I can't open .cwk with pages

I can't open .cwk text document (AppleWorks 6.2.9) with Pages 4.0 in Lion 10.7.1. Do you know why?

I was in the process of converting my old .CWK document files to Pages w/ my last version of Pages. Then I recently upgraded to Mavericks, which apparently upgraded my Pages. Imagine my horror when I could no longer open .CWK files - I got the dreaded message "Pages cannot open files of this type."
On another post, learned I can use the "Open With" option in File menu. I was able to open the VERY OLD cwk files just fine. Not sure if this will work for other types of CWK files, but this option works fine for document/word processing files, even old ones.

  • I only saved my document in PDF, can i open it with Pages again?

    Hello,
    I have saved my Pages document in PDF and i forgot to save it in Pages...can i reopen my PDF file in Pages again?
    Thanks
    Syl

    I have a Pages v5.1 document that I placed a yellow text background (aka true highlight) on some text. I had one word that was red text with a black underline. Exported this to PDF.
    Double-clicked the PDF to open it in Preview. Pressed command+A to select all 7 pages of text, and then command+C to copy it (as RTF) to the clipboard. Opened a new Pages v5.1 document, and pressed command+V to paste from clipboard. The yellow background and red text survived. The custom black underscore did not. Paste and Match Style will strip everything, including formatting, from the clipboard text. Not advisable.
    You could also select the text in Preview, and from the Preview > Services Menu, choose New TextEdit Window Containing Selection, if you wanted the content in a different document (.doc/.docx, .rtf, .txt, .odt)  format than .pages.

  • I can't open files with Pages

    Im having problems with Pages. when I open the application, I don't see the window that allows me to pick files to open from my computer or the icloud.

    Try installing Pages again.

  • Haveing problems with Safari. It gives me an error message. Safari can't open the web page, because it can't establish a secure connection to the server. It only seams to have a problem on https sites. Any help would be apreciated.

    Safari keeps giving  and error message. " Safari can't open the web page( insert web page here) , because it can't establish a secure connetion to the server.
    It only seams to have a problem with https sites.
    Any help would be appreciated

    The "s" in "https" indicates the site is a secure server--usually a site that will require a password.  Connections to secure servers can be blocked by parental controls.  Are you using any parental controls, either through OSX's settings (in System Preferences) or third party parental control software (such as Netnanny)?  If so, check the settings to make sure they will allow the connection.

  • I was sent a .pages doc.  When I try to open it with pages I'm told "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I have the newest version of pages on my computer. What should I do?

    I was sent a .pages doc.  When I try to open it with pages I'm told "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I have the newest version of pages on my computer. What should I do?

    I wonder if you are running an OS earlier than 10.9.x?  If so, you cannot run the *latest* version of Pages, which is 5.1.  Apple is trying to get you to update your OS to 10.9 Mavericks and then get you to update (but defintiely not upgrade) your Pages version to 5.1.  5.1 is, in everything but name, beta software. It not only has many bugs, it also lacks more than 90 features that are present in version 4.3 ("Pages 09"). One workaround that is to open the file with Pages for icloud (this is explcitly beta) and click tools|download a copy in Word format.  Pages 4.3, which is probably the version you have, can open Word documents.  Get a cup of coffee or a glass of wine before starting Pages for icloud: it is s-l-o-w.

  • Sorry! Something went wrong - I can't open my icloud pages file anymore

    I can't open my icloud pages file anymore. We are two collaborators working on it and she told me the file was freezing. I have said she can reload the file but it didn't work. Then it was my turn. I have tried from desktop but also from Ipad. The Pages app now crash when I want to open this same file. When I load my icloud page, I see the file, it is here, with the last layout, but can't open. I need to recover that document, it's important to me. Is there any assistance @apple to do so?
    Many thanks!

    I have exactly the same issue !! On "Pages", "Numbers", "Keynote"
    - Macbook pro retina 13" late 2013
    Icloud.com tested with Chrome, Opera, Safari, Iexplorer .. same problem
    Try to reset  "Documents and data" from Settings >>> "Could not reset Documents and Data ; there was a problem.."

