Help please, pages is now asking for registration which i bought from iTunes Jan '11

I have been using pages since Jan 2011 which I bought from iTunes as a paid download, not a trial version.
I dont have a serial number, (Ive checked on the invoice) to put in and I dont want to pay again. Just weird that all of a sudden it should bring this message up.

MIss,
I think you probably purchased from the Mac App Store application in Lion, not the iTunes store which never sold the OS X verion of iWork apps. And, probably not from the Apple Online Store, which only sold the registration number which was to be applied to the Trial Download, otherwise you would have the number.
My guess is that you have somehow come across an old Trial version of iWork and it is, of course, past it's valid trial dates. In the Mac App Store you can look at you Purchases tab and see if Pages is listed. If so, you're in good standing as far as ownership goes and you just need to get rid of the trial. Yvan Koenig has written a Script to clear the Trial of iWork from your computer. You can download it here.
After running the script, reinstall Pages from the Mac App Store.

  • Got a new iPad and set up to sync with iCloud and now asking for password which I never set. How do I get on device if I don't know what it thinks password is?

    Help.  I just got a new iPad 2 and set up sync with iCloud and no password.  Now asking for a password and I never set one up.  What password does it want: iTunes, iPhone (no real password there either).  Tried as many passwords as I could think with the iPad locking me out since I don't have the password!  Would like to use the iPad but can't get on to try it.
    Thanks.
    Desparate

    So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
    Yes...  sorry.
    In the future, if need be, you can re download your purchases for free  >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Good rule of thumb is to back up your purchases regardless  >  Mac App Store: Backing up your app purchases

  • HT201363 my ipad went on update and now asking for passcode which i don't know

    my ipad went on update and now asking for passcode whcih i don't know what should i do now to start operating

    Hey sunny1008,
    Thanks for the question. The following article provides some solutions if you are having issues with passcode lock:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
    If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
    "iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
    "You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    5. iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I was transferring music from my (windows) laptop to my iPod 4. Some transferred, then all of the music(except for what I had bought from iTunes)was gone. Then, it started saying "updating files at the top of the computer, but nothing happened. HELP!

    Ok, so I transferred some songs using my USB cable. Then, I checked my iPod, and it had spaces where there would be songs (ones that I had transferred from my laptop when I first got my iPod, so not bought from iTunes) but they were blank, so I completely turned off my iPod and turned it back on, that's when all of those songs disappeared, but they were still on my computer. Only the ones I had purchased iTunes on my iPod remained. I got some other songs to transfer after that, then it started saying "preparing to update files on iPod" "finishing updates" then it doesn't say anything and the songs still aren't on my iPod. Please explain and tell me if there is a way to fix it!

  • Asking for Apple ID password bought from someone else...

    I just bought an Iphone off a mate of mine but they already have an icloud account on there. Each time i go to install an app and music from app store it asks for password of the previous user, is there any way of disabling this so that I can use my account for things??

    Settings > iTunes & App Stores
    Sign out of the former users's account and sign into your own. Note that if there are any apps or other content left that were purchased by the former owner, it will still prompt you for that user's account for updates. I'd suggest restoring the iPhone to factory settings:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    so that you can start completely fresh with your own account, apps, etc.

  • HT2534 What to do? Help please. Free app asking for billing details. And which one to use apple id or iCloud id?

    When i want to install a free app using my apple id [email protected] - it asks me to enter billing details...why is that? :s
    What to do?
    And when i try to install it using my icloud id [email protected] , it does give me the option of 'none' in payment method but when i select it, it asks me to first fill in the details only then it would move to the next step.
    And i wanted to ask....is it better to use my id the one with [email protected] or [email protected] ?
    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    For a standard account, a valid payment method is required even for free apps.
    You can create a new account w/o a CC that is only good for apps by following these instructions
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

  • HT1353 Can you download radio to the old 2nd generation ipod nano? There is no category for downloads, only stuff bought from iTunes.

    My 3rd generation ipod nano has blanked out on me. I have a 2nd generation ipod, was able to download my music from my iTunes library on it, but it would not download radio programmes from my download library. There is no category on the ipod for downloads, is this because it doesnt accept them?

    It depends on what you mean by radio programs exactly.  Where were they originally downloaded from? Do they appear in the music category of your iTunes library?

    Please have a device you've lost a year ago and is now asking for Aastgl and restore the iPhone5 firs

    What is 'Aastgl' ?
    If you mean activation lock : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
    then you will need to type in the account id and password that it's locked to, or remove it from your account (e.g. via http://icloud.com), or ask the person whose account it is to remove it from their account.
    If you mean your answers to your security questions, then the HT5312 page that you posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

  • HELP! my mac has logged me out and now asking for a name and password?

    I was logged on shopping on top-shop online and suddenly the mac shut down.
    It seems it has reset its self! My icon has disappeared and its now asking  for a name and password.
    i have tried my log in but it is not working.
    Is there another way to reset the password?
    can i reset it to log back in what can i do?
    I have rebooted the computer several times but i dont know what to do!

    First, make sure caps lock is not on.
    Another reason why your password might not be recognized is that the keyboard layout (input source) has been switched without your realizing it. At the login screen, you can cycle through the available layouts by pressing the key combination   command-space or command-option-space. See this support article.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the window that opens, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

  • I subscribed to Photoshop CC through the creative cloud but it keeps asking for registration

    I subscribed to Photoshop cc through the creative cloud which has been registered. Whenever I open Photoshop it asks for registration?

    Registering does no good and I had similar problems with the full Adobe package for a year and now it's still not working right with this photographers package. I've been watching for a fix for a long while now and nothing here ever helps. They assume you are not registered usually, but of course that's not the case. After all this time this problem remains for many people. After a while you just live with it and pray that you don't have an internet outage and miss a deadline.

    Hi Jon,
    Dreamweaver the following errors show up in the JavaScript.Log. I deleted the .dat file but no difference. I am not so confident in how to delete the preference file. I have been following the instructions (see link)

    Windows:
    ~Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 (folder)

    When Dreamweaver launches, it creates new preferences files and folder.
    How do I get rid of these errors?

    Try renaming the configuration folder that holds the .dat file first, before attempting to restore preferences.
    Many times that will take care of it without having to do all the work required after a pref-reset.

  • HELP! Ipad 2 suddenly asking for passcode

    Here's the situation, my dad's ipad 2 suddenly asking for passcode, which he never use one. Ever. He doesn't even know how to put one. And I have seen a lot of "Restore" ideas to solve it through itunes. But the problem is, I never connected his ipad on my laptop which means my itunes doesn't know the device and vice versa. I think it will need to click trust first in the device, right? But how can i click it when I cannot open the ipad because of that passcode. This is too confusing. Please help me

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
