I use Numbers on my imac.  Now it tells me I need an update.  It no longer allows me to even see past projects.  Numbers 3.1 was installed on my computer on 1/25/14.  Can anyone help?

A CAUTION
The article linked in YeOldMacFan's post gives the basic information. I would place some emphasis on these statements from the last two paragraphs:
"If you have no further need for the older version of the iWork application or the iWork suite on your Mac, you may delete the the application or the iWork suite by dragging the application or the iWork folder to the trash."
"[Keeping both versions] allows you to maintain consistent versions when collaborating with other people who may not have the latest iWork suite."
Collaboration with other people is not the only reason for keeping both new and old versions of Numbers (or Pages of Keynote) available.
The current versions were developed with the goal of improving compatibility between iOS, OS X and iCloud transferability of files, and many features supported in the '09 versions of these applications are NOT supported (yet) in the new versions. If you need these features for your work, then you still have a need for the older versions.
Any file opened, then saved from the new versions cn no longer be opened in the older version. Unsupported features may be removed on importing he file into the new version. The file may be exported from the new version as a Numbers '09 file, which may then be opened in Numbers '09, but unsupported features removed in the import to Numbers 3 will not be restored in the export.
Use your own judgement as to whether to keep of delete Numbers '09. My choice would be to keep it.
My personal choice has been to delay installing the new versions of Numbers Pages and Keynote until support for more of the 'missing' features has been restored.
Regards,
Barry

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. Happened to me once, about 6 months ago, and a reset got it working again.

  • Moving to a Mac - I'm Ready! - Can you Help?

    I'm getting my new iMac later this week. I'm leaving Windows behind, and I'm trying my best to make sure I don't leave anything important behind and that I make the migration as seemless as possible. So, can anyone assist me in a detailed step-by-step manner? Also, once I'm on the Mac I want to make sure LR is run as optimally as possible. In that regard, can you assist me with the eventual setup.
    Currently, I have LR 2, (not 2.3 as it makes no sense to upgrade before moving). My photos - approx 7500 - reside on my C Drive in a heirarchal folder system, such as . . . My Files > Photos > Personal > Family > Vacations > Europe, etc. There is an identical backup structure on my external 320GB drive.
    Since I won't be dealing with lettered drives, will there still be someplace where I could see the same folder/file structure, on my Mac? My LR catalog backups are saved in my external drive in a folder called Backups (backups from other programs are there as well.) I'm not quite sure where Adobe put my catalog, but I could find it.
    Of course, I want to carry over any tags and keywords I have and all of the metadata for the photos I've edited. What should I do to prepare the move (copy any files to the external, or perhaps a CD?) BTW, should I load the Mac version of LR before I copy the files or after? I'll also have PSE 6 or 7, depending on what Adobe will do for me in terms of going cross platform and reducing my costs. I don't think I'll be using iPhoto at all.
    Once I have everything up and running, what is the best configuration for LR and Time Machine? I intend on using a new 500GB external for the main backup and my current 320 will be for additional backup? I understand that Time Machine does not work well if the backup comes while you're editing. So, I know some people exclude LR from automatic backups. What is an optimum setup for LR with my two external drives? (I think they may be able to be Daisy Chained, or perhaps one a firewire (the 500GB) and one a USB) Along with my setup, what would be the best method of importing? Currently I import to a folder and then once the photos are on my computer I have LR inport them. I don't do a backup yet. I backup after I've culled the photos. Somehow, I don't think that's the best process if I have a reliable backup system like Time Machine and two external drives.
    I hope that's not too much to throw at you, or too mundane, or repetitive. I know there have been similar threads, but I've never seen step by step instructions.
    Thanks,
    Steven

    revert back to Maverick that is what I had to finally do. This was the worst upgrade I have ever seen. Hopefully you have Time Machine backup and can revert back. It was pretty painless except for a few issues. I will wait until Apple gets their stuff together on this upgrade or may never will.

    From this Apple support document: iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the headingBlocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

  • After upgrading to Yosemite I had to upgrade iPhoto and now it says I need to update my photo library or it will be lost...HELP

    After upgrading to Yosemite, I had to upgrade iPhoto.  Now when I try to open iPhoto I get the following message:
    The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version iPhoto.
    Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade.  The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete .
    Question is...how do i upgrade the photo library?

    You can't back up an open iPhoto...
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • I only use Safari but keep getting a message saying I need to update MS Explorer

    How do I stop getting pop-ups saying MS Explorer is out of date?  I only use Safari. The pop-up started a couple of days ago and comes at irregular intervals. It seems to appear only when I visit certain websites, but I am not sure about that.  At any rate, when I leave the pop-up, it kicks me out of the website I was visiting.   I have not downloaded anything as I fear it might be Malware, especially since I've had my IMAC for several years, it is up to date according to the "Check for Updates"  and I have never gotten this pop-up message before.

    Hello again Carolyn,
              I have waited several days now and the problem has not returned!  While cleaning up my Cookie Folder, I deleted  anything I didn't recognize including some caches and that seems to have solved the problem. To be sure, I have not finished cleaning up the cookie folder yet - I only got through the files that began with C.
    Thanks for the link - it pointed me in the right direction. 
    By the way, I never downloaded the so-called Windows Explorer Update and that may be the reason why the problem was fixed.
