I lost my keynote and pages file

How do I restore keynote and pages file that seem to have vanished in icloud?

Thanks Carolyn. But i still cant retrieve the files. They have vanished.  This is an embarassement to apple and its systems and an inconvenience to people like me who have lost the file. This is the only time i lost my file when i didnt think twice and just allowed the Keynote and pages files created to be stored on icloud. It was there for a few weeks and then suddenly i realised i coldnt find it anymore.
Thanks so much for your help and feedback.
Cheers

  • Keynote and Pages files on Ipad

    My Videos app is crashing after renting a video on iTunes - so I want to restore settings.  Will I lose Keynote and Pages (and Goodreader, etc.) files when this happens - or will I get them back when I sync?

    Not if you restore from a backup you've made on iTunes.  All the settings, etc. will be the same.  Of course, there may be corrupted files in the backup that are causing your crash.  Give it a try and see what happens.

  • "/Rotate" keyword in PDF files is ignored in Keynote and Pages

    Hi,
    Some PDF files have "/Rotate" tag in their header to display a part of pages or whole pages being rotated. For example, if a PDF has "/Rotate 90" in the header, pages of the file are shown with being rotated 90 degree clock wise. This keyword is valid in Acrobat, Preview.app, MS Office and many other applications. However, the "/Rotate" keyword is ignored in Keynote and Pages.
    Here is examples of PDF which include /Rotate tag. Please save the following text in a file whose extension is ".pdf".
    === Example 1 (not rotated) ===

    Both of PDFs are displayed in Keynote with a size of 612 x 792 pixel. But the example 2 should be 792 x 612 because it has "/Rotate 90" tag in it.
    Does anyone know how to avoid this problem? Of course I know that I can rotate the example 2 by hand in those applications.

    Hi,
    Please use the following examples, but replace "@dummy1@" with "[", and "@dummy2" with ">>", in TextEdit.app. It should work.

  • I have lost all of my keynote templates now that I have upgraded to yosemite.  How can I use Keynotes and pages etc on my computer and not on the cloud.

    I have lost all of my previously created keynote templates now that I have upgraded to yosemite. How can I use Keynotes and pages etc on my computer and not on the cloud.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    All iWork apps allow you to save your documents on your computer. You will be able to choose the destination when you want to save a document.
    You can also disable iCloud for some apps. To do that, go to System Preferences -> iCloud, press "Options" next to "iCloud Drive" and disable the apps you want to.
    If you have lost your old documents, you should have a backup that you made before upgrading to OS X Yosemite, so you only have to restore it.

  • I was using my pad to work on keynote, and pages, I took off for a few days and all my files are un accessible.  How do I fix this?

    I was using my I pad for work and school using keynote and pages I took off for a holiday  and now my doc are not available on my pad. How did this happen and how do I fix this?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • How do I add a color pallet for Keynote and Pages?

    This seems like it should be straightforward, but I need to add a new color pallet for use with Keynote and Pages.  I have the .clr file, but I'm not having any success getting it to show up in the color picker.

    Within Keynote, show the colour palette (command shift C   or   view > show colours)
    click the image palette button (arrowed)
    click the Palette drop down menu and select either: new from file or new from clipboard

  • I hate macbook air. in keynote and pages -inversion colours. cannot change it.

    in keynote and pages the project is viewed in inversion colours. cannot change it to show in origin. so, cannot create effective ppt or pages.
    I use it on Macbook air. trial version. (i cannot buy it as i am a foreigner and work in China. no visa card and cannot open it as in china for foreigners they do not open).
    i am really tired. already 3 days trying to create a normal ppt but its preview is shown in inversion colors. i tried to push every bottom and every option in the menu - no option to change preview on origin color style. as a result - no ppt and no pages. i start to hate macbook as i still keep dependent on my laptop with microsoft windows.
    i took a trial version of iwork as i need to use excel, pages and ppt along for my work. realy hate macbook as it makes me limited.

    I downloaded an instalation file of a trial version. found it in google. it looks like very official and has references on appstore along. I did not update Iwork as it didn't require any updates.
    PS. yes, cannot use pages and keynote on my macbook air.

    Did you update iWork after you installed it? It is now at version 4.3 and it sounds like you have an older version, not updated for the Retina display.

  • I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!

    I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!

    If there are fonts, transitions, builds, video or audio in the PowerPoint file that are not compatible with Keynote, it will either prevent the presentation opening or Keynote will substitute the settings causing playback changes.
    I use Open Office to play and open any PowerPoint files sent to me, they play exactly as in PowerPoint.
    Open Office is free, you can download it here:

  • Slow keynote and pages

    Why does it take 2 seconds to move an object in Keynote and Pages?

