Down loaded new version of Pages. Now can't open a document and get message I need a newer version of Pages to open. How can I get it to open

I download the new Update for Pages (5.2.2)on September 8th. Now I can't open a document I created in 2012. I get message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document" What can I do to get this doc to open

First, open Finder, go to Applications folder and delete iWork '06. Then, open Pages and it will use the most recent version

My Pages app for iPad tells me I can't open a document and even iCloud won't let me download it to my Mac, how can I recover my document?

I really don't know what happened to Pages. First I was using the app, working on a document and everything was fine. I updated it a couple of times and there was no problem. Then, when I tried to open it once more snd continue to work with it, a message appeared telling me that the document had been modified in other iPad. Usually this would make sense but not this time because this file was only used on my iPad. So I chose to keep the document version created on my iPad and **** got loose since then. The document could't open, every time I tried, a message told me "The file cannot be open", so I read A LOT of what to do in this horrible case and tried to open it via iTunes but the option withbthe little arrow that usually works for send the file via e-mail, or to dropbox, or to print appear like I can't use it for anything so most of my options and hopes died. Then on a Mac I tried to dowñoad the file to see if there I could open it or at least change the file code from .pages to .zip and then unzip it but I can't even dowload it form iCloud so you see, I'm desperate. I need help, please! The document is very very important so could you tell me how can I recover it?

Having the same issue, can someone please enlighten us?

I have the latest version of Pages installed, yet there are documents I try to open and the message "you need a newer version of Pages to open this document". Help?

When I try to open some of my documents, the message "you need a newer version of Pages" appears; yet, I have installed the latest/newest version. How do I clear this up? Thanks.

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 5.01 can not open Pages 5.2 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.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5.2 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
Anything that is saved to iCloud 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 over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Get message on iPhone 4S, "Cannot connect to iTunes Store." How can I access the iTunes Store?

I get a Message on iPhone 4S, "Cannot Connect to iTunes Store." How can I access iTunes Store? Yes, I am WiFi connected.

Well folks I finally got my "can't connect to iTunes" issues fixed. Seems that there was an unauthorized change to my email address and account therefore not allowing mr to connect to iTunes.
Here is how I got it fixed.
1. Contacted iTunes store support
2. Followed their instructions and replyed with the following info:
An order number from one of my purchases
Last 4 digits of the c.c. Used for the iTunes store acct
Answer to one of my security questions
And 2 items from this list.
Birthdate
Billing address for Acct
Phone number on acct
It was after all of this that they saw that someone had made an account modification back in February when the issue began. Seems they changed my email address just slightly and that is what kept me from being able to sign in and not a password issue. This was likely due to a phishing email that came out in conjunction with iCloud asking users to change their passwords to a more secure form by adding a capital and number.
To get all of this cleared up it took about 4 days as we emailed back and forth. I also needed a seperate email address they could use to send me info. Once they determined the issues and went to get them fixed by changing the email address associated with the acct and I created a new password I was able to access iTunes with no issues and even my previously thought lost acct balance was there.
Hope this helps

I recently transferred my ipnone service from at&t to another carrier the phone worked fine until i tried to up it with itunes i now have a frozen itunes logo and a plug on the screens my phone is a iphone 3g how can i get my phone to work again?

my ipone 3g is frozen with aitunes logo and plug after i tried to update it from apple. the phone worked fine even thou i changed carriers from at&t to Simple celleur. How can i get my phone to work?

As AT&T has not officially unlocked your phone it must have been hacked to use another carrier. So when you updated it has relocked itself to AT&T. There is no official unlock so this will happen anytime you update.

How can I record a guitar and my voice (only voice with mic) at the same time ?, how can I record a guitar and my voice (only voice with mic) at the same time ?

how can I record a guitar and my voice (only voice with mic) at the same time ? I have one interface with Input 1 mic, Input 2 guitar, everything is working correct, but how can I activate multi recording or something like that... thanks

Set your inputs on your channel strips and make sure you have one set to input 1 and the other input 2. Arm the 2 audio tracks(the "R" in the track header. They will turn red and flash), then hit the record button.

I am using my daughters old phone. When I down loaded every thing to the Cloud. It gave me all of her stuff up to the date I started using it. How do I get her stuff off and my stuff back on.

Ljast year my daughter gave me her old phone. When I tried to put my stuff on Icloud and do Find my Phone. I messed up and now I have all of her old stuff
and none of mine on the phone. Help. I dont know how to fix it or where my stuff is.

If you backed up your phone before doing this, restore your backup.

Not sure why, but my tab page with the 9 boxes is gone and replaced by some thing that piggy backed off another download. How do I get it back?

<pre><i>Locking duplicate thread.

The 9 box new tab page got replaced by something called Delta Search when I downloaded an update for something. I've never had this issue before and I don't know how to get Mozilla to bring back my old 9 box tab page.

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

I need some files that were in my idisk; how can i get them, i need some files that were in my idisk; how can i get them

Whoops!
Didn't download / upload all my files from my idisk account; now i need some for some study work; what can i do to access them?

As Apple announced over 14 months ago, iDisk was shut down at the end of June 2012. They gave a one month extension for any laggards to download their data, and finally turned off the servers, deleting all files at the end of July.
Did you not keep offline backups of these important files, as recommended by Apple? You should never only have one copy of any important file, especially if that one copy if stored on someone elses server you don't have control over, and more importantly when they say it is being shut down forever.

I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my documents

I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

When I click on a saved document or spreadsheet, I get this message You need a newer version of Numbers to open this document. When I go Software update, there is no update for pages or numbers. can't purchase or update?

Trying re-purchasing. won't let me. says to check for updates?
any suggestions

It sounds to me as though you are attempting to open a Pages 09 document with the Pages 08 application. If you do have Pages 09 on your computer, it may be that for some reason an existing Pages 08 application is invoked accidentally.

My macbook is older.. bought in.. 2009. So I realize things may not work exactly the same.
