How come with v4 I can't open a page that was saved to hard drive?

I have pages saved on my hard drive that I have opened many times with previous version of FF. Now, when I try to open them I get an error message about it not being found. I have even tried re-saving them from V4, but they still will not open in FF V4. Note, they open just fine in IE, sorry.

It's a well known behavior which Jerrold and me described here some weeks ago.
I reported the bug to Apple but it seems that the engineers working upon the AppStore don't know the specs of the different kinds of iWork applications.
They are three kinds :
(1) applications resulting of the trial version + a bought registration code
(2) applications resulting of the instal thru a bought DVD
(3) applications bought thru the AppStore.
The appStore application is able to recognize the case 3.
Given what you wrote, it seems that it recognize case 2.
Given what Jerrold and me reported here, it doesn't recognize case 1.
In the first version, the app was fool enough to treat iWork '08 as bought 09 ones for a task
but make the difference for an other task.
This foolish thing (I'm listening Lester Young) was killed by the late update.
Of course, Jerrold's and my own versions are legal and up to date.

    Thanks!

    You may have a hard drive problem. When I installed Lion, the installer told me that it couldn't complete because the hard drive was failing (or broken, the exact words escape me). Since the HD had been functioning just fine, I took it to the Genius Bar, and found out that yes, the hard drive was slowly dying (bad sectors). I couldn't reboot into Snow Leopard, the installer wouldn't let me and then the drive just wouldn't work at all.
    I had to replace my drive and restore from Time Machine. Thankfully, I had Time Machine, and had just done a backup 5 minutes before the crash.
    Best of luck.

  • Can I open an imovie project from an external hard drive on a different computer than my own? If so how?

    Can I open an imovie project from an external hard drive on a different computer other than my own? If so how?

    If you used the Finder to move the files, iMovie will have lost track of them. iMovie holds the locations of the Event files, and Project files contain references to those locations. If you move the files, iMovie has no way of knowing where they are.
    If you can, first move all the files back to their original locations. Plug in the external drive. Open iMovie and move the files in iMovie's interface (help explains how, but basically, just drag and drop in the event pane).
    Then you can connect the drive to the new computer, and iMovie will see them.

  • How can I open up more space on my external hard drive for Time Machine?

    I have a 500GB external hard drive that I use with Time Machine. I believe I have half designated for Time Machine and the other half to use as an external drive to put whatever I want on it. My issue is that now my Time Machine back up needs more than 250GB of space.
    How can I make more space available on Time Machine and less for the external half (maybe split it 400/100 for example) or just designate the whole 500GB for Time Machine?
    Am I going to have to reformat the hard drive? I'm trying to do this in a way that I'm not going to risk losing what might already be on Time Machine...
    I'm not sure how well I'm explaining this. Hopefully someone can help.
    Amanda

    I would also suggest you get a 2nd, much larger hard drive, partition it if desired, move your data to it, and start a 2nd Time Machine backup on it. You can set Time Machine to alternate between the 2 drives by adding the new drive to System Preferences/Time Machine. If you want to make a copy of your current backup on the new drive, you can do that using the Disk Utility Restore tab. If you chose to do that, make the copy first since using the Restore tab erases all data on the drive or the partition.

  • How  can I open a document that i saved without buying the latest pages?

    I saved two documents last week and now I can not open them without "buying the latest version of pages"  Is there anyway to save this information without being forced to buy new software.   I have been happy with my old pages and saved it with my old pages and not I can not open it with out buying the new version.  I feel that apple is holding my document hostage.  Any help would be appreciated.

    DM,
    You probably already have V5 without knowing it. Unless someone else edited your documents with V5, it was you, and you just need to make sure that you are using V5 for edits.
    Right-Click the docment in Finder and choose Open With: Pages V5.x
    I'd be surprised if you didn't find that option.

  • How can I open Elements 7 Downloader on an External Hard Drive?

    Hi there,
    Last night I moved perhaps a thousand photos from "My Pictures" on my computer's hard drive to an external hard drive--first time I have done this ever. I have a Toshiba Satellite that is rapidly running out of space. I have Vista Home Premium, and the new hard drive is a 320 GB FreeAgent Go (by Seagate).
    When I attach the handsome little red device to my computer via USB port the Adobe Photoshop Downloader appears with 24 folders (3 across, 8 down) but the interface (I think that's the right term) doesn't seem "alive", i.e., I click here-and-there and nothing happens at all.
    It seemed to easy last night that I thought something was amiss--now I see I probably botched the operation--alas, something that is the norm for me.
    Hope this makes sense, and thank you.

