Pages (5.2) won't quit on 27" iMac with OS 10.9.2. I need to force quit and then reopen. Fortunately the document is saved. Anyone else have this issue?
In summary I purchased a new 27" iMac with Mavrickes, OS 10.9.2. When I try to close a Pages (v5.2) document after saving the document the application freezes and I get the spinning rainbow ball. I then need to Force Quit Pages. When the Pages application is reopened the documents pop back up, with the data saved after the Force Quit, I am able to close the document. Any suggestions?
I deleted Pages and then reinstalled a new downloaded copy of the application and the issue persists.
If you migrated from an older Mac, Pages '08/'09 might still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger. The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch. It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic. Anyone else have this same issue? Any solutions?
The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay. The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs). My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work. So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch. We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger.
One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic. So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal. Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord. Or that I need to purchase an applie charger. We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work.
My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
Any other advice is greatly appreciated. -

Two or three weeks ago, I had a cracked screen replaced on my iPad Mini 2 with retina display (32G). It worked perfectly for 2-3 weeks, so I don't know how relevant the screen repair is. Anyway, the iPad is currently running iOS 8.1.3. I completely reset it because I want to sell it, but recently, the screen display started to have issues. One afternoon I turned it on and the screen was a faint gray with vertical streaks that went away after I turned it off then back on. That night, the screen would stay black when I tried to turn it on. It was a different black to being off, though. When I try to turn it on it changes to a brighter black, if that makes sense. I can see a change in the shade of black, but there's no color or app icons. The sound works even when the screen doesn't. The only way I can get it to turn on properly is if I hold it in my hands/arms for 2-3 minutes. I think the heat from my hands has something to do with it. It's just weird that regular room temperature seems to be too cold. We've had a cold winter in NY this year and my iPad may have spent 1-2 hours in my cold car the day this happened, but I can't say for sure. Has anyone else heard of this issue or does anyone have a solution?
I Also have this problem!!
In my situation, the screen simply started exhibiting the same symptoms a few weeks ago (early February) for no apparent reason. At first I thought the screen was dead, but discovered the heat solution by accident. Now I turn it on and keep it from going to sleep until I go to bed. Thank goodness the battery is still awesome on this thing.
I bought it new and still has the original screen, I keep it at home (never below 62 degrees). Coincidentally, this happened a day or two after the expiration of the warranty!! Any help figuring this one out would be eternally appreciated.

With my ipages program for some reason now when I open a blank document no cursor appears so that I can start typing. anyone else have this issu?
I gather you have Pages '09? Even though you haven't said so. You definitely don't have "ipages".
It sounds like you have opened a blank Layout template, which has nothing on the blank page for you to type into.
Either insert a Textbox or Shape, or create a new document using a Word Processing template, they are listed in the Sidebar.

I have created a second user on my iMac (OSX 10.7.1) and applications won't stay in the dock and my preferences default after restart. Everything works fine with the main user. Anyone else have this problem?
Hi again, ;o)
I found this advice in another thread (here), which you might find helpful...
Unregistering the iMac from .Mac syncing and re-registering it (replacing the computer's information with the .Mac information) resolved the issue.
The .Mac sync information was Reset (i.e. recopied in it's entirety) from the MacBook (the 'good' computer) to .Mac prior to unregistering and re-registering the iMac, so a fresh copy of the sync could be loaded from .Mac to the iMac.
I hope this helps the others who have had this problem.
Regards,

I downloaded a movie to my Air, but it won't sync to my ipad2 and says it's not authorized. It's not a rental. Anyone else have this problem or know how to resolve?
I ended up having a one hour conversation with Apple Support which evolved to handing over control of my screen and then eventually having to use Terminal. I wish I could remember the command but it's probably best I don't.
One thing we looked at right away was the account name used to dowload the movie. Is it the same as the account name you have saved on your iPad. That's easy to check and would be great if that is all that's needed to correct. Good luck.
Here's also an email I got from Support that could solve your problem if it's not as difficult as my issue was.
I would like to inform you that this issue can occur if iOS (your device's operating system) on your device needs to be updated. It can also happen if the computer you're trying to sync from has not been authorized to play purchases you are trying to sync.
I suggest that you first see if updating iOS on your iPad resolves the issue. This article will walk you through the process:
Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If there are still purchases that won't sync to your device after you update its software, I suggest reauthorizing your computer. To do so, follow these steps:
1) Open iTunes.
2) From the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Deauthorize Computer.
3) Enter your account name and password, then click Deauthorize.
4) Now from the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Authorize Computer.
5) Enter your account name and password, then click Authorize.
Once your computer has been authorized, try syncing your device again. If the same issue happens, I suggest reviewing the following articles:

When I am on an Internet site, my iPad will suddenly flash a grey screen and then go back to the home screen where I have to start Safari again and reopen my page. It does it frequently sometimes 3 times within 5 minutes. Anyone else have this trouble? It is driving me crazy!

3 year old iMac 24 running OS 10.7.4. After it has been on for a day or so, it stops going to sleep and becomes very slow. This only happens when Safari is running. Quitting Safari solves the problem. Has anyone else have the same problem? Does not happen on MacBookpro only on iMac.
Hello Albert, see how many of these you can answer...
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts? -

I have recently got pages and have tried to upload my CV (using pages) to certain graduate jobs and it doesn't seem to register them as still asks me to 'select a file'. Does anyone else have this problem?
Menu > File > Export > Word or PDF
Virtually no businesses have Pages to be able to read .pages files.
Definitely not those with PCs, because there is no version of Pages for PCs.

I just purchased an ibook for my mac for the first time and it started with two pages then switched to one with notes and i can't change it back. Anyone else having this problem?
Up the top where the three buttons are (red yellow green) are three images. Click on the third image that looks like a notepad (not the first which is a library book), and that should get rid of 'Notes'. To read using two pages make the window bigger.
