Making documents saved with pages 07 work with the new pages app

I have pages 07 that I have used for years on my iMac. I recently got a MacBook Air, and had to put on the new pages app. Now the new pages won't open my documents from pages 07. I am told that I need pages 09. Where do I get Pages 09?

There was no Pages 07 so you have either Pages '06, '08 or '09.
You can still buy iWork '09 from Amazon, quite cheaply:

but if you do have Pages '06 that will not be a solution. Instead export your Pages '06 document to Word .doc then open that in the later Pages.

Why are objects in tables removed when opening a document (created in pages 2009) in the new pages?

I have a problem: Documents I created in Pages 2009, when opened in the new Pages I get "objects in tables were removed".
This makes all my documents useless !
Is there any way to get the objects (images and tables mostly) to load into the tables across all my documents ?

No, there isn't. Use Pages 09 with your old documents and Pages 5.0 for creating new ones. Do you really need Pages 5.0 is the question you need to answer. If not, don't.

Is facing pages back in the new pages update (pages 5.2)

Before I decide on installing the new Pages again I want to make sure that the facing pages feature has beed added back in. Can anyone tell me if this is in pages5.2 now?

No. See this subsequent post.

Passing a request to another page and displaying the new pages URL

I've got a number of pages on my site that communicate with a database. Everything is working well but I am now trying protect myself from Stupid User Errors.
Specifically when a user performs a database operation and then hits the refresh button repeatedly on the page that did the operation. (SQL Inserts are particularly ugly in this situation)
My problem is that both the data handling and the resulting page rely on information in the request object from the original form.
I've tried processing the information on one page and then sending a redirect but this loses the request object. I've also tried using the forward method but it only displays the result page, it doesn't actually send the user there so refreshes will still mess me up.
What I really want is to do all my SQL operations on one page and then send them to a results page that can be refreshed as many times as they like without corrupting my database.
Any ideas?
Pete

The thought occurs to me that if you call an INSERT operation on your database, the database itself will employ deadlocks to prevent someone else (such as a refreshed session) from inserting into the database until the first query is completed.
So one thing you could do is modify your class object to first do a one-tuple SELECT and compare it with your INSERT statement. If the line exists, then abort the INSERT. This is more compute-intensive, but it is about the only way you can guarantee that regardless of the session-tracking technique you use, the desired value will never be inserted twice.
You should double check with your local DBA though - some databases actually do ignore multiple inserts if all of the field values are the same as an existing record, and other databases are tweaked such that updating a record over and over incurs a very minor performance hit such that it's not worth guarding against such a situation.
The only time I would be worried is if you somehow record a timestamp of when the information was actually submitted. And that's fairly easy to fix with Javascript - once the fields are filled in, mark a hidden field. If the fields change subsequently, change the hidden field. If the fields don't change (i.e., person submits over and over), then you keep the original timestamp, the tuple is exactly the same and the database ignores the duplicate INSERT.

How can I get Live TV working on the new Android app

I have FIOS for internet and TV but do not use the Verizon router for WIFI (it is too slow and does not cover enough of my house). I just downloaded the new Android version of the My FIOS app with Live TV, but it will not let me view TV and tells me that I have to be connected to the FIOS router. The router I use for WIFI is connected to the FIOS router via ethernet. The app has asked for and received my Verizon credentials. So why won;t the app let me watch Live TV?

I have the same setup and the same issue.
Looks to me like the app isn't smart enough to make the double hop to the VZ router.
I changed my connection to connect directly to the VZ router and at least it now attempts to connect but still cannot get it to work - probably the now the signal is so bad that it never makes a connection.

EndNote plug-in does not work in the new Pages?

I have EndNote X7 installed as well as the Pages EndNote Plug-in v1.0. It worked fine for Pages before the update. Now, I can see the ' EndNote Citation' in the insert menu, but it is grey and cannot be selected. I have re-installed the Plug-in again, but problem still exists. Any suggestions?

I had Endnote x5 but after realizing mavericks does not support it then i updated it to x6 ( and also x7 to try and find where is the problem). However, i also meet the same problem with Endote x6 / x7 and Pages 5.0! Version 2 supports adding citation for pages BUT; there is no chance to select Bibliography and its predefined citation Styles although endnote has a different (my desired) citation style. (no Sync with papes :S)
An immediate Update Please!

Why are pictures and pages missing from doc created in Pages 09 when I try to open it in the new Pages?

I created a large document earlier this year in Pages 09 ... over 100 pages and it has screen prints, pictures and text boxes ... when I try to open it in the new Pages 5.5.1, all of these pics, text boxes, etc, are missing!!! I can open it in the old Pages, and they are all there, but in the new Pages, half of my document is missing! I want to have it work in the new Pages because what if I upgrade to a new computer ... I will not have access to Pages 09 anymore! Plus, the "Page Layout" option is missing in Pages 5.5.1 - what was Apple thinking with this update? Please help!

