Pages 09 Version 4.0.3 has stopped importing Word Docs

Until a week or so ago Pages would import Word Docs (.doc) without a problem, it now fails giving a message "the document was created with an unsupported version of Word". As this message appears agains all .doc, created from 2001 (whatever that version was) through 2009 created in Word 7, there appears to be a real problem.
Would best course of action be to trash the application and reinstall?

So, there is really something odd in the shared part of the system.
It may be that something is missing or weird in the set of shared Frameworks items :
If it's that, the only available soluce is to re-install iWork and update it with the late updater.
It may also be a problem with files belonging to the System itself.
Run a tool like the free Onyx available from :
www.titanium.free.fr/index_us.html
and ask it to
repair permissions
clean caches.
It may solve the problem but I can't guarantee. There are so many components in the operating system that it's difficult to guess which is the wrongdoer.

  • Importing Word Docs after recent upgrade

    I have RoboHelp Version 8.0.2.208 and importing Word docs (Word 2003 Pro) had worked perfectly. Recently, I leapt forward a couple versions to Word 2010 Pro and now when I try to import Word docs, I get the "Import Word Document Wizard cannot locate a supported version of Microsoft Word" error message. I get this message whether I try to import .doc or .docx documents.  I also cannot generate a PDF: get a "Cannot find Microsoft Word installed on your system" message.
    Any ideas on how to fix?

    Hello again
    Sorry. There actually is another option, but given the fact you are using an upgraded Word I figured it wasn't worth mentioning. The other option is to reinstall Word 2003 and use it alongside Word 2010. I'm not sure, but Peter Grainge may have info on his site on how to do this.

  • Mac Mail Version 6.0 (1486) has stopped recieving mesages regularly and the search doesn't work

    Mac Mail Version 6.0 (1486) has stopped recieving mesages regularly and the search doesn't work.
    Since installing Mountain Lion, Mail seems to be very unresponsive. I have mac mail running on an iMac (which works fine) and a 2012 MacbookPro which is the one having the issues with the Mail app. Both computers are running on Mountian Lion.
    When I scroll up in Mail for instance, the frame rate drops to about 5 a second.
    When I click on a message it doesn't display it in the preview pane. Which is very annoying!
    But I can get around the issue by double clicking on a message and it opens up the message in a new window.
    When I search for a message, nothing appears in the results. Even if Im searching for something that is defiently there, eg if I type in my name, you'd think some results would come up. But when I click on something else, the results dispaly for about half a second. Bizarre. Is anyone else having this problem?

    what kind of error in browser you are seeing?
    is search service application never starterd or its started but cannot crawl?
    did you see the timer jobs related to search services and what's their status?
    so what about the search results from site collection?
    also make sure this service "SharePoint Search Host Controller Service" started on all servers in the farm.
    Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog
    In the browser I receive the following error:
    The search service app is running, doesn't crawl:
    Yes, I can see the timer jobs related to search services, some of them are Succeded, others are Scheduled.
    The service SharePoint Search Host Controller Service is started in the first server of the farm, but not in the second

  • HT1386 My Iphone has stopped importing new photos to my computer when I connect and does not show a photos option under the device when in itunes.  I don't have any access to the photos except directly through the phone.

    It seems after my latest upgrade that my phone has stopped importing new photos and vids when I link up to my computer.  It always would ask me if I wanted to tag new photos and then would import to computer.  Now it does not and when I am in Itunes the options under my device does not include photos so i can't even import them manually.  Any ideas on what is up?

    iTunes doesn't import photos from your device, in only syncs photos from your computer to your device. 
    You may need to adjust your autoplay settings as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1500 (except to enable digital camera notification, not disable it) in order to restore automatic prompts to import photos.

  • HT6030 Mac Mail 7.1 has stopped importing my POP emails from the Server

    I have suddenly realised (over the past 2 weeks) that Mail has stopped importing my POP emails from the Server, at first I thought it was just that no-one was sendfing me any, however, I created an Account with Thunderbird and suddenly received dozens of them. I've tried many of the "googled" fixes but none seem to work for me....
    Can anyone help me to get my Apple Mail performing correctly please.

    Do a backup.
    Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Containers/com.apple.mail. Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there. 
    Information learned from Linc Davis. leonie also supplied some information.

  • Premiere Elements 13 has stopped importing MOV. files. Quicktime is installed and working

    Premiere Elements 13 has stopped importing MOV. files. Quicktime is installed and working.

    Nowconfused
    I tried to get background information on the video from your camera but all I could find so far is that the camera is probably recording
    1080p (1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 or 30 progressive frames per second. What are you (manually) or the program (automatically) setting as the project
    preset to match the properties of your video source. See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio even if the fields look grayed out.
    How are you importing the files into the Premiere Elements 13 project - with the Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets from a computer
    hard drive location or are you making a USB connection between the camera and computer/Premiere Elements 13 and using Add Media/Video ..../Video Importer? Could you possibly have changed the way you are importing the files into a project?
    Would it be possible for you to send a small sample of one of these .mov files that will no longer import? Maybe in a Dropbox link that you include in a reply?
    Do you have any of the older files still available - the ones that did import at one time? If so, will they still import into a project or do they now not import?
    More later.
    Thanks for the follow ups.

