Is Pages 5.1 backward compatible?

I have been using iCloud and downloaded a document only to find out the version (09) on my Macbook Pro won't read it. Is this something that is going to get fixed? if not, I'd never dream of upgrading.

You need the latest version of iWork/Pages which only runs on OS X 10.9.x (Mavericks).

How backwards compatible are PDF Porfolios, exactly?

I can't find any definitive info in online help, Padova's Bible, or elsewhere on how backwards-compatible PDF portfolios are. Hoping to get some help here.
I know that they can be opened in Reader 8 (as a package), can they be opened in Reader 4, 5, 6, or 7? (none of which I still have installed here). In other words, if I send out a PDF Portfolio "blind" ... have no idea what version of Reader the recipient might have ... what's the worst scenario? I could give the recipient a heads-up in the email carrying the attachment, if I knew.
What does a Reader 4, 5, 6, or 7 user see when they (try to) open the portfolio? Does anyone know?
I sent a portfolio containing a dozen PDFs and a ZIP to a new vendor of mine a couple days ago. No flash files or anything. I emailed her last night to make sure she got the files, she just sent me this:
>I got a file. I've been unable to open it yet. I had to download some software, and then I had to see clients, so I don't know what's in the file yet.
>I'll let you know at end today if I have problems. Unfortunately, I'm i the field most of the day today, and was all day yesterday as well.
And this is a savvy Mac user. (Not a designer though.) Other people I may send this to may not be so motivated, or even have the right user privileges, to download and install software ... I'm guessing she's trying to download Reader 9.
Thanks for any help,
AM

Hi Richard, Anne-Marie,
You've probably worked out how to replace the rather loud and bullish 'Upgrade to 9 ...' screen in an Acro9 Portfolio opened in Acrobat 7 Reader. I think Anne-Marie certainly has.
I'm using Acro 9 (trial version currently) and I think most of my users have Reader 7 but, as with Anne-Marie, I certainly would not want to make them feel they have to upgrade just to access my docs.
For anyone interested, this is how I've worked it out so far:
1. Create an alternative cover page and PDF it.
- Note where you've put it.
2. In Acrobat 9, open your portfolio.
3. On the View menu, select Portfolio and then choose Cover Page.
4. On the vertical Icon bar (left column, 3 buttons on my set up), click Pages icon(topmost).
5. Right click the thumbnail of the page to be replaced and select Replace pages.
6. Select the page you created at step 1 above and click Select.
7. To go ahead, select OK and then, Yes.
8. On the File menu, select Save Portfolio.
9. Close Acro9 and open up the portfolio in reader 7.
All the best, regards
Matt

Are the "edge_includes/edge.x.x.x.min.js" files backwards compatible?

I have a case, where I include multiple animations on the same page. The issue is, that some of the animations are built with current version of Animate 1.5 and others with older versions.
Can I correct the includes in xxx_edgePreload.js of older animations to the current version of edge.1.5.0.min.js instead of edge.1.0.0.min.js?
I tested this replacement with a couple of older animations and everything seems to work just fine.
So my question is:
Are the edge.x.x.x.min.js files backwards compatible? Is it safe to assume, that older animations will work with newer edge include files or was I just lucky with my test examples?

Hi, Elaine
I have tried loading both 1.0.0 and 1.5.0 runtimes on the same page before I posted the question here. And it usually fails. I say usually, because in some rare cases it kind of works, but not exactly as expected. Animations don't animate as they should or mouse events don't work as they should. Also JS console is swarming with warnings (even more than usually)
On other cases when the animations don't even start, there is some fatal error in the javascript. Different error, depending on the animations and the order I include them in the javascript. After observing the stack trace where the error happened I noticed, that in that single stack there were function calls from 1.0.0 and 1.5.0 - jumping from one version to another. And the error was always connected somehow with "window.[some_property]".
With all the above information on the table I can only assume that there comes to name clashes and polluting of "window" instance. Given the runtimes are obfuscated, debugging is practically impossible and even out of the scope of my problem solving here I think.
Of course I allow the possibility that I'm doing something wrong. So Elaine if you could provide me with a working example I would appreciate that and I would gladly explore it.
Best regards.

R7770-PMD1GD5 - Is it backwards compatible with PCIe x16 1.0a or 1.1?

Hello, does anyone know if the MSI R7770-PMD1GD5 is backwards compatible with the older PCIe 1.0a and 1.1?
I know all 3.0 PCie cards are supposed to be backwards compatible but I've read that some of them really aren't.
Thanks in advance.

