IPad Pages Crashing

Since updating Pages on my iPad everytime I try to use it with iCloud the software crashes.  Any suggestions for fixing this?
Thank you,
Bernadette

Hello
Pages has become unusable on my ipad & iphone since upgrading to IOS7.
It was a fantastic wordprocessor, but now like you it just freezes when it wants too, then suddenly comes back to life.
The only way I can get to use it when it's having one of its turns is to turn off wireless, then it works, so I summise that its trying to update or sync with my other device and just causing it to freeeze or on occasions crash alltogether.
All my documents that were created in Pages, when opened now come up with missing fonts warnings.
Utterly crap now.
Apple is becoming the Microsoft of the computer world, which is awful as I moved from a PC platform for reliability and stability. The GUI in IOS7 looks like a child has drawn it. What are they thinking!!!
Lets hope they sort out this bug as I need a reliable wordprocessor and will have to move platform/application soon if they can't fix this.
cheers

    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

    iCloud Drive will not work on my iPad 3. Pages crashes when I try. Settings resets to off after it crashes. any suggestions?

    From the Ipad manual - actually the same in Ipad, Ipod, Iphone --- the support site listed has frequently asked questions on Icloud drive.
    Set up iCloud Drive
    You can set up iCloud Drive using Setup Assistant when you install iOS 8, or you can set it up later in Settings. iCloud Drive is an upgrade to Documents & Data. When you upgrade to iCloud Drive, your documents are copied to iCloud Drive and become available on your devices using iCloud Drive. You won’t be able to access the documents stored in iCloud Drive on your other devices until they are also upgraded to iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite. For more information about upgrading to iCloud Drive, see support.apple.com/kb/HT6345.
    Set up iCloud Drive. Go to Settings > iCloud > iCloud Drive, turn on iCloud Drive, then follow the onscreen instructions.

  • Pages on iPad keeps crashing

    Recently (might be since the last update?) Pages app on my iPad keeps crashing druing basic operations on tables. It is impossible to work with. My iPad software is up to date. I tried deleting Pages and re-downloading it. The problem persists.
    Also, how stupid is it, that I cannot get in touch with Apple regarding support for their own app which I bought three months ago, just because my iPad warranty has expired? I paid for the app seperatly after all, a long time after I bought my iPad...

    By troubleshooting I've noticed the same issue and found my way to your post. There is a bug with tables. Using tables is an essential function of word processing for many people. This bug is crippling the app near unusable.
    I was about to uninstall and reinstall to see if it fixes the problem, and I thank you for telling the community it does not. It multiplicatively saves everyone time.

  • Pages crashes on IPad 2

    My Pages on iPad 2 crashes every time I click on picture is or insert pictures. I tried rebooting the iPad MANY times but still not working. Help! I paid $10 and it's useless.

    I called Apple support. I forced all apps to quit, uninstalled the app, restarted my iPad and had same problem. I also took my iPad into the store where I got it. They came to the same conclusion: 1) do a back-up to the cloud, 2) delete all settings and data, 3) restore from iCloud--this took several hours to do. Good luck.
    I had just updated about 14 apps when the problem started.

  • Less than two week old iPad Air crashes with youtube/netflix and Safari when loading pages with video (i.e. Buzzfeed with links to youtube and vine). What's up with iPad Air's bugs with videos??

    Week and a half old iPad Air crashes with light usage of youtube, netflix and safari pages with video links to youtube and vine. The consistency of problems with videos has led me to determine that it must be bugs with iPad Air. Anyone else having this problem?
    Details: iPad Air 16gb wifi, have only used about 25% of space and always close all apps before opening another. I also have only had a max of two tabs open on safari of basic internet surfing (i.e. A google search page, or imdb for example). These crashes are annoying as sh......

    I can well imagine that they are.
    I would backup, restore to factory settings, restore from the backup and then try again. If that fails, restore again but do not use the backup - restore as new. If the iPad functions OK as new, then slowly rebuild the iPad adding your apps, music etc, methodically to see if you can pin down what might be causing the problem.
    if all of that fails, it's time to schedule an appointment at an Apple a Store (must be done online) and have them take a look, or of it is lees than two weeks old, just return it for a refund and buy another one.

  • The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed.  How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer?

    The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed.  How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer?  When I try to use Picassa to import them I can only see the 'Camera Roll; folder but I have several other folders with hundreds of pictures in them

    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • Word Document only partially imports into iPad Pages

    When I import pages from word documents my dropbox into iPad Pages only the first page imports. The rest is blank. This does not happen with QuickOffice, but I prefer to use Pages as QuickOffice is prone to crashes! Can anyone help me with this?

