How to propeerly install iWork User Guides?

I've installed iWork '08 from DVD, plus all the updates from Software Update. When I open any iWork 2008 app and try selecting, e.g. Pages User Guide from the Help Menu, I get directed to a download page on the Apple website in Safari.
Is there a correct way to install the PDFs on my computer so that I can open them directly from each app's Help menu, like how it worked for me in previous versions? Is there a preference setting for this? I tried creating an "iWork '08" folder in library / documentation / applications / iwork '08 next to my previous /iWork folder, but this does not work.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Sky

Hello
This menu item is a wrongdoer.
It seems that when it was defined, engineers didn't know that the user guide would be available on the package's DVD.
For my own use, I installed the Users guide folder in the appliction folder and I call the guide as any other app.
In fact, what is delivered in this folder is a set of three applications which opens the guide version matching the language in use.
As every application, you may drag the icon on the dock.
Then drag it outside the dock and move it back into the dock.
After that, it will be a "permanent" item in the dock where you will be able to call it easily.

  • TA23231 how do I install iWork when received from Apple Store

    How do i install iWork from the receipt for the order.  I tried to find answers on the web, but it seems no-one else has my problem!!

    Open the App Store and sign in with your Apple ID. Click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should be able to freely download the three iWork apps.

  • How can i install iwork dvd in Macbook Air?

    Somebody know how can i install iwork dvd in Macbook Air? I try to use the CD compartment from my Macbook pro, but it don't work... tks

    First, share your MB pro DVD drive on the network in System Preferences > Sharing.
    Insert the iWork DVD into the MBpro's drive.
    Then go to your MBair and click "Remote Disc" in the Finders Sidebar.
    You'll see your MBpro listed in the finder window.  Click the arrow next to The MBpro name and you'll see the shared DVD.  Double click that and the installation process should begin.

  • How can I install iWork on my other computer

    Hi there,
    I recently started using my wife's computer and I'm wondering how I can get iWork on her computer. I bought iWork through the demo in 2009 before the Mac App store existed so I don't have an install disc and can't log into the app store with my Apple ID and download iWork onto her computer.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    It's asking for a serial number because the trial is installed. You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.
    Since your situation is "similar but not identical" you should start your own topic. In my opinion, your situation isn't even similar.

  • How can I install iWork '09 on new MacBook with Lion?

    I have an install DVD for iWork '09 (9.0.3), and I've been running iWork on my iMac for several years without a problem, even after upgrading to Lion. Now I have a new MacBook Air with Lion preloaded and am trying to install iWork on the new machine. I was able to install from the DVD using drive sharing, but when I try to open Pages, Numbers or Keynote, I get a message that says "Pages cannot be opened because of a problem" -- presumably because I need to update iWork for Lion. After downloading the iWork 9.1 update, I tried to open it but get an error message that says "A newer version of Keynote has already been installed."
    This doesn't make sense to me, since the version I installed from the DVD is definitely older. How can I update iWork to run on my new machine?
    By the way, I tried just copying the programs from my iMac with AirDrop, and I get the first error message I mentioned above.

    MN,
    I don't know why the Drive Sharing idea didn't work. I can think of reasons that copying with AirDrop wouldn't work.
    At some point you may just want to give up and purchase Pages using the Mac App Store. It's ridiculously cheap and easy.
    I worry that you have so much inoperable iWork stuff on this computer that it needs a good clean-up, whichever way you decide to go.
    Yvan Koenig has a script to do the purging of old copies of iWork files that you can run before you make any more attempts at installing iWork or any of its components. It the last item on this page as of this writing...

  • How do I install iWork disk on MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina Display and would like to install iWork on it. I do not have the device needed to use disks on this laptop as it doesn't have an optical drive. Is there any way I could download some sort of software and use a key to identify my disk? Or something along those lines because I'm sure apple would have thought that this problem would occur.
    Thanks

    That's why Apple no longer sells disks. All its software is now available on the App Store. So you can either purchase/download the iWork components from there, or, if you have access to another Mac with an optical drive, share the DVD from that across the network (System Preferences - Sharing - turn CD/DVD sharing on) and install that way.

  • How can I install iWork's in my iPad from the CD iWork's 09?

    I purchase iWork's from applestore in a CD, I'd installed it in my MacBook but I can't install in my IPad, how can I do it?

    OS X and iOS require different apps, bought separately. For your iPad you need to get your apps from the app store, not a CD.

  • How to re-install iWork after erasing the disk?

    I had to erase the disk, now after I have installed Maverick I see that I've lost iWork and iPhoto. How can I re-install them without having to pay again?

    Check the Mac App Store.
    Anything you ever purchased (including Mavericks, "purchased" for $0) should appear on your Purchases tab, ready to re-download at any time.
