Pages on iMac 2010

Just updated to mavericks; now can't open certain files in pages on my Mac, cause have to upgrade to version 5.0  = €17,99
This was told to me by Apple support, by email .
It's just unacceptable !!
Apple has to give me the possibility to use my docs !!!!

Did you make the Keynotes presentation in the old or the new Keynotes, if you made it with the old version and try to modify it with the new there could be some incomaptibilites. Try opening the presentation with the original version of Keynotes which will probably be located in the Applications folder under iWork.
Does the message state you may or must purchase an upgrade. For most tasks the old Pages will work on many occasions.
I have the latest Pages to allow my devices to share over iCloud but I have not upgraded Numbers or Keynote as I do not require the functions the lastest versions provide.

  • How to connect new Macbook pro 2014 to iMac 2010 for a secondary display

    I have a new Macbook Pro 2014 and an old iMac 2010. How can I connect them to have an additional secondary display? I thought I would need a thunderbolt cable with a Thunderbolt to Mini DisplayPort adapter but I can't find that. There's lots of options and I don't understand what would be best.
    Macbook Pro 2014
    iMac 2010
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi Nathaniel,
    Thunderbolt is another way of calling it a Mini Displayport, thunderbolt is just faster and has more usage with other products (i.e. hdds, displays etc.) You can hook up a thunderbolt to a mini-display port because both are the same size and serve the same function. Just don't connect anything to the display port on the iMac other than a computer.
    Kind Regards,

  • Please help! My Itunes says corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling so I moved it to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I can't delete or open to close it, what do I do

    Please help!
    My Itunes says there is a corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling ITunes so I moved ITunes to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj". I can't delete ITunes or open ITunes to close the Japanese.lproj, what do I do? Thank you for any help you can provide..

    It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj".
    Interesting. This sort of thing is more common on Windows systems. Taken at face value, one of the iTunes program files (one of the Japanese language resources) is damaged.
    I'd try running your Disk Utility over your startup disk. Does it find/repair any damage? If so can you empty your trash and reinstall your iTunes successfully now?

  • Is it possible to use the old iMac 2010 21inch as an external monitor for my 15inch Macbook retina?

    Is it possible to use the old iMac 2010 21inch as an external monitor for my 15inch Macbook retina? E.g. Using a mini-display cable to connect from the imac mini display port to thunderbolt port on my macbook.

    Apple shows only the 27" version supporting Target Display Mode.

  • Can i use iCloud for pages documents iMac?

    can i use iCloud for pages documents iMac?

    Hi lmdavis72,
    It looks like you can.
    From "iCloud: Documents in the Cloud overview"
    You can download a document from icloud.com/iwork to your Mac or Windows computer, edit it, and then drag the revised version to icloud.com/iwork. It’s then automatically updated on all of your iOS devices. You can also drag an iWork ’09 (Keynote, Pages, and Numbers) or Microsoft Office (PowerPoint, Word, and Excel) document created on your computer to icloud.com/iwork.
    So it looks like it can go between iOS devices and your iMac.

