Pages tells me I need to upgrade to 5.0 to open documents from iCloud.  When I go to the mac app store it says pages 5.0 is installed, but Pages says it's running 4.3.  I just want to open documents on my mac that were created on my iPad.

Pages tells me I need to upgrade to 5.0 to open documents from iCloud, but the mac app store says its already installed and won't let me upgrade.  when I check the version of pages I am running it says 4.3.  I just want to be able to open documents on my mac that were created on my iPad.  How can i get Pages 5.0?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You already have got Pages 5.0, but you still have got Pages 4.3, so Pages 4.3 is being opened instead of the newest version, being this the reason why you get a message telling you to update Pages to the most recent version.
If you don't need the old version, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete the old Pages icon or move it to an external drive. I don't recommend you to do this, as users are complaining about the lack of features of the new version.
Instead, what you can do is to put the new Pages icon in the Dock by dragging it from the Finder window to the Dock, so you can open the new Pages version from the Dock and you can open all your documents with it after opening the application

  • App to upgrade on Mac App Store with email that is not mine

    Hello to everyone,
    I have an update of a free app on Mac App Store called "Itsy". However, i never install that app through Mac App Store or by other means! When i try to install it through Mac App Store i can't do it and Mac App Store ask me for the password of the following email "**@**.de"! This email it is not mine and i don't know how i get it! I buy my new MacBook Pro last week on an Apple Store! Anyone can tell me how i solve it? Or i should make a fresh install?
    <Edited by Host>

    @moebis tell me one thing. I admit that on other mac i used FaceTime 1.0 app downloaded from a website. However, this mac is new and i just upgrade it from a Time Machine backup. When i restart my mac, FaceTime was 1.0.2 not 1.0! Do you think that some information from FaceTime 1.0 stay in my mac even FaceTime was upgraded to 1.0.2? I removed FaceTime 1.0.2 with AppDelete (I bought it ) but this problem persist! I just solve my problem making a fresh install. However, it is strange because, if it was a problem of Mac App Store, my problem shouldn't disappear, but the fact is that it really disappear! But i have another question. If it was a problem from FaceTime 1.0, why when i delete FaceTime using AppDelete this problem don't disappear?

  • Can I run Mac App Store programs from an external drive?

    I have a 13" MacBook Air (128); but I have tons of programs that I have purchased from the Mac App Store, especially large training video programs. Even though I don't have a shortage of drive space yet, I certainly could find myself in that position if I keep ALL my programs and data on the flash drive. I really don't need to keep all these on my main drive; but I would like to be able to run one when I need it. Is there any problem with moving the program from APPLICATIONS to an external drive and running it from there? Should I leave the support files & folders (preference & application support) on the flash drive?
    THANKS.

    Thanks for your help on this.
    The MacBook Air is a joy; but the limited drive space is the only caveat. I really should have spent the extra money on the 256 gb flash drive; but at the time I was in the mood to go minimalist. Unfortunately that doesn't work well for me.
    I have already moved all my music to iTunes Match and moved the backups to the external drive. I also keep most of my archive data on the 3 tb external drive. It's mostly those training video programs which are about a gig each that I want to move to the external drive ... ones I would not use that often ... so it's nice to know I can do that.
    THANKS AGAIN.

  • I can't download Pages from Mac App Store

    I have been having some trouble in dowloading Page from Mac App Store.
    I had dowloaded and used before, but recently I reinstalled the Mac OS.
    When the download reachs amost 10MB, it restarts a few times and gives me the message: "Pages failed to download. Use the Purchases page to try again."
    I tried both two following methods:
    1 - open $TMPDIR/../C* and deleted com.apple.appstore
    2 - Quit App Store.
    Open Terminal.
    Execute this: defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
    Launch App Store.
    At the Menu bar, there should be a "Debug".
    Click on that and press "Reset Application"
    Restart App Store.
    But none of them worked for me.
    Can anyone help me?
    Cheers.

    Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Rebuild the Spotlight index. If you try to search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, there will be an indication that indexing is in progress.
    Step 2
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.

  • HT4623 i am running ios 7.1 on my iphone 5s but when i connect to itunes it tells me i need to upgrade the phone to itunes version 11.11 I cant seem to do this

    i am running ios 7.1 on my iphone 5s but when i connect to itunes it tells me i need to upgrade the phone to itunes version 11.11 can anyone advise

    You need to upgrade the version of iTunes on the syncing computer, not the version on the iPhone.

