How can I send a pages doc. to someone with a PC(word) so that they can open it?

How can I either change my Pages document into a Word document, Or send it to someone with a PC/Word so that they can open and read it? (My email is gmail).

Lois,
If you have used any fancy Pages features, they will be lost in translation to Word. In that case, Export or Print to PDF and send the PDF.

I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.

Hi,
How do you color code the calendar items? From conditional formatting or from categories?
Please make sure the user has been given reviewer or higher calendar permission to view items colors in Outlook. About how to share calendar in Outlook, please refer to:

I have an Australian account, how do I send a gift card to someone with an English account, not a monthly allowance? Thanks

I wish to send a gift card to a person living in the UK from my Australian account, how do I do this. I don't want to set up a monthly allowance, its is a one off birthday gift. Has anyone else done this?

How about a Western Union money transfer?

How do I save a page doc in word (so I can attach it to an email and send it)

I'm a poet who has to submit my poems via submission managers at literary journals. Most journals need these attached in a Word doc or Rtf file...but I can't figure out how to covert an existing page doc poem to a word doc so I can do this.
Also, is it possible in pages to "save" a pages file as rtf? how?
Pat

thank you Tom...
I did try this... am still a little confused. "share" doesn't work ...I get a message that IWORK is discontinued.
Also, after I go to export and click on "Word" and click on export again....where does the resulting file go to get stored? Is it on my computer then (on the desktop if I say that's where it goes?)...so that when attaching it to the submissions manager I would hit "browse" and find it on the computer/desktop and then hit attach? I'm not even sure I'm explaining this right.
Pat

(1) The OP is technically correct - there is no direct equivalent of "save as". There is "save a version" and there is "duplicate".
(2) So far it seems that to get the same effect as "save as" you need to create a "duplicate", then save the duplicate. The duplicate will automatically be given a name like "docname.copy.pages", which can be changed to that desired.
(1) nobody wrote about the technical aspect of the OP's question !
But, you wrote something wrong.
There is a "Duplicate" item, a "Save a Version" item and there is a "Save…" item.
(2) The reproduced help page clearly state that the first step is to trigger 'Duplicate' For the second step, it's not clear. It seems that the ones writing the Help were not informed of the definite choices made by the developers. They wrote "Save As" but never was such an item. It was "Save As…" in which the ellipsis is an important component. At last, the developers defined two items : "Save…" and "Save a Version" ( at this time I'm running 10.6.8 so I can't check if this item has or hasn't an ellipsis).

How did you buy Pages?
Which MacOs system do you have on your computer?
What is the exact message you get?
Which version of Pages do you have?
Please answer all questions and if you don't know how ask again.

Hi Shelly,
Command-P (Print)
In the Print dialogue, click the PDF button at lower left, choose Mail PDF
The result should be a new email document with the pdf file attached.
Address and send.
The procedure applies to any document which may be printed, not just Pages documents.

How do I send my pages attachment so that it will open for those with Microsoft word?

How do I send my pages attachment so that it will open for those with Microsoft Word?

Hi Victoria,
Pages does not run on Windows.
Word cannot open a Pages file.
If you want someone without pages to be able to open your attachment, you will have to send it in a format openable on the recipient's computer.
If the recipient needs only to read the document, the most universal format is pdf. To send a pdf copy of your file, press command-P to open the Print dialogue, then click the PDF button and choose email PDF. This will open a new message in your default email client and attach the pdf file to that message.
If the recipient needs to be able to edit/change your document, and has MS Word, then either Save a copy as a Word file or go File > Export and choose Word as the file format for the export.
Be aware that MS Word does not support all features of Pages (and vice versa), and that formatting of the document may be affected by font substitution if you use fonts that are not available on the recipient's machine.
Regards,
Barry

How do I send SMS only at ALL TIMES with an iPhone to ALL contacts? My family shares iPads under my ID and now my teenager gets all my business texts!

How do I send SMS only at ALL TIMES with an iPhone to ALL contacts? iOS 8 now forces all Apple users to use iMessage all the time with all other iOS users. The option to send as SMS only is subordinate to iMessage in iOS 8 settings and CANNOT be turned off to send only SMS texts to another iOS device! This is a serious privacy issue for all households using iOS and doing family sharing, including over a number of iOS devices, under one member's Apple ID. Why should business conversations or financial conversations between parents be readable on an iPad in the hands of a teenager or a seven year old? The answer is not as simple as "Just don't enable iMessage on your other devices," because amy family that shares the Apple ID password is vulnerable to teenagers particularly hacking into iMessage to monitor, for example, what their parents are saying. If I were Samsung or Google I would hammer this issue immediately and continually until it is fixed by Apple (and I'm not sure why they haven't yet). iMessage is a convenience but it has this serious limitation given the architecture of the Apple universe. Apple simply cannot force all its users to conduct text messaging in arbitrarily limited way, any more than it was able to force all its users to switch from Google Maps. When will Apple fix this?

Fox, that does not work, because then you are blocked from sending any form of message to another Apple user. iMessage MUST be activated to text any other iOS device. And then Apple defaults by ALWAYS using iMessage between iOS devices.There is simply no way, within iOS 8, to send SMS only to another Apple user. Apple has made that impossible.
The SMS-only choice used to be on the same menu level as iMessage, but now it is locked WITHIN iMessage, and is not available as a choice unless iMessage is activated. Then it is limited solely to being used if iMessage is not available.
I'm sure their argument is that they are saving their customers money because iMessage is free, but they are imposing an opportunity cost on 100 percent of their user base in the guise of saving that money. What they are really doing is entrapping faithful users such as myself further within the Apple ecosystem. If I hadn't already spent thousands of dollars on my iTunes library I might consider a Galaxy ... Samsung does not deserve to regain any momentum if they can't figure out how to exploit this.
Turning off iMessage does not prevent you from sending messages to other Apple users. You can send an SMS to any iPhone without your own iMessage turned on, even if it is turned on on their iPhone.
The SMS-only option is: Turn off iMessage. Literally. That's it.

How do I send just a song to someone and not the entire album?

How do I send just a song to someone and not the entire album??

If you are using an iOS device then no, I don't think that you can gift a song, it will need to be the whole album. If you are using your computer's iTunes, and it's not an album-only track, then you should be able to gift individual songs via the downward pointing arrow next to the song's price.

I send a file from Imac snow leopard OS X 10.6 to the ipadusing bluetooth, but the failure message says the ipad does not have the necessary services. What are these? Do I neeed to have iphoto and ms word to send pix and .doc files?

File Sharing over Bluetooth is not a feature of iOS devices. iOS does not include the required Bluetooth profiles to allow this. You cannot add this feature, so you may as well stop trying.

If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
You may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode
