Pages on iPhone

If i have downloaded pages for both my macbook and my iPhone - would it be possible to edit a document on my mac, go out, and continue from where i left off on my mac on my iphone?

Largely yes, there are more tools and features on the Mac, but they both share the same file format via iCloud.

  • Documents from Mac added to iCloud do not show up in Pages on iPhone 4S

    Synopsis: Dcouments added to iCloud through Safari on Mac do not show up in Pages on iPhone 4S. New documents created in Pages on iPhone do not show up in iCloud. I expect the doucments to appear on my iPhone soon after uploading them from my Mac to iCloud through Safari, and to appear in iCloud soon after switching to the document listing in Pages and leaving the app. Several hours passed by without transfer happening, and I have waited a day and reconnected to Wi-Fi to wait several more hours. Still nothing shows up either in Pages on iPhone, or in iCloud in Safari on Mac. They are listed with their sizes and extensions (.pages or .pages-tef) in the iPhone Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage > Pages, though they don't seem selectable from there.
    Software versions and Settings:
    Mac
    Mac OS X 10.7.2 (Lion)
    Safari 5.1.1
    Pages 4.1
    System Preferences > iCloud: signed in; everything selected, except Photo Stream (no iPhoto).
    Everything seems to work, except Find My Mac is flakey.
    iPhone 4S
    iOS 5.0
    Pages 1.5 (417) [no other iWork apps]
    Documents:
    the defualt "Getting Started";
    a test document with default name "Blank" and content with the word "Testing", shown with upwards arrow in upper right corner; tried renaming to "Just testing", no transfer resulted.
    Plus button + offers: Create Document; copy from iTunes, iDisk, WebDAV; no iCloud (probably because it's supose to be auto);
    Settings > Pages:
    Use iCloud: ON
    Restore: OFF; I have tried this, it automatically turns itself off after restarting Pages. No obvious changes result in Pages.
    Settings > Wi-Fi: ON, connected to a network; tried several networks around town, as well as at home with a Time Capsule router.
    Settings > iCloud:
    everything ON, except Photo Stream;
    Documents & Data:
    Documents & Data: ON
    Use Cellular: ON; also tried OFF initially.
    Storage & Backup:
    Manage Storage > Pages:
    three documents in iCloud are listed, one of which I had created before iCloud on iPhone 3GS, and deleted from iPhone 4S after documents added to iCloud from Mac weren't showing up as expected;
    their sizes are given;
    suffixes are .pages for the two created on Mac, and .pages-tef for the one created on iPhone 3GS (before iCloud);
    iCloud Backup: ON; successfully backs up everyday;
    Email works, contacts are synced, calendar works, and everything seems fine except access to documents.
    Approaches:
    Software updates
    Updated all software, no further updates available. Please confirm with aforementioned version numbers.
    Add and Remove Documents
    Used Safari to add two documents to iCloud with its menu for Pages of iCloud's iWork section, one at a time. Documents were originally created in Pages on Mac, and continuously edited since then. Explicitly saved documents (Save a Version on Lion) before uploading. Documents appeared listed in web page without problem.
    Have tried deleting a document on iPhone that was originally created with Pages on iPhone 3GS prior iOS 5 as a way to jog the listing on iCloud. Listing on iCloud in Safari on Mac continues to show document deleted from iPhone. [Before deleting document, I had updated iPhone 3GS to iOS 5 and signed into iCloud a couple days before getting iPhone 4S, then immediately used the restore from iCloud feature for the iPhone 4S in the Apple retail store, updated all apps on Mac and iPhone, then deleted the document in Pages on iPhone.]
    On iCloud in Safari on Mac: deleted the two documents uploaded from Mac; added the same documents again; edited documents on Mac, then uploaded and chose "Replace documents"; removed documents again; added them again. Never showed up in Pages on iPhone, even after waiting a day.
    Have used iTunes to add the same documents to Pages on iPhone. Successfully opened documents in Pages on iPhone through plus button + > Copy from iTunes. Deleted documents from Pages's document listing, though they remain in iTunes section.
    Removed documents of same name, though older copies, from Pages in iTunes for the iPhone.
    Created a new document with Pages on iPhone, simply added one word "Testing" and then switched to document listing. New document has name "Blank" and an arrow in the upper right corner indicating it will upload next time an internet connection is established. That hasn't happened regardless of being connected to Wi-Fi and cellular for several hours. Next day, reconnected to internet with both Wi-Fi and cellular, the new dcoument "Blank" still is not in iCloud when I visit the site in Safari on Mac, and still has the arrow in the upper right corner in Pages on iPhone.
    iPhone 4S Connected to Internet
    Connected to Wi-Fi several hours each day, and cellular all day except from about 10pm to 7am when I switch it to Airplane mode. Always connected to Wi-Fi and cellular when attempting to access the documents in Pages on iPhone.
    Restart iPhone and Pages
    Have double-pressed Home button on iPhone to reveal along the bottom of screen a list of apps currently open, touched and held an icon to reveal the close badge on all icons, and selected the close badge on Pages, waited a few seconds, then started Pages again.
    Have held On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears, then powered off iPhone, waited a few seconds, then held button again to start. Have done this with Pages either open or closed, per previous note. Still no change in document listing for Pages: test document still has not gone to iCloud, documents in iCloud still have not shown.
    I think the only thing I haven't done is a complete restore.
    Question: Can anybody point out what I might have missed or haven't tried that would get the documents from iCloud to Pages and vice versa?
    I'm not looking forward to several hours of restoring, but if I must…
    TIA

