Opening iWork documents in windows

Can I open documents created in iWorks on my windows machine at work?
Can I print those documents?
Thanks,
Peter

No, you can't open iWork documents with anything on Windows.
If you export to something that can be opened by Windows applications like .doc and .ppt, then, yes, you can open and print them.
If printing is the most important thing, print to a .pdf and, if you have Acrobat on the Windows PC, you should be able to print it successfully.

Can't open secured documents on windows 7 domain client with mandatory profiles.

While opening certain PDF files we have the problem that the user is presented with a message that he does not have the rights permissions. This happens twice, after that the users gets an empty page with the message the Adobe version might not be up to date. We use Acrobat Pro 10, but this also happens while using Reader 11.0.8. On our windows 2008 terminal services machine this could be fixed by giving the user rights on c:\ to create and remove a file. :O. On windows 7 this doesn't work probably because of UAC. But we've tried every solution to that available on the internet, disabling uac, changing uac options, changing rights on userprofile folders, changing rights on c:\ but to no avail. When using process explorer we can see it wants to create a temp file p328hkl.tmp or something like that on C but it can't and immediattely after is shows the error on screen.
Anyone who also has this problem or solved it? There are no problems with simple self made pdf files/scans but only with certain types of pdf files for which it tries to create a tmp file.
Thanks,
Peter

Hi Brogers,
Thanks for your reaction. We do have AppData redirection in place. We redirect AppData to a share on our data server which works perfectly fine for all other applications. The weird thing is that Reader/Acrobat try to write to C:\ which to my knowledge should not happen, is this maybe a fallback because it can’t write to a different location? Users have full control on their own roaming AppData but not on their local AppData that is made by windows itself while copying the mandatory default profile to C:\.
I might use the wrong term while saying secured documents. I’m talking about a document created by Raet/Youforce a web application for personal administration. The documents can be opened by other viewers than Acrobat/Reader but then only contain the background and not the text. In Acrobat/Reader they do open normally when Acrobat/Reader can create the .tmp file. Otherwise it will not display the file at all. I would attach such a document to see but since it contains certain info I am not allowed to do so.
I hope we can work out a solution for this.

How to open my documents on windows 8?

how to open my documents on windows 8

This question was solved.
View Solution.

There are a couple ways you can do this, here's one:
1. On the Windows 8 Start screen, move your mouse to the bottom left corner of the screen.
2. Right-click in the corner, and a menu should appear. Click File Explorer.
3. The Computer window appears on the Windows desktop. Click the file location from the navigation panel on the left. (Example: If the file you're looking for is in the Documents folder, click Documents, and browse to the desired file.)
I hope this helps. If have further questions please let us know!

You cannot open it on Windows Vista. The only application in the world that opens a Pages document is Pages, and it is Mac OS X only.
Your options:
1. Find a Mac with Pages installed, and save the document as doc or pdf, which you can open on Vista.
or, if that is impossible,
2. Open the files in a texteditor like Notepad.exe on Windows and try to piece text fragments together to get at least part of your original text back. The images should also be available somewhere, even though all formatting is gone.

Open pages document in windows

How can I open a document made on Pages that was sent to me, using a Windows computer?

If you have an iCloud.com account & have been invited to the iWork for iCloud beta, you can open a Pages file in the Pages app in a web browser on a Windows computer.

Is there a way to open pages documents on Windows?

My ibook G4 died recently out of warranty, and I'm now without a way to open all my documents, which I created and saved in the pages format.
Is there a way to open these documents on a Windows XP machine, as that is the only machine I currently have available?

There are certain data you can save copying a Pages document to Windows, but not much. If you copy a Pages document to a Windows machine, you will see that it is in fact a folder. In that folder you will find pictures you have included in the document. You will also find a file called index.xml.gz. You can expand that one on windows - probably with Winzip - and open the xml file in your favourite browser, and then you will see the text you added among quite a lot of garbled text. Formating will be gone.
To some of us Pages' Mac-centric format is very inconvenient, but many users are quite happy with it, as they rarerly need the documents on a Windows machine. And when it happens they see no problem first exporting it to .doc, .pdf or .rtf format.

