not readable.
    Many thanks for your help

    Yeah that's true to an extant; microsoft did a good job fixing that but unfortunately allowed it to be re-introduced in 2006 with windows vista where they allowed file naming to receive destructive values (wasn't very fond of this);
    in previous versions of windows such values once entered would be followed by an error message telling you those values couldn't be used
    I wasn't aware it would pop its ugly head back up into windows 7 but I see otherwise as in the case of mine
    (I forgot to mention the period preceded a parenthesis which in turn can be destructive to the file's original format)
    Anyway photoshop wont open the file after changing it to .psd leaving an error message stating....
    'Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of photoshop'

  • On iPad can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages app?

    On iPad, can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages application?  If so how do I perform this activity?

    Yes you can open Word files. If it is an email attachment you can simply tap and hold down on the icon and select "open in" and then select Pages - as long as you have the Pages app on the iPad.
    Where is the file on your iPad or how do you want to move it to the iPad?

  • Map with 500 pdfs. How to make a new file with only the first pages, new file with second pages etc.

    Hi,
    A client confronted me with the next question:
    I have a map with 500 pdf's in it.
    Is it possible to make a new file with only the first page of each pdf?
    After that to make a new file with only the second page of each pdf?
    And after that the third?
    Etc.
    Is that possible with an action?
    Or are there scripts for?
    I couldn't find them.
    I use an iMac with Acrobat XI.
    Any help is very welcome.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can extract each page from each pdf as a seperate page.     Once this is done you can select the pages tocombine.
    You would have to write custom a custom JavaScript and programatically code the names to combine if the extracted file pages habvestandars naming that could  be programed. There maybe some security  coding you will have to do because of Adobe restrictions but this all documented in the Acrobat JavaScript Reference.

  • Can I create a new document with a locked PDF file, add new pages, and lock it all again?

    I published a PDF document ten years ago and now want to add Creative Commons licensing language to the copyright page.  But I forgot the password!  I gather from the Forum that there is no way to recover the password.  However, I wonder if I can take the locked PDF file, create a new document (adding a new page for the licensing information), then lock the whole thing up again.  Will this work?  Thanks for your help!                                                                               

    To create an unprotected file you would need the password.

  • Corrupted files with Keynote 08

    Hi,
    I will try to be as clear as possible because the problem I have is potentially dangerous for any Keynote user. I have been a Keynote user for many years now and I use it systematically to make conferences and conventions. It's really fun to work with that software. But a problem has recently occured with the latest version.
    Like many independant workers, I use to work at my office and later at home. So I backup my files on a portable HD to finish them later. I use a backup program that saves that perfectly
    Many days ago, I wanted to reopen a keynote file at home when I realized that there was something wrong. When the file opened, it showed me the state of the file BEFORE the backup. First I thought I had forgotten to do the backup. But when I got back on the Finder, I saw that Quick Look showed me the most recent version of the file. More, with a right click on the file I opened the package and I saw all the images embeded in my keynote presentation. So I returned to Keynote and noticed somrthing really weird : the thumbnails show the right of the slides, but the slides themselves are wrong. I had no choice but to make the slides again and finally thought I had done something wrong. But the same thing occured today. And I am sure the backup has been done correctly.
    I have tried to save the document as another name to see what happens. When I do so the file is saved without the embeded images that were previously in the package. To resume, if your right file weighed 80 Mo with 50 Mo of images, when you save your corrupted file, it only weighs 30 Mo.
    There has been problems with Keynote in the past. Some images were "lost" after a backup but were present in the package. But this is REALLY a problem because you simply lose your work.
    i f any of you has an answer I would appreciate. And I hope I made myself clear, because even in French, it would have been hard to explain correctly.

    I have today encountered a problem opening old Keynote presentations on my new iMac running Leopard. It cannot open any of the old presentations on my machine because it says they are damaged.
    I also could not open an old Pages file because it says the file is corrupt and there was a .xml missing. I later managed to open this by searching for it directly through the application "Open" command and following the search path. It then gave the usual " This was created by a previous version of Pages..." and the Save as warning, but it did open when I went this route. (I have now saved this document as Pages 08 and all is well).
    There seems to be a bug in the iWork '08 suite when it comes to older documents.

  • Can't load mwp file with new (10.1.4) workbench

    does anyone have an idea about why i am getting this error?
    all mwp files open fine in 10.1.3.
    i can't open any mwp file with this new version and it seems unlikely that they are all corrupt.
    all i have done is change the oracle and jaav home env variables in the set env file.
    the workbench opens fine, can open sessions.xml files but cannot open mwp files.
    thanks a lot in advance for any suggestions or help

    Paul,
    I assume you are referring to 10.1.3 DP4. The previews are not reverse compatible with previous previews. Unfortunately this means that you will need to re-map any project created in 10.1.3 DP3 or earlier.
    We believe we have finalized the file formats for the release and our intention is to have the DP4 projects be completely compatible with the final release.
    Sorry for the inconvenience,
    Doug