  • Stylesheets and applying to imported Word docs. (RHx5)

    I've been reading a comments about style sheets, importing Word docs and formatting issues (in regards to importing Word docs and pre-determined styles/bullets/numbering).  I also saw that someone was trying to create a css outside of RH and was having issues.  This leads me to a couple of questions.
    1.  When importing Word docs, does RH create a separate css for each doc, or is there an option to not have this occur when performing the import process?
    2.  If I am understanding css', you should only have one per project, if you want all of html pages to appear identical, correct?
    3.  What do you do if you've made the mistake of having several different css' out there, making everything appear funky?  Can you create a new project and import the documents without the css and apply a new css (created in the new project) to all of the html files?  Will this assist in correcting a lot of the spacing, bullet and numbering problems?
    4.  Can I view the default css and edit it?
    I think I have a big problem on my hands.  I was trying to make things easier for SMEs who were designated to write procedures in Word by creating the pre-defined formats.  After reading PG's pages, I sunk into my chair.  I was having the problems he mentioned.  I tried to edit some of the pages in the html editor and appear to have made them worse.  I was trying to simplify the code a little (with what knowledge I currently have with html, which is minimal).  I am fortunate that I only have about 200 documents that could be impacted.  Any comments/suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    1] When importing Word docs, does RH create a separate css for each doc, or is there an option to not have this occur when performing the import process?
    That's the way it is, no option.
    2.  If I am understanding css', you should only have one per project, if you want all of html pages to appear identical, correct?
    With the "if you want them identical" proviso, you would only have one CSS but you don't have to have them all identical. That is your call.
    3.  What do you do if you've made the mistake of having several different css' out there, making everything appear funky?  Can you create a new project and import the documents without the css and apply a new css (created in the new project) to all of the html files?  Will this assist in correcting a lot of the spacing, bullet and numbering problems?
    It's not a mistake but if you want to get out of that situation, you need to do some cleaning up. The first step will be to create a CSS that contains all your existing style names, note I say names. Each of your CSS files will have a variety of styles but let's make it easy for this explanation. One has H1, H2, P and P.Note (a class) while another has One has H1, H2, P and P.Warning (a class). Now let's say you have just two topics, one has CSS_1 and one has CSS_2. The H1, H2 and P styles may be the same or different but assuming they are different, you now want them to be the same so what you want is a CSS with H1, H2, P, P.Note and P.Warning. You could then apply that to both topics and all the content would be displayed as defined in CSS_3. Obviously the real task is bigger but the principals are the same.
    The way I would tackle it is to create a new CSS and copy in the styles from the biggest of your existing CSS files. Then I would look at the others and copy in any styles that are not already in. That gives you all the style names, albeit with the wrong appearance. Then you start working through the styles to get them right. It is not as bad as it sounds. I recommend using Top Style from http://www.bradsoft.com. There's a free version that only opens one CSS at a time but you can see what you are doing with it. The others can be open in Notepad.
    4.  Can I view the default css and edit it?
    Yes.
    I think I have a big problem on my hands.  I was trying to make things easier for SMEs who were designated to write procedures in Word by creating the pre-defined formats.  After reading PG's pages, I sunk into my chair.  I was having the problems he mentioned.  I tried to edit some of the pages in the html editor and appear to have made them worse.  I was trying to simplify the code a little (with what knowledge I currently have with html, which is minimal).  I am fortunate that I only have about 200 documents that could be impacted.  Any comments/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
    Next time you need input from the SMEs, output to one Word template from RH so that they all have the same appearance. Their job is provide content so the styles are irrelevant to them.
    Yes you've got some work but it isn't too massive. Hope this helps.

  • Notes App That Can Import Word Docs and Record Audio

    I have Pages now which you can import Word docs to.
    I have another app that can record audio and take notes, but you can't import documents.
    Is there an app that does both? Import Word docs that I can edit and then also record audio at the same time?
    Thanks!!

    Yes you can use Pages for Word documents and transfer the files as Word documents to iTunes and then to your desktop via file sharing. I use it. Frankly I haven't paid attention to any of the spell check features at all so I can't say for sure that it will work the way that you want it to work.
    From everything that I have read about Pages v Documents to Go, I was under the impression that Docs to Go was the much better choice for all around compatibility with Word files. Actually, Pages has some issues going from Pages on the iPad to Pages on the Mac in terms of compatibility and formatting.

  • Importing Word doc into Previously Existing Project Corrupts Related Topics

    Hi,
    I had a few extra topics that I documented in a Word document
    and imported that document into an existing HTML Help project in
    RoboHelp. After doing this, it used the CSS file called by the new
    folder it added for those new topics (based on the name of the
    imported word doc) and when I look at topics in WYSIWIG, the text
    on them is Design_Time Con. (I used the text only style of related
    topics). When I select the related topic button in WYSIWIG and view
    the popup, the menu choice for properties is deactivated so I can't
    even edit the topics in them. And, when I try to add a new related
    topic, it looks the same "corrupted" way.
    What am I going to do? Is there are project setting that is
    pointing to the wrong directory? What can I do to save my related
    topics. I have over 400 topics all with related topics buttons and
    each has an average of 6-8 related topics listed.

