How to open pages documents on iPad2

I have imported a pages file into iTunes, sync my iPad (2) but when I open pages on the iPad, the file is not there.
can anyone help please?

You need to be using Mountain Lion to automatically have documents in iCloud visible on your Mac. You can go to iCloud.com in a web browser & download the files in an earlier OS.

    You cannot open it on Windows Vista. The only application in the world that opens a Pages document is Pages, and it is Mac OS X only.
    Your options:
    1. Find a Mac with Pages installed, and save the document as doc or pdf, which you can open on Vista.
    or, if that is impossible,
    2. Open the files in a texteditor like Notepad.exe on Windows and try to piece text fragments together to get at least part of your original text back. The images should also be available somewhere, even though all formatting is gone.

  • How to open iCloud documents with ios8

    hi,
    i recently updated my iPad to ios8. and when it asked me to install iCloud drive i said yes.
    Now when i open pages on my iPad, there are no documents.
    when i go to iCloud.com on my mac i can see those documents, so they still exist.
    how can i open my 'iCloud'  documents on pages on my iPad?
    most forums say i need to install the beta version of os yosemite, whom installation is not working those days.
    the only thing i can do was to open a document on iCloud.com on my mac and send it to me via email. from my iPad i could read that email and open the document in pages. But this work only with small documents, a document bigger than 20 Mo, cannot be sent via email ( i'm using gmail)
    please help me, i really need those documents, i'm working with them.
    thank you

  • Unable to open Pages document after emailing to colleague

    I need to send a Pages document to a work colleague, where the document must be in pages format (not pdf or other).
    We both use G4 powerbooks, latest tiger and iwork.
    But when I email the pages document (via apple mail), two odd things happen:
    - the file arrives at my colleague's email address in zip format, requiring unzipping...
    - the unzipped pages file cannot be opened in pages, instead an error message 'the document cannot be opened' is received.
    We've tried using apple mail, thunderbird, webmail, ... but to no avail.
    How can a Pages document be emailed, as a .pages file, and then opened by someone else?
    Guidance welcomed.

    RossM,
    Peggy explained why you need to zip Pages (and Keynote) documents. Mail.app tries to be smart an zips the files for you.
    I recall that I saw a zip attachment in earlier versions of Mail. Now I just see a Pages document icon. When I delete an e-mail with a Pages attachment, it shows up in Trash with a zip attachment.
    When I saved the zip attachment (testname.pages.zip) and unzipped it, some strange name appeared. I then simply removed the zip extension from testname.pages.zip and was able to open the file in Pages.
    I'm not sure if this behavior is specifically with 10.4.6 and Mail 2.0.7 but check your versions and try to rename the "zip" file.
    At least Peggy's suggestion to zip Pages documents before attaching them to an e-mail should work.

  • How to save Pages document as a rtf?

    How to save Pages document as a rtf? There is no option in the export pull down menu on Pages version 5.1. This is possing to be a big problem as an online couse wants documents saved in this format.

    Pages 5.1 is a buggy, crippled disaster. The lack of RTF support comes under the "crippled" rubric.  It lacks about 100 features present in Pages 09. Beware of the buggy stuff, too: there are many reports of data corruption, of users being unable to open files, etc.  Adivse you use Pages 09, or Word.

  • Pages 2.0.2 doesn't open Pages documents from ipad

    Pages 2.0.2 doesn't open Pages documents from ipad 2. Document succesfully transferred as Pages document to computer, but Pages 2.0,2 wouldn;t open it. Version too old?

    Pages 2 is iWork '06, two versions behind what the iOS Pages creates. You need to use Pages '09 which you can purchase from the Mac App Store as a stand-alone application or a retail box of the iWork '09 suite.

  • Open Pages documents from an older version

    I need to open Pages documents from an older version of Pages that I saved to an external drive from a computer that I no longer have access to.  My current operating system is 10.7.5 and I can't upgrade it right now.  I see that Pages 5.0 requires 10.10 or higher and I can't find older versions to download and from what I've read, it doesn't sound like I'd be able to open the old documents with the new version anyway.  I really need these documents. What can I do?