  • IMac 2010 11,3 Green/Purple Pixels

    Hi Guys,
    Been browsing the internet for ages, including the apple forums, and always come across similar issues, but never seem to fit mine 100%.
    I've got a 27" iMac 2010 11,3 i5.
    Basically, about a year or so ago, it started to get these slight green and purple pixels on the screen, more square artifacts than anything else, but it was no problem, because if i'd 'select' them with the cursor, they'd go, as time progressed they've gotten worse and worse, to the point where they would take over the whole screen, again, a simple 'select' all of the screen would remove them for a short while, they never appeared doing anything specfic, but would be guarenteed to turn up.
    The system now is only really usuable during Safe Boot, Under normal boot conditions, it will last between 15 seconds and an hour tops, Until it just hangs, the entire GUI is locked, however the Cursor will move, I've left it for a while to see if it will reclaim itself, but to no avail, the only option is to hold down the power until it shuts down.
    Now, this only started happening after upgrading to Lion, I've since moved to Mountain Lion, and it still persists, So i decided to do an Apple Hardware Test in Extended mode, I received an error regarding the HDD, which was a 1TB Western Digital Drive, Don't get me wrong, it was slow, but it never seemed to give me issues, so I replaced the hard drive (No Apple care & out of Warranty), with a 2TB Seagate Model, Installed Mountain Lion, instant issues, Straight after succesful install.
    I've since done several other Hardware Tests, and the only issue i get is the Hard Drive Sensor, Which I understand because of the 3rd Party hard drive.
    So, within the last 3-4 weeks i've reinstalled, Re formatted, Zero'd the hard drive around 15 times, just to see if anything changed.
    With Regards to the Safe Mode Boot, Its perfect, never get artifacts, never get a hang, nothing! Same goes for anything other than Normal Boot Conditions.
    These pixels can be screenshot and still remain there! They also appear over Screen Sharing.
    The system was bought for Graphic Design use, and thats what its needed for, But with it getting to the point of me only being able to work under safe mode, I've run out of options!
    From what I know, someting under normal boot conditions is causing the issue, a kext maybe, but I've no idea on which one is causing the issue.
    Even if i can get it working with something disabled/removed it's fine, But Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign are my work, and without being able to use them i'm pretty much limited!
    I've obviously tried resetting the SMC/PRAM again, no changes, I've changed the RAM, bought new, swapped out, Nothing no changes.
    The system is currently running 10.8.3.
    One thing i did notice, is that the system often lasts longer before it hangs under the 64 Bit Kernel, rather than the 32 Bit Kernel (Not sure if thats expected or not but thought it would be worth a mention)
    Thanks for all and any advice given in advance!
    Ethan.

    Hey,
    Sorry for a delay in reply!
    Well no, i never solved it, I've since stripped the machine and tried to see whats going on, and everything seems perfect.
    A company has suggested its the graphics chip, and has offered to re-ball it, but i'm not sure on that yet.
    But to add injurt to insult, hald of my display is now flickering every half hour or so.
    I think i'm at a loss with it.
    Only thing its being used for now is a Target Display Mode for a Mac Mini, which ironically works perfectly, and the hard drive is set up as a shared drive, So it's just a really expensive screen!

  • Windows 7 64 Bit install on Imac 2010 Using Boot Camp PLease Help

    OK so I am trying to install my 64 bit windows 7 using bootcamp on my imac 2010 i just bought it today. I have created the partition and the computer restarted and went to windows 7 setup however it then told me it could not find any drivers for the cd/dvd. I think the drivers on the OS X cd but i cant eject the windows 7 cd to put the OS X cd in because I am in windows 7 setup and the eject button wont work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed? I would Really appreciate it thank you.

    It sounds that the Microsoft Installer does not like the optical drive inside of your Mac.
    Do you have access to an external DVD drive?
    If yes, try the Windows 7 install with an external DVD drive.
    If no, try to install Windows 7 from a USB drive.

  • Installing Win 7 via Bootcamp on 27' iMac 2010 gives BLACK screen, BLINKING cursor error (BSBCE)?

