How can I reset Pages after a failed update attempt?

I tried to download an update to Pages while away from home and my WiFi network. The updater instructed me to either download the update from a WiFi connection or to use my MacBook to download the update and sync my iPad afterward. Home is 700 miles away, and I don't have access to either my MacBook or to my home network. The problem is that the Pages icon is sitting on the desktop waiting for the update to start. I can't launch Pages until I either go home or find a WiFi connection that will permit downloading the update. Is there a way to reset Pages right now so I can use the application without updating it? I've tried powering down the iPad and restarting it, but that has not helped.

Jack,
I agree with you totally! Obviously, there's something terribly wrong with Apple's latest iTunes version 10.5 and it seems that everyone (including me) is experiencing major problems.
I don't even have any minor problems with it and neither do millions of others, so "everyone" does not have major problems.
But...Apple's "Support" people seem to be hiding behind a "firewall" from having to actually respond to the myriad of problems this new version has created and leaving it up to the "Support Community" (i.e.- that's right...you & me) to resolve these issues.
So what did Apple Support say when you contacted them?

After downloading the update for my iPad 3rd gen my iPad is extremely slow. How can this be fixed???

You may have to restore your iPad using Recovery mode, but try a reset first. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons when you see the logo. This takes about 10-15 seconds.
IF the update will not complete or you see the connect to iTunes message on the screen, you have to restore your iPad.

How can I reset icons after an update?

After update to 24.0 all Firefox icons were reset. Not just the Mozilla Firefox icons, but all shortcut icons, incl frequent sites, tasks, Pinned shortcuts. Shortcuts even inside the browser are set to rectangle with blue banner at the top with red and blue dots inside.

Hi Thomas, that icon doesn't sound familiar, but if it's the default icon, it could indicate some corruption in the Windows icon cache. These articles have steps to repair that, but I've never tried it myself:
* [http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/icon-cache-gets-corrupted-after-installing-new/d92093bf-b424-4f67-8bb4-53112355dcfb Icon cache gets corrupted after installing new programs - Microsoft Community]
* [http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/49819-icon-cache-rebuild.html Icon Cache - Rebuild - Windows 7 Help Forums]
Before doing that, however, I am concerned about the problems ''inside'' Firefox. Could you post a screenshot showing where those are? This article has tips: [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]

CNA 5.8.7 can't reset authentication after "authentication failed"

I have had a successful setp up of a community in CNA 5.8.7. I went to include another new device (add to community) that had a different authentication than all the other community switches. In adding the device I added by attempting with wrong credentials and got the "authentication failed" for the right reason. When I discovered the correct credentials I again attempted to re-add the device and I keep getting "authentication failed" without the opportunity to reauthentciate with my newly discovered credentials. An authentication loop is occuring without me being able to correct it.

Hi Anthony,
I have tried to reproduce the issue like what you have explained in issue description. CNA working fine to me.
Could you please verify device credentials once again and check wheather http/https are enabled on the device or not?
Please let me know your comments on this.
Thank you

How can I use "undone" after restarting my PC?

I did something stupid in iTunes (no songs are marked anymore). How can I reset it after restarting the Pc?
Thanx

Hi there
Captivate simply records what appears on your computer screen. So the trick is getting the iPad to display on your PC screen. There is an applicaton called Reflector that should allow this.

My Sony Xperia Z won't start /turn on after failed update attempt

Try this connect your phone to the wall charger > press andhold power & volume up > let it charge for 1 or 2 hours > after 2 hours > repair your phone with SUS Update Service (SUS) http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/ http://www-support-downloads.sonymobile.com/Software%20Downloads/Update_Service_Setup-2.11.12.5.exe PC Companion (PCC) Bridge (for Mac) Alternatives on How to backup Xperias http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/36355

A similar problem to the other posters, my Sony Xperia Z won't start after a failed update attempt. Following the support suggestions on the Sony website (http://www.sonymobile.com/sg/support/faq/w8-walkman-phone/update-software/software-update-failed-ps101/) failed. Solutions posted on this forum thread (http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z-ZL-ZR/My-Sony-Xperia-Z-won-t-start-turn-on-after-failed-update-attempt/m-p/401787#M20133) have also failed. When I plug the phone into the wall charger, the LED comes on red, the SONY logo appears on my screen, followed by a message indicating that "The Software update failed. Make sure that your phone is connected to the computer and try again.", and then the phone turns itself off. The cycle repeats itself with no indication that my phone's actually being charged. Since it is unable to charge, plugging the phone into my computer does not trigger the update process to start, so I can't "try again", as the message so helpfully suggests. The computer also does not recognise my phone as being connected despite following the PC Companion's instructions to 1) unplug the device, 2) remove and replace the battery (which I can't do, because the battery is built in), and 3) turn it back on (which, again, I can't do, because the phone won't charge in the first place), before 4) plugging it back into the computer. Please help... Thank you.

What do you mean by unbinded controls. Is it the components which are not bound to model layer?
If yes, the resetActionListener will work for them as well.

I am trying to restore my Mac OS after a hard drive failure and my password is no longer recognized, however I can log in by double clicking on the Lion Icon? How can I reset my password

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 combinationcommand-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*, boot into 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 boot 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.

After a year of no use and a fully discharged battery, my MacBook Pro refuses to accept the administrator name and the password. How can I reset these?

After a year of no use and a resulting fully discharged battery, the MacBook Pro refuses to recognize the administrator name and password (both). It has system OS X 10.6 which can not be upgraded without the information. How can I reset or reistall the administrator name and password?

Thanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
Thanks for your comments.

Obviously since you have iOS 7 you're a developer. As a developer, you signed a NDA with Apple not to discuss the iOS on a public forum. Please log in to the Developer Forum using your credentials and ask for help there, lest you risk having your credentials terminated.
Thanks, and best of luck to you.

Make sure iTunes on the computer is logged into the account on the phone.
Plug the iPhone in.
In the popup window warning about wiping your phone, hit cancel.
In the left pane of iTunes, the phone icon should be there.
Right click on it, select transfer purchases.
Note: this will only transfer music bought from iTunes. Not mp3's from amazon or ripped from CD's.