  • Can't open raw with lumix gx1 elements 9

    Hi Group,
    Windows 7, Elements 9   Panasonic lumix gx1
    I tried acr 6.5 but it won't open the lumix raw files.  One site I found said that this camera needs 6.6 but that update failed.  I don't won't to update to elements 10 as I see no reason to do this.  Does anyone know what or if it's possible to get these files to open in Elements 9?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    I finally downloaded the coverter.  I refuse to buy Elements 10 when there is nothing new that I need.  Maybe 11 when I see what it does but I doubt it.  The coverter works just fine. Michael

    Actually, the problem is that Adobe seems to be wanting to force their users into purchasing otherwise unnecessary upgrades.  I, too, use Elements 9, and it does everything I need...except read the RAW files from my new GX-1. Yes, I can download the DNG converter (and I have), but that adds an extra, and unnecessary, step to processing.  Adobe's reputation for not respecting their customers isn't unwarranted.

    anything with flash on any of my browsers (Safari, IE)
    and it just keeps on running in circles...like it tells me to
    go to the download page and then i would download it and install
    the software, but after installation, it directs me to the

    "The page “Macromedia - Flash Player” has content
    of MIME type “application/x-shockwave-flash”, but you
    don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in
    should be available on this page:
    https://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer
    Do you want to open the page?"
    and when i open the page. it's just the page where I
    downloaded the Flash Player...
    it just keeps going back in circles after i've done it like 8
    times already!
    URGGHHH!!!! help!

    and just any webpage with flash movies...it would just say
    that "either your javascript is turned off or you do not have flash
    player installed" something like that!!!! SOOO ANNOYING!
    and there isn't any help on the forum at all!!!!
    anyways. i'm with Mac OS X 10.3.9 on a PowerPC Powerbook

    Are you using any MS Office third party Add-ins? Test:  Remove third party Add-ins other than PDFMaker.  Test to see if the MS Office apps run afterward.
    Did you attempt to repair MS Office?  Test:  Go to Add/Remove Control Panel run Repair.
    Finally, have you tried testing to see if it's PDFMaker?  Test: Use the Add/Remove Control Panel to modify the Acrobat installation to remove PDFMaker.  See if MS Office applications launch and behave correctly?

  • My word perfect documents have been changed to .doc but I can't open them in pages. ugh!

    my word perfect documents have been changed to .doc but I can't open them in pages. ugh!
    they are wpd files from around 2001-2003 that my Dad emailed me and on a PC was easy to simply relabel as .doc but despite this I cannot open in pages or convert to pages.
    Please can you help me?
    cheers!
    DT

    In fairness to Pages, only apps that can handle Word Perfect docs of that vintage can open them, either.  W
    As Viking said, changing the extension does nothing to the file structure & metadata of the document.  At one time Mac people didn't bother with the extensions, because they were simply a visible indicator of the app that made them, and the Mac would get that information from the file itself.
    Since you changed the extensions, some Windows apps may still use those extensions to tell them the file source. When they try to open a .wpd file as if it were a .doc file, they will get very confused.
    You can try to open the files by using the Menu> Open command, with the setting of "all files."  IF and only if the app can handle .wpd files, then maybe it will open it & ignore the extension.

  • BTFON connects but I can't open any web pages

    I'm away from the address where my home hub is so I've been trying to use BTFON. I can connect fine but I can't open the landing page or any other web pages due to DNS errors.
    I've checked that my DNS settings are set to automatic and it seem to be picking up the correct servers (192.168.22.22 and 192.168.22.23). I also get an IP address starting with 10. I've tried clearing my browsing history and disabling my firewall/anti virus software but still haven't succeeded.
    Anyone got any experience of this sort of issue?

  • HT5051 Can I use Dropbox with Pages?

    Can I use Dropbox with Pages

    True that gets the file into Dropbox, and yes you can use the dropbox app and open in app protocol all for free but that does mean you have to open two apps have the iPad do some manipulation with duplicate files copied.
    What dropdav does is contain everything within Pages.
    Your working in Pages and want to edit a document you know is in your Dropbox you simply tap on the + in the top left of the Pages document screen scroll to copy from Webdav and all your Dropbox files and folders show up right there WITHIN Pages thusly
    Any compatilbe file is bold and can be opened DIRECTLY in PAGES edited and returned seemlessly with the copy to Webdav or yes the print to Dropbox (Both work)
    The key is Webdav integration within Pages allows for external file transfer.

