Help - can't open page to edit in iWeb

I have built a website on iWeb but now when I open it page doe snot open just the top menu bar of iWeb. Does anyone know how I can retrieve the page? Thanks

Rachael ~ Glad that worked. Sometimes iWeb's Domain file becomes so corrupted that it can never be opened again. So always back it up — perhaps via _Time Machine_ or SuperDuper! (or both.) ...Then you can go back to using an old but uncorrupted version — see this Apple doc:
_iWeb: Backing up your Domain file_
By the way, rather than posting again, you can edit a post within 15 minutes of posting — just click on the pencil icon in the post or reply you want to edit. Then make your changes and click on the Edit Message button to post those changes. Each edit re-starts your 15 minute window for re-editing.

I cannot open pages; I am told I can't open pages while updating. I did not know I was updating. I cannot open a new pages document. My menu list is ok, but when I click on a document it won't open. Can you help?

I cannot open pages. The message says, can't open pages while being updated. I did not knowingly update anything.
The program is stuck in this mode. can you help?

Your copy of Pages may have gotten stuck when downloading. This article explains how to fix a stuck Mavericks download; the same procedure should help with any application:

I can't open pages files from USB and iCloud due to : "The necessary file index.xml is missing".

I can't open pages files from USB and iCloud due to : "The necessary file index.xml is missing". Original file is written on iMac (2014) and saved to an USB stick and then transferred till macBook Pro (2009, Yosemite) for editing. Then I shared the files by iCloud but I am not able to open them on iMac again. Niether can I use the USB stick to transfer the edited files back. I'm running Pages '09 4,1 (923) on the macBook and Pges 5.5.2 (2120) on the iMac.

Pages 5.5.2 is extremely incompatible with even other Macs let alone the vast majority of PC and MsWord users out there, so not a good idea to leap into the fire with both eyes shut.
After having done that to the first Pages 5 files, Apple has repeatedly done it to even the most minor point updates. Apple can't even anticipate its own erratic changes let alone what everyone else needs doing.

I can't open Pages app on iMac

Hi all, I can't open Pages app on my computer. These are the specs:
iMac 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5, 4GB, 2/3 of a TB free storage capacity,
Yosemite version 10.10.2
Originally I had iWork 09 and since I've been updating from the app store since they are available in there. Now version 5.5.2
I wanted to create a new document and explore the templates available for it but when I click the icon of the Pages app or the name in the Finder apps list, it won't open, instead it opens another window for me to choose what I want to open -see pic below-, and as you can see from the light gray color I can't choose the app from there.
I open the app store to see if I needed to update it and it is already done. So I don't know what to do... Can anybody help please? Thanks

If one clicks that extreme left icon, the Favorites panel disappears, leaving the Application view we see posted. Additionally, the OP has the
Finder Preferences ▸ Advanced ▸ All My Files checked, instead of their login directory (house icon).
This just adds to the mayhem. Once Finder Preferences is fixed, then the OP can click Applications, and from that lengthy menu, select their login directory, or Documents.
Why the OP did not just click New Document and review the bundled templates, is a question mark. Or click Launchpad in the Dock, to launch Pages.

Can't open Pages Documents

I've upgraded all my iWork documents and now I can't open things in Pages. I'm stuck on an endless loop of "You need to be using the most updated version .... which you can get in the app store.... blah blah blah" I'm suing the most up-to-date versioin. I'm using Pages 4.3 and the document I'm trying to open was created using the most updated version. HELP.
Thanks
Carrie

You have both versions of Pages on your Mac and are simply opening the wrong document in the wrong version.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
Pages ;'09 can not open Pages 5 documents and Pages 5 will alter/damage older Pages '09 files and not open any other.
Pages 5 is very much a downgrade missing over 90+ features.
Best to go back to using Pages '09:

HT1750 Pages, This document can't be opened because it's too old. To open it, save it with Pages 09 first still can't open pages document

I recently purchased a new Mac and I am having difficulty opening older Pages documents.
Pages, This document can't be opened because it's too old. To open it, save it with Pages 09 first still can't open pages document

Either you have access to Pages ’08 v3, Pages ’09 v4, or neither. One of these older, but more functional versions of Pages can open, and export the document in question to Word. Preview on OS X 10.9.5 and Yosemite can view Pages ’08 documents (in my experience). It is not obvious to me that Preview may be using the installed Pages ’09 v4.3 to assist in opening these '08 documents.
Once opened in Preview, you can select/paste text into Pages v5.2.2, or v5.5. If you want the images from the PDF, then export it from Preview as PDF, and then drag/drop onto latest free LibreOffice icon in the Dock, which will open the PDF for editing. Select, copy, and paste the images into Pages v5, or incorporate into Text boxes, or Shapes. When pasted, images will be in their original size/resolution, not necessarily as small as they appear in the PDF.
If the second paragraph is a chore, then follow Peggy's advice above on the sources for purchase of Pages ’09.
In the future, I would not recommend trusting document architecture to Apple, and use a more accessible format (.doc/x) for better cross-platform access, longevity, and application choice. You may find LibreOffice, or Office for Mac 2011 a better choice for features.