    Hi All,
    All coments appreciated regarding thiis issue.
    I have a 2010 27' i7 2.93Ghz iMac with 8Gb ram, 2Tb Seagate, and 256 Samsung SSD.
    I am running 10.6.8 with all updates on the 2Tb Seagate (has BC 3.04), and 10.7.1 on the Samsung (has BC 4.0).
    I have tried over a dozen times to install Win 7 (both a 32 bit Professional edition and a 64 bit Ultimate edition) on BC partitions on both drives. These have been all on separate occasions of course.
    All installs result in what appears to be a successful install, but when the machine reboots to launch Win 7 for the first time, I ALWAYS get a black screen with a blinking cursor error (BSBCE).
    This is not the 2009 video card driver issue problem reported so widely and referred to in the Apple article TS3173. I had that model previously and the way around that was to connect a second monitor/LCD for the installation.
    No this is a new and separate issue.
    And I am no nubie. I have used IT for over 25 years and teach networking courses in the Win and Mac environments.
    The problem appears to be in a corrupt boot loader install.
    I have used both WIn 7 install disks to do a repair each time. The repair says it is successful but after rebooting all I get is the black screen and flashing cursor, with no keyboard response. I have used both Bluetooth keyboards and USB keyboards. Nothing seems to make a difference re getting WIn 7 to boot after the install on either drive.
    I have also used the Bootrec commands in the command window. They all return a successful outcome but when rebooting I see the ever familar BSBCE.
    Now,,,,,here is the real puzzle. I copied my previous Win 7 Ultimate install using Winclone before I sold my older 27' iMac.
    If I restore that install to the 2010 iMac Win 7 boots fine!
    So some error is happening on my current machine when the bootloader/bootmanager is being written to the BC partition.
    The problem is there with the BC on both 10.6 and 10.7, and these are different versions of BC!
    Now to further complicate the problem, I manage 12X 2011 21.5' iMacs in a lab at work. Win 7 Professional 32bit installed on these machines just as it should (same disks that produces the black screen flashing cursor).
    I have read that some people thing it is a Boot Rom version issue, and there may be some substance to this as WIN 7 installs so easily on the 2011 iMacs in my lab.
    I called Applecare about this and went through the procedures outlined above. The guy was very helpful and sympathetic but he had no answer to the problem. His suggestion was to pull the SSD out and do it again with only one drive. As the machine can ship from Apple with both of these drives I really do doubt that pulling the SSD would make a difference.
    Mac OS 10.6 and 10.7 work fine, no problems on both drives, so I don't think it is a drive issue.
    OK Mac gurus...over to you.

    I have a bookmark for iMac w/ SSD and hard drive.
    There is also the 'req'd reading' in http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp
    with one article on Black screen w/ iMac 2010.

  • HT1557 10.9.2 update won't update on my imac 2010 at all, and now my computer won't shutdown or restart without a hard boot.  Did anyone have this same problem and figure out how to fix it?

    So for the past few weeks I've been trying to update the 10.9.2 update on my imac (2010 - 21.5 inch) and when I attempt to try to update the software my screen goes grey with a Software Updater top bar the shows up on the top of the grey screen and then just quits doing anything (except the screen saver which works after nothing else happens - and that shows you how long I've been waiting for the grey screen to magically do something.  I've attempted downloading the software update then installing it but the same thing happens.  I don't think any of my 3rd party software is the cause of this and i'd rather not uninstall the programs since the update won't even do anything.  Utility is telling me nothing but the usual ARD element unable to be modified.
    With the several failed attempts at installing this update (probably around 15x) my computer will not shutdown nor restart on command anymore.  The only way I can shut it down is holding the power button.
    I used to have so much faith in Apple products and used to be a devoted user, but since Jobs passed away the direction of Apple has gone down the toilet.

    Well Bababooey if you're comparing yourself to a Apple Genius Bar then you should already know my answer, your snarky remark get a snarky reply.  Why would I go to a salesperson to fix my computer problem when I can go directly go to the source itself.  I used to sell Apple computers over 8 years ago and was apple certified before the Genius bar existed. If I am to go about fixing an issue I can't fix on my own I will go to the source itself meaning Apple's programmers and developers - being UI UX Developer myself I know they should have QA'd all platforms and troubleshooted any arising issues. 
    This was also the first time in the 20 years I've been using a Mac that I even attempted to go on this forum which i thought would put me in connection with a certified Apple representative.  This turned out to be a complete waste of time just being a public forum with no Apple employee involved.  I was hoping to find a quick fix but in turn I was only frustrated with stupid responses such as yours that were in no way an answer to my original question. 
    BTW I fixed the issue on my own and without your help or Apples help. I'm glad if all forums point here regarding this issue because I now have the answer. The answer I was looking for from someone earlier was as simple as this {Download Maverick and reinstall the platform - it will take an hour to do but afterward 10.9.2 was installed and my computer is now able to shutdown and restart without having to do a hard boot.}  No more software update bar at top and no problems with my drive which I told both you and Grant - I know my computer better than you and I've probably been using them longer than you. 
    So again Babowa you were so wrong...... and I am right.
    Again anyone having the same problem, I suggest reinstalling Maverick and you'll be suprised 10.9.2 will work fine.

