Pages: It says it's already download in the app store but my Mac says I need to upgrade it. Any ideas?

Really need some help here. Could it have something to do with the Cloud?

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • My Ipad 2 will not open apps that I have download from the app store but will open apps that came preinstalled.

    My IPAD 2 will some times not open apps that I have down load from the app store. But will open all of the preinstalled apps.I must go to the app store and install something and then all the apps will open. I should not have to install unwanted apps to keep my IPad working.I have reset and total reset nothing sames to work.

    Sounds to me like you may have an issue with the firmware, i.e. the iOS version that you are runing.  I also have an iPad 2  and sometimes have to restart it to get it to recognize and run a newly downloaded app.  And only once or twice have I had to uninstall and redownload an app that this didn't fix. I think this has more to do with the way an app has been coded more than anything else.
    You might try doing a "Reset All Settings" reset and set it up as a new iPad.  You should not lose any data, apps, music, videos, etc. that you have stored on your device.  I have done this a few times when tweaking the iOS 5.0.1 firmware and never lost anything.  You do have to re-enter your ID's and Passwords for wifi.  And of course you will need to go back into settings and reset any changes you may have made to things like location and notifications.
    I don't know if this will work, but if I was in your place this is the next step that I would take.

  • Cannot download from the App Store

    I have tried many things:
    Used the Activity Monitor to stop "storeagent"
    Terminal to:
    rm -r ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
    rm -r ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.storeagent
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    rm ~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist

    Changed password for iTunes/App Store
    Verified Account including Credit Card Info
    Repaired Disk
    Repaired Permissions
    Reloaded Mountain Lion (ML)
    Verified Programs (ML, iTunes) were up-2-date
    Disabled anti-virus software
    Disabled Firewall
    I can purchase Apps or purchase songs from iTunes; just cannot download.  I get "An error has occurred" (on Purchases Page)  I get an alert when downloading from the App Store to go the Purchases Page and try downloading. 
    This is on my MacBook Pro running ML. (v.10.8.2)  I can sign into my account using my wife's MacBook Air and download all day in either iTunes or the App Store.  I can also download with my iPad.
    I really am at a loss.  There may be more that I have done but right now I am burnt out and tired of this.  Apple Support has been no help.
    I would greatly appreciate any help.
    Tks in advance.

  • My iphone has internet connection and i can connect to the app store,but wen i go2 download stuf i hve to review my account 1st as i havent downlaod nething yet.. after i enter the card details it says your request is temporarily unavailable

    my iphone has an internet connect and can browse safari, and it can also connect to the app store, but wen i go to download anything it says i have to review my account.. so i enter all my details and card details and move on to the next step.. but it says "cannot connect to itunes " and " your request is temporarly unavailable"

    Emily,
    thanks for your posting, it just reflects my experience (although I didn't contact the helpdesk, but after what you wrote I think I can skip that part). I am livin in China and buy from the German MS, worked fine until about a week ago when the download of an album stopped just after 5 songs. I have never been able to connect to the shop ever since.
    The interesting thing is, that I get a response from their server in the domain phobos.apple.com (phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/storeFront) which I would interpret that there can't be a problem which they always list (Antivirus, Firewall etc...)
    So will there ever be somebody from Apple who is going to give a better explanation how to solve the problem ? Or are there already too many people buying iPods and music ???

  • Why is when I try to download from the App Store, it says "The application cannot be downloaded." I do have an ID account and my software has been updated.

       Hello there, I'm new to the Apple world, and I'm still learning my way around.
    Why is when I try to download from the App Store, it says "The application cannot be downloaded."
    It doesn't ask me for payment or anything. When I click on download, about 10 seconds later, that message pops up and nothing is downloaded onto my laptop. I can download other stuff onto my laptop for e.g. Microsoft Word and other various programs such as Google Chrome from the internet. However, I just cannot download from App Store. Any suggestions on how I can download apps?

