Pages somehow vanished off my computer. When trying to open a Pages document it says, "no default application" Any ideas where it went and how can I get it back?

The Pages program seems to have vanished off my computer. I can't open any of my Pages documents. It says " no default application" I've tried to search ffor it and there's nothing. Is there an advanced search I could try or some other thing I can do to find it? Thanks for any help.

Hi msmuffy,
You can re-download it from the App Store: Open the App Store and make sure you are signed on with the Apple ID you used to purchase Pages originally. Click on the Purchases tab at the top of the screen. You should see Pages listed. If it says "Download" next to it, then you can re-download it. If it says "Installed" it means that it is somewhere on the Mac, so go to the Finder and do a Search from there.
Cheers,
GB

  • I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

    I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

    Did you download them direct to your IPad or to your computer. If so unless you have synced your iPad with your computer since you downloaded they are still on your Ipad unless you deleted them or if they were rentals the time ran out.
    To check on your iPad launch the iPod APP on your Ipad  if a movie listing does not show  then click on the iPad button under your library list column and it should then show your movies etc
    Or launch the Video App and look for them there
    if you have downloaded them on your computer they will show up in iTunes the cartoons i suspect will show under TV and the Movie under Movies.
    A rented item expires 30 days after you rent it or 24 hours after you begin playing it, whichever comes first. Expired rentals are deleted automatically. After you transfer a rental to your iPad etc, it is removed from your iTunes library.
    Outright puchases are obviously yours to keep.
    Hope this helps

  • When playing a slide show there are many nonvisible photos.  They appear as "image cannot be edited. The original is offline."  Where is it and how can I get it back into my photo library?

    How can I get all my images to show in my photo library?  When playing a slide show some of my photos have a message "Image Cannot Be Edited.  The original is offline." 

    What version of iPhoto?
    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • There is a friends on chat window on Fcebook home page that is missing. Where is it and how can I get I back?

    On the home page in Facebook, on the bottom of the left hand corner there is supposed to be a friends on chat window that shows green dots and pictures of my friends that are on chat. Mine is no longer there and i was hoping that you can help me in finding it and putting it back.

    Hi Patricia, the theory behind clearing cookies is that they may include obsolete or corrupted information. There's no way to know which one poses the problem, so it's usually best to clear them all. Facebook will set new cookies when you log back into the site.
    Regarding the chat windows, I don't why the two accounts would work differently. Perhaps it is a setting within Facebook?

  • I'm using my iPod classic as hard drive to transfer the music to my reinstalled computer but the file "iTunes" is missing. Where is it and how can I get it back?

    I had a virus on my Windows Vista PC so I had to reinstall the whole system. With this I also got an upgrade to Windows 7. Now I want to use the iPod classic to put the music back on the PC. According to the explanations on Apple support you have to drag the iTunes file on the iPod to the My Music file. Unfortunately there is no iTunes file on the iPod. It does work fine though and I can listen to all the music. I have to say that before I deleted the hard drive fro the PC I forgot to switch the iPod to manual sync. It was psooible though to do that with the new installed iTunes without erasing the music on the iPod. Can anybody help? I really wouldn't like to loose the countings and playlists.
    Thank you

  • I have been purchasing songs on itunes for a year. I just got a new computer and I synched my iphone to it. I had over 100 songs, now I have only 10. Where did my music go and how can I get it back?

    I have been purchasing songs from itunes for the past year. I have over 100 songs. I recently got a new computer and I synched the iphone to it. I can't find 90% of my music. Where is it and how can I get it back? I checked itunes under purchased and it only shows 13 songs. Please help.

    You can only sync with one computer. When you synced to the new computer it would have erased it and synced what was on the new computer.
    You always need to have a backup, an iPhone is not a storage device.
    When you get a new computer you need to transfer your library before syncing
    If you don't have a backup you may be out of luck
    The only thing would be if you're in the US and have access to the iCloud beta to reload purchases

  • Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset.

    Lightroom opens fine initially, but when trying to open a different catalog it will go through the process but never reopen again. I can't get it to open at all until the computer is reset. I have been using Lightroom 4 for 18  months now and this problem just started happening in the last month.

    No error messages. It acts totally normal but just never reopens when I try to reopen a new catalog. I create a catalog for each of my clients....I have done this since I started using lightroom as it seems tidy to me. But, I have never had this problem until now. I am using a pc and vista and Lightroom 4. Thanks.

  • First question - I have Acrobat 9 on my desktop and the license seems to have been messed up.  I tried to download and fis but I asked me for a disk.  I don't have any idea where the "disk" is.  Can I get the license update without that disk?

    Second question - In anticipation of not being able to do that, I bought (at University bookstore) Acrobat XI Pro - do I need to uninstall the 9.0 Pro version before I try to install the XI version?

    If you still have your serial number for Acrobat Pro there is a link to the installer here:  Download Acrobat products | 9, 8

  • When I delete domething on Mac Mail it automatically deletes it on my Yahoo server.  Why and how can I get it left on the server?

    When I delete something on Mac Mail it automatically is deleted on the Yahoo server.  Why and how can I stop this happening and leave it on the server?

    I believe that that is how IMAP accounts are designed to work, if you delete an email from a computer or device then it will be deleted from the server. If possible you could try setting up the account as a POP account in the Mail program and you should then get a 'remove copy from server' tickbox (which will need to be unticked) on the account's Advanced tab in Mail > Preferences.

  • All my bookmarks and personalized start page are GONE. Where are they and how do I get them back?

    I opened Firefox & was told it had automatically updated to 3.5 (yes that is what it said). ALL my bookmarks, my bookmarks toolbar and my other two toolbars are GONE, my personalized home page is GONE. How do I get them back? VERY frustrated with Firefox which has been crashing a LOT lately, and several other updates have taken away my personalized home page. Why can we not keep these even tho you update?? Loosing my bookmarks is NOT ok with me. My Xmarks and delicious are Missing... HELP!
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == Firefox auto updated to version 3.5. It was ok yesterday

    OK. It was Firefox 3.5.x that was on autoupdate (which I stopped now so I have to be asked before updating) on a Mac Book Pro (31/2
    yr. old but updated with more Memory & larger hard drive (not sure I have that right, but now is 3GB Memory and 250GB hard drive Intel Core 2Duo). Using several places from the link cor-el (above) gave me, I finally found a copy of my bookmarks and have them back.
    While trying to find my personalized homepage, I went to a google add-on for finance after adding several other items to a new inprogress homepage, and out of the blue, my old homepage shows up when I click on the google finance gadget! I could not believe it. And all my other stuff was on there. I immediatley saved it to my Bookmarks, to my idisk and remade it my homepage for igoogle.
    Now, how do you explain that? Anyway, I am now back and good to go, just scared to update to the FF 3.6x version for fear of similar problem.
    The only thing missing now is the 2nd toolbar that I don't remember what it was so guess I won't miss it. The other was the NPR one which I got back from NPR website.
    Thanks folks!

  • Missing mscrv80.dll file when updating itunes.  what is it and how can I get it back?

    When updating itunes the new installation said I was missing mscrv80.dll file.  I've reinstalled but still doesn't work.  How can it be repaired?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • When I open a new tab, why do I see 12 previous sites in a dropdown, and how can I get rid of these?

    When I open a new page in a new tab, as soon as I type the first w of www, a drop-down menu of 12 sites that I have visited at some point previously appears. These sites seem to be totally random and remain the same no matter how often I clear my history etc.
