Do I need pages work with/save Office docs?

I'm confused on how iCloud works with saving documents.  It mentions a number of times that you can work with Office documents, but then it says you need Pages on both my iPhone and Computer to be able to work with and save documents in icloud.    How exactly does that work?
I need it to sync between my MacBook Pro and my iPhone 4.

I'm with you so far.  Then when I work on them on my iPhone, can I save in Word?  Everyone I know has Word and not Pages, so I'm concerned about send files that they can't open.

  • Script Needed to work with "Save for Web" Tool

    I am looking to compress the JPG image files using the Save for Web tool within Photoshop CS2. As you know, this tool yields better results in image quality and file size than the standard Photoshop Save As command.
    To this end, I would like to batch process multiple images within multiple sub-folders. Unfortunately, I havent found a process that will allow the use of the Save for Web JPG compression, batch process the JPG files within a sub-folder structure and re-write the images to the same folder.
    What I have managed to accomplish up to this point, is create a Photoshop Action incorporating the Save for Web tool. However, the Save for Web menu always prompts to save a file to a specified folder. This seems to be the Catch-22 to the batch processing capabilities. When using Photoshops batch processing feature with this Action, and also enabling include all sub-folders, all the resulting files created are always saved to one specified folder.
    I need a script (perhaps Java or Visual Basic) which will run in Photoshop, and allow the use the Save for Web tool (JPG High, Quality 60, Optimized), batch process a series of images contained within a sub-folder structure and then re-write the image files to the same location. Can anyone help with this?

    The files must be very large.
    On my machine
    AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.01GHz 1GB Ram
    It failed with an uncompressed file 347.6MB (40.9MB on Hard Disc) with not enough memory.
    It managed to do a 277.4MB uncompressed file (34.3MB) with no problem although it was slow.
    With such large files it might be betted to just do a folder at a time so there are two new vars that you can alter.
    MAXJPGSIZE this is the size of the file on the Hard Drive.
    SUBFOLDERS setting this to true will include subfolders and false will only process the selected folder.
    Paul.
    //GLOBAL vars, amend values to suit.
    //Maximum size of file in Megabytes  to process (This is the file size on the Hard Drive)
    MAXJPGSIZE = 34;
    // "true" = include subfolders - "false" do not include subfolders
    SUBFOLDERS = true;

  • Pages works with all other docs, except the one I need to work on.  From my downloads folder I can preview the entire file, however whenever I try to open it, i get the "opening" pane filled to ~90% and then the SBBOD.  Only file it does this on...help??

    From my downloads folder it recognizes the file as a Pages document, I can preview the entire document, but I try to open the file in multiple ways (from right click, to open from preview, from inside pages) and it refuses to open.  The "opening" prompt comes up, fills ~90% and then I eventually get the SBBOD.  It will fail out if given long enough to think it through or i need to force quit.
    OS- 10.7.5
    Pages: downloaded from App store when i purchased my mac mini last fall. fresh update.

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.

    Check to see if your Mac supports Mavericks (assuming that's what you're trying to install since you're in the Mavericks forum).
    To install Mavericks, you need one of these Macs:
    iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
    MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later),
    MacBook Pro (15-inch or 17-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or later)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Your Mac also needs:
    OS X Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8 already installed

    8 GB or more of available space

  • Re: auto save not working with microsoft office on OS Lion

    Is there anyone else having issues with the auto-save/versions not working with Microsoft office on the OS Lion Upgrade?

    It seems (from some testing I've just done) that:
    1. It's not an explicit choie or preference - it's just there, in the background, invisible
    2. Your textedit document has to have been saved once (i.e given a name), or you've reopened a previously saved document
    If those conditions are met, Textedit will keep the doc saved.
    My test was:
    Open existing docuement
    Make changes
    Wait a few seconds
    Quit Textedit
    Reopen Textedit - and there's the doc with all the changes.
    I ran the test again, quitting Textedit immeditaley I had made the change - and it saved the change successfully.
    Hope that helps

  • Will Pages work with .docx files?

    I am thinking of installing iWork, but cannot tell from Apple promotion pieces if it works with MS Office 2007 and later, which store files in .docx or .exlx format. Does anyone know if Pages works well with later MS formats?

