IOS app for update to Pages won't open

I just updated Pages for the iPad.  After updating the app, it appeared with a blue dot next to it and the app would not open. I deleted the app and reinstalled a number of times and it still won't open--so I know that's not the solution. Any ideas besides making an appointment with the Genius people?
Thanks.

Perform a "reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
Then test to see if it solved the problem.

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
    Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

    Please elaborate on what exactly you mean by it "won't open".
    Do you try to launch it and get an error message from the Finder (for example, something like "This application is damaged and cannot be launched....")? Does an icon for the application ever appear in the Dock when you try to launch it? Does it start to launch and then immediately crashes (Finder will display an "unexpectedly quit" dialog)? Or does it start to launch and never seems to "finish" launching (in other words, it basically hangs and is unresponsive)?
    If the application crashes, please post the contents of the crash log here.
    Otherwise, if the application seems to be hanging, can you, before attempting to launch it, open the Console.app application (it's in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder), and see if anything is reported when you attempt to launch it? If so, please post it here.

  • Pages won't open after I downloaded some of your updates. HELP

    Pages won't open after I downloaded some Apple Updates

    First, we are all just users like yourself so it's not "your" updates. Which updates have you applied & in what order?
    Quite a few users have had problems. From what I've read of those who have had success, this is what I suggest. It all depends on how you obtained Pages in the first place.
    If you bought Pages from the Mac App Store:
    Delete the Pages.app from your Applications folder. You will need to enter your password to do so.
    Launch Mac App Store  & click on Purchases. You should now see an INSTALL button. Click that, enter your password, if necessary, & you should now have the latest version.
    If you installed Pages from a retail box or purchased a license from the downloaded trial:
    First, you must make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. All three applications must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
    Now, choose Software Update from the Apple menu, from System Preferences or launch the Mac App Store & click Updates. You should get a window similar to this screenshot. Now click the Update button next to iWork 9.2.
    Alternatively, you can download the standalone update here. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563

  • When I enter my user name and password for my e-mail account, the page won't open

    My e-mail account page won't open after I enter my user name and password on the log-in page. I have vcrified with Suddenlink that my user name and password are correct.

    Thanks Peter.
    Partial success in that I have been able to get mails onto the iPad  - however....
    Progress from a previous 'rumage' on problem discussions.    I have succeded in setting up the iPad so that it receives emails from the sky address under 'MAIL' on the iPad.    However trying to open in the 'usual' way   -  safari - then sky  -  then email  -  enter user name and password  -  I get the same result  -  it just returns to the log in menu for sky email with user name and password blank. 
    I had a previous problem with the sky mail ceasing to show recent mails, frozen in time on the iPad.   Somehow by trying some reset instructions I was able to 'unlock' the iPad and all was OK until it 'froze' again.    This time I clearly screwed up attempts to unlock, resulting in not being able to access email accounts via the Sky site !!

    Can the trial version of Director 12 publish iOS app for in-house distribution? What about the purchased version, any limitation on the type of distribution?

  • Create an app for update the time zone info

    Hello,
    I would like to create an app for update the zone info region of the iphone, because all the zone are not updated with the last version of DST (Daylight Saving time), for example in my country (Chile) the zone info file is different beetween the official website (IANA.org) and the current firmware of the iphone.
    My question :
    What is the posibility for an app to modify the content of the zones ? (here : /private/var/stash/usr/share/zoneinfo/)
    it's legal to submit an app with this customization ?
    thank you very much for your help.
    Gilles

    ok !! so it's a technical problem ...
    sorry for the question, i have only an iphone with jailbreak and i can manipulate all the file, I thought there was the same posibility for an official app without rooting.
    thank Michael.

  • Is it possible I can create an iOS app for free???

    Is it possible I can create an iOS app for free??? I don't care what site, I just wanna know and how to add the new app to the App Store.....

    You need to pay a yearly fee of $99 dollars (US) in order to be able to test the apps on your ipod and post to the app store. Other than that creating apps are "free".

  • Export iOS app for Apple Enterprise Program?

    Does anybody know if it is possible to export an iOS app for the Apple Enterprise Program. Deployment options are Ad Hoc or Apple Store and neither of them seem to work for Enterprise apps. Any help getting pointed in the right direction would be appreciated.

    Yes. I can export Distribution certificates and Distrubution provisioning files and Flash will then export the .ipa file without issue. However when I go to install the app it seems to go over to the iPad and then I get a failure notice on the iPad. I am wondering if I am installing it incorrectly or if there is some step I'm missing. I am dragging the .ipa to iTunes to install it. If I export both the cert and the provisioning files as Development files the app goes on the iPad without issue, however it will expire in a couple of months so that is not what I want. I recently found this link http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite/articles/distributing-enterprise-ios-vi ewer-apps.html which leads me to believe I have to distrubute the .ipa differently, however I was hoping someone had seen a similar tutorial for a Flash ipa. Or is this similar (or exactly) what I need to do?
    Thanks so much for the reply.

  • Pages won't open a document created in Pages. Error message "Document can't be opened". Document can't be emailed etc. Pages just hangs.

    I'm new to the IPad. I have a Pages document that won't open. I just get the message "Document can't be opened". If I try to export it by email Pages just hangs while converting the document. If I try to download it to a mac via Cloud, again it just hangs. The document was created in Pages on this iPad.
    Help! Please.c

    I agree with weathertx.
    What in the h*** are they doing?
    I hit the ALL STOP butting on upgrading to Mavericks when stuff started going sideways - this is just the latest.
    Trying to use iWork for the first time - and same issue.  Created a document on my iPad in Pages (I will check for update to pages but there is none indicating I need to in my App store)....and sent that pages file to my Mac Air in DropBox - tried to open "missing XML file" error and when I open the package - there really is NO XML file.  I am not a programmer and should not have to be - to create or complie a missing system file that it needs. 
    Wait a sec.. WORD works but I import a file made in Pages App to Pages and is does not on my Mountian Lion MacAir..?  What?  *pinches self*
    This cannot be fixed by us.  I know that I am making far too many trips to the bug page these days - this is all starting to remind me of days gone buy when I left the PC world for this same reason.  I don't want to be a beta tester.  There is no money in this for me.
    In fact it's the reverse - this is costing me $$.
    This is not very encouraging.
    Pathetic.  Apple should be looking over the fence at this type of thing.  Thier users are the ones that you want to keep, shoudl be your greatest testimonial. 
    This is not a testimonlal in the right direction.

  • Latest version of Pages won't open documents created in previous version.

    Pages won't open documents created before update.

    I got the same issue, here is what it says now: "My document" can’t be opened."
    iOS Mavericks 10.9.2
    Pages 5.1
    What I did to get this issue:
    - My file was created a month ago in Pages 5.1
    - Today, I opened the file normally
    - I clicked "duplicate" in order to make a back up from the current version
    - The loading wheel kept running for a few minutes...Maybe my cache memory too busy?
    - so, I "forced to quit" Pages
    - I try to open my doc again in Pages 5.1, now it's a failure!!
    - Then i tried to open on another Macbook with Pages 5.1 = Failure
    - I updated Mavericks latest updates = Failure to open my doc
    - Try to open in pages 4.3 = It says: "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document..."
    I need a fix asap, it's terribly important to get my document back