    Okay, I'm not sure what finally jogged it. It seems to be finally working.
    After downloading any documents I could from iCloud to my Mac, I deleted all the documents from iCloud. I also deleted all documents from Pages on iPhone, except the original "Getting Started" document.
    I duplicated the "Getting Started" document (Pages on iPhone) and edited it by moving the butterfly to the left on the same page, then switched to the Documents view. It had the arrow in the upper right corner of "Getting Started Copy", but no progress bar and nothing showed up in iCloud.
    Then, I think I went to Settings > Pages > Use iCloud: NO. Went back to Pages and got a dialog in the Documents listing:
         You are not using iCloud
    What would you like to do with the
         documents currently on this
                        iPhone?
    Keep on My iPhone
    Delete from My iPhone
    Continue Using iCloud
    I tried keeping them, then going back and turning it back on in Pages's settings, then going back to Pages. Finally something different happened: a progress bar on the "Getting Started copy" document. It never seem to finish, and would disappear if the phone went to sleep. I tried the whole sequenece again with same result, and nothing on iCloud.
    I then tried Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data: OFF, and agreed to "Turn Off Documents" and have all documents stored in iCloud deleted, because as far as I could tell there weren't any documents in iCloud at this point anyways. I went back to Pages and the "Getting Started copy" suddenly disappeared.
    So, I went back to Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data: ON, and did the same for Settings > Pages > Use iCloud: ON. Oddly, Pages now tried to download "Getting Started copy" even though it really shouldn't have existed anymore. I tried iCloud in Safari on Mac and saw there now was a document by that name, but when selected it said "Updating…" on it. I deleted it in iCloud, and it disappeared (I think, or I deleted it) in Pages on iPhone.
    I gave up and waited a bit, maybe an hour or two.
    I made sure all the settings were how they needed to be, noticed no documents in iCloud, and only the original "Getting Started" document in Pages on iPhone. I duplicated that document, and that's when it seemed to actually work. First, the arrow in its upper right corner appeared briefly, then a progress bar appeared on it instead, then the progress bar actually moved and completed. (I think. Some indicator happened. Everything is kind of fuzzy at this point while I'm writing this and juggling a couple other technical tasks.) Then I checked iCloud in Safari on Mac and the document was there. Wow.
    So, I immediately tried uploading to iCloud from my Mac the two documents I had been trying, one at a time. Each time the document succeeded in iCloud, it suddenly appeared in Pages on iPhone. In fact, the second document began to appear in the documents listing in Pages on iPhone just before the progress bar in iCloud completed.
    I tried opening each one in Pages on iPhone, and iCloud immediately updated each one with a preview and as downloadable. I downloaded them to the Mac and they opened fine. [Admittedly, the Pages version from iCloud of the "Getting Started copy" with the moved butterfly was a little different in Pages on Mac: it had the butterfly on the previous page underneath everything; the PDF version of that document had everything correct.]
    Anyways, the document listing between iCloud and Pages on iPhone is working now.
    I thinking it might have helped to clear out all the documents in iCloud and deleting all documents in Pages for iPhone. However, be sure to at least email copies from Pages on iPhone first if you don't have any backups. I think it might also have helped to turn off Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data: OFF, so it'll send that signal to delete the documents in iCloud, even if there's already nothing there. I don't know for sure, but that's probably the way to start from scratch. Oh, and maybe wait an hour or two after that before doing anything again, then turn Documents & Data: ON, and Pages > Use iCloud: ON, and then start by creating a new document in Pages on iPhone.
    I'm just glad I didn't have to do a Restore from iTunes. And now that it's working, it's so instant between Pages on iPhone and iCloud! This is seeming like it will definitely be great, now that it's working.

