I cannot open docs in Pages

I have a 27 inh iMac running Muntain Lion.
I cannotopen any fles in Pages 4.2 and all the Templares are blacked out si I cannot start a new page.
How can I overcome this?

First, use Disk Utility to repair permissions.
Second, go  to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences, delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plist file & then restart Pages. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your user Library will appear about halfway down the list.

  • Cannot open favourites using the Firefox tag that usually opens up the menu and a new page.. Now I get the dropdown menu but cannot open a new page, losing the homepage every time I explore, can you say WHY? all other versions worked fine!

    I cannot open a new page from the Firefox favorites menu, it worked before in other versions and this new 5.1 version, but stopped working a few days ago, uninstalled, downloaded a fresh program.. same problem exists. I usually leave my 'Home Page' as a stable page and just open 'new' pages for i.e. Google, Internet Banking etc. the '+' sign on my home page or other loaded pages does not operate, hate having to now constantly sign in to my hotmail home page if and when I open new pages, can you help?

  • I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"?

    I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"? I have back up in the past but the last month I have not. I really want to keep the data.
    So how can I go in and change the setting, It stays ofcourse at the apple screen with wheel. All info is there and the computer works fine, just cannot use it or have been able to log in.

    wjosten is spot on.  If you really want iCloud, then you will need to acquire a new or second hand MBP that can run Lion.

    Do you get any error message whilst trying to open a particular eBay page or do you get a blank page, a spinning beachball or what? Does this happen with all eBay pages or just one page?
    If you'll post the url to a particular page, we can check and see if we have any problems accessing the page.

  • Why Safari 4.0.4 cannot open some web pages?

    Safari 4.0.4 cannot open some web pages, while Firefox 3.5.7 works like a charm.
    I tried to open http://www.bdnews24.com/bangla/ for which Safari gets stuck (never opens the page, except for the first word of the first line), but Firefox shows the page very well. The same problem happens for some other web sites as well (e.g. http://www.prothom-alo.com/).
    (I have Ekushey Bengali AAT fonts, and they are working fine in Firefox and other applications. So this cannot be a font issue.)

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
    Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1594
    Make sure you are running Safari in 32-bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.
    In case it could be a font issue in the future this may help.
    Try clearing the font cache. In order to do that you need to boot in Safe Mode.
    Shut down your Mac.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple and progress indicator. During startup in Mac OS X v10.4.x or later, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login window, even if normally you log in automatically. Boot time is a minute or two longer than a normal boot.
    After your Mac boots to the Desktop restart the computer normally, without holding any keys during startup.
    What this process does... It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/
    Restart your Mac and try Safari.

  • Since installing Open Office 4.0 I cannot open .doc files on the fly, used to work before.

    I've recently upgraded to Open Office 4.0. Now cannot open .doc attachments from Thunderbird. I can download to disc and open into Open Office Writer with Power Desk or Windows Explorer in the usual way. I've checked tools/options/attachments and it's set to Open Office Writer. I think this is irrelevant, but when I had Open Office 3.0 I had Writer set as a separate program, but I am now using just the master front end.
    Works OK with .pdf or .jpg files.

    just delete the entry from the attachments windows and then try and open a doc file. The entry will be recreated using your responses.
    I am guessing the existing Writer is not the correct Writer.

  • I cannot open My Land page on eRepublik online game. Can this be fixed?

    I play an online game called eRepublik (www.erepublik.com) and I cannot open My Land page. The page has it's own progress bar that shows how much of it has loaded and it gets ti 97-98% and stops.
    I'm using Android 2.2 FROYO on Samsung GalaxyS.
    I tried Opera and Dolphin browsers and they both open it, so it has to be a Firefox ussue.
    Both 6.0 and 7.0 beta has this issue.
    Changing the User Agent doesn't fix this.
    I really love firefox so please fix that

    Looks like the site might make use of Adobe Flash. At this time we don't have support for the Android Adobe Flash plugin. We are working on getting Flash to work but it has been a difficult path as the Android Flash plugin is quite different from the desktop version.

  • Cannot open the update page on App Store on my iPad.

    Hi,
    I cannot open the Update page on the App Store on my iPad since a few days ago. The same Apple ID works fine on my iPhone. Anyone knows what goes wrong and how to fix it? Thank you.

    iOS Reset -
    Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.

  • Cannot open doc perviously saved with pages v5.0. Message states need latest version which I have!

    Having created a new document using latest Pages ,v 5.0 (downloaded when I upgraded from Mountain Lion to OSX Mavericks) and saved it, when I try to open it, I get a message, " You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." The strange thing is that all my other previous docs created using iWorks , Pages, version 09, open successfully when I double click on them, although they now contain the "improvements" introduced by the upgrade to latest version of Pages. Can anyone suggest why new docs cannot open when created recently with the latest version.

    Pages 5.0 is indeed the latest version, but are you sure you're using Pages 5.0 to open the document?
    The Pages icon should look like this:
    If it doesn't, you're actually using an older version of Pages to open the document.  This is quite possible, because the Pages update didn't always place the new icon in your dock.
    If the new icon is not in your dock, find it in your Applications folder and drag it there.  You can drag the old one off your dock as well.

  • Unable to open .doc in Pages

    Recently I had my laptop fixed at Apple. From this, they wiped everything out and upgraded all of my software. I came home and updated all of my iWorks programs - pages, numbers, keynote. When I typed up a document in Pages I exported it and saved it as a word document. Normally I can open the document back up after it was converted to a word document however, now I am unable to open up any of my documents which have been saved to a .doc. With this being said, I basically cannot open up any of my work which needs to be edited. What can I do to fix this problem?

    An immediate remedy would be to download Libre Office, then you can work while investigating Pages issues.
