Pages shuts down

After about 30 minutes to an hour pages quits and a message comes up, SFWord Processing error! Any ideas?

I just happened to have suffered from the same error. Numbers quits giving an SFWord Processing-Plugin error.
I did everything, reinstalled from a freshly downloaded trial version, deleted all .plist files, fixed permissions, looked for duplicated fonts to no avail.
In the end I used the free ONYX http://www.titanium.free.fr/pgs/english.html program and under automation ran all the clean, sweep, rewrite precedures, restarted and now everything works fine.
I must be some preference file of any plugin/helper app that causes this strange behaviour in iWork applications under 10.5.5.
Hope this helps.

  • I have a problem with Pages shutting down my documents.

      I have a problem with Pages shutting down my documents. I have several
    several documents on my homepage,but once I select one it shuts down and
    goes to the ipad homepage.Other documents open with no problem.
    Can someone tell me what's happening

    Pages is crashing for some reason.
    You say that other documents open with no problems, do you mean other Pages documents or documents in another app?
    Try closing Pages completely in the recents tray and reboot your iPad. See if that helps. If it doesn't help, you may have to delete and reinstall Pages. If that doesn't work, you might have a corrupt document that you need to track down and delete.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Why does clicking on "Preferences" (to change home page) shut down Safari?

    What can I do to prevent Safari from immediately shutting down when I click on "Preferences" in an attempt to change my home page? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Mark
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Sounds like the Preference file is corrupt.
    In the Finder, drag to the desktop the com.apple.safari.plist folder found in your User Account>Library>Preferences folder.
    Restart Safari. Open the preference file. If no crash you'll need to reset your Safari preferences to your liking, plus any custom settings found in the Edit Menu (spelling) or View Menu (status bar, bookmarks bar, custom icons in the "Customize Address Bar" ).

  • Pages shuts down after I click to print

    Is anybody having this problem?
    Happening with the new intel G5 24" iMac
    I won't export to PDF but will export to Word... and won't print, it'll just shut down.
    Many thanks,

    Actually, only with one particular file, the only odd thing is I switched the page set up to horizontal instead of vertical layout.
    Once I figured this out I decided to stop wasting my time and just created a new file. But it still malfuction with the horizontal lay out so I changed it to vertical.
    Blesssings!

  • Pages shuts down when I try to print since i upgraded to Mavericks

    I upgraded last week, now when I try to print out of Pages, Keynote, Safari, the programs shut down. I'm printing over a network to a Konica Bizhub C203. All other programs print no problem, its only the 3 mac ones that will not print. Anyone else having this issue? Any known fixes?

    There are several bizhub threads here. See the "More Like This" sidebar to the right.
    Also, see

    for more information and a workaround.

  • TS3274 apple pages shutting down

    A document made by me in Apple Pages (installed on my IPAD 2) is not able to open at anymore. Previously it shutted down now and then but now I cannot open it at all. It contains 20-30 pictures and some text.
    What is wrong and how can I resque my letter?
    Regards Hans

    Quit Pages like this,
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
    Then reboot the iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Document will no open, pages shuts down

    When I tap a particular document I want to open, the screen flashes back to home screen. How can I get the info on the document?  This happened after I imported a photo from my photos located on the iPad.  I don't need the photo, just the document.

    Perhaps the photo was very large and you do not have much memory free on your iPad?
    If you have a Mac and are running iCloud, perhaps you can try opening it on the Mac.

  • Only able to edit one page from a project then must shut down to open another

    Hi!  I have upgraded to Muse CC 2014 on a Windows 7 machine, when I open a project I can only open a single page from the planning window. It will not allow me to open another page when double clicking on the page icon. If I close the first page opened I no longer have the ability to open any pages for editing. I have to FORCE QUIT Muse and reopen to edit a single page every time. Anybody have this issue and a fix? I already have went through the usual CC uninstall al reinstall so please do not suggest it.

    Thank you for providing your file. It's been very useful. Sorry for the slow reply. Adobe in the US shuts down for the 4th of July week, so the Development Team's back from leave today.
    We've isolated the cause of this and are working on an update to address it. In your file this bug is triggered by groups that contain HTML Insert objects which are slow to draw. The header on your master page contained multiple groups with HTML embed code objects. I've ungrouped those and that avoids this bug without changing the appearance of your pages. I've sent your file back to you using Adobe Send. You should receive an e-mail notification shortly, if you haven't already.
    Now that we are aware of the problem and the cause, we're actively working on an update to address it. In the meantime, if you avoid grouping HTML objects with other objects in Muse you should avoid this bug.
    Very sorry for the inconvenience. A huge THANK YOU for sending us your file.

    I think I finished installing Mountain Lion, and am at the "log in" page with the Mountain Lion icon, but I cannot do any of the functions on screen. That is, I cannot log in, sleep, restart, or shut down. I am running it on an Early 2009 Macbook Pro, which is said to have the capabilities of running Mountain Lion.

    ...Is there any way I can install a partition that runs snow leopard on my early 2011 MB pro with what I have (new SSD, New RAM, Current version Lion running, no external drive, lack of original snow leopard disks [I lost them ] and the general 10.6.3 snow leopard boot disks)...
    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

    i have just downloaded the latest update for Pages on my iPad and now it can no longer open up documents in iCloud and then just shuts down. What The.

    Before the reset quit Pages like this:
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.

    My iPad 2 is shutting down when I try to email a PDF I have created in pages. Why? Very frustrating....

    That is very interesting in that my iPhone was exhibiting similar behavior with the "blue screen of death" with Pages a few months ago. An update for Pages came out and when I installed the update, the problem disappeared.
    Is Pages completely updated on your iPad? Do you use iCloud with Pages? If you use iCloud, try turning it off. settings>Pages>Use iCloud>Off. You will not lose your documents since they will still be in iCloud even if you turn that off on your iPad.
