Idisk documents and ipad

So... I have a mobileme account which I use as a central storage and access place for many documents... I routinely access these on my mac, iphone and now ipad.
I have two functionality questions I'm hoping there are solutions to:
1. Is there a away to access and use my idisk documents within pages on the ipad (i know i can access my idisk on my ipad but can not get pages to open the document up)
2. Is there a way to save pages to my idisk so that I can access them remotely from wherever i am? I know I can use the iwork public beta, but that seems like i am using two different things for the same reasons (mobile me/iwork.com)

I was pointed to the iDisk app in another thread, but it is just a Baisc sharing aid. What I would really like to be able to do is file share between my iDisk and iWork.com accounts directly. It's a shame the Apple cloud computing experience isn't a more integrated one.
I agree with you about the iPad iWork apps. They are very rough if you need to use advanced MS Office features, for example endnoting. It is though alright for making a rough draft of something on the fly, but you'd still need to put advanced features in using a compatible computer and MS office if doing things like lecture notes.
Important to balance with the criticsm that the product has just been released, but I think Apple could substantial ly improve both their cloud computing and support or preserve advanced Office features in apps like Pages better

Documents and iPad

I cannot open my files saved to "Documents" app, it will not connect ot iCloud, and iCloud storag shows the documents but I cannot open them. How do i connect "Documents" app to iCloud? When I turn iCloud on, it automatically disconnects.

Wiki Documents and iPad

Hello all,
I am trying to work with Wiki pages that reference uploaded PDF Documents, where my Wiki server is the OSX Wiki Server hosted on Mountain Lion Server.
On all client platforms, when I follow a link to the Document, I get an html page with a preview image of the document; that page behaves a little diferently depending on the client used.
On OSX Safari I get a download button that immediately pulls a copy of the PDF to the Mac's Downloads folder.
On OSX Safari clicking the preview image opens a preview pop-up that also allows for saving of the PDF.
On iPhone Safari tapping the download button opens the PDF in Safari, which contains an "Open in iBooks" button.
On iPhone Safari tapping the preview image, opens a (buggy) pop-up preview.
On iPad Safari there IS NO download button
On iPad Safari tapping the preview image DOES NOTHING
Since the PDF's can be downloaded to the iPhone, I'm assuming this is a misconfiguration of the ipad version of the wiki pages. I would like to be able to pull PDF's from the wiki to the iPad's iBooks. Does any one have an idea how to correct this?
Thanks,
Joe

I have a workaround in the meantime. But it is a non-Apple solution.
Download Google Chrome to the iPad. Browse the wiki, and tell it to "Request Desktop site." The download arrow will appear, which gives a result similar to the iPhone experience.

I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my documents

I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

My Pages app for iPad tells me I can't open a document and even iCloud won't let me download it to my Mac, how can I recover my document?

I really don't know what happened to Pages. First I was using the app, working on a document and everything was fine. I updated it a couple of times and there was no problem. Then, when I tried to open it once more snd continue to work with it, a message appeared telling me that the document had been modified in other iPad. Usually this would make sense but not this time because this file was only used on my iPad. So I chose to keep the document version created on my iPad and **** got loose since then. The document could't open, every time I tried, a message told me "The file cannot be open", so I read A LOT of what to do in this horrible case and tried to open it via iTunes but the option withbthe little arrow that usually works for send the file via e-mail, or to dropbox, or to print appear like I can't use it for anything so most of my options and hopes died. Then on a Mac I tried to dowñoad the file to see if there I could open it or at least change the file code from .pages to .zip and then unzip it but I can't even dowload it form iCloud so you see, I'm desperate. I need help, please! The document is very very important so could you tell me how can I recover it?

Having the same issue, can someone please enlighten us?

Pages crashes when opening any document on iPad 3 Latest version. I tried everything I could find on the net and finally deleted Pages from my device and reinstalled it. Still when I try to create a new document or open a document it just crashes out.

Try this:
Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???

That is Pages for iPad v2.0, which Pages '09 v4.3 can't read.
You need to either stick with the older version of Pages on the iPad or get Pages 5 for the Mac which is only available if you are running OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
Unfortunately that is not the end of your woes because Apple has made iCloud convert the files to Pages 5 now, and Pages 5 has over 90 features deleted on top of doing a shocking job of converting older Pages files.

