How do I deal with older Pages documents?

hi
I have a first generation iPad with iOS5, which btw still has impressive battery life, and was trying to open a document in Pages that I edited on a newer iPad with iOS7 and I have this document on the Cloud that way I can work on it with multiple devices including my Mac.
Unfortunately, since I've made changes in Pages on iOS7 now I can't open that document on my iOS5 iPad.
Is there a way to save the document in a backwards-compatible format?
thanks
nick

Try sending it to your older iPad in Word format

  • HT3384 I am using Pages v 5.2. How do I convert my older Pages documents to 5.2? When I try to open them I get a notice that I have to use a newer version, which I already have. So I have to go to the "Open with" menu and click on Pages 5.2. Happens every

    Every time I want to open a document created in an older version of Pages, I have to right click and select "Open with Pages (default) (5.2). Then it will open but when I close it it is still the old version. I want to be able to simply double click the document I want and have it open. How can I make those older documents into v. 5.2? Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    You are opening the old Pages version by mistake. This version is kept after installing the most recent Pages version in case you want to use it again, and I recommend you not to delete it.
    I recommend you to put the new Pages version in a place where you can open it easily, for example, in the Dock. The only thing you have to do is to go to Applications folder (open a Finder window and choose Applications in the sidebar), and drag Pages to the Dock. The new Pages version has got this icon:
    After putting Pages in the Dock, open it and access to all your documents. They will be converted to Pages 5.2 format if they were not opened with Pages 5.2 before.

  • How do I deal with constant "error loading content" messages?

    I'm constantly seeing error messages on my Apple TV (2nd gen) on content I easily watch on my other iDevices. What gives? This thing is rapidly becoming a vy expensive paper weight. Possibly the worst Apple product I've yet purchased. Am I alone in this?  What can I do?

    You cannot connect to TC using USB.
    Plug the TC into the computer using ethernet.
    Press and hold the reset button on the TC for about 10sec.. until front led rapidly flashes.. release it.
    Open the airport utility and make sure you can locate the TC. Check the disk page that the disk started up without errors.

  • Interactivity in Book with single page documents

    I'm currently working with a book, with single page documents.
    I'm trying to use the interactivity features for buttons in CS5.5
    I was able to get pages 2-5 to link to the first page, which we have set up as the table of contents.
    However, I'm having issues trying to link button from the 'Table of Contents' to the single pages of the book.
    For example, I have a button that, once click will take you to page 2, and another button that will take you to page 3 once clicked.
    Once I export to an Interactive PDF, the buttons on the 'Table of Contents' do not work.
    However the buttons on pgs. 2-5, that go to the 'First Page' work.
    Any suggestions/tips on how to get buttons to work on the first page, that will navigate you to the specified page?
    Thanks!

    Book settings always trump File settings, so make certain that in your book file Numbering and Pagination settings do not allow any "Read from File" settings.
    What's the Numbering setting for Page in the book files for the chapters? Typically, you should have this set to "Continue Numbering from Previous Page in Book" for all but the first chapter, if you want continuous numbering.
    Also make certain that if you want continuous pagination, that you don't have any chapters forced to start on a Right-hand page with the previous chapter also ending on a Right page. This will force FM to add an extra (Left) page and also bump up the page numbering.

  • How can I make two half page documents?

    I have a full page flyer.  I want to make it half page with two flyers.  I tried making two columns and cutting the page in half, but the borders are wrong.  How can I make two half page documents?

    You can do it with columns, just make the gutter twice the width of the outside margins.
    However being a Flyer why not just create one on the left using Textbooks and Shapes then group that and option shift drag it sideways to the right to make a copy on the right?

  • Upgrading older Page documents

    Please confirm for me my understanding of this problem.   When I try to open older Pages documents in Yosemite, the message is "to open the document, save it with Pages '09 first".  For the record, after upgrading to Yosemite, there is no iWork '09 folder in my Applications folder.
    I doubt that I have used many (or any) of the features that didn't migrate from Pages '09.  My desire is merely to upgrade the documents to the current version.
    As I understand it, the solution is:
    1. Reinstall iWork '09 from the DVD (which I have).
    2. Download and apply iWork Update 9.3
    3. Open older files and save them as Pages '09 documents; then open them again with current version of Pages.
    Can someone please confirm that steps 1. and 2. are correct, and that they do not present any problems on a MacBook Pro (late 2013) running Yosemite.
    Thanks much.

    It sounds to me as though you have some legacy Pages ’08 documents that Pages v5 dropped support. If you still have access to Pages ’08, export the problematic '08 documents to MS Word .doc, and then open these with Pages v5.5. That would avoid steps 1 - 3 altogether.
    Otherwise, steps 1 - 3 are correct. Here again, you could also export them as MS Word documents too — as backups.
    Pages v5.5 lacks about 100+ features/functionality that was available in Pages ’09 v4.3. Consequently, it will filter out document content that it does not support, such as some templates, linked Text boxes, the use of Mail Merge, bookmarks… ad nauseum. Then it autosaves it in v5.5 .pages format to the same ’09 filename sans your original content.

  • How can I work with facing pages in pages ver 5

    I have become very dependant on the facing pages display in older versions of Pages.  For design and page layout for booklets it is most essential.
    I have downloaded (upgraded) to version 5 of Pages and cannot figure out how to get the facing pages display back.  My booklets all show now as a long list of single page thumbnails.
    My question is how to display facing pages.  Without this feature version 5 is a downgrade not an upgrade.

    I would like to add my voice and concerns to Frank's post and second abra100pro's requests. Why eliminate such crucial features?
    Please Apple: bring back:
    Facing pages

  • How can I deal with long sql by the oo4o?

    I am using VB and oo4o to develop a sql executor which is a extention of an old system.
    For some reason, I have to use oo4o v8.1.7 to deal with Oracle Database 8i to 11g.
    But when I send a very long sql(11KB) to it I got a error in the VB enviroment.
    The Err.Description is "automention error. Started object is disconnected by the client.".
    The Err.Number is "-2147417848 ".
    The sql that I send it to the program is a simple select sql that like select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 2, 3) .... from A_TBL where A=aa;
    This sql is normally executed by the sqlplus but I got an error by the oo4o.
    When I insert a '' between the 30Xth items, it got exectuted normally.
    ex. select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 1, 2) ..... substrb(303th, 3, 4), '', substrb(304th, 1, 2) ... from A_TBL where A = aa;
    How can I deal with this problem? Thanks.

    So how can use this function correctly?By learning what exceptions are, how they're used, and what you can do to deal with them. There's a tutorial here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/exceptions/index.htmlAnd here's a quick overview:
    The base class for all exceptions is Throwable. Java provides Exception and Error that extend Throwable. RuntimeException (and many others) extend Exception.
    RuntimeException and its descendants, and Error and its descendants, are called unchecked exceptions. Everything else is a checked exception.
    If your method, or any method it calls, can throw a checked exception, then your method must either catch that exception, or declare that your method throws that exception. This way, when I call your method, I know at compile time what can possibly go wrong and I can decide whether to handle it or just bubble it up to my caller. Catching a given exception also catches all that exception's descendants. Declaring that you throw a given exception means that you might throw that exception or any of its descendants.
    Unchecked exceptions (RuntimeException, Error, and their descendants) are not subject to those restrictions. Any method can throw any unchecked exception at any time without declaring it. This is because unchecked exceptions are either the sign of a coding error (RuntimeException), which is totally preventable and should be fixed rather than handled by the code that encounters it, or a problem in the VM, which in general can not be predicted or handled.