    There is nothing wrong with my iTunes, is more of the App store that I am concerned about. And I've tried the "Authorise this computer" yes it does download when using iTunes, but no luck with App Store. And, yes I am logged onto iTunes when doing purchases.
    I find this really fustrating because the App store works fine on my ipod but once it comes to my macbook, it does not download. A few seconds later after I click on an app to download, the pop up message notifies me that the purchase cannot be downloaded.
    Anyways, thanks for your suggestion. 

  • Pages downloaded from the App-store refuses to save: Permission denied. How can I download a new one?

    Pages downloaded from the App-store refuses to save: Permission denied. How can I download a new one? Please Advice .

    Is the computer yours, and are you the Administrator or a user with administrator rights? Are you allowed to install software on the computer?
    Check your "purchased" list. Pages should show there, and if it's not installed it should read "install" next to it.
    Have you tried another mac? You can install the purchased software on another Mac by using your AppleID that you purchased the software with on the first mac.

    Hello - my safari on my ipad2 gives the following message "safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding"...email works fine and I can download from the app store...seems to just be a safari issue

    Marc-
    The Safari message is probably telling the truth.  Is the problem repeatable at several websites, or is it only with a particular one?  If all websites, you may have trouble with your internet connection downloading large amounts of data.  Mail messages are relatively small unless there are attachments or embedded images.

  • I am unable to download from the APP store. I get an error message saying my computer is not verified and click support under quick links..

    I am unable to download from the APP store. I get an error message saying my computer is not verified and click support under quick links..

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • I have Snow leopard, 10.6.8 on my iMac, I just tried to install Lion from the App store, but during proces, the install stops after one minute saying: "software might be damaged". I downloaded the software again, same thing. What must I do to install Lion

    I have Snow leopard, 10.6.8 on my iMac, I just tried to install Lion from the App store, but during proces, the install stops after one minute saying: "software might be damaged". I downloaded the software again, same thing. What must I do to install Lion? I have still 487GB free.

    Quit all other programs and open Disk Utility
    Select your "MacintoshHD" drive on the left and indented and click Erase > Erase Free Space > Zero and let it complete.
    Also run First Aid > Repair Disk and permisisons.
    If Repair disk gives a error, you have a bigger problem, if repair permisisons fixes and completes, even if it fixes the same thing twice if you click it again, it's ok. Apple just changed things.
    You should be able to download the file sucessfully this time, if not, take it to another location with better/faster internet.
    If not then run through this list
    Step by Step to fix your Mac

  • I don't know how it happened but my camera was deleted,i tried downloading it from app store but i can't find it there,i tried downloading other photography app but it didn't work for it says my device has no camera.how can i get my cam back?

    i don't know how it happened but my camera was deleted,i tried downloading it from app store but i can't find it there,i tried downloading other photography app but it didn't work for it says my device has no camera.how can i get my cam back?

    Default apps are part of the iOS and cannot be deleted.  Search all home screens and all folders and/or search for it with Spotlight, that will tell you what folder it's in.
    Also check Settings > General > Restrictions to see if it has been restricted.
    If not found, Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • Hi I have downloaded compressor4 from Apps store but it won't open - says compressor not properly installed. The reason for my purchase was that compressor 3 stopped working. I tried to reinstall from the FCP disk but it was 'greyed out'.

    Hi I have downloaded compressor4 from Apps store but it won't open - says compressor not properly installed. The reason for my purchase was that compressor 3 stopped working. I tried to reinstall from the FCP disk but it was 'greyed out'. I followed suggestions from the apple site to clear various library files - mainly relating to Qmaster but this didn't make any difference, an iwonder igf perhaps this is the reason for the compressor 4 programme not working. Thanks
    Tom

    You need to export a self-contained video from FCP 6. Import the self-contain video into Compressor 4.

  • HT201269 I thought I had a problem after my iPhone suddenly lost an app, I restored from a back up and am now missing some apps. They appear on my I tunes page and say 'open' in the app store, but aren't on the phone. Help,

    I was using my iPhone and 'lost' an app. I restored my phone from an earlier backup, but now can't see some of my apps. They are shown as being on the phone in both iTunes and the app store, but clearly aren't on the phone.
    Where have I gone wrong.

    Download them to iTunes abd then sync the apps. Make an appointment with Apple and see what the problem is.