    I found it helpful to convert all my old Pages '08 files to .doc files.  They can be opened by the new version of Pages.
    Since the new version of Pages is no longer back compatible, and so not good for anything you want to keep for a long time, you might consider using an open source word processing application like Libra Office.  That's what I had to do.  After seven years of being a happy Pages user - archiving thousands of files in Pages -Apple has abandoned us.  I no longer think it is wise to use the new Pages and then five years down the road (or sooner) not to be able to open them in a newer version.
    If you would like a quick way to convert your Pages '08 files to .doc, let me know.

  • In Safari why dont I have icon in toolbar that shows how many open pages I have?

    Apparently when using Safari on the iPad there should be a little icon in the toolbar that looks like a rectangle and has various numbers in it. Apparently this shows how many open pages you have. When you tap on that icon, you are shown a page with thumbnails of the pages you have open. Unfortunately my husband's iPad does not have that tooblar icon. I cant seem to find any answers on the internet, from friends, from the IT people at work, the local people who sell iPads. Thanks to anyone who can help.

    That was the case in iOS 4, but its not the same in iOS 5. Apple moved to a tab-based interface for the iPad in iOS 5. The old thumbnail view is no longer included.
    Regards.

  • Cannot open Pages documents that I've worked on.  I open a new document, work on it, then save and close it.  When I try to open the document again, I get the following message: The document "[name]" could not be opened. The file isn't in the correct form

    I cannot open Pages documents that I have worked on and saved.  When I try to reopen Pages documents that I've saved, I get the following
    message:
    "The document “[name of document]” could not be opened. The file isn’t in the correct format.
    The file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format."
    I have downloaded the latest update to iWork, but that doesn't help.
    I use Mac OSX 10.6.7
    I am using Pages '09 version 4.0.5 (852)
    If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
    Best regards,
    New York Mac User

    A few general trouble shooting tips that may apply here:
    1. If you used Software Update to do the OS update(s) to reach 10.6.7, go to http://support.apple.com/downloads/ and download and apply the Mac OS v10.6.7 Combo Updater. The Combo Updater contains some fixes that were not included in the incremental updaters used by Software Update.
    1a. Check that you have the current version of Pages (and of the other iWork applications) installed. All three applications' current version numbers end in .0.5
    2. A common cause of malfunctioning applications is a corrupted preferences file (.plist file). Your Pages '09's plist is at yourname > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iWork.pages.plist
    Quit Pages, locate the file and Drag it to the Desktop (or to the Trash).
    Restart Pages and attempt to open one of the files.
    If all is well, Trash the plist file and empty the Trash.
    If there's no change, AND you've made changes to the Preferences that you wish to keep, drag the file back to its previous location, replacing any new one that has been created.

  • Pages will no longer let me open files that I have previously downloaded, worked on and then saved on my mac. However it will let me open pages documents that I have started from new. I need the other documents to open and can't figure it out. PLEASE

    Pages will no longer let me open files that I have previously downloaded, worked on and then saved on my mac. However it will let me open pages documents that I have started from new. I need the other documents to open and can't figure it out. PLEASE

    I just got my mac a month ago so go easy on me but I was just working with the pages that was already on it, and then today I know it updated, and now I am unable to open a lot of my documents!:(  Idk what you mean by the icloud version lol sorry! As for the version, when I open pages from my apps and click 'about' it says version 5.1? And when I open the document it just goes grey and kind of blinks and doesnt open? No error message or any indication of why it will not open now when I for sure have opened it in the past! Andddd for the OS X I think it is 10.9.1 ??

  • Emailing an opened pages document instead of an attachment

    Having trouble sending an opened Pages document on my custom letterhead as anything but a PDF (which compromises the logo graphics) or an attachment. Can an opened Pages document (have to convert to Word for my recipients) be sent by email without cutting and pasting?

    No, you have to use attachment of a pdf or word file or do the copy and paste.

  • Is there an issue opening Pages documents between iMac and iPad"

    got the most recent version of operating systems and pages on both iMac and iPad; thought I should be able to open Pages document on both computer and device.  am I wrong?

    Make sure you are trying to open these documents in Pages 5. If you're using a Dock icon you had before updating, be aware that the Dock icons are not updated & will continue to launch the previous version which is still in your Applications folder in a folder named iWork 09.