  • Can not open any web page in Safari

    can not open any web page in Safari on the IPad.  All other wireless features work fine.

    If this does not work then try a reset ,
    Reset your iPad by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPad  will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
    Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
    Good luck and do report back.

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path

    Snow Leopard 10.6.2 CS4 InDesign can't open files with a "#" in file path using any of these perfectly normal methods:
    1. double-click file in the Finder (e.g in a Folder on your Mac or on your Mac desktop etc.)
    2. select file and choose "File... Open" command-o in the Finder
    3. drag file to the application icon in the Finder.
    4. Select file in Bridge and double-click, choose File.. Open.. or Drag icon to InDesign icon in dock.
    If you try to open an ID file named with a "#", you will get an error message "Missing required parameter 'from' for event 'open.'"
    This happens to any InDesign file that has a "#" (pound sign, number sign, or hash) in the filename or in the file path (any parent folder).
    To reproduce
    Name an InDesign file Test#.idd Try to open it in the Finder or Bridge (as opposed to the "Open" dilaog of InDeisng itself).
    "Solution"
    The file WILL open using File... Open... command-o while in InDesign application.
    Rename the file or folders that have a "#" (shift-3) in the filename.
    Report to Adobe if it bugs you.
    This does not occur in "plain" Leopard 10.5 nor Tiger 10.4
    Untested in Panther or before and
    Untested with CS3 and earlier in Snow Leaopard.
    Anyone have those and want to try this... ?

    In case this really bothers you: we've added a workaround for this into Soxy. If you enable the option, these documents will open fine on double-click.
    You need Soxy 1.0.7 from:
    http://www.rorohiko.com/soxy
    Go to the 'Soxy' - 'Preferences' - 'Other' dialog window, and enable 'Open InDesign via Script'
    (Irrelevant background info (it's all invisible to the user): the workaround works by special-casing how Soxy opens documents in InDesign: instead of using AppleScript, Soxy will use ExtendScript to instruct InDesign to open the document - which works fine).

  • Can't open NEF with Camera Raw from Bridge

    I recently updated to CS6 and got a new Nikon D600.  Downloaded the lastest DNG converter but when I pull up files in Bridge I can't open them with Camera Raw anymore.  My process was to open in Bridge.  Select the NEF files I wanted then click mouse+control, which gave me a menu to open in Camera Raw.  Now my only option is Photoshop CS6.  I downloaded the trial for Photoshop CC and Bridge CC but still can't select to open with Camera Raw.
    What is going on?  I have never had issues like I have been.  HELP Please.

    From your description it sounds as if Camera Raw isn't installed, or is installed incorrectly. In Photoshop go to Help/about plug-ins/Camera Raw and verify that you have it installed correctly. Since you are on a Mac, I cannot advise as to where it should be installed.
    The other thing I have been thinking about in your situation is, how were these images downloaded from your camera?if you used an older version of Nikon Transfer it can alter the files so that they cannot be opened in Camera Raw.
    Do you have other software like ViewNX2 or CaptureNX2, and will those programs open your files?

  • Can't open pdfs with Adobe Acrobat X

    I can't open pdfs with Adobe Acrobat X. I get this message:
      Warning: Distiller will not process .Log, .PDF or .JDF file extensions
    What do I need to do to be able to open .pdf files? I could open them previously.

    What are you getting the message in response to? Was this a creation of a PDF that resulted in the message? What are you using Distiller for? Distiller can only open PS and EPS files for processing to create a PDF.
    PDF files are opened in Acrobat. For opening PDFs, Distiller has nothing to do with the opening. So I really have no idea. It sounds like you may just be having a creation error since you mentioned a log file. If you were creating a PDF, have you checked the LOG file for the errors? The log file is usually located where you were going to create the PDF, but is created as Distiller processes the file (part of the general Acrobat creation process) and is deleted if successful.
    If you were trying to create, go back to the original application and print to file with the Adobe PDF printer. Then open that file in Distiller to create a PDF. Any errors will be shown in the window and an indication if the PDF was created or not.
