I can"t open any pages documents after failure occurred while trying to close a document

I noticed that I am not the only one with this problem. I think it's an apple glitch. It is telling me that I need a newer version but I already upgraded it with OS X mavericks download. Come on apple fix this problem I do school work on my computer and if I did not save it in a DOC file I can not retrieve it. This is major problem, I have deadlines.THANKS!

Since you have already updated to Pages 5.2 on your Mac, you have two versions of Pages on your Mac & are trying to open Pages 5 documents with Pages 4. Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there then right-click on the Dock icon & select Options > Keep in Dock.
Installing new versions of iWork has never replaced existing versions. This is nothing new. The only thing new is that the '09 apps are moved to an iWork '09 folder if they were purchased from the Mac App Store. If they were installed from disk they should already be in a separate folder in Applications.

  • Updated safari to 6.0.2 app starts but can't open any pages...help!

    updated safari to 6.0.2... app starts but can't open any pages...help!

    I tried turning off extensions as you suggested, Bee, but the problem persists. As you can see Chrome is working. Turning on auto proxy discovery in preferences made no difference.
    The message I get when trying to open a web page is:
    Safari can't open the page "http:www.apple.com/support/". The error is: "The operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted" (NSPOSIXErrorDomain:1)
    Any chance you can decipher this and tell me what it means other than the web page can't open which I kind of figured out.

  • I can't open any pages document

    My associate hasn't executed an apple update in some time.  I typically do.  For over a month, he can't open any Pages doucment I send him. 
    Last night, I did an apple Update for pages that Apple had been requesting I do for about a month.  Now, I can't open any of my own pages documents in 4.3 or 5.0.1.  Documents I created yesterady I can't open.  I'm infuriated with Apple as every recommended update seems to trigger something else to not work as intended.  I'm constactly playing IT guy trying to simply keep thinks working as they're supposed to.  Can anyone help?  Thanks

  • I can´t open any page document. Please help

    i can´t open any page document. Please help

    You do need to give more information. What version of Pages, what version of OS X, have you ever been able to open Pages documents, have you made any changes to your Mac? Please be specific with versions, don't just say "I have the latest." Our crystal balls don't work over the internet.

  • Can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard

    I can't open any excel files after installing Snow Leopard. Is anyone else having this problem?
    I have a standard iWork '08 install. Has anyone experienced? And better yet, know of a fix?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Most users who have had a problem opening Office files with the iWork apps after upgrading to Snow Leopard have the problem fixed by updating to the latest versions. For iWork '08 that is Pages 3.0.3 & Numbers 1.0.3. For iWork '09 it's Pages 4.0.2 & Numbers 2.0.2. I don't use Keynote, but it should also be updated. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

  • Since buying Pages 5.2  can't open any Pages 09 files

    Since purchasing and updating to Pages 5.2 I can't open any Pages 09 files.  Tried various things, nothing working.

    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:

  • MacBook Air can not open any pages in internet.

    Hello, my new MacBook Air (just bought it) can not open any pages in internet. In >System preferences > Network it says that Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet But Skype is working very OK on it at the same time... HELP... Also my old MacBook is working OK.

    Be patient and wait for someone to reply. This is a user to user forum, we are all volunteers. Another thing you can do is contact AppleCare or bring your machine into an Apple Store or AASP. Perhaps they will have some suggestions.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • An error occurred: An error occurred while trying to view the document

    Now my partner meet a trouble about opendocument API.
    There are 2 servers : one is partner’s web server ,which partner’s application run in; other is BO server.
    The above servers are running on different servers.
    There is a web page A , which is running in partner’s web server.
    Page A includes a iframe, whose source is BO documents running in BO server via opendocument API.
    In Chrome, the page A work.
    But in IE, the page A don’t work, then get the error “An error occurred: An error occurred while trying to view the document”
    You can see error.jpg
    I have written the sample page to re-produce this error.
    You can change 1.txt to 1.jsp
    Welcome your advice.

