Docs say they need a 'newer version' even though I have the latest Pages 5 release?

I have several documents that I created in the latest version of Pages 5 (version 5.0 (1465)). Last week, they were all working fine in Pages 5 and were saved to that format. Now, when I go to open any of the documents, I get an alert message that the document can't be opened because I need a "newer version" of Pages to access them. I have gone to the App Store to check for updates; I'm at the latest release.
Just for fun, I tried opening in iOS versions (no success) and even opening in copies of the old Pages '09 apps. Nothing works now. I'm also sure it's not a corrupt file issue, since this is occurring today on multiple Pages files.
What happened, and how can I get my documents to open again? I spent a lot of time getting these docs perfect, and I am desparate not to start over from scratch.
Thanks for any advice!
PS: This problem is occurring even after I deleted all old iWork / Pages apps from the disk, so that's not the problem. I had seen that as a recommendation for previous upgrade cycles.

Please clarify....

Why does Numbers say I need a newer version when I am using the latest version

I am getting the error message "You need a newer version of Numbers to open this file". However, this is a file I created yesterday with this version of numbers.
What gives ? If I ck my numbers version it says no updates available.

Hi Steve,
This is confusing to a lot of people. When you downloaded the new version of Numbers the old version remained on your Mac. The new version is in Applications. The old version is in a subfolder within Applications. The icons look similar so it's easy to think you're trying to open a document with the new version whereas in fact the old version has been activated and is trying to open it.
If you tend to open documents from Finder then right-click and Open With ... Numbers.app (3.0).
Or you can open Numbers 3.0 (the one in the Applications folder, not the iWork '09 subfolder) and open the document from there.
Any icons you had on the Dock before the upgrade are of course still pointing to the old version.

The install icon has this sign on it

You can't install Lion over Leopard. To install Lion, a requirement is Snow Leopard. So you can either upgrade to Snow Leopard first or you can make a bootable Lion install disc and use that to wipe your hard drive and install a fresh copy of Lion.
So to make a disk would require you to purchase Snow Leopard and upgrade to 10.6.8 so you can use the App Store, unless you have access to another computer to download it from with your Apple ID. Remember it is about a 3.4GB download.
Good Luck

On opening google I get the message:"WARNING! Your Flash Player may be out of date. Please update to continue" - on clicking ok I am diverted to Flash Player Pro download site?? Is this a Adobe product? And why even though i have the latest flash player version I repeatedly get the message?

This is not a message that Adobe is providing, and I recommend that you not click on the link. It sounds as though you might have malware on your computer.

Metadata under the Page Properties is not there - even though I have the latest March 15 Update

Anyone,
Metadata under the Page Properties is not there - even though I have the latest March 15 Update. ?? Help. Why is this?

It's only there for "normal" pages, not master pages.

Hi - I've brought the new iphone 5 but can't download my music from my itunes account even though I have the latest version (10.7). All i can see is that my account is not showing the iphone 5 as a 'managed device' and i dont know how to get this added ?

Hi - I've brought my iphone 5 but cant seem to download my music from my itunes account onto it. I've downloaded the latest version of itunes as i heard this could be a problem but still no joy. The phone tries to sync when i plug it all in to the pc and even has the capacity bar showing about 12gb of audio but there is still nothing downloaded onto the phone.
The only thing i can see that might be causing the problem is that when i go into my itunes account it doesn't show that the iphone 5 is an option is the 'managed device' section but i dont know how i can add the new iphone 5 to this....
Can anyone please advise me on what to do ?
Many thanks !

You can only sync to one computer/iTunes library. To make this your syncing computer:

My plugins don't work even though I have the latest version of adobe flash and java. )

I then click on the feature update plug ins it take me to the adobe site I down load the latest version of adobe flash only to run into the same problem over again. I've tried updating this feature both manual & auto but with no success.

Hi there
No need to get testy. Lilybiri was being spot on with the comparison.
The only solution for you will be to uninstall the Flash player, then locate an older version of the Flash player and install it on the Windows XP you have. Captivate is now at version 8 and several years have passed since version 1.1. You will likely not make 1.1 work with Windows 7 or Windows 8. In fact, the only way I'm aware to remotely make it work on those operating systems is by first ensuring you have the Professional or Ultimate version, then installing the Windows XP mode Virtual Machine.
Here is a link for uninstalling the Flash Player
And here is a link for the older versions
Sorry, but you are on your own to sort exactly how far back you will need to go to find a version of Flash Player that works with this version of Captivate. And keep in mind, that even though you finally get a Flash Player version that allows it to run, you will only be able to run it on some form of Windows XP. It will not run on Windows 7 or 8 unless you install the VM. And when you do that, you will be stuck inside the VM and will not be able to record anything outside it in the 7 or 8 environment.

I can't stream videos even though I have the latest update??

When I try to watch videos with Flash Player, it says I need the latest update and security. I have downloaded multiple times. HELP I have a Mac desk top

You write "downloaded", but did you also install it?
But you may also have an older version still installed; try the instructions at How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X

I keep getting the message that I need to download a new version even though I have downloaded the new version.

Every time I log in I get the message that I am using an outdated version of Firefox and need to download an updated version. I do this but still keep getting the same message.

See this - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser

Every time i log on, it says firefox says i'm unprotected, and must download new version, even though I have already downloaded it 3 times.

I've downloaded firefox 5.0 three times, and every time i log on to my computer, it says i am unprotected, and must install the newest version, which i have... 3 times.

Either you have both Firefox 5.0 and 3.5.19 installed or you useragent is stuck to the old version.

Says i need to verify account even though i have

I finally got the account set up and now when i try to log in or purchase an app, it tells me that i have not verified my account. I have verified my account. I have been trying to get this thing going for about 2 hours and getting really frustrated. Starting to consider returning my ipod.

I dunno if this will work for you but I had the same issue today and had to redo what I did about two weeks ago.
I went to "Settings" then to "General" and scrolled all the way done to "Reset"
I didnt do a reset that erased data, just the ipad settings.
I had to re-enter all my wifi stuff but after trying to log back into facetime it worked fine.
It's a pain in the arse (second time I've had to do this in a couple of weeks) but it worked for me, Good Luck

I want to completely remove the advert ban application. Even though I have the latest Firefox version I cannot access my add-ons. How do I resolve these issues?

I have Firefox version 7.01.

You should be able to see the add-ons and plugins by using
* '''Tools -> Add-ons''' (Or you may use keyboard shortcut '''Ctrl + Shift + A''' )
** then once in Add-ons Manager select the tab '''|extensions|''' or '''| plugins|'''
What is the ''advert ban application'' that you refer to ? <br>this may be some program that was installed on Windows XP and may need to be removed from the control panel of XP, or is it part of a security suite ?

My address book is frozen in time machine even though I have the latest version of Lion.

I deleted some contacts, that looked like duplicates, on my iPad this morning. It deleted both cards, not just the duplicate. I have iCloud turned on and now I cannot restore the contacts, or in fact any previous version of my address book from Time Machine!

What is the exact message that you are getting? A screenshot, perhaps: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933

I get the message "Cannot open because this project was created with a newer version" whereas I do have the latest 2014 version installed on my PC

To provide all the info, I have created this project on my Desktop with Mercury engine and I'm now trying to open it on my laptop on which I don't have a powerful graphic card - ad therefore no Mercury Engine. Could that be the problem? Thanks.

Open Premiere on you desktop and your laptop and check the build which is under Help/About Adobe Premiere Pro.
MPE has no part in this.
