I'm trying to convert my Pages docs to Word docs, but they keep unzipping in Preview as tiffs instead of pdf. What is going on?

I only have MS Word due to work, so I don't have Pages on my new Airbook (my old Powerbook had Pages, and that's where I created most of these documents), and would prefer not to have to install it if at all avoidable. Thanks.
Teri

You can get to the pdf preview inside the Pages document without Pages, but it's a liitle involved. It might be better to try on a copy so you'll have the original to fall back on.
1. In the Finder, rename the Pages file to add ".zip" to the end (somedoc.pages should be renamed to somedoc.pages.zip).
2. Double click the renamed file. The finder will unzip it and produce a second file with the original name.
3. Right click (or Control click) on the new file and select Show Package Contents. A new Finder window will open
4. You'll see a couple files and a Quicklook folder. Inside the Quicklook folder is a file named Preview.pdf; that is the pdf version, which can be opened in Preview. You can copy the text (without its formatting) and maybe some of the images, which should at least help with reconstructing the document in Word.

Up to now, spam could be deleted and then eliminated in trash. It no longer works. Have tried many ways to get rid of these messages but they keep showing up back in spam. Suggestions, please.

I no longer can get rid of spam. I would delete them while in spam; then I would delete them again in trash mode. Recently, the same messages reappear in spam. I've tried deleting them one at a time and in a group but nothing works. Two of the items are from apps and one is from Africa. Are there any other ways to trash spam? Please help!

Try updating the App (and your account details if necessary) on your computer and then sync the updated App to your phone. Then maybe it will be resolved.

Convert older Pages docs to current Pages?

I have older Pages documents on my Mac and when I try to open them, it says "Too old. Save with Pages '09 and try again."
Well, I don't have Pages '09, just the one that came with this MacBook Air (version 5.2)...
Is there any way to upgrade the old Pages docs so they will work with the current version?
Thanks,
Glyn

Since I didn't have Pages 08 on this computer, that did not work. But I did go and download a Trial Version of iWork/Pages here: http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Business/Apple-iWork-06.shtml which was good for 30 days. Opened the Docs, saved them in 09 format and now my up to date Pages can open them.

I have Windows XP and Adobe 9 Reader and need to send a series of large documents to clients as a matter of urgency When I convert 10 pages a MS-Word file to Pdf this results in file of 6.7 MB which can't be emailed. Do I combine them and then copy to JPEG 2000 or do I have to save each page separately which is very time consuming Please advise me how to reduce the size and send 10 pages plus quickly by Adobe without the huge hassles I am enduring

What kind of software do you use for the conversion to pdf? Adobe Reader can't create pdf files.

When I move high quality clips into my timeline in Final Cut Express HD, they look and export low quality. I have tried converting the clips and de-interlacing them, but they always look the same, What is the problem? Thanks so much.

You should check that the Project settings match the clip settings before editing them to the Timeline.
Only newly created Projects will change not existing ones by adjusting the Project settings.
If, for example, you have a Project set to NTSC DV you can only end up in trouble if the clips are PAL 1920 x 1080i.

Just user to user....based on past and current history, Adobe Tech Support is not going to help you with a technical issue which is preventing you from using your purchased serial number for Photoshop Elements. Version 12 is not the current version. And, the Adobe Tech Support is limited even for the current version which is 13. If this matter involves a purchased activated serial number trapped on a crashed computer while you are trying to install on a 3rd computer, then probably Adobe Chat Activation can be of assistance. If that is the case and you want to explore that possibility, then click on the following link
Contact Customer Care
Photoshop Elements
Adobe ID, Signing In
Adobe ID, Sign In, Account Help
Chat Panel
If the above link does not hold its set, then you will need to navigate to the Chat Panel using the above titles as guides.
Are you getting one of those "too many computers with your serial number" messages? Then the above should apply to your situation.
Before the above consider....
a. For Photoshop Elements technical issues please post your question in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum. Somehow your
question got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum.
b. Have you verified your Photoshop Elements serial number at the Adobe web site (http://www.adobe.com) - after signing in with your
Adobe ID and Password, type My Products in the Search field and follow the path to your product in My Products. Click on Adobe
Photoshop Elements 12 in your list to reveal the serial number.
c. Do the install with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

Hi all. I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues. Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem. …without even a re-boot.
Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive. Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab. Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
Open the Users folder.
Open your user folder
Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
Open the Installer Cache folder
In Details view sort on Name
Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco. The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”. Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear. Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
Good luck…