  • Why does a document tell me it needs to be opened in newer version of Pages yet when I check the Mac App store I already have it upgraded

    I can't seem to open Pages documents and am told "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document" however, I have checked for upgrades in Mac App store and am told all apps are up to date.   When I open Pages and check "about Pages" it says I have 4.3.  What gives?

    It sounds like you already have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 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 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud 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.
    Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • I just purchased a software upgrade.  I received an e-mail that says, "To install your software, you simply launch the Mac App Store, click "Redeem"• found under Quick Links and enter your content code(s)." How do I do this??

    I just purchased a software upgrade to OSX Lion.  I received an e-mail that says, "To install your software, you simply launch the Mac App Store, click "Redeem"• found under Quick Links and enter your content code(s).  How do I "launch the Mac App Store?"

    Assuming you are running OS X 10.6.6 or later (10.7.x Lion, 10.8.x Mountain Lion or 10.9.x Mavericks), go to the Apple Menu (top left-hand corner of the screen)>App Store and it should become clear from there.

  • How do I get Mac App Store on my computer? I have 10.5.8 OS. If I need to upgrade first how do I do that? It says that my software is updated.

    How do I get Mac App Store on my iMac? I have 10.5.8 OS. If I need to upgrade first how do I do that? It says that my software is updated.

    And once you get Mac OS X 10.6 installed, update it to at least 10.6.6 which was the first version to include the Mac App Store (the latest version is 10.6.8). The DVD you get will almost certainly be only 10.6.3. You can update from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 via Software Update, or you can download a standalone Combo updater (Support tab above, then Downloads).

    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac".  Write down what it says about "version"and report that here.  Now continue to "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
    If you have a PPC Mac you cannot sync your idevice without a newer computer.  See the end of this post for options.
    If it says you have an Intel Mac you can upgrade to Snow Leopard, but check system requirements first:
    Snow Leopard 10.6 Technical Requirements - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    You can buy Snow Leopard at:
    Snow Leopard disc source - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    After installing run the updater to 10.6.8, then upgrade iTunes.
    Jan. 2014 post by Kappy on doing all this: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24599931
    Options if you cannot upgrade:  iTunes Store purchases can already be downloaded directly. Use iTunes Match to put non-Store music in iCloud, then download to your device from there.  Backup your device directly to  iCloud over a wireless connection.  Photos can be downloaded from the Camera Roll using iPhoto or Image Capture.

  • The App store stopped accepting my credit card all of a sudden. It says that my credit card is "not supported by the Chilean app store"... The credit card is Chilean and was working just fine. Help!

    This is the second time this happens. I was living in the US until April 2011. I moved to Chile and kept using the App Store and the iTunes Store just fine with my US-issued credit card. However, when I accessed my Apple ID from a different device, the store stopped recognizing my credit card information and migrated my ID to the "Chilean" App & Itunes Store (significantly less apps & music... but anyway). I started using my Chilean credit card on the App and iTunes store with no issues. I supposed that the devices catched that I was no longer in the US and that I had to be transferred to the related store (which I think is fine), and that because I was now in the Chilean store I needed to use a Chilean-issued credit card (which doesn't make sense to me, I still don't understand why Apple stopped accepting my US credit card if it is accepted everywhere else in the world online and offline!).
    However, yesterday I bought something from my iPad and when today I went to use the app store from my iPhone the SAME THING happened. I got the same request to "update my billing information", I confirmed my Chilean credit card info and, surprise! "Your credit card is not supported by the Chilean app store"...
    I don't get it. If I didn't get it the first time, I ended up accepting it an getting over it because ok, I moved to another country and my account was migrated, etc. But now, it doesn't recognize my local credit card in my local store! I tried both my local Visa and my local MasterCard, and none of them worked. It looks like my account will not accept ANY credit card, no matter wheter I try to update the info from my mobile devices, on iTunes, on the Mac App Store, etc.
    It has been impossible for me to find any information on what causes this and on how to solve it, and so far I hadn't had any trouble with Apple and hadn't need any support before, but now that I need URGENT SUPPORT, I've come to realize that THEY SUCK at being accessible! There's no way I can contact them! So, please help me!!!!! I need urgent help!!!!
    Thanks and sorry for the very long post.

    Same thing happened to me with my peruvian credit card in the peruvian app store, I want to buy an app, but it says that my credit card is "not supported in the Peruvian app store"
