Opening Pages 2.0 documents with Pages 1.01

I cannot seem to figure out how to open a page on my
work computer with Pages 1.01 that I saved on my home
computer using Pages 2.0. Could there be a possible
integration problem with the two different versions?
Everytime I click "Open File" it says that it cannot
be opened. Help please!?!?
Do you still have Pages 2.0 on your Mac? Even if you still have the trial version of Pages 2.0 which has expired it will allow you to open/view Pages 2.0 documents, but not save them.

I can not open completly a word document with pages - it gets cut at page 116

if I open the same document with Word for mac i can review the 265 pages - but if I opent it wih pages it gets cutted at page 116

There is probably a table at 116 that has cells that spans over more than one page. Pages can't breakt text withina table cell,.Only between rows.
You can try to change the paper size in Page Set Up to something much longer, to being able to the the content

I frequently get an "Unknown Import error" when opening an appleworks WP document with Pages.

I am trying to use Pages to convert Appleworks 6.9 WP documents - but I sometimes get an "unknown import error" dialog when I try to import the file into Pages. What does this mean, and is there any way to get around it. (I have not yet converted to Lion, so I can open the document in AW - but cutting and pasting into pages loses a lot of formatting so I would rather not have to go that route.)

Thanks. I don't actually think this is generally the case, though. (In fact, when I have had AW files that included graphics created by AW they seem to have converted smoothly).
Why can't Apple give an informative message instead of "Unknown Import Error"?

THis is safe for Mac's? Sorry, I have just never heard of this site before.
And there are literally tens of thousands of sites of which I've not heard, too. Not this one.
It's legit. There are lots of links in Apple Support Communities to the LibreOffice web site, as well as others that are legitimate open-source developers of options to buying MS Office, such as NeoOffice and OpenOffice. I have Open Office installed on one of my older Macs that can't run Office 2011 and it is rock-solid.
I've been here too long to start posting bogus urls now.

Open Pages '08 Document with Pages

A client recently emailed me a Pages '08 document and I can't open it with my copy of regular old Pages.
What? I can't open a Pages '08 document with Pages 2.02? Serious? That's just messed up. I mean, I should at least be able to view the document.
And it's not that I don't want to upgrade. I just haven't gotten around to it because Pages works well for me.
Meh.

the macaficionado,
In order to avoid "threadjacking", you should be asking this question in a new posting. Having said that, you can be helped by this link, especially the recommendation of Walt K in that thread:

Will Lion open Appleworks documents with Pages or Numbers as Snow Leopard does?

Will Lion open Appleworks documents with Pages or Numbers like Snow Leopard does? Or do I have to convert all my Appleworks files before installing Lion?

Functionality of Pages and Numbers has little to do with whether it's runnong on Snow Leopard or Lion. Either way, if they open an AppleWorks document in SL, they'll open it in Lion. Of course, you have to understand that certain file types - particularly, AppleWorks databases - cannot be opened with anything other than AppleWorks, so you'll need to convert them with AppleWorks before upgrading to Lion.

Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

I think I know the problem because I've had it myself. I didn't upgrade iWorks on my iPad, but after Apple made changes to iCloud (concurrent with Mavericks) any docs passing through it were modified and made unreadable. Even though, as you say, they were created on my iPad using the previous version of iOS Pages, which I didn't upgrade.
iCloud is the culprit, if your iPad settings had iCloud>Documents & Data enabled, the docs were modified and disabled in the cloud.
I made a further mistake. After I saw this happening, I didn't think to turn off auto updates, and Apple pushed the new version of iOS Pages onto my iPad. The result was that ALL my docs disappeared from the iPad, and from iCloud.com also. I have not been able to recover them.
I've been talking to the Pages engineering team about it. If they come up with an answer, I'll post it here. Meanwhile, get those older files backed up somewhere safe if you can.

I created a document with pages. the documetn was stored in the Cloud. Now I can't open it anymore!

Yesterday I created a document with pages. The documetn was stored in the Cloud. Today I can't open it anymore! According to the help info I need a new version! 'You need a newer version of Pages. You can download a newer version at the Mac App store'

What version of Pages are you using on your Mac. I note you have a mobile device do you use pages there, have you opened the document from there, if so what version of pages are you using on the mobile.
Do you perhaps have both versions of pages on the Mac and are simply trying to open it with the wrong one (the older one)

Am creating document with Pages. pages are in "portrait" orientation, but two charts at end need to be "landscape". changing the orientation for one section changes it for entire doc. can i have different orientations in Pages for different sections?

am creating a document with Pages. all pages using "portrait" orientation, except 2 appendices need to be in "landscape". in Word for Windows it is possible to have different page orientations for different sections of a document. is that possible with Pages. Even when i put the appendices in a different section, changing the page orientation changes it for the entire doc.