Are template files backward compatible?

Are template files I (INDT) backward compatible? In other words say CS3 to CS2 or perhaps CS3 to CS1. I know about using INX files but the info out there about template backward compatibility is slim.
Thanks!

There are only two differences between a regular document and a template: Default opening behavior and previews. Regular documents open as originals by default and store a preview only of the first page. Templates open by default as an untitled copy to protect them from accidental overwrites, and will store a preview of every page. You can convert the opeing behavior, but not the preview complement, from one to the other just by changing the file extension.

The Bluetooth low energy protocol is not backward compatible with classic Bluetooth protocol. My iPhone 4s can not find my sonny in-dash player. However my iPhone 3GS does it. Very disappointed with this. Any idea how it can be fixed???

Hello,
You are correct, Blue tooth low engergy, BTLE.(only) devices are not backward compatible with Classic bluetooth and cannot connect.
However the Apple 4S and above have Bluetooth 4.0 support.. Hardware wise it has bothClassic Bluetooth, like the 3GS, as well as Bluetooth Low Energy. There is no good reason why your 4s cannot communicate to your Sony in-dash player using the Classic bluetooth that resides in the 4S.
I know that this does not answer the why it does not work, but it should work. Do you have to somehow re-pair the new phone up to the player? Not knowing the model of the Sony it is hard to investigate.
And I hate to ask but are you sure that the Bluetooth radio is on in the phone?

XCelsius 2008 is not backward compatible with ver 4.5

Post Author: Joseph
CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
I tried opening a project that was done with ver 4.5 but it just said that "Crystal Xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or may have features that cannot be supported by this version of Crystal Xcelsius." So i guess I probably have to recreate the project in the 2008 version to take advantage of the new features available. So I imported the excel datasheet used in the old project to a new project in Xcelsius 2008 and tried recreating the objects from scratch. I had started with an accordion menu and two list boxes and then I decided to export to swf to test. However, the result was disappointing. I could only see the two list boxes but not the accordion menu. There was a message saying "Initializing..." that stayed. Does this mean I have to recreate the excel data from scratch as well?

X2008 is backward compatible with CX4.5. But Jim is correct. There is a bug in X2008 which prevents it from opening some 4.5 models by double-clicking on the filename. They can be opened from the File > Open menu. This only affects opening the model.Due to the many changes between CX4.5 and X2008, the migration of old CX4.5 models is not clean. Differences will be seen. Most are cosmetic affecting only the look of the model. But some tidy up, color changes and re-alignment work must be done. There was no way to gain the benefits of X2008 and still keep CX4.5 models unchanged.Andy

Is pages 3.0.3 compatible with pages 5.2?

Hello,
Is Pages v 5.2 compatible with v3.0.3? I have scores of documents written in Pages v3.0.3 that I would like to open in Pages v 5.2, but cannot. The documents were composed on a 2008 iMac (which died) and transferred to a 2013 MacBook Air running Mavericks. When I try to open the documents from version 3.o.3 in version 5.2, I get an error message telling me that the document is too old. Thanks

Pages v5+ (including v5.2) no longer open Pages ’08 documents. Pages ’09 v4.3 is the last version that enables you to open these documents, though Pages ’08 and Pages ’09 will work if installed on Mavericks.
Without either of the earlier Pages applications installed, you will have no way to open your older documents and export to MS Word (.doc) format, which is compatible with Pages v5.2. Also, Pages v5+ no longer supports RTF.
Pages ’08 v3.0.3 is the version required to work on Mavericks. If you have that on installation media, you are good to go, and if not, Pages ’09 is available on E-bay. You will find that Pages v5.2 has far fewer features and functionality than present in either Pages ’08 or ’09.

Thunderbolt/Firewire adapter backwards compatible?

So I just bought a new 4TB G-Raid w/ Thunderbolt. Additionally, I bought a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter, so I can connect my Firewire 800 equipped mac to the hard drive. IT DOESN'T WORK . I've read that they only work with a Thunderbolt equipped mac, to a female fw 800 cable. However, the deeper I've dug, I've heard that they are indeed backwards compatible (specifically with the G-tech drives), or that there can be software drivers that can make them backwards compatible. Anyone have any ideas??
Speccs: 2010 mbp 17 inch. 2.53 ghz i5. 8gb RAM.

