Had to uninstall iWork trial since I bought the pages app and it wouldn't let me print or save.  Now the app store says I have pages installed but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy and am getting frustrated!

Ooops, guess I didn't need to post everything in the title - sorry!  I bought the pages app - but couldn't save or print so with some online searching found that I had to uninstall the iWork trial which had expired.  I did that - but now I can't figure out how to re-install the pages app!!  The app store says it's installed, but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it.  I'm not very computer savvy - and am a first time Mac user and am getting extremely frustrated!  I e-mailed some help center and they can't seem to help me either.  I would appreciate any help/advice that can fix my problem - thanks in advance!!

OK Apple has stuffed up the demo version upgrade process so the first thing you need to do is get rid of the demo.
That includes getting rid of the files in the system.
The instructions how to do that are here:
Note That where you see / that is the sequence of folders, each nested inside each other.
User/Library/Preferences the com.apple.iwork.Keynote.plist
Means the User (you, the little home icon, whatever you are called on your computer) then the Library folder inside that and then the Preferences folder inside that.
Lion initially hides the System folders from you so you have to go to the Finder > Menu > hold down the option key and click on GO > Library to see it.

  • I just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and before I delete my old phone, I want to make sure all my photos were in icloud, but I can't find them anywhere. Why? I know it may take weeks to download my 14,000 pics, but I want to make sure they're there.

    Extract the photos from the phone to your computer like you would with any other digital camera.
    PhotoStream is NOT permanent storage and iCloud photos is in beta, meaning it's not fully cooked yet and you may lose data stored in it.

  • Application Manager says Acrobat X is installed - but I can't find it on my PC. Help.

    Application Manager says Acrobat X is installed - but I can't find it on my PC. Can you help please.

    I am having the same problem. Control Panel shows it is installed(but all that does is let me uninstall it), but I can't find it anywhere. When installing it, it said installation completed, but some components failed to install. Would apprciate any help to figure out how to install this product. I have had no trouble downloading any of the other products I wanted from the Cloud.

  • Looking for Installation package "AcroPro.msi"--my computer says it's already installed, but I can't find it or get it to run

    Hi Billstrom,
    What was the Acrobat version installed on your machine.
    You may visit this link to download Acrobat version you own: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
    If you have windows, click on Start > in the search box , type Adobe Acrobat and wait and see if you have Acrobat listed there or you may visit  C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat and look for "Acrobat.exe " or "Acrobat". It should be there if you have Acrobat Already installed.

  • Inbox says I have unread messages but I can't find them

    My inbox says I have 45 unread messages (and the number gets higher every day) but I can't find them.  I have gone through all my emails but everything has been read.  How do I fix this?

    This was driving me crazy as well.  Here is how I solved it:
    1. Right click on Inbox and Mark all as read
    2. Go to each subfolder and Mark All Read
    3. Run outlook.exe /cleanviews (enter it in Start panel to run this command)
    4. Close Outlook and restart as Administrator
    5. Again Mark all read (repeat in subfolders)
    6. Close and restart normally
    The unread count disappeared.  No clue where this ghostly email resided, but given that I checked
    all subfolders,  I feel ok that I did not miss anything. Be sure to check your rules too, in case you are moving incoming messages and don't remember setting up such a  rule. 
    Good luck!

  • I used to have iPhone 4 and now I have an iPhone 5S iCloud restored everything but whatsapp and now I can install it as it says it's already installed but I can't find the icon anywhere and I have searched the phone but uselessly !!? Please help I need it

    I can't uninstall whatsapp as I can't find the icon anywhere

    Did you try:
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    If so then could be a hardware problem sinc it also says:
    If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.

  • Need X11... mac says it's installed but I can't find it anywhere

    My computer won't let me install X11 from the apple site because it says a newer version is already installed on my computer... except that I can't find said program anywhere. I don't have my discs, they're in florida and I'm in NY. I didn't install things off of the disks because I assumed that everything I'd possibly need would be already installed. What can I do? I can't access the invisble X11 that's already "installed". I know this because I tried to install OpenOffice and it said I needed X11, and told me where to download it.
    So I need a program to install a program, but I already have the needed program, except that it's invisible.

    Yes, a site helping me install OpenOffice was telling me that I hve to go to the library and remove the X11User.pkg file in order to force it to uninstall so I could ACTUALLY install it... but that file is not in the library. I do hve administrator's access, too.

  • HT4993 My app store says i have six updates, but won't load/show them when i open the app store and go to the updates. How do i fix this?

    For about two weeks i've been trying to get my updates, but nothing works. I've power cycled my phone. Reset my data connection. Closed out apps. And nothing seems to work. If anyone has any tips on how i can get my updates to open so i can download them, it would be hugely appreciated.

    Software troubleshooting in order...
    Restart: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Power Off slider appears. Power off then power back on.
    If no change...
    Reset: Press the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for ten seconds until the Apple logo appears. Note: No data will be lost
    If no change...
    Restore: First from backup... If no change as New > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • Sky Player - I am trying to register for the service but it says I have missing plugins but Firefox can't find any

    I am trying to sign-up to Sky Player however I cannot do so because when I press the 'sign-up' button on the web page it refuses to take me to next page and the Firefox has a banner saying 'missing plugins'. When I click on that Firefox cannot find the missing plugins! I manually download some but it makes no difference.

    I rented a movie a few hours ago and never finished it.  I can't view it on my Apple TV nor on my Computer.  When I go to rent it again it says you have already rented this movie, but I can't find it anywhere.  How do I watch the remainder of the rental?

    I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
    SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
    Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

  • I lost my iPhone and I was hoping that my photos were being saved to iCloud, but I can't find them anywhere. I read that iCloud saves them for thirty days, but where?

    I lost my iPhone and I was hoping that my photos were being saved to iCloud, but I can't find them anywhere. I read that iCloud saves them for thirty days, but where?

    You are referring to Photo Stream. Photo Stream syncs the photos taken with your device to all of your device.
    It's not a photo storage service, so photos are deleted 30 days after being added to Photo Stream. You can't access to your Photo Stream photos from http://www.icloud.com, but only from an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (using the Photos app), Mac (using iPhoto '11 or Aperture 3 with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion) or PC (with iCloud Control Panel).
    In all of these devices, you have the option of copying them to the device, so they will be kept after 30 days