  • Display Doc ID with Link to the Property page in SharePoint 2010

    Good Morning. 
    I have been asked to add the DocID to the search results.  Part two is to have that docID link to the property page for the item.
    I have added DocID to fetched property's and can display it fine on the page but I am having problems creating the link to the property pages.

    I would like the format of the DOCID to appear like this.
    [ DOCID ] with the Hyperlink to take you to the item property's page.
    thank you.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to display Doc ID with Link to the Property page in SharePoint 2010.
    SharePoint indexes Document IDs as a managed property by default, which means that with a little magic, we can add the Document ID into the search results.
    We need to modify the XSL so that we display the Document ID in the search results.
    Here is a great article for your reference:

    Guy would this be of any help:
    To start up your computer in Apple Hardware Test:
    Press the power button to turn on your computer.
    Press and hold the D key before the gray startup screen appears. If Apple Hardware Test does not start up, see the Additional Information section at the end of this article.
    Note: Some Macintosh computers that shipped with OS X Lion support the use of Apple Hardware Test over the Internet. These computers will start up to an Internet-based version of AHT if the hard drive does not contain AHT.  An Internet-enabled connection via Ethernet or Wi-Fi is required to use this feature.
    It takes a minute or so for Apple Hardware Test to start up and inspect your hardware configuration. While this is taking place, an icon appears on the screen:
    When the process is complete, select your language and click the right arrow. If you aren't using a mouse, you can use the up and down arrows to select a language and then press the Return key.
    The Apple Hardware Test console appears. You can choose which sort of test or tests to perform:
    To perform all of the basic tests, click the Test button or press the "T" key or the Return key.
    To perform a more thorough diagnostic test, select the "Perform extended testing" checkbox under the Test button before you click the Test button.
    Your test results will appear in the window in the bottom-right of the console.
    To exit AHT, click Restart or Shut Down at the bottom of the window.

  • Mountain lion installer tells me that my Macintosh HD drive is not formatted to mac os extended, but I am running SL 10.6.8-iMac 2010

    Thanks for any suggestions...iMac 2010 SL 10.6.8  trying to install ML 10.8.2   At the start of the installation(using downloaded installer from App Store) the installer advises that the Macintosh HD is not formatted as Moc OS Extended and directs me to aDisk Utility to do this .. surely this would format the drive and possibly do a Clean install ...which I not want to do..Is there a way to get round this issue?

    Get a blank powered external drive equal too or slightly larger than your internal boot drive
    Download a copy of Carbon Copy Cloner
    Use Disk Utility to Erase the drive using the Middle Secure Erase selection and wait. until finished (may take hours)
    Format the external drive Partition: 1, Option: GUID and Fomat: OS X Extended Journaled
    Use CCC's default settings and clone your internal drive to the external one, may take hours.
    When it's done, hold the option key down (wired or built in keyboard only) and reboot the computer, a screen pops up with bootable options, select the clone drive and check it out for some time.
    Run Disk Utility from the clone and select the Macintosh HD partition and Partition: Format: OS X Extended Journaled and click apply, it likely will moan about this will delete all your data (it will)
    Next click the Erase tab and use the middle secure erase option and click apply, wait it out again.
    When that's finished use Carbon Copy Cloner to reverse clone the clone back onto the internal drive.
    (note: in the future you can eliminate the secure erase steps and just click normal erase, as the bad sectors will have been already mapped off by the drive firmware)
