Pages - can't upload documents

I am trying to upload existing WORD, EXCEL & PDFs from my computer into my iPad.  They show up on my iPad but are faded out...and I can't choose them!
I followed all the instructions for file sharing!  PLEASE HELP!

You cannot import a pdf or an Excel file into Pages. Do the Word files have the .doc or .docx extension after the file name?

  • TS3991 Can't upload document to iWork

  • I can't upload documents to iCloud on my ipad2

    I can't upload documents in to iCloud from my Ipad2.  When I go to iCloud/iWork.com, it takes to me the iCloud set up page even though iCloud is set up and working on my iPad2.  Also - the only way I get documents that I have loaded in to iCloud to download is if I open them on my Ipad.  I can't access them on my iMac until I have accessed them on my iPad.
    Any suggestions???

    I had the two accounts set up in my emails. I deleted my old MobileMe account and it's now working.

  • Can you do document compare in pages, can you do document compare in pages

    In that "other" word processing program, you can do a document compare to see how the documents differ. I have not found how to do that in Pages. Is it possible?

    No, it's not funny !
    It's really boring to see titles with questions repeated two, three or even four times.
    Is it so difficult to take care of what you type ?

  • Pages: Can't open document on iPad

    Dear,
    Yesterday i started a big document on my iPad using pages.
    After finishing it i could send PDF to an email address.
    Today i try to edit something but i cant use the document anymore. i dont see an icon of my text but an icon of pages and when i try to use it i get an error messages like: "Can't open document". iPad, iPhone and iCloud cant reach the document anymore.
    Any idea how to get my document back?????
    TIA !

    It seems to be hit or miss if this works or not, but try opening Pages on the iPad, then before you select a document, on the very first screen, hit the "Edit" button, then select your document. Then click the arrow coming out of the box in the upper left corner &amp; email the document to yourself. Try opening the email on a computer, selecting the file and adding the pages file type (.pages) to the end of the name. Then try reopening it in Pages.
    I don't know if this is what happened in your case, but it seems like sometimes iWork documents lose that file type indicator &amp; then Pages (numbers/ Keynote) won't open them.

  • Can't upload documents

    Hi
    OK, first, I will describe my problem. Since some weeks I am using a very new macbook Pro with the latest software updates (os x 10.7.3 lion). I was very impressed about the working comfort and how every single detail was working (it was my first mac, earlier I have always used *******). Where I live, internet download is very slow. The maximum download speed is about 250 kb/s and only on good days, upload much slower (10-20 kb/s).
    Now I found out that I could use iCloud like a usb stick, I mean upload it at home and download it at school. So I followed the apple instructions to activate iCloud on my mac. All the settings are now on.
    So, to the real problem. When I open Safari, go to iCloud.com/iWork, the normal welcome-page appears. It says there big "iCloud for pages" and there are 2 buttons which say "more information" and "get pages for iOS". Now every help-site and every post tells me to open finder and drag and drop documents to the safari (I use version 5.1.3)  window. So I open finder, click on the document I want to upload and drag it over to the safari window. As soon as I move my mouse over the background of the "iCloud for pages" site, a white + on green round background appears next to the name of my document. But when I let it go, nothing happens. The name of the document and the + just disappear, nothing is left there. Even if I wait some time, nothing happens. I can try everything, use a very small document, use another browser as google chrome 17 or try on the family computer which still works with *******. Nothing what we call an upload happens, it rests like I would have done nothing.
    Something very strange happened to me when I was trying to upload a document at school, where internet is a little better (but they also use *******). I dragged and dropped, but instead of nothing it said "wrong file format", which was not the surprising thing (i wanted to upload a .xlsx file to the pages site), the surprising thing was that SOMETHING happened. Another time, this time .doc to pages site, it said "a problem occured. please try again later".
    What am I doing wrong??? Is my internet connection too slow? Might I have done something wrong when activating iCloud? By the way, uploading to iwork.com works perfectly!
    Or will I have to go to the next dataQuest store (1 hour away) to fix the problem?
    hope somebody will find a solution.

    First, I have pages on my macbook, but this is no iOS device as we all know. I don't have an iPhone and don't intend to buy any iOS device.
    So, if I don't have any iOS device, iCloud is just some nothing for me? If that's so, it would be quite a shame. So if I had an iPhone or something with pages on it, I could upload from my macbook and download at school? This wouldn't really make that much sense to me.

  • I have Pages 4.1.  Do I need to pay for an upgrade to Pages iOS to upload documents to iCloud?

    Have a new Air but transferred all my old software over from a previous Macbook.  I have iWork '09.  My Pages software is marked 4.1 -- and now I want to use iCloud to store Pages documents.  Do I need to pay the $9.99 from the App Store for a new version of Pages?  Or is there a way to use my existing Pages and get documents uploaded to my iCloud?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Pages 4.1 is the latest pages application, you do not need to update pages on your Mac.
    However in order to use documents and data syncing, you need to be able to open documents on an iOS device, requiring you to have the pages app on that iOS device. Without this, the document and data section at iCloud.com will not let you add documents to it.

  • Can't upload documents to the cloud

    I am trying to upload some documents to the cloud, using reader xi, but every time i do it the progress bar gets to about 90% and then i get an error message telling me there has been an error accessing the service.
    I have also tried uploading via acrobat.com but it just freezes.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Hi edyuen,
    Are you trying to upload from with Reader or Acrobat? Or are you uploading directly to https://cloud.acrobat.com? What is the exact error message that you're receiving? Have you tried to upload other files? If so, have you met with success, or are they failing, too?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Can't upload documents using Adobe Send

    I did it through the browser to https://cloud.acrobat.com. I don't remember the exact wording of the error. Message. Something like "Sorry, there is an error uploading your files..." I did this a few times since AdobeSendNow became AdobeSend. Sometimes work, some doesn't. It's all by luck but I will say most of the times fail.
    Thanks for looking into this.
    Eddie

    Hi Eddie,
    (I branched your post to a new thread, as it sounds like the issue is specific to Adobe Send? Is that correct?)
    How large are the files that you're trying to upload? Can you please test your upload speed at http://testmy.net and let us know what the report shows?
    Thanks!

    And by the way, how can I recover them?
    Thanks

    Please see

    and the subsequent two pages in the sidebar.
    You will need to have an iOS device registered with iCloud.

  • I can not upload pages's documents to iCloud

    I can not upload pages's documents to iCloud. Always say the same thing: there was a problem uploading the document try again in a few moments. Why? What goes wrong?

    Which operating system are you using, how are you attempting to upload your documents.

  • After hours of back-up, downloading and uploading...I am now updated with all the latest Mac software. However, I no longer have access to Excel and Word. Is there a way I can access my documents in either of those? Help, please.

    After hours of back-up, downloading and uploading...I am now updated with all the latest Mac software. However, I no longer have access to Excel and Word. Is there a way I can access my documents in either of those? Help, please.

    If you have older versions of excel and word that previously ran under the Rosetta emulator (allows PowerPC code to run on Intel system), they will no longer work with Lion.
    You can use the Apple programs Pages and Numbers to access the files. They can be bought and downloaded from the App store. NeoOffice is available at http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php which has Lion support. OpenOffice doesn't talk to Lion support, it's at http://www.openoffice.org/
