How can I avoid using the new Pages

For now I have chosen to forgo using the latest versions of Pages & Numbers and prefer thier predecessors. However the newer versions are  opened by default when downloading/clicking on DOC & XLS as well as .PAGES & .NUMBERS files. I know how to use the "Open With" command but I'd rather  avoid those extra steps. Can I either re-name or hide/move the new versions of these programs so they won't launch inadvertantly. I suppose I could delete them altogether and reacquire them later on. (Eventually I'll come around to using them but not now.)
Best advice?
Thank you.

Bury the new apps 2 folders down.

  • How can I recover from the new Pages

    Does anyone know how I can recover a Pages file which has become locked into the new Pages program? I never edited it with the new Pages, but now I'm told I must have the new Pages to open it. I even tried opening it with the new Pages and converting it to PDF with the plan to copy and paste it into Pages '09, but i lost control of line spacing, etc. (It is a 4-column file of data on one page (in the '09 version, that is). Appreciate any help.

    Jay,
    Surely you did edit the file with Pages 5.2, or you wouldn't be having this problem. It's an easy mistake to make since both versions have exactly the same filename and extension. They are just stored in different folders. 5.2 is in Applications and 4.3 is in Applications/iWork '09.
    Use TimeMachine to locate a clean backup file.

  • How can I re-download the new pages.  App Center won't let me.  Says it is installed.

    I have messed up Pages 5 and now all I have on my Mac is the old pages 4.?  When I go to the App Center it tells me that the new Pages is installed.  But I have corrupted it somehow and need to download it again.  How do I do that when the App Store tells me it is already installed?

    Dah veed,
    I tried this but when I go to the purschases page, Pages in greyed out and still says "installed."  Any other suggestons?
    I can't find anywhere where another copy of Pages is installed.

  • When printing anything off the internet it shrinks the full page into one forth of the full page. How can i print using the enitre page?

    Every time I use firefox I can't print full pages off the internet. I will find the page I want, for example, map quest. I push the print button and my printer prints the entire page in one forth of the space. The entire page I printed can be found in the upper left hand corner of the full page, just shrunk down to a fourth of its size. How can i get a full page printed from the internet?

  • How can I avoid opening the several instances of the same form?

    Hi Friends,
    I have a MDI form with a menu. When open a form by clicking the menu twice, it is opening two instances of the same form. It is eating up all resources of my memory.
    How can I avoid opening the multiple instances of the same form? I want the activate the form which is already open instead of opening the new instance of the same.
    Anybody knows solution please help me.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    U must be using the built-in OPEN_FORM in your code. Instead of that, check it using the following code....
    IF ID_NULL(FIND_FORM('form_name')) THEN
    OPEN_FORM('form_name with the path');
    ELSE
    GO_FORM('form_name'); --shifts the control into the form which is already open.
    END IF;
    hope it helps...

    I am an Aperture user and I am tired of managing my old iphoto library seperately. In order to use the new combined aperture/iphoto abilities i need a newer version of iphoto. Apple says that the new iphoto is free, however my iphoto (version 8.1.2) did not update. How do i update iphoto so that i can use the library with Aperture?

    iPhoto, iMovie and Garageband are free. However, you must be running Mavericks in order to download and use them. Mavericks is free also.  Therefore your Mac must be capable of running Mavericks:
    The following is from: Apple - Upgrade your Mac to OS X Mavericks.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    iWork is not as it's an upgrade and not an update. Upgrades for iWork have always had to be purchased. However, the previous iWork apps will work fine with Mavericks.

  • I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for several years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both?

    I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for a couple years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both the iMac and MacBook Air? I don't mind losing earlier backups. I have excluded some items from backing up, but since the Airport Time Capsule is full, I can't even begin to back up the MacBook Air.

    On your Mac.......
    Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click on the Disks tab at the top of the window
    Click Erase Disk
    On the next window that appears, select the Quick Erase option, then click Erase
    The operation will only take a few minutes.
    Now you are ready to start new backups of both Macs.  Back up one Mac first, then back up the other.  Do not try to back up both Macs as the same time.

  • How can i move to a new page in smartform?

    hi friends
    i hav a smartform with two pages.
    the fist page contains the Main window and 3 Secondary windows.
    in the 1st page i'm displaying some line items and in the main window i gave the command to
    go to Page 2.
    the 2nd page contains only one Secondary Window.
    in that i want to display a table with many line items.
    if it contains only 20 line items its works fine; becoz of the window size.
    how can i move to a new page if it contains more line items?

    Hi,
    You need to create main Window on second page also.
    And in Form Attributes..there is an option for Next page.
    So there you mention the next page name.
    This will solve the problem.
    Thanks.
    Swati.
