Numbers 3.5 won't open saved document in Yosemite

Numbers, having worked for years, has stopped opening a saved document. My backup will open, but any change, or even just a save, creates a "filename' can't be opened' dialogue box. I've deleted the old iWork folder, Numbers Preference files and Reset Permissions, all to no effect… Any help greatly received, it is my business accounts we're talking here…

OK, Numbers 3.5.2 is doing the same thing, save an unchanged document and then it won't re-open… I found a fix, export as a Numbers 9 version, then re-open and save as latest version. Seems to be robust…

IWork '09 Pages test version won't open saved document

Help!
I worked on a Pages (30-days test version) document the whole day, saved all my changes but after I restarted the computer Pages wouldn't re-open it telling me that it can't be read. There are several versions of my file, all with the same name, but the only one I can open is an old version without all today's changes...

Pages and Numbers won't open existing documents.. Any clues?

Hello!
I noticed yesterday that Pages and Numbers won't open existing documents.
I've tried to reinstall software, but no luck.
I've done no changes to my system, other than installing updates that have been made available.
I run iWork '09 on a MacBook Pro 15" Mid 2010, with OSX 10.7.3.
I can view the documents in preview, but I really need them to work as they are work-related.
What to do?

Look at the threads to the right. One of them is this https://discussions.apple.com/message/13147694#13147694 and it might help you

How do I find and open saved documents?

How do I find and open saved documents?

After you convert documents from PDF to Word or Excel with the ExportPDF service, you can find the converted files in whatever folder you saved them to. The default save location for files varies by browser. I would suggest searching your hard drive for the file name either via the Windows SmartSearch or Mac Spotlight.
Please let us know if you have any questions.

Ipad won't open Word documents without .doc appended

My ipad won't open word documents attached to emails that don't have .doc appended, however my iphone does this flawlessly. Is this normal?

Mine won't either. I was wondering if it had something to do with installing the pages app. My attachments with .doc are showing as pages docs.

After clean install Preview and MS Word won't open any documents.

Did a clean install of Mavericks. Restored my files from dropbox. (thousands of pdf and word files, doc. and docx)
Now, preview and MS Word won't open any documents.
Preview fails to open PDF so as MS Word fails to open any doc or docx file. Both crash on launch (not responding).
The only way to open the files is renaming them.
Try to delete the .plist (preview and Word), dont work.
Anyone know how to fix?

Pages, Numbers and Keynote won't open

Trying to use Pages - latest version - on my Mac, but it won't open. Neither will Numbers or Keynote.
Tried to reinstall, but the computer said no go.

Applications that can store documents in iCloud include Preview, TextEdit, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, GarageBand, and some third-party software such as "DayOne," "iA Writer," "MindNode," and perhaps others. If some or all of those applications are suddenly not working well, there may be a problem with iCloud synchronization.
Back up all data.
Open the iCloud preference pane in System Preferences and uncheck the box marked Documents & Data. See whether there's any improvement. If there is, continue.
Hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. From the folder that opens, move this folder to the Desktop:
Mobile Documents (or any other item with a name beginning that way)
and move this folder to the Trash:
Application Support/Ubiquity
Re-enable Documents & Data, log out, log back in, and test. The folders should be recreated automatically. If the issue is resolved, delete the folder you moved to the Desktop.
If you continue to have the same problems, I suggest you contact iCloud Support.

Won't Open Any Documents

Hi all,
I'm pretty new to Illustrator and I'm currently using Illustrator CS6 v16.0.0 x32 on Windows 7. I'm having an issue where it's not letting me open any documents or basically use it... hence the long description:
When I load the program, everything looks okay. But when I go to File --> New (to create a new file, or even use one from a template) the program crashes. I get an error message that says: "Adobe Illustrator has stopped working - A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program." This error has occurred even when opening existing .ai or .pdf files so I can't open anything at the moment.
Originally, v16.0.2 was working and then I installed the v16.0.3 update. I didn't use it for a few days after the update and then I created a new document but it started crashing and not saving. I was able to isolate it to at least changing rectangle colors. For example, I drew a box filled with red and saved the file. Then I drew another box filled with blue on the same artboard and when I went to save the file the program would crash. However, I was able to save when I drew multiple red boxes. But once I put a blue box, it wouldn't work. [I don't recall what the error message was, if there was one, since I now have a different issue where I can't open anything]
I wasn't exactly sure what was causing that so I thought I would uninstall Illustrator and install the v16.0.2 update to it and leave it at that for the moment. So I used the Windows Remove Program and removed Illustrator. I also at some point ran the Adobe Cleanup tool for removing trial versions just to have all my bases covered. I also removed anything else from Adobe that came with Illustrator (like Bridge, Reader, Acrobat, AIR, etc) just in case. Some of those programs probably did not come bundled with Illustrator.
I re-downloaded the files from Adobe (the Akamai Download Manager kept crashing so I had to do the regular download) and then I extracted them and ran it. It initialized the install and everything seemed to install fine, the same way I did it the first time. I put in the serial number, etc and then I was not able to open any documents. I ran the v16.0.2 update and had the same problem.
So then I uninstalled everything again and used the Adobe Download Manager to download the trial version of Illustrator CS6 and was not able to open any documents there either once it was installed. This leads me to believe it may be something specific to my computer or some setting somewhere?
Does anyone have any ideas?

