I can't save my open documents in Pages.

I have 2 untitled documents in pages open. I have the animated progress bar spinning and spinning. - I have tried to reinstall Pages but that dosn't cut it. What to do ?? Please help.

Hey fruhulda,
I have a similar problem although I'm running OSX 10.9.5. I'v just started to completely remove pages and attempt a reinstall. I did the search for the plist file. There was only one file with the com.apple.iwork.pages name but it did not have the .plist extension, even when I checked the info page. Is this the same file?
I'm not sure I want to update to Yosemite yet, but it looks like I may have to in order to continue to work with my pages documents, unless the reinstall works.

Can't save a word document in pages

hello all, hopefully someone can help me because i am very frustrated with pages. I recently bought my 2011 macbook pro for school this fall. I transferred all my data from old macbook to this macbook. I needed a new word processing program, so I decided to download pages. Since the download I cannot save anything as a word document and for my school you need everything to be a .doc document to open on the schools computers. Every time I try and save a .doc document it comes up with an error saying:The document “Untitled” could not be saved as “essay one”. You don’t have permission. To view or change permissions, select the item in the Finder and choose File > Get Info. Being a college student I write 2-3 essays weekly and this is getting ridiculous that I cannot save documents as .doc when it gives me this option. I have went to file get info and went to change my permissions it says my name Danielle: and gives me to options read only and write and read only. It also gives the options of staff and everyone to read only, to write and read, and only for everyone is has the option no access. I really need someone's help!! So if anyone is out there write me back! Thank you!

The point is, where are you trying to save to?
It maybe you do not have privileges on your server.
Have you tried saving elsewhere, such as in your Documents folder, then dragging the file across to wherever it is you want the file?

How can I save a scanned document in pages app on my ipad? Thanks

ALso would anyone know how to rename a document in iCloud?

Hello Yvonne.
Specialized OCR software may be needed in order to save files directly to Microsoft Word format. Our software does not have this capability.
If you are attempting to scan a basic, text-only document. You can use our IJ Scan Utility to scan and make adjustments.
1. Start, point to (All) Programs, Canon Utilities and then open the Canon IJ Scan Utility.
2. Click 'Settings' on the lower right corner.
3. Click 'Document Scan' on the left.
4. Under 'Application Settings' on the right, select 'Start (OCR)' and choose 'Canon My Image Garden' in the menu.
5. Click OK.
6. In the IJ Scan Utility, click 'Document'.
When scanning is completed, Notepad will open and you will be able to edit and save your document.

How do I save an older document to pages '09 so I can open it in the versions of pages?

How do I save an older document to pages '09 so I can open it in the versions of pages?

Best is to Export to Word .doc files, just about all of the many versions of Pages can open those.

Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''

How can I save my word documents in ICLOUD

How can I save my word documents in ICLOUD

You can't directly, as Microsoft don't include iCloud support in their apps.
You'd have to open your Word file in Apple's Pages and save it to iCloud from there.

What program can I use to open documents

What program can I use to open documents with; if I am running OSX 10.6.8 and only have Text edit?

What kind documents of documents do you want to open? Just to read or write too?
Besides TextEdit, you also have Preview that can display a wide gamut of document types as well.
As for office documents, may want to download and install LibreOffice to deal with the usual suspects: .doc, .xls, .ppt http://www.libreoffice.org/

MacBook Pro OSX 10.9.4 - can't open document in pages - message says need updated version and there aren't any

MacBook Pro - OSX 10.9.4 - trying to open document in pages. Message says can't open with this version - go to app store for update, but there aren't any updates.

Hope apple can fix this soon if new patch 10.9.4 cause this.
Apple cannot fix problems they did not create. Eset and Avast are capable of doing nothing beneficial and can only cause problems. Uninstall it and determine if the problems subside.
Use Avast's uninstaller, which will remove it completely. Eset requires using the uninstaller included with its downloaded installation program (see screenshot):
Eset will also require manual techniques to uninstall components its uninstaller leaves behind, a common characteristic of poorly written software.
I am now can access an internet, with zero security.
It's a common misconception that you have "zero security" without junk such as Eset or Avast. OS X already includes robust protections against viruses and malware. Use your Mac the way it was intended to be used - without burdening it with useless garbage.

Applescript to save all open documents?

Hello,
When I close Numbers, I usually have about 15 documents with changes and I have to go through "Do you want to save changes" for all of them.
I've googled and tried, without success, to get a script that saves all open documents, except for untitled ones.
Is there anyone who know such a script?
Fred

Here is a revised version.
The problem was due to the fact that the script save and close the documents.
When I tested it, it was only saving them.
--[SCRIPT save&backup4iWork]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : save&zip4iWork.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:
Aller au menu Scripts puis choisir “save&zip4iWork”
Tous les documents iWork ouverts, ayant déjà été enregistrés puis modifiés seront enregistrés et fermés.
Si la propriété avecSauvegarde a la valeur true, une copie horodatée de chaque fichier est créée.
Si le document principal est de type paquet, la copie est compressée (zip).
--=====
L’aide du Finder explique:
L’Utilitaire AppleScript permet d’activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l’Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus”.
Sous 10.6.x,
aller dans le panneau “Général” du dialogue Préférences de l’Éditeur Applescript
puis cocher la case “Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre des menus”.
--=====
Save the script as a Script: save&zip4iWork.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
Go to the Scripts Menu then choose “save&zip4iWork”
Every open iWork document already saved then edited will be saved and closed.
--=====
The Finder’s Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the “Show Script Menu in menu bar” checkbox.
Under 10.6.x,
go to the General panel of AppleScript Editor’s Preferences dialog box
and check the “Show Script menu in menu bar” option.
if the property avecSauvegarde is set to true, a dateTime stamped copy of each document is also created.
It's zipped if the main document is a package.

Can I save MS Office documents on iCloud?

Can I save MS Office documents on iCloud? If so, how?

What is your Mac OS X version? If you have Yosemite on all Macs and iOS 8.1.2 on all mobile devices and upgraded to iCloud Drive, you can store any type of document in iCloud on iCloud Drive and keep it up to date on all devices. Simply create a folder for your MS documents on iCloud Drive and drag the documents over. See: iCloud Drive FAQ
With Mac OS X 10.9 or earlier, try Winston Churchill's User Tip:

How do I save an old document in Pages 09 first?

how do I save an old document in Pages 09 first?

If you are dealing with a Pages '08 document and find that Pages v5 no longer supports it, here are your options for reading that content in Pages v5. Pick the best one for you:
On a machine with Pages '08, export as an MS Word (.doc) document
On a machine with Pages '09
Open and save as a Pages '09 document
Open and export as an MS Word (.doc) document
Upload the Pages '08 document to the free zamzar conversion service, and receive a downloadable .docx via email link in about 4 minutes.
Install the iWork '08 DVD on your current machine (including Yosemite) then immediately update with the following:
Pages '08 v3.0.3
Numbers '08 v1.0.3
Keynote '08 v4.0.4
Purchase and/or install the iWork '09 DVD
Immediately apply the Apple iWork 9.3 updater.
Some Pages functionality lost in Yosemite.
New installations of iWork '08/'09 DVD, and updates should be followed by Disk Utility to verify/repair permissions.

I can't save my open documents in Pages.
