I am a new Mac user and I bought Pages and have no Idea where it is or how to use it?

I am a new Mac user and I bought the Pages APP and have no Idea where it is or how to use it? If I go into Iwork and click Pages it shows 3 documents that I have creates. THe only option I have is to download it. Then If I click it it opend in an app called Preview.
It is in me apps folder in Itunes. I expected it to be an app in my computer.

Pages for IOS and Pages for OSX are 2 different programs, buying one doesn't get you the other, go to the App Store (not iTunes) on your Mac and buy it.

  • I'm trying to restore my phone from back up but am being told the file is corrupt or incompatable with the device, but it's the only device I have! Am quite desperate as I lost all my photos and have no idea where they went or how to get them back.

    I was trying to copy the photos from my iphone onto my laptop, had them selected and then the laptop froze. Was also doing a software update on iphone (which I thoughi had finished). When I went back to the phone the photos were gone. I was also unable to find them on the laptop :-( (they were all of my new little baby)
    On trying to restore from previous backup, I got a message that the file was corrupt or not compatable with the current device, but I only have this phone to use and no other devices.
    I am unable to find any appropriate help topics on apple support. Any advice would be really appreciated

    Because it says it's incompatible when it can't be, I got hope. I get error messages all the time with my iPod and iPhone that it cannot sync and that 'this device is not capapble of connecting to iTunes' stuff. I literally forget that happened, plug it in again and it works, I later realize that iTunes made a mistake, they do that.

  • Somehow my application icon in the dock has disappeared and I have no idea where it went or how to get it back. I am not all that computer knowledgeable. Thanks for your help.

    Somehow my application icon in the dock has disappeared. I have no idea where it went but it contains all my applications that i use. How do I get the application icon to return  to the dock. Thanks for your help. I am not computer literate by any means. Thanks

    Goto your application folder, find your app then drag/drop it back to the dock.

  • Help Please - New MAC User - OS X 10.6.8 Freezing

    Hello......New MAC user after moving from Windows and I have been delighted with the perfomance.  Out of the blue yesterday typing became hesistant.  Today Keyboard quit.  Changed batteries but still no go.  That was quickly followed by the MAC freezing up where I couldn't open anything, without doing a manual shut down, going through the white screen/flashing earth process.  I did a search and followed instructions concerning Disk Repair but I was only offered the Repair Permission option, which I did.  Rebotted but still the same situation.   Total MAC novice here so any advice would be appreciated but in understanable english.... .  Many thanks in advance.

  • HTML in EBAY for NEW MAC USER!  Please Help!

    Hi, I am a brand new MAC user. Just bought a MACBOOK last week. Here is my HTML prob. I sell on ebay. I called apple support and they were not able to help me. When I list my item on eBay, HTML comes up in the description area. On my older PC it was regular readable english and NOT html gobble de gook. Anyone know how to switch over from the HTML junk so I can see the regular english and write about my product? thanks so much. Sorry, I am not a computer guru. I only know how to read email and sell on ebay

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Sounds like they are using non-standard HTML. Try using a different web browser*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/browser.html
    Also verify it isn't your e-mail program that is open when you are viewing the file. Anything via e-mail which can't be converted by an e-mail program will display as just plain HTML. Look to the right of the Apple logo on your top left corner to see which program is active.

  • New Mac User - probably a simple question.

    I am a new mac user. I bought two macs to basically ichat my new daughter with her grandparents. This is the setup
    1. Macbook 2.0 / 2 gig ram with built in isight. Ethernet DSL connection 6 mps down/768 up.
    2. Mac Mini G4 / 1 gig ram with external isight. Ethernet DSL connections 2 mps down/384k up.
    The quality just is very poor on the mac mini side. They can barely make out my daughter. The quality is acceptable on the macbook side. I have read the forum and tried the things I could understand. Under the connection doctor, the macbook side is getting 30fps and the mini is getting only 15fps.
    Besides upgrading the mini to a intel based higher processor, is there anything we can do to get better video quality?
    I tried this new software SIGHTSPEED and the video quality is amazing on both ends.

    Hi Amit,
    The quicktime setting should not be on Automatic or the very top setting of Intranet/LAN as they both have problems with iChat.
    Your download speed means you should use the 1.5meg/T1/Intranet/Lan setting.
    Don't forget the restart of iChat if you have to change the setting.
    If his download is 1.5 meg to 3 meg (half yours) he should also use the 1.5meg/T1 setting.
    Is there any chance he is doing a download at the same time or other internet use ?
    Are there other computers at his end that are on line ?
    There is a vauge chance that the modem at one end can not handle the current speeds you are supposed to get from the ISP. However this is likely to show up in Speed tests when it is a lot lower than what you (both) are paying for.

  • New Mac user disappointed

    Hi all from Italy
    I am a new mac user.Yesterday i bought MacBook Pro here in Milan in an Apple Offical Reseller for 2690 Euros it is like 3000$. I have the heat and the whine problem. I called the Apple service and they said that it doesnt' depend on them because I bought the MacBook by a reseller and i have to deal with him for getting it repaired. Is that ok? I thought I paid so much for having a better service by Apple Italia.
    Sorry for my bad English

    First off... your English is better than that of most Americans.
    Second - didn't you say you purchased from an Apple Authorized Reseller? If so, then it should come with some form of Applecare, which in turn would make it Apple's problem, though you may have to drop it off to the reseller first. It isn't like this is an unknown problem - Apple has been fixing this issue for the past few months.
    I'd say play their game and take it to the location you purchased from and don't leave until they agree to begin repairs. In all likelihood they will send it in to Apple to get it repaired and all will be well.

  • I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    It is now confirmed  that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
    Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
    This might be of some interest to you at this time: Life After MobileMe.

  • I am a new mac user and have a 15 macbook pro (non retina display).  I am having an issue with safari "freezing" ...it will work fine for a while and then I will open a new tab and attempt a website that won't load and after that it seems no website will.

    So yes like mentioned above...i am a new mac user...have only had it about four days and have had a windows based system always before this.  The issue I am having is that I will be in safari and it will work perfect for a while and then i will open a new tab and attempt another website and it will either be extremely slow or will give the error that it cannot connect to the server, however, when i run diagnostics my internet is fine.  The only solution i have found is to reboot and geeksquad has been unable to replicate the problem while connected to my computer to try to do so.  Does anyone have any suggestions or anyone else with this problem?  If you have a "fix" please try layman's terms because again I have no idea about macs haha.  Thanks,

    Hi there
    I think in this case, you may be best to speak with Microsoft about this, as it does seem like an issue with Office, and not your Mac.
    Follow this link, to find your local Microsoft Support contact number.
    Or perhaps create a new topic in the Microsoft Support Communities
    Good luck

  • I am a new Mac user.  How do I easily move files to new locations and folders in Finder, like I was used to doing with Windows Explorer?

    I am a new Mac user, converting from the Windows world.  How do I easily transfer files from one folder location to another in Finder, like I was used to doing in Windows Explorer?

    You can expand Finder into multi-panes, I am not at my Mac right now to get the exact key strokes so don't want to mislead you.  Do so many things on auto-pilot that when someone asks I need the machine so I can get the exact things to click on.
    But you can get the multi-pane view and drag and drop from pane to pane.

    good luck with apple dude..
    Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
    And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
    <The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
    Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.