Pages won't open a document created in Pages. Error message "Document can't be opened". Document can't be emailed etc. Pages just hangs.

I'm new to the IPad. I have a Pages document that won't open. I just get the message "Document can't be opened". If I try to export it by email Pages just hangs while converting the document. If I try to download it to a mac via Cloud, again it just hangs. The document was created in Pages on this iPad.
Help! Please.c

I agree with weathertx.
What in the h*** are they doing?
I hit the ALL STOP butting on upgrading to Mavericks when stuff started going sideways - this is just the latest.
Trying to use iWork for the first time - and same issue. Created a document on my iPad in Pages (I will check for update to pages but there is none indicating I need to in my App store)....and sent that pages file to my Mac Air in DropBox - tried to open "missing XML file" error and when I open the package - there really is NO XML file. I am not a programmer and should not have to be - to create or complie a missing system file that it needs.
Wait a sec.. WORD works but I import a file made in Pages App to Pages and is does not on my Mountian Lion MacAir..? What? *pinches self*
This cannot be fixed by us. I know that I am making far too many trips to the bug page these days - this is all starting to remind me of days gone buy when I left the PC world for this same reason. I don't want to be a beta tester. There is no money in this for me.
In fact it's the reverse - this is costing me $$.
This is not very encouraging.
Pathetic. Apple should be looking over the fence at this type of thing. Thier users are the ones that you want to keep, shoudl be your greatest testimonial.
This is not a testimonlal in the right direction.

Pages won't open word documents created in Office for Mac

I'm using system 10.10 with the latest version of Pages. Although I've read that if you right click on a word document you should get the option to open it with Pages, and it should be translated. But I get a message that the document can not be opened. I created it with Microsoft Office for Mac 2004 using Word.
I've been able to email those documents to people who use PC's and they have always been able to open my documents, so why not Pages?

I tried that, but no luck. I also tried copying my Office for Mac 2004 onto my new iMac 12,2 but that didn't work. because those programs won't run in the Yosemite operating system. I see that there is supposed to be a new Office for Mac 2015 version, but nobody seems to know if or when that will be released. I may purchase Officer for Mac 2011, but before that purchase I thought I'd ask Microsoft if the 2011 version would open up Work files created by the 2004 edition. Their support line put me in touch with someone in India who tried to be helpful, but I'm not convinced he really knows the answer. He tried to persuade me to get Open Office, but that's not what I want. I'd like to be able to compose documents on the Mac platform and send them as attachments to emails for people who I know are using PCs. I don't like that extra step you have to do through in Pages to export as a PC document. The same for Excel and Power Point.

Remember size and location when opening saved document (CS5)

Greetings,
It would be nice to have a preference to remember screen rendered document size and location when saved, then the document opens at the last used size and location; I now reposition and resize every time I open my documents, which is often.
Perhaps this feature has not been forgotten or omitted, maybe I just haven't found it yet?
Garrett

"I now reposition and resize every time I open my documents, which is often."
Yeah, you said it... Which means that 100 times a day I curse Adobe for not including such a basic, fundamental capability.
It's hard to believe that they do any testing by real users at all... How could they have missed this? And why haven't they immediately fixed it in a point update?

Preview Application won't open any documents.

My Preview application on my mac book pro (Lion OS X) won't open any pdf or jpeg documents. It just says ' the application Preview can't be opened. -1712'
How can I fix this?

Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library". Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Preview.plist and delete that file. Relaunch Preview.

Keynote, numbers and pages won't open on 10.9.3

I haven't used Keynote, numbers or pages for several months and now they won't open. They start to load but then they stop and disappear off the bottom application bar.

Hello JeffreyK71
The first thing to try is to see if this does the same thing in a new user. Also if you downloaded the apps from the Mac App Store, you can delete the apps and then download them again. Check out the articles for more detailed information on how to resolve the issue

Safari won't open word documents

Recently, Safari won't open any word documents or pdf. Any suggestions? The error message says there are no available programs to open it. Although Pages is installed.
Thanks!

Hi..
Quit Safari.
Go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF browser plugin) to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari. See if that made a difference.
Pages can open PDF files as a standalone, but not within Safari.
