Document lost on syncing - Help!

I have been using pages to take notes at a conference. The document was an open document in pages. I did my first ever sync with my PC and the document has disappeared from my iPad. There are now no documents showing. Where has the document gone? Can I get it back?

Welcomw Lazosh to the Pages forum! There are not many here using iPad. Maybe you should post in the _[iPad forum|http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=267]_ on this site?
If you had used Pages on a Mac (this probably goes for iPad too) you should first save the document on the Mac before synching over network or doing an export from Pages. You have to make sure you have the original if something goes wrong. Nearly always say yes if asked to save the document!
Could it be you have save the document with the default Untitled name? Maybe you have it somewhere. Otherwise you probably have lost it. Sorry!

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!

I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!!!!

Try this. It worked for me.
I discovered the same problem. I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format. Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story. Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop. Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work. iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app. Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP." ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself). Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT: iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
Hope this helps. Good luck.

I reformated my PC and lost my sync key and I have my iPhone connected to Sync but cannot find my sync key in the iPhone app

I have lost my sync key because I reformatted my PC and didn't have a backup of it and my only other device connected to Sync is my iPhone but I cannot access the sync key in the Firefox Home app. I really wish I didn't have to erase all my sync data as I have some important passwords and bookmarks saved only in Sync.

I did. Safari could not open the show sync key addon and Firefox Home didn't even try to load it for some reason.
The second addon install button is grey when I try to open it with Firefox Home.
Thank you, I appreciate the help but I guess unless there's a way to get the sync key for example via sftp from the iPhone (I have jailbroken) I'm pretty much doomed. I tried looking around the Firefox Home app folder but could not find the sync key in there. If someone knows where to look for the key it would be helpful, in case it isn't encrypted.

My iWork documents are not syncing?

My iWork documents are not syncing between my iPad, iPhone and iMac. This seems to have happened since I upgraded to 10.8.2? Any help?

Thanks, I knew that though and nothing was happening.
However, since I asked the question my documents have started to sync. No idea why, nothing has changed in my settings apart from a restart of all devices...but it's working so issue solved!

Computer crashed - lost itunes - need help synching to new computer

Hi,
Well last night I was the lucky recipient of a virus...on my old Desktop computer. After battling it for 2.5 hours I had to give up, it basically doesn't work anymore. This was the computer that I've always had itunes on, and the one that I sync both my iPhone 3Gs and iPod with.
Can someone please tell me:
a)Once I install iTunes on my new laptop, will it give me issues when I try to resync my ipod? Luckily I have the music backed up on an external hard drive. But will it allow me to sync?
b)how can I sync my iphone to the new computer/iTunes, without losing all my apps and pictures? Everything was backed up on my OLD computer and therefore lost.
Please help - it totally ***** and I've never had to move stuff over before.

Try a search as this is asked almost daily. Easier to find an older post than to retype all the details.

Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly. Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync. Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

Solutions?

No, I never really found an easy solution. I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device. In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs. A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup. It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad. But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost. When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might. If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it. I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.

How to get back music lost while syncing to itunes?

how to get back music lost while syncing to itunes?

If the music you lost during the sync process is no longer on the iPod, in your iTunes library, or in a backup elsewhere, I'm afraid you are out of luck.
You may be able to redownload any lost purchases via iCloud (pending you live in a country where iCloud has gone live).

I up graded to the new software, and I lost the sync to my calender and verizon yahoo. How do I get it back?

I upgraded to the ne software on the I Pad and lost my sync with my verizon yahoo calander. How do I get it back?

Then just select the calendar to sync in iTunes again in the Info Tab before you sync. If you were running iOS 5 and were using iCloud go to Settings>iCloud>Calendar>On.

Dozens of open tabs lost! Synced them, reinstalled Windows and Firefox, set up Sync, looked up "tabs on other devices" in history - Only a third or so listed.

Dozens of open tabs lost! Synced them, reinstalled Windows and Firefox, set up Sync, looked up "tabs on other devices" in history -> Only a third or so listed.
Usually, when I reinstall Windows, I manually backup my Firefox bookmarks and open tabs, but because Sync has worked perfectly for me in the past, I didn't do it this time. I backed up all my other files and settings and whatnot from the rest of my system, then in Firefox I hit the Sync button (put in on the GUI so I see if it's syncing or done) for the last time, waited until the green rotating dot was gone, closed Firefox, shut down the system, formatted the drive and reinstalled Windows and Firefox. After setting up Sync I waited a while to make sure everything is on my system.
Then I wanted to have all the tabs and windows open as I had on the old system, so I went to the history and "tabs on other devices". I could already see from the small size of the list, that tabs were missing. I went through all of them, opened them and sorted them into windows.
-> Maybe about two thirds of the tabs I had open on my old system are gone!
Not just new tabs that might not have been synced (although the button showed sync was complete), but also old tabs (from weeks ago) that must have been synced before. Actually maybe especially or even only the old ones are lost. And the lost tabs are not just from one of the open windows, but from several.
What can I do to recover my lost tabs?
They contain important websites that I didn't bookmark yet, articles that I wanted to read, windows with dozens of tabs on a topic that I did some research for and stuff like that.
What does the green circle mean? Does it indicate that the sync is complete (to the Firefox servers) or just that the changes have been saved locally and set up for some next scheduled sync with the Firefox servers?
Further info:
I always run the newest stable release of Firefox (v19 on both systems). Old system was Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation, new system is Windows 8 Pro. My used Sync quota is about 10 MB. I had 4 Firefox windows open with different amount of tabs in each of them, from 10 to maybe 80 with an overall amount of 150-200. Most of them weren't loaded. Firefox start is set to "load last session" and tabs are set to "load when selected". Memory usage 500 MB - 1 GB.

I have most of the items bookmarked. Having 200 - 300 tabs open saves time, since I don't have to go to the bookmarks, if the tabs are already open. One problem has been crashes, but as long as I can restore a previous session, I can still get to the data. I had quite a few tabs open when I was planning to purchase a new computer. I also follow the stock market, and the weather. I was also looking at various VIrtual Private Networking (VPN) sites. At one time, I probably had 20 - 50 tabs open, just for those. I did bookmark a few, but unfortunately lost the VPN tabs, when Firefox crashed. Even if I don`t go to a particular group of tabs very often, leaving it open is faster, especially since I will know where they are. I often put the computer in standby mode, rather than shutting it off, especially if I will remain in the same location.

HT4859 how do i restore documents lost from iCloud?

how do i restore documents lost from iCloud?

Documents do not get lost, they do get deleted. If you deleted - you need to look for local back up.
If you "lost" you need to check if they still in the cloud at icloud.com

I've lost all my help files

Hi,
the other day when I started up LabVIEW I got an error saying it had to install a runtime engine, no idea why this happened but I fixed it by reinstalling my drivers. Anyway since I did that I've lost all my help files. The context help works fine, but when I click "VI, function and how-to help", or "Click here for more help" in the context help window, nothing happens. It doesn't even open up a window any more.
Any ideas what the problem could be? I'm not sure which disk the files are on so I'm not sure how to reinstall them.
I'm running LabVIEW 7.1 Full Development System on Windows 2000.
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick,
Sorry to hear about you losing the help files, which drivers did you re-install when you had the initial problem?
The help files are located in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\help, you could check whether files in this folder have been deleted or your access has somehow been restricted to this folder. If there are a set of compiled HTML files there, try opening those individually and see if they open OK.
Can you open Help from the LabVIEW Help menu (Help>>Contents) or pressing F1?
I would try repairing LabVIEW from the Add/Remove programs section of the Control Panel first, and see if this helps.
Please let me know how you get on!