    Shortly  after the secretary of a group I belong to got Word 2007, Pages '09 on my Mac became the defacto gateway through which his files passed to make them readable on another member's Mac (with AppleWorks) and by a couple of PC owners who were still using earlier versions of MS Office. For the fairly simple files (meeting minutes) Pages '09 apparently worked quite well for this task. Several "Thank you"s, no complaints.
    An iWork '09 30 day trial is available for download. It's the full version for 30 days. After the trial period it loses the ability to save or print unless a user licence is purchased and entered. 30 days should be enough for a fair trial of it's suitability to your purposes.

  • How to open .snp files with Microsoft Office 2007 installed? It works with MS Office 2003 but not with MS Office 2007!

    I have MS Office Pro Plus 2007 installed on my computer. I also have MS Office 2003 installed on another computer. Snapshot viewer is installed on both. My work snapshot files works with MS Office Access 2003 but not recognized by MS Office Access 2007. It would not allow me to save them either! Is it a problem with FireFox (3.6.8)? However, I do not have problem opening them up using IE7/8 on both computers. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Are you clicking a download link from an email message on an OWA or webmail site? Do you get the open/save dialog for the .snp files? In that case, you should be able to associate them with the Snapshot viewer. If Firefox does not remember this and you have to do it each time, it usually indicates that the server is not sending a specific content type, just the generic "this is some binary content" content type.

  • Will ole2.create_object work with Open Office Document?

    Dear All,
    Using ole2 package, we have already did a small application which will interact to Microsoft Excel. Now there is a business need to work with Sun's Open office document.
    We used to create a excel object like OLE2.CREATE_OBJ ('Excel.Application');
    Is there any other way of invoking/creating a open office spread sheet using ole2 package. Or any other way ?
    Regards,

    Dear Developer;
    Try this peace of code
    PROCEDURE exec_macro
    IS
    myapplication ole2.obj_type;
    mydocuments ole2.obj_type;
    mydocument ole2.obj_type;
    args ole2.list_type;
    Begin
    myapplication := ole2.create_obj ('Word.Application');
    ole2.set_property (myapplication, 'Visible', 0);
    mydocuments := ole2.get_obj_property (myapplication, 'Documents');
    args := ole2.create_arglist;
    ole2.add_arg (args, PC$FileName);
    mydocument := ole2.invoke_obj (mydocuments, 'Open', args);
    oe2.destroy_arglist (args);

  • Why doesn't my iWeb page work with google chrome?

    Why doesn't my iWeb page work with google chrome?

    Bonjour
    Don't test your website with Google Chrome if you publish it into a local  folder.
    Publish to a server. You need an URL with http:// and ( not file://) to view an iWeb site in Chrome.
    You can also
    activate the web sharing on your computer (Preferences system > Sharing > Check web sharing)
    publish to Sites folder (MacIntosh HD > Users > Home folder >Sites)
    and use the URL (with http) given by the web sharing tab in preferences system http://computer_name.home/~user_name/site_name/

  • Does Lion really not work with Microsoft Office?

    does Lion really not work with Microsoft Office?

    I am afraid I have reverted to Snow Leopard as I was having one problem after another with Lion and for every problem I was solving, two new ones cropped up. I won't bore you with a long list, but one example is whenever I clicked on a single saved document to view, Microsoft Word would open not only that particular document, but also half a dozen other ones as well. Also, my Canon printer did not operate properly nor would Aol. With a lot of other weird stuff happening every day, the final straw was when my Time Capsule wouldn't backup properly, but just 'hang' indefinitely.
    Luckily, I have two HD disks on my iMac and I had installed Lion on HD2 while still retaining Snow Leopard on HD1. I also made a Lion installation disk for future installation when all these software bugs have been sorted.
    I am back to normal service with Snow Leopard and shall not return to Lion until at least the next upgrade/patch becomes available. I so looked forward to Lion as well, but I was fighting a losing battle.
    I would suggest anyone who is in my position trying to stem the tidalwave of software problems with Lion, make an installation disk for Lion and go back to SL until the next upgrade.