Documents not syncing between iPhone and iPad

I am encountering the most strange difficulty with iCloud, particularly Documents in the Cloud and the syncing of Numbers and Pages documents between iPad and iPhone. I do not use Keynote.
I will try and describe the problem in as much detail as possible and explain everything I have tried to do.
My goal is for documents I create on iPad to sync to iPhone, and vice versa, with changes appearing on both, and on iCloud.com. To clarify I'm not involving the Mac in anyway, I am aware this is a current limitation of Documents in the Cloud. Unless I'm missing something, what I want to do is what is advertised.
- I am running the latest version of iOS on both iPad and iPhone.
- I have the latest versions of Keynote and Pages on both.
- I am logged in to iCloud on both iPad and iPhone with the same account
- iCloud is working fine for all other purposes (Bookmark sync, PhotoStream etc)
- Documents and Data is switched on, as is the option for Using Cellular Data
- Use iCloud is set to ON under Pages and Keynote preferences
- The arrow indicating a cloud document is on every document on both iPad and iPhone's icon, in the top right of each icon
- In iCloud -> Storage & Backup -> Manage Storage -> Documents & Data -> Numbers it displays all the expected documents.
The current behaviour appears to be that I create a document on either device, and the document is PARTIALLY uploaded to iCloud. That is, it appears on iCloud.com under iWork, but when I click on any file it either says "Upload failed" or "Waiting" for each file.
If I try and delete a document on iWork.com, it crashes the web app and does not delete the documents.
Things I have tried to resolve:
- Uninstalling and reinstalling Numbers and Pages on both devices
- Soft resetting both devices
- Disabling and re enabling Documents in the Cloud on both devices
- Disabling and re enabling iCloud toggle in the individual app preferences on both devices
- Deleting and readding iCloud account on both devices
- A full restore then restoring from iCloud backup on both devices (yes, I actually did that)
- A combination of the above in various sequence orders, none of which made any difference
More information... one solution on the web pointed to the problem involving a duplicate account which could be deleted from the Mail settings, however I only have one configured account - my iCloud account. Just in case it matters, my iCloud email is an @mac.com address.
I think I have covered everything. Any help would be appreciated since Apple themselves seemed pretty stumped on the phone, suggesting another restore, or setting the phone and iPad up as brand new devices. I'd really rather not until I've exhausted every possible outcome.
Any help massively appreciated!!!

How did you get this fixed? I have the same issue!!

I've become increasingly frustrated with the ipad adobe app. I've subscribed to be able to convert my pdf files into word documents and it has yet to work I've paid for a service that does not work which in turn makes me a disgruntled customer to say the least very disappointed with such horrible service

Which service did you subscribe to? Adobe PDF Pack?
Once I know the service that you subscribed to, I can move this post to the right forum so that you can get in touch with the folks who can assist you.

In adobe reader app on iPad, I have a PDF document that added notes and comments to. Once I left the document and returned to it, the notes and comments were gone. Where are they? I clicked "save" and "done" buttons after I entered text.

The application auto-saves your input when you close the document. If you left the document, as you state, the notes/comments should have been saved and should have been visible the next time you opened the document with the Mobile Reader (note that if you are opening the document with another app such as Apple's built in PDF Viewer, things like notes/comments may not be visible). Also note that if you are doing an Open In... from another app (like Dropbox), the version of the document in Dropbox does not update; only the version of the document in the Mobile Reader is updated.
Would it be possible to send a video of the problem you are encountering to [email protected] so that we can try to help?

How do I download in Safari and read pdf documents on ipad?

Have brand new iPad and want to download a pdf document using Safari as browser and read on the iPad. I have Adobe Reader app and Files app. iCloud is enabled. Reading List only shows download page. I can download this document quickly on my Laptop. How can I access and read the document on my iPad without sending it to myself?

Tap on the pdf document in order to open it, When you have the PDF file open on the screen - tap anywhere on the open document and an arrow will apper in the upper right corner of the screen - tap that arrow and a window will popup for Open In options. Select Open In Adobe Reader and the PDF will open in Adobe Reader and it will be saved in that app.

If you are referring to the "Documents" and "Downloads" folder in OSX, I suggest using https://www.dropbox.com

Document and data on ipad

iMac has document and data.Where is it on iPad?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Documents & Data storesz your iWork documents, you'll find them in Pages, numbers or Keynote. Several other apps also use documents & data, if you use any of these apps, you'll find that data when you open those apps.
To see exactly what is using documents and data, look at system preferences > iCloud > manage.

I am having the same problem I think. With mobileme you simply copy documents to the idisk folder and then synch. I cannot seem to sink that folder anymore. Any idea as to how I can simply copy folders to icloud and then access the MS Word and PDF file

Apple never bopthered to explain that this would happen
Your iDisk is still accessible after moving to iCloud in exactly the same way as before. Nothing is deleted until June 30th 2012.
, so I could easily have lost ALL of the files I kept on iDisk.
No, you couldn't. Firstly, nothing was deleted from your iDisk. Secondly, any files stored on your iDisk should never be your only copy. Even if your iDisk spontaneously combusted, you should keep local backups elsewhere.
Does Apple WANT people to move their storage elsewhere and stop paying Apple for it?
Yes. Apple doesn't provide such a service anymore, nor are you paying them for it.
Apple has made no effort to suggest remedies for the problem it has given iDisk users
They've provided instructions on how to download your files from your iDisk. What you do with them after that is your choice.