Yes, I know that my mbp doesn't have a TB port, but I was hoping that the adapter would solve this problem, as it would change the connectivity to FW 800. I realize that is bottlenecking it, but I didn't have much choice because of the harddrive I had to buy. As for the eSata connections, I've never used that method. So I guess I wouldn't really know where to begin in considering that. However, the current drive I have now is:

Thank you for your help! If all else fails, I'm just going to have to travel a bit further to buy a 4tb drive with FW, and return the one I just bought. Hopefully that's not the case....:/

Is pages 11 for iOS compatible with pages 09 on my Mac?

Is pages 11 for iOS compatible with pages 09 on my Mac?

There is no such thing as Pages 11 although the new versions on both the Mac & iOS could be referred to as '13.
Pages '09 cannot open files from the new versions. If you have ugraded to Mavericks you should see an update for Pages in the Mac App Store. Post back if you need help doing that.

Is The iPod Touch Backward Compatible With USB 1.1 Connections?

Hi. I intend to get the iPod Touch soon. But, before I make the leap, I'd like to know whether the iPod Touch is backward compatible with my older USB 1.1 connections. Any help will be appreciated here. Thank you.

Hello Castlegard,
As mentioned, the Minimum System Requirements for the iPod Touch does specify USB 2.0, see the requirements here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1323
While it is theoretically possible to sync over a USB 1.1 connection, your mileage may vary. Consider that USB 1.1 has a transfer rate of 12Mbit/sec, where USB 2.0 is 480Mbit/sec, so USB 2.0 is basically 40x faster. Transferring small files may succeed, but when you try to get iTunes to update or restore an iPod Touch, it will be trying to push a 300MB file (approximately) through a 12Mbit pipe. Trying to do updates or restore via USB 1.1 will often result in iTunes timing out before the process is complete.
If I were to try to sync a 1.5GB movie over a USB 1.1 connection, I could probably go to downtown Sydney and have a nice dinner and attend a concert at the Sydney Opera House and still get back before the sync was complete. BTW, I live in California...
If your computer is a desktop tower, upgrading to USB 2.0 is a relatively inexpensive proposition. If you are not a handy person with a phillips screwdriver or electical devices, most computer dealers or resellers will install for a nominal fee.

Is Compressor 4.1.2 backwards compatible with FCP7?

Last year I transferred FCP7 to my 2013 MBP from my 2008 MBP and for whatever reason Compressor did not migrate over. I tried copying it and moving it but it will not work. So I figured I would buy the new Compressor but I want to check first to see if it's backwards compatible.

Is there any interoperability? No. Can you export self-contained movies from FCP 7 and import them into Compressor/ Of course.
Many experienced FCP editors advise against "transferring" or migrating any of the FCS applications. If you were the purchaser of the Final Cut Studio suite yourself, you should still have the install disks, from which you can easily install C 3.5. That's the recommendation for most reliable performance,

Backward compatible from CC to CS6

To save backward compatible doesn't work in CC. I can't open the file in CS6. Why?

Berna,
It sounds as if we are looking at some strange malfunction.
This is a general list of things you may try when something goes rather wrong; in your case, 1), 2), and 5), would seem less likely; if you like your settings, you may prefer 4) to 3):
It seems that something is seriously wrong. You may try the following (you may have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when it is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer;
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

CC Apps NOT Backward compatible with Master Collection 6.0...WHY NOT?!!!!

This is just horse doodoo. Adobe, you've already got us hooked and paying out the nose, so WHY do I have to save all of my files in an OLDER version (InDesign, for instance) when I'm working on them in Creative Cloud just so I can be able to open them with my MasterCollection6 I paid $3000+ for?
I should NEVER see the message: "Cannot save because file was created with a newer version Creative Cloud..." when I am working with your latest NON-MONTHLY CS6 Master Collection Apps. It is a pain in the a$$ and slows down our workflow.
PLEASE, either give your loyal Master Collection 6 customers updates that make our Apps compatible with Creative Cloud, or start making Creative Cloud Apps backward compatible with our 6.xx version!
Stop trying to hold us hostage with your plans to monthly-revenue everything we already paid thousands for, please!
Sincerely pisT,
Small Business Owner

New features in new software does sometimes mean that new files do not open in old software
Microsoft also does this... the new DOCX documents will not open in the old Word 97 (and, in fact, I had to buy MS Office 2003 because MS Office 97 would not even install and run on Windows 7)