    Back up all data to at least two different storage devices, if you haven't already done so. One backup is not enough to be safe. The backups can be made with Time Machine or with Disk Utility. Preferably both.
    Erase and install OS X. This operation will destroy all data on the startup volume, so you had be better be sure of the backups. If you upgraded from an older version of OS X, you'll need the Apple ID and password that you used, so make a note of those before you begin.
    When you restart, you'll be prompted to go through the initial setup process in Setup Assistant. That’s when you transfer the data from a backup.
    Select only users and Computer & Network Settings in the Setup Assistant dialog—not Applications or Other files and folders. Don't transfer the Guest account, if it was enabled.
    After that, run Software Update.
    If the problem is resolved after the clean installation, reinstall third-party software selectively. I can only suggest general guidelines. Self-contained applications that install into the Applications folder by drag-and-drop or download from the App Store are usually safe. Anything that comes packaged as an installer or that prompts for an administrator password is suspect, and you must test thoroughly after reinstalling each such item to make sure you haven't restored the problem.
    I strongly recommend that you never reinstall commercial "security" products or "utilities," nor any software that changes the user interface or the behavior of built-in applications such as Safari. If you do that, the problem is likely to recur.
    Before installing any software, ask yourself the question: "Am I sure I know how to uninstall this without having to wipe the volume again?" If the answer is "no," stop.
    Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it.

  • I cannot open Keynote and Pages in iPhone/iPad iOS 7

    After updating to iOS 7 and iWork for iOS, I'm no loger able to use iWork for iOS when iCloud is turned on.
    I've two apple accounts, one for Mexico store and another one for US store. A couple of yeard ago I purchased Numbers for iphone/ipad using MX account, and Keynote and Pages for iphone/ipad using my US account.
    Before updating to iOS 7, I was able to use iCloud for keynote, numbers and pages without any problem. All my documents were backed up on the MX account in iCloud. My iphone/ipad was logged into iCloud using my MX account all the time.
    After updating to iOS 7, I keep using my MX account for iCloud, but I'm no longer to open Keynote and Pages (which were purchased with my US account) when iCloud is activated for them.
    What's going wrong with apple?! I think iOS 7 is very buggy and it is the worst OS they have ever make available for users!!! Can't believe the amount of errors I keep finding in most of Apple apps!!!
    Please advice! Regards,

    keynote and pages are now free, but why do i need to pay for them still when there now free?!?

    Users can obtain the iWorks and iLife applications free, if they purchased a Mac after the beginning of October 2013.
    Older Mac purchases require a paid purchase of these applications.

    No, Pages and Keynote do not come installed on a new Mac. You have to purchase them separately.
    If I buy Keynote and pages using my apple ID, can I install the apps both in my macbookpro and air by one purchase?
    Yes, anything you buy in the app store can be installed on your other Macs so long as you use the same Apple ID.
    Can I upgrade Keynote and pages though I bought in online appstore?
    Not exactly sure what you mean. If you mean can you install it from the app store even thought you already bought it, then yes you can.
    What is difference buying i work CD beteween buying app. I'm curious because to buy in appstore is much cheaper
    The iWorks looks cheaper in the App store because you can buy each of the apps separately.

  • Keynote and pages

    I was deleting photos from my iphoto and I apparently deleted the Keynote and pages on my Mac OS X 10.6.8. I went to click on my widgets on the dock and a question mark shows up on both. I believe I accidently deleted keynote and pages out of my system. How can I recover them?

    Reinstall them from the disk or trial download originally used to install them or the computer's original disks. If you got them from the Mac App Store, go to its main page, click on Support under Quick Links, contact Apple, and see what they say.

  • Keynote and Pages show as not purchased

    Upgraded laptop to new Pro. Why would Keynote and Pages not show up as previously purchased?

    Robert...
    Make sure to sign to the App Store first. Then it should say Installed.
    And check to see if the purchases are, "hidden" > Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • Keynote and pages stopped working after update

    i had older versions of keynote and pages. they were fine but obviously outdated. i downloaded the updates (2.0.1 for pages and 3.0.1 for keynote). now both programs don't work.
    upon clicking either icon in finder window, the dock icon appears, bounces a little, then poof disappears as if I never opened it. no menu bar appears on top also. really just the icon for a few seconds.
    what's wrong here??

    When you say older versions, do you mean Pages 1.0.x and Keynote 2.x? If you do, the updates do not work for those versions, you have to buy iWork 06. Cheers!