Unable to open iWork documents on my Mac

Been using documents on iCloud for iWork apps (Pages, Numbers, and KeyNote) on my Mac for a few weeks now and it's been working really well but since last week I'm no longer able to open documents from iCloud. It will save or move documents to iCloud but it won't let me open iCloud documents ocne they're there (Error message; "The document “Document_name.numbers” could not be opened."). Although I do edit these documents in the iOS version of the apps, this erro applies to all documents.
Any ideas?
(I'm running Mountain Lion (10.8) and iWork versions v2.2 on a 15-inch mid-2009 MacBook Pro).

Thank you! This worked for me with one qualification.
I have some very large documents at iCloud and some documents are in folders. I found it necessary to keep the Data and Documents checkbox in System Preferences unchecked for a several seconds because it takes that long for the document and folders of documents to be removed from my computer. I also had to wait several seconds before opening the document and folders at iCloud through Pages for the first time after this fix. The duration of the wait is proportional to the size and the number of the documents. You only have to wait the first time that you open the document or the folder after implementing this fix. The same thing will happen in Keynote and Numbers.
The above wait is brief and no big deal. If I listened very closely, I could hear the hard drive in my iMac running to delete the documents after I unchecked the box in System Preferences. In Pages, there were progess bars that showed the documents being synced. As long as I waited for these things to finish before going to the next step, this solution worked.

Cant open iWork documents on iCloud

Hi guys,
I am running mountain lion 10.8.2, I put a few documents up into iCloud when 10.8 was released and they were working just fine, now cannot open a few numbers & pages documents.
I have 5 pages documents saved in iCloud, 2 docs I can open (the doc preview has the text) and 3 others I cant open (these have the pages icon as the preview) I have found the same issue in numbers.
I have unticked the documents option in the settings, let all the documents delete and then reticked it with no success.
I also went to the iCloud website and tried to download it from there and it says "Document cant be downloaded, please try again"
Tried dragging it onto my desktop from pages and get this “Document name” cannot be converted. Please install a newer version of iWork. I'm on pages 4.2 the latest version according to the app store.
I also logged onto my MBP at home and couldn't open the documents either.
I certainly hope this is fixable!!!!

Any progress on the 'copy your Time Machine backup' version of this issue? I started getting these errors 12 hours into a 24 hour copy… and eventually the copy failed.
Funny, I had the same symptoms, 12 hours into a 24 hour copy, too. (example below)
“D705B42B-AB04-4C16-9887-922B8A083A8E” cannot be converted. Please install a newer version of iWork.
The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items.
The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8062).
What I noticed was that, despite following HT5096 correctly, I was not asked to enter Admin password at the beginning of the copy. I run in Admin all the time, and Disk Utility asked me for Admin password and Finder asked me for Admin password when I unchecked ignore ownership.
I'm VERY interested in why the copy process believes it's CONVERTING these iWork documents. And naturally I'm running what App Store tells me is the latest iWork.
Previously, I'd always just started another backup on new drives… I guess I'll be doing that in future too, as the well meaning HT wasted 12 hours. Sadly, I don't seem to be able to submit feedback on the HT, either.
I posted these comments to a newer discussion, more specific, but not much activity.

Cannot open iwork documents from within the iwork program

I am running OSX Mountain Lion on an imac 3.06 GHz core duo. Everything is uptodate. I have documents from Numbers, Pages and Keynote stored on icloud. I can see them when I go to icloud.com. When I try to open them from within any of the iwork programs, all I can see is greyed out document icons.

Hello
It seems that Pages is coded to save an imported file (which is the case for a .doc one) in the folder from which it was imported.
When the folder belongs to a CD, this can't be done and Pages refuses to import the doc.
I's not a bug, it's a feature.
Delberate or not is an other question.
If this feature is annoying from your point of you, described the problem to the official channel because here we are users trying to help other users.
We are not members of the Pages team.
So, *go to "Provide Numbers Feedback" in the "Pages" menu* and describe what you wish.

Opening Word documents without Windows

I can open some .doc items without having Windows but many won't open. Do I have to break down and buy Windows or am I missing something? I also heard something about an application called Open Office. Does anyone know anything about that?

Downloading and opening iWork Documents in ios

Is there any way or any app(s) to download .doc .page .key .ppt from online on an ipod and open them in the ios versions of pages and keynote? This would be really helpful since downloading them on my computer, then syncing it is a little time consuming. Thanks in advance.

When iCloud launches, you will be able to do this. For now you can use a service such as Dropbox to allow you to open those files on the iPod.

