How do I send documents so PC users can open them. (I have Pages)

I'm trying to send a document to a group of people who use microsoft.  They can't open my documents.  I also tried sending as a google doc and the same problem.

In addition to what Alastair said, Pages can also save file in Word format.

    Are you using Numbers? Are they, or are they using Microsoft Excel? (in which case you would have to export it as Excel). Are they perhaps using a different version of Numbers? (You can also export to Numbers '09 format).

  • How can i change my files from cwk to normal files that i can send to anyone and they can open them

    i have an imac with snow lepard program, and all the files from apple work finish, once saved with cwk.

    is there any way i can convert them into something thats compatiable with all other programs and computers?
    HELP thank you

    AW WP & SS files can be opened directly in Pages and Numbers (iWork). From there they can be exported as Word or Excel, but there may be some loss of formatting.
    Just drag WP file onto the Pages icon in the Dock, or a SS file onto the numbers icon. Likewise presentation files onto the Keynote icon.
    Or you can right-click on the file and use the "open with" dialogue to choose the relevant application.
    Databases are less easy.
    You can export AW DB files as ASCII text files which can then be imported into Numbers. Not ideal, but OK for simple lists.
    You can then export them as .csv files which can be imported to most third-party database applications.
    For drawing and paint files, Intaglio looks OK, but pricey. You may find others with a bit of searching, but that's the only current app I found that claims to open AW draw and paint files (as distinct from MacPaint and MacDraw).
    Addendum; I'm told that the ASCII extension can be manually changed to .tsv (tab seperated values) which should also open directly in many database apps.

  • How do I save PSD files created in windows so MAC users can open and work

    I have been designing photoshop files for sale to photographers online and all of my work has been created in a windows 7 system. I had a photographer contact me saying that the PSD was trouble to open and that the fonts would not work on his MAC computer.
    Can someone supply me with information on creating/saving windows PSD files so that a MAC user can open them and also use the fonts I supply with the files.
    The files I create are multilayered PSD's and contain fonts for windows PC use and I don't want to exclude MAC users from utilizing my work.
    Any help appriciated.

    Just save.  There is no difference in files between platforms.
    There are some Windows-centric font formats that aren't portable, by any OpenType or TrueType font will be portable between platforms.

  • How do I send documents from PC to icloud?

    How do I send documents from my PC to Icloud?

    What is it then? How and what exactly do i use it for? My i pad says there is not enough storage available so i have purchased more in i cloud. I now want to save some TV programmes and films to i cloud to free up some space but don't know how to... When you are told there is not enough space to download you are prompted to go to settings and to purchase more storage - so it is not unreasonable to assume that this will solve the problem - or am I missing something here? Or is this just a way for apple to get money out of me?
    If this is not what it is meant for then what is it meant for? Is it just space to back up files to? If so then surely what i need is stored there - so i can delete the TV programmes from my i pad and grab them from i cloud later?
    Am rather perplexed...

  • I want to send a normal pages document as a attachment to someone (non Mac PC). How do I convert the file so they can open it? Silly question but I'm new to Mac.

    I want to send a normal pages document as a attachment to someone (non Mac PC). How do I convert the file so they can open it? Silly question but I'm new to Mac.

    A Pages (.pages) document is only viewable with Apple's Pages application on the Mac, or via Pages for iCloud beta. You should export it to either MS Word (.doc/x) or PDF. The Share menu will let you do this directly into a Mail attachment.

    Hi, this should be your answer as for sharing music. For photos though, I would assume you can do the same thing. Hope it helps!

  • I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

    I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

    Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
    The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
    That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
    SO...
    When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
    Many Thanks!

    Then I'd check the system drive, if it has problems.
    To check your System drive boot into the Recovery Partition, see: OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery
    Restart your Mac and hold down the Command key and the R key (Command-R), and keep holding them until the Apple icon appears, indicating that your Mac is starting up.
    You will see a panel, where you can use Disk Utility to check your System Drive.

  • How do I register my contacts so I can use them on iMessage, Thanks

    How do I register my contacts so I can use them on imessage

    That means that the person you are tying to send a message to is not an iMessage user.
    You can't send them a message unless they have a Mac or iOS device and turn on iMessage.

  • I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

    I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

    Hi KnoopL,
    Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?

  • I can't open any of my Word documents on my Apple Mac. The error code is EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) and the  blame module name is WordArt. The documents are still there, and I can open them on my iPad when I email them there. Any ideas?

    Uhhhhh... Thank GOD... Got all of my files.
    Spent some time on the phone with Apple Care... who was great to deal with but actually... not as helpful as I was hoping. It was suggested that I try DiskWarrior 4 to try to recover the files. $108 later, I had no files.
    More calls with Apple Care and they were pretty sure that everything was gone since once the External drive was installed, like a moron, I let TimeMachine go ahead and back up my new MacBook... so it overwrote who knows how many gig that was my entire MacBook.
    I wasn't giving up so I called Maxtor, the manufacturer of the external drive itself. They suggested file recovery software from I365... which is also a Seagate company (the makers of the drive). The suggested I simply use their demo because the demo version would find the files. If it found them, I could buy the software to restore them.
    It found them! Another $129 after and I was able to restore all of them back to my old PC laptop.
    NOW, I just need to figure out how to get the 50gig of HD video files off of my old laptop now and into my Mac and IMovie so I can actually make some DVDs out of them!
    I get that Macs and PCs are different formats but I think it is ridiculous that formatting still means basically just wiping out or at least treating massive lots of old data as if it isn't there. There's gotta be a better way to do that.

  • I can't send Comcast emails but I can receive them. What is wrong?

    I can't send Comcast emails but i can receive them What is wrong?

    Most email providers have two servers for email. There is an incoming mail server and an outgoing mail server. Check your email account on your device to make sure you have entered the correct address for the outgoing mail server. Also check to make sure you have a user name and password entered even if it says its optional. Make sure the user name and password are correct.
