I can't open docs with the Pages 5.0

I downloaded Pages 5.0.  Worked nice.  Last night I downloaded word docs from a state website, input information and saved it in Pages.  This morning I am getting pop-ups saying that I need Pages 5.0 to open the document.  Okay.  I went to the Apps page and it says that I have installed Pages 5.0.  How do I get 5.0 to work so that I can open these documents? This is very frustrating and is hanging up information that I need for my clients.
Thank you for your help.

Chaz,
You may still have the iWork '09 apps on your Dock. They won't open documents that have been edited with the Maverick versions of iWork. Drag those old iWork icons off the Dock and drag the new apps onto the dock, if they are not there already.
You can tell the icons apart if you look carefully. The new Pages icon has a yellow pen rather than a black pen, and the new Numbers icon has a 4-column chart rather than a 3-column chart.

  • I CAN NOT open Iphoto with the new Mavericks????

    I can not open Iphoto with the new Mavericks, I changed Dutch for English but stil nothing ....

    Hi Kevertjes,
    Thank you for the update.  I recommend verifying that you are signed in with the same Apple ID associated with or used to purchase iPhoto on the App Store under the Store menu. 
    If you are signed in with an alternate Apple ID, I recommend signing out of the App Store, signing back in with the correct Apple ID, and then trying the update again:
    Sign out
    Choose Store > Sign Out.
    Sign in using an Apple ID
    Choose Store > Sign In, or click Sign In in the Quick Links section. The Quick Links section is located in the right part of the window shown when you click Featured, Top Charts, or Categories in the toolbar.
    Enter your Apple ID and password, and then click Sign In.
    Mac App Store: Sign in and out

  • Can't open .doc files in Pages with Snow Leopard

    I just installed Mac OS X Snow Leopard and Pages can no longer open .doc files. I receive the error message: "The document “XXX.doc” couldn’t be opened."
    (Operating with iWork 09)
    Help?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    But now I don't have the option "save as" word document as I used to before I installed the update for snow leopard. It only lets me save as iwork '06 or '05.
    That's Pages 3/iWork '08. You may have both iWork '08 & '09 on your Mac & '08 has opened. You can have more than one version, I have three, but you'll need to find a way to identify each one. I have changed the icons for two of the versions & have aliases to each in a folder where I added the version number. This way I can know which one I'm opening & they look different in my Dock. Do not add a version number to the actual application, the updaters then won't find them. (Can you tell I like changing icons? )

  • Can t open Docs stored from pages in cloud

    I have been using pages on iPad 2 for sometime with no problems. Somehow this week during some back up the docs left iPad and I can find them in iCloud -storage and backup -manage storage but can t open them or restore to iPad or send. They are just listed. I am a novice at this stuff so any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks for that but nothing changed. I will spend a bit of time turning on and off various things. Should I delete previous back up? Would that restore docs sitting on cloud onto iPad? Thanks in advance.

  • Can't open doc. files in pages

    Ever since I upgraded to Snow Leopard, Pages won't let me open doc files.
    Is there a way I can fix this?
    Also...I was just thinking about upgrading to the newer iLife09.
    Would that be a better thing to do running Snow Leopard and what not?
    And if I do upgrade to iLife09, I'll still be able to open iLife08 documents.
    Thanks

    iLife & iWork are two separate software packages/suites sold by Apple. I do believe you mean iWork '08.
    Many users are finding problems with the iWork apps in Snow Leopard due to not having the latest updates as of the September 28 installed. 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. iWork '09 has since had update 3. 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.

  • Ever since I updated to the iOS 8.0.2 I can't sign into iCloud or my apple account and I can't open some of the pages

    after downloading the new iOS 8.0.2 on my iPad I can't sign into my itunes account or iCloud
    struggles to open pages I also have problems with my iPhone 5S since downloading the software
    can an some help please

    Nellymay,
    I would recommend reviewing this article. You may want to consider beginning at step five: 
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    A restore of the device, and setting it up as new will help with the  software issues you've described. 
    Thanks,
    BobbyD

  • How can I open FireFox with the 'Find' box/bar always open?

    When FireFox opens, click 'Edit' and 'Find'. This opens the box/bar at the bottom of the screen. I use it so often, I would like FireFox to open with the 'Find' box/bar already open.

    You are welcome. Happy New Year, Aivas.

  • Open Word docs with the new Pages?

    Pages does not open. I had the new one installed but apparently had the old one still up. How can I open Word docs with the new Pages?

    Pages 5 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 5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5.1 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud 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 over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • How can I have a Pages document that is shared with me under my Pages section and not open it with the link?

    How can I have a Pages document that is shared with me under my Pages section and not open it with the link?

    Try this.
    Open the document and select and copy a few pages, say ten pages.
    Open a new blank document and paste the pages you copied into that.
    Save it with a new name.
    Work on those new pages to see if the problem has disappeared.
    If this helps, continue breaking up the large file in to smaller chunks and working on them
    You can of course later reverse the process and merge the files into one new one.
    This suggestion is based on my experiences with large Word files. Breaking it up in to smaller chunks does two things. First, if there is any corruption in the old file, the new copies might escape that. Second, the Mac is faster handling the smaller chunks.

  • Can't open .doc files in either Word or Pages!! Any suggestions?

    So I stated having issues with Word not being able to open my .doc files along with a few other things. This prompted me to purchase pages only a few hours ago hoping that it would solve all my problems. Unfortunately this did not solve my problem and now I still can't open them even in pages. Any suggestions?
    I have OS X 10.6.8. Any help would be greatly apreciated as I am a new Grad student and need to be able to access .doc files that are posted online.

    Ok I forgot to try to hit Open With for Word and that worked for one document but I still want to know how to get it open in pages.
    Well you can do the same thing for Pages. From the Get Info window, choose Pages for Open With.
    But you should also be able to:
    drag a Word document and drop it on the Pages icon or
    Launch Pages, choose File > Open, find the Word document using the Open box and click Open.
    If neither works please explain what steps you're following and what happens.
    Thanks.

  • I'm running Pages version 5.2 on a Desktop Mac version 10.9.2. with the Pages app open how do I use the Time Machine to go back five hours to see the work?

    I'm running Pages version 5.2 on a Desktop Mac version 10.9.2. With the Pages app open how do I use the Time Machine to go back five hours to see my page? Can I access Time Machine within an app like Pages? How do I enter Time Machine within the application? It always takes me to the Finder. I apolgise for the mumbo jumbo. I simply do not know how to use Time Machine. It makes sense when I follow the Tutorial but then I lose it.

    OK. You've kind of skipped over the reason why you want to go back five hours, but my assumption would be that you've made changes to a Pages file that you want to revert.
    There are two ways to tackle this. From Pages itself, open the current version of your document, and from the File menu, click Revert To, and Browse All Versions. You'll then be in the Time Machine interface for that file, and can browse back to the version you want.
    Or, outside of Pages, you can select the file (or the folder it was originally in, if you've since deleted it) and enter Time Machine from the TM menu (it sounds like you've already tried this?)

    Hi,
        You may  try checking the help page for ldap configuration :
    https://<Appliance_IP>:215/wiki/index.php/Configuration:Services:LDAP
    ZFS Storage supports LDAP, NIS, AD as directory service.
    Hope Open Directory is also based on LDAP and may work in similar fashion.