    Symptom :
    When embedding a pdf document into a Crystal Report, only the one page shows.
    Reproducing the Issue
    Environment:
    Crystal Reports OLE object
    Cause
    An OLE object only displays the first page.
    Resolution
    Embed multiple objects, one for each page
    Or
    Use a hyperlink to the object instead
    Hope this helps!

  • Pages crash

    Pages crash on my iPad every time I open a precise file. If I open it on my macbook, from Pages or downloaded from icloud.com, all I have is a previous version. Still I can see on the miniature that my work has been uploaded on iCloud. How can I get back that file in the latest version?
    I have lost all my work? Is iCloud that unsafe?
    thanks.

    Had you ever saved it? If not, you might be SOL.

  • Pages crashes when opening document URGENT CONFIDENTIAL!

    I created a pages document in Pages (iPad) and designed a note taking template for counseling - type applications. It contained a table with large rows for note taking.
    As I couldn't duplicate the table (which took up a whole page) I sendt to iTunes & edited in Pages (Mac) - duplicating the table so now 5 tables appeared in the document. I sent back to iPad.
    I duplicated this document a number of times and renamed for a client.
    After two hours of very important and intimate note taking, the app crashed.
    When I try to open this very important document, pages crashes. I can't email it or convert it or anything - it just crashes. It also doesn't show up in iTunes.
    Have I just learned the hard way that iPad / Pages is not a serious business application? I hope not as this document represents a confidentiality risk as well.
    Any help in recovering this document would be very helpful if anyone knows. Also maybe a serious alternative to Apple software?

    I'm having the same problem.  About 5 pages, each with a picture and two tables.  Not that much text and not that many columns or rows.
    If I try to send the document by email (as pages or woed), or copy to iDisk nothing happens and I'm back on the iPad home page.
    Trying to share with iWork.com I get and error and then pages is locked, and I have to use the multi-tasking bar to kill it.
    Very disappointed as local document creation is really useful and quite nice, but is simple documents get corrupted, and can't be recovered then thats quite a large area in where the iPad isn't of use.

  • Why  my iPad 2 crashes after iOS 7? My apps are not being opened and my devices keeps on crashing.

    My iPad 2 crashes every time after I installed iOS 7. It just got crashed 10 times while posting this question. Any of my apps is not being opened and it shows black blank page after I try to open. And system has also become slower. I don't find any way to stop my device from crashing every now and then. iOS 7 is just not working I guess. Please help me to find the solution of CRASHING every time.

    Hey Akshit Gandhi,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPad 2. To completely isolate these issues, it may be best to backup your device and restore as new:

  • Has Pages crash been fixed yet?

    This will probably be umpteenth thread started on the Pages app iPad crash, but I've looked at a bunch and still no progress.
    Can someone please tell me if the tech gurus at Apple have fixed the iPad Pages application so it won't crash when iCloud is turned on?
    Here's what I've done so far:
    Deleted Pages
    Redownloaded Pages for reinstall
    Started Pages with iCloud turned off
    Turned on iCloud with Pages running
    Pages immediately crashes
    TOTAL RESET of iPad
    Initialized as New
    Re-downloaded Pages
    Installed as new
    CRASH
    Deleted all documents and folders on iCloud with my MacBook Pro
    Reinstalled Pages
    CRASH
    I am at my wits end... Android is starting to look pretty good about now.

    Okay... I think I've sorted out the problem. Hopefully this will help someone else.
    First: DO NOT reset your iPad as new. My poor wife lost a lot of data for no good reason.
    Analysis: On the MacBook Pro when saving documents it's not always perfectly clear where the document will be saved. When using any application that saves "documents" it's possible to get them splattered all over the place without knowing that's what you're doing. In the meantime, Pages - on both the mac and the iPad, when set to use icloud, will save documents to iCloud. Combine the saved documents from Pages from two devices with various and sundry other documents from other applications and get the directory structure totally messed up and you have the conditions necessary to cause your iPad to crash when using Pages and icloud.
    THE Answer: Clean up your directory structure on the Mac and make the icloud directory structure the same. Once that's done - on your iPad turn off the icloud syncing feature in settings for all documents and Pages. Then turn off icloud syncing in Pages. Shut down your iPad. Turn your iPad back on, start Pages with all icloud syncing turned off. With Pages running, go to settings and turn on all the icloud syncing features. Make sure Pages is set to use icloud.
    That solved it for us. Basically: Clean up your directory structure and make sure there's no nonsense there.
    I know this isn't very technical - but it worked. Pages no longer crashes.
