Pages (and other iWork apps) does not recognize new words

I don't know for sure whether the problem I'll say is about Pages 5.0 (and iWork, entirely) or about OS X Mavericks. As I'm new in the support community, I would ask to move the question to the right place if it is not already.
About the problem: after upgrading to OS X Mavericks and the new iWork versions, I have noticed one thing. Even though I add new words to Pages' dictionary as I write them, it seems like that makes no difference in a long time. The first insertion and correction are OK, but later, if I type the same new word, it becomes underlined in red, as a clear indication that it is wrong. However, when I go to see the correction options (by either Control-Clicking or Two-Finger-Clicking), no suggestions are shown. And worse, the only possibility (besides copying, cutting...) is to "Unlearn" that word as if it were already known and - presumably - correct.
The same appears to occur in the other iWork applications, but, as I don't do such heavy writing on them, I cannot give a certain opinion on them.
The problem, however, does not affect my productivity, but it is weird to see red marks on correct words. Especially in Engineering or Chemistry terms that are not built-in in those applications.
Just for additional details, I'm using both the system and the iWork applications in Brazilian Portuguese (as I am in Brazil).
Thanks in advance for the help.

Thank you, Tom for the answer.
However, doing as you said showed me two things: the problem does not exist in English, but occurs system-wide (all applications) in Portuguese.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance, again.

IPhoto '11 9.4.2 does not recognize new photos on iPhone 4 iOS 5.1.1

Today when i connected my iPhone 4 the iPhoto app does not recognize new photos from my photo library on my iPhone. Help! Thanx!

Today, I did try something, i changed to a different USB port and connecting cable from my iPhone to my iMac and with iPhoto already open the photos were visible and i was able to download my newest iPhone photos to my iMac. I did this due to the fact that i had this same connectivity problem with the external back up device i use and when i switched that device to a Firewire cable (from a USB) i can now do external backups. Not sure if the issue is with the cable or the USB port, but this worked for me!

Is there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly?

Greetings everybody,
I have run into a peculiar problem with the Safari browser on mobile platforms (IPad, IPod, IPhone) which I hope I can find a solution for in this community.
I just launched a new website where I sell products with certain variations, for example please view this link: http://www.finerribbon.com/aegean-single-face-satin-ribbon.html
On this particular product, the product variants are supposed to work in such a way where:
If you select the value "1/8" from the "Choose Ribbon Width" field
THEN
The only options active and available to choose from in the "Choose Roll Size" field should be: 500 Yds, 20 Yds & Sample Swatch
Now, if we browse to the above link in Safari using a desktop or a laptop, there are no problems at all, but if we browse to the above link using an IPhone or an Ipad, then we have a problem where all the options are available regardless of the values chosen, basically the above functonality does not work.
I was told that there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly, is this true? Can anyone advise me if there is a solution to this problem? I would sincerely apperciate it.
Thank you very much for your time and help!

My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer.

My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer. It has worked great for many days until today.
I’ve tried two different Apple cables.
I’ve tried different USB ports on the computer.
I have rebooted both the Mac and the iPod.
I’ve wiggled the cables and checked for dust in the connectors.
The iPod charges using this same cable connected to wall wart. That’s a good sign.
Both the Mac and iPod seem to work fine separate from each other. They just won’t talk anymore.
Mac mini
1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo
OS 10.4.11
iTunes 9.2.1
iPod Touch 32GB, version 3.1.3 (7E18), model PB533LL

I found this possible solution on another support thread, so I tried it.
turn off iPod
hold Sleep and Home buttons to start it.
When Apple appears, let go of Sleep button, but keep holding Home button.
When screen goes blank, let go of Home button.
Connect cable and check iTunes to see if it has conencted.
This did not work for me.
I then turned off the iPod, restarted the Mac, and restarted the iPod normally.
I connected them with the cable, and it works like normal. :-)

Have you updated iTunes with the absolute latest software? If you have not in a long time, your iPad won't be recognized.

I had to reload my software and now the computer does not recognize my ipod

I had to reload my software due to a virus, and iTunes wouldnt work. Wound up deleting iTunes from the computer and reloading it. It works but lost all my library and the computer now does not recognize my iPod. Like it is synced to another computer, but both are the same as before. I want to restore my iPod library back to the computer and get new music, but nothing seems to work, plus I cant transfer new music to my iPod either. I am so lost.

Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. Usually takes about 10 seconds time. If still problem. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the Firmware.

Try putting $ (a dollar sign) in front of the password.

Apple - please announce some guidance as to when devices running Lion 10.7.2 will automatically update Pages (and other iWork) docs via iCloud so that they appear updated in iOS5 devices?

TS3276 How do I open Microsoft word documents in a Email since Maverick does not recognize MS Word?

How do I open a Microsoft Word cocument in a Email since I upgraded to Maverick. Maverick does not recognize MS Word, Excel and Power Point.

MS Office 2008 and 2011 work fine in Mavericks. What version are you using? You can always use a program such as Open Office to open the docs.

Downloading new safari on my iPad and says my browser does not support new safari.

Just reset my apple ID and password, but iPhone does not recognize it for iCloud or iTunes. Is there a way to be sure these iPhone features use my new Apple ID and password?

Have never been able to use iCloud because my iPhone (v 4) does not recognize my apple ID or password. Any ideas?

If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).