    Hi,
    if it works in Chrome then this Problem is related to IE.
    Maybe the URL is to long? IE can "only" handle 2048 Characters.
    Regards

  • Getting Error message couldn't open XPCOM and can't open ANY pages

    After load of updates were completed, I keep getting this Error 'COULDN'T OPEN XCOM' I can't open any programs or emails, Firefox won't open or IE. Have tried System Restore a number of times without any luck, even that doesn't complete successfully, starting to tear my hair out now.

    This is usually a problem with a failed update that caused a corrupted installation that still has older files.
    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    *Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • Safari can't open any page. Internet is connected.

    iMac OSX 10.6.8 eMail, iTunes etc work. Safari (also Chrome, firefox) cannot open (any) page. Network diagnostics check OK. Emptied cache and reset Safari without success. Restarted OS without success. Can anyone help?

  • Safari can't open any page. Nor can Software update.

    Hi,
    trying to connect but get the following message, "Safari can’t open the page “http:” because it could not connect to the server “”
    I am able to connect with mail and firefox.
    Can't connect with software update.
    Does anybody know why?
    Thank you.

    DNS server codes may help.
    Go to the Apple Menu>System Preferences>Network panel
    -Location - set up a personal location by clicking on the location drop down menu and selecting "add a location". Use a name familiar to you. Once established, select "apply".
    -Next, click on the "Show" drop down menu and select Network Port Configurations. Only Ethernet or Airport ought to be checked (whichever one you use). Move it to the top of the list (you can drag it). Select "apply". Everything else ought to be unchecked unless you use a Bluetooth device.
    -Back to the "Show" menu, select either "Ethernet" or "Airport" (whichever applies to you). Click on the TCP panel. There, if you live outside the US enter 208.67.222.220 and 208.67.220.222 (separate lines) in the DNS servers box - these are Opensource DNS codes. and select "apply". If you live in the US use Verizon's 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 public codes instead of the OpenDNS codes.

  • Hello all.   Hope someone can help me. I recently downloaded some  updates for my imac.  Since doing this the computer starts up but I get no logon box.  The home screen opens but I can't open any programs or files. I've tried rebooting, no joy. Help!!

    Hello all..   I hope someone here can help.  I recently downloaded some updates to my imac.  Since then the computer starts but I get the home screen opening without the logon box.    I can't open any programs or files and if I click on the Safari tab it disappears from the dock.  I've tried rebooting with no joy.
    I contacted technical help at Apple and was told to hold down the ctrl and alt keys with two other keys, I think the S or P keys when powering up. This worked
    and the computer seemed fine but now the problem has reappeared.  Is there a way to removed downloaded updates from the computer or revert it to an earlier state?   Sorry for the long question. Hopefully one of you clever people can help.   Simon

    I use to have iphoto, it doesnt open anymore, it says there is 1.2gigs on that disk.There are many things on here that are the same way. Where do I start?
    It's always good to go with one thing at a time and stay focused on that. Let's start with the OS you're running. Click on the Apple menu > About This Mac. What does it say under Mac OS X version ?

  • Suddenly can't open ANY pages; Firefox works

    When I try to open a page in Safari, it loads for a second, then stops loading. No pages from any site will load. Definitely connected, as if I go to Firefox, pages load fine.
    Tried repairing permissions, clearing cache and history, even repairing disk (none needed). And of course tried rebooting. Any other thoughts appreciated!

    Do you perhaps have Safari Tidy installed? I installed Safari 3 yesterday, and the behavior you describe happened for all Safari 3 pages. I removed the Safari Tidy folder from ~/library/InputManagers, and it all began working.
    (There is a new version of Safari Tidy available for Safari 3 at http://www.zappatic.net/safaritidy/, if you still want your Safari Tidy.)

  • Connected to Wifi but Internet still isn't working and Safari can't open any pages?

    I'm able to connect to Wi-Fi networks, but my Internet is still not opening web pages and none of my applications that require Internet are working.  Is this a problem with my computer or is there something I can do to fix it?

    Then you are probably not actually connected. Go to Settings/Wi-Fi and tap the arrow to the right of the network that you think you are connected to. If the IP is 169..., then no you are not really connected, the iPad timed out and self-asigned the IP when it did not receive one from your router in a timely manner.
    Try restarting/resetting the router, reset it to its factory settings and even check to see if there is new firmware for the router.
