  • Pages '08 will not open .doc documents after upgrading to Mavericks

    Since updating to Mavericks Pages '08 will not open .doc documents even when created with Pages.

    I am unable to check what you have on your Mac so you will have to run your own series of tests to determine exactly where the problem lies.
    Starting with the file extension on the Word files.
    You didn't say, but have you installed Pages 5?
    Is your previous installation of Pages '08 in your Applications/iWork folder?

  • Page documents will not open.

    Suddenly some of my page documents will not open. I get this message: You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. I have the newest version and it has been opening these documents just fine previously

    Sounds like you have both Pages 5 and Pages '09 on your Mac and are alternately opening them.
    When Pages 5 was installed, your iWork '09 software was moved to your Applications/iWork folder.
    Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 .pages files.
    Don't toss Pages '09 however as it has vastly more features and is less buggy than Pages 5.

  • I successfully installed Adobe Digital Edition but the application will not open

    I installed Adobe Digital Edition for Windows on a Windows 7 PC.  It successfully installed, but the application will not open.  I double click on the icon and it gives the borders, but never opens.  I have waited 30 minutes and still nothing.

    It is on Windows 8.

  • Pages simply will not open

    Hi,
    My apologies if this has been covered, but I'm at my wits end with my ipad 2.
    I've updated to iOS7 a month ago and my iMac only yesterday to Mavericks. Now, Pages simply will not open on my iPad. I had no problems with pages until the Maverick upgrade. Until then, everything was hunky dory.
    I have rebooted, restored my iPad 2 and deleted all my pages files from iCloud and still it will not open.
    Pages will open however, once I set the preferences to local, no longer using iCloud on my iPad 2.
    Naturally, this is far from ideal as I tend to finish work on my iPad 2 that I started on my iMac.
    Do you have any idea why it's not working any longer?
    Any help gladly welcome.
    Tarmac.

    Hi JimHdk,
    Thank you for your recent help and advice. I had already tried a soft and hard reset of my ipad, along with a full restore. None of those helped sadly.
    However, I did have some success yesterday.
    I downloaded all the files from icloud to my iMac and then wiped iCloud clean. I connected my iPad to the iMac and then did another fresh restore of IOS7 and it seems to have cured the problem.
    After the restore, I synced with iCloud and as there was nothing on it; it took no time at all. Then I added a file to icloud via the iMac and it appeared on my iPad 20 seconds later. It seems to be all working again, so perhaps it was just persistence on my part?
    Either way, it now works. Try that qtrust and see if it works for you?
    Thanks,
    Tarmak

  • Mail application will not open

    My mail application quit opening a few weeks ago. When I try to open it with the icon on the dock and in the finder the screen just blinks. Even my computer savvy wife cant figure it out. My next stop is the genius bar unless there are some geniuses here. I can still get mail via .mac log in but cannot send links or documents as the OS mail application will not open when I need to send them.
    Any suggestions????

    I would take your OS X installation disc and insert it in the drive, then restart the Mac and hold down the C key until you see the spinning cursor on screen. When it finishes loading, select Disk Utility from the Installer menu and first Repair Disk, then Repair Permissions, then reboot from your HD, eject the OS X disc and try Mail again.
    If that doesn't work, then the best thing in terms of time and effort would be to do an Archive and Install of OS X 10.5, with the Preserve Users and Network Settings option. This will install a new copy of 10.5, while preserving all of your current folders and applications, and moving all the old ones to a folder named Previous System. You can then use Software Update to bring it current to 10.5.3, run Repair Permissions when that's done, then Mail should work normally again. Once you've confirmed that and that all your other programs and files are intact and working, you can delete the Previous System folder.

  • OS 10.6.8 on documents created by Pages 3 will not open They want a Version 4 while my iMac does not install because it needs 4 Pages 10.7. But I can not install 10.7 because my iMac is not Core2 duo ... Funny dilemma!!

    You should be able to Save as: iWork 08, but i don't know how it works on Mountain Lion. On my Snow Leopard the Save as window has a part looking like this
    Or you can send me the document if you are in a hurry and I save it as iwork 08 for you. Click on my blue name and you'll find my address.

  • Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. Any help?

    Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. The reports of the app unexpectedly closing each time, automatically went to Apple, but I am not sure what happens with them then. Does anyone know how to help me with this? We live in a very isolated region so rely on internet help. Thanks

    I also managed to read a few other discussions about Pages and files not being able to open. I actually went to the last back-up and restored the computer from that and everything seemed to work ok again, which is great!...advice from another discussion I think you may have been involved in PeterB. Thanks for the advice...also this advice, as I will make a note of trying to open using the Shift key if it happens again and see what happens...might be an easier first option than restoring from a back-up. Thans heaps for the help!
    I was interested to read some of the other discussions where it was stated that Pages '09 seems to be a better option to use. I have both installed, so I will lkeep this in mind. Thanks heaps!

  • TS3274 When I tap my Facebook app it starts to open but then it goes right back to my home page and will not open. Any suggestions?

  • A Pages document will not open.  Others do, but are slow.  Need this document!

    A Pages document will not open and there is a screen annoucement it will not open.  Other Pages documents do open, but are slow.  The one that will not open now was also very slow.  My last visit to the Apple store the Genius Bar said I needed a new HD.  Is this the final straw and it's time to take it in and let them replace it?  Under warrently.

    Do we know what document won't open?
    Do we also know what version of Pages you are talking about, on what MacBook Pro?
    Something tells me you are not using Mac OSX (10.7), the only thing you have noted.
    If your Mac is running slow, the usual reason is your hard drive is too full. OSX likes 10-15% free space.

  • I recently had my account expire, and need to utilize the trial to finish a project. Even though my account says 'free trial' the applications will not open. How do I get the APP to recognize that I'm in trial and not expired?

    I recently had my account expire, and need to utilize the trial to finish a project. Even though my account says 'free trial' the applications will not open. How do I get the APP to recognize that I'm in trial and not expired?

    I had a year long CC membership that expired at the beginning of the October.
    After realizing that, I attempted to start a free trial of photoshop to work on a project. My Adobe account states that i'm on a trial, but my (Mac) dashboard CC app won't allow me to start the program. I have reinstalled both Creative Cloud and Photoshop CC but still get this message.

  • My classic OS9 applications will not open

    My Classic OS9 applications will not open, and I cannot find the classic OS9 application showing in the preferences window.I tried installing Classic OS9 on a disc I had from another computer but maybe it was the wrong disc

    Here is apple's take on the subject.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1929
    Try this:
    1) on your eMac update the machine to 9.2.2 
      -- ( it needs to be 9.2.2 I think & do not know if you can update to 9.2.2
            on Mac OS X.  I think you can update on X, but not 100% sure. )
    2) get a flash drive
    3) format to flashdrive to Mac OS extended 
      -- ( guess you could use journaled.  )
      -- ( need to perserve resource forks.)
    4) copy the folder
         System Folder
    to the flash drive. 
       -- ( this is the mac os 9 folder.  Only the Max OS X will/may have the 9 on the folder. )
       -- ( do not move it on emac like to the desktop etc. )
    5) copy to your iMac.
    6) Bless classic folder.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1929 for how.
    Let me know how it goes.  Could try it out since I have Classi running in a partition on this machine.

  • Applications Will Not Open

    Many of my applications will not open. After clicking on them, they sometimes bounce before notifying me that the application quit unexpectedly. I can't get iTunes to open at all before it crashes.

    I'm having a very similar problem. A night or two ago I did a system update and since then I can't get Safari, iTunes or my Word to open. I don't know if there are any other applications affected, I don't really care, these are the ones I use practically everyday.
    I did try to look at my activity monitor too since the spinning beachball and Safari closing on me was a common thing, and I did look at the inactive processes, and I did try to quit some of the processes that were under my name, since I could not log into the root user. So I probably messed something up there, but anyway...
    I tried to restart, unplug the AC/remove the battery and hold power for 5 seconds, do the entire create a new account thing, delete the com.apple.safari.plist and no success. I also tried to do the repair permissions thing and it says "Repairing permissions for "Macintosh HD" Error: No valid packages Permissions repair complete.
    Another weird thing is that the clock and airport icons are gone again from my bar. I had to put them back yesterday.
    I know I will probably have to reinstall everything, I tried to do that, but I lost my discs in my move, so I know I will probably have to drive 3 hours to take it to a genius to fix, but I was hoping someone would have some clue or insite as to what I can do to try and fix this situation. I love my mac and my boyfriend is getting one this weekend (converted him from PC), so I don't want him to think they are bad at all!! Thanks.

  • My pages documents will not open?

    My pages documents will not open and I am not happy at all?

    Hi italiancooking,
    This may help. In Finder, right click (or control click) on the document icon and Open With > Preview. If this works, copy the content and paste it into a new blank Pages document.

    Ian.
