Do I need to uninstall pages '08 before installing the newest version?

I bought a new MacPro in November 2013 and the technician transferred my iLife 'o8 package with Pages in it. 
Can I install the newest Pages and Numbers over the existing ones, or do I need to uninstall the old ones first?
Can't seem to find a straight answer on the internet.
Thanks for a quick yes or no!  If it's a 'yes', do you know how, or have a link that says how?

The deal is I want the pages in my iPad mini to talk with the pages version on the laptop.  That's the only reason I even want it since I usually use Microsoft Office, which talks to my windows friends with more ease.
Just in case anyone else is reads this thread, I just discovered that in the app store that when I clicked on 'purchases' there was a section that said I could download pages, numbers, and keynote for free.  I was ready to purchase them individually.  Saved from my own folly at the last minute...
Thanks again Fruhulda - if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have found the free stuff.

  • Do I need to uninstall the old Firefox before installing the new version?

    I really don't have any problems with Firefox, just trying to find out if it is necessary to uninstall Firefox 4, before installing the new version?

    no, in fact, it's better to update it instead of installing the new one separately so that you don't loose your bookmarks and such.
    To update, open firefox and go to Help and chose About Firefox. you should see an update button there.

  • I have an academic version of Final Cut Studio on my laptop and recently purchased the most recent Full version of Final Cut Studio. Do I need to uninstall the academic version before installing the new version?

    I have an academic version of Final Cut Studio on my laptop and recently purchased the most recent Full version of Final Cut Studio. Do I need to uninstall the academic version before installing the new version? I ask because this is not an upgrade, but a completely new version.

    I'm with Jim on this.  It always seems to work out better if you do not install over another version.  You can use this app (freeware - thanks to Jon Chappel) to completely remove ALL Final Cut Studio apps and components: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/
    Once that's done, install your newly purchased version.

  • Recently I updated to Maverick -- I also updated Numbers, Pages and Keynote.  NOW, I cannot open my pages documents.  I get a message that I need a newer version of Pages.  I have the newest version (5.2).  How do I get around this to view my documents?

    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 almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • Manually installing...do we need to have pevious Firefox versions installed before installing the latest version?

    We have found many versions ...NOTE: We perfer manual install...not auto updating.
    Firefox 3.0.15,
    Firefox 3.5.2,
    Firefox 3.5.5,
    Firefox 3.6.10,
    Firefox 3.6.6,
    Firefox 3.6.9,
    Firefox 7.0.1,
    Firefox 8.0.1,
    Firefox 9.0.1,
    Firefox 10.0,
    Firefox 10.0.1,
    Firefox 11.0,
    Firefox 12.0,
    Firefox 14.01.
    Could you please confirm whether we have to manually upgrade all the versions before manually installing the latest version (15.0.1).
    Please clarify.

    If you are updating you only need to install the latest version of Firefox (15.0.1, but 16 is being released tomorrow). Once you are updated though, you should be able to use the internal updater, it does just as good of a job.

  • Do i need to uninstall excel 2004 before installing 2011?

    I am upgranding to Lion and Microsoft Excel and Office will not run under Lion.
    I am upgrading to office 2011.
    Do I need to uninstall office 2004 prior to installing 2011.
    If so how do I unintall 2044.
    thanks

    Not a bad idea to remove the old first. There is a removal tool. I don't have Office 2004 on a computer here but, in Office 2008, this path of drives and folders leads to the Uninsaller:
    Macintosh HD > Applications > Microsoft Office 2008 > Additional Tools > Remove Office
    Although the path may be slightly different in 2004, I think the tool has been named "Remove Office" for most versins of Office. If all eles fails, try a Spotlight search for it.
    Note that the uninstaller will not affect Office files you have created.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Firefox keeps telling me to upgrade. Even after complete uninstall and installing the newest version. Also, each time I restart my desktop I have to acknowledge about 12 add-ons. After that all works fine. Even when I restart Firefox.

    I already tried uninstalling all add ons and then reinstall them again. Can the problem be related to the Siphon add on (which I no longer use)?

    You posted your troubleshooting information in another thread ([[/questions/907656]]) that seems to indicate that you use or have used that profile folder with a lot of Firefox versions and are overriding the compatibility check (extensions.checkCompatibility.12.0).
    You need to use a separate profile for each Firefox version if you want to use multiple Firefox versions.
