How do I get document from icloud in the Pages app to sync to my ipad?

Ok, so I get the part about not having to sign in to icloud on an ios device, but that still doesn't explain why documents that I have stored in the icloud, itunes, and on my iphone are not automatically syncing to my ipad. When I try to open the Pages app on my ipad, nothing is there-shouldn't  these be automatically syncing via the cloud? How do I get these documents to my ipad?
Thanks!

Ok, while I was waiting for an answer, I figured it out (at least one way to do it) myself. Here's what I did. I opened the documents in pages on my iphone (were already there from syncing with itunes on my PC). then hit the tools icon and selected share and print. Then I selected iwork.com. I did not have an iWork.com account, so set that account up via the prompts. I then got sent an email to verify my iWork acct-and it was set up. Then I sent the document to myself via iWork. I then logged on to iWork on my ipad, and the documents were there. I then selected download, after the document downloaded to my ipad, a  tiny icon appeared in the top right hand side of my computer that  said "open in pages", I selected that, then the document appeared in pages on my ipad- Finally!!!!!  So, from what I can tell, for whatever reason the Pages app does not automatically sync in the icloud like it says it should- but you can access the documents if you use iwork to send the back and forth to yourself. Don't know if there is an easier way I don't know about, I'm not that ipad savvy since I just got one 3 days ago-any other ideas on how to do this quicker would also be welcome. What  a pain!

  • How do I save documents from iCloud into pages on my ipad?

    HOw do I save documents from iCloud into pages using an ipad?

    Where are you expecting to see "iCloud document?" Pages stores copies of your documents in iCloud but the documents appear in the Pages app. When you edit the document changes are automatically saved to iCloud. You do not go to iCloud to look for documents to open or copy.

    How do I get documents from Mac to iPad?

    If you just have a few that you want to view, you can e-mail them to yourself and use the viewer in the mail app to view them.
    If you have several or want to save them on the iPad or edit them then you'll need an app. Apple has iPad versions of Pages, numbers and keynote that should sync between your mac and iPad.

  • How can I get a new copy of the Voicemail app for my LG Spectrum?

    How can I get a new copy of the Voicemail app for my LG Spectrum?  It no longer works....the screen say Loading please wait....the
    !Visual Voice Mail - A Visual Voice Mail error has occurred.  Please try again. OK   I've tryed several times with the same message.  I've
    deleted the app from my screen and replaced it from the Apps Library....still the same message.
    I cannot find an answer on MyVerizon.  Any ideas?
    Thank you,

    OK, at least 3 is working.
    I don't know how you have a Tape Recorder icon on your Home Screen. I cannot add one myself. But, I am running Holo Launcher in replacement of the default LG "Optimus" User Interface. It's much better in my opinion.
    Try long pressing the icon and select Edit and maybe you can change some attribute of the icon.
    Another thing you could do, is long-press an empty area of your desktop, to add an icon. Select Shortcut, then Select Contact, and scroll through your contact list and choose the contact that you added for *86.
    You realize if you have voice mail you haven't heard, there is a tape recorder icon in the notification bar, which you touch and pull down, then press it to dial voicemail.
    If that functionality doesn't work, you MIGHT want to consider doing a factory data reset on your device, but that is going to nuke all your personalizations and cause you work to set up again.

  • I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    I accidentally deleted an Application on my iphone 5 and with it lost important files. How do i get back these files. The last iphone backup sync was after this so I cant even access an older back up as I cannot find them. How do I get back my Lost files.

    On your iMac launch iTunes and at the top next to the Apple symbol click iTunes > Preferences > Devices and tell me what you see. You last sync should be there showing only a device name. If you have an older backup it will be there as well the difference is it will be the device name with a date and time stamp. Sync and backups are two different things and there is a chance iTunes made a backup the first time you hooked up your iPhone 5.

    With the new io5 on safari how do you get back to top of the page quickly?

    Same way as before - click on the top. But the area to click seems to be slightly lower ... aim for the touch of the grey and black instead of the black.

    How do I get a previous version of the Kindle app?

    If you don't already have a previous copy backed up somewhere on your computer, you can't. The iTunes Store will have only the most recent version of any app.

  • How do I get contacts from iCloud back on my mac?

    How I got to this place is too long a story, but I ended up with a system iCloud dialogue box on my macbook pro, and the gist of the questions were Do you want to make it so if I quit iCloud my contacts (Notes, Reminders, etc) will no longer remain on your mac? I didn't want to do this, but it seemed it wasn't letting me proceed without hitting the highlighted agree button, so I did.
    I definitely want my contacts back on my Mac. How can I go about getting them from iCloud back onto my mac? I don't intend to quit iCloud, but I have years worth of contacts that I don't want to ever lose.
    Notes would be the next most important one to get back onto my mac. Reminders after that. Thanks much in advance for your help.
    Michael

    Hi Michael Gorsline1,
    I understand that you turned off iCloud on your Mac and subsequently lost all of your contacts, notes, and reminders. If your information, remains on iCloud.com, you can merge that information back onto your Mac by signing back into iCloud and selecting the services you would like to sync.

    that is how it is designed..
    iwork on iOS uses different file extensions and formats (*.tef )  then iwork for Mac (*.number,*.key*.page) . It needs to be converted all the times so that the different apps can deal with the content of the documents.

  • How do I get documents from pc to ipad?

    I have installed Pages on my iPad but don't know how to get documents from my PC to the Cloud.

    Go into iTunes, while iPad is connected, select it under devices. On the apps tab, scroll down and you will see the documents box. You can then select Pages and browse/select your document and then sync to the iPad.

  • How can I access documents from iCloud on my iPad.

    how can I download docs from icloud drive on my iPad and edit them on ipad.

    Hello Kalsulkar,
    To use iCloud Drive and to work with documents, you will need the corresponding Pages, Keynote and Numbers iOS apps or third party iOS apps that support iCloud Drive to interact with those documents. To access the content, you would need to open one of those apps to see all the documents that are available to you for that specific app. Take a look at the article below for more information.