Can't open Office documents from share on Windows 8

We have a problem with a customer that they can't open Office documents(Word,Excel etc.) on Windows 8.1 image on a network share. The error message is just that the document can't open.
The documents are on a sharepoint site and we can open the documents within the site and also we can open the Office documents on a Windows 7 image from the networkshares.
Also can't open the documents if i copy them to the local desktop.
I think there is a group policy for Windows 8 for this but I don't know for sure?
Anybody?

Hi,
As I understand, the issue is that customers can’t open office documents on windows 8.1 on a network share or copying them to the local desktop.
Per my test, I can open documents on windows 8.1 on a network share.
1. By default, Word doesn't trust files in temp directories from your browser. You can add the
network address and local address to the trusted list. From Word 2010/2013: Click File > Word Options > Trust Center->trust center setting->add new location.
2. You can create a shortcut on the desktop using the network address and then open the documents by that way.
3. To narrow down the research scope that you can create a new document library->Download a problematic file (an Excel workbook or a word document) to your local->Upload the local file to the new document library->do the same option to check if
the same situation will occur.
There is a similar case:

Hi Sara Fan,
Thanks for your reply.
I have added the profile to the trusted locations but without success. Also a shortcut is not working. I still can't open any Office document on that location(Error message: location ***.xxxx can't be opened). The problem occurs on every client.
1. Opening Office documents under local administrator account, domain admin account is working fine
2. Re-image the machine is not a solution
4. All locations use the same Windows 8.1 image through SCCM
3. When the user logon to another location(site) it's working fine and they can open Office documents so it seems site-specific
4. The problem is specific from 2 sharepoint shares. We can open office documents from other shares.
5. Can't open Office documents from the library on the sharepoint site(browser), but on another location it's working fine.
Problem only occurs on Windows 8.1 image with domain users. Other locations of this company do not have the problem. Note, every location have their own OU for users/clients.
Any other suggestions?

Hi Amit Bansal,
Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
This forum is for developers discussing developing issues involve Excel application.
According to the description, you got an error when you open the document form SharePoint site.
Based on my understanding, this issue maybe relative to the SharePoint, I would like move it to
SharePoint 2013 - General Discussions and Questions forum.
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.
Thanks for your understanding.

Word 2010 (64-bit on Win7 64-bit) crashes crashes on opening any document by double-click.

Sad to have to open repeat thread, but I'm having the same problem that Maurice Reed was having (that thread is now locked, although I didn't see any solution there).
I have a fresh installation of Windows 7 (64) and Office 2010 (64). Any time I double-click on a document to open it (that is, any time I open a document from Windows Explorer), Word 2010 crashes.
This includes situations where Word 2010 is already running and I open a doc or docx from Windows.
This also happens with NEWLY CREATED documents. I tested this by opening Word and creating and saving a brand new document. Opening that doc (docx) from Windows triggers this crash.
I tried deleting the Normal.dot as was suggested in other threads.
Also tried installing updates and hotfix from Microsoft. No luck.
I'm curious as to why Maurice's thread was locked when there didn't appear to be any resolution to it.
I'm stunned that such a widespread problem would go without a patch, hotfix or resolution for so many months. Am I missing something? I've been researching this for about a month off and on now. Have yet to see an actual fix. On the other hand, I've heard
about this problem from others even before it happened to me.
What's going on up there? Where are Bartley & Jeanne when we need them. ;D
- Dave F.

Hi Dave,
Maurice's thread was locked because he is using Office 2010 Beta, and his post is in the forum for Office Beta, since the Beta is past due, the whole forum is locked.
Let's go back to your question.
Have you installed the Office 2010 Service Pack 1? The service pack fixes many issues, you should try if you haven't.
Download
the Microsoft Office 2010 Service Pack 1 64-bit package now.
I may to metion is that all I know the Office 2010 64-bit will work smoothly with Windows 7 64-bit, cause I'm using it for my daily work.
So, the problem you met with mostly caused by the 3rd-party add-ins/services.
Have you tried to open the document by holding the Ctrl key? This will open the document in safe mode, if you are able to do so, this will help us to narrow down the root cause.
If it will crash even when you start it in safe mode, let's try to run a clean boot to check this issue. In a clean boot, lots of service will be disabled, if we wouldn't get problem in a clean boot, then we can enable the service little by little, then
we can find out which service might cause this issue.
For a detail instruction, you can refer to this kb:

Let me know the result, any questions, feel free to let me know.

Renderer a document with Windows Explorer

Is it possible to renderer a document when I open this document

MS Word ?
Thanks for help.
