I tried reinstalling iWork 09 after accidentally deleting it but now it won't open.

I had iWork 09 since I bought my MacBook Pro in 2010.  I have version 10.6.8 right now. I accidentally deleted iWork 09 last week and I tried reinstalling it and each time it says "Installation successful".  When I try to open Pages, an error message comes up that says, "Pages cannot be opened because of a problem." .  I am a college student and everything I have is saved in Pages, therefore I really need to fix this. Help?
this comes up with ther error message.

The problem may be that all of the prior bits of iWork '09 were not deleted before you tried reinstalling. The iWork installers are very finicky. Deleting everything & reinstalling is probably needed. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • I ran an itunes update, but now itunes won't open as it says it hasn't been installed correctly. How do I reinstall it?

    I ran an itunes update, but now itunes won't open as it says it hasn't been installed correctly. How do I reinstall it?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I deleted adobe and now files won't open with preview automatically like they use to. How do I fix this?

    I deleted adobe and now files won't open with preview automatically like they use to. How do I fix this?

    I think you solved my problem! Upon following your advice, I first got a message that I had not allowed a connection to the Tax dept computers, which would prevent the file I need to fill out from being e-filed. I proceeded to then open the file at the top of which was a security banner at which I chose the site as safe. I then filled in the first line of the form which autofilled other lines telling me I was connected with the tax site. In a few days when I have the data I need, I will actually attempt to file the return. If there is a problem, I will send another message. Thanks so much for your assistance!

  • I finally got my iphone out of recovery mode, after 7.1.1 but now it won't accept my Icloud info and states "An error occrured while trying to save the Icloud account?" What do I do????

    I tried updating my iphone 4 to 7.1.1 and it went straight into recovery mode.... I finally got my iphone out of recovery mode, but now it won't accept my Icloud info and states "An error occrured while trying to save the Icloud account?" What do I do????

    Same situation. I installed iOS 8 beta 4 on my iPhone 5 and a few days later my iCloud account disappeared. My contacts and calendar entries are gone.
    My Mac Mini and MacBook do sync as they should with iCloud.
    When I try to log in to iCloud on the iPhone (the username shows "[email protected]" and password shows "required"), I put in my username and password and tap "Sign In", It says "Verifying" at the top and after a while checkmarks appear next to my username and password. Then I get an error message saying "An error occurred while trying to save the iCloud account". If I tap OK the message goes away, leaving my username and password intact (checkmarks are now gone). If I tap "Sign In" again I get a message saying " '[email protected]' is Already Added. This iCloud account has already been added to your iPhone". If I go back to Settings and then go into iCloud again it's not set up and appears as I stated at the beginning of this paragraph.
    Nothing works and the sync does not occur. Contacts are empty and Calendar has no entries.

  • Tried to use Restore to return to pre-Firefox4 but now Firefox won't open and won't uninstall.

    After trying to maneuver the new Firefox 4.0 for a while and giving up, I wanted to go back to the 3.6.1.6 version. I used the Restore feature to try to go back to the pre-Firefox 4.0 dowload. Since then, Firefox won't open. I have tried to uninstall Firefox 3.6.1.6, which is listed in my installed programs in the Control Panel, but it doesn't do anything. At this point I don't know what to do. I want to re-instate the 3.6.1.6 version on my computer. Thanks.

    You're in a bit of a pickle here because you can't use System Restore to revert to 3.6.16. You probably now have version 1.9.2.x which is in part, files which were not removed when you installed FF4
    What you can try and do is use System Resore to undo the last restoration which should take you back to 4.0 again. If that fails, see this article: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_firefox
    If the undo restoration is successful, do the following to revert to 3.6.16
    Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.16] and download it to the desktop. If necessary, download the file with IE8 and choose to save it to your desktop when you see the prompt.
    Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to Mozilla Firefox and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).
    Then reboot and delete the folder called '''Mozilla Firefox''' at this location: ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
    Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.

  • I accidentally uninstalled QuickTime, and now iTunes won't open.What do i do?

    I was uninstalling some programs on my laptop since it has too much. I uninstalled QuickTime, not knowing it was needed to open iTunes. So, now, I downloaded QuickTime so that i can reinstall it. However, it said that it's "not a valid Win32 application." Before that, I tried to open my iTunes, but it said that it needed to be uninstalled and reinstalled. So, i did just that. I saw an old itunes setup in one of my folders. However, it was an old version, so it won't open. So now, as i'm typing this, i'm downloading the latest itunes in hopes of getting it right. What should i do? Can anyone help me?

    You can install it again from mac OS dvd, there's a folder named "optional installs" or "additional installs"with a installer in there, simply pen that installer and select from the list  QuickTime and that's all

  • My aperture program keeps freezing up and my computer battery died but after plugging in and restarting now aperture won't open at all

    Why wont my aperture open ???? Working on a clients project and need it ASAP. pLEASE HELP!!!!

    If you need to reboot after updating then this usually means that files were in use and couldn't be updated.<br />
    A possible candidate is in such cases is security software.
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    You can also try to login as Administrator or possibly run Firefox once as Administrator via the right-click context menu.

  • Why won't Firefox install after I've downloaded the latest version? I can't get it to open. I have it on Mac with OSX system. It worked before the storm killed the power but now it won't open up at all, using the same methods I used before.

    My power was shut off due to a storm. When I fired up my Mac, the Fox was nowhere to be found.

  • I uninstalled and reinstalled iwork 09 on my MacBook Pro.  Now I cannot open the documents I had created.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled iwork 09 on my macBook Pro.  Now it won't open the software or any of the documents I have created.  I uninstalled it because I got Microsoft Office - I was tired of not being compatible with the rest of the world.  I realized after I had uninstalled the iworks that I needed it to open the files.  So I reinstalled it using the CD that I had originally purchased.  It installed with no problem, but will not open.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

    Thank you - I love a simple fix!

  • How can you restore photo stream photos back to Apple TV after accidentally deleting from your iPad

    After accidentally deleting photo stream  photos on my iPad, this deleted photo stream photos on my Apple TV.  How can I restore these photos back to my Apple TV and also to  my iPad?  Suggestions welcomed

    If you have a backup of your iPad prior to the date of deleting your photos, you can find them. Otherwise, you might be able to find them.
    If you do have this backup, then you'll have to restore your iPad to that point.
    If you had a Mac with iPhoto, then when you connected your iPad, iPhoto would store the photos separately from Photostream.
    I despise Photostream. It's turned off everywhere on my system. It is one of the most useless pieces of junk that Apple has foisted on my Mac and iOS. But hey, that's just my opinion.

      Obviously I need to speak another language for you.... AGAIN my intentions were to answer the original post... Obviously more than one person has had this issue... I didn't create the post! If you take the time to read what I have said, I in fact wasn't the one asking the question, I was answering it! It's funny your on an Apple forum stating that information given by APPLE is incorrect.... Mind boggling! When answering a question on a forum, there are those that will disagree with the answers you have provided..SO WHAT! My life goal is not to answer to you or anyone else's satisfaction... Get over it.. You call it splitting hairs, I call it stating my opinion...I would have had to provide a service in order to provide a disservice, to which my opinion is not!  If you don't agree with what I or APPLE has said, shrug and move on....
