HT1338 pages not opening documents

my pages application wont open any of my documents. I can choose to open a file with previesw and it will pull up, so that means the documents are there they just arent opening with pages

Let's try the pref.
Quit Pages. Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library".
Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist. Delete that file and relaunch a Pages doc and test.

  • Pages not opening documents

    I have a brand new iMac (one week old) that won't save or share current documents.  I just created the doc, went to save, and the reply I got was "The file Untitled 2.pages couldn't be opened."  What?! Then I tried to share the file and I got the same message.  I am also unable to open any files previously created on my iPad.

    Your iMac comes with 90 days of complimentary telephone support. I suggest that you begin there, Apple explains this in

  • Why does my iPad 1 not open documents in pages from my mac after downloading update on pages on mac?

    Why does my iPad 1 not open documents from my updated mac-pro laptop pages since i updated the mac. Have updated latest pages for iPad 1 it could and still not able to open docs as i could before update on mac-pro

    The most recent version of Pages that you can run on the iPad 1, running iOS 5.1.1, is not compaible with the newest version of pages on the Mac.
    If you had the old version of Pages on your Mac, and off hand I can't remember what version it was, you should still be able to use that version and then it will be compatible with the Pages app on the iPad. I updated to the newest version of Pages some time back but was able to keep the older version as well.

  • Can not open document pages ipad urgent

    Hello everyone, I have the application pages on ipad go to open a document and tells me can not open document help me as I urgently

    I created many documents using Pages and imports other documents into Pages. Now, many cannot be opened while others kept prompting me to choose between two versions -- one from my iPhone and one from my iPad. The weird thing is that I don't even u pages on my iPhone. The app isn't even installed there.
    How do I get my documents back?

  • Index.log - could not open document

    I get error when indexing a folder.
    The document with the problem is named: document.pdf
    Other documents in this folder works fine.
    The  index.log tells:
    Could not open document: W:\Doc\document.pdf-Press Quality.joboptions
    This file is skipped in the created index.
    What is the problem?
    I tried to regenerate the pdf - still the same problem.
    Is the index process looking for the joboption file when doing the indexing job?
    It's a kind of weared as I use this Joboption in other documents without problem.
    I use software:
    Frame Maker 10.
    Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
    Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.

    Hi Bill!
    Thanks.
    My version was 10.0.x
    I now updated to 10.1.13. This did not help.
    How I get there in the first place?
    I work at a company that develops and manufactures machines and systems.
    My job is to produce instruction books, manage and distribute all documentation (manuals, diagrams etc.) to our customers. 
    This is done by gathering all pdf-documents (wiring diagrams manuals etc.) in a doc-folder (documents are contained in sub folders), linking these documents in a master-page (main menu). (Documents in the folders includes pdf documents from other suppliers.)
    When all this is done, I create an index for all documents in the  doc-folder. Then connecting this index to the master page.
    This makes the entire documentation set searchable from the master page.
    Normally, this works just fine.
    But not for this this document.
    I just do not understand what the error actually means.  
    Could not open document: W:\Doc\document.pdf-Press Quality.joboptions
    This "document.pdf" is an instruction manual that can be opened as any other pdf file.
    More ideas are very much appreciated.

  • Preview not opening documents

    Preview will not open documents. The open command will pull up the mini finder, then I select a PDF document (or even a JPG), click OK and then nothing happens.

    Thanks, slug. I might have been born at night but it wasn't last night. I tried that and it still isn't working. When I did the repair permissions I did notice though that there were, literally, pages and pages and pages of "ACL found but not expected" lines in tons of System and hidden folders. I mean, repair permissions took almost 3 hours!! What's up with that?

  • Since I updated my pages to 5.01, I can't open documents created on my iPad today. It says you need a new version of pages to open document.  (My computer says it is installed).  Has any one encountered this?

    Since I updated my pages to 5.01, I can't open documents created on my iPad today. It says you need a new version of pages to open document.  (My computer says it is installed).  Has any one encountered this?

    Well, here's what I found out that works for me...
    I had a Pages icon on my dock, and launching it brought up version 4.3.  But I went to my Apps folder and found the new updated icon there and when I launced that it brought up version 5.01.  So apparently the Apple update process left two versions launchable on my iMac.  Weird...

    My MacBook Pro will not open documents via Adobe Reader. Says I need to aspen Reader in Browzer and accept terms and contitions first. Went through this 3 times and got through to "Finish", closed browser and then retried. No luck. What's going on?? Have no problem with same documents on iPhone and iPad

    After you finished installing did you launch Adobe Reader from your /Applications folder and accept EULA(End User License Agreement)?
    What is your Adobe Reader version?
    What browser are you using and browser version?
    Thank You.

  • Can not open document "xy.key" in keynote 6.

    Hi
    my yosemite crashed while working on a keynote presentation, and after reboot, while opening keynote, it says "can not open document xy.key".
    Googling tells me, that in older versions your able to change the .key extension to zip, and repair that file.
    In Keynote 6 this is not possible anymore regarding to file format changes.
    How can I rescue my 30 Megabyte document?
    Thank you for your answers.

    If other presentations are opening without problems, the file you are trying to open is probably corrupt and unrepairable so open a back up file of the presentation

  • Why can I not open documents in Pages that were created in Pages?

    I am using the most recent update to Pages.  Unfortunately all the documents that I had within the previous version of Pages will not open within the new Pages. Equally, I cannot open any documents that I have just created with the new Pages either. Is there an obvious solution to this? Very frustrating!

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:
