Keynote presentations won't open on my computer.

Keynote '09 presentations won't open on my computer. Over the past few days I was prompted several times to update my keynote app and so I did. Now I can't open any presentations and it tells me to download a newer version. When I get to the mac app store to do so there is no update. Nor my app store does it show any recent updates for keynote or pages, which also prompted me to update over the past two days. Please help me open my keynote presentations!

I would try:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Latest Keynote update won't open file. Says I need Keynote update! Why?

I'm working on an urgent Keynote presentation for work (yes, on Sat night!) from my boss's MacBook at home ... or, rather, I'm trying to. Keynote just won't open the Keynote file I created yesterday on a different MacBook (reading from USB key). It says I need the newer version of Keynote in order to open this file. I checked ... the version installed was the latest version, but just for good measure, I've just re-installed the update from the Apple site (with boss's permission, lol). No joy ... still returning the same error message. Insists the file version is newer than the version of Keynote I'm running.
Help, anyone?

You are alternating between the two versions of Pages:
Pages 5 and Pages '09.
Pages '09 can not open Pages 5, and Pages 5 alters/damages Pages '09 files.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09 is in your Applications/iWork folder.

I downloaded my Elements 11 software and resitered it and now it won't open on my computer . . . . do I need to re-install it??

I am working off of Windows 7. My husband restarted the computer and it works fine now. But before you would click on the icon to open the program it would appear as if it were firing up and then just shut down with no message or anything. Not sure but it looks as if it's running ok now! Thanks for responding though!

Software won't open on my computer

I have a macbook with the newest OS. I downloaded the software from the website but it won't open on my computer - it says it doesn't recognize it. I don't want to put that tiny CD in my computer because I have read it doesn't work and I may never get it out again. Any suggestions on how to get the software to sync my phone to my computer to work? Thanks!

1. First check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
2. If that fails, refer to following article to remove SC Info.lib file:

3. If that fails, repair your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

Ipad Air won't open in My Computer

Hi,
My Ipad Air won't open in My Computer on my PC. My Iphone and older Ipad open just fine, but my newer one won't. It shows up fine in Itunes.
I'm trying to get on it to see about copying photos. My PC has, for some reason, converted a bunch of my photos to the .ithmb suffix and they won't open on my PC. This whole episode is baffling. Any help would be appriciated.

Hello BHP11,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with importing photos from your iPad Air.
First, if the AutoPlay dialog box does not open, the following article suggests to check your settings:
Import photos in Windows Vista or Windows 7
Import photos or video from your device to your PC:
Connect your iOS device to your computer. If the AutoPlay window appears, click "Import Pictures and Videos using Windows," then skip to step 4. If the "Import Pictures and Video" dialog appears, skip to step 4.
If the AutoPlay dialog doesn't appear, you might need to check your settings.
iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

If you are still not able to import photos, I recommend continuing with the following article:
iOS: Unable to import photos to computer

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

My documents ending in .cwk won't open on new computer.

I had a mac running OS X 10.4. It ran Appleworks. All my documents are .cwk
My computer crashed and I purchased a new one. I have an external harddrive and was able to pull alot of my stuff off of it. This new computer runs OS X10.8. It won't open my .cwk documents. Can anyone tell me how to get it to open it? Do I need to purchase some program to be able to open my old documents???
Thanks for any help you can provide.

AW should be at version 6.2.9 (it probably is in Tiger).
Just drag WP file onto the Pages icon in the Dock, or a SS file onto the numbers icon. Likewise presentation files onto the Keynote icon.
Or you can right-click on the file and use the "open with" dialogue to choose the relevant application.
Databases are less easy.
You can export AW DB files as ASCII text files which can then be imported into Numbers. Not ideal, but OK for simple lists.
You can then export them as .csv files which can be imported to most third-party database applications.
{Update; since writing this I've been informed that you can simply change the ASCII extension to .csv and import them directly without the intermediate step.
I don't have a means of checking that as I no longer have Bento (hated it).
If you decide to try it, make sure you use a duplicate file before trusting your important data to the method}
For drawing and paint files, Intaglio looks OK, but pricey. You may find others with a bit of searching, but that's the only current app I found that claims to open AW draw and paint files (as distinct from MacPaint and MacDraw).

I downloaded the new InDesign 2014 and now it won't open on my computer. i run on a Windows machine. Has anyone had this happen?

I really just need to know how to get it to open. I have created files in CC that now won't open, saying they were created in a newer version... which they weren't. i thought the remedy would be to download InDesign 2014, but i can't even get it to open on my computer. Any advise is welcomed.

The CC installers often fail to set permissions correctly on the preference folders. Are you getting an error message to that effect?
If so, find the folders -- they're hidden so you need to set Explorer to show hidden files, then see Replace Your Preferences for the locations of the TWO folders you need to fix. Start at the Adobe level and make sure both your user and System have full control, and apply it to subfolders as well.

Updated itunes now it won't open on my computer

I tried to update itunes so I could sync some music I bought on my computer to my phone, because my phone wasn't letting me download it directly. Now iTunes won't open. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it twice, but each time it will not open. Also, when I'm installing it, it tells me I have iTunes currently running, which I don't.

I had this and managed to fix it:
Download iTunes from https://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Open the Terminal
Run "sudo rm -r /Applications/iTunes.app"
Re-install iTunes

Keynote document won't open

I've created a Keynote presentation on one iMac, but when trying to open the presentation on my MacBook Pro it has the following error:
"You need newer versions of OS X and Keynote to open this presentation. Install the latest version of OS X, then download the latest version of Keynote from the Mac App Store"
Unfortunately the App Store tells me that both Keynote 6.2.2 and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 are both up to date.
Look forward to some assistance to hopefully resolve this issue.

You will need to provide some basic information:
what operating sytem are you using?
what version of Keynote are you using?
what versions of Keynote created the files?
what Mac model are you using?

My Itunes won't open on my computer

I have a macbook pro, and for the past two days my itunes won't open. I keep getting an error message stating "The itunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred. (13010)"
I restarted my computer, i uninstalled and reinstalled, but all to no avail. I really don't want to lose my music!!
Can anyone help?
Thanks...

Think of iTunes as a CD player that's broken. Just because you broke your CD player (or replaced it, as reinstalling implies) doesn't mean that you don't still have all of your CDs. They're two different things stored in two different places. The music is all in tact in the iTunes Music folder while iTunes sits broken in the Applications folder.
Mine is broken too. Supposedly deleting the "iTunes Library Genius.itdb" file will fix this problem. It works for most people. Just do a spotlight search for it.

Mac Mail won't open after waking computer up. Have to force quit & restart

Hi there,
My mail won't open 85% of the time unless I force quit and restart my computer. Then, after my computer goes to sleep, I click on the stamp on my dock, and nothing happens. My computer says its still open. I've tried quitting mail and reopening from my Applications folder. I've deleted the icon on the dock and tried to access from Applications, but still, nothing happens, and I have to force quit my computer and restart over and over again to use the mail.
Any one have an idea for me? I have my gmail and another personal email set up as IMAP. Could there be a glitch in the way I set that up? Mail seems to come and go fine, when it's active.
Thanks in advance for your time and any help

Has anyone found a solution to this? I'm having the exact same problem and it really just started a couple days ago.
