Don't have iwork on mac, but can i still use pages on ipad 2?

I was planning on getting pages for my ipad 2 that I just ordered recently. But if I don't have iwork on my mac, can I still open up the document on my computer? I have microsoft word on my mac. I would just like to know if there is any way to open up a pages document on my mac from my ipad if I don't (and not planning on getting) pages for my mac. Thank you!

Since you don't intend to get iWork for your Mac and use Office, consider one of the Office compatible apps available for the iPad. QuickOffice and Docs2Go open/save Office files natively. There are trade-offs for each of the two and you should search out reviews of each to see which is best suited but in my opinion either would be a better solution than iWork for someone who has no intention of using iWork on their Mac.

  • I have three wireless bars but can't open any pages

    Just got the iPhone yesterday. It played fine with my no secure Wifi connection. It won't on the encryped one at work. It found the network, asked for the connection, has three bars and an IP address but can't connet.
    Any ideas?
    Rebooted, renew lease, etc.

    We have several PC's in the union office. As a test I got on the one Mac (in fact I'm on it now). Disconnected the network cable and got to this page via the wireless connection.
    I am the computer guru for the union (but there is a network guy). This computer is connected to the same network, same password, nothing special.
    I added the iPhone MAC address to the router just this morning. I got on the first web page I went to but that was all it did all day.
    Rebooted the router twice and unplugged and reset once.

  • ICloud email reaches mail.app on Mac, but can't load on web, on iPad, nor in iPhone. Why?

    After getting "wrong Id or password" message on iPad and iPhone, I followed  the troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple. Step recommends checking the web app for Mail on iCloud.com. The web interface for Mail on iCloud refuses to load. Situation reported to Apple. Any clues?

    If it's treating the PDF as an image, and since PDFs can be viewed with Preview or Photoshop - both Image editors - loading remmotes images (or attachments it treats as images) might cause this.
    I don't have an iPad, but the Mail app is the same and the preferences are the same in Mountain Lion on my Mini.

  • My kids are on my email account.  I want them to now have their own accounts.  Can they still use all of my music and apps?

    I have my kids' iPods on my account.  I want to put them on their own accounts.  Is there a way I can do this without having them lose all of the stuff on my account?  And can they still sync things that I download if they're using my computer?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your children are under 13, you should open 2 new accounts for yourself and let them use it. They can use these ID's for iCloud and so have their own email! contacts! calendars etc, but still share your original ID for iTunes for apps, music, etc. You can continue to sync them with your computer.

  • I just moved and wireless internet is now provided for me. I am not using my Time Capsule as a router anymore but can I still use it as my storage device wirelessly?  So far I cannot get it to work. Please help.

    Hi,
    I just moved to a new place.  I used to have my own internet setup and used my Airport Time Capsule as my router.  Now that I don't need to use it as a router I would still like to use it as a storage device for my pictures.  Can I still do that wirelessly or do I have to plug it into my computer?  And if I do (which would really be crumby) do I just use a USB cable?
    Please help.  I have a lot of work stored on it and I am feeling pretty stuck at the moment.
    Thank you,
    Charlie

    You can use your Time Capsule in your new network in a number of ways. One would be as a NAS device which I believe you are looking to do.
    To do so, you would connect the TC to the new router by Ethernet. You would also want to reconfigure the TC as a bridge and disable its wireless radios.
    You can do both of these using the AirPort Utility, as follows:
    Run the AirPort Utility.
    Select the TC, and then, select Edit.
    Select the Network tab.
    Change Router Mode to: Off (Bridge Mode)
    Select the Wireless tab.
    Change Network Mode to: Off
    Select Update and allow the TC to restart.

  • Downloaded a TV show on my Mac - but it is still showing on my iPad as a paid download

    This happened once before...
    Usually if I download a TV show in iTunes on my Mac I can later go to my iPad and, using the same iTunes account, download the show for free. Instead of $1.99 the button just says "download."
    But for a show I downloaded a few hours ago it is showing $1.99 on my iPad.
    Last time I tried to contact Apple support about this and they never replied.
    A few days later though I noticed I could download the show on my iPad for free.
    Is there some time delay between purchase of a TV show and when you can download it for free to your iPad?
    Thanks,

  • Can't download free iWork on Mac but can on iPad

    I bought a new iPad Air and was able to download the iWork apps for free no problem. I can also download them on my iPhone. I've tried to get them onto my iMac (early 2009) from the App store and it doesn't work, it still shows the full price instead of just Download. I have Mavericks installed, is there anything else i need to do? I'm definately using the same Apple ID.

    Actually I found another thread that answers my question. They're only available for iOS not Mac

  • If I have iWorks on my iMac, can I transfer it to my iPad 2?

    Hi all- I was just wondering if there is any way I can transfer the iWorks application I have right now on my Mac to my iPad (2nd Gen.) I mean, If it is possible why waste 30 bucks?
    All feedback is appreciated!

    Hi. The versions of the Apps for the Mac will not work on the iPad, nor the other way.

  • I'll be buying a ASUS Prime tablet soon and want to know if I can sync it with my PC at home. If I don't have a wireless phone connection, can I still do it with just the wireless effect.

    Seems like the Firefox Sync is just for PC's and phones. If I buy a Tablet that has wireless capability but I'm not going to buy a phone plan, ex. with AT&T, will I still be able to sync my tablet info with my PC at home? Does it work like McCloud?

    Sync can work with any instance of Firefox 4 or higher. It will sync your bookmarks, history and passwords to any other Firefox instance. https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-up-firefox-sync

  • Moving to Sky but can I still use my BT internet e...

    Been with BT internet for years but am moving to Sky. Will I still be able to use my @btinternet.com e mail  address after I have left? I did go to aol years ago but came back. In the time I was away I was still able to use my @btinternet.com email. Is that still the case today?

    If you still have your BT Broadband connection, then take a look at this link for the answer.

  • HT1551 Apple TV connected using Ethernet....can I still use airplay with iPad & iPhone ?

    Never mind. I found it

    ethernet mean that it send data out into the ether and devices recieve the data if it's meant for them
    so it's not a point to point connection std.
    so the ipad/phone does not connect or talk directly with the appletv
    they send their data out into the ethernet
    so unles your wifi router keep wired ethernet and wifi on 2 seperate unbridged networks then
    it will be transparent to the ipad if the appletv is on wifi or wired

  • I have an old powerPC G4. dual 867 512 MB. my optical drive is having trouble reading my leopard installer.  I was going to try to use remote install but i don't have a network where I can connect both the mac and the windows laptop.  any suggestions?

    I'm just trying to revive my old PowerPC G4/ dual 867MHz 512MB.  Unfortunately I am unable to install from disc since my optical drive, although still working, is somehow not able to read the leopard installer.  I wanted to try the remote install option but have limited resources and don't have a network where I can have both the Mac desktop and windows laptop communicate.  I read somewhere that I can use a crossover cable to connect the two directly.  I'm still trying to see if I can get an external DVD-ROM as another option.  Any suggestions?

    Your Mac doesn't need a crossover cable, it auto-switches...

    But I have no idea how that will help you install from a Windows computer.
    If you get an external DVD drive it needs to be Firewire & Mac bootable.