HT4157 My iPad. Oonnects to other wifi it used to connect to my work wifi but it will. Not connect now what is work I am connected with my iPhone but iPad will. Not connect or it says safari can not open page

I can connect my iPhone to my work wifi but when I try to connect my IPad it will not connect. It says safari can not open page. What's up with that I have used IPad connected to work wifi before

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Can't Open Pages

Can't open pages or keynote or numbers.
There is a question mark over all of the applications on the dock, and they don't show up in my applications folder in finder. I tried finding them in the spotlight and they didn't show up there either. I tried updating the software and got this message:
An eligible Keynote application was not found in the location /Applications/iWork '09.
Pages won't let me open any documents that I have done in pages. Please help because I use pages and other iwork applications for everything in school.
Stephanie

I don't know which one it is because he never told me, when I got my computer back I noticed iwork was on my computer and it has always worked just fine until like two days ago when it wouldn't open a pages document that I had been working on earlier that day. He never gave me any information about it so I don't have a serial number and I don't have a dvd. I can't access a serial number if there is one because basically I guess iwork doesn't exist on my computer right now. I'm sorry if this isn't helpful but that is all I know.

Yosemity safari https can´t open page

When our users with Yosemity installed try to connect to the internal site https://privat.alecta.se in Safari, they get a timeout and "Can´t open page" message. If the refresh the page they get connected to the site. It works on other operating systems such as Maverick, Windows regardless of browser.

Hi Dan
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Usually "can't find the server" means the DNS codes supplied by your Internet Provider are somewhat lacking (Firefox has its own Network mechanism, so the two are not comparable). The alternative is to add DNS codes from other sources. Here's how to do it in Leopard:
To add the codes, go to System Preferences>Network. Click on your internet connection - either Ethernet or Airport, then "advanced". In the DNS panel enter on separate lines the following OpenDNS codes: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. Select "OK", then "apply".
In the Network panel, if Ethernet or Airport (whichever you use) is not at the top of the list, click on the "gear icon" at the left bottom. Select "set service order". When the help box opens drag your connection type to the top of the list. Select "apply" when complete.
Restart Safari.

New motherboard; now I can't open Pages w/out buying it

Hopefully, there's a simple answer for this prob. I recently had to take my iMac in for a new motherboard. Now, with the new motherboard installed, I can't open Pages, even though I could before I had the repair made. (It was paid for when I ordered the iMac several years ago.)
I have no idea where/what my serial number/registration might be. I had received it back in 2006.
What do I do now to access the software I paid for previously?
As always, thanks in advance for any help on this.

Uh, yea. I realize I'm working w/ '06 software, yet the issue is the same regardless of when it was purchased or what forum I'm asking about it in: Purchased software worked. New motherboard installed. Now software doesn't work. What to do?
Sorry to upset your ordered view of the world.

Can't Open Page

it was fine this afternoon as i was still listening to the radio from AOL radio. tonight, when i tried to go online, it says can't open page, safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding!
i tried re-start, re-set, restore, but still the same, all others are still fine but just internet wouldn't work, can anyone please help? thank you

kjchen69,
Have you tried clearing the Safari cache: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1677 ?
The issue could also just be with the website itself. Have you tried browsing other webpages, like cnn.com for example?
Since AOL Radio is working, it doesn't seem to be an issue with your network connection. However, if AOL Radio or other network services have seemed to stop working, this assistant includes some good steps to try: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/troubleshooting/calls/ . In addition to these steps, resetting network or all settings is also a good steps to try. To do so, just navigate to Settings > General > Reset.
I can see you've tried a restore already; did you trying setting it up as a new phone? If other network apps are working, like AOL Radio, YouTube, or Mail, then setting up as new would be the next best step.
Hope this helps,
Raleigh

My iPad said safari can not open page server stopped responding

MMy iPad air states safari can not open page. Server stopped responding.

That could be exactly what happened. The server could be having a problem or the path to the server is down.

Safari can not open page-but I can open manually

my default page is my yahoo page that used to open when I opened a new web page
It was working fine yesterday. I started safari and I get the can't open page message.
I can open it manually but not when I open a new window.
It was working fine and then all of a sudden it did this.
I reset safari and shut down my mac, rebooted, etc. Nothing
Very very annoying.
Thanks

Hi everyone, I also had the same problem with connecting to the internet at home, with a brand new iPad, but managed to sort it out today with the help of the Genius Bar staff. I figured it was a router/software issue because wifi/internet was working at my university and at the Apple store. As posted in other threads on this forum, your iPad was probably not assigned an IP address.
I am using an Airport Express 802.11n, and this is connected via ethernet to my modem from my internet provider in Switzerland. It seems the problem is with "Bridge Mode", and my modem won't give out an IP address to my iPad. To fix this, I used the "Share a Public IP address" mode instead of Bridge mode. In Airport Utility, I went to Manual Setup - Internet - Internet Connection tab - Connection Sharing - Share a public IP address.
Then in the DHCP tab, DHCP reservation, I added my iPad to this list. it will ask you for your iPad's MAC number, which you can find in your iPad Settings - General - About - Wifi Address. I did not bother adding my Macbook or iPhone and wifi is still working for them so I think this IP address reservation step might be optional.
For those not using Macs or Airport Utility, unfortunately I am not familiar with setting up routers in the browser, so I can't help you there, but hopefully you get the idea.
Internet now works, but I haven't tried it long enough to know whether I have issues with dropping wifi, but at least the IP address is obtained and I can surf.
Hope this helps others!!!!!!
