I downloaded a new version of pages but can't get it to work?
I had an older Iwork 06 on the computer, but can't find serial number. I downloaded newest version of Pages, but computer keeps defaulting to the old version and asking for a serial number. Help? Thanks!
First, open Finder, go to Applications folder and delete iWork '06. Then, open Pages and it will use the most recent version

I own a PC and itunes store was running fine on it... up until i downloaded the new version and then it quit working it would load about half way and then quit and turn the store home page white i have tried a few different things including re installing, trying to fix it, but nothing has worked!
this has happened to me once before on an older computer and i could never get it back working then either and it has also happened to another person i know and they also have tried to fix it! i am very fusterated with itunes/apple for not fixing this issue becuase it has happened to many others as well!!
any help would be greatly appreciated!
THANKS!!!I've been working on this all day!!! I've tried everything I know of and can't get it to load either. Sounds like lots of people are having problems. Here is what I have so far...I have uninstalled EVERYTHING on my pc from apple and reinstalled itunes to no avail. I have tried all sorts of things I've read as fixes online. NOTHING has worked. Here is something interesting that i have noticed though. my main pc (which is the one i have always managed my itunes account with for years) is a 32 bit system running windows 7. Yesterday I installed itunes for the first time on my new netbook which is a 64 bit (windows 7) system and it works just fine. i have three other laptops (all window 7) in my household that are all 64 bit operating systems and ALL have updated to 10.5 and THEY ALL work fine. this is FOUR 64 bit systems ALL updated w/10.5 that work and ONE that is a 32 bit that will not. Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next. I'm out of ideas and patience!

my mac pages wont let me access any of the documents i have editied on my ipad with the new update. Every time i click on a document it says u need to download the new softwhere, but i already have! So why isnt it working! i need to access those files asap
Are you sure you're trying to open these files in Pages 5? Installing the updates does not remove previous versions of the iWork apps & if you have a Dock icon for the previous version that will also not be deleted.

Downloaded current ipod updater? check. but can't get it to work.
(I apologize in advance if this has already been addressed/answered.)
I've downloaded the most recent update for ipod, it's installed in my computer but I can't get it to run. It always prompts me to restart my computer, which I do...then nothing. It's this constant cycle of trying to get the update to run and nothing works. Also, I've noticed my computer runs really slow and keeps freezing while I attempt to do this - I don't know if that's related.
2. I can't get my computer to recognize my iPod. I've tried ALL (and I do mean all of them...repeatedly!) of the steps the website offered (try a different USB port etc., rename the disk drive -- only problem being the computer doesn't recognize the F drive or whatever is associated with my ipod) plus some of the tips offered on this forum (there are some really helpful & knowledgeable folks here!) and nothing.
It's driving me insane. As much as I try and solve it myself, I'm starting to get really confused.
Can someone help a girl out?

I have a 3.6.23 Version of Firefox & am trying to upgrade to the latest version
Hi,
There's information on that here: [[Installing Firefox on Linux|Installing Firefox on Linux]]

Mozilla didn't work so I deleted it thinking I could download a newer version. Since I can't get online, I can't do that. Now what do I do?
Are you trying to reinstall Firefox? If you open up Internet Explorer on your computer, can you get online? If you can't get online there then you likely have some sort of connection issue.
If you Can get online with Internet Explorer, simply go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], and press the Download Now button. Click "Run" then install Firefox on your machine. If you still have troubles after installing Firefox, please let me know and we can fix those.
[[Installing Firefox on Windows|Installing Firefox on Windows]] has detailed installation information if you would like to read it. -

I can't open a doc in Pages, msg says I need "newer version of Pages" but it's already downloaded and updated. Help plse
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:

I downloaded the recent Pages update but now I can not open some documents done in the past year. I get an error saying that I need to download a newer version of Pages. I am running version 4.3. Do I have to purchase an update of Pages?
You are not on Mountain Lion anymore, right? You are on Mavericks and have downloaded Pages 5 and then created docuemnts in it which can't be opened in Pages 09.
No, you don't have to buy a newer Pages but you have to be particular about which version you use. -
Can't open a document I was writing yesterday- alert says it needs a new version of pages, but I only updated it in August 2014. Help please!
You have two versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages v5.2.2 in /Applications
Pages ’09 v4 in /Applications/iWork ’09
When you open a Pages ’09 document in the default Pages v5.2.2, it is converted to the latter exclusive, new document format, and is not directly backwards compatible with Pages ’09. You would have to use Export To > Pages ’09 in Pages v5.2.2.
If Pages ’09 is running, with/without an open window — double-clicking a Pages v5.2.2 formatted document, or attempting to open said document with the Pages ’09 document chooser, will generate the dialog you saw. It really means you cannot open this newer document format with your older version of Pages. There is nothing to download, because the cause of this dialog is simply having Pages v5.2.2 installed.
You can open actual Pages ’09 documents:
Right-click, Open with > Pages (4.3)
Via Pages ’09 document chooser
Drag/drop Pages ’09 document on the Pages ’09 Dock icon
Pages ’09 File > Open…
Pages ’09 File > Open Recent > -
I downloaded the new version of pages about a month ago. Today I tried to open documents that I created and saved with the new version and received a message that I needed to download the new version. The app store shows the download. HUH?!?
I'm not sure what you mean by it making accessing files more complicated. I have both Pages 4.3 & Pages 5.1 icons in my Dock as well as Numbers 2.3 & Numbers 3.1. I continue to use the iWork '09 versions for my everyday needs. As long as the new versions are in your Applications folder & the '09 versions in the iWork '09 folder, Software Update will not have a problem updating them even if Apple should come out with a new update for the '09 versions.
Because I have moved the new versions to an external drive & renamed the apps because I want '09 to be the default apps, I do have to remember to move them back to my applications folder & restore the original names before updating. But since you like the new versions this "complication" doesn't apply to you. -
I use pages to draft forms that i repeatedly edit and use in my business. Ex: letterhead, envelopes, and legal forms. I recently drafted a legal form
for a client. saved it and then reopened and printed the next day. now when i try to open that form, ( or letterhead or envelope) i get a message that
it wont open and that i need a newer version of pages. but my pages software is up to date. Whats up with this??You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
