IWork apps will not load after system reinstall

I am on the road with my MacBook Pro for the next six weeks and have just had to reinstall OS X. I have recovered my data and library files from an external backup and have managed to reinstate most of the software by copying it across from a (slightly older) backup. Where necessary I am updating the applications.
Needless to say I don't have my iWork installation disks with me and I am experiencing the same problem with all three. When I try to load the apps I get a rather unhelpful error saying that "Files iWork Needs are Missing" with "To restore the missing files, use the iWork Installer to reinstall iWork". Only wish I had the disks. I have a family pack so am reluctant to go out and buy another set of disks, even if I could get them here in my remote location.
I have copied across the application support files in the libraries but, clearly, I have missed something crucial. Does anyone have any idea of where I might find files on the backup disk other than in Application Support?

I'm fond of physical support but this year I decided to buy a keycode.
I thought that, if something fails, I would easily reinstall.
I was afraid of possible drawbacks with the pre-registrated DVD.
How may we solve the problem if the bought DVD become unreadble ?
I'm just wondering if some extras are delivered with the physical item.

  • Tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance

    I tried to reinstall PS CS6 from download, will not load after download and install, need assistance.
    Thank you.

    Thanks for the suggestion - but I eventually tried again and was able to contact via "chat" to someone qualified to help. The problem was that in my existing "bridge" - preference was (I think by default) - checked to startup in background on Login. I did not realize this - because I don't think I set it that way in the first place (maybe I did a few years ago) - and I could not see anything in task manager to suggest that bridge was running an application or any process - but when I learned this - I was successful in installing PS CS6.
    Yes, I'm still not on solid ground re: whether or not I want to change from "owning" the tool or renting it -- what concerns me is that is sounds like regardless of users wishes, Adobe is headed in this direction and will eventually make it financially more feasible to go that route. At the moment I think they are "asking" for everyone to get on their bandwagon, but who knows. They have a powerful set of tools, that they continue to support and advance - and along with those development and support costs, they also would like to make a profit - so I understand if their past marketing model is no longer sufficient.
    Thanks again.

    What version of iOS is the device running?
    Is the issue with specific apps or all apps? 
    What version of iOS do the apps require?  Some, possibly all, may require a newer version of iOS than the device is capable of running.

  • Itunes app will not load on iphone 4s since update

    Since I downloaded newest version ios 7.0.2, on my iphone 4s, the itunes app will not load.  Starts to open up then closes.
    I have tried:
    method to double click home button and swipe to close app
    holding home and power button down to shut down and restart
    wiped phone and reinstalled
    Wish there was way to uninstall the app and reinstall.
    thx

    Try this open your music app and access the store from there first, once done then you can go to the iTunes store app, try it and see if it works

  • HT2693 My Pages App will not open after I recently updated it. I'm afraid to lose all my docs if I delete the App and re-install.

    My Pages App will not open after I recently updated it. I'm afraid to lose all my docs if I delete the App and re-install.

    First of all - you are running the proper iOS in order to use the latest version of Pages - correct? You need iOS 6 now.
    If so ....See if this helps. Maybe Pages will open after you try this.
    Quit the Pages app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or ..... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If that didn't help backup and send your files into iTunes with file sharing.
    You could lose all of your files if you delete and reinstall the app. That is precisely why you should backup your iPad and send your files into iTunes using files sharing on the iPad. Do you backup or use file sharing?
    Backup your iPad, send the files from the iPad into iTunes using file sharing and then delete the app and reinstall it.

    Hello KCC4ME,
    You may try booting your Mac in Safe Boot, as it can resolve many issues that may prevent a successful login.

    If a Safe Boot allows you to successfully log in, you may have issues with one or more login itmes (while the following article is labelled as a Mavericks article, it is viable for earlier versions of the Mac OS, as well).

    Certain apps will not work after ios6 update. Tiger Woods golf will run for about 5 seconds and stop. Have uninstalled/re-installed to no avail.

    My husband had the same problem with some apps after I updated his iPad 2 to iOS 5.  I checked the app store and there were updates for the apps to support the new software.  After updating, all apps work just fine.

  • PE 9 will not load after installing Elements 10

    Installed Elements 10 on Vista 64-bit.  Did not uninstall Elements 9.  Now PE 9 will not load; get window Adobe Premiere Elements.exe - No Disk.  There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive\Harddisk2\DR2.  Tried disk 2 of 3 from package, nothing happens.

    Tried twice, PE9 still locked up both times - I think the intent is to have me try PE10, because that did work!!!

  • After I sync  my apple iphone 3g with microsoft outlook 2007 contacts my apps will not load and start

    I have an Iphone 3G about 5 years old and tried to sync it for the first time with microsoft outlook 2007 on my laptop and completed the sync for my contacts.  After that, when I tried to used any downloaded apps, they will not load and start.  I powered off theiphone and restarted it -- no change.
    When I touch the app, it fills the screen for a split second as if it wants to start, but nothing happens.  This is with all downloaded apps (free or paid for) only.  Everything else works fine.
    Help!