Make a separate document the size and orientation you want.
Turn that into a pdf and add it back into the original Pages document or into the pdf from from that document.

How to create a PDF document with page curls using Adobe CS 4?

My goal is to create a PDF document with page curls. I am using Adobe CS 4.
1.      The document was created in Adobe InDesign CS 4 where the page turn (curl) transition was applied.
2.      Then the document was exported to .swf.
3.     The .swf file was imported into   Adobe Acrobat Pro to create a PDF file with flip page or page curl transitions.
These are the problems.
1.      The background is not transparent.
2.      Page dimensions have to be increased at least an inch in width and length so that the full page can show
3.      The command and+   will not only increases the document's screen size. It increases the page margins.

PDF was never designed to support the Flash page curl effect (it didn't exist back then). Anything you try (and you've tried the standard hack) will look like a hack. Personally, I don't think the effort is worth it for an effect that's much overused.

Just opened a new blank document in Pages (iWork 2009). When I try to type a letter (any letter of text) the computer just "dings" and types nothing.

Probably you have opened a blank Layout template which requires a Textbox for you to type into.
Open a blank Word Processing template instead. The two types are listed in the Sidebar of the Template Chooser.

How do i add a second page to a document in Pages 5.2.2

How do I add a second page to a document in Pages 5.2?

Hello jeddi17,
You can insert a page break with the Insert (menu) > Page Break.
Note if your typing overflows the first page, then a new page is automatically created.
Pages for Mac 5.0: Change the flow of text
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15334
Force text to the next line or page
A line break, also called a soft return, starts a new line without starting a new paragraph. A page break moves the next line of text to the top of the next page.
Click where you want the break to occur.
Do one of the following:
For a line break: Press Shift-Return.
For a page break: Click Insert in the toolbar, then choose Page Break.
Take care,
Nubz

My Epson photo 1280 will only print 1/2 of a page from a document in Pages program. First print was fine. Have printed out a Mac templet and printer does same thing. Cleaned heads, checked nozzels etc. Any ideas?

Hello, I have exactly the same problem. I could have written the same text. And I have'nt found solutions. Except, perhaps, change this printer (and quit HP?).
Any suggestions would be really much appreciated.
Thank you for your possible responses.

Open Pages 3 documents with Pages 5?

I'm thinking of updating from Pages 3.x to 5.x.
Is it true one cannot open Pages 3 files with Pages 5?
If so, what is the workaround?

Yes, it's true. The new versions cannot open any iWork '08 or earlier documents or templates. You will get an error saying to open the files in iWork '09 then open them in the new version. I suggest that you buy a retail copy of iWork '09 from a third party such as Amazon or eBay & then update to the new iWork apps in the Mac App Store. You might check this link for the iWork '09 trial. I have no idea if it is still available.
If you’ve already purchased the new iWork apps in Mavericks, you can also use this trick to get Pages 4.3. If you still have access to a Mac running Mountain Lion. It must be Mountain Lion or Lion. Snow Leopard won't work. If the iWork '09 apps are installed, compress them & delete the originals. Launch the Mac App Store & click on the 'install' buttons under the iWork apps. You will get a message that you can't install the new version on this Mac but it will offer to download the previous version for you. Voilá, you have the self-contained apps that you can copy to another Mac.
If you don't want to use iWork '09 to convert the files to a format that the new versions can open you can export them as Microsoft Office documents - Word, Excel, PowerPoint - then open those in the new versions.

Opening Claris Works-documents with Pages 2.0.2

Hi fellow users,
I've got an iMac with OSX 10.5.5 and I'm using Firefox 3.0.1 as my browser right now. Is there any way I could open my old Claris Works -textdocuments with Pages 2.0.2? If not, then do you know a any other way I could open them?

Thank you both Yvan and dwb. But. The problem is that because I don't have the original Apple Works in my hard disk anymore the AppleWorks 6 Update does not work in my case because it only tells: "The default location required for this install could not be found. This install will be cancelled".
What you got is normal. The updater apply to older intalled AppleWorks 6.
If you need to open your documents, you need AppleWorks 6.
So search a bit on the Net to buy one copy.