Bean doesn't do layout and is no longer being developed.
MsOffice or LibreOffice [free] are alternatives but not at the moment 100% solutions.
MsOffice has most of the features in a clumsier fashion in most cases but is a bit of a kludge on the Mac.
LibreOffice has a rather rough user interface and still lacks Pages '09 features.
Really we are in Limbo until we get something else completely.
For office work, I suggest LibreOffice or NisusWriter. Just so you can still get at it in the future.
I have been warning about this inevitability for years. Hasn't made me popular.

In the new Pages, how does one send an image to the background (and make it selectable)?

After downloading the update I can't get the new photos app to appear in my photo browser when trying to add a photo in excel.

After I downloaded the new update the new photo app will not appear in my photo browser list when I try to insert a picture in my excel document. How can I add the new photo app to my browser list?

After the latest update to IPhoto 9.12 my pictures folder has changed to a package... How can I change Pictures back to a folder instead of a package?
If Preview and Mail’s media browser don’t work, Gary, can you export all the pictures from the new iPhoto package back to folders and use an earlier copy of iPhoto such as 8.1.2?
I have both versions on my system so it may be the Mail and Preview media browsers are not accessing the new iPhoto package. I thought they were the new version but maybe not; I see a single iPhoto Library icon and when I control-click on it it offers to show the package contents...

I am trying to save a document with the new pages and it will only save as a zip file any ideas on how to change this?

I am trying to save a document with the new Pages and it is only saving as a ZIP file anyone know how to fix this or choose a different file type?

Take a look at the FileSelector
First make sure the FileSelector is expanded so you can see the directory and sidebar. That's what the little disclosure triangle up by the filename is for. Once the FS has been expanded to look like the above picture, look to see what subdirectory has been selected. Use the SideBar to select an appropriate one.

Can I rotate mark ups created with Adobe X on the background page of a PDF document?

Can I rotate mark ups created with Adobe X on the background page of a PDF document?

Thank you for taking the time to reply.
I tried both ways and neither works. It gives me a prompt box that I have to click "next" for every page but after going thru all pages, nothing is sent to the printer.
Also, all directions I've read indicate it will print to the default printer. If my default printer is on a network, will that cause problems....
and...
should I be getting a prompt box on every page? I thought all this would happen behind the scenes and not force me to interact with every page.

Open Word docs with the new Pages?

Pages does not open. I had the new one installed but apparently had the old one still up. How can I open Word docs with the new Pages?

Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5.1 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

"New Document" button on ribbon not working in the "Master Page Gallery" in Internet Explorer 10 & 11

I'm trying to add a "JavaScript Display Template" to my "Master Page Gallery" but when I click on the "New Document" button and select "JavaScript Display Template" it opens the "Add a master page" dialog
and prompts me to upload a file. I've ran into this problem with "Compatibility View" set to both "On" or "Off". I'm able to upload files but I can't get the new forms to show up.
This happens on the root site collection site. For subsites, the "New Document" button is completely grayed out.
FYI - I am a site collection admin and in the "Owners" group for each site.
How can I fix this?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that "New Document" button on ribbon falied to work in the "Master Page Gallery".
In the root site, please make sure you enter all the necessary information when you upload file.
In the other word, you need to make sure the save the “JavaScript Display Template" successfully.
In the subsites, when you click the “Master Page” under Master Page Gallery in the sub site site setting page, the "New Document" button is completely grayed out.
If you want to add the template, you need to active the “SharePoint Server Publishing” feature in the Site sitting->Manage site features.
However, the “Master Page” under Master Page Gallery will become to “Master pages and page layouts”.
If you click the Master pages and page layouts”, you will go to the
Master Page Gallery of the root site, and then you can add Document.
Thank you for your understanding.
Thanks,
Linda Li

Is the new Pages iOS 5 app compatible with 1st gen iPad?

Hello, I should point out that I have upgraded my iPad software to the new iOS 5 version. I just saw in the Apps store since the new Pages update a few days ago, that some people are complaining about incompatibility for the 1st gen iPad. Any truth to that before I purchase?
Thanks!
-Jack

Hello All,
Guess what? Yes indeed the newly updated Pages works perfectly with the 1st gen iPad like what I've got. And documents do, in fact, work in either portrait or landscape mode automatcially as you turn your iPad. Apparently, you should first update to the new iOS5 before you install the new Pages.
Thought I'd throw that out,
-Jack
P.S. Pages is fantastic on the iPad and especially when it's hooked up with the Apple wireless keyboard.