  • I cannot open Keynote and Pages in iPhone/iPad iOS 7

    After updating to iOS 7 and iWork for iOS, I'm no loger able to use iWork for iOS when iCloud is turned on.
    I've two apple accounts, one for Mexico store and another one for US store. A couple of yeard ago I purchased Numbers for iphone/ipad using MX account, and Keynote and Pages for iphone/ipad using my US account.
    Before updating to iOS 7, I was able to use iCloud for keynote, numbers and pages without any problem. All my documents were backed up on the MX account in iCloud. My iphone/ipad was logged into iCloud using my MX account all the time.
    After updating to iOS 7, I keep using my MX account for iCloud, but I'm no longer to open Keynote and Pages (which were purchased with my US account) when iCloud is activated for them.
    What's going wrong with apple?! I think iOS 7 is very buggy and it is the worst OS they have ever make available for users!!! Can't believe the amount of errors I keep finding in most of Apple apps!!!
    Please advice! Regards,

  • Is Pages on iPhone same as Pages on MacBook Air?

    I already bought Pages for iPhone and have since updated to version 2.0. now need Pages update for MacBook. Why do I need to purchase for $19.99?
    "Pages 4.3 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store. Do you want to buy Pages 5.0.1?"

    They are separate appliactions for separate OSes.
    Are you sure you "need" Pages 5? In most respects it is a downgrade.
    However if you insist, see Apple Up-To-Date Program:

  • Coming Soon page for iPhone

    any chance that apple would update the Coming Soon page for iPhone in other countries, coz the list seems to be the exact same since forever !!

    Hi
    you may do better in the Developer or even the iWeb sections - but possibly the iPhone is designed to display regular (much wider than 480) pages w/o scrolling, so defaults to 'squeezing' yours to suit that.

So any way to solve this problem? Thank you.

    I would say the iphone headset have 4 wires

    I would say an external mic being mono at least that all iphone support
    would be 2 wires

    ground
    then I would take a apple headset and cannibalize it
    there also are adaptors which change the apple headset into
    2 normal std 3.5mm audio output connector
    1 mono mic in connector you could chekc out those

    Is there anyway to recover this document?

  • Editing pages on iphone

    I just recently downloaded OSX Mountain Lion and Pages. On my IPhone I can see that the documents that I added to Pages are there, but I can't open or edit them. How do I edit my saved documents from Pages on ICloud?

    To follow on ckuan's comment, Pages for iOS is not identical to Pages for OSX.  They both read and write the same files, and they both interact with iCloud, but each application must be separately purchased.
    You probably bought Pages for OSX in the Mac App Store.  If you would like Pages for iPhone (which, by the way, will also work on an iPad if you have one), you must buy that in the iTunes Store.