    Bill,
    1-- what model of Toshiba laptop do you have?
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A305-S6872 with a 15.4 "screen and its native or maximum resolution is 1280 x 800 pixels. I can barely see some of the Downloader dialogs on that screen, so I think it is important that we learn more about your laptop.
    2 -- you say that you moved photos from My Pictures to the external hard drive
    Had you imported these photos to the PSE 7 Organizer BEFORE you moved them to the external drive ?
    In other words, when you were using the PSE 7 Organizer BEFORE you moved those photo files to the external drive, did you see thumbnails for these photos in the Organizer?  If yes, don't use the Downloader to import them now. There needs to be a different discussion about what you should do.
    Paige,
    I think that you and I are actually having some similar thoughts about this problem. I returned to the original post here because I thought that using a method of comparing his laptop to mine of the same brand might be helpful.  Of course, it would not be necessary to be the same brand, so this is primarily a method of problem analysis.
    I keep wondering why the PSE 7 Downloader is appearing when connecting the Seagate external hard drive?  On my Toshiba the Seagate external GO drives are being treated as a disk drive and not as a flash drive or camera card reader (where I would expect that the Downloader might launch).
    IF these photos were previously imported to the PSE 7 Organizer, then continuing with the Downloader is NOT the correct action. I realize that you understand this. I mention it now so that we do not loose sight of that possibility while we are discussing screen resolution.
    Returning back to the topic of screens, I am thinking about the other threads which say that some of the Downloader screens do not fit within  the 768 height which is stated as the PSE minimum.  So far all the PSE 7 Downloader screens I have experienced fit within my 800 pixel height but some have been so close that I can observe the probability that they don't fit 768.

  • How can I restore my library that was erased off external drive....

    I just accidently erased 90% of my itunes library that was reading off an external drive. The last 10% was recently purchases music that I downloaded directly to my laptop hard drive and remains intact (makes sense?). Basically I wiped out the external drive that my 90% library read to.
    I was able uncover hidden files off my ipod and inturn copy my library back to the external drive but the big question is - is there a way to restore all this without having to start over Itunes? Can I reimport it off the external drive from the ipod copyover? One thing I can't do is copy it back onto the laptop hard drive because there's nowhere near enough space. Thanks for you help!

    OK first thing you might want to do is read this post of mine from the other day...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6296361&#6296361
    because, well I am too lazy to type much of it again.
    But the part that really is for you is about half way down, just above the link where it starts with "If it was me, " which is what you want to do. In your case, you would use the "Add to library..." command twice. Once to add all the files from the external, and then again to grab all the ones off the internal, if you want everything located in one location. You can then remove the ones from your internal AFTER you verify that they made it to the external ok.
    As noted in that post at the end, but worth repeating, doing it with that method keeps everything all together (database files, media files, etc) in a single folder for your library rather than your database files on the internal and your media on the external or spread across both drives. If you ever need to move the library or want to use your library on other computers, you can simply move the folder or the entire drive and use the above instructions to open your library.

  • Can't open video files when transferred to external hard drive, but can preview them?

    I'm trying to clean up the disk space on my Mac because I have too many HD files.  However, when I copied them onto my external hard drive, and tried to open them there, I can't.  However, I can "preview" the files.  Is it safe to erase my hard disk?  Or has something gone wrong?
    Thanks.

    iMovie will only recognize drives that are formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled), not FAT32. This is because of an architectural limitation of FAT32 which does not allow files sizes of 4GB or larger. Video can quickly reach this size.
    You can either get a new drive and format it, or you can reformat your current drive. If you reformat your current drive, it will erase all data that is currently on it. Shout out if you need detailed instructions for the reformatting.

  • You used to be able to scroll through the history of one tab by using an arrow on the left of the screen to see all the pages you visited on that tab and now it's missing. You can't select one page that was maybe 12 clicks back now.

    If I'm on one site and click through several links on the page, I want to be able to look at the history of my clicks and return to an earlier click - like the second or third one instead of hitting the arrow button 12 times. You used to be able to get a drop-down history of all the clicks on one tab - it's now gone and it's really annoying.

    There is a left arrow ("back button"). Click and hold down and after a second, you'll have a history list for the tab. You can then select the page you want from there.

  • How can I get albums back that are on my hard drive that seem to have

    uninstalled from iTunes. I have some songs that are on my iPod, but no longer in iTunes....why did this happen, and can I correct it without having to do each song or album individually?
    Thanks!

    " I have some songs that are on my iPod, but no longer in iTunes"
    If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