    P.S. I also tried creating a new project and importing the
    htm files into it but it is doing the same thing.
    Here is the code for the Related Topics in one of the topics

  • Need to re-tag some Para styles of imported Word docs

    I'm hoping someone can help. I have a fairly modest-sized help system that is created from imported Word Docs (Office Word 2003). These documents use conventional paragraph styles (Heading 1, Heading 2, etc.).
    In my RoboHelp X5 project, I've created a custom CSS file that I apply to the imported Word docs. After importing any of the docs, some of my paragraph styles become misaligned: for example, my Heading 3 paragraphs are flush with the left margin, rather than indented as they should. When I click inside the mis-aligned paragraph, I see that the paragraph is indeed tagged as Heading 3. At fist I thought it might have been my CSS file style definitions, but they appear to be fine. In fact, all I have to do to correct the paragraph alignment is to reassert the tag (ie From the RB Project window, click the para (the fomating combo box reads Heading 3), reselect (reapply) the style (Heading 3), and then select "Reapply formatting  of the style to the selection" from the Update/Reapply Style dialog. RH then correctly applies the alignment defined for the style in my CSS. Note, this appears only to be an alignment issue; the fonts and other attributes always seem to work on import. Unfortunately, I have to do this hundreds of times because I seem to have several styles that need retagging after import.
    Any ideas? I downloaded a trial copy of RB 8, hoping this was peculiar to X5, but RB8 behaved the same way.  If it's any help, I've pasted the HTML coding for a Heading 3 paragraph, 1) just after import 2) the para after Heading 3 style was reasserted. For some reason RH is "margin left" and "text-indent" attributes.
    1) Immediately after import
    <h3 style=
    "margin-left: 40.3pt; text-indent: -40.3pt;">2.2.1<span style="font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';">     
    </span>Using the Stylus</h3> 
    2) After retagging as heading Heading 3
    <h3>
    2.2.1<span style="font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';">     </span>Using the Stylus</h3>
    Thanks.....rob

    Judging from the excess spacing between the "2.2.1" and the H3 title, I suspect that your Word file has a tab set in there. I believe replacing the tab with one or two spaces should import the file without the indent.
    As to the font (span) tagging, are you sure that your Heading 3 style in Word is the original, default Heading 3, and not some re-styled Heading 3 based on Normal or something else, or a "Heading 3 + Font: 7 pt, Times New Roman", which would indicate inline modification of the style rather than a global replacement of settings for the style? I've never seen RH add span tagging unless it encounters non-standard styles in the base document.
    Select a test .doc file. Before importing it to RH, try these:
    Use Format Painter in Word to manually re-style any non-standard paragraphs.
    Do not attach a .css to the Word file, only to the resulting RH topic.
    Do you see a difference?
    Good luck,
    Leon

  • My 4.1 has stopped importing orf files saying it does not recognise them.What to do?

    My latest photos will not impoort in 4.1 but have imported on 3.6 which i still have. I can see the photos in 3.6 but they are not in the 4.1 catalogue. I have tried a repair, no joy, so would appreciate any help if any body has this problem and knows what to do. Mr.Miike

    Victoria
    Despite allowing me to import them as orf files i have now realised the
    problem has not solved itself, as the dialogue box is again saying it
    cannot find the files again, though i can see both pictures and there is no
    histogram and it also says the metadata has been changed
    there is no file i can find where the pictures are held, such as my
    pictures, and i dont know where else to look
    The bottom line is that Lightroom 4.1 stopped recognizing raw files. 3.6 is
    accepting them as before and there appears to be a glich which is causing a
    conflict.
    I have just taken another photo and it has successfully imported and i will
    now try this a couple of times to see if the glich is repairing itself.
    I will report over the next couple of days

  • Importing Word docs to pages via PC

    Hi - can anybody help me? I would like to use pages to edit Word documents on my ipad. Now this seems to be straightforward from a Mac, but I cannot get it to work from my PC. According to the instructions, you drag and drop (or use import) into i-tunes, then sync. However, i-tunes refuses to accept any Word documents that I try to drag into it (whether ipad is plugged in or not).
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks

    I don't know where you saw anything about using drag-and-drop to import Word documents. To the best of my knowledge, that doesn't work. Here are the steps given in the Help:
    1. Connect your iPad to your computer and open iTunes on your computer. After a moment, your iPad appears under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window.
    2. In iTunes, select the name of your iPad and click Apps.
    3. Scroll to the bottom of the Apps window and select Pages (in the Apps list under File Sharing).
    4. Click Add, and then locate the document you want to import in the “Choose a File: iTunes” window that appears.
    5. Select the file and click Choose.
    (you at this point need to allow your iPad to sync - DS).
    6. Open Pages on your iPad.
    7. In My Documents view, tap (the folder icon).
    8. Tap the name of the document you want to import. The document opens.
    Hope this helps.