  • When i put in it the sim card and then turn the iphone the home page of iphone does not come and message come told me invalid sim or iphone is lock but my sim card is not invalid

    When i put in it the sim card and then turn the iphone the home page of iphone does not come and message come told me invalid sim or iphone is lock but my sim card is not invalid and my iphone is work with all network in sweden

    That usually means your phone is locked to a different phone carrier than the one you're trying to use.
    YOu would need to conact the carrier the phone is locked to and see if they can unlock it for you.  ONly the carrier that the phone is locked to is authorized to unlock it.

  • Export pages on iPhone 4 to Word document

    I have an 8GB iPhone 4 running iOS 6 that I got free from my phone company when the iPhone 5 came out.  I spent a lot of time trying to find a good word processor, and came to realize free ones weren't going to cut it.  My daughter gave me an iTunes card for Christmas, and I used it to get Pages.  I have used it to make a few documents in idle times, making notes, and usually I just look at the notes, and write them into a new document on my Windows laptop.  Now, I have something I have completely drafted in Pages, and every attempt to transfer it to my laptop into Word format ends up with 10 pages of gobbledegook.  I do just as directions, you tube videos, and this very support site say, and my little 5 page short story turns into 10 pages of useless data.  I've tried opening it with Word, Open Office, and Libre.  I've even tried using Notepad, and Wordpad.  Notepad at least gave me the body of my actual story, but I had to go through several pages of garbage data to finally see it, and I'll have to do some serious editing to make it something I can use.
    What is going on?  I see iPhone and iPad demos, where they simply do exactly as I did (Share and Print>Copy to iTunes>Word), and they get their files.  What am I doing wrong?
    To be honest, I cannot wait until my next upgrade.  I'm getting a phone that can play better with others.  Apple is too closed, and insular for me.  I need to be able to use my machine, not just follow it's instructions.  This has been my first smartphone, and it has been fun, but I need to take off the training wheels.  Until then, I want my files in a usable format.  HELP!!!

    AAAaaand still nothing. 
    Okay, a little update for me: i updated to iOS 7 (and despite severeal reviews I've read, it actually runs pretty darn good on this older model phone, better than iOS 6 in most ways, only a video lag issue that I was expecting from the reviews, but not as bad as many claimed, and everything else the reviewers were wrong about), and today got it's bugfix update.  Mainly I just wanted to see if the itunes transfer of Pages files to Word files suddenly decided to start working.  Nope, it didn't.
    Another thing I've tried, before and after the update, is e-mailing the files rather than transferring through itunes.  It was a vain hope, but my thought was maybe itunes was corrupting the files in some way.  Well, my story is a little longer now, and the 10 pages of gobbledegook is now 15.  E-mail made no difference.
    One thing I have not mentioned is exporting the files in .pdf format, that has always worked beautifully.  Problem is, I can't easily edit those files.  The easiest way is to copy and paste the body of the document into a word file, but after that I have to reset all of the carriage returns, and some spacings (mostly the double space after a period, exclamation point, or question mark; it gets turned to a single space).
    This is why I want the export to .doc to work, so I don't have to constanly re-edit after just switching the file between computers (i do regard the iphone as a computer with a phone built in).  Why doesn't it work?  Can it be fixed?  How?  Of the, at this point, 79 views, someone must have an idea of what to do?

  • Can you change the currency formatting in a cell using Pages for iPhone?

    Since my MacBook Pro is grumpy this morning, I downloaded Pages for my iPhone and then purchased the app "Inspiration Set" which contains a group of templates for use in Pages. I think the original templates were built on a Mac.
    I have opened up the template, changed all the info to build my invoice, but they have a group of cells set for pounds instead of dollars. Does the iPhone version of Pages allow me to reformat these cells as dollars, instead of pounds?
    My Mac is STILL not starting up, so I HAVE to be able to find a solution using the iPhone ONLY...
    Thanks for any help,
    -Chris

    Guy,
    Update: I wrote the following before putting on my glasses and realizing that you were asking about Pages rather than Numbers. Maybe the same procedure will apply.
    See these nice instructions.
    In short: To select a currency symbol, tap Currency, and then tap the symbol you want.
